@angusorvid8840 have you heard 3 sides by Extreme? Specifcally, the last 3 tracks? Nuno wrote every part, symphony and all. None of these cats did that as far as I know. Nuno is on a whole different level.
@@nickmenza2671Lol they're all great, Richie's first 3 instrumental albums are fire and even more impressive is his work with Greg Howe and Vertu if you want fusion stuff.
Richie is so scary good. When he was with Mr. Big I saw him cover a Paul Gilbert solo that Paul taps and he shredding through it without tapping. Just with some crazy hand stretch and was nuts. The guy can play anything.
Indeed, Master Joe Satriani has always been a role model for all guitarists in the world, he always embraces and invites you to play with him... always success to you Master Joe, Nuno and Richie...🔥🔥☕🚬🇮🇩
@@guitarttimman he was in the moment matching the energy around him and doing it very well I thought. I'm a large Satch fan but I'm a huge Richie fan and have watched a ton of live jam session stuff by him. He's a stellar improv guy because he usually even improvises his own solos when playing live and does very well with guys who can think on their feet in the "hey, follow me" style. Joe is more methodical in the way he conceptualizes music and I feel like he still nailed it and the two were very complementary to each other.
@@jopshua4703 Right. But Satch's style is more suited for jazzy prog rock. Richie is more southern based. I think they're both great, but they do have very different styles. It's like apples and oranges.
@@guitarttimman I really would never have considered using that word to describe Richie other than the Telecaster lol. He's got such a broad range of sounds I really can't even corner what I would describe his general solo vibe as.
@@jopshua4703 my point is that the two have very VERY different styles that are absolutely unalike in every imaginable way, and there's no way to compare them. They are both great for what they do.

I've been a fan of Richie Kotzen for many years. I always wanted to see him in G3. This video is sensational. Thanks for publishing. Three guitar gods. But it's impressive how "ordinary" stars Nuno and Kotzen become next to Satriani. It's like Hades and Poseidon compared to Zeus.
I love the 3 of them and they are amazing, but for me Richie has the edge has an all-round player. Maybe he his not as famous as Satriani and Nuno, but if you listen to his discography... just wow!! Besides he is an amazing singer. 🙌🙌
His solo discography is extremely prolific and eclectic, never mind his great "hired gun" work with Mr Big and Poison (he arguably wrote their most mature album native tongue at 21) or collaborative projects like Forty Deuce, Wilson Hawk, or the Winery Dogs. He's been recording all of his own material since like 06' I think? All parts and tracks. Hell of a producer too. He's a gift to all of us if you have the ear to recognize and appreciate the many ways he is just ridiculously talented. His lyrics can seem like they lack depth at times but I feel like it makes them more broadly relatable and I think he's the only person I've ever heard cover Chris Cornell properly when he did Cochise a few years ago at the Tony MacAlpine cancer benefit. Clearly I'm a bit of a fan boy 😂
I have a knack for trivial knowledge. 😂 I wouldn't say I'm anywhere near his biggest fan but I definitely have gone very deep into his catalog for someone who only discovered him 8-9 years ago and hasn't been following him since the shred days. I bet I was still wearing diapers when he got his first big deal. 🤣
I first heard Chype Fluxx on a compilation album and then the collaboration albums with Greg Howe. I was so impressed that I checked a lot of his later solo work and his work with Family something but it never made an impression, it just bored me stiff. In addition to being a world class player he is a world class singer too by the way. I mean, really up there.
Nice. Thanks for sharing! I could watch performances like this all day. As a guitar instructor, Satch is always down for swapping leads and setting the tone for the rest of the round before it circles back to him. He always has something up his sleeve and calls audibles for everyone else to follow up with. Watching him and Steve Vai hoedown is a hoot too. I do have one question for Nuno though: why is it that you always looked baked? No. No need to answer... I already know. Just keep being Nuno (the man is definitely an original and distinctive in his play--- one knows who it is when they hear him!), and make Pakenuga (who knows that one?) and of course, King Edward (may he shred in peace) proud!! Now if you would all please excuse me, I suddenly have this hankering for throwing the headphones on and tapping a cold amp..... (Correct. I am not single!!). Hmmm.... wonder why?
I like how casually Richie already knew where he was going during Joe's lick so he was right on cue when Nuno fumbled that one like he forgot it was his turn for a sec. Not knocking Nuno's technical abilities a bit, he's amazing, but he didn't look anywhere near as comfortable as the other two (and they were much more fluid blending their phrasing styles while still maintaining their own essence). Richie's done too many collaborations with an array of stellar players so you'd be hard pressed to find someone that would make him sweat.
Great mix. JS should get these 2 more often . Different style altogether. And of course not forgetting GG ❤Sweet. And pls not always Vai whom no diff from JS himself IMHO😂
Was given this cassette tape Kotzen Fever Dream in the early nineties..say 1993 and Richie Kotzen was probably only nineteen when that album was released. He's always been phenomenal as was Joe Satriani from the late eighties. But Kotzen has also a brilliant set of pipes!! The man can sing!
@@KickflipGnasty let me preface openly that I am a big fan of the other two and not very knowledgeable about Nuno's catalog because his style doesn't speak to me and feels more like "mindless wanking", but it seems the Nuno fans are wearing rose colored glasses in this comments section. He almost felt out of place to me in this jam but his big fans are acting like he stole the show here (by not fitting in very well).
If you fall in love like I did get ready for a long ride. I was still finding "new to me" stuff he's done like 4-5 years after discovering him and listening to his material almost exclusively (I listen to albums straight through until I almost know every note in my head so I occasionally get a few months of play out of a single album). He's got some stuff he contributed on but his name isn't featured so well (Wilson Hawk, Forty Deuce, and the self translated Gundam Ai Senshi ZxR album which is a super cool Japan only release that I only see available on a used CD that'll pop up on Amazon or old bootleg TH-cam videos. I know nothing about the series but he's huge in Japan so he was playing to his audience with that and I still loved it.
I saw Satriani once and he came up to me and said "Where's Harry Potter??? Where's Harry Potter???" I ran away and went looking for Harry to let him know that Voldemort's after him!
Thankfully, Albert King's song "Goin Down" hasn't grown exhausting over the years. I'm sure star guitar players are thrilled to play the song again in a star-studded jam.

