If Steve Vai ever complains of a bad back, he'll only have himself to blame. As a totally junk guitar player (me, not him), there's so much going here it's really cool.

Interesting that vacuum tubes used right on the instrument. Apparently they are now used in music. Kind of like the resurgence of LP's. We had no idea how much better music was back in the day....

That's on me. I always remember on Saturday. I could say I was also a member of a faith that prohibited any sort of work or computer use on the Sabbath but the reality is that I have the memory of a cockroach. That is, until Saturday. So, what the heck. It's Monday and I have months of catch up to do.
I met Niko in Paros. He was a school mate of Dimitri, our correspondent and my host, who came to the US during college to pursue his passion for guitar. Niko ended up at Rhodes College in Memphis and was soon gigging around town. Eventually, he started doing session work which led to producing and ended up owning a recording studio. He's now retiring and moving back to Greece with his American wife. Super nice fellow and this clip shows off his incredible guitar chops.

How I'll always think of Meat Loaf– (spoiler alert: it doesn't end well for Eddie).
Things I did not know: on stage, Meat (Mr. Loaf) played both Eddie and Dr. Scott
NIce article about his stage version and then the movie: https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/meat-loaf-should-have-had-two-parts-in-the-rocky-horror-picture-show/
That time Meat Loaf was a softball coach: https://deadspin.com/meat-loaf-was-my-softball-coach-5821391

I didn’t notice the harp until watching the Hydra video, thanks for posting
From the Fancy like guy.
I love the production on this song - evokes memories of Phish/Porcupine Tree - just supports her voice so well.
