I remember meeting Steve Morse at a small jazz festival in Rome 15 years ago, he was personally selling his CDs and casually talking with all of us after a mad performance. Humble as a saint, fierce like a God
By universal agreement there are notes in the scale that no guitarist may ever touch or relate to chord progressions in certain ways under pain of excommunication.
@@claesvanoldenphatt9972 Yarrh but what people usually do is listen to the records, learn the style and adapt it into their own style and if they’re really good and worked very hard - sometimes they succeed at evoking it. Most people appear to find that easier to act on than “communing”. Also I have never seen anyone commune themselves into anything without actual practice 😄
@@claesvanoldenphatt9972 I never suggested you said he were. I was highlighting the fact that it seems we can dispense with the concept of holy communion and still have all of Steve and Jimi. But as a colloquial expression of appreciation elevating rock guitar to the sublime I can jive with it sure 😄
Watched this again a year later.. Still same reaction: Damn. Both terrific guitarists, but Steve Morse...that haunting vibrato he (unmistakably his) and his chromatic lines.....and the way he constructs melodic solos....God, what a master. True source of inspiration on so many levels.
The wonderful thing about people like Paul is - one can be a musician who's not a guitarist - and *still* understand his greatness. There's a special place in my heart for guitar music, and Paul's style of cleanliness and bluesy swagger have always appealed to me, though I never really took the time to properly learn the instrument. I also love John Petrucci and Marty Friedman for pretty much the same reasons. They speak to people across instrument borders.
Steve Morse is amazing. And the two of them together, guitar lovers dream. The thing about Paul Gilbert is he is not only one of the greatest players but his approach to sharing his gift and his approach to life make him all around Guitar Hero. Lots of people understandably say, half-jokingly, that they want to put down their guitars after watching him play. But he makes me want to pick mine up and get better, because he reminds you how much FUN it is! It's infectious.
Saw PG just before COVID lockdowns. His more recent stripped down material was pretty awesome, but when he cut into the Hendrix stuff, and especially Little Wing, the whole place erupted. Two masters, incredible - both of them ♥️.
For you, Paul=technical ecstasy and Steve=melodic genius... Really do you think that Steve doesn't belong to the select group of musicians who have a technical-ecstasy qualities?
Even though Steve can't do alternate picking like he used to, due to arthritis, he seemed to have gained something when he was forced to slow down. His note choice, sense of Melody, and timing is so much more refined and, for lack of a better word, sweeter, if that makes sense. Really good stuff.
He told that on his concert in Moscow. He doesn't like his own singing, because guitar does it way better=) So sometimes he make songs with lyrics and stuff, but he almost never sings.
@@marshall989 Beyond the technical qualities, Steve Morse has a guitarist tone that you are dying of envy. Paul Gilbert does not back down and his humility in the face of a legend is incredible. Being fair, Paul Gilbert now plays better because he no longer has to prove he is fast.
Morris when using floor effects pedals only used Duracell batteries and could tell a different tone between Energizers. Never used A/C power for them. Fresh every show! That was 20 some odd years ago keep in mind. 😁✌️
When you can see two legends like that live playing together at a NAMM that would be a memory you would likely never forget. Their song selection also reinforces the greatness of Jimi Hendrix.
To really appreciate the musical genius of Steve you need to listen to his solo compositions done in the studio. Ex: Heightened Awareness, Wooden Music, and Highland Wedding. Deep Purple is fine but to me these songs are the essence of who he is as a musician/writer/composer/producer. Absolute melodic brilliance.
I love Paul a great guitarrist but Steve is a beast. His solo touches your heart. Melody after melody. He didn't play runs or licks,he didn't need to, his right choice notes and his melodies, plus his amazing vibrato was enough.
Seen em both......many times goin back 35+ years. Wish you all had my good fortune to experience the small venue guitarists dream shows that I relive in my memories.......2 of the world's best and their lack of ego humbled me so it made me who I am today.......a damned good player that will teach anyone to play for free.....never charged for a lesson.....never will....pass it on.......
