I agree... He's WAAAAAY better than Yngwie... He never screws up. Yngwie makes mistakes all the time...missing notes, and hitting open strings. Joe is FLAWLESS. He and Michael Angelo Batio both get no credit, but both could potentially be the best players in the world!
Sad to realise how many incredible musicians like Joe pass unnoticed to many of us. Me myself getting to know him after Max Ostro's playthrough of this splendid composition.
Joe - I've been listening to metal for 35 years and I was introduced to your work about a year and a half ago. I bought everything of yours I can find and I've listened to you virtually every day since. A sincere thank you for what you do and the amazing music you create. I can't wait for the next album.
Thanks aton for your very much appreciated and dedicated support , it really means alot coming from a seasoned, educated metal enthusiast like yourself, I couldn`t be more sincere -- stay metal Joe Stump
im serious......i saw yngwie in 84 and i was blown away yes.........and still WAS until now!!!!!! NOW IM SCORCHED!!!!! THIS IS SO DAMN INCREDIBLE!!!! HE TOOK WHAT YNGWIE DOES,AND CLEANED UP THE PLAYING....AND MADE THE TONE SOOOOOO MUCH CRISPER!!! WOW!! THANKS JOE!!! A HA ANOTHER JOE!!!! THANKS MAN!!!
Hey Jeff thanks quite a compliment and while I really truly appreciate it , to me early Yngwie (Steeler/Alcatrazz/first 3-4 solo albums and all live action during that time) will always be the ultimate benchmark for what would become known as shred . But thanks aton man very cool of you to say
@@joestump1443 wow!! man thanks for responding....u just made my whole day.im also a player..im 54..gre up playin drums,and playin guitar on the side.i quit drums a few years back ,and started collecting ,and playing guitar full time.......if u get bored ...heres a link to my soundcloud...thanks man .....im so honored to have heard from you ...wow....
Your picking control and the emotion you put into your playing even in the darkest tunes never fails to amaze me, great job joe, also beautiful strat, love the color, keep it up man!
He's an awesom player! What I like most is, that he achives his style by using guitars that even beginners could effort! That really shows the quality of Ltd guitars! And that also proofes that the most important thing is your brain, not the 5000 Dollar guitar!😂❤
Excellent musician and a kind person, i remember in the late 90's (there was no social media), the guitarrist from my youth band e-mailed him (trying his luck i guess) asking if he could give him some tips about a certain lick, scale or exercise, whatever, i dont recall, and a week later he received via ordinary mail, an envelope sent by Joe with some signed pictures, a guitar pick and a bunch of hand written sheet music regarding the exercises the guy asked about, u didnt see that often at that time...
I have been following shred guitar since I first heard that Yngwie demo on one of those vinyl 45's you could remove from one of those guitar playing mags back in the day and that is by far some of the most amazing shredding I have heard from then till now.
Joe nunca a pasado desapercibido la gente que realmente conoce sus discos lo admira una cosa es ser exitoso y otra famoso y Joe es exitoso nunca a pasado desapercibido
Today I discovered another great guitar master! I am completely delighted with such a wonderful mastery of the instrument, harmony, expression, melody of the piece! And the fingers flying along the neck riveted my gaze to themselves, to the very last note! Bravo, Maestro!
Thanks Joe for sharing these amazing play throughs of your work. Your playing never ceases to amaze me, the creativity, flawless and seemingly effortless technique is a joy and wonder to behold be it listening or watching. I love how you compose your songs, they always flow so well and are like a musical journey. I don't know if you will ever see this comment but I would like to make a request. I know they are no longer new songs but if you ever have time in your schedule could you please upload play throughs of Pistoleros, The End Approaches and Dark Gift. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and keep on shredding!!
Only one other that does the right-hand barely moving thing... Yngwie Malmsteen! I could watch Joe and Yngwie's right-hand movement (or lack thereof) all day! Great players. And yes, very sad REAL PLAYERS like Joe do not seem to get thew recognition they deserve. Definitely do not see this kind of talent in Alt Rock/Nu Rock/Indie along today's version of Pop. Joe is a fretboard beast... and a real virtuoso. Keep playing, Joe... screw 'em if their thought processes aren't deep and way too surface for many to be able to understand real talent.
Holy cow! This made me pick up my guitar instantly and have been working on playing this insane song. I just can't stop listening to these killer riffs and solos. Practicing that right hand... Joe instantly captured my mind with his playing.
I can't believe no one has written out this amazing piece of music. This entire album is a crowning achievement in neoclassical metal, it doesn't get any better! Joe is like a fine wine, he just keeps getting better and better.
Yo, this guy makes Malmsteen run for his money . Wow, what a true inspiration!! Joe you are awesome my man...unreal!! I sing and play rock , blues and i love what ya do brother! I play my ass off and i don't think people realize the magnitude of this guy! W when i watch i just want to play longer and harder!!
