Dave Grissom is a master. Good lord - fantastic, expressive stuff he's mining and reaching for and just absolutely nailing. His phrasing is like a horn player. Outstanding. It may sound corny, but it's like all of them are truly having a conversation and complimenting each other so well and filling in the blanks.
Damn, David Grissom's phrasing and ideas are out of this world. His playing is extremely mature, to mature for some in this comment section i'm afraid.
Lmao you called that right ** To **
Uh yeah ok. This is to(0) much.
I love David Grissom. I love Brent Mason. This is heaven for me to watch.
Great playing by both guys. Come on, Brent Mason is known for his country playing and he played a long jam without any country licks really. He's a great jazz player too it seems. Dave Grissom has some lovely licks and just shows what a great player he is here. It's a jam, it's indulgent. If you don't like jams go elsewhere.
Grissoms tone is huge. What a great story teller. 2 masters pluckin some meters. Doesn't get too much better.
I can't believe the guy walked in front of the camera! This is an awesome video!
did anybody listen to the amazing rhythm David is playing while Brent is soloing especially at the end of his first time at bat. The subtle minor cords are Robben Ford-esque in their beauty. They are both gifted players in their own right and have two different styles. It's similar to the pairing of larry Carlton and Steve Lukather. different styles but my favorite album right now. "No Substitutions Live" Check it out and you'll see what I am talking about.
Chords are Robben Ford via Miles...yes, great and very cool.
Two exceptionally great players. Different from each other but without a doubt both amazing in their own ways.
One of my all time favorite songs...love it when this comes up at a jam session. And this is exactly what jamming on a good groove is all about...whether Brent had ever heard it or not is totally irrelevant...the first time I played it, I had never heard it before... It is all about diving in SOUL first and smearing what ya got all over that funky ass groove...every musician has their own taste...the spice of variety...and for me, it's just awesome watching Mr. Mason lay into something that is out of his everyday norm...I love it!!!!
Cissy Strut by The Meters
Great playing from all concerned and I sure dig that bass/drum groove they set up near the end of DG's first solo.
I’m a huge fan of Brent Mason I have been for a long time. Recently converted to PRS guitars and got a DGT. I’m not a huge fan of David Grissom as well so this is a bonus video for me to be able to watch. As others have said, in their comments, the tonality of their respective guitars is awesome. I’m still trying to find my tone.
Love both these guys
A nice pairing , each showing much restraint and it makes this tune mesh well in my book. kudos to the artists...
love how the they start getting on the same page w each other about 12 minutes in, starts getting musical!
Brent's tone is FANTASTIC !
I miss Storyville as well. VERY HAPPY that Grissom has his own band after playing with so many bands over the years. But give us just one Storyville show? Just one....😉
They’ve done quite a few shows together since they disbanded, you can find them on TH-cam
This is fantastic !!!!
Yes, it is! I feel so fortunate to have been able to capture.
Wow. Never seen Grissom play so jazzy 🎼
A lifetime of study right here.
thanks for exploring its one of the last frontiers left for us
Jerry Seinfeld and George Costanza to the mat!
ROADAPPLE756 Hahaha
omg u are correct!
Gotta send it to the deep fakes guys, it would be awesome.
😆
🤔shrinkage
i need to practice now!!!!!
both awesome but Grissoms PRS is stunning!!!
Hah..! All musicians got their “tell” when hittin a lemon… Mason raised his eyebrows big time around 4:00.. but he went with it.. that’s a pro..!👍🏼
both fantastic players
Used to hear this on the jute box (different version) while stationed overseas...Wow...
School was in session with the head of the class Mr. Grissom handing out homework assignments ... Ouch !!!
Brent is the best. He was holding back.
Both incredible players. I prefer B Masons style and feel. More dynamic inflections to my ear but maybe that's because I have been on a quest to soften my own attack and feel. Really enjoyed this
top shelf right here!
Brent, I freakin' love you, man!
They are both great, but I miss Storyville
A last thought. They both seemed to be "holding back". the jam never really clicked into place in ways that allowed either of them to shoot for the stratosphere. It was all very polite.
So much crap in the comments section on this video! Well thought out comments like David Grissom sucks or Brent Mason sounds like all the guitar players I play with! What?! Just... what?!
ive learned something over the years if I EVER WANNA GOOD LAUGH AND ROLL AROUND ON THE FLOOR I JUST READ YOU TUBE COMMENTS!! lolll the mental retardation is just incredible....delusional as well
happy new year!!
Yeah, some people are ridiculously stupid, have no filter or common sense, & they're here, making noise! Hey there, we are TRYING to enjoy the music, mmmmmmkay?
I love Brent Mason but Grissom killed it here...tone wise and choice of licks. It didn't even look like Brent ever heard The Meters before this! ;)
It takes a monster to step in with Brent and trade licks. Dave was stretching out
It's the riff to Cissy Strut, by The Meters
Ah, "Cissy Strut" from The Meters. Love this tune. A tad long though.
