I am in the barbershop with this man right now. He is down to earth and has a great sense of humor. Great talent!!
Bullshit
God bless you, ans god is Eric Gales
Tight fade to top it off
@@ibec69
No. It's true.
Eric IS a great talent.
✋Hand to God.✝️
@@ibec69 Oh dear Lord why does everyone think everyone else is full of crap?
I've been playing guitar for 20 years... How have I never heard of Eric Gales before?!!? God bless youtube recommendations, I can't get enough of this guy.
@Margaret Cunningham Thanks for the tip try him I did. I also booked to see Eric here in the UK 4/June/22 only turns out Dom (I just bought his album) is supporting him. Amazing, thankyou!
Check out his performance at Woodstock 94! Santana invited him on to perform with him! 🤘👽
He descended from heaven only recently
Going to have to go on one of these cruises 👍
Eric Gales isn't naturally left handed, he learned to play guitar from his left handed brother, and just thought that was the way you should play the instrument. Amazingly talented guitarist.
Gary Moore was naturally left handed but played right handed. Interesting thing they have in common....playing the opposite of natural.
That’s insane!! Crazy skills
@@davidrpriest Same with me. I was a kid and always wanted to play like my dad. He's right handed and I'm left handed but I just learned to play right handed and never had a problem. I do get some laughs though when people see me playing and writing with opposite hands.
Maybe I should buy a lefty and learn all over again 🥴
@@davidrpriest same as me..first time learned play guitar right handed and now I can play both hand
This guy seems so genuine. Just an amazing guitarist and performer Thanks for sharing!
It's incredibly rare that someone takes a Hendrix track and reworks into something even the man himself would very likely have applauded.
What I like about Gales is he has that Buddy Guy thing going on whereby he almost treats the guitar as a toy, has huge amounts of fun playing and gives it all to the audience.
Eric Gales and Buddy Guy onstage at the same time would be so hot it should be made illegal.
R.Walt61 I think Gales & Guy at the same time would melt the stage
@Bob Smith LOL!
th-cam.com/video/UJ4j1QEDiaA/w-d-xo.html
And always acts as though he is learning from those he shares the stage with , would love to see a Victor Wooten colab someday!
This guy will give your strict school guitar teacher a heart attack!
Ja man
And skin them alive with his playing
Best blues comment all year.
a very very underestimated guitar master virtuoso...lots interesting chords progressions and changes. jazzy bluesy
BHAAAAAAA breaking all rules! The teacher would short circuit 🤣🤣
Then give huge props that doesn't matter how you got this great you just are! Usually the best are self taught and play by ear...NATURALLY just do it!
Just unreal. He's a modern legend.

This cat could fall down a flight of stairs with 3 guitars strapped around his neck and sound better than just about every other guitar player on the planet. Truly a rare talent.
Eric Gales, Gary Clark jr, Marcus King. I'm lovin' the contemporary blues scene.
MaxKol Eric is from 1980s
You forgot Kingfish ✌️
@@nazarenkodenysIs he still around?
@@manfredaspundzius9264I didn't know about Christone "Kingfish" Ingram until you recommended him to me. WOW! Add him to that list.
MaxKol forgot Phillip Sayce
It hurts my brain to imagine how he plays like that left-handed AND upside down!
O damn. It is upside down.. that's confusing just to look at!
SwiftnessGamer Nope. This guy has the bass strings where the treble strings would go and vice verse. Jimi restrung the strings so they were in a normal orientation even though the guitar was upside down.
Jared Wertz oops sorry 😬
It's not harder, man!
yeah. he is using right handed guitar and string set up, playing it upside down. high e at top, low E at the bottim. while Jimi and most left handed restrung the string with common orientation, 1-6 = e to E
Eric is the future of Blues and the future of Rock & Roll! We need to make him more famous!
I had the great fortune to see him in Savannah, GA 25 years ago touring to support The Eric Gales Band’s debut record when he was just 16 years old old. It was one of the most amazing shows I’ve ever seen. Their first two releases are finally on iTunes.
The dude is genuine and you can see he puts his heart into what he does.
Dude gave me chills on a 90 degree July afternoon!
God this guy is so good.
Edit: I typically don't watch the entire video of guitarists going crazy cuz it typically ends in the same place. But this GUY! God damn he caught my attention.
My Mother always told me that it's what they put in our Hearts. You are Amazing!!!! Mom did a great job...
This just made me giddy. Slapped my knee and laughed at how filled with soul this guy's playing is
He is the child of Jimi !!!! That feel and fresh ideas ! Great !!!! Black have something in the blood that it's incredible !
Love the way he holds himself on stage, like he owns the place. Cause he does, literally the man.
I’m a simple man. I see Eric Gales using the Eric Johnson signature Strat and I click.
u are a simple idiot..be fuckin original....
He must like the EJ strat. You would think he would be playing a custom shop, especially being at Sweetwater music. I'm sure they'd loan him any guitar they had. This dude is bad to the bone, give him a squire and he'd still sound amazing. He really deserves his own signature model. I would buy it.
