My dad showed me this when I was a kid and it changed my musical taste forever. He died March 15 2022, RIP dad, wish we got to see g3 together 😭😭😭 can’t wait until my favourite songs don’t make me sad and think about missing you.
Oh...not really. He is good but has his style. Satriani is ...for me better in playing the blues anyway which is what they tried to do here. Steve Vai is the wrong person for these songs lol. But he did what he could. No, Johnson has a mediocre sound and that damn pentatonic lick birthed bonamassa. I don't like it played all the time damn it. Johnson is amazing with his material obviously but, again please don't compare. Satriani is a master of many trades. Literally, MASTER.
@@georgepagakis9854 I have to agree with you on most of your points. Eric Johnson is a master of the fretboard and an incredibly skilled musician. "Red House" is just not his genre. "playing a bunch of notes like he does which musically suck." Before I attack this comment, I want to ask what you meant by it.
Part of being a stellar, self assured musician is to do whats best for the song versus letting your ego take over. Excellent example being what Eric does at 6:01. Sees Satriani and Vai go nuts with their shreddy harmony stuff (which I loved btw) in the higher register and then chooses to play some basic arpeggios in the lower register just to balance the sound out. Could have ripped out a solo too but chose not to, FOR THE SONG. Thats Eric Johnson for you!!
Vai and Satriani are the always at the opposite end from "doing what's best for the song", I don't know how they sustain careers built solely on their fanbase of bedroom guitarists.
@@sinceagesago5258 satriani is good with blues rock licks since his style is close to hendrix.. but in 12 bar blues. He does not have the variaty with the sool of blues players such as eric johnson ... Classic blues is all about note choice and soul.. it is something you can not get it with only practice
Their won't any other G3 then the very best OG G3... this is so nostalgic ..back then had no idea what these guys are up for but now this is absolute gold..
I met Eric Johnson some years ago in Austin,Tx...He was a very nice guy,l got a couple of pictures with him and also l met Tommy Shannon from SRV's Double Trouble another nice and humble musician
Lo de eric Johnson es espectacular, lim´pio, técnico, sin adornos innecesarios y con un sentimiento que pega directo a la cabeza y el corazón; lo de Satriani y Steve Vai, increíble, qué trío!
The best rendition of this song, Satch & Vai had a tendency to overdo, Eric however managed to keep the things together. Having said, some of Vai licks were great & the synchronous duel of Satch & Vai was perfect
Johnson overdid it. Satriani is by far the only one tuned in on the damn song. Which is something happening often in g3 shows and then he goes off as well and all control is lost.
While some fans want to project their egos by saying that one guitarist is better than the other, these guitar legends are just having fun playing with each other and not thinking about who is better on the stage.
De hecho es el único que vale la pena escuchar, Satriani y Vai me resultan hasta estorbosos porque saturan la canción, sus frases están llenas de lugares comunes y, en caso de Vai, de extravagancias que no vienen al caso.
Gosh I love these guys... I can never decide who is my favourite, it changes day by day... Steve Vai will always be my hero, but j is soo smoth and warm, and Satch... well... It’s Satch, what can ya say
Well said mate. 'Good' and 'best' are always just opinions. I personally would say that Steve Vai is way out of his element playing the blues. I don't enjoy his blues playing or tone, but it would be ridiculous to say it's bad. It's just not for me!! :) Eric and Satch KILLED this one in my opinoin though!!!
Sounds like Joe read a "how to play blues" column in one of those magazines he's featured in so heavily, Guitar World or Guitar Bore or Guitar Wank or whatever they were called.
@@Alex.Murphy0987 He's not talking about this specific video , he's talking in general . Satriani is a really good blues player . You search for some vids of him
Eric Jhonson fantástico, enquanto Satriani e Vai estão solando ele está fazendo bases e criando linhas com doubles stops entre outras coisas que enriquecem a música !!!
When I used to watch this DVD as a kid I always skipped EJ, and just watched Satch and Vai. Now I just watch EJ
Same here with me ...i guess its bcuz the older we get the more we understand music....
Me too LOL
When i was kid i watched only EJ on this dvd 😆
Fuck yeah! Mee too! Lol!
That kid was me!! haha.
My dad showed me this when I was a kid and it changed my musical taste forever. He died March 15 2022, RIP dad, wish we got to see g3 together 😭😭😭 can’t wait until my favourite songs don’t make me sad and think about missing you.
❤
😢
R.i.p dad
G3 original lineup is touring again in 2024 - check their website
My father was also a huge fan of Eric Johnson, but I showed him this G3 dvd. He also loved Cliffs of Dover. My dad also passed away this year 😭
Eric Johnson guitar playing was so fucking elegant.
for me, nothing can top the very first G3. Eric Johnson is my most favorite.
indeed!
Thank goodness Johnson rescued Satriani and Vai from themselves.
Right on..
yea man too right so natural
via and satrianni (soz cant spell)are the reason i gave up playing guitar
Hahahahaha

Eric Johnson is the best. Has an angelic voice and a perfect guitarist.
@@juanfra7578 "his style" #ytmostidioticcomments
Não existe um melhor, eles são muito fodas
@@georgepagakis9854 EJ solo is by far the most creative of them. My all time favorite red house solo.
@@georgepagakis9854 nice joke bro

Best G3 era..
I just love Eric's tone & timing. I can listen to this all day long.
Eric Johnson playing some nice rhythm and bass lines during the climactic solos.

indeed! those inversions are mind blowing
You know, maybe they planned It lmao
@@lucaa6451yeah I mean Hendrix goes nuts on this song anyway. If you had Vai and Satch standing next you wouldn’t you want to let them just go for it?
The chemistry between Steve and his master is just priceless.Eric is as good as always
Eric johnson is the close one of them to the blues guitar playing...
The Bass player comes pretty close as well...
Let me disagree. I think Joe's first solo was true blues. It sounded quite simple and I think he really felt it.
You obviously one sided here, Satch has some beautiful blues licks as well.
Eric is more old school kind of player ... even his tune is more "blueslike", but overall they are all amazing!

