I had contacted her and she was really exciting to work with. I found the original artwork for Real Illusions it was an existing piece she had done.

вЂњYeah, I found this artist, Andrea Cobb in this magazine, and I just love her work! ThereвЂ™s something ethereal about it and otherworldly, and I contacted her. The artwork of the two album covers underscores this exotic philosophy as well. Maybe change things around and create a linear narrative thatвЂ™s pretty robust.вЂќ The idea was to release three records, each being sort of an instalment of songs not in any particular order, but then eventually come around and bring all the songs together in one package and maybe add another record where itвЂ™s a narrative.

When I set out to do that record, I had a story, a very interesting kind of esoteric story, that I wanted to express through the music, plus bits and pieces from liner notes and whatever, and sort of have the songs be depictions of characters and events through the story.

With this record I wanted to create something that had a little more depth to it, which started with my last record, Real Illusions. I try to come up with an exciting idea that becomes so compelling that I kinda have to bring it into reality, and thatвЂ™s basically the face value. So really, I take the same approach when I make music as I always have. вЂњAnd that has a big effect on the outcome of anything you create. вЂњYou know, as an artist, when you go through life, as with anybody, you have experiences and whatnot that can change your perspective,вЂќ explains Vai, asked what the mission was this record вЂround. And like everything in SteveвЂ™s intellectually challenging body of work, well, a river runs through it. The Story Of Light perpetuates SteveвЂ™s conceptual search for meaning embarked upon within focus on his last album, Real Illusions: Reflection, issued fully seven years ago. And more to his credit, his vast catalogue is one with its own exotic sound, arguably a language or world or infinite universe, with peeps and skronks ranging from a sort of spiritual lilt to a playful heavy metal crunch and everything in-between. STEVE VAI has cultivated a bunch of cool band associations to be sure, but to his credit, heвЂ™s more so carved out a career as one of the most famous solo guitar album and performance guys. Thus, Passion and Warfare is arguably the richest and best hard rock guitar-virtuoso album of the вЂ™80s.FRANK ZAPPA, ALCATRAZZ, DAVID LEE ROTH, WHITESNAKE. His style isnвЂ™t quite as derivative of influences Frank Zappa and Joe Satriani as it was six years earlier on Flex-able while some of VaiвЂ™s sense of humor is still evident on tracks like the cock rock strut of вЂњThe Audience Is Listening,вЂќ it is mostly replaced by a spiritual reflectiveness on ballads like вЂњFor the Love of GodвЂќ and вЂњBlue PowderвЂќ and dignified, committed rockers like вЂњI Would Love ToвЂќ and вЂњLiberty.вЂќ Vai is a more distinguished composer than most of his guitar-shredder contemporaries, and rather than simply showing off his technique, he isnвЂ™t afraid to experiment or take chances in his playing. Widely acclaimed as his best album, Passion and Warfare finds Steve Vai coming into his own as a composer, as well as bypassing vocals almost entirely. For this anniversary release, the album was newly remastered from the original analog tapes, and includes four newly discovered recordings from the album sessions! The album was championed by critics: Guitar Player and Guitar World named it the best album of 1990, and both magazines showered him with individual awards Guitar Player awarded Vai the titles of Best Rock Guitarist for the fi fth year in a row and Best Overall Guitarist for the third year in a row, while Guitar World named him Best Rock Guitarist and deemed вЂњFor the Love of GodвЂќ the yearвЂ™s best guitar solo. Recorded entirely in VaiвЂ™s Mothership home studio, Passion and Warfare represents Steve Vai as a melodic, heavy guitarist with a gift for remarkable composition and a deep desire to convey the mystical and the metaphysical through his every last note.
