Release Date 31st January
G3 “REUNION LIVE” reunites three guitar giants for a sonic celebration that renews a tradition stretching back to 1996.
Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, and Eric Johnson inaugurated the G3 concept 28 years ago which put them on stage together for the first time ever.
The G3 tour line up changed over the years, but in 2024, the original G3 reunited for a sold-out run of dates in the US. That experience is embodied in G3 “Reunion Live” a(nd much more than “just” a live album).
The format of the tour is mirrored here with a full set from each guitarist with their own band, followed by a full-on jam featuring all three. Each Deluxe Edition artist LP will be a different color and the “jam” LP will be a splatter combination of all three. Fans get a “new” album from each artist plus a new LP from a certified supergroup, The Media Book will also be divided into separate artist and jam chapters.
The individual repertoire is comprised of signature tunes from each guitarist such as Joe’s “Sahara,” Steve’s “For the Love of God” and Eric’s “Cliffs of Dover.” The encore jam features covers from the likes of Hendrix and Clapton.
