The number of upside down guitars outnumbered right side up that night.
emphasis on "upside down" - Eric Gales is the only other person besides Sonny that I've seen play a right-hand-strung guitar left-handed.
@@bcmanucd didn’t Hendrix and Dick Dale play the same way?
@@ChristopherKose Also MonoNeon the bass-GUITAR
@@ChristopherKose Hendrix played a right-handed guitar left-handed, but he also strung it left-handed (low strings on the top). You got me on Dick Dale, he is a truly unique case - he played left-handed guitars left-handed, but strung them right handed (low strings on the bottom).
@@gtgaxiola True, MonoNeon plays left-handed with right-hand stringing (lowest strings on bottom). I think this is more common for bass than 6-string guitar, since bassists rarely fret full chords.
Eric gales can bring world peace with this solo
Does anyone have more talent and less of an ego than Cory Wong? He's an ace who hand built his fighter jet, and is just as eager to hop in the back seat and run the radios while some else flies it, and seems delighted by what he sees. Props, brother!
That is a nice image, and spot on!
Fighter jet is such a wicked analogy for his band. They are CERTAINLY not a Cessna!
Everybody sits in the back seat when Eric Gales is playing😜
Even the song “Meditation” is Cory’s vehicle to shine and he watches Gales take it for a joyride. ❤❤
WORD!
players like sonny, eric, and mono neon are beginning to make me feel like it's us and not them that are holding the instruments upside down 😂
Forreal. Lol
Don’t forget jimi....we’ll sort of
Doyle Bramhall Jr II
so true

Eric Gales is stupid good. A true Jedi who is one with the flow.
This video made me think about how amazing a Derek Trucks collab would be
They have collaborated before. Look up their cover of Layla
@@15nicinho I meant Wong and Trucks but thanks for this, it’s amazing.
Every time I've ever went to an Eric Gales show, I left exhausted. Every show was an emotional rollercoaster, and a religious type of experience. It takes a special talent to do that!
Eric is THE best on this planet.
I went into the show ready to be blown away but having Eric Gales come out and pull this performance off absolutely hit me with a nuclear bomb. I hope that you will put up a video of what he said about Petar and Sonny...it was great.
What was said??
I would like to know too
He talked about how sonny worked with prince and I can’t exactly remember what he said about petar
So, what did he say about Petar?
@@veljkosimovic2302 Veljooo kralju! 🤘
This is absolutely disgusting in the best possible way. When Eric unleashes like this, I can feel his deep gratitude for being alive because he knows he's dodged death more than once. Thank you so much for making this happen.
That’s a fact. We are all lucky he made it through in one piece.
Man, this dude really feels it like Jimi, even tho he's got a completely different vibe. But he just feels it. what a genius
Yeah it has that same melodic approach, sort of "dirty technicality", tons of character, no fear of doing something a little different...
I would never mistake one's playing for the other, but they definitely have the same energy.
No way we express ourselves differently
Yep, same here. Kinda feel Jimi a bit the first time I saw him
This man is playing that guitar to within an inch of both of their lives.
that solo went on for a bit too long...
@@vincentl.9469 no it didn't
How did Eric's guitar not catch fire? Absolute legend.
EVERY GUITAR LEGEND HAS THEIR MOST AMBITIOUS. EFFORTS HAVING SAID THAT. MR. ERIC GALES IS CERTIFIED
#1 GUITAR PLAYER IN THE WORLD 🎉
I met Eric Gales after one of his UK shows last year and reminded him he was still due a collab with Cory... a live Eric solo on my favourite Cory track? That'll do nicely☺️
What a great show - blessed to be there and glad to be able to relive it. For Cory to hand off what is usually a big solo moment for him to Eric was not only beautiful and graceful but wise!
Just saw him in Atlanta and this was the encore, which Cory solo'd. Definitely really cool to see him share this big moment, love how the band is so selfless and everyone gets their own moment to shine. Truly an amazing performance!
