Long-Awaited Steve Vai 'Archives 4' CD To Be Released September 6, 2005

LOS ANGELES (Target Media Group) - Archives Vol. 4 is a collection of songs Steve Vai has contributed to other projects and records including Public Image Ltd., tracks from the Hendrix tribute "In From The Storm" with the London Symphony Orchestra, Whitesnake, and collaboration with Chick Corea from "The Songs Of West Side Story," among others. The CD Booklet features Steve's commentary on each track.

For sheer breathtaking facility on a guitar, Steve Vai is unmatched in the music world. But the things that fascinate and move Vai as an artist soar a million miles beyond the concerns of most archetypal guitar gods. Starting with his ground breaking Passion and Warfare album and throughout the years since, Vai has consistently used music as a microscope peering into the human spirit, with equal attention paid to both the darkest obsessions and the most exalted impulses contained therein. With his solo releases, contributions to film and music scores, and millions of records and concert tickets sold, Steve Vai continues to expand the horizons of modern music.
