According to The All Music Guide, Steve Vai describes this album as a rock fable: “Real Illusions: Reflections is the first part of a multilayered menagerie of vignettes based on the amplified mental exaggerations of a truth-seeking madman who sees the world… Oh, never mind.” Our folio features note-for-note transcriptions of this axemaster’s amazing playing on all 11 tracks, including: Building the Church • Firewall • Freak Show Excess • K’m-Pee-Du-Wee • Yai Yai • and more.
