Steve Vai's 1999 offering is The Ultra Zone, a mixture of vocal and instrumental tracks, with the slight edge in audio time given over to instrumental numbers. Q Magazine has stated, "...Vai's most leftfield to date, as he lets his imagination (and fingers) run free over 13 largely experimental tracks....guitar aficionados will no doubt be marveling at Vai's mastery..." The Ultra Zone represents a true sound journey featuring everything from Eastern/Middle Eastern-like vocals ("The Blood & Tears"), Vai vocals ("Voodoo Acid", "The Silent Within"), ripping guitar ("Jibbom", "Oooo", "Asian Sky"), spoken word preludes ("Windows To The Soul", "The Ultra Zone"), brass (trumpets and trombones in "Lucky Charms"), triple-neck guitar ("Fever Dream") and Asian psuedo-pop ("Asian Sky"). Did we leave anything out... Instrumental Guitar (Electric (Heavy)/Hard Rock), total running time, 68:50 - Steve Vai @ iTunes!
