I think,I'm not alone when I say,we need a new Racer X album and tour.
yeah but with Bruce Bouillet....
+265308 bruce is amazing
Definitely would love to have the band put out something new!
Rush parish from steel panther used to play with racer x
You are not alone
Paul is probably the most talented musician who still down to earth. Paul is the fucking man!
MCSO91 and Guthrie Govan
HardRock73 stole the words right out of my mouth
Guthrie govan is not a god. Im kinda sick people keep talking about him. He doesnt give a significant contribution to guitar world. No new technic , no shit!
Holy truth !!!!
Seems like a good person!! DIME IS the greatest as a person and his talent and originality are unmatched!
Paul is the best. Went to his clinic here in Brisbane Australia a few years back, he had handouts given to every person of some of his trademark licks and he signed a Racer X CD of mine. Such a cool guy and an amazing musician.
He should have said why they didn't get to a major label
awesome:)
Bruce Bouillet still shreds too...
Do u still have the epiphone guitar painted on pink color ??
Well the drill is saver to use with short hair don't you think so Paul 🤣
try the 432 hz tuning instead of the 440.... Awesome, great job !!!
A supergroup of people nobody had ever heard of before.
I have seen over 20 racer x shows in their glory days. They were the best!
Yes the Country Club shows killed my ears!
well, literally? I mean, did you get a problem?
Raceyro, you are my hero
To the Yngwie generation this band was crack.
Did you ever see Cacophony as well? How did they compare?
"My upside down playing is a little rusty"
*completely shreds*
Lol
Tapping is shredding now, fantastic
@@jsullivan2112 Tapping = Not a picking technique, only resonance played with no guitar pick -> Shredding = to cut the notes with a very advanced alternate picking tecnique. Are u even a guitarist rofl, i'll never understand that people who discuss without fucking idea lmao
Gilbert's upside down tapping was rusty...
LOL! 🤣🎸🤟
@@Unknown-Guitarist You must be fun at parties.
"That kid can get up!"
You could say that he had 'morning glory'.
I laughed out loud when he said that!
hahaha for real. hit me pretty good when he said that x'D
Right, fell off the toilet. When he said that.
That's what she said! Haha.
I really like those interviews. They consist of interesting information, which you just can't get anywhere else :)
*EXACTLY*
MAN it would be pretty awesome if they put that guitar into production!
Paul did you ever give EVH shit for stealing your drill trick?
wtf man PG-13 was actually honored that EVH did that...even did tribute to him. besides look at form his point of view one of the all time greats when ur already an all time great but before u were famous had one of ur cheat cheatz used by the most famous cat of your genre!
Love the Racer X stuff. Saw them a few times in the late 80's. Mad shit.
Sounds cool
"There he is again...That kid can get up..." Paul, although you mildly joke about that - it's one of the truer statements in life. I just love your videos!
I think I’m not alone in saying there has never been another live guitar duo that did it better and more precisely than Gilbert and Bouillet. To this day still amazes me to hear. I’m glad Racer X happened.
Jason Becker and Marty Friedman came pretty close........
Kept my Marshall 50 watt in my locker is the best sentence about school ever said
Racer X was one of the best bands ever. :-)
I still listen to Street Lethal !
hard to believe that he is in his 50's he looks so young.
Doing what you love keeps you young.
yeah he looks 18
Paul is amazing! He said, the drill is "kinda a parody"..... he just gets it man. Such a cool dude.
PLEASE,PLEASE bring racer X back!!!
I love how passionate Paul is about the guitar, it's absolutely inspiring!
Paul making me fall in love playing guitar since 2007. Again and again
Sounds like the dentist from Hell, OPEN WIDE! LMAO! 😂 the dude is so awesome and humble!
This man epitomizes an amazingly talented and humble human-being. Probably one of the best guitar players in human history and such a genuine and down to earth guy. Rock On Paul...
I talked to the most well-known guitar tech in Taipei, Taiwan once. He told me that he got a chance to meet lots of international guitarists, and he some photos with them on his wall. I saw Vinnie Moore, and few others. He tech'd for Satriani and other big names. I asked him what guitarists, did he feel stands out from all the others? He said, Paul Gilbert! Didn't pause a second! haha He then went on to tell me how Paul could pick up any guitar and play it ferociously and he knew any song people called out.
I love stories like this
He is one of the coolest guitar guys of my glory days
I'm not a guitar player but always liked guitar driven rock or metal and Racer X was incredible when I first hear Street Lethal and then Second Heat back when they came out in the mid 80s. Very melodic. The whole band had great musicianship. One of the best twin guitar attacks was Paul Gilbert and Bruce Bouillet on Second Heat.
Racer X was too ahead of its time. You'd be hard pressed to find a band that could now cover the stuff that racex X was playing in in the 1980s...
Considering Yngwie invented the neoclassical thing I don't think ahead of its time is the way to describe them. They were amazing but there were quite a few shrapnel artists during that time too.
Dhruv Kotecha how is this in any way related to neoclassical?
Having actually seen you guys around that time, I can attest that they were amazing shows. Absolutely incredible. It was so god damn loud, too. Lol.
The dentist from hell, i could listen to Paul for hours!
Jeff Martin's live vocals on Time Before the Sun is amazing!
"Heart of a lion"
I think that Paul is not only a fantastic guitar player but a nice guy as well. Thanks for your knowledge and music over the years.
Outside of being an amazing guitarist he's such a great personality and storyteller. Love these videos.
I can't stop smiling while watching these videos! Thank you Paul for making these.
He is so modest. What an incredible guitarist and just a good guy.
