Hypothetical scenario: It's the 11th century, both drums and the hurdy gurdy are a known and common thing. You're a peasant living in medieval europe, sitting in a sleepy tavern in some small village, enjoying a pint of ale after a long day's work. The musician starts to play a tune to entertain the guests. It's this one. :P
man. its been years and i still regularily come back to this. And no matter what time I hear Cowboys from Hell I think of this video. You actually rocked my world with this.❤
Can you imagine walking through the woods hearing music and stumble across this guy in a cabin going nutz. I think its the energy we all need these days. Not disappointed!
If someone told me there was a dude playing Pantera covers on a hurdy-gurdy and some kick drums out in a cabin in the woods, this is exactly what I would picture in my head.
I'm pretty sure real medieval bards sounded more like this than usually heard versions of folk songs watered down by church and victorian historians. Suberb!
Absolute mind explosion!!! Control, accuracy, innovation, superb musical dexterity! Very happy I stumbled across this tonight. I will be following and exploring your posts from Kentucky. Insane!! 😂😂😳😃
and then he started the solo............ what the actual fuck. insanity! i'm just imagining if you traveled back in time and played this to a group of vikings.
Googled "What does a Hurdy Gurdy sound like" an hour ago and, as with most of my internet searches, I find myself at 1am watching a dude in his shed playing with his crank.
At 70 years old this is one of the best instrumentals with an awesome instrument and the talent to boot that I have been blessed to witness. I've listened to this at least 100 times with earpods cranked up. Looking forward to the next 100.
The sad thing is we can't hear how long those life long musicians got gud or what they were capable of. I mean, Bach and his family jammed out free jazz/ folk.
@@JustAsummons Seriously, I bought all his albums after seeing this video, they're great but a whole album of metal covers would be absolutely amazing. This guy is the Jimi Hendrix of hurdy gurdy players. I've never seen somebody play one like that.

I'm being 100% honest when I say this, but, this might be one of the most impressive videos on RUclips. I have never seen that instrument before and it looks so hard to play. Coordination is out of control! Unreal! Bravo, man.
@@DJNightchild its an medival Instrument .. there is evidence that it was used in the 11th century and even before in church services. It was a Instrument of the rich than of the poor thats why its almost forgotte today.. but its used in the medival music scene and pangan music
A mate of mine has one I tried it out as I play a few instruments but I couldn’t get my head round some of the techniques, takes some real coordination that I just don’t have
The Hurdy Gurdy was also known as the Ottoman empire's favorite instrument. There's a channel that's a Hurdy Gurdy teacher and he 100's of medieval songs that he's recorded on the Hurdy Gurdy, I think he'll occasionally do Hurdy Gurdy and Violin. I can't remember his name for shit rn tho.
This is honestly waaay more metal than the original. The mad lad is barefoot in a shed absolutely gaping that hurdy Gurdy. I guess some heros don't wear capes
OMG he did the solo.
HE DID THE EFFING SOLO GUYS.
Isn't this whole thing technically a solo?
How the fuck! iam speachless!
@@guycoolSpore2 They mean the guitar solo from the original version
@@sebastianlindon8992 Yeah. I know.
Vika does the freebird solo...on the keyboard. check it out

Imagine this guy shredding this on the Gurdy while you and the fellas rode into war? The enemy would be fucked.
Hell yeah, give him some flames like the war criers in Mad Max too!
@@Dr.ZoidbergPhD Medieval Mad Max would be too cool!
Enemy (hears something in the distance. Getting louder by the second)
"Oh hell naw, they mean business. RETREAT!"
Add some bagpipes to the mix and the enemy would collectively shit their pants before you ever got near them.
Check out a video of a " Aztec death whistle."

