Steve Vai - Knappsack
• Steve Vai - "Knappsack"
New song "Knappsack" is out now! Stream/download it here: smarturl.it/knappsack
On Dec 29, 2020, Steve had corrective surgery on his right shoulder. He believes that sitting while playing the guitar and hunching his shoulder for close to 50 years may have compromised the tendons, and then doing chest flies (work out exercise) and overextending did it in. He had two tendons that were torn all the way through, and a bicep tendon torn from the bone and shredded. Then he found Dr. Thomas Knapp, (Santa Monica) perhaps the leading cuff surgeon in the USA. Dr. Knapp fixed Steve up really nice and set him up in a sling that Dr. Knapp created called “The Knappsack.” Steve wore his Knappsack for 4 weeks, and it can be seen being worn in this video.
Months before the shoulder surgery, Steve developed trigger finger in his left thumb. This is a condition that is a form of carpal tunnel. His thumb eventually froze, and he was in need of corrective surgery. In January 2021, Steve underwent this surgery that was performed by Dr. David Kulber (Beverly Hills) for which Steve says, “After all of the research I did, I believe he is considered the top hand surgeon out there.”
Both surgeries were successful and Steve was on the mend. But during the recuperation process, while wearing his “Knappsack” and not able to use his right hand, he felt compelled to write and record this track and name it “Knappsack.” Because of Steve’s legato hammering style, performing with one hand was not so alien of an idea to him and when he set out to write and record this track, it flowed beautifully.
"This piece of music was written in a stream of consciousness type approach. The idea hit me and I knew I could do it. The guitar part was written/recorded and filmed first to a click track. I built the melody and chord structures and jotted them down, then I did perhaps 4-5 takes. When this was finished, I had the guitar part and a click. I then set out to decorate the track with all of the other instruments, and I really enjoyed doing this. Hearing a song come to life like this is my favorite aspect of being a musician.
For the most part, perhaps 80-90% of the song, I did not seem to need anything to dampen the strings, but there were a few riffs where I did. I placed a small but dense piece of cloth under the strings at the nut and this helped with some of the unwanted vibration. When editing the final take, the majority of the audio is in sync with the video, but there are some lines that came from alternate takes.
Jumping into something with blind faith will always result in the peak of inspiration when the faith is strong enough. You just have to not make any excuses in your head and all your inspirations will be met beautifully."
Enjoy

He's using several techniques here, hammer ons, pull offs, legato, magic, voodoo, alien techniques, and a hell of a lot of genius!

@@kylesmith261 those that he needs two hands to compete with. Guys like Satriani. I spoke backstage once with Joe and I told him what I always say about him " maybe you're not 'THE BEST' guitarist in the world, but there's nobody 'better' " It's a matter of taste when they get to that level. Joe is still my favorite.

Oh My, You guys are very good to me. I got such a kick out of watching this. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this charming and inspiring video. I'm happy to announce that I'm typing this with 2 hands, ha. You rock... Steve Vai
In fact: Steve Vai recorded an album called "Alien Love Secrets", so probably he is a real alien!!!

Steve Vai 'For the love of God' Live G3 1996. A must listen. I've seen it requested in other Vai reaction video's you've done. Your subscribers give great requests! PS: Do the 9:40 mins version

My favorite version of the song
Steve Vai is a goddamn superhero! My favorite guitarist since I was a boy. Never fails to amaze, push the envelope and just outright floor us!
Steve has been the goat since the 80's! No one is as smooth as Steve!
Legato walking through the mountains wit madness baggy trousers and a knappsack.
read his comment on how he recorded. thats the genius.
It's an interesting story too. His Dr's last name is Knapp .. so he called his arm sling the "Knappsack" .. LOL
Your ending discussion reminds me, you should react to Jason Becker. He's a virtuoso guitarist who developed ALS after his first solo album and is unable to move or speak. He has since released 5 more albums using eye-tracking software.

JOE SATRIANI, who Steve learned from. IS THEE GREATEST GUITAR PLAYER THAT WILL EVER LIVE! Joe also taught Kirk Hammett of MetallicA.
This technique is called "legato". I started playing the guitar almost 25 years ago and this is by far the most difficult stuff i've ever seen. Amazing

I am a big fan of Maiden and Dave Murray who i don't want to compare to Steve... i am not for comparison...so i am saying... Dave is famous for Legato . A very musical difficult technic too and this exibition is indeed musical by Steve Vai !
One of the best guitar player
His guitar is the Pia named after his beautiful wife of many years!. They've been married since the late 80s, I believe!
one of the guitar music gods!!!
Totally unreal, still!! Obviously one of the best ever!
You guys would probably love Allan Holdsworth! This is almost like a love letter to him just from the scales alone. Steve is a big time Allan fan and it really shows here 🫶🏻
Don't mess with the God of Guitar!
Really INCREDIBLE!!! Wow!
This is such a masterpiece!!!!!
One handed and he can still manage to sound amazing, now that's amazing
You guys are one of the most enjoyable reviewers! Such lovies who are passionate about the most amazing artists such as my music colleague @SteveVai… Keep up the great work! -CeeHimself
Vai is often quoted as being unhuman, an alien of some sort cuz he's just THAT GOOD!!!! Holy Shit!!!! :)

