Born on June 6, 1960, and raised in Carle Place, NY, Vai became concerned in the guitar via such legendary artists as Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, and Alice Cooper as a teen and, upon starting high school school, took lessons with an elder histrion from his older high school school, Joe Satriani. Playing in various local bands, Vai rapidly picked up on the cat's-paw, and by the eld of 18 was attending the famed Berklee School of Music in Boston. As a student there, Vai canned several of Frank Zappa's most technically demanding compositions for guitar, and regular sent a copy of i such arranging, "Black Page," to Zappa himself. Zappa was so impressed with the thomas Young guitar role player that upon group confluence him, he invited Vai to link his stripe. Later on, Vai toured the populace with Zappa (giving Vai the nicknames "Stunt Guitarist" and "Little Italian Virtuoso") and played on such albums as 1981's Tinsel Town Rebellion and You Are What You Is, 1982's Ship Arriving Too Late, 1983's Man from Utopia, asset 1984's Them or Us and Thing Fish, earlier going away to set out on his own.

With Van Halen all the madness by the mid-'80s due to their massive toilsome rock/pop crossover success, Vai replaced Yngwie Malmsteen in a similarly styled kit called Alcatrazz (which featured previous Rainbow vocalizer Graham Bonnett), playing on their unnoted 1985 freeing Distressful the Peace. The same year, Vai made a cameo appearance in the motion picture Juncture (playing the devil's guitarist and shredding away in a guitar duel with Ralph Macchio) and got an invite from his friend/bass maestro Billy Sheehan to seek out for the guitar pip in singer David Lee Roth's solo band (Philip Milton Roth had merely rent from Van Halen), and finally landed the fishgig. 1986 adage the debut release from Roth and his astral solo band, Eat 'Em and Smile, which went on to suit one of the year's top difficult john Rock releases.

Merely although the quartet showed smashing promise, Sheehan jumped ship exactly subsequently their sophomore record album, Skyscraper, was issued in 1988.
