Talk about goosebumps in the case. I actually do get goosebumps especially where he does that thing he does at 2:00 right on to where he goes back to the main melody of the song..Then at 2:13 you got Chris doing that thing he does with those low bass notes to compliment erics chord progression he's doing.. I listen to this song a lot..
I used to see Eric with The Electromagnets in '74 and '75. he was just 21-22 yrs old and he was beyond amazing even then. i remember standing out in the parking lot during their breaks...nobody saying a word to him. hell, we didn't know what to say! hahaha! hard to believe that this was close to 50 years ago and look at him, still going strong. NO other guitarist ever gets such an emotional response from me. he is just the best...the greatest.
Seems like a musical journey of emotions set to a great and solid mid tempo. Like someone taking their time, not to be rushed, to say something that means a lot to them.
Eric u get me depressed because no matter how hard I practice my guitar, I will never be able 2 play like u! And no one else can play like u either! U r the best!
What is mesmerizing about it. Is you would think when you hear an electric guitar it will sound more hard rock or something. Then you hear this. It's awesome 😂❤
AJAY A I don’t know of any other pieces in this style, but I can give you some good guitarists to check out - Neal Schon, Gary Moore, Carlos Santana, David Gilmour, Buck Dharma
@@ajaya2112 Check out Joe Satriani and Andy Timmons. Timmons is kind of a blend of EJ and Satriani. They and the guys Brett mentioned are all excellent
@@ajaya2112 joe satriani especially "always with me always with you " also Eric Johnson has similar MASTERPIECES you can check out ... Gary Moore isn't bad at all you can check him out too . have a nice day!
I agree, here's a couple of old souls Tal Wilkenfeld a young girl Australian bass player who looks like she's still in high school. But, to hear her play projects another soul.... Another, Joss Stone's voice also demonstrates another soul in her talent... I love seeing that, but at the same time I can't believe what I'm hearing out of such a young person...
The man is amazing...He carries goosebumps in his guitar case-
Great comment - so true. No man gives me goosies like EJ. Although, Satch definitelyserves them up to me, too!
...and causes goosebumps upon goosebumps on me.
and four years later those goosebumps are still there!!

Gem and Emerald Eyes, his best songs for me.
Emerald eyes Austin City Limits
A guitarist who can evoke emotion like EJ is pure gold.... sheer beauty and grace. We are Blessed! :) Have a wonderful day, Everyone!
To you to Lori!
Now THIS is what emotion sounds like.
This has got to go down as one of the best instrumental pieces in history !!!!
You could say that it's a bit of a......gem
I thought the same, until i heared buckethead. Eric is still an amaz8ng guitar player but buckethead is far above. And yes you can judge me :)
@@kropkanadi3470 please name your favourite bucket head song? I wanted to listen.
@@gogokhan95 dont have any favourite one, every piece of his art is amazing
Very well said, could not agree more!
Just when you think you've heard his best songs, nope, one after another and another....i just love Eric Johnson!!! What a musical genius
I have to agree with you. What is regretful, is that it has taken me this long to begin to appreciate what a true musical genius he is.
Dan Wesolick sir kindly some other good guitar solos of Eric
@@shahidarasheed8112 I would recommend cliffs of Dover live version...too many more to name

@@danw.1667 yeah! The one in Austin Tx. 1988 one.
Start is unfathomable.
Take care everyone!
Mr Johnson has the sweetest tone! As soon as you hear that first note, you know it has to be him!
always puts me in a good state of mind
Its MAGIC! :)
This is one of my favorite songs ever. I listen to it when I feel a huge sense of relief. Eric Johnson is simply great.
+MajorasMaskMailman nice screenname
Thanks man. Made it when I was 13.
An absolute gem of music!
really one of his better songs, though he has many great songs. the technique and the almost bittersweet wandering melody... just wow
This melody is marvelous ... Eric is really amazing ...I love him so well !
Nothing but emotion ringing through those pick-ups. Such a warm tone. Sends chills up and down my spine throughout the entire song.
Simply otherworldly beautiful
Un chitarrista raffinato. Bravissimo!
God damn this is divine 💎
What i love about EJ is the soul and honesty in the music , coupled with amazing chops and musical prowess
I saw him in Fiesole too! Concert and masterclass. Oh and I saw him in Rome too this summer.
Yes, he was so great!!
Your song gave me Hope!
man, that bend at 3 seconds in is possibly THE best guitar bend I've ever heard, it's incredible.
Truly amazing
this is so good, even after all these years
Very great EJ for this song ! I do love...