Jonathon Rich He has a signature model with a company called Magneto.
@@aarondcruz2458 then why does the neck have a Fender logo? Sounds like EJ tone
@@maryhough3889 It has a Fender logo because it's a Fender guitar. Jonathan said he thought Mr Gales deserved his own signature model and Aaron was simply stating that he already has one from Magneto.
Reminds me of why I started watching Joe Bonamassa back when he was younger. He played crazy like this and I wish he'd do it again. This guy brings it back and I hope he stays true to himself and continues to impress us with unbelievable playing!!!
Eric Gales is just off the chain. His choice of rhythm, runs, and alternate chords just blow me away.
This is how a guitar should sound out & played 🤣😆😂👍👍👏🏾👏🏾 Great share. Thanks 😊 #staysafe ❤
This is why I love watching talented people play ...... just so so so good!!!! 👌👍👍👍👍👍
Man, he really knows how to put a tastefull twist on covers. amazing guitarist
78 people that have no appreciation of musical virtuosity, pure talent and artistic magnificence.. Eric is in a league with the all time guitar greats, awesome
You are jimmy reborn! Glorious! You do my shoulder good! Breathtaking playing!
Praise this talent!
A lefty who can play YOUR guitar. Amazing!
He's not naturally left handed, actually. He just started playing the guitar upside down because he copied his brother who as left handed and played as such. Quite interesting, really.
This man and his band, and this performance, taps into the beyond....... so great!!!!
Natural showman and fabulous talent - Looks like he's having FUN
Eric does what I call, "letting it fly". And he does it well.
What fun in a fabulously talented guitar world
and he sings al well to 👍
Damn he plays his ass off! He even showed his classical repertoire. And the band... they showed their ass big time! Very, very, very cool!!
My friend’s husband told me to listen, LOVE IT!
EVERY now and then (LONG time between), I will come across talent/performance that is so far beyond great, that I either I want to go back to bed and put my pillow over my head AND/OR inspire me to write and play my best for a year or two .. or more! Seeing this video this morning was one of those times !! Breathtaking Mr. Gales !! I am a songwriter and play keys. THANK YOU for the inspiration for a long time!! THIS IS NOT A BRAG but I knew and played and recorded with Jimi back then! I I was blessed to be there in the "scene" in 1968-69. He would have LOVED to hear and see you. He was one of the kindest human beings I ever meant. Thank you for your inspiration and who you are - it's easy to see !! AND your band is "OFF the charts" !!! Peace !!
woah you're apart of the freakin rock legend. hey dude. im not worthy
Duane as you and Eric spoke about inspiration first time I heard RED HOUSE I said I want play guitar like that it took me a year to save my money I was 14 back then everybody said I was wasting money because like most it would just sit in the case in some closet but here's my point that inspiration is powerful music is everything to me and that one song called RED HOUSE BY THE GREAT JIMI HENDRIX INSPIRED THAT 14 YEAR OLD BOY THAT THESE DAYS NOW AT 51 YEARS OLD I HAVE A LITTLE RECORDONG STUDIO SET UP IN MY HOUSE WITH 12 GUITARS THAT LINE THE ALL 4 WALLS IN THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF THAT CREATION BACK THEN AND YES MUSIC WHEN PLAYED FROM WITHIN ONE'S SOUL IS POWERFUL AND WHEN INSPIRATION TAKES OVER YOU JUST HANG ON AND ENJOY THE RIDE AND GIVE THANKS THE ARTIST THAT CREATED THE MASTERPIECE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR STORY YOU INSPIRED ME TO TELL MINE BLOWS MY MIND YOU HAD A PART IN IT WAY BACK THEN AS WELL
How cool is that, and you have every right to brag about playing with Jimi if you want to ;)
Probably the greatist guitarist I've ever known and an amazing friend I love you Eric!
Eric is quickly becoming one of my fav guitarist. He’s way more than a blues player.
Eric Gales is simply the best guitarist I've ever heard.
Good music never went anywhere and this proves it. Eric has the funk, blues and the jazz noted to satisfy! So good!
Dude just beautifully covered the 60s, 70s and eighties in 15 minutes !
This cat is from another planet.
Billy Wagner I wanna go there
@@michellecook-hill me too!
Nah...Chicago...😎
Yes. Planet awesome!
hes absolutely fantastic!!
I’ve only just discovered this man. What an incredibly unique player. I like his playing a hell of allot.
I’ve always loved his playing... but this was truly special!
Absolutely brilliant and an incredible talent. First saw him at Terra Blues on Bleecker St in NYC 1992. Maybe 20 people there and he and his band completely owned the place and were unforgettable
the way he blends arabic and indian scales throughout is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! not a better guitarist ALIVE.
stop overstating things
we all are entitled to our opinions.
@@sawdust6968 except you shut up
go away TROLL!
AWEsome ! Play on, Eric !
Man his style of playing and performing is beyond...
#UNIQUE!
PS. There is nobody like him!
