David Lee Roth formed a top notch talent band after getting kicked out of Van Halen.At the time I recognized Steve Vai could play guitar fast like Eddie Van Halen.I had no idea until recently that he played for Frank Zappa who basically pushed Vai into what he was in 1986.https://youtu.be/Rv5nOVNvRiIAnd EVH used to hang out at Zappa's house.

I never think of Los Angeles as a real place. All those 70s & 80s American musicians lived there and knew each other.I don't think of them as real people. EVH showed young Dweezel Zappa some stuff too.

@neanderthalsnavel here's one of my favorite DLR tunes. Maybe it's just me but it's got a decent serving of nostalgia. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=FxhA5GGP7xY&si=r7_3tzukdV65JMAf
