All these comments! Anyone with any knowledge of blues based guitar would know he's a really good player. Todd rundgren, Robin trower, Stevie Ray Vaughn, David Gilmore, all great blues based guitar players. Listen to these Giants and then listen to grissom. The guy just has it in spades. I only recently discovered his work, but he's very impressive. Really nice to hear someone new I hadn't previously heard before. Great feel and technique.
DG will go down with the greats. One of the few players who is instantly recognisable within a few notes. Accusing DG of lacking soul and feel is the most ridiculous thing I've heard.
clembo3rc this is literally the first I have heard him... this clip. Fuckin’ great! Love his guitar playing. Pretty great version of a very tough song to pull off right! Awesome.
David Grissom is "da bomb". 45 year player myself and he's right up there with Hendrix in my book. One of the great players of my generation without a doubt......
Very few guitarists can tackle a Hendrix tune and really do it justice. SRV was one, and Grissom is another. I've seen him many times with Joe Ely and now he's doing great things as a bandleader in his own right.
If you aren’t familiar with Rich Williams or Kerry Livgren, you might want to give some of the deep Kansas cuts a listen. In particular, the second and third LPs.
Very Cool Music !! Great Performance !!! A music professor once told me; Do you know how to tell if it’s really good?” I said; “ No.” He said; “ When they say, ‘ Could I hear that again? ‘ and that’s the only way.” Love Ya Man ! Faubus
First time listening to D Grissom and love being taken back to the 70s. Listening to him because of the spec to his guitar with split coils. I love his style. More into jazz fusion, but like Robin Trower blues, the British hendrix.
Question for anyone who knows. Is this David Grissom and a younger lead player, named David Grissom, in 1984 played with Lou Ann Barton ? Did "Hip Shake Baby". ??? Look like they could be. ??? If so, Wow!!
love this cat, always have. there are only two guitar players on earth that you can tell who it is after 5 notes.jeff beck and david grissom, David just gets better with age.He has come a long way with his vocals, hope to see him out touring with this band.
He's not underrated, his music isn't mainstream and therefore not really known. He's really well know by us musicians and we rate him highly. Gen Pop doesn't know or care. But that doesn't make him underrated. Oh and he has a signature guitar so for that alone he's not underrated
Recently discovered David on utube, I'm super impressed!! As a player myself, my three fave players are Todd rundgren, Robin trower , and Stevie Ray Vaughn. I now have a fourth!!!
It's ridiculous to see people critique musicians for NOT being Hendrix: DG is great in his own right, but this is obviously not the BOG - but who is? Who Knows...
US made PRS' are modern classics IMHO. As you hear on this clip they just ooze tone and they play like a dream. I've had a CU24 for 2 years now and it's my main gigging axe. I still love my Gibbys and Fenders of which I own many but the PRS is the most versatile and playable axe I've ever owned. I can totally see why Grissom would use one.
My 2010 PRS DGT is my 3rd favorite guitar, right behind my McCarty 594, and McCarty sc594. My DGT looks just his, except for its has birds and not dots.
An awesome bit of energy!! Too bad I can't find other Grissom songs that nearly compare - apparently he needs a little leverage to put it up to this level but thankfully he did here and if this is as good as it gets then I'll take it
Scott Nelson on bass, Stefano Intellisano on keys, and Brian Austin on drums. The David Grissom band. Scott is out touring so Chris Maresh is now on bass....
Dicen de ti: “Es un Ser humano”. Dicen de mí: “Es un animal”. Y no se han dado cuenta. . . . . . . . Que nuestra diferencia, está en algo muy simple: Tú: Piensas que me quieres. . . . y YO, "Te quiero sin pensar". Gagma.
I can't believe how many idiots are dissing this... Mark Hollingsworth is sadly missing what it's about. It's not about Jimi, it's about David Grissom. Davids guitar on this sounds better than the Hendrix version (RIP Jimi).
Indeed. A lot of Jimi's songs were frameworks upon which he would build whatever he felt like at the time. I've heard versions by Jimi that are like mighty cathedrals of sound and others that are barely more than tumbledown shacks of noise. As a player if you even attempt to replicate what Jimi did you really aren't getting it. Despite what the DJ says at the end David Grissom is not 'channeling the spirit of Jimi Hendrix' he is building his own edifice on Jimi's framework. Given that he's in a small room with no audience to feed off of he makes something pretty good here. As for comparing guitar tones, if David had used a univbe for this I might have agreed with you but without that pedal his sound is so different to Jimi's classic versions that I can't prefer one over the other(s).
Its the other way ´round. Jimi played stratocaster throughout his career, studio and live. And at RARE occations he played another brand. There is ONLY Stratocasters and Telecasters on his records.
DG is one of my all time favorite guitarists. Disagree 100% with Marc Hollingsworth. The world is full of guitar players that can cover Hendrix. Sure Jimi did his songs first (and no one loves Jimi more than me) but many covers build on Hendrix's originals. This is one. Are the vocals as good as Jimi's? Maybe not, but the guitar work is as good if not better. Just MHO....
I have been a fan of this excellent guitatist since the 1980s. I warms my heart that he is still amazing.
F'N FINALLY!!
Someone who gets it!
God bless them...it is a team sport!
The bass player has the longest arms in the world!
Nah, he's just got short legs ;-)
You must not know who doug pinnick is.........
and thus the longest strap in the world
He used to play bass for The Tallest Man in the World

OMG, where has he been all my life?! Amazing and just my style. HAMMER heavy blues.
.... It has a superb sound ! PRS and PRS amp perfectly
Total control. Left and right hand, chords, lines, tone.
DG will go down with the greats. One of the few players who is instantly recognisable within a few notes. Accusing DG of lacking soul and feel is the most ridiculous thing I've heard.
clembo3rc this is literally the first I have heard him... this clip. Fuckin’ great! Love his guitar playing. Pretty great version of a very tough song to pull off right! Awesome.
Band is great too.
I agree😁
He’s not dead yet!
I love my DGT guitar I just purchased. 2012 model

Hendrix will never die - thanks for sharing.

