1552 Steve Vai - Bad Horsie

1552 Steve Vai - Bad Horsie

From: Alien Love Secrets, Year: 1995
Genre: Hard Rock

I was listening to this song the other day; I thought I'd already picked it before. I checked and apparently I hadn't yet, so today I will.
As with the majority of his work, this track showcases his virtuosity and inventiveness with the guitar. I love the thunderous, gritty, and bassy chords Steve Vai used in this one.
You can actually hear this song in an embryonic state in the '86 Ralph Macchio film Crossroads at the beginning of the guitar duel between him and Steve Vai, who plays the part of the Devil's guitarist Jack Butler. The entire guitar duel scene from the movie can be found here on YouTube.

Also, I happened to notice that Bill, (Heuristics Inc.), has fired up his song-a-day blog once again.
