Dude this movie is awesome. Ralph (the karate kid, Cobra Kai), is just acting. But that movie and this scene must have made thousands of kids (me included) want to play. Especially on that blonde Telecaster Ralph is using. Legendary. Def check out the movie man. I think you'll dig it hard.
It was well documented Steve practiced for days trying to play the end part wrong until the director was happy it was convincing enough that he couldn't play it. But we all know Steve could play this with his eyes closed 😉
The story line here is, Steve is the Satan's man. Ralph is competing against him to buy back the soul of his friend, who sold his soul to the Devil for musical ability. If Ralph wins, his friend gets his soul saved, if he loses, Satan gets both their souls. And although Ralph's character is a blues guy and that's where his passion lies, he studied classical guitar in music school, and that is what he pulls out to play to save the day. Or something like that. The classical bit at the end that wins the battle is by Paganini, written in the 1800s
In the storyline, the man in the black suit was the devil, who held the contracts of Robert Johnson and the fella in the glasses behind Ralph, and sadly died right around when the movie was released (man playing the devil). Great actor who added so much to this movie. Great storyline based on the famous Crossroads of Blues.
There's a lot of people who forget that Eugene was a prodigy. And he went to Juilliard. The classical piece he is playing here is the same one he did in class at the beginning of the movie.
Since you like guitarist that can talk through their guitar. I would like to point out @5:55 you can see Steve saying thank you very much twice with his guitar.
Paganini's 5th Caprice There was a myth surrounding him having"sold his soul to the devil" in exchange for talent with the violin despite the fact though dude had been a prodigy since he started playing at age 5... And since the movie was about the same vibe, it was clever to use his music
Steve is not the big deal here.... everyone knows he's one of the greatest guitar players alive ! I think this is from the movie Crossroads.... after I saw Steve go down and give up 😉 This is about Ralph & the fact that he is ganging in there is amazing.... yes we all know he would get smoked in a real battle ( & I'm sure Steve is pulling some punches ) .... but I'm very impressed with Ralph & his skillz 😉🎸
Robert Johnson sold his soul to the devil..And then sadly passed ..blind dog Fulton had done the same and went back to reclaim his soul..hence what you see I this scene…nice reaction Awesome awesome movie!! Crossroads
Steve Vai is one of the best guitarists and I don’t think anybody can really deny it. The difference is SRV and EVH etc made good music for everyone and Vai makes good music for guitarists lol .. it doesn’t have mass appeal.
@@ThatSingerReactions Well Ry is more of a singer songwriter who usually shows less pyrotechnics, but uses his guitar chops in service of a song. This concert is a good place to start, ruclips.net/video/tbtoXRFOwEc/видео.html
@@ThatSingerReactions Ry Cooder is a master slide guitar player. A whole different thing than what Steve V does. Ralph Macchio does a pretty good job of faking the guitar playing here
I know you're primarily about vocalists but if you want to see somebody who can really play react to Tina S. playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata on guitar. You will be blown away.

Sadly, Steve Vai is not talked about enough among the masses but among all the rock fans he is definitely recognized as one of the legends 🔥🔥🔥

Thank God you explained that so well. You saved me the trouble AND dropped some knowledge.

Steve needs an Oscar for that one. His ability to pretend like he lost a guitar battle is incredible!
Crossroads crushes. Can't believe most people just bizarrely never watched it.
Arlen Roth played Ralph's guitar parts in the cutting heads scene. Ry cooder did a version as well but it wasn't used in the movie.
"I think he's got some tricks up his sleeve"
Ralph: *plays Eugene's Trick Bag*
hey man great reaction love your stuff and im glad you seen this and found this movie one of my favs, hope you watched it and hope you loved it.
This is so amazing and super props to Ralph, learned this for the movie i believe... Brilliant, Movie and Battle...Peace
Great react. Crossroads is a pretty obscure 80s flick. Thanks dude
Yes you do have to see this movie 😊
This is the movie that got me into steve vai and Delta blues, also the song Raphael's character pull from his hat is Paganini's 5th caprice.
One of my favorite movies of all time
Since you like guitarist that can talk through their guitar. I would like to point out @5:55 you can see Steve saying thank you very much twice with his guitar.
Love this movie, Crossroads movie, 1984 or smth. The kid is playing for his friend's soul against the devil's guitarist.
He played both parts in the movie cross roads
Headcuttin baby
Paganini's 5th Caprice

The comeback is a classical b*-slappin
You gotta watch this movie! Great story.

Watch the movie it's called crossroads with Ralph machio about singing and playing the Blues and selling souls
Did you ever watch the entire movie 'Crossroads' after seeing this guitar duel? I've not seen that movie for over 30 years.
Robert Johnson sold his soul to the devil..And then sadly passed ..blind dog Fulton had done the same and went back to reclaim his soul..hence what you see I this scene…nice reaction
Awesome awesome movie!!
Crossroads
👍 reaction👍

Steve did both performances on the close ups
Oh he looked like that alright...in the 80s ;)
Steve Vai is a monster. But Ry Cooder (who actually played the Ralph Macchio guitar parts) is equally a beast!! Oh, and the movie is Crossroads.
Wait seriously? Imma have to check him out too then

That was a good movie.
Movie crossroads. Ralph macchio aka the karate kid.
Stop it!!! The karate kid I didn’t even realize
steve played both guitars for this scene
Watch the movie!
They are playing for their souls and the devil is sitting in the front row with the hat on.
New hear love Steve via
Enjoy your reactions. Jazmine Sullivan has a new concert video called "Our Story to Tell." 28:19 of musical heaven. Please react to it 🙏🏾.
I know you're primarily about vocalists but if you want to see somebody who can really play react to Tina S. playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata on guitar. You will be blown away.
Plz react to halle baileys new song she wrote and performed in her hotel room in london. Its posted on her Instagram page but its also on youtube
He going to win him know that Steve played both parts but Willie is going to get his soul back but that is Steve via playing Ralph's part to
Chachi on Happy Days
Ralph is a actor the original karate kid
Crossroads from 1986
Steve both parts he's going to safe willies soul
Lol that's what he looked like in the 80's. And the last notes Ralph plays are handed down by God himself...hence the church organ sound.
Willie is going to join him 1 one and only Willie Brown
Why folks can't just be in the moment. No! you have to keep pausing these things! Ay ay ay!
There are a pair of guys on YT playing this scene exactly the same, Steve's mistakes and all.
Listen to joe satriani. Steve's teacher.
Hell save Willie soul
He gonna save willies soul well Ralph will play that part have you watched cross road
They call me Willie the 1 and only Willie Brown watch the movie he goes against the devil
Mojo...