Just love the intro riff :D can't stop playing it, and it's great to improve alternate picking. Your last album is a standard in neoclassical shred, well done ! :)
Amazing track! Just incredible. Your playing is amazingly good and clean. I just love this type of music and guitar playing, perfect blend of melody and fast playing
People say you are just like Msteen, but I think you are better. He bores the shit out of me, you, on the other hand have a melodic sense that makes your work soooo much more interesting. Keep it up fella.
Award Recognition follows: I take it you will be watching the Swedish Asasin online on Saturday night in Vegas? By the way, JS, I hereby commend you with the historic and prestigious Bach Star Award - for you are a Speed Metal Messiah and a true Bach Star.
Professor Joe, post 3 deedle dees and diminished climb lands on a masterful three chords. They are Ab Major, Ab Major 6, then F Major. Joe get the Greer amps Lightspeed organic overdrive pedal, and set all three dials at high noon to start! I took a little leap of faith and picked one up on Amazon on the recommendation of AJ on a woodshed podcast. He said everything you run through it to your amp, preamp or head would become more glued together. My hopes were not that high, but once I plugged it in the organic tone coupled with a touch of delay was just so incredibly euphoric and stellar I had to laugh uproariously before I could seriously blister out some SMM Prelude! 🔥 Fire 🔥🔥!
You are a fantastic player and teacher I have almost all your Cds and guitar methods. I hate people saying you are a bad copy of Malmsteen. Please come to Italy one day!
Joe, you're a fantastic guitar player. I recently discovered your work and I'm amazed. I've bought your book Metal Chop to improve my skills. You're not only a great guitar player but also a good teacher. All the best
Is this official Joe Stomp YT? You are living legend, thank you so much for the books have bought 2 of them and working , great stuff...Do know there are lot of bla bla how Joe is ala YJM but dam they are a lot different, for example no matter that Joe say YJM is big influence for Him i never liked YJM ☺ ..Uli Jon Roth YES and Schneker YES and RB sure...Anyhow in my book Joe is the best neo classical based player ever no doubt in that.
Yes this is my official channel , thanks for the nice words about my playing I really appreciate it , glad that you're finding the books helpful. Best of luck with your playing
@@joestump1443 thank you Maestro for the answer, was asking due to my wish to make something for you in future as thank you for the inspiration and books are super - IMHO they are must for any serious guitar player, no matter that style is rock it is great for any other genre. About your playing that is my honest opinion, when it comes to neoclasical you are without any doubt the best player ever. even some of ala Hendrix songs i had chance to hear on your album are so impressive ''Jimi stomp'' to me sounded what Hendrix would do if He lived a bit longer . '' The Dark Lord Rises'' album is on my play list since i bought it, simply astonishing playing it is real master peace full with emotions, people usually talk about fantastic speed and precision which top of the line but your string bending control and dynamic are out of this world ....Wish that i live in USA would do anything to go to Berklee to study from you maestro Stump, since that is almost impossible those books you have published are so important to me and i'm sure to players who wish to learn from the best ever. Thx once more and i sent you the best wishes from Europe.
This guy needs more credit than people give him. Such a phenomenal musician.
I agree... He's WAAAAAY better than Yngwie... He never screws up. Yngwie makes mistakes all the time...missing notes, and hitting open strings. Joe is FLAWLESS.
He and Michael Angelo Batio both get no credit, but both could potentially be the best players in the world!
@@jasonleighton2122 mab gets credit
Ya dude. He is currently my instructor and the shit he does so casually in practice is mind-blowing...
💫🥂
I agree to this guy is Amazing 💯👍👌
Sad to realise how many incredible musicians like Joe pass unnoticed to many of us. Me myself getting to know him after Max Ostro's playthrough of this splendid composition.
Yeah but this is Joe stump 😂
No fancy editing here with 5 cameras set up...straight up, raw, rock!... one of the best musicians on planet earth...FACT!

Joe is Amazing! The new 2021 Alcatrazz with Doogie is going to be Great!

The Dark Gift is in my top 5 all-time Stump favourites! It's a metal instrumental classic!
One the greatest and most creative player I've ever seen
Amazing song.
i’ve never seen anyone play so fast and their right hand looks like it’s taking it easy. awesome song!!
Only one other that does the right-hand barely moving thing... Yngwie Malmsteen! I could watch Joe and Yngwie's right-hand movement (or lack thereof) all day!
Great players. And yes, very sad REAL PLAYERS like Joe do not seem to get thew recognition they deserve. Definitely do not see this kind of talent in Alt Rock/Nu Rock/Indie along today's version of Pop.