I agree. I'd say D. Bramhall II, too.
Grissom is a silent killer…caught him at Saxon pub…..ruthless, tasteful, obtuse leads, and gravy tones!
Very Cool Music !! Great Performance !!!
A music professor once told me; Do you know how to tell if it’s really good?”
I said; “ No.” He said; “ When they say, ‘ Could I hear that again? ‘ and that’s the only way.”
Love Ya Man !

David Grissom is tearing it up! Great performance....
Awesome tone.
Bartos,Bartos ,have you any cash?
@@Lrat-ey5di hahaha!
just discovered Dave after seeing his guitar in my mag. Why has it taken me so long - this is just brilliant.
First time listening to D Grissom and love being taken back to the 70s. Listening to him because of the spec to his guitar with split coils. I love his style. More into jazz fusion, but like Robin Trower blues, the British hendrix.
He stays on the bridge here. I don't think the tone knob is popped up, which splits the coils. I have one of his DGT model guitars.
Love that guitar! Love that playin!
I think if I could play and sound like any guitar player in the world it would be this guy Grissom…so incredibly tasteful….
Question for anyone who knows. Is this David Grissom and a younger lead player, named David Grissom, in 1984 played with Lou Ann Barton ? Did "Hip Shake Baby". ??? Look like they could be. ??? If so, Wow!!
Both from Austin….most likely
This bass player use to play with Kenny Wayne Shepard too. His tone is killer and he’s solid!
Edit: and yes the guitar 🎸 tone is epic!
I have always like this mans style and attack. great version from a true guitarist and musician.
thank god for youtube period.
Really amazing tone player and awesome amp too
What is the amp he uses?
love this cat, always have. there are only two guitar players on earth that you can tell who it is after 5 notes.jeff beck and david grissom, David just gets better with age.He has come a long way with his vocals, hope to see him out touring with this band.
EdwardVH, Hendrix start that list off
Oh, c'mon on!!! David isn't just a great guitarist, he's a good singer too!! 😄
Makes my life worthy
He's excellent, and i think underrated by allot of people.
A lot don’t know him to begin with
He's not underrated, his music isn't mainstream and therefore not really known. He's really well know by us musicians and we rate him highly. Gen Pop doesn't know or care. But that doesn't make him underrated.
Oh and he has a signature guitar so for that alone he's not underrated
His tone is just so GREAT!!! the notes and chords he picks are pure David!
Thanks for making comment. Now I don’t have to...
David is a badass guitarist!
old hendrix song,, great stuff,, a big fan,,keep it commin
Love this!

Recently discovered David on utube, I'm super impressed!! As a player myself, my three fave players are Todd rundgren, Robin trower , and Stevie Ray Vaughn. I now have a fourth!!!

Beautiful and wise playing here by Dave.

I dig it.. great job..

An awesome bit of energy!!
Too bad I can't find other Grissom songs that nearly compare - apparently he needs a little leverage to put it up to this level but thankfully he did here and if this is as good as it gets then I'll take it
Storyville, Live from Antones
Grissom trio live, squawk
Woooo wwowwwww
The drummer is kept behind the glass so he doesn’t kill anyone.
Am I the only one who see Jack Black on drums and Dr. House on the bass?
The real McCoy!!
I think that the same people must be commenting on every music video on youtube. Has to be.
Great! Does anyone know the names of the band members?
Scott Nelson on bass, Stefano Intellisano on keys, and Brian Austin on drums. The David Grissom band. Scott is out touring so Chris Maresh is now on bass....
Dicen de ti:
“Es un Ser humano”.
Dicen de mí:

Y no se han dado cuenta. . . . . . . .
Que nuestra diferencia, está en algo muy simple:
Tú:
Piensas que me quieres. . . .
y YO, "Te quiero sin pensar".

What Fuzz pedal are you using David?

is that jack black playing drums?
Its the other way ´round. Jimi played stratocaster throughout his career, studio and live. And at RARE occations he played another brand. There is ONLY Stratocasters and Telecasters on his records.
Really? Try House Burning Down off Ladyland. That’s a Gibson. Telecaster? Where? Which track?
jack black on drum.. lol
No kiddding, looks just like him!
and is that dhani harrison on keyboard? :P
+moises lopez sure it is man....why don't you go back to smoking your weed and let the rest of us enjoy the music...bro
Turn your guitar up...
Is this tuned down 1 whole step?
This is a very good cover but is light years away from the excitement, the rebelliousness the emotion of the Hendrix original. Listen to the original!
The bass player looks like the guy out of breaking bad'
Jack Black on the drums....Yes!! Lol

"...but the guitar work is as good if not better." as good, not better. "How 'bout the best one sitting in this chair." -JH Dick Cavett show july-1969
As much as I like this cover, I think Hendrix' version is way better guitar wise.
i like he's playing, but he always looks so sad
listening to what's going on around him,Clapton does it too
If Mick Jagger made a deal with the devil to be insanely good on the guitar ☝️
I also notice he sounds a bit like Jagger:)
