Steve was very specific in the transcriptions.
To make the transcriptions, Dave had received videos from Steve Vai on how to play the songs on guitar exactly the way they were recorded. The book also features photos for each individual song, a backstory by Steve Vai on how he made the album, all the equipment he used, and short descriptions for each song on the album.ĭave Whitehill was the lead transcriber. Furthermore, it's one of the few Hal Leonard books to not feature their name on the cover. Love Secrets also has partial transcriptions of the keyboard and drum parts.
It is also one of the few Guitar Recorded Versions books to also feature Transcribed Scores, as the songs Liberty and Answers have transcriptions for each other instrument that plays in the songs. He provided the scores parts for Liberty and Answers. It was also one of the few Hal Leonard books that the original artist worked on, as Steve Vai helped with the transcriptions in this book. It contains full tablature and notation for guitar for each song found on the album.
