Steve Vai will release his shelved ’90s rock album “Vai /Gash” in January 2023. He wrote it within two weeks in a “stream of consciousness” in 1991 to fulfil his desire to have a particular kind of music to listen to when he was riding his Harley Davison Motorcycle with his friends. “Johnny Gash Sombrotto” was one of those friends, and he turned out to be a remarkable rock vocalist, and sings on the record. We caught up with Vai in December 2022 to chat about the album and who Gash was. We also couldn’t resist asking him about playing with Whitesnake at what was, probably, their final performance.