It's all coming back to Paul soon he will be playing like a 20year old kid again
Paul Gilbert é incrível....
"This kid can get up'' this crancked me up hahaah
Such a cool dude. I couldn't get enough Racer X back in the day. Great songs, musicianship and keeping it fun. Bruce was actually a bigger influence for me with his bluesy feel and vibrato.
I truly appreciate that he mentions how important putting on a show is! How to go over the top and not take yourself too seriously.
I have always found the crowds respond better and are less intimidated by a kick ass band that is not afraid of having fun or poking fun at themselves.
I saw you guys at the Omni back in '88 and loved the 4 high 4x12's, the neon colors, the drill, the excess. What wasn't to love about it? Self-parody was evident and you could tell everyone in the band was having a blast. Great memories. Plus, that drill is sort of a 1-string, manual Gizmotron!
I went to G3 Cincinnati, on the first note of Scarified, there's Bruce, then that drum beat.
I Lost IT! I screamed like never before, and came out of my seat (I think Paul even gave me a weird look for a sec) I was completely alone with cheering but I didn't care.
Highlight of every concert I've ever seen.
They did not drop a single note after all those years. Much love Racer X
Saw this band many times at their peak-Amazing!
Such a gorgeous guitar! Thank you for all the shred!
Remember first listening to the opening of Street Lethal back in the day - as a guitarist of similar age to PG, it was terrifying. :D
I saw Mr. Big back in '90-91 & watching Paul & Billy doing ' dueling ' guitar vs. Bass was epic! Epic night & gr8 memories!
Van Halen - Poundcake
Heard it from Paul first.
i whant that pink guitar its beautyfull
ikr probably the only pink guitar that i really dig
Nevil Cora it looks like a weird ice man
Nevil Cora more like iceman and destroyer had a child
It's his "ice-stroyer!"
If I had to guess Paul did for a living, and there was no guitar... Carpenter, for sure.
I was at G.I.T in the same class as Paul Gilbert. I remember at graduation, he and his GIT band played in their bath robes. Funny prank. they played "Schools out for Summer" by Alice Cooper. They did a great Job. I will say, as great as a guitar player as Paul was, the #1 guitar player graduating was a red-headed Southern boy named, "Jimmy". I cannot remember his last name, but Jimmy is still one of the top 3 guitar player/writers that I have aver heard. Paul is great, but he always lacked "soul". You cannot buy that. Wherever you are Jimmy, my the good Lord be with you!
Mr. Paul is a great guitarist whose greatness in guitar is dwarfed by his humility. Indeed a good example of a who a human being should be.
Me luvz Gaul Pilbertz
Cool guitar love to see it with shark fin inlays flip flop every other way. Maybe a different color to.
Paul, i just wanted to say thank you for helping me become the guitarist that i am now! I think that you`re an amazing guitarist and one of my all time favorites as well ! So again Thank you again!
inflatable godzilla would be a good song name 👍
No mention of Bruce?
Regards PG ! You should write a BOOK !
Paul, your playing, teaching style and enjoyment of music has been a constant inspiration to me as a musician. Your new album is also completely kick-ass!
Long may you reign.
I always thought Jeff Martin was the weakest link. Glad I got to see them in LA, man they were on top of their game!!
Go listen to Powermad's - Plastic Town released in 1989. They must have been a fan of the Scarified riff.
Amazing guitar player and as far as I know, incredible human being. 10/10
Street Lethal is easily my favourite Paul Gilbert record. It's insane
Paul is so damn cool. What a fantastic musician.
Paul is the bomb.The Drill is still cool In my humble opinion.
Why did he call Juan "John"? Am I the only one who caught that?
I've seen Juan sometimes credited as "John" which is pretty weird
I just found this channel! I love listening to your stories Paul.
cool as f'ing Cucumbers bro... love that drill, never knew you did that haha, brilliant!

Paul, you mentioned everyone in Racer X, except Bruce Bouillet. Why? I studied with both of you in 1987-88, and while Bruce never achieved the fame that you did, I remember he was an integral part of your life back then.
Is Paul using a Kemper...?:O
Nope spent 3 grand to have it hold his papers down 😉
i would buy one. sell my guitars for that one.😍
Dude that drill sounds like a sick ass pick slide
Gosh, such a great dude. Love ya Paul!!!!!!
Paul would get up at 6am to start shredding in rehearsal at 7 o'clock in the morning. This is why he's the GOAT
this guy rules even with pink guitar
God damn I want that guitar so bad
Randy Rhoads and Paul Gilbert are my two favorite guitarists of all-time.
What I take from these videos...paul talked to mike varney ALOT.
I like how he says its coming back to me now 😂 it's like hes a time traveller from the 80s in the wrong time 😂
"I'm a little rusty...". Shreds
Fun fact: a hot pink guitar with hot pink pickups makes your tone 69 times better
The whole Rock n roll genre is a big satire, that's what a Jazzer told me...!?
Paul you playing Bach on guitar woooooo!
To me Racer X paul is much better than mr.big/post-mr.big paul
Please have Ibanez do a Destroyer/Iceman like this!!!
He should have left it at tear people heads off ....hilarious he corrected himself ...3:50
Don't give it up Paul. Get the boys back together and make that magik again.
We need this guitar for a full production !!
Please bring Racer X back
First rule for aspiring rockstars: wake up early !
I there really someone next to the camera he is talking to?
I didn’t get Into the songs but the musicianship was top notch.
Great teacher at GIT 1990, awesome guy. Terrifying player in person
No mention of Bruce boulliet...
I saw them at Gazzarri's back in 1988 \m/
Looks like a Destroyer with an Iceman lower horn.
