Steve Vai and Al Di Meola Rehearse "Race with Devil on Spanish Highway"

Steve Vai and Al Di Meola Rehearse "Race with Devil on Spanish Highway"

On April 26, virtuoso guitarist Al Di Meola made a stop at the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, California, for one of his typically great shows. As a bonus, the show was topped off by a special encore appearance by Steve Vai.

For the show's encore, the guitarists performed a blazing version of Di Meola’s “Race with Devil on Spanish Highway,” from 1977's Elegant Gypsy.

You can see a fan-filmed video of that performance below. The video above, however, is a more interesting clip of Vai and Di Meola rehearsing the song at Vai’s Harmony Hut studio a few hours before the show.

It’s a treat to see their fretwork up close!