That’s what I thought too, such a good show I love how much fun everyone was having. No egos just everyone working together to create amazing music
Im a musician... 30 years playing músic... This skinny White guy, Cory... He gave me back the pleasure of listening inspired performances every single Time i listen to him... Thank you Cory, you make me love music more every single day
lowkey got tears watching this
I met him twice and told him the same thing. He's a national treasure
I was at this show and was absolutely blown away by the level of playing by everyone. I wish they included Cory's comment at the end, "now that's a lead guitar player". So fortunate to have seen this live.
"now that's a rhythm guitar player!" -- everyone about Cory Wong
There are great guitar players, there are legends and then there is Eric Gales.. God bless you Eric
And a higher calling
I'm crying. Some people are on this planet, and we know why. Eric Gales is one of them. The 'cat is kinda like Jeff Beck. Flies just below the radar. HIs runs are just sick. And he's playing upside down, so different phrasing. Dude is humble too.
I try not to look up Eric Gales on TH-cam and binge through it all in one night. I love when I occasionally stumble upon him in videos like these and get blown away every. single. time. As if it was the first time I heard and see him play. What a legend. 🙏🏻
ERIC GALES...THE GREAT..! 👑
you guys are f**king awesome.
EG is just a deity on the strings. I can't get enough of that raw feel and emotion. The man is a genius!
I've owned guitars longer than this guy has been alive...and I never hear of him till the algorithm paid off...I'm freaking all kinds of impressed! WOW!
Love his return to the theme at 4:45
One or two notes from Eric Gales and everybody's smilling 🤘🎸💜
Gales is the man, saw him at a small venue in omaha and he burned it down man. Melted our faces into liquid puddles right onto the floor.
Never miss a Sunday show
Wow! Killer perfomance! Epic Gales, of course!
Absolutely stellar show from Cory and beyond up there. Not only did Cory to give this big moment to Eric, but he consistently shines the light on all of the other players up there when he could easily take more spotlight for himself. He’s a class act and the audience gets a fantastic show as a result!
These collaborations always make me so happy watching them share a moment and not make it a competition
This is fire
Un grande chitarrista, il numero 1.❤
Cory is one of the finest new acts on the scene. His playing is another level, his work rate is amazing and his humility is the icing on the cake.
For me, as a left hander that plays lefty strung lefty, Erics playing IS alien. Most of us lefties can bang out a few chords and simple lines on a right handed/strung instrument, because there are times it the only way to sit in and jam. I think Hendrix was very proficient at this too. But to eveolve to the point that your technique is no longer about "coping" with the RH strings ... Thats Eric gale territory! Theres a liquid flowing quality to his soloing which is like nothing I have really heard others do. Genius
What a legendary beast.
The way Eric hangs onto that chord at 0:38...! Such a great guitarist man.
Jah’mon! I was wondering if any other alien - err…”human” listened to such bravery and control. Excellent Master Eric! I’m humbled when TheMusicUniverse sends such melodic codes😉🎶
I met this Legend in Wichita, KS at the Wave venue! Ally was there too! Rocked Old Town until the bricks were breaking! Thanks a million!
Ok Eric. Thanks for the demo. I'll buy the guitar if you are sure it will let me play like that. 😎😸
Much love.
Get to see Eric again Friday here in Raleigh… at a much smaller venue. Gonna be amazeballs as usual… and as a left handed person who plays standard right handed, I’ve been doubting that decision ever since I saw Eric play for the first time… But it’s been 35+ years so there’s no goin back now.
What a beast! Jeez
This was what I needed today. He brang the fire and the band is so good behind him..just money.
eric is a open conduit, he lets the musical energy flow through his finger tips. Its awesome to see and a really ballsy way to play, really puts yourself out there exposed.
Insane. Amazing. Incredible. Damn I wish he was on the Portland dates...
Eric went off ❤️🎸❤️🎸
So cool! I saw Mr. Gales way back (2000) with B.O.C. here in El Paso. He was awesome then . . . he's even awesomer now!
Eric Gales is just top shelf!
I never expected to see Eric gales in this one. That caught me by surprise. And I LOVE IT!
I was lucky enough to catch the St. Louis show last week, and it was one of the best concerts I've ever seen. I'm still smiling almost a week later. Go see these guys immediately!