Grissom is very aware, artistic, and accommodating.
+CarnyChic articulate and avante-garde as well.
I love it when I hear some cool cats jammin some Meters!
It seems like at 3:49 Grissom jumps into a descending a quartal harmony move opening up to more sophisticated soloing (chromaticism, half-whole diminished)possibilities going outside...something Miles Davis would do.
Listen to the music!
Thank you. It is, isn't it?
Old Meters song Awesome
Cissy Strut. Jaco and his band had an awesome version of this tune with outstanding guitar.
What amp is Brent mason playing through?
Both are playing through PRS amps. That was Paul Reed Smith himself that was in front of the camera early in the video.
14:43 ........WOW!
Paul Smith must love this video.
He is sitting on stage, you can see him :D
There's so much more the band could've done to make things more interesting for either player. When you take the music places and the band doesn't go with you it's hard. They sure didn't follow Grissom. I think both guys are great players. This doesn't show either at their best, but the world is big enough to have them both be great. Brent Mason was the best session guitar player in Nashville when the competition was fierce. Grissom is one of the best blues rock players on the planet with lots of country string bending and some jazz flavor blended in. Not either one's shining hour, but both great players.
The bass player and the drummer are all over the place (to the point that even they don't know where they are). Watch Grissom turn towards the bass player at 12:51. It's like he's smiling, saying alright maybe if we let you go for a minute, y'all can find out where the fuck you wanna be?!
Are the drums PRS too?
No, the drums are not PRS.
calmistheway , I think they're Toys R us .
Great tone though, ya gotta admit.
I meant need not Ned
3 PRS on stage, what's that, a dentists graduation?
haaaaaaaaa.....
Or a PRS demo... I would think Paul Reed Smith, himself, being in the video several times adjusting the PRS amps would be a clue.
Brent can Play Grissom, but Gris can't play brents..both outstanding..
Brent is in the rythm
brent mason
brill!
Jerry looks scared. I bet it's all a great act.
Really was OK until they started swapping licks. Ick.........somebody should have put a timer on that. Ding ! Done.......later boys
ah, a PRS party. Nice.
Sounds like another PRS friend-Bugs H.
fascinating discussion.
I'm surprised at peoples reactions in saying that Mason was the better player. Not even close in my book.
Honestly I felt bad for Brent Mason watching this. Grissom is such an original guitar player, you hear two notes and you know its him. In this performance he came up with an elaborate improvisational theme, which he effortlessly developed and delivered with soul and inventive intensity. Cohesive beyond imagining right down to the period dive bomb at the end.
Whereas Mason, to me, sounded like a million other players caught in their single note wanderings. His playing seemed advanced intermediate and his phrases felt overly familiar. With Grissom"s huge creative force towering beside him - even in his rhythm playing.
I have been playing for 43 years, and I'm still trying to develop a voice half as unique and expressive as Grissom's. Mason is good, yes, but he's not much different than most people I have played with.
his playing is probably familiar because he's the session guy everyone goes to. Grissom is much more adept at a blues styling whereas Mason is more accustomed to the Tele chicken pickin' country licks and straight up lead. His usual jams live in the 30 second and done realm.
Mason is the better player. Just not in this particular instance.
Dan D, Grissom plays in front of 14 people...you Ned to STFU! haha. I still love regardless
Mr. Grissom -- Please stand up straight ! All that slouching ain't good for you !
Oh to be the other rhythm player bobbing his head in 8th notes the whole time
The bass player and the drummer are all over the place (to the point that even they don't know where they are). Watch Grissom turn towards the bass player at 12:51. It's like he's smiling, thinking alright, maybe if we let you go for a minute, y'all can find out where the fuck you wanna be?! I ain't gonna say ol' Gary and Greg ruined what could have been an amazing jam with 2 of the best guitarists I know of, but...they sure as hell weren't helping!!
and yeah id say the difference is brent didn't know the song, and David did, that kinda shit happens peeps lol.
dude. wtf everyone including 10 year olds know this tune.
i love Brent but he did not have a good night.
wow - dudes sound *zactly* like i do, when I get home from the pub and grab the gittar for a quck impropmtu wang-doodle while the stuff is heating up in the frying pan !! how come??
I know it’s old but any idea what amp Mason is playing through?
Who's the drummer? He's got the Zigaboo Nola thing on point.
I didn't know Brent played a PRS
Everyone plays a PRS in the PRS demo room.
Brent primarily plays a Tele, but he was a PRS signature artist for a bit back around 2013.
