Guthrie's actual songs are much more satisfying instead of him doing a clinic. Anything from his album "Erotic Cakes" is nice. I particularly like "Fives" and "Wonderful Slippery Thing" as highlights. He also played in the band "The Aristocrats". That material is just wild and crazy musicianship on everyone's parts. I couldn't even begin to pick one. Just jump in. The public doesn't know guys like him but us guitar players know. ;) Peace...
Guthrie is considered by many to be one of the best guitar players ever. I truly don’t think there’s anyone above him. Another thing that puts him in a realm of his own is that pretty much everything he plays is IMPROVISED. Dude just writes majestic melodies on the fly and I can guarantee that nobody else can match his improvisation skills
Man I really needed a good feeling tonight. I'm glad you liked it. I just found him randomly and thought you'd like it. I'm doing a bit better today. It's getting easier to breathe.
The record companies dictate what the majority are listening to while great players like this remain mainly underground unless you read guitar magazines. A quick search of his name will show you who he`s played for and his solo work.
To an extent i guess, but let's be honest, the majority of people wouldn't like Guthrie's music either way. He is a player's player. I've been to one of his gigs. He asked how many people there are musicians and you can guess the answer: every single person in the room. Most people don't want to listen to anything complicated. Hell, even i don't particularly like Guthrie's actual songs with the aristocrats for example, aside from a few. It's certainly far from being pleasing to the ears of most.
Damn, my old guitar teacher from 20 years ago. I wish you watched his proper performance of waves and wonderful slippery thing. He is one of the most technically proficient and musically minded guitarists you will ever see. He performs along side Joe Satriani and Steve Vai quite often.
GUTHRIE is on another level. He has mastered all guitar techniques, and can play with feel too, which is amazing! Check out his band The Aristocrats. It is a power trio, and all three members are top-tier musicians.
We do hear guys like him on some of the best tracks out there. Producers, studios and guys you have heard of love guys like him to make their work sound great. Guitar magazine named him guitarist of the year in 1993.
Guthrie Govan is possibly the most incredible player ever! His phrasing skills are unmatched and it's a shame his name isn't on the tip of everyone's tongues the way Hendrix, Clapton, Page, Beck and Van Halen have been!
That wasn't really the song waves, but he might be the best guitar player on the planet. You should react to Fives from him. ruclips.net/video/-yPEewaalik/видео.html (His Erotic Cakes album is a masterpiece)
His using the chords from Waves becuase someone in the crowd asked if he could use waves as an example on how different scales work over the same chords.
Ah, Guthrie Govan, great virtuoso guitar player, he is next level up there with Steve Vai and the like. Hans Zimmer hired him for his live tours and was amazed by him saying "This man is about as good as you can get"...yes Hans Zimmer himself was amazed at his ability. I'm not really into his stuff too much, but you should definitely check out a proper song by him, he's great. Kamelot - Memento Mori
He will absolutely play something you will relate to my friend because he can simply play it all. Classically trained and his skill level is beyond believable.
Please look up a young blues guitarist called Toby Lee. He is 13 now but even when he was 5 he was insane . On his channel on youtube, named after him he recently performed with Buddy Guy on stage.
Guthrie is most likely the best guitarist in the world.. there are only a few that come close to his talent. One the few that shred and still keep "feeling" in his playing.
There are very many great players around at the moment. Guthrie is superb. If you haven't already, please check out Matteo Mancuso, the Italian youngster who's simply jaw dropping, then of course the great Mike Dawes and his version of Van Halens' Jump. This is the new wave. Monster players who only the few know about.
The dissmissive "I regret writing that" at the end, the best Guthrie quote ever. I also love how he kinda planned to stop the blues-y thing, going as far as to utter "but...", but then he just couldn't resist taking that little thing just a bit further. It's like he interrupted himself, somehow.
