1. ...and a cheesy little amp

2. <----------------------------- (1979-1986)

3. The Karate Kid vs. Jack Butler

Game on!

Hal October 7 2005 9:33 AM EDT

1. Joe's Garage - Frank Zappa

2. Steve Vai

3. Crossroads

Number 2 is a real stab in the dark, though

QBBarzooMonkey October 7 2005 9:37 AM EDT

But a very good stab. "How do they connect" is the last part you need to answer.

Steve V played with Zappa? Steve V was the Devil's axe player in Crossroads

From Wiki:
Steve mailed transcriptions of Zappa's songs to him, and after meeting Vai for the first time he was so impressed with the abilities of the young musician, Zappa hired him to do work transcribing his seemingly endless array of experimental symphonic rock.

1. Frank Zappa - Joe's Garage (Acts I, II & III)

2. Steve Vai (holding his "Bad Horsie" JEM Signature Model Ibanez guitar)