Traducir texto con la cámara I never thought I would see these three geniuses together, only Paul Gilbert and Steve Vai are missing and my top 5 favorite guitarists would be complete on stage
Nuno is set apart because he has his own style. The old guys took from blues or jazz. Nuno is a mash of everything under the sun, my all time favorite player!
Richie's style leans towards a jazz fusion vibe when he's improv soloing but you really can't pin him down with one style if you're familiar with his catalog (and a lot of it changed when he ditched the pick and started developing his sort of shred fingerstyle). It takes a while to get through his discography, I think he's approaching 30 solo albums now and probably about 20 are new releases, about a third are compilations or remakes that are more suitable for touring than the original studio versions a younger man recorded. Check him out a little deeper if you've got time. I love how all 3 have such unique sounds and could play off each other casually (but Richie and Joe looked a lot more comfortable from experience taking a walk like they did). Richie sure looked like he was the maestro there for a while, he does a lot of cool follow me stuff like this with his solo band.
@@jopshua4703 Nuno came out of the gate different than everybody before or since. He didn't develop or evolve; he's just Nuno. You would have to have listened to him from then til now. He's just got more fire, passion and maturity backing him in those fingers, but he's always been this Guitar beast!
Richie Kotzen is the ultimate musician, the best guitarist alive, excellent singer and songwriter, I can't find other artist as talented and complete than him.
Those three guys on stage and the engineer is still pushing the kick so hard it’s clipping. Live sound engineers have got to start understand the kick drum rarely, if ever, plays the top line. Just because it’s easy, doesn’t mean you should do it.
Wish I was on this cruise, what i killer impromptu jam. Not for nothing but if I had to place them I'd give Richie 1st, Joe 2nd, and Nuno 3rd. I think just maybe the other guys are better improvisors, not better players. Saw Nuno a couple of months ago and he was stunning.
Hey! Joe Satriani is more phenomenal than we realized. He's playing the guitar and drums at the same time! What an amazing talent! lollol😆😂
Richie Kotzen is a beast. One of my all time favorites.
Satch and Nuno don't hold a candle to Richie. Guitar monster.
@@angusorvid8840actually nuno is the wax of the candle 🕯️ he’s the goat

This could be one hell of a G3 tour lineup , Richie, Joe & Nuno easily in my top 10 all time favorite guitar players!
Fuck man. This could be a helluva G3 tour.
Richie is so scary good. When he was with Mr. Big I saw him cover a Paul Gilbert solo that Paul taps and he shredding through it without tapping. Just with some crazy hand stretch and was nuts. The guy can play anything.
Bassist and drummer have the patience of a saint

You can see them look at each other as if to say "Did our contract say anything about getting overtime pay?"
This drummer is 71 year old.. would you believe that? ( It's real.. )
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@och70 🤣😂
IMHO...Satch is the Hendrix of shredders. Then come the younger guys that took it to another level.
Nuno and Kotzen are phenomenal players.
The Hendrix of shred is Eddie Van Halen. He’s the one who influenced all the shredders of the 80s.
@@KickflipGnasty nuno is a great player thats done nothing great. and hes off his nut on coke the entire time.
Maybe satch needs some lessons from these iconic shredders 😮

Richie Kotzen best guitar tone and best solo, he has more feeling
What is Joe even doing. He is equally as good for his style. This is NOT Satch's style.

Why do you hate them?
because he's edgy

That was a pretty epic JAM!! All 3 brought their own distinctive style A game to the party. I loved it

Joe is another level....Clearly the GOAT !
Love this lineup of talented guys, and how not one of them tries to outshine the other!! They are all KIngs of Rock to me!
I love the jam sessions. Pure talent They all respect each other. ❤

Love that Kotzen rips that solo then Joe has to do his own finger picked solo to show he can do it too!
That kotzen tone ❤
They really could make a project together and hit the roads on a world tour. It would be amazing!
Master richie as blues man rockin this gigs!!
I agree 100%
all excellent musicians! loved the part where Nuno did the talkbox!!!
Wow!, Richie Joe and Nuno top❤
Nuno saved the day.
Doesn't get much better than this. That's a G3 I would be first in line for.
OmG the tele is between the up down.. and he is the beast🔥
Awesomeness!!!
Joe is very good!!! Super colossal!!! haha
Love to all those comments who gave love to all the guitarists in the video.
Cool! People may forget , Kotzen was on the 80’s shrapnel label, so you knew he could rip with the best of them

ngl this was the first time i really enjoyed a going down jam, that was kickass.
SLEEPER ALERT: Ritchie Kotzen - dude burns.
I felt that Kotzen won this little battle. Nuno and Joe brought the fire also but there's just something about Richie's note choice and tone.
Yes, no pick is different.

im very biased, but everytime i hear satch during a jam, he always stands out the most to me.
Dw man same here XD
What a combo, I want to write them a song
Great trío!!!
amazing
Waw kotzennn
Love Nuno. Satch is great though too relient on legato licks. These jams somehow manage to always end in boring noodling.
Holy smokes now that’s a jam
The best👍👍👍
