One of the most euphoric guitar compositions ever recorded. "Alchemy" is an apt name for this sublime work of art. Over a lifetime on stage, the blues/rock guitar wizardry of Mr. Phillip Sayce has aged to perfection in emotional nuance, melodic flow, timing, and sparseness when needed.
Ivan Camps Guitar, sure thing but I ment humans not aliens :D Derek's galaxy lays far, far away from mother Earth, right next to the Allan Holdsworth's one ;) Long live Bluesrock!
If you really listen closely, Philip's tone is a clear combination of Jimi Hendrix and SRV. He has that clean, almost bell-like tone along with the rapid fire Texas Blues-fueled licks Stevie was very well known for. That aggressive fuzz on the other hand is purely Jimi's influence. You could even add Robin Trower into the mix given how often he tends to kick in the uni-vibe as well. But if you ask me this guy is a way better player than Mayer but again, it is merely my opinion.
This guy may be interesting to listen to (for about a minute), but he is not anywhere close to the league of world class (Bonnamassa, Mayer...). This performance is not even a song, just noodling and trying to show off riff chops...like you might find kids doing in any Guitar Center on any day.
If you call this noodling then you don't have ears. And Philip is on another level. He has songs of all kinds. From songs that are completely instrumental like these, to songs with no guitar solo. Maybe if you actually cared to venture into who a player is before you label them something you'd discover your new favourite guitarist. Philip has songwriting to back up his chops. If you can only listen to his stuff for a minute, it goes to show that you're someone who wouldn't be able to appreciate blues if it hit you right in the face. And if ordinary Guitar Center noodling was this good, I'd never want to leave the store.
@@ziggamaras EXACTLY. People forget that the most emotional songs in players' arsenal are sometimes the wordless, long instrumental songs. For The Love Of God, Lenny, Rude Mood, Always With Me Always With You, Cliffs Of Dover, the list goes on and on. And only 2 of those songs are blues songs. Traditional songwriting is great, but Stevie's live performance of Lenny at the Spectrum made me tear up right at the end because of how he chooses to release the tension that was built up throughout the whole song. That rarely happens for someone like me

Phillip is out of this world
I hear For The Love Of God, I hear Black Napkins, I hear Little Wing and all kind other good stuff. Just discovered this guy today, very cool.
I think so.
Absolut true..SRV
Honestly the closest thing to SRV we have in this world, go philip!
Great performance & tone. Phil always gives 120% emotionally and gets completely in the moment. And yeah, what a tone.
the best guitarist in the world to me
Does his wife understand the amount of love he has for her.. if music were a feeling!
Music is a feeling
Chapeau, Maestro ! What a melody, what a feeling. Splendid !
Damn son. When the solo gets into its flow, all you can do it watch and hear and be mesmerized.
Probably the best blues guitarist of this century, right up there with Mayer.
Probably...but there are still Doyle Bramhall II and Eric Gales out there, yessuh!
Zappalony Yeah, also don't forget to mention Derek Trucks too. Blues is still alive!

Ah yes, very rarely mentioned when it comes to modern guitar legends and 2 of my favourites. Good call fine sir.

Que bestiaa!! maestro
1 dislike. really? how could you dislike this?
The fact that the applauses started too late is saying that people didn’t want it to stop
After SRV, there is no one like Philip Sayce!
High Way Eric Gales may have something to say about that . Give him a listen. Travel outside of SRV box a little bit .
Tommy Katona check him out then....
That TONE
That is a I've got your back love.
very SRV, I love it.
Tommy Katona if u love SRV this guy will blow ur mind
Alternate picking is out this world
This guy so love John Mayer and Vuaghan...
wolfmetal22666 Philipp is better than Mayer.
Darian S.J Oechsler. mayer isnt even close to being on the same page as phillip. hes good.. but hes not this good..
Greatgreaaaaatbest
lanadoors morrison doesn't he look like lastat
Apricots ;o) @philipsayce
Would that be a scarf or a neckerchief?
An ascot?
Got it. Is it being worn in the right context?
Mayer s tone, beautiful
this is Sayce's tone man not Mayer's...
this is SRV's tone , not Sayce's and Mayer's )))

Actually this is Albert Kings tone-SRV's idol. Everyone is influenced by somebody. Philip is an awesome player though and is keeping the blues alive.
Keibee Votran
why people dont know who SRV is is beyond me.
anyone knw what little amp he's using
Jáy Klepács 69 super reverb is his usual
Jáy Klepács it seems to be a Deluxe Reverb.
It's funny we like the same music
🇧🇷
O cara broka.
and you owe robin trower 50 bucks...
so glad you have Johnny Depp his hat back. now give kenny his lick back and give lastat his fucking coat and scarf back....bia

at least you know who to compare him to
Do you even blues bro? Does SRV on Lenny, noodling around or Jimi on Liitle Wing? Come'on that man is a beast who knows how to play the guitar