I met Morse years ago when he was playing around the corner from where I lived in NY. Nicest guy - very down to earth, as was his tech. Both of these guys are humble, self-effacing dudes and this is an excellent clip of them playing together. That delay in Morse's rig sounds AWESOME!
I used to teach at Musicland in Lindenhurst (Long Island NY)and Steve did a clinic with Dave Larue...just like you said,a really cool down to earth guy...he posed for pictures and gave me a bunch of guitar picks...still got those pictures!
It's amazing that Steve is still playing, even though his right wrist is bone on bone locked up, and he has a couple of fingers almost paralyzed with arthritis. He had to learn how to play a different way, which caused him to lose his speed, but he still has amazing harmonics. To see Steve in his prime, type in "Steve Morse band, 1990, full concert". Professional quality audio and video, it was recorded in Germany for the Ohne Filter at Baden Baden at a small venue. Up close and personal! Crank it up!
That really saddened me to hear about Steve's physical challenge you expressed. Use to see his solo band many times throughout the '80s. The highlight gig one night had a private section (two tables/four chairs) at club called Wolfgangs in San Francisco with my bass player, back in '85. We got there before the other two people at the table next to us. Who comes walking up to the table? Carlos Santana and a friend (presume his body guard). He smiles at me..sitting right next to my chair. Smiled back and said, "Carlos." He asked my name, replied back. His final comment before Steve's band started..."you're hear to see the master (guitarist?) tonight? Absolutely.
@@musicalSFCat For Carlos to say that is the ultimate compliment. I was lucky enough to see The Dregs several times in the late 70s and early 80s. A buddy (who was lead guitarist in his own band) took me to see the first show and I was blown away, and I was instantly a fan. Everyone in that band was incredible, and it started my love for progressive rock/fusion jazz. Steve met most of the other band members when he was at music school at U-Miami. A couple of his classmates were Jaco Pastorius and Pat Metheny. Imagine the teacher trying to reign these guys in. Rod Morgenstein (drummer for the Dregs, in a video called "game changing moments") tells a story when they were first getting noticed. It was at a small venue on the strip, and in the front row were the members of Weather Report, Billy Cobham and Joni Mitchel. Thanks for sharing!
Eu vejo o Morse tocar e me dá vontade de chorar. Sinto nostalgia, saudade, sei lá.. algo bom! Esse timbre é absurdo, como muitos já retrataram aqui usando vários adjetivos. É incrível.
It doesn't get much better than watching 2 of my favorite guitarists jam together as though they've been in a band for years! And only Paul can pull off such a maneuver as to making safety glasses look cool! 😂😎
Every man’s guitarist (PG) & a soulful guitarist (SM). And, I’m at home watching them on YT?! NAMM 2021 for me!! Can’t miss something like this, again!!
steve morse , when ever he play , reminds of time i listened his solo album or dixie dregs album when i was young. i re-notice he is my favorite guitarist ever. Paul, good job. respect
PG is clearly a more technical shredding guitarist in this and Steve Morse is the man with the emotions and long howling tones! Two completely different style players doing awesome stuff together is always a pleasure to watch and to listen to!!! respect for both of them!
If he's not the guitar, he's at least got that bus driver-wearing a wolf-howling-at-the-moon aesthetic down pat. A bus driver with a strange picking hand angle and a love affair with chromatics.
Good to see he got rid of that wrist support he used last few years, or really a whole decade. He must have healed up. He used it on the Dregs union shows in 2018 at least.
Steve, I remember when you came to Minsk, Belarus with Deep Purple in 2000. When you were left alone on the stage and started to play solo, I remember that wish that the moment would never end. Thank you for your music and for your "Tu many notes"), no one else could make this track👍
4 года назад+5
Paul just prefers to listen to Steve go on soloing forever rather than get a go at it. Love this!
sorry, but dude ain't got NOTHING on Jeff Beck's current pinky (volume etc) technique. Morse is sweet here, but Beck is STILL light years ahead -- ex: Beck's DYNAMICS are unmatched, while Morse is ONE VOLUME etc here. Few dynamics.
