Mr Johnson is the Gandolf of his music talents. Thank you sir
Excellent talent with multiple studies of the guitars abilities including finger's capabilities. When young, enjoy your hands. When you are older, you'll understand my personal opinion. Especially being a hard labor worker my whole life, mixing, carrying and toweling concrete. Sun, rain, or cold. Thanks Eric Johnson for the music creativity. I enjoyed seeing several times, live.
Oops, trowelng concrete
Love this and the rest of Tones ! Wish he would play this live again !!
Man 1984 eric johnson an his music associates an his soon cd cant remember name. Bur wish coyls go back in time an see broadcast rather then have that concert thank existence on cd an dvd pkg. That man is truely a guiter wizard wonder an so humble an polite. Thanks!!!
It's a Texas hill country thing in spring time. (I lived in San Antonio five years and my kids have lived in Austin for the last decade). Eric captures the divine love that surrounds this place beautifully! ❤
There's a place, I dream of, far away
There's a girl living there by the bay
She works at sea, for the land propriety
It's here duty, when they call, she's got to go
Oh, now I'm waiting for you
Soon again we'll meet
Yes, I've been hoping for you
I want to retreat to Bristol Shore
The Neptune World, she loves most, with ocean breeze
She protects the Trident Coast and seven seas
'Till she returns, I must find somewhere to go
She's been delayed at the Gulf of Mexico
Oh, I've been waiting for you
Soon you will arrive
Oh, yes I'll be hoping for you
Underneath the sky at Bristol Shore
(Oh, at Bristol Shore)
There's a light shining near, off the bay
Through the siren winds I hear, that girl say
Soon we will meet, there will be another time
That we connect, let it be another time
Oh, I'll be waiting for you
Keep an open door
Yes, 'cause I'm hoping for you
There beside the sea at Bristol Shore
Soon we will meet, let it be another time
That we connect, let it be another time
Oh, I'll be there waiting for you
Yes, I'll be hoping for you
Oh, I'll be waiting for you
Lord knows I'm hoping for you
I'll be there waiting for you
And I'll be there hoping for you
Oh, I'll be waiting for you
(Soon we will meet)
I'm only hoping for you
Down at Bristol Shore...
5:01 most passionate bend I’ve ever heard
Such incredible musicianship, it leaves one almost speechless. Trying to describe Eric's playing to someone who has not heard him is like trying to explain the color blue to someone who has never seen it. Just amazing!
EJ just love you man I've been your fan and follower since my teenage days and now I'm running 50 👍💓 your music never cease to exist on my daily list to power up my mind 👍👍👍👍👍
The guitars skills, songwriting, musical feeling is out of this world
such a great mixture of complexity and simplicity
Mr johnson I'm almost fifteen and I've been listening to you since I was eleven and let me tell you nothing you have written is anything short of a masterpiece. I've been to two of shows at the paramount in austin one was the up close 2011 your and I just saw you with mike stern last month. You are a huge inspiration to me and make me want to keep playing. Maybe one day I'll bump into you at austin vintage guitars :) .
Respect!
Pat Metheny is great from the jazz improvisation perspective but I like Johnson better than anyone with his chords and songs as well as phenomenal precision
Hey man how was college
Thanx Eric have follow you and your music since 1990 when i heard your album *Ah via musicom and the song *Desert Rose... 🤗💞🎙️🎸🎶🎵💙🌟
Eric Johnson 1984 austin city limits an island of unique hope
This may be the most poetic comment I've ever read online... Bravo...!!!
I remember this song from the random Spotify algorithm and didn’t know the name, so I searched the only thing I remember (“Soon I’ll be waiting for you - Eric Johnson”). And I’m so so glad I found it with an incredible live version like this. Eric is a huge inspiration to me as a musician and I really hope I can close to his level someday. I have almost complete the cliffs of Dover solo and it’s like a dream to play that song. But although that piece is the most famous, Eric has a very lot of good songs such as “Manhattan, SRV, or even the new ones like Stratagem. I would like to encourage anyone who reads this -long- comment to give Eric a chance a listen to every album he has; they’re not a lot, so it isn’t like listening to (for example) more than 10 albums, as it happens with Dream Theater.
Anyway, if Eric gets to read this comment someday I would love to let him know that I really appreciate him as a musician and as a person -as long as I “know”him-.
Much love. Cheers
Masters of tones,songs and etc...