MORE STEVE VAI !. Have a look at I'M THE HELL OUTTA HERE-- CROSSROADS GUITAR FESTIVAL, and BLUE POWDER, JIBBOOM, AND SHYBOY from a show I saw in London....Steve vai live at the Astoria London. You've still got to have a look at Steve acting in the 1986 movie CROSSROADS, the scene from the EPIC GUITAR BATTLE between Steve vai and RALPH MACCHIO (THE KARATE KID) best wishes from the UK.
HIM AND JOE SATRIANI ARE THE GOATS MAN
Legend
Hey Guys!!! So.......... In Future Concerts (I'm Praying for).... will he Perform This, Sitting Down and Holding the Strap???? I say THIS WILL be a Fan-Favorite Song when he DOES!!!

dunno if you guys already looked at it but look up his song Candle power! :)
What makes Steve Vai the coolest of all guitarists is the fact that he's not even trying to be cool.
When he worked with Frank Zappa, Frank would introduce him as being on 'Stunt Guitar'. I think that fits rather well. Pretty sure the guitar needs a cigarette after that! 😮

0'36" Honour Steve Vai is a Legend among Music 0'55" We hope Lady Suzi !! 1'15"-1'25" Glad if he is able now . And so on...Happy Mother'S Day for tomorrow . In italy it is going to be ; we celeb...maybe also in the States . From the principle this is the Steve Vai sound . 4'49" Travis immediately recognizes this frickin' passage eheh ! Absolutely spectacular the sound and the technic from 5'20" to 5'32" and from 8'41" to 8'56" . He exeperimentZ with the sonoritieZ GuyZ that is an important aspect ;-) you know my friends
You guys should check out Steve's protégé Yasi Hoffer, I'd recommend "Troubled" or "Sweet Autumn" album version to start as those are older songs of hers. YOU WILL LOVE HER.
The part where you both just stared with jaws open cracked me up....
I want that black PIA model guitar. XD
The Master, Jesus he's out of this world.
I know I'm late to the party here, but I heard the other day that this was primarily improvised on guitar to a click track, then he built the rest of the band around it. Out of this world skills.
Y'all should have seen Vai when he was in Whitesnake and would fuck his guitar as part of his solo piece. There is no one like Steve Vai.
5:57 Steves famous "jack" technique.
Check out Steve's sensei, Joe Satriani, On Peregrine Wings
Guys you have to play some Joe Satriani also, to see how Steve got his style of playing, because Joe Satriani taught Steve how to play his guitar, and Joe is very proud of what Steve has accomplished, also Joe and Steve have played many, many concerts together as the “G3” series of incredible performances by 3 separate guitarists with usually Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and other great guitarists who join Joe and Steve to make up the “G3” concept. “G3” meaning guitar three… Steve Hayes 🇦🇺👍

Steve surpassed Joe in style and substance and I love Joe. He didn’t get his style of playing from him. Holdsworth is a much bigger factor in Steve’s style and yet that style is still only shared by one person. Steve…

There is still only one guitar teacher involved here, and physically that was not holdsworth. If it were holdsworth, I guarantee you that Steve would not be the same artist as he is today. The teacher propelled Steve toward his phenomenal style and I guarantee you that Steve will say that without Joe he would not have been the same player as he is today. Although holdsworth is great, he has never been Steve’s teacher, but one man was! Satch. 🇦🇺@@user-hk7hz9cn7v
Steve Vai is just that bad ass, the action on his guitars is SUPER sensitive, that's how just tapping on frets makes plenty sound without strumming.
Double Guitar by Michael Angelo Batio. Fuego and Blood Tears Champagne by Berried Alive. Moonlight Sonata/For the love of God/Altitudes by Tina S You won't regret it guys.
check out bad horsie this kicks butt this is also a steve vau tune
Since you like his guitar you should check out his video where he shows his collection.
:D :D - the video
prolly called rotator cuff on shoulder and trigger finger is the other won
You said it right, "only Steve Vai" Well maybe Bettencourt and Paul Gilbert could, but Steve is unique.

Bad Horsie. Next. Insane riffs
Steve is an awesome guitarist!!!!! But one aspect of his playing I get annoyed with is his changes in the droning of the bars, like he could be jamming on a harmonious droning lydian bar that I'm buzzing out on, then change to a darker confusing bar of other undesirable notes, like from harmonious emotions to darker confusing emotions, I really dislike that. Satriani does that too sometimes, one minute hes jamming to some beautiful harmonious bar of notes, then all of a sudden the notes of the bar changes to some dark confusing emotions of bar notes, so annoying. Oh well, like they say Where there's a high there's a low. If I was an expert guitarist like them I'd only jam out on a harmonious bar of notes, probably a lydian bar of notes, keep the spirit soaring higher and higher... 🎸 🤘 ROCK ON!!!!!
That's some ridiculous skill. The gain has to be maxed on that guitar so that if you even breathe on the strings they'll ring. It takes some serious precision to not accidentally brush an open string and have it ruin a take. If I tried this, it'd just be a muddy cacophony.
The first time "every bully guy in every teen movie" and "Alissa White-Gluz/mom edition" reacted to Vai they were laughing and mocking his way on stage. Now they wow....typical humanoids.