Ray Fairfax That jamming video is a great example of Steve at his best. Been following him since the early eighties. There’s a lot great guitarists out there he’s at top of my list
Dumpy Goodness Jeff Beck is certainly a legend and guitar god, but Steve Morse is the complete package. You could quite literally see him play with Deep Purple, then the Dregs, and a solo classic guitar performance all in the same week. Probably at NAMM... In the end it's silly to rate one over the other. These guys are at the top of the pyramid and we are all privileged that they have shared their gifts with us...
John Gerson I’ve had the pleasure of speaking with both several times and they and Albert Lee are among the all time great guitarists and humble and kind people as can be!
Oh man that was one of the most amazing jams ever. Really enjoy the variations that 2 uniquely talented guitarist offered to such an iconic song. Thanks for sharing that video
Deux des plus grand guitariste tout style dans un échange inoubliable de soli,sur ce petit trésor harmonique de Jimi Hendrix, qu'est Little Wing.Merci Les Gars
What a lovely informal jam. Steve plays so ridiculously melodically and soulfully. Those chromatic passing notes line everything up so wonderfully well. His solo tells a story. I love Paul too of course! The man is a god.
Steve Morse make the guitar, sings, cries, feel, prays and taste. He is out of this world. Paul Gilbert is one of the best american rock guitar player from the eighties
Interesting you should say this - it IS a great time to be a guitarist - so much info available, easier than ever to get access to learning materials, tons of great players everywhere to listen to, on and on.
Jolly Voqar and pretty good equipment can be gotten dirt cheap these days. It seemed that when I was young, you either got cheap stuff, that wasn’t that good, or you were playing stuff that was unaffordable for most people.
Yeah, what the hell. In the past he always had his signature nervous sounding fast vibrato which I never cared for. Here it's really well rounded and sounds amazing.
@@ericbrewerguitar1499 just tell us what your thinking Yngwie, don't hold back! Everyones intonation fucks with his absolute pitch. I think other guitar players in general fuck with YJMs classical ear I loved the one interview in 1999 guitar player where he says, I'm just miking the speaker on my Marshall to get my sound." then asked, what he runs between the mic and the board... he answers a LEXICON preamp which is like $4,000 and two other things, so there was about $10,000 worth of gear between the mic and the board ,which is as per usual, for everybody, but nobody tells you that . Yngwie is so great ,cuz he tells you like it is
After years of intense practice and intense learning and more years of practice, you can wake up and be able to play ^^ Most of us don’t practice 12 hours a day since 30 years 😄
I love Paul Gilbert. And I loved Morse when High tension Wires was released, but man, the way Steve Morse manipulated those soaring lines and complez pedal-steel style bends with such fluidity... he’s so much more than the fast picker these days.
A treasure for all guitarist , what a jam with two humbles and hard workers of this instrument ! historical the unexpected in the crossroad of a music exposition, the best hommage for a Jimmy Hendrix' s song.
I love both of these guys! I got to tell you though, Steve crushed his solo with a ton of feeling. I haven't felt that since the last time I listened to Gilmour kill it on Comfortably Numb. Even Paul was feeling it!
steve play anynotes in specific code scale. but paul play jimi's vocal melodies and any notes added for himself. so i think paul's playing is more difficult .
I literally know Steve Morse. Real nice guy. He doesn’t play guitar anymore. He used to be in Deep Purple but quit to take care of his wife. He is a stepdad to one of my best friends.
I love how Steve is still playing that Music Man even though paint's chipped off, and it's got some miles on it. Just goes to show that a guitar doesn't have to be pretty to sound great, it's the person making it sing that makes the difference. Don't take that the wrong way, Paul is a great player too, I'm not taking ANYTHING away from him, I just love how an old guitar can still, as Sultans of Swing lyrics say, "cry or sing".
Notice, Paul's a gentleman. Makes sure his jam buddy is always engaged. Looks over at Steve instead of being self-absorbed.
So true. Paul is probably one of the nicest guys from what I have seen in interviews. I think it is a Paul thing. lol
Could sing pretty good too if he could stop playing. Very talented guy
Paul is one who really likes to jam.
Because Steve was a rock God before he was born
@@ricowhoo1313 They are 13 years apart.

