Eric Gales -
Eric Gales is a force to be reckoned with in the contemporary Rock-Blues scene. mesmerizing fans around the world with his outstanding vocal ability and his amazing, incomparable guitar virtuosity.
Gales was considered a child prodigy He started playing guitar at the age of 4 and was taught how to play by his older brothers, Eugene and Manuel (pka Little Jimmy King).
He released his first record, “The Eric Gales Band” (Electra), in 1991 at the age of 16.
That same year, Guitar World Magazine’s Reader’s Poll voted Eric as” “Best New Talent.”
In 1993, Eric released his second CDs, “Picture Of A Thousand Faces” (Electra), as well as his self titled third album, “Eric Gales” (Asylum).
In 1996 Eric and two of his brothers teamed up to form The Gales Brothers and recorded “Left Hand Brand,” which was recorded for the House of Blues label.
Through the years, Gales garnered dedicated fans world-wide, including A-List Blues and Rock artist celebrities like Carlos Santana, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, B. B. King, and Eric Clapton.
In 2001 Eric signed on with the Hendrix family affiliated label, Nightbird Records, and recorded the critically acclaimed CD, “That’s What I Am.”
In 2006 Eric recorded another critically acclaimed CD, “Crystal Vision” and his incredible follow-up, “The Psychedelic Underground” for the Blues Bureau Label.
In 2008 released "The Story of my Life”, in 2010 he released "Relentless”, followed in 2011 with his release "Transformation”, in 2012 he released his Double “Live” Album/DVD.
In 2013 he released his 12th album, “Pinnick Gales Pridgen” (Magna Carta).
Also in 2013 he released “Ghost Notes” (Tone Center)
In 2014 he released “Good for Sumthin’” (Cleopatra)
His latest release (#15), “A Night on the Sunset Strip” is due out in 2016.
Eric has often been compared to Jimi Hendrix, and even plays guitar left-handed, like Hendrix, with a right-handed guitar turned upside down, but remarkably, he is right-handed, taught to play guitar left-haned by his left handed brother!
Comparisons to Hendrix notwithstanding, he is no Hendrix clone! Gales has developed his own distinctive blues/rock sound and a unique playing style that embodies and exemplifies his various influences, as diverse as Albert King and Eric Johnson.

THIS NEEDS TO BE AT A BILLION VIEWS
Outside of the SRV live at the El Mocambo, this is probably the best Little Wing cover I've ever seen. Such a creative guitarist.
Totally agree! Eric Gales is stunning! One of the world's most unique and innovative guitarists. And a super nice guy!
We are glad you like what we do! Thanks very much for your kind support!
I agree with you.
@@thatslivetv2572 ,
Outside?
I'm serious yall, is there ANYONE that's a better player AND entertainer? I can't tell you how many times I've watched this. I legit get mad when the ads pop up and interrupt! haha
Ive watched this more tines than you did...and everytine is just woww!
From Jimi to Stevie to Eric.
The only way these songs should definitely progress. I'm excited to see the next one but thank God we're still living in Eric Gales era.
He's not just great, he's having a great time. A joy to watch.
This dude makes his guitar sound so melodic and insane at any given moment. Beautiful!!!
Seriously, wow. It's like black magic, an art that is hidden from most of us 'mere' guitar players.
he's havin so much fun - can't stop smilin
Eric is a genius. Been listening and playing guitar for such a long time now and this guy is like Hendrix in the sense of his innovation and feeling. Holy shit!
6 minutes in and I'm like "Eric's gonna have a heartattack before he gets to Voodoo Child"
One of The Most BadAss things I've ever seen. What "Prowess" is all about. Awesome!!!
Damn, best Little Wing performance ever.
Give me a break
I agree.
I saw Eric live in like 1991 when his band opened for King's X. His group was rock solid and exciting during that show, and he was still in his teens!
Pure melodic mastery and self awareness .... amazing
Holy.... that has to be one of the most amazing clips of Eric Gales I've ever seen, and they all are amazing...
An absolute American original. Can’t say enough good things.........
Omg my new guitar hero!!!
Watched this 3 x in a row. Stunned. Saved.
Did anyone not peep him jokingly go into clifs of dovers that was hilarious lol
Wow! What a talented musician! Choked me up. Spec fukn tacular!
unbelieveable - this guy shot me. so good....
Eric Gales......Gifted Master Axeman.
omg..this guy is awasesome !!
We couldn't agree more!
A modern day Hendrix ! So much feeling
McLaughlin, Trucks, Haynes, Zappa, Duane Allman and Eddie Hazel...and now Eric Gale. Wow.
