Title: for sure among my top 20 albums ever
Product review: I am not sure if this is the right album for fans of early Van Halen, but it certainly shows an interesting aspect of Steve Vai's work. It is his ability to turn a straight forward rock/pop album into something special. "Skyscraper" is not as weird and wild as some of Steve Vai's solo work, but he puts in that extra special edge and feel. The recording has been criticized often for its many overdubs and technicality. A matter of taste...I like it that way - cerainly nothing for the average grunge-one-take "listen, I-can't play" person.If you like this, check out one of the later Whitesnake albums with Steve Vai as guitarist."Skyscraper" is one of those albums that go well with driving into a sun set with an open roof and an open sky.
