I have one video which is blocked in certain countries. I got rid of Warner's claim via fair use but it doesn't hold true everywhere. There have been numerous entities trying to lay claim to it (a Fred Astaire sequence from a flick) who definitely do not own it at all. At that time there was a lot of abuse of Youtube like this.
Here's an amazing thing. This is from Civilization Phaze III, composed at the Synclavier with one supposes a really minimal contribution from Ensemble Modern live/recorded to the hard drive.
This live group doing it... well there's bas relief if you get my meaning, which doesn't happen with the Synclavier. And certain instruments are kind of suggested or the samples weren't quite there and there's a larger dynamic range (with full-on trombones etc). But this is such a radical piece that the live orchestra seems hyperreal or surreal. This translation represents something actually new in the world of music, there are - confer Stravinsky and perverted orchestration - perverted or hyped-up dynamics and exchanges in timbre that were conceived for a machine and probably considered quite beyond getting people with horns and drums and suchlike to even do. And it's interesting to hear someone on a drum kit - and the percussionists with ratchets, slapstick and other gestures - do the Synclavier drums which again amounts to a hyperreal/surreal impression.
But rhythmically this is highly unusual to say the least.

He wanted to make sure young Stevie was roadable.
There is another story where Frank about made Vai cry with 'I'm not even sure if you're roadable!' after some mistakes.
