    How does he play these songs so perfectly live? Studio is one thing, but live is unbelievable.

    • @fukenbiker
      @fukenbiker 2 года назад +6

      Years ago Susan and I saw several concerts at the Hollywood Bowl. Other highly polished well practiced musicians that play perfect live are the Eagles (rip Glen), Eric Clapton and Stevie Winwood, and at other venues we saw Bob Seger, Van Hagar Halen, and at the Greek Theater was Chickenfoot where I finally got to see "Satch". They all play 'perfect'!
      Edit: Joe Bonamassa is also another one who plays perfect live.

      Exactly. Not sure I’ve ever seen a guitarist play incredibly technical parts this perfectly live as consistently as Satch does. He’s one of a kind. His mastery of the guitar is up there with the greats. He fucking owns that instrument.

  • @SALESPRODUCTIONS

    What I have always been amazed by - is he plays this stuff live and it is nearly exact to the albums - BUT actually played - LIVE.
    Playing stuff with 20 takes in a studio is one thing - but reproducing it LIVE - perfectly - in a stressful situation - while running around and relying on pedals and for everything to go right - your strings to not break - your instrument to work etc . . it is absolutely amazing. His skills are insane.

    Mystical Potato paved the way for The Extremist and Summer Song, but this one has grown to become one of my favorite Satch song over the years, maybe my favorite, amazing track. Joe had such an amazing run from Surfing-Time Machine, couldn't really get into anything after that.

    I remember reading in a Guitar World magazine interview many years ago that Joe doesn't play TMPHGT live because of the complex arpeggio part and that he struggles with the stretching of the fingers. Ive never seen him play it live but this was the 2nd best thing! Such a master! I love Surfing but Flying in a Blue Dream transports me to somewhere I cant explain. I got the cassette when i was 14 and have been mesmerized by it ever since.

    I love the ending at 5:03. Joe sneaks in a new harmonic color. The band is playing a regular E major chord, and Joe plays E phrygian but with a major third (or A harmonic minor if you look at it that way) over it. He uses the ambiguity of the plain E major chord to fill in the blanks with whatever major variation of E he wants. Genius!
