Buckle in and enjoy one of the most fun episodes of 'My Classic Album' you'll have the pleasure of listening to as Mike is joined by Evanescence guitarist Jen Majura to chat about Steve Vai's third album 'Sex & Religion'.

Conceived as a group project and released under the band name Vai, 'Sex & Religion' is an extraordinary album that not only introduced the world to Devin Townsend but also introduced a young Jen Majura to the majesty of Steve Vai and helped kickstart her own journey as a guitarist.

How has bass player TM Stevens played an integral role in Jen's musical career?

Which track on the album makes use of the Xavian scale, a musical scale devised by Steve Vai himself?

Why does Jen regularly text Devin Townsend pictures of quokkas?

PLUS: Check out 'Soul Suffer Payment', a track from the self titled debut of Jen's band Something On 11.

An episode not to be missed from 'My Classic Album'.