☆☆☆☆☆
I don't know what it is about Eric's style but, there's something wicked here. There's something about this guy over most players that really impresses me quite a bit over the mainstream "Guitar Gods". His picking technique is just wicked not to mention (more so) his phrasing. Wicked guitarist even when running Eric Johnson style patterns. I've seen a number of his vids on here - hats off to Mr Gales. Killer player.
Best guitar playing I’ve heard yet, blew me away the first time I heard this!
One of my favorites.
hes not just playin guitar...hes having fun
Extraordinary player. Been listening to Gales since his first LP.
Eric is sounding better than ever. Hands down my favorite guitarist of all time, easy.
The amount of Groove this guy can handle is unheard of, what a genius!
Damn! Phew! I started listening to this guy when he was 16 and he just gets better!
Eric Gales is GOD! Been a fan for over 20 years.
OMG... I just realized that he is not only playing southpaw, but the strings are left in the righty orientation!!!
In the immortal words of Wayne's World... "I am not worthy"!!!
Pretty likely in Albert King's tuning, tho.
Well, if you start learning that way, and only ever played that way, it's not harder...
I saw the album cover of him Holding. Strat like that, and was confused, so I’m here. Just as confused as you all are
Damn, i just realized that now...mind = blown
Yeah,,cool huh
Totally floored you cant teach feel! It comes from the soul like a eagle flying man.
he might literally be the best guitarist i've ever seen
So it would seem.
Definitely the most soulful I have ever witnessed
So nice to see him sober, he now shows his real potential, which is pretty unique...wow
I rarely get intimidated or discouraged but it really is hard to even pick up the guitar after witnessing that kind of raw talent and well trained skill.
the diversity and the mixture of techniques and his voice changes, I honor him
And I don't know what health struggles he is dealing with, but I will keep him in prayer. GOD is good!
I just love this guys poly rythmic style. Stacking up the rythm.
I saw Eric Gales perform in a club in California was back in 1993. I was very impressed with him, and I thought that he'd become a big star. He did not become anywhere near as big of a star as I thought he'd become, because he is still an amazing musician.
Beautiful human being. Genius musician. Amen to music being the answer to our problems! Blessings and health to you!
Music makes it ALL happen. Thank you Eric. I've never heard anybody quite like you.
Watching in 2021 -- man, I can't wait to go to a live show, and seeing this would be AMAZING!!! I bow down to you Eric.
Dude is a living LEGEND..........Holy smokes
Unique. He is one of the greatest guitarists I have ever heard, and I have heard a lot :-)
Meu sonho é ir em um show para ver você tocar de perto muito obrigado por você existir!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Utterly amazing playing. Incredible feel. The harmonic and melodic stuff he throws in is crazy
That mixture of funk and blues! What a great talent Mr. Gales is.🤩
First time I saw Eric Gales many moon ago I was like 😲...Holy Shhhhhh...! I still feel that way. Dude rules.
The Man can play and "Music is Life"!!!!!!!!!
I think Jimi would be blown away! Bravo!
He is an amazing guitarist and performer. Thank you Eric. Keep on spanking the plank as Rev. Gibbons from Z Z Top describes it (stroking the fretboard with those magic fingers). He has. E. N. E. R. G. Y.!!! Wow. You inspire me in my guitar playing.
It’s one thing to play a right handed guitar and restring the guitar to left but learning upside down guitar really gives this mans style so much unique character
Sometimes I think I’m a great player from listening to all the masters. Then there is Eric... dude is a beast!
When i grow up i want to be like Eric Gales! what a beast!
I know and admire Eric Gales for more than 20 years now, and it´s amazing how far he went musically and as a human being.
You are the absolute BEST Eric! Thank you for your inspiration every single day. You are a truly special person in my life. God Bless and much love to you, always!
I'm here on JoBo's recommendation, and am pretty blown away! This guy is awesome!
Same. I'd never heard of him. Fucking awesome.
Eric Gales and the Suge Knights is a great band name.
This master can play a squier strat into any amp and sound awesome. He is a genius. So musical and nice to lister. He have feelinc and technique. Really impressionist player.
Eric Gales is sooo under rated
Totally amazing!
This dude just seems to get better and better each time I see a video of him!!
Been aware of Mr. Gales for a long time but only just getting into him - what took me so long?! He's GREEEEAAAAAAT!
absolutely amazing performance with a wonderful speech to top it off. what a talented man.
Wow! Amazing
Through being taught left handed on a right handed guitar he developed quite the techniques of playing, I love it!
I was just introduced to Eric Gales for my 72nd birthday in Sarasota on 2/8/24. Love him!!! You can see that he feels the music in his body and soul ❤❤
I just love how he's doing new things to these classic songs. What a refreshing approach!
Damn!! I had to put my parka on because of the sudden rush of chills listening to this great music. what a treat to listen and watch and toe tapping and head shacking.
I love how he throws in the classical piece and then goes into Kashmir.
I've never seen a performer and instrument so utterly bound into a single living musical creature pouring out its soul for our sheer enjoyment.
Thank-you Eric and your amazing band 🙏
H O L Y S H I T !!!!!!!!!!!!! That was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
UNBELIEVABLE. I love this group
