Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson and Steve Vai have reunited as G3!
The original lineup behind the tour return with "Reunion Live"!
Out on January 31, 2025, the album features their sold-out 2024 U.S. tour, celebrating the reunion of their first tour in 1996.
The concert includes Satriani's "Sahara", Johnson's "Cliffs Of Dover" and Vai's "For The Love Of God", along with their encore jam of Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton covers.
"Reunion Live" is a full album-length set from each artist, plus the collab, as the deluxe edition features a different colored vinyl for each guitarist, a special splatter LP for the encore jam, and a 64-page photo book, with the full program also on 2 CDs.
"This live album recorded at The Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles captures all the energy of the live performances while shining a spotlight on the ever-evolving art of playing the electric guitar." Joe Satriani said.
G3 started in 1996, and featured guitarists like Yngwie Malmsteen, John Petrucci, Paul Gilbert, and Tosin Abrasi,
"A G3 tour is always an electrifying experience, and this particular G3 tour with Eric and Joe was a career highlight for me. To be able to hit the road with old friends and be in that lit-up environment of the stage and communicate on the deepest musical levels with friends is a privilege and honour, especially with such incredible players as Eric and Joe, who delivered magnificently at these shows." says Steve Vai:
