Josh Smith's solo totally floored me... what an absolute master.
Tone for days.
Absolutely!
+1, insane
Effortless
Played guitar for over 30 years and I must have watched this vid over 100 times. Firstly what a phenomenal cover, but secondly, Josh’s solo is just off the chart - floored me too!
Props to the unsung hero, the sound engineer. Sounding sweet. And the snare is just perfection.
Agree..
@Daedalus Icarus I got XR18! thanks for notice the X32 control software, that's amazing
It says in the description it's Martin Miller himself, so, not that unsung xD
@Daedalus Icarus Absolutely yes!
Almost got the same rig, went for a zoom l-20 instead - slightly different features but certainly similar vibe... Amazing what you can get for your cash nowadays to make great music and capture excellent performances!
2:53 - Josh Smith's beautiful solo
4:20 - Benni Jud's badass bass solo
6:00 - Martin Miller.. Damn
Every single person involved in this project is absolutely world class. From Martin and his regular guys, his guests, the engineers, to the camera crew, even the cleaner is a legend!! Such a great band.
lol the cleaner 😂
I'm obsessed with Josh Smith's solo...so damn clean with a hint of a country tone. his taste in tone and phrasing are just bad ass
Been obsessing over that solo for a week now! Keep coming back to it... He's an absolute legend!
I am still coming back to it...
Funny thing is when he explains his solo technique and you see how he builds up an improv, and then yet when he does it, its magic
Everybody is talking about the bassits voice, but the way his bass sounds and sits in the mix is as magical 😍
The bass sounds absolutely perfect. Not to mention his playing with such accuracy and soul, while singing. Great!
I can't say in words how good that guy is, his bass solo and singing is magical
Compressor + mid scoop and overdrive = best bass tone
Its great
The tone is spectacular and the bass solo is very neat.
Aside from Benni's fantastic vocals, his bass solo starting at 4:21 was freakin world-class. Serious talent.
Wholeheartedly agree. Even among the world-class musicians that this bunch is made up of, he shines like a freaking diamond.
Love the way Josh switches between the neck and bridge pickups on his strat multiple times during that first solo, really gives a nice hint of variation
It's incredibly in place. Martin is really good technically, but I always prefer Josh. Not only tone-wise, but entirely. Martin almost sounds out of place, but I still wish I had his knowledge of the neck.
@TwangaBunga i like the two different takes on the solo. Josh went all on blues, Martin went more Jazzy. Which both fit the progression. It's just John himself went bluesy and Martin's lick might be a bit long for the phrasing of the song.
@@MrHaggyy Martin is an amazing guitarist and, of course it depends on your taste in music, but Josh's solo is just out of this world
@@relaind agree blues never die
The bass guy is super excellent... Loved his skills
Josh Smith has got to be one of the best modern blues guitarists. This solo is so inspirational 👏🙌
Agree
The bass solo is so sick mayer would be proud!
Bayan Magiliw hope he’d see it haha
That was one hell of a solo by josh, Jesus Christ , that guys got it down
The brilliance and timbre of Benni Jud's voice is addictive to me. I love to hear him sing.
Benni blows my mind!
Josh Smith, that was a tremendously tasty solo, you are a legend sir
That's the difference between elite level and great. Elite level means you don't need to do all the scales and arpeggios all the time - you have it in the bank if you need but it's just a tool to help you reach your goal
Mark O'Neill That was insane. And he made it look so easy.
Did you play for bayside by any chance
Just look how Josh is switching pickups during his solo, he masters the art of making his guitar cry!
Benny Jud is true master of music. He can do it all, play bass like a boss and sing like a star. True inspiration for us all. ✌
yeah strongly agree Benny Jud is a true master of music.
Wicked bass player! Lots of musical talent in that room
That was excellent! The bass solo was the best sounding I’ve heard in my life. I’m 60 years old.
this project is easily the best thing that happened to the modern music scene.
That my friends! That is A solo. Listening and learn, the fat tone from a real tube amp, the feel, the timing etc. Everything is there. Josh is king. 👏
MARTIN, PLEASE COLLAB WITH MATEUS ASATO !
-2023
"Thank you Martin for make it happen"
You all the best !!!
Right on...two alpha males...lol
I second this notion
WOW, PLEASE DO THIS!!!!
up
not really
Me: “oh it’s just another ‘Slow Dancing’ cover....”
*bass solo*
Me: “nevermind.”
Yeah Benni and Marius are crazy underrated! Mad props to you guys!
true. I almost skipped after hearing the first part and then saw your comment :)
Facts
Benni has the best voice! Far out, every time he sings I get shivers. And he always seems so happy doing what he does.
That drummer! I don't even care that he's lefty (sound engineers will understand). He's the magic in this tune.
lol. I'm right handed. for some reason I CANNOT watch lefties play drum. Totally fks me up! lol
Freakin Josh is a true diamond in the rough! Just pure musical feel and genius
And I was not expecting that bass solo!!!!
Let that base player rock out!!! YEAH
Benni Jud. How good are you mate. Fantastic. Great vocals. Nice to see you shine.
Josh is a real monster - he can play guitar and drums simultaneously!
I've literally seen this song performed by hundreds of different people. This one is special. I'd love to John Mayer's review of this. That bass solo was freaking legendary.
Bass player's voice is as rich and deep as his bass tone, awesome!!!!!!
Loved the ad in Martin Miller's guitar solo. Really spoke to me
16 bar bass solo would have been enough in my opinion, thanks josh smith for your strat tone and your right feeling, you're not only a blues virtuoso but a true guitar master!
highest compliments to the audio engineer for the perfect levels on all the instruments. everyone sounds even and perfectly balanced in the mix.
I loved the solo, especially at 3:34 , and the fact that he improvised a new solo is great
"It's so easy to go for a solo when you sound high pitched" said that bass solo
Dear Bass players that day has come!
Benni Jud stole the show this time. What a voice!
Yeah True story and great bass sound too :)
Totally!! I've loved his bass playing in these vids, but had little idea he could kill it on vox like this.
Nino Helfrich He totally did
You're so overestimating his voice, he wasn't that great at all.
Alebo Boi like you can sing better. No one need negativity here
The entire band is just slaying it!!
A lot of people would be very happy if you all did a 90's alternative rock tribute - Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Mudhoney etc.
If you all did a 20 min jam of Pearl Jam, I'd probably only be listening to that for years to come... Lol!
Dude with the hat who did the 1st solo was awesome, had so much soul good interpretation. Beautiful.
Josh Smith missed the memo on keeping low in a band! :D What a performance!
Benni is such a talented bass player and singer! I've watched his live streams and I can't understand why he hasn't got more subscribers. Together with Felix, they are by far one of the best rhythm sections I've ever heard.
Sometimes, ... when I bump into this song I listen to Josh lead part at least three times. :)
The whole band is great anyway and no praise is high enough!
CHILLSSSS. I hope John sees this!
Lost count of how many times I’ve seen this, the musicality of these people is next level
What I love about these guys is that at the end of any song, the play the closing theme just for fun
From this Video, I realize how great John Mayer was. His soul and feel on guitar is exceptional🔥
*how great John Mayer is. He's still around!
He's still alive you know 😏
Where the Light Is ending solo of this song. Masterfully played and phrased.
Probably one of the best John Mayer covers I’ve heard. The guys playing lead guitar have some soul!
This room is on fire. We loved that guys.
I like how MM stands quietly in the corner as if he's not an unnecessarily talented guitar god.
Benni Jud awesome playing and singing!!!!! True artist
I live in UK and I'm just hearing about these guys and this voice along with the bass solo
Josh Smith's playing is so fluid. I'm not sure I've heard anyone who's got that sophisticated phrasing while also maintaining such feel and tone all at the same time. This guy is an actual Master.
Benni Jud - Great voice and absolutely amazing bass player!!
I just mediated for 90 mins this morning then I listened to this after. This is musical meditation in it's own right. Thank you cosmos for music. It's the greatest gift to the planet. Peace and love everybody
i can't believe there's three solo verses holy moly, 2 guitars solo and one bass solo this is really good damnnnnn
Why is this not one of the top selling bands in Europe....Great guitarists, great drummer, great keyboard guy and a great bass player with an awesome voice
The best cover I listened! The guitar player found a magnific solo to add this song!
Very professional all!
Never been a huge John Mayer fan...he’s got a gift ...but you mr bass player...where did that voice come from? ..this cover and song. Wow ..You my friend have an ungodly talent. As everyone in this room does. But I’m shaking my head and at an emotional borderline ... this upload has absolutely 100% made my weekend nothing but smiles… Thank you for all the hard work you put into these videos to entertain us normal humans on this planet because you guys are definitely not from here…mad respect. From Ontario Canada
Kevin Vandusen wow! Thanks so much my friend!
Great all.....We are absolutely amazing !!!!
Josh’s solo is utter perfection in tone and execution with emotion and feel....damn brother
easily one of the best renditions i’ve heard, josh’s tone and phrasing is just phenomenal and miller is just absolutely godly and never fails to blow me away, infuckingcredible!!
Great playing, everyone! One of the most tasteful bass solos I've heard recently!
Man this video made me cry like a baby
Bunch of tonemonsters. Just oozing talent and musicality.
Josh's solo was more than great :) So much taste AND feel there ... amazing
More than one whole minute of pure joy beginning from 4:20 of bass solo... Soul satisfying indeed!
I am dying...uffff miller...what have you done man. Love you all.
Josh Smith, and the other guitarist just lift the song to another level, bass player holding it down while singing stellar band, great sound.
Clicked on this so fast, it's still in 360p. But I just know it's gonna be class
Dude on the Strat has some killer tone 🤘🔥
Johnny Dollar7 Josh Smith
Looks like playing through a Morgan
Absolute tingles…. Seriously
Josh smiths solo is phenomenal…simply of the world
Makes me appreciate Mayer's vocal timbre even more. The guitar in this cover is great, but more than half of the song's appeal is that Smokey rasp that Mayer possesses.
Sean Hemstedt I agree, the difference in the vocals jumps out SO much. But I really like that this guy was brave and did it in his honest way. Most people put on a fake rasp
@@heirtothepwn maybe...but as a vocalist/multi-instrumentalist myself, song selection does matter...and anyone who performs in from of crowds knows this. I dont think this was a good choice for him vocally....and Ive seen this from him more than a time or two: He has access to other vocalists who are a better fit for a song, yet he chooses to do it himself. I'm pretty descent at a bunch of instruments, but there are MANY that I would never put front-and-center for an audience because I have access to far better musicians in my circles. This young man has WAY more access than I do...so I think it makes more sense to choose the best tool for the job at hand. Just on opinion, of course....and what do I know. Afterall, he DOES have far more followers than I do.
@@riffism "yet he chooses to do it himself"
It's not Martin Miller himself singing …
The nuances with his guitar licks too. This song sounds easy to play... but it ain't. Not like John does.
Bass tone! It made my jaw drop
josh smiths playing is like butter and benni has just become my favorite bass player
You're right--those guys are seriously great. But let's not forget about Martin because his highly technical playing is so fast, melodic, and clean. He could stand on the stage with the best guitar players on earth--John Petrucci, Joe Satriani, Steve Lukather, Vinnie Moore, Guthrie Govan, and others.
@@mesabman martin is overrated🤣🤣🤣
Just a few bars into Martin's solo I catch myself swaying back and forth to the music with a big stupid smile on my face. As per usual. He gets me every time. So damn good.
Freaking hell. Absolutely astonishing!
The bass player took this song over. Nice work on the vocals and solo.
Josh Smith gets more and more amazing everytime I see him play. He has an amazing touch and feel and it's great to hear him put that drip of honey on this Mayer track. Totally mind blowing
The guy who playing stratcaster is sound like Eric Johnson🤩
Holy shit that bass solo I was not expecting 😮
I've probably listened to this track a dozen times, and each time I'm disappointed that I already hit the thumbs up and can't do it again and again.
Listen to these every few days - it's so great to watch masters in their art perform. Sound engineer was spot on too.
Damn.....to be sitting in there with a couple of beers......so much talent and pure music.
These guys are as professional as any I've ever heard...sound so good
What a solo ... most amazing solo cover i heard ever
In that room FULL of heavy hitters, it's nice to see Benni owning this one.
The pickup changing on Josh's solo is really wild. I never noticed it until now but he shifts the lever based on the location of the neck he's playing on, and he does it during the natural phrasing points in his playing, like when a horn or wood wind player would breath.
He's amazing. Definitely mind blower!
I can listen to Josh Smith's solos all the time
Great job guys, I like how you put your own vibes/style in vocals and instruments. A very “original” cover, let John Mayer sound like Johnn Mayer and you guys do your own thing.
Im totally blown away!!!!!!!!
What an amazing vibe for a video shoot. Now I’m dying to talk a local band into a shoot that looks and feels like this.
Martin. Benni is the man. We all know.
As a bass player turned all rounder, a talent like his is not un-noticed. As is his carefully crafted participation of your awesome whole.
If you do nothing else as a bassist but make your song better.... you have succeded.
He goes way past that. For me, IMHO, he is a pillar of the Martin Miller Experience.
Has he hit you up for a pay rise yet....?
🥺🥺🥺❤️
Dear Martin and team, you've done an incredible and respectful work so far: perfect musicality and amazing sound design.
I think it's now time to move to a Dream Theater medley. I know it will be hard, but I it's going to be epic! TH-cam will never be the same again. Neither Dream Theater covers.
Best!
A fan.
WE NEED THIS!
NOW!
Hard for who?
Man the drummer 🙌🏼
Probably not the first time I've commented on this as I find my way back here during most TH-cam guitar watching, but... Josh Smith... Soooo much taste and control.
So much to love about what he's doing. His opening bit, in a non-music way: He opens with a few notes. There are around three or four notes that you hear the most, and four or five that he layers underneath - little quieter notes that he's just putting there to add flavour, like a bay leaf in a slow cooker. And he does that all the way until he flicks the pickup to the bridge and melts face for a few notes, effortlessly sliding two note thirds (fifths?) in parts, but then smooths down again, with more thobbing two string note slides and beat perfect eighth (?) note melodies, but he was only warming you up, and then I get lost in it all and can only listen and savour the soul food.
And then he just effortlessly ends it, and passes it back to the band as if it was nothing, because he knows he could rip it just as well in the next minute if he needed to.
Well Knowledge and mastering of your own Force render that possible my friend !!! did you watch their Sultans of swing video … he goes completely out … this is wonderful !!!
I love how the difference in tone between the two guitars makes the harmonizations sound even more amazing. Great work Martin Miller and team! Kudos!
A pleasure to hear you on the strat.. unlike most other players, you not only have a great vocabulary but also have such a developed and refined feel and tone.. A true guitar master! Look forward to seeing what you come up with in the near future
You guys are true masters. It's one of those rare cases when you hear a cover of one of these giant musicians and you think "they're at the same level, if not better than the original"... many many compliments! You make my soul sing with you. You're a bless for every music lover.
Wow! Nuff said.