Chris Freeman aye another trucks fan
Just amazing.
Wow... crazy talented! Someone should really tell him that he's holding it upside down though.... imagine how good he'll be then!
Jimi Hendrix held it the same way
That's because when he started, he began playing his brother's right handed guitar which he turned it around to play it as a left handed would do
that was bad ass !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am just going to say...WOW!!!!
Dude loves it...so much feels!
Eric plays today what he created in his previous life when we used to call him Jimi Hendrix, adding some modern jazz and funky embellishments.
I cant find any other explanation for his unique way to play.
this guy is a genius
Awesomeness!!
hell ya .... absolutely beautiful and then he explodes ..... It's always difficult to judge, but it's the best version I#ve ever heard of this song (yes, including JH) .....
So so good
..................Voodoo Child was frickin awesome....
The perfect Hendrix reimagined.
Amazing
Well sweet sassy malassy that just took my pain away
Hell yeah!
Oh Yeah!! Eric Gales SIZZLES!!! Glad you like it!! Please spread the word!! And please subscribe and Signup at ThatsLiveTv.com Thanks and Stay Cool Charlie Boy!!!
Wow man, made me cry
I swear... I bet he's as surprised as the rest of at what comes out sometimes!!! Eric, so much like SRV in that... he never seems to run out of gas!!! DANG!!!!
The loud chatting of random ppl in the audio really enhances the experience :)
Un puit d'improvisation, en renversé & big cover manche guitare
How people in the audience can just blab away during this performance is beyond comprehension
this is how I would imagine Hendrix to be if he was still alive
Yes indeed.
Eric can play guitar like a cosmos striding super-hero right out of a Jack Kirby comic-book.
Eric Gales is the answer to; "What if the "Silver Surfer played guitar".
No words....
1 guitariste gauche comme moi ! Enfin !
The best.
top 5 in the world..check Guitar mag
encore une bonne leçon
That bass.
Oh Yeah!! Patrick Smith is DY-NO-MITE!! One of the best bass players I've ever seen and had the pleasure to play with. He's definitely "GOT IT". Glad you like it!! Please spread the word!! And please subscribe and Signup at ThatsLiveTv.com Thanks and Stay Cool !!!
I'm not crying! Shut up, you guys!
whats that jazzy scale hes using during little wing so often?
Jimi is listening down, damn he's got it.
Man, this dude makes you want to pick up your ax and have some damn fun:-)
what would jimi have to say about eric if alive today. probably best of friends. strange world we live in.
Eric you did yo Thang
Guitar God
Nice!
guitar strung upside down and played essentially backwards and upside down. amazing backwards brain.
You ain’t let me down yet.
melody
Epic epic jam, sad that the Richard that ran his mouth through this whole recording near the mic was never told to STFU.
Tal Wilkenfend in bass?
LOL. No. Patrick Smith.
Yo ✌🏻
I was wondering why his chords looked odd...then I realized his strings are reversed. You don't know until you know.
Guthrie govan is the best in the world because ERIC GALES IS FROM ANOTHER PLANET
hahaha I like that. Guthrie is a robot in comparison (if comparison makes sense at all..)
dopeness
Excuse my language but his name is "BAD ASS ERIC GALE"
if I wore a hat i'd take it off and bow to Mr. Gales... nb. isn't that a little nod to Monty Montgomery's version of little wing at 2.45 ?
he is hendrix
version très incarnée
purple smile
wat kind of black magic is this?!?!?!
His comments crack me up... Surry but closing your eyes moving around and goofy faces don't make you the greatest ever jimmi Hendrix second coming.
who would down-thumb this vid?
volume trop faible
Why would anybody talk
inthink that many people missed the like button
i like pizza
If, a guitarist is half decent and uses a Strat, he or, she, will sound a bit like Hendrix... Oh yeah, I loved SRV and saw him live.. Eric Gales is better!! SRV was a Hendrix copy cat... Gales doesn't have to do Hendrix covers to prove he's good.......
Muy buen guitarrista. No sé muy bien por qué se ríe. Será por su impresionante calidad de ejecución. Sin embargo no es respetuoso con la obra de Hendrix. Prefiero la versión reciente e innovadora de Jeff Beck sobre Little Wing
no me parece, que gracias tiene ejecutar la obra de otro igual?
my nigga
That drummer was rushing the song😠
This guy has no talent
I'd like to know, how you came to that conclusion
AngusYoungreloaded drugs
You are a Fn idiot!!
Bill f off!..can you play that?.. That's what I thought.. shut up moron!
