Learn how to play Steve Vai's iconic Jack Butler 'train' riff from the Crossroads movie! Jack Butler's gonna like you...
I'm guessing you, like myself, adore the Crossroads movie. A classic bit of Hollywood magic in the world of guitar and a great intro for some to the truly epic Steve Vai playing the Devil's own axeslinger Jack Butler.
In this lesson I'll show you how to play that Train mimicing riff that Jack Butler plays at the start of the Head Cuttin' Duel. Funnily enough its pretty much the same as the intro to Bad Horsie from Vai's Alien Love Secrets album!
