    I was fortunate enough to receive a few lessons from Guthrie when I was at music college, and can honestly say the guy is an absolute genius. In my opinion he's the finest guitarist in the world. Doesn't matter what you ask him to play he does it better than anyone else. From note selection to clarity he's second to none. Not my favourite guitarist of all time, but definitely the best.

    • @stookiebhoy
      @stookiebhoy 8 ปีที่แล้ว +42

      Actually I'm not a great fan of Guthrie's music at all, but can recognise his immense talent. And how does attending some masterclasses make me a groupie you fucking imbecile? He did some masterclasses while I was at the Institute of Contemporary Music. Hundreds of world class musicians have passed through there over the years, both as students and as teachers, therefore I was merely stating fact. Another fact I'm happy to state is your jealousy is clear for all to see. Now away and get some kind of life you stupid wee boy. Go look for pubes or something

      Yeah, it's pretty crazy how well organized it sounded for an impromptu, unrehearsed performance.

      Its possible that Guthrie was being honest when he said they didnt rehearse. Guthrie probably gave them a heads up weeks/months prior to this gig, letting them know to learn the song. Its testament to their ability as musicians to then go and play it live first time! They were really good and the drummer especially nailed it. At the end of the day, its no different and theres no problem with this drummer imagining he's doing "his take" of this song, as if he was the guy in the studio when it was originally recorded... considering they had 0 rehearsals!
      Either that, or they had a semi/patchy rehearsals backstage or whatever, not a proper one with a full play through of the song before hand!
      Whats the drummers name btw? Anyone know?

Then slowly turning towards Greg Howe, Ritchie Kotzen, Brett Garsed etc. Now I listen to Allan Holdsworth full time. They are all good in there style. PG comes from a Neo classical , Heavy Metal ,Blues background. Guthrie is more from Jazz ,Jazz Fusion and plays every style possible invented. Paul has kept his style were Guthrie is constantly evolving. Both of my main inspiration to practice. There both amazing in there style and are super down to earth.

      I'm terribly tired of the useless critic lurking around every turn online. Paul Gilbert has a wonderful sense of musicality, his much-lauded technique aside. His phrasing is great. His rhythm playing is world-class, and I think it's perhaps his most interesting quality as a musician. Guthrie is a masterful player who never took a formal lesson.
      What defines a 'geek'? There are 'jazz geeks', as an example, but a lot of jazz is too frenetic to be comfortably listenable at length -- and I say that as one with an open mind, broad interests, and yes, excellent taste. You could push a piano out of the window of a penthouse jazz club and it would play every note it's capable of producing once it hit the pavement, but would that qualify as 'jazz' or music of any kind? Some douchebag 'geek' would likely call it progressive and great.
      "There are numerous other guitarists who light years way better than these two. And Paul G is no geek. He just plays blues rock in ultra speed."
      Okay. Name the "numerous", and while you're searching to compile a legitimate list, spend some time listening to the Classical 'rip-offs' that Paul has included on many of his albums of "...just blues rock in ultra speed."
      In the final analysis, it's ALL about subjective taste, and tasteless assholes are entitled to their opinions. As Duke Ellington said, "If it sounds good, it is good."

    • @GuitarGear1
      @GuitarGear1 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I say geek lovingly, enjoy music subjectively and view it and all opinions surrounding it as merely the feelings of a person being expressed (we're all just people), and see absolutely no point in trying to rate musicians. Its as silly as arguing, with bullet points, why green is a FAR superior color to stupid, stupid purple :)

      Guthrie Govan is the only guitarist I've ever seen that could go toe to toe with Buckethead. Gilbert does seem to rarely venture out of blues/rock/metal these days, but he's just doing what he WANTS to do, it doesn't mean he can't play in other styles, if you've followed him, you'd realize he's veeery diverse himself.

  • @renatovieira4472
    @renatovieira4472 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    To all people thinkin who's better, i say this: Paul Gilbert's prime time was late 80's and 90's. By then, every guitar player in the world immediatly recognized him as an out of this world prodigy. Probably the best. I'm pretty sure Guthrie looks at him as an idol and grateful for the experience. It's Guhtrie's reward by achieving a seat at the guitar gods table. I'm sure he feels it as each one of us would. Guthrie is a breath of fresh air and a consolidated beast amongst shredders, you may say he's the "flavour of the month". But my god, don't forget your roots and heroes when you're climbing your guitar journey. Guys like Gilbert, Petrucci, Vai, Satch, EVH, Slash, Malmsteen, B. May, have decades of awesomeness combined and inspired EVERY single rising guitarist ever since.

      He was known as the guy who could steal all your licks with relative ease and then play it back to you cleaner in his way..
      He has a huuuge repository of licks in his head to make up for his shredder sense... That's why he's always so confident at improvs, always quoting other player's licks..
      Even though he had to use 2 handed tapping for Lane, he could still copy Shawn Lane stuff...
      He has all that stored inside him