Still fresh, menacing every so often, melodic and out off this world unique. Shout out to Rob and Steve, serious talent they posess as well.
Up until now I'd been focussed on ah via musicom even though I own tones. This vid reminds me how wonderful the music is on tones that I've not listened to for along time.
It's remarkable how he reproduces his singing & complex guitar playing so effortlessly live. In fact some of it sounds even better than the studio recordings. He's amazing
I personally think Tones edges out AVM.
Thanks for sharing Eric... good pure-hearted music in this world in need of.
With Rob Alexander and Steve Meador,fantastic show!
Brilliant song
I remember as my dad read newspaper on front duplex porch he would occasionally ha or talj about unusual storys or articles an this was one of Evansville Courior talking about old guy driving lawnmower like 380 miles etc. Well this was Mr Alvin Straight. Back in early 1990s
The amazing EJB
I tried to play the intro on the drums yesterday. Its harder than it looks those are some fast triples!
August 17 HBD ME LIVE ERIC !
I think the crowd had him in that slit slump, nuthin like deer in the headlits, lile do they know the superstar he would become, way it is isnt it? A prophet always has honor cept in his own country..
Genius
I love Eric !
Go to Priest Lake I'd and look at the Sunset from Sundance Mountain !!
Saw this lineup Rockfest 1984 (Houston). .Hey Boy! (later Velvet Hammer), Bill Hicks, and Pat Travers. .
3:00 wow. Inspiration for "cliffs of Dover" begins here ???? Eric definetely in love with England.. or a girl of England, who knows ?
He already had cliffs at this time and was doing a pedal point phrase in that too
Sometimes his voice comes distorted but his 🎸 Play compensates and fills the lack
Beautiful voice. You are a very good guitarist!
There will be another time. Take care of your mother's needs in Texas but remember for me that she is no longer here. She is with God now & nothing can harm her. Not any sickness or disease. No evil of any kind. Her youth & health restored. Still I understand the absolute trauma that you as her son are suffering. You need to consider cancelling some dates of your tour. A two month window would not be excessive. Time for the Johnson team to Circle The Wagons. Because you need to adjust to this. So glad you just released Song For Irene & the 6 String Saga about the humble acoustic guitar you had restore to create her song with. I think they were done with great love. Perhaps you can find a photograph of your parents when your parents were a young couple in love so we can see what they looked like then. Or a photograph of your parents with all of the children. To the best of my knowledge you have 3 sisters & one brother. I could be very wrong. But I do think it is time to share a tiny bit about your parents & siblings. Maybe even a photograph of you & your father during your Africa years. I think your father was genius like yourself. He knew you would not survive this world at that point of your life unless he could surround you in as much God as he could find. Africa was brilliant. Everywhere you look you see God's creation. It's undeniable & your father was a great man. A truly great man. He fought the devil himself for his son fearlessly. I am so thankful. So please find a good photograph of you & your father in Africa while you are finding a photograph of your parents in the thick of life but deeply in love. I'm sorry I never met your parents but I assume they knew all about the incredible son God had entrusted to their care. Simply call if you need me for anything. Anita xo
Why is he playing it so fast? It feels like the video is sped up.
Here, here!
Moonlight Beach is right behind the very best fish tacos in the world & the Pacific Ocean is so much warmer in July & August. Anita's Fish Tacos sells out every day. It looks like a Hepatitis stand but I promise the food is incredible. xo
I think also he JUST got the dumble steel string singer, ( fast amp) n his chops were a catching up! :)
Are there any good quality recordings of Mountains? It's my musical fantasy to hear one!
EJ Just uploaded a great quality live version on his TH-cam channel
@@nickkokenspargermusic8666 I saw it! Thank you.
Is that a Dumble in the background?
Yes Sir! 🎸🎶
A steel string singer nonetheless. An amp nowadays that cost more than my house 😂
Won’t be doing that on my 12 string anytime soon.
Why are his songs about England?
maybe his heritage not sure
@@RUARI-mi1yt it's interesting
Love this track - I wish it had been played at the regular speed instead of sounding so rushed. Still awesome though. EJ is a genius
felt the same, tried watching it at x0.75 but then it got way too slow lol
@@eduardokoji haha. Also I’m not sure the audience are awake.
Sorry about the typos auto correct always messes me up
his songs sounds better than cristopher cross
💦