Ridiculous. The greatest player to come along in the last 30 years, IMO. Originality, feel, tone, expression, the best. I could could go on...
Wonderful melodies
Oh, my God, what a beauty it is!❤❤❤
What is mesmerizing about it. Is you would think when you hear an electric guitar it will sound more hard rock or something. Then you hear this. It's awesome 😂❤
Hell yeh I've been listening to Eric since he was in high school love it his sound is unique
awesome, its an unbelievably......stupendous piece of music. I'm in love
This song is just perfect.
This track is a portal allowing the trip to the heart of your emotion , Awesome track :D.
Beautiful instrumen my favorite guitar player
That bridge..... 😍
like with all of the great rock guitar legends .. I recognize Eric's phrasing immediately.
C'est tout simplement de la musique : mélodie, harmonie, sonorité = émotion = beauté...
Those licks at 2:04 and 3:20 are just wonderful. Classic EJ!
Thank you for sharing this Eric. I love your work! I especially love your other track of this album..."Arithmetic." Cheers.
impresionante, una obra de arte
Essa poha meche com a alma. Cada acorde solo é um sentimento diferente.
Obrigado por isso Mestre Johnson
@01:15 the way he articulates that bend sends shivers down my spine
What a load of super high mix emotions can a Musicitian put in this one just song... he is a virtuoso...
The best from him i think, thank you....
#loveeric🤘
So many feels
Божественно!!)
man I saw him in Fiesole Italy in July .. he was so amazing :D
so beautiful.......
I see why Joe Bonamassa is so inspired by this guy. Eric has what Bonamassa is lacking, heart. But, no doubt that will come with age
best ever and no one comes close!
Wow! I am in love with this amazing music!
The great guitar all of time. Eric Johnson
one of the best songs from EJ
So beautiful.....thanks Eric
Sempre raffinato...! Complimenti!
Woow! A Gem indeed!
This is just amazing! Love his guitar tone.
This song belongs on the Fifth Element soundtrack. Idk why, but every time I listen to it, I'm reminded of that movie haha.
νιωθεις αγαπη μονο που ακους αυτον τον ηχο......You feel love only with the sound....Amazing!Eric you are a god
@John Connor That's Greek, "ეს არის ქართული" ---> This is Georgian :) Cheers!
i think this his best work
this is awesone
Meu Deus do céuuuuu que coisa linda!
Esse é o Eric. Fenomenal
Stunningly brilliant on all levels! Can't stop playing the album in my car during the ride home from work!
Sweet guitar work. Well made song.
perfect song , sound of peace ! beautiful theme!
truly awesome :)
I fucking love this song, Eric Johnson is a genius!
Where is this masterpiece on Spotify???
What a pure song! 😁👍👍👍👍👍
amazing
Recently undertook the challenge of learning this piece on guitar.. EJ is in a league of his own.
call it jazz or what you may want to; it sure does sound awesome. Eric Johnson has been my longtime favorite guitarist
dat vibrato at the start
If angels played electric guitars instead of harps, this is what they’d sound like.
It's the first time I'm listening to a piece like this. Could you please give me some similar recommendations?
AJAY A I don’t know of any other pieces in this style, but I can give you some good guitarists to check out - Neal Schon, Gary Moore, Carlos Santana, David Gilmour, Buck Dharma
@@brettolson9544 thanks dude

gotta love his tone :D
Pure sound ... 👌
Beautiful.
Great song 👌
I really like the sound of this. If I ever learn to play...I would like to learn it.
Epic Johnson!
Dude didn't even say one word and has millions cryin'
He said “ahhhh”
Loves this song.
Eric you are a great guitarist :)!
Yes Brother Eric it is one heck of a Gem
Sempre piacevole da ascoltare.
i dont know, some people are born with an old soul, meaning, their past live memories are more accessible leading to a great empathy..
peace!
That is his soul playing. There is not another answer
I’d rate this up there with Cliffs of Dover as far as his signature work goes. This is one of his greatest achievements
and manhattan
And your sweet eyes
And Trademark
It's obvious that guitar players/lovers/historians have mass respect by not leaving any messed posts.

Another, Joss Stone's voice also demonstrates another soul in her talent... I love seeing that, but at the same time I can't believe what I'm hearing out of such a young person...
The search is over. There simply isn't a better guitar tone to be found as demonstrated here.
Very smooth :)
Amazing
my dad when i was still in my moms tummy he used to play this
How old are you?
Unless you are 5 years old, that's not quite really possible.
Genio total ERIC
The guitar is singing!
+Austin Salsas. Pretty much... Epic tone and melody
This amazing piece reminds me of classic sonic the hedgehog
Haha, a sonic movie ad just played before this video!
Wow! first I listening this was 6k views and now 300k!!
I agree, very good, BRAVO ERIC!
i like everything hes thebest guitarist texas has ever grown
Jose Bermudez it's a tie SRV was eric's equal