Had the same experience in the 1990’s after a Dreggs show in a Philly Club. Steve is such a humble guy.
I've met Steve Morse too he's a nice guy saw him live six times
Steve Morse makes such beautiful music. He hits notes that nobody else does

Steve is in holy communion with Jimi

This is why RUclips is great. The chance to see a one off jam by two phenomenal artists! Really nice!
agreed. it's at least half the reason i pay for internet. concert tix are expensive and stuff like this almost never happens at a show anyway lol.
Paul always gives the credit to the other guy cause he knows his playing speaks for itself. What a great musician and a cool dude.
Paul has a fantastic technique and he is a great musician, but Steve is on another level. I think Paul knows that too.
That's a classic Jeff Beck move. He ALWAYS gave credit to the members of his band over himself. I have no doubt that served as an influence on Paul.
@@milospopovic4878, no they are different styles only

Carlos Frederico You’re so right!

Two of the nicest guys I've ever met. Two of the best guitarists ever to play the instrument. Thanks guys for the music.
Paul started to sing, and realized that he's better off letting his guitar sing instead.
Neal elliott word.
He told that on his concert in Moscow. He doesn't like his own singing, because guitar does it way better=) So sometimes he make songs with lyrics and stuff, but he almost never sings.
Yeah that was unbelievable I noticed that too and I was like Ok 😄 ♥️
Don't you think he may have forgotten the lyrics? Otherwise he wouldn't have just sung three words!
And paul is the pick.

Agree totally bro! Soulful and soaring feeling in every note!
Unequivocally Yes!! His vibrato is sublime...
@@frankardos4211 I really love his pinch harmonics!
That delay just gives it wings
What amp is he using? PG got owned. 😉
Even as Paul Gilbert, I think he has a deep respect for Mr. Steve Morse
How could he not? Morse has qualities as a guitarist that even the most technical shredders could only wish to have.
@@marshall989 Beyond the technical qualities, Steve Morse has a guitarist tone that you are dying of envy. Paul Gilbert does not back down and his humility in the face of a legend is incredible. Being fair, Paul Gilbert now plays better because he no longer has to prove he is fast.
Steve's tone and phrasing are phenomenal...
Freaking love how organically Paul incorporates those arpeggios into his improvisation. So musical.
I like the way each other respect themselves
Steve is just so inspirational. One of the unsung guitar heroes from the 70s.
Steve's tone is incredible! Nobody sounds like him.
You absolutely right. Nobody!

Tone really smooth

Ahhhh 2 giants, but Morse touched the sky here
excuse him, he likes to do that

Well noticed Pete
Two giants playing, respecting, and being the guitars. Ultimate musicality and professionalism on both Steve and Paul.
Giant hands too 😆
As good as Paul is, Steve just has the timing and emotion that cant be duplicated.

And an air line pilot.... one of the greatest guitarists ever in my opinion.
chris widney - Steve’s playing makes up for the fact that he always looks like he got sideswiped by a Salvation Army truck.

@@iamthenobody3136 Better than Al Dimeola? Paul is great but Al is by far the best. there is no comparison.

