GENERATION AXE – The Guitars That Destroyed The World [Blu-spec CD +1] (2019)

The project masterminded by Steve Vai, GENERATION AXE, will release a live recording from the Generation Axe tour, featuring Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, Zakk Wylde, Nuno Bettencourt and Tosin Abasi. Titled “The Guitars That Destroyed the World: Live In China“, the collection culls performances from the tour’s 11-city run in Asia in 2017. This Blu-spec CD with bonus will be available in Japan only.

Said Steve Vai about the Generation Axe show; “The idea was to create a seamless show with one backing band and five completely accomplished and astonishing guitarists that take to the stage in various configurations, performing some of their solo music and merging together as cohesive co-creators of lushly orchestrated guitar extravaganzas.”

Great stuff by great players, very well recorded & mixed.
Highly Recommended
