Modern primitive
Passion and warfare : 25th anniversary edition

"By deciding to make a new album out of an old one with Modern Primitive, Vai inextricably linked the present and the past. As a consequence the record becomes a paradoxical amalgam: a new album wearing an old one's clothes. Modern Primitive is a transition between Flex-Able and Passion and Warfare, and it is a transition between the Vai of Passion and Warfare and the Vai of 2016".

"... a chopsmeister of the highest order who also possesses a keen ear for tone, a mastery of effects and an adventurous sense of orchestration. His two-CD set ModernPrimitive/Passion And Warfare 25th Anniversary Edition (...) is an astounding document of extreme six-string work covering a wide range of expression.".