Die Hurdy Gurdy ist ein Wahnsinns Instrument und der Typ beherrscht sein können.
Great jop.. 👍

This brings me so much "Hell yeah! 🤘🤘🤘" joy and just might be my new favorite thing!
Please, please, please do more covers like this!
Yes please!!!!!
This is definitely the best version of this song I've ever heard. Guilhem is a musical wizard.
Anthony Anderson Of course! Only a wizard could construct such a marvelous magic chateau!
Better than the original! 😁
Lay off the drugs bud! It's cool, but not near the best
I had no idea what I was walking into. AMAZING!!
Can you imagine walking through the woods hearing music and stumble across this guy in a cabin going nutz. I think its the energy we all need these days. Not disappointed!
I love when artists really feel what they are playing
This is one the most impressive videos I've seen personally
searched for "hurdy gurdy one man band" and found this. It did NOT disappoint! :D Great video!
The world needs more electric hurdy gurdy.
The best use of a hurdy gurdy I've heard yet :-). I want to hear more
Best version of this song ever played
If someone told me there was a dude playing Pantera covers on a hurdy-gurdy and some kick drums out in a cabin in the woods, this is exactly what I would picture in my head.
I'm just amazed by you sir and the hurdy gurdy just wow
Holy skill! 🤯
GOD DAMN, this absolutely SLAPS!

Wow great job. It takes mad skill to use all four of your limbs at the same time to play a song.
OMG DUDE!!!!!! I just fucking love you playing that song the way you do. Just bloody killer
Genius. Well done.
Mindblowing!
This Hurdy Gurdy is burning. 😎
Bloody Marvelous!!
That’s awesome....
This was amazing! Hell yeah!
This is madness.
Cara você é incrivel é uma combinação perfeita de melodia harmonia e ritmo.
Yeah. Pantera composotions.
Excellently played indeed.
Bass-drum-rythme is slightly altered but doesnt effect your awesomeness 😁👍

Ancient instrument sounds good in electric.
comment j'ai pu passer a côté de ça greetings from france o/
Panters is back I would love to see Zack Green pull this instrument out and shread it like this guy.
Holt shit! This is so badass!!
this guy nailed a dimbag solo on a hurdy gurdy... what the actual fuck
BWAH-HAHAHAHAHAHA!
That was great!💣👍👍

Dude that's fucking awesome!
Googled "What does a Hurdy Gurdy sound like" an hour ago and, as with most of my internet searches, I find myself at 1am watching a dude in his shed playing with his crank.

He's good at cranking
His is an electrical Hurdy Gurdy, but yeah.

You may be getting on in years, but metal never dies. Keep rockin homie. 🤘
Never in my life did I think I'd see someone shred on a hurdy gurdy
Well, he clearly has the art. To shred.
I wanna know who put the pickups in the damn thing.
@@flynnt77 looks like he has a little mic set up on it. Probably running through an amp with a bit of distortion.
@@Rascaduanok you deserve a few more thumbs bud. 😅
@Cristiano dos Santos Gomes And believe it or not, this instrument predates the piano! The design, not his specific instrument, as far as I'm aware.
Well, I can knock "hear a kick ass hurdy gurdy solo" off my bucket list now.
I just though the same thing
Ha ha ha! I never realized I should have had it on there in the first place, but now I stand corrected.
That's so funny!!!!
😂😂😂😂😆
This is like that "rub your stomach and pat your head" thing turned up to 1000.

@@AghoraNath You're not a time traveler?
IKR!
I can’t get over how much this sounds like a retro doom track.
ohhh hell yeahhh we need some Bobby Prince next!
Now that you mention it I cant not unheard that
Go play Doom again, all the midi and synth were basically rip offs of.metal songs.from that period, funny, since one of the maps had a pantera track

I’m not sure I gave RUclips the data to support the rec, but perhaps their AI is becoming prescient. Fuckin’ eh. 🤘
Check out the rest of the channel. This dude is an absolute goat
u should hear odem of him
Saaaameeee
This is probably one of the best music pieces I have randomly found on RUclips.
Right on bruh!
agreed . I think he should do more metal covers like this
Someone must made NPC like him in some medieval or adventure game. That would be amazing! (and pretty funny I think) :)
Absolutely!!!

Agreed!
Oh yeah. Dime DEFINITELY would've LOVED this...Ditto for Vinnie Paul... Both gone too soon...
Dude Dime would take this mf on tour 💯can you imagine a hurdy gurdy man in the vulgar videos?! 😂Dime jumping on him yelling, “Steve Vai!!!”