That was pretty amazing - two guitarists I would not expect to see together, with very different approaches, and both sounded excellent.
Steve steadiness is crazy good,those notes, even his rhythm, dam he’s great. Paul killed it as well.
I have watch this at least 30 times and loved every Time to watch the two great guys playing two distinctly different styles. It’s a joy every time
Steve Morse: A lesson on proper vibrato! Watch and learn, kiddies!
Yeah, what the hell. In the past he always had his signature nervous sounding fast vibrato which I never cared for. Here it's really well rounded and sounds amazing.
Yeah right, maybe he has been hanging with Shenker and Uli Roth
What is this shred guitar day at pee wee play house , they are killin fucking wow
too old to skateboard Yngwie once said Morse’s vibrato sucked. Lol. Nice try Malmsteen!! Morse has some beautiful vibrato
@@ericbrewerguitar1499 just tell us what your thinking Yngwie, don't hold back! Everyones intonation fucks with his absolute pitch.
I think other guitar players in general fuck with YJMs classical ear
I loved the one interview in 1999 guitar player where he says, I'm just miking the speaker on my Marshall to get my sound." then asked, what he runs between the mic and the board... he answers a LEXICON preamp which is like $4,000 and two other things, so there was about $10,000 worth of gear between the mic and the board ,which is as per usual, for everybody, but nobody tells you that .
Yngwie is so great ,cuz he tells you like it is
The best guitarists of today, with all respect to the others.
Love this, great playing from both Paul and Steve, you can see they both respect and admire each other...lovely...
Two of my all-time Favorites😊
How about waking up and being able to play like either one of these two giants!
After years of intense practice and intense learning and more years of practice, you can wake up and be able to play ^^
Most of us don’t practice 12 hours a day since 30 years 😄
@@RomainFleuryWhatever Thank you, your work is done Capt. Obvious.
Chewwy153qt you’re welcome 🤝
But there is only one giant, it's Steve.
I love Paul Gilbert. And I loved Morse when High tension Wires was released, but man, the way Steve Morse manipulated those soaring lines and complez pedal-steel style bends with such fluidity... he’s so much more than the fast picker these days.
Everything comes out from Steve makes me feel fresh. His tone, vibratos, bends. Just wow!! Pure Gold
A treasure for all guitarist , what a jam with two humbles and hard workers of this instrument ! historical the unexpected in the crossroad of a music exposition,
the best hommage for a Jimmy Hendrix' s song.
I love both of these guys! I got to tell you though, Steve crushed his solo with a ton of feeling. I haven't felt that since the last time I listened to Gilmour kill it on Comfortably Numb. Even Paul was feeling it!
One day I will get into NAMM. I don’t know how but it has to happen.
It just makes me smile. Two great, great, guitarists, and neither trying to steal the spotlight. Beautiful.
Steve Morse is the greatest guitar player I've ever heard.. period.
I like both, but Steve killed this!
You can tell Gilbert probably went home and jammed out little wing after that, hahah. What tone and soul from Morse.
Hardly, both players are awesome in their very particular style. You go home and jam buddy.
steve play anynotes in specific code scale. but paul play jimi's vocal melodies and any notes added for himself.
so i think paul's playing is more difficult .
@@UrquidiGuitars they are both great players. Sure will be 👍
@@PaWeGiWo i agree completely, which made both parts even better. Both beasts in their own right.
I have watch these 30 times I love Morse tone it is just the right amount of delay, it has warmth
Both player beautifully. Mesmerising stuff. Lucky folk who happened to be there to witness that live!!
No one infuses a solo with more energy than Paul. And no one has better phrasing than Steve. Two of my favorite virtuosos.
Steve has a lot of torque
525 torques
Steve's Tone🙌🏻.. breaks my heart to see him struggle with arthritis, but he still gets it done!
The best couldn't be kept from the fans, buyers, &, collectors rite on guys keep rocking the old age that's what all about it 👍🙌😎🎸🇺🇸👏
Loved the "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" theme at the end
Im so glad someone else heard that! I was grinning!
Paul Gilberts phrasing here is bit quirky for that genre, but Steve just nailed it
Good ole Buckethead. Cheeseball he is.
I literally know Steve Morse. Real nice guy. He doesn’t play guitar anymore. He used to be in Deep Purple but quit to take care of his wife. He is a stepdad to one of my best friends.
Great to see those amazing Music Man amps. My one from the 70's is still a power house that can hold it's own with anything.
03:00 Johnny Marr's face expression saying it's impossible.
I love how Steve is still playing that Music Man even though paint's chipped off, and it's got some miles on it. Just goes to show that a guitar doesn't have to be pretty to sound great, it's the person making it sing that makes the difference. Don't take that the wrong way, Paul is a great player too, I'm not taking ANYTHING away from him, I just love how an old guitar can still, as Sultans of Swing lyrics say, "cry or sing".
Steve is simply incredible !!!
BUT, you know PAUL is THE MAN.
He is so good and sooo Freakin’ Humble !
Lovely people generous respectful and great musicians with it seems little or no ego.....what an example!