Yeah, Guthrie Govan is really awesome and creative. If you like listening to him play, you should also try listening to Bumblefoot, really talented and just like Guthrie, he also has a sense of humour.
Guthrie Govan is considered the most technically advanced guitarist alive. Shawn Lane is the most technically advanced to have ever lived and he is one of Guthrie's major influences. Yes, in the guitar world, Guthrie Govan is HUGE.
I dont think I have ever heard Guthrie cite Shawn Lane as even a slight influence let alone a major one. Zappa? Yes. Paul Kossoff. Other 70s style rock guitarists sure. Never Shawn Lane. Got a link to where he said that?
@@sacredgeometry, you do know, Guthrie got major recognition for transcribing a lot of Shawn's work, right? Yes, he has absolutely cited Shawn. I am just a peon on the internet, but I also played the Memphis scene for 10 years and knew Shawn personally, have met Guthrie and people like Paul Gilbert. I know a bit more than the average person when it comes to the high-end guitar world. I am a washed up, middle aged guitarist now, but I was in the middle of it 3 decades ago.
@@johndeeregreen4592 You know he probably did that for work. He transcribed lots of peoples songs ... for various publications. It was how he made money. Why does that mean it was one of his major influences?
@@sacredgeometry being an influence to somebody doesnt mean that person needs to.like you If you were to transcribe all of mozats work you Will be influenced by it no matter what
If you like this, you really should listen to Nick Colionne. He's a smooth jazz guitarist. There's an old demo vid of some hollow-bodied guitar that inspired me as a kid getting into guitar. Also, Buckethead is the greatest ❤️
I would love to see you react to The Allman Brothers "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, Whipping Post, " or pretty much anything off the Live at the Fillmore East album.
Guthrie Govan is only big within guitarist's circles. The song itself is a bit different - more overdrive/gain. Please please please please react to Cry For You by Andy Timmons. Another extremely good guitarist that's pretty much only big within guitarist circles. I think you'd love that song.
I remember when I first watched this I was blown away, I still am but I’m kinda saddened by his cynicism, i’m sure there’s a part of him that loves playing all that simple stuff but it’s overuse has turned him off..
+Modern Renaissance Man This is not the song Waves. That´s just him goofing arround... You should react to the real song. And to all his other songs xDxD
This clip is from a seminar & is awesome but it's not his song called Waves. It's been 4 years since you posted this & if you haven't you should check out the actual song it's one of the most innovative & unique approaches to a guitar composition ever.
Guys the original video's been deleted by the uploader, which brought me here. Thanks, friendo!
Thank god this exists
Yeah, i was wondering why i can't find it anymore :/
You know why or even who was the uploader? Very sad we can appreciate that video complete
I was looking for it for 30 minutes. Thank God this still exists
Where can i find it tho
As a player, this is/was one of the most important videos I've ever digested. Please keep it alive 🙏
Guthrie is one of the best guitar players in the world
Is the*
@@EnigmaMachine7.62 Yeah, I think he's the overall most complete guitarist on the planet
No argument from me!
I would go so far as to say that he is THE best , most complete guitarist in the world!
Theeeeee
Lando Carlissian reacting to Chewbacca playing guitar, what a time to be alive.
😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You win
THIS IS GOLD
😂😂😂💀💀
Check out. The guitar gods Guthrie Govan wonderful slippery thing. You will love it
This is the only living remnant now that this is taken down, bless you! Transferring comments -
“I wish I could play stuff this guys makes fun of!”
He’s mastered a ton of genres and he’s all over RUclips. He’s what the pro guitarists say “holy crap” when they hear him.
When you see a video, where Petrucci is playing rythim guitar for Govan to solo, you know he has to be the G.O.A.T.
Guthrie's actual songs are much more satisfying instead of him doing a clinic. Anything from his album "Erotic Cakes" is nice. I particularly like "Fives" and "Wonderful Slippery Thing" as highlights.
He also played in the band "The Aristocrats". That material is just wild and crazy musicianship on everyone's parts. I couldn't even begin to pick one. Just jump in.
The public doesn't know guys like him but us guitar players know. ;)
Peace...
I disagree, I don't like his actual songs minus slippery. I like his clinics and fukarounds more

