      @dante4d 8 лет назад +11

      His tone is quite proper, I like it's simplicity. Some people play through stacks and stacks of effect with I find unnecessary. I also thought he's using passive pickups and had to look it up, those are active ones. Most of the time, I find the active ones to sound worse than the passive ones - less dynamics and clarity with active ones due to some sort of compression or what...

      ***** He is bad ass. No question. Not adequate for Priest unless he plays better live and in studio though. I'm a vocalist, drummer of 30 years and he's off in plenty of places. Trust me. Listen to this solo with a click track and you'll better see what I mean. He's a great player for sure, but NOT the best choice for Priest IMO.
      If you think Faulkner is a ten musically, listen to someone like Reb Beach, or Doug Aldrich (DIO's "Killing the Dragon"), or even the new guitarist for Dokken.

    • @kscarano
      @kscarano 9 лет назад +4

      I must disagree with you, as I've seen 4 shows on the current Priest tour, and he tears it up live. Redeemer of Souls is also a masterpiece. Doug Aldrich is another favorite of mine, I"ve seen him with Dio and Whitesnake countless times. He's killer, one of the best! So is Reb Beach. But Richie IS absolutely the best choice for Judas Priest, he fit in with them right from the start and is credited (by them) for keeping the band alive. His energetic, mesmerizing performances have turned doubters into believers. No one is better for them than him. And bottom line is, THEY wanted him!

    WOW, that is some nice playing! Haven't really followed Judas Priest since KK Downing retired, but this guys improvisional skills are incredible! As soon as he said he was a big Michael Schenker fan, he got my interest, and he didn't disappoint. Well done sir!

    Richie's pauses during pull downs are stellar, he doesn't rush the pull down, let's it un-fold un-scripted. Very relaxed guitarist, live within priest rising, playing v" stellar lead break, Floyd brought to fullest capability, also really streachers notes like no tomorrow.

    His tribute to other guitarists is admirable. Richie is another Grand Master guitarist. He sounds very 'new age' too and could easily slot in with Satriani, Vai, Petrucci, Jess Loomis, Zak Wylde, Michael Schenker, Dave Gilmour and the like ! and the like

    • @LJC450SE
      @LJC450SE 10 лет назад +1

      Agreed, he brings a lot of "old skool" licks in his playing, fast and melodic with some seriously tasty licks thrown in-definitely hearing 80's and 90's guitar players influences and very good use of minor pentatonic scales as well.

      James McDonald I'm a session drummer / vocalist of 30 yrs and I've played with some of the best in the business. The kid is great, he's just not a stand out. Sorry. When you sit with Reb and then listen to this kid you can clearly see the scale of 1-10. He's a strong 7, but not much more. And unless you've played with top end players you probably wouldn't understand. And that's OK.
