Vai/Gash

Steve Vai

Stripped-back biker rock recorded in the early 90s. Raw, riff-heavy, and driven by the gravelly vocals of the late Johnny 'Gash' Sombretto.

It's Steve Vai playing straight-up biker rock with a guy who sounds like he eats cigarettes for breakfast.

A high-octane, unpretentious celebration of freedom and friendship on the open road.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The immediate, unpretentious crunch of the opening riff on In the Wind that signals a departure from Vai's usual complexity.
Gash's soulful, grit-flecked scream during the bridge of Busted that channels pure 70s rock energy.
The surprisingly melodic and restrained solo on Flowers of Fire that prioritizes bluesy phrasing over technical shredding.