What's with the total PRS domination of that stage? At first I thought I had wandered onto a Blues Doctor club (eye roll!) - but then their chops were too good! And I know Brent - very nearly got the hot wired 2 wampler pedal a little ways back. And he usually plays a tele! Yeah, a sliver/grey one with a mini HB in the neck.... What *is* with all the prs???!! It feels like an Ad, of sorts! (BTW, I have nothing against prs. I just got an se 4 days ago. And it is sublime, so...)
Hahaha.. it’s a PRS show..!!
An artist and a mechanic……from left to right in the event that you're confused.
So right you are……
Stage left?
tonytamarra Yup.
Dave knew he was up against it with Brent. Both fantastic.
Reminds me of Seinfeld and George...lol...just kidding....Great pickin'
Hmmm.
With all the PRS gear on that stage it looks like they filmed this in the basement of a prominent youtuber or something. LOL! Both monster players though.
Jeez, Brent Mason just makes David Grissom look like a chump in this video. And David Grissom is GREAT.
Brent Mason and David Grissom are awesome, but you can't really compare them to ME.
Thats too f'n funny ...
im better then you soooo
Bren Mason cant keep quiet for 2 seconds
Earache
I love David Grissom but his solo here is, well... not very interesting and certainly not up to par for his level of playing ability. Firstly the tune is not of a style he is as comfortable with as his usual rock blues, alt country blend, and I think he was justifiably intimidated by Brent Mason who is a Fire breathing Dragon of a maestro, and who can blaze in any style. So it's a mismatch, the tune is freakin boring harmonically, and he probably made it worse by letting Brent go first! Actually it would've been bad for him either way, prolly.
David does not belong on stage with Brent , we played this kind of stuff when we were first learning to play guitar , he is still very elementary .
Dream on buddy.
I totally agree. David was outmatched. only zazv has no idea wtf he is talking about. Did dave do well, yeah he did fine. If he wasn't on stage with BM it would have been a great performance. But to have to follow BM it was just ok..
I agree with you as well , David is way over rated.
Yeah, that must be why Brent kept checking out David's licks.
Now you are a mind reader? I guess i will also read his mind. Brent is actually looking over and thinking, "Why did you just play that stupid lick"
some Cissy Strut
David was right, and probably not nice to say, but...I was thinking the same thing as i was reading the comments... Gris got a little guitar lesson here lol..
Oh, please, NO, not the scat-singing thing!!!
Is this a "shreds"?
Some players are not compatible with one another. Put Mason with a chicken picker like Johnny Hiland. Put Grissom with Billy Gibbons who are actually quite similar in styles. Grissom with Hiland works but there is too much of a difference in styles between Grissom or Gibbons and Mason.
I think they should have played a different song, it seemed like a bit of a struggle for them to keep it on the rails.
Two cats I admire a lot but for some reasons my ears "don't hear so good " I know Im blind but hell ....give me something here guys I I just aint feeling it , lazy tempo for an old Meters Classic maybe as mentioned on earlier comments , it has something to do with Paul Reed getting up and tweaking on their amps while they are playing ,I don't know ......I never made it that far in the video to see that I just got bored , expecting a knock out and only got knocked up ......bUT DAMN IT THEY'RE STILL GOOD .......JUST NOT GREAT IN THIS ONE ... sorry for bitc***g ,on CHRISTmas Eve , I'll be on my best behavior tomorrow though
What a fucking mess. Horrible.
I dare say they fell in and out of the groove more times than l ever thought two pros would dare in the length of this and l found partial consideration to the bass and drum corp. Fore their groove was worse than the others. So don't take my word as law you can count it off at any point you wish and hear it fall off go ahead and or get behind, I m aware that brent has done better I do not hear much of Mr Grissom and do know of his Master class for PRS, I feel they were just kicking chops and not studio quality just shucking
Both are immense players but a shame they had to deal with those amps which sound awful
Grissom is so much more articulate on this jam, he's more interesting.
nope
the tone is terrible and in my opinion put brent off
It's curious how someone's mind changes. Last year I felt that Grissom nailed it and now I feel that he is completely off the vibe of the song doing his own stuff and not playing as a band member. Completely unmusical while Brent Mason though is a country musician he tried to sticked to the real nature of the song. Like Grissom was playing dirt for making too many of his tricks that left no space to others get into the song.
Why is everything so cold and corporate
His over glorified talent (less) is expressed in the faces of the other true musicians.
Grissom should stay within his element, it otherwise shows how much he truly sucks. He should quit trying to fool the audience but most importantly. ........himself.
Funny how he tries to over power real talent with his volume knob.
Learn respect dg. You'll never have mine.
Paul Irons I tend to ignore idiotic responses as it's usually pointless to talk to an imbecile but really...STFU.
Paul Irons "over power real talent with his volume knob"
Really? I've found his playing to be the opposite. Do your parents let you out in public?
BTW, the lead is supposed to be out in front of the rhythm. Get a clue.