When I read this, I didn’t see the word never lol
The smile on your face and how you followed every note was worth it’s weight in gold. Excellent reaction video my friend. Blessings, Chuck🙏🏼🇺🇸🎸
Man I really needed a good feeling tonight. I'm glad you liked it. I just found him randomly and thought you'd like it. I'm doing a bit better today. It's getting easier to breathe.
Guthrie Govan is right now the #1 guitarist of all tme according to the votes of his peers. He is the most technically sound
Listen to an astounding guitar solo by Govan that spans the final 2.5 minutes of Drive Home by Steven Wilson. You won't regret it
ruclips.net/video/JrS3RUvVZ0I/видео.html
Actually, the studio version is tops:

Maaaan I can't find the original video anywhere now. I used to come back to it on the regular
Anyone found, i used to find too
Does this guy know how good he really is? Or I could add this..... What he is so good!!!
Guthrie Govan is possibly the most incredible player ever! His phrasing skills are unmatched and it's a shame his name isn't on the tip of everyone's tongues the way Hendrix, Clapton, Page, Beck and Van Halen have been!
Brother please don't delete this video 👃
Guthrie is way out on his own..nobody comes close.and never mention buckethead and vai in the same breath as mr Guthrie
He is so unbelievably down to earth

That was a great reaction and comment to Govan's playing, mate! Keep up the great work! 👍👏
The Gods of Guitars take Lessons from Guthrie.......ti's a Fact!

Guthrie Govan is possibly the best guitarist on the planet right now.
Most guitarists/ musicians know who he is. Most people don't. It's unfortunate.
He will absolutely play something you will relate to my friend because he can simply play it all. Classically trained and his skill level is beyond believable.
Simple. He’s the greatest guitarist alive.
Top Tier Level Musicians (Pro guitar/composer/transpositioner)
1) Top bands with talented musicians (e.g. megadeth, pantera etc)
2) Live sessionists (e.g. talent show musicians)
3) Solo/Instrumental Celebrities (e.g. Kotzen, Vai, Macalpine)
4) Studio/Production/Recording/Arranger/Composer/Improviser level sessionists (e.g. Marty Friedman, Guthrie Govan)
5) Masterclass/Alien/Genius/MENSA Level (e.g. Mozart, Beethoven, Guthrie)
YOOOO WHERE THE FUCK IS THE ORIGINAL VIDEO
Couldn't find bro
I remember found this video video with tabs, but now is missing 😩
Please look up a young blues guitarist called Toby Lee. He is 13 now but even when he was 5 he was insane . On his channel on youtube, named after him he recently performed with Buddy Guy on stage.
Guthrie is a Monster!!...great player!!.
Great reaction video. Guthrie blows my mind.
WOW VERY GOOD! Thank you for playing MRM
Guthrie is most likely the best guitarist in the world.. there are only a few that come close to his talent. One the few that shred and still keep "feeling" in his playing.
This wasn’t Waves though. It was just him messing around. Check out the actual song “Waves”
Messing around by showing those arrogant blues players how simple it actually is to play with that oh so magical "feel"
@@keithgraham8588 Guthrie loves blues
Listen like whatcha see is whatcha get
I cant find this video ANYWHERE?!
I think it was removed, I was looking for it as well
Should listen to his solo on the song DRIVE HOME - STEVEN WILSON
The original video not appears

That cat can play.
First time on your channel because Guthrie, please react to the aristocrats, it's a band where he plays
and that's him just goofing around............................✌
If you like this check out Wonderful Slippery Thing . Or his work with Steven Wilson. Try The Watchmaker or Drive Home
Thx for the reupload, the original got removed i think :/
Guthrie is a god
He is big man. but he is not good...

He is Jesus... PS : not hating but in terms of skill. He will eat Buckethead and Steve Vai alive

So true 😂

Have you ever listened to blues brothers soundtrack? Sweet home Chicago specifically
The song waves by Guthrie govan that he did for jamtrackcentral is fucking amazing man. Check it out