Beautiful and WOW !!!!❤❤❤❤
Im glad to see Eric getting the credit he deserves. Absolutely killer player.
Eric Gales is one of the greatest ever!
YESSIR, I LOVE WATCHING REAL FEEL AND THE TRUTH OF HOW LIFE THROWS U A CURVE BALL, BUT IN THE LORD, IT'S ALRIGHT, I TELL U AGAIN,IN THE LORD IT'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT. ROCK ON E.MAN
He's in concert later this year 20 mins from me. Can't wait to go!
Eric is superhuman on the guitar. First saw him 30 years ago and he blew my mind then.
KING
Absolute Killer!
You really can't much better than that! But, you just keep on going and reaching for Galaxy's that are still out there beyond the horizon!!
I fckn love Eric gales
this show was absolutely nuts, what a pleasant surprise this guest appearance was! thanks cory for an absolutely killer night and thanks jay for sticking around for a photo!
Honestly I you don't see many players these days ripping the blues as hard as Gales does. Reminds me of some of the vicious solos that Stevie Ray would play live. Aggressive as fuck.
Eric Gales has gun powder pulsing through his veins. His music explodes out of him. like a super hero with a guitar.
Insane.
One Word' Awesome!!!!
I was right at the front and so this was a really awesome experience!
Lefty like Jimi Hendrix...Fantastic🎸💥
If Hendrix and Eric Johnson had a baby it would be Eric Gales!!! One of theee best around 🙌
Hell yeah!! :)) Talent, hard work and fire = fireworks!
No better guitar player in the world right now than Eric. So much fire!
I agree.
Amazing night. Couldn’t believe all the talent and this is before Victor Wooten even came out.
speachless-tx a lot for your life but my life as well
This guy is an alien. His phrasing is too authentic, no other one play those kind of lines.
This might be the perfect solo
His choreography within the solo is astounding! The build ups/releases and the effects like the open string attack and the octaver thingie + that PHRASING keep the really intense flow of notes interesting... what an outstanding masterpiece!!! And... THAT BAND!!! Cory you are awesome!
There are few guitar solos that are raw like this, and get you right in the gut. This is one of them. Absolutely astonishing.
Never expected to see this - Eric and Cory - the planets must be aligning.
What he has, I don't believe can be taught!
Powerful emotions when Eric plays. Touches me every time! Thank you Cory! My son and I have been to two of your shows in Indy. Moments like this are one of many things I respect about you and your band.
Off the charts - very amazing
This dude has got his place amongst the the best! U a bad mo fo eric!
Gales has an amazing feel for guitar and his sound is all his👍🏽🫵🏽👏🏽✌🏽
Cory--you are an awesome bass player. Eric Gales, every time I see a clip of him playing--I'm like wow!!! All I can see about this performance is, if that is what meditation is then I'm going to do it every day so I can play my bass like Cory and my lead guitar like Eric. 1 Luv❤🎸
Wonderful
Love Eric, a master and so organic, love how he keeps hitting the strings in open (although not in key) just shows the passion and feel, he doesn’t care that’s it’s out of tune, it fits in the performance. All FEELS. 🙂
Wow! That was crazy!!!!
Crazy good!
Please!! Please!!! Upload the entire night!!! This was a amazing experience to be at live!!! And Not to mention Trousdale!!! The didn’t miss one single note..
My voice still hasn’t recovered. Come back to Raleigh!!!
Yes! I can't wait to see Eric at the Rory Gallagher fest this year in Ireland. Always the best weekend of music in Ireland. Buzzing!
Wow!
That's insane!
Speechless
I recommend this clip to my friends as an introduction to Cory Wong after seeing the clip of Meditation on a boat. The man has zero ego taking a back seat on his signature song.
One of the best!!
The speed and fluidity of Randy Rhodes the blues chops of all of them.
Another very good lefty guitar player like the GOAT Jimi
Oh I’m a fan of this Fr
Damn man! This is twice Eric has been in my backyard or close by here and NO ONE EVEN LET ME KNOW! Once in Lexington NC and now Raleigh NC!!!
How cool that Cory had Eric! Great show in ATL. Thanks Cory!
Masterful technique
