FIRE GARDEN (1996, Epic):

Maybe my favorite; this record is mature and substantial in terms of musical content. I don't know if one record best represents what I do musically, but this album comes close.

　　可能是我最喜欢的一张专集; 这次的录音在音乐所要表达的内容上显得更成熟和重要,我不确定是否做一张最好的专集意味着音乐上走向成功,但这张专集已经很接近了(大概指音乐上成功的一个新阶段)

　　编者补充:这张专集给我最大的困惑就是,如此欢快的曲子为什么会叫CRYING MACHINE? 初次听到这个名字的时候我想, 这一定是一首洋溢的重金属质感的MOLEDY,而且会很压抑, 带者不满沉重的VAI式的嚣叫(如果BAD HORSIE)一样, 结果却出乎我的意料! 除了开头的哇哇大叫外,就一直欢快的进行着,仿佛他不是一台超载的机器,不断在CRYING和抱怨!而是在运行的过程中因为充实和满足而CRYING! 希望我是误解了他的创意! 这的确是一台快乐的机器, 而我却偏要把它想的很悲! 瞥开这个, 这的确是一首能调动人的热情的曲子！2.Bangkok 少数我喜欢的异国风格的段子,也有可能对泰国比较熟悉,所以偏爱这首歌曲.3. Aching Hunger,更罕见的VAI演唱的比较好的曲子, 我一直不能接受VAI唱歌的声音, 觉得他只适合当VOCAL. (所以各位不要小看乐队的主唱啊,即使他不会什么乐器)这次ACHING HUNGER的编曲很适合他的声音.有一种野性的感觉.

ULTRA ZONE (1999, Epic):

Elements from all my other records pop up here. It's a return to the innocence of FLEX-ABLE, has the compositional elements of PASSION AND WARFARE and has a lot of substance like FIRE GARDEN.

　　我所有其他专集受欢迎的元素集结在这里, 似乎是返回到最初FLEX-ABLE那种原始的状态, 它有很多PASSION AND WARFARE的结合元素,也有很多其他的感觉,就象在FIREGARDEN里.

　　编者补充:这张专集是VAI在父亲去世后完成的一张, 前几年在印度的游历经历让专集充满东方韵味, 包括收录了印度风格的<BLOOD AND TEARS>和日本歌手松本宏孝合作的<ASIAN SKY>, 以及由自己妻子客串OS的<JIBBBOM>,日本版则多了一首写给母亲的<SELFLESS LOVE>. 我想提的是这里的一手WINDOWS TO THE  SOUL, 这是一手曲子风格上走FOR THE  LOVE OF THE  GOD的宏观路线,展现神秘和滂湃的气势! 开头的英语和结尾引人入胜! 值得一提的是保加里亚现场时候在表演上画的心思....那时候VAI把JEM平放在地上,只有一只脚踩者无限延音,然后缓缓脱下上衣盖住哇哇叫的琴,这时.就在琴身卡然而止的时候观众爆发出雷鸣搬的掌声! 让人心理着实激动了一把! 这个举动(还有VAI更多在表演上所做的创举)不能理解他的含义, 但可以感受到这份精神并为只震撼也是一种快乐!

SEVENTH SONG (2000, Epic): 

That whole record represents a certain frame of mind as opposed the vast mood swings of my full-on records. Those sweet melodies are a musical representation of my desire to become closer with my own spiritual nature.

　　整张专集点燃了我内心的某处强烈的愿望之火, 那就是表明我之前所有专集的庞大的精神观. 这些甜美的旋律用音乐的角度反映我内心深处的渴望, 那就是用我性格最真执的一面和大家更亲近起来

　　编者补充:7是VAI的幸运数字,VAI在每张专集内都会收录柔歌,基本排在第7首,也是整张专集的亮点, 这张专集收录3首新歌(BONS TRACK)外其余均为以前专集的第7首.这次的第7首是新歌melissa's garden,可见VAI对这首歌的重视程度,这首歌曲一反以往激烈的开场, 用一个近似键盘的(或者是铃当)的声音开场, 期间经历舒缓激烈等可分为几个阶段,结尾处带有一种童话色彩的桥段为整篇乐曲增色不少.的确是具有童话色彩的迷幻garden.令一首BOSTON RAIN MELODY也是编者的最爱,开场就是雷声的效果音, 中间的点弦更弹出雨点滴滴答答的感觉. 整首歌曲风格类似TENDER SURRENER,先抑后扬, 结构紧凑, 十分耐听.结尾再次用雷声效果收场,适合雨夜晚上一个人静静聆听!