Finally we have this back.. Thanks to this video I started to play guitar at my young age of 13/14 years old.. I have Learn a lot from Eric..
Reason why i choose strat
He is/was a real get for team Strat!
Eric's voice is so clean
Voz e guitarra
As clean as that guitar tone
This is definitely johnson's genre.
EJ is a LORD!
What a musicality!
Great song!! Love Eric Johnson, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai!! The first G3 is the best!! Love as well Stuart Han and Jeff Campitelli!!
Eric Johnson still my favorite
Eric Johnson's got an angelic voice.

EJ is overwhelming, that was the first impression I saw this when I was 15 and now I'm 33 but still, I feel the same.
Epic Johnson!!
Eric is awesome. And Satrianis first solo is just stunning
EJ has the groove - that sets him apart. All amazing players.
Lo de eric Johnson es espectacular, lim´pio, técnico, sin adornos innecesarios y con un sentimiento que pega directo a la cabeza y el corazón; lo de Satriani y Steve Vai, increíble, qué trío!
Three stars on the planet earth
The stuff Steve Vai comes up with is just mindblowing. All of them are amazing.
Eric Johnson 👍🏼
Johnson is king! The bass player and drummer were awesome! I’ll just leave it at that!
This stuff is pure friggin GOLD!!!!!
Eric Johnson is my man....

Eric Johnson taking his two boys to the playground...
Excellent drummer.

Sweet sound of guitar, sweet sound of vocal, perfect cover.
best g3 jam ever. god DAMN
I am here ❤❤❤ G3
No question they played much more tastefully at g3s back then compared to recent ones.
EJ is a real technician ..super awesome 💯😎
Eric Johnson es el mejor 🎸🤩 me encanta como toca tan bien esa guitarra en Limpio 🎸👏🏻 es nivel Dios 🎸👏🏻
el mejor en guitarra melodica, un maestro!

This is so good I feel like I'm leaving the atmosphere.
G3- is one of the best relations with top-top mucicians, and because of that they pley greatly.!!!
🌈 😎👍👏
Amazing blues and great men
When I searched for Eric Johnson singing...it never showed me this... now it showed up in my "recommended" few years later
Only Eric respect the song
Steve and Joe are all over the place
stupidity is the worst cancer or virus in the society.
EJ very cool!!!
Ufff... The bass...
El mejor solo y sonido es el de johnson por favor cuanto sentimiento y que hermosa viola ❤️🔥🤘🏾🎸
Si pero no podemos negar que las guitarras de Vai y Satriani te dan ganas de agarrarlas y romper todo
De hecho es el único que vale la pena escuchar, Satriani y Vai me resultan hasta estorbosos porque saturan la canción, sus frases están llenas de lugares comunes y, en caso de Vai, de extravagancias que no vienen al caso.
Gosh I love these guys... I can never decide who is my favourite, it changes day by day... Steve Vai will always be my hero, but j is soo smoth and warm, and Satch... well... It’s Satch, what can ya say
Brings back memories...
Mr EJ , it's well done , 5 golden star .
Goosebumps for years.... thank you gentlemen.... it makes you want to cry :)
Sensacional
Mooooostroooooo....
Dream team
i remember watching this dvd in google videos back in the day. around 2004. im glad its back again online
He's still singing good. Nice stamina controls
EJ cannot play just the blues!! He just goes beyond that !!!
Beautiful version
eric johnsons showing a full melody guitar.. melody's finger by finger
Eric !!
Weltklasse. Danke
the best G3...
EJ has voicings and phrasings for days!
I don’t know about you guys but this G3 are the best!
Eric Johnson can improvise as a rhythm guitarrist? Of course!
It's EJ my favorite but it's unfair to say that Joe and Steve aren't good! They're all good and have their own styles.
Well said mate. 'Good' and 'best' are always just opinions. I personally would say that Steve Vai is way out of his element playing the blues.

Still my favorite G3 🤗🤗🤗
This G3 DVD, was the first that my father gave to me . Love the sound of 3 masters here.
El mejor g3!!!
Perfect!
fenomenal
4:52-4:58 the original blues guitar playing.
Sounds like Joe read a "how to play blues" column in one of those magazines he's featured in so heavily, Guitar World or Guitar Bore or Guitar Wank or whatever they were called.
wow vai playing blues..cool
WOW!
Thats the reason why ...the blues it's hard to play...
Yay
Когда уходит любовь, начинается блюз !!! Дави на газ, все будет джаз !!!
Best of the best
Satriani can play serious blues
Lol! You're trippin on acid, yo!
@@Alex.Murphy0987 He's not talking about this specific video , he's talking in general . Satriani is a really good blues player . You search for some vids of him
lol lol lol lol lol
6:21
EJ: Steve, dude! WTH are you doing?

Masterpiece 😮
Johnson ..... My man
Genios 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Eric jonhson é o melhor.

Eric Jhonson fantástico, enquanto Satriani e Vai estão solando ele está fazendo bases e criando linhas com doubles stops entre outras coisas que enriquecem a música !!!
Dos 3 o stilo q mais eu gosto depois satriani
