@@trenken you need to listen to valley of eternity forbidden city and thunder march demo version hes melodies a mix of exotic romantic like chopin and metal and that whats makes him so unique although nowadays his sense of melody is kind of fcked due to over jpop
"that's the way i would do it." holy shit marty, you are probably in the top 5 of guitarists to come out of the 80's. and unlike others *cough yngwie cough* you're very modest and humble about your playing. very inspiring.
His melodies have the power to bring me to my knees, which is all that matters now. Not the stuff he's playing here, but in his solo albums. The most beautiful guitar lines I've ever heard. Fast lines don't register anymore with me, it's all about the melody.
I guess I'm forever colored by being aware of him since his Cacophony days... Jason seemed faster, cleaner, with perhaps an (arguably) deeper knowledge of music theory, but Marty stood out with an unorthodox approach and that 'thing' that makes him stand out as a unique player.
lol @ the argument raging, think what you want...this is blues. Blues comes from sound feeling, from within, nothing to do with scales. Hammet plays nothing but minor pentatonics and hes as blue as a red thing. True there are better blues players, but i bet martys blues is farrr batter than their shred. This guy has a totally unique style and approach to the way he plays, the solo in this tune is like a story, theres a question for 3 bars, then answers it in the 4th. Brilliant. Marty > You.
Martyo can play anything and he loves what he's playing. Tht's what makes him an awesome guitar player, and one of my favorites too. Personally I love Blues as well as Thrash...
I think people who crtical this are soooo missing the point, he was giving an illustration on how you can use the dynamics of blues to influence/enhance your own playing no matter which style... Why can't you see it for what it is... a excellent improvisation!
marty sholdn't be playing any type of blues.. .. what i know him to be amazing for is his CRAZZY cool exotic style and his strange picking style. i love everything he does when he goes crazy with exotic scales
Marty has the more fuckin' feeling in his playing than any other rock guitarist (and I love a lot of them.) It's just the way it is. Listen to his solo's on the megadeth albums. They were pure genius. He fuses so many styles together, and it doesn't sound like some douche bag running scales as fast as he can. It's just music.
yea. i agree. some people say that you can't even compare them for that reason. :) but yea...hendrix does deserve more credit because he made his stuff up...when now...we just add onto things and change some stuff around. :)
Actually, YOU look it up!! In the you tube search bar, type marty friedman-righthand technique. He says why he plays that way with his picking hand...for a more free flowing, clean sound from the strings. Its not because he had an injury. It was DAVE MUSTAINE'S doctor that told him he would never play again after nerve damage in his right hand.
Marty has a trademark sound and trademark licks. What I was referring to was the fact that a lot of people outside of the Megadeth realm would have no clue.
the chord progression. Most blue sis minor. But he has that distinctive major/diminshed approach which is very hawaian. My grandad is from indonesian and alot of the indonesian people went too hawai when the Japanese invaded indonesia. There, the indonesians (Who made major music) met the "american bluesmen" and their music fused together; resulting in a major type kind of blues. If u have a good ear u can easily hear the dinstict major/exotic harmonies. Instead of the regular blues.
Marty is JUST FANTASTIC in all styles. Whats Fucked Up about this is to be able to get that BLUES tone from his Custom Jackson. It's not actually a Strat, or Tele. Can you imagine him using Claptons, or better yet a SRV Setup??
my point was that it's more about the player than it is the equipment. So while you might not care for Marty when it comes to blues, (although he is rather talented I must say) he can play on any guitar he wants and will still have a blues feel because it's all about soul and feeling, not equipment.
I am a marty friedman WORSHIPER. Marty learned how to play holding his hand that way and IT IS NOT because of an accident or injury. You didnt hear it from marty himself because, because its not true....so whoever told you that is completely wrong.
@BLUEScrazy Definetly, they are pioneers on a big scale. Whether or not someone likes them is a personal opinion. There are guitarists who openly admit a Hendrix influence and those who hide and deny it. Whether or not you like Hendrix he still had talent for his time. Today, virtuosos are much more common thanks to pioneers of various instruments. Hell, artists like Hendrix music is still better than 60% the stuff that comes out today.
Oh yeah , i got the Sweep Arpeggio Blues , Baby !!! I just can't seem to break a string , i play for 24 hour straight , just can't get no sleep . Never take a brake , i got the Sweep arpeggio Bluuueeessss !!!! wooo ha ...lol
Blues is not a music style, a more appropriate way to think of it, is to think of it as a "feeling" so as long as you put yourself in what you're playin' there is no wrong way to play the blues...
One of the way's to distinguish real player from a fake player is when they play the blues, every idiot can learn scales and run them as fast as they can but only true players can play the blues right- Marty got the blues down right he is definitely real. Respect
0:29 - 0-40 = hawaian/indonesian style (Major) turnaround and he plays 0:47 - 0:52 a traditional blues (minor) turnaround. Turaround is chord sequence right before u start the 12 bar blues again. But since he's being marty he sliced it up:P
@neoclassic09 thats the whole point of hendrix's impact on the rock scene; he was influential enough that a specific way of playing can be associated with hendrix thus people can aim to be like him or aim to be as far from him as possible. And if you think about it, no self respecting musician endeavours to be a copy of hendrix. Marty just doesn't want to be a copy, that doesn't mean he doesn't acknowledge Jimi's contribution
Idiots who slag this off for not being 100% blues need to understand tht this is an orginal style he is playing with not something imitated from other blues players. It has a hint of a jazzy feel to it also, which makes it even more orignal and better than the standard "pentatonic prison" that nearly all blue players play from
dude blues is a genre that's all about soul. not amps or guitars or pedals. SRV could play on an setup and retain his sound and style because he has SOUL. Play with your heart and it won't matter what you're playing on, it will be blues :)
I think no one is the best,maybe every guitarist can compared based on technical aspects but i think its about creativity,style and making sounds that you really wanted, of course technique is essential also, for me Marty is certain "Guitar-God" because he can play what's inside his mind and go with the flow of chord progressions,he can make sounds on the guitar the way he really wanted at any instant moment
@OralAgreement69 His playing doesn't originate from learning scales, he doesn't even know scales very well. He just plays what feels right (his words).
Hey people, you have a narrow view about blues! Marty introduces some scales and stuff that doesn't fit in the traditional patterns, but this is blues based, you've got to see it. I love this shit!! Marty is the best!!
@BLUEScrazy I don't want to get into your debate thing here, but I can put money on it that Marty has listened to Hendrix at least once. One of Jason Becker's favorite guitarists was and still is Hendrix. All those years hanging with Jason Becker he has definetly heard and maybe even played a Hendrix tune. Its kind of like the singers who try their hardest not to be like Robert Plant, but always end up being like Robert Plant on stage and even in their singing.
@BLUEScrazy he is not influenced by hendrix, there's an interview he did where he talks about how he wanted to get as far away from that way of playing a possible.
@BigTymerPimp hmm very true. its kinda hard to deny hendrix's influence when he basically is one of the most important figures in rock guitar, just like plant is to rock vocals.
Marty's playing is so unique that even when he's playing a different genre you can still tell that its him playing
That’s so true
Whats unique about his playing?
@@trenken all bro , just try to learn a solo by marty and you will see why all said that
That's cause he's a self taught guitarist. 🙌
@@trenken you need to listen to valley of eternity forbidden city and thunder march demo version hes melodies a mix of exotic romantic like chopin and metal and that whats makes him so unique although nowadays his sense of melody is kind of fcked due to over jpop
"that's the way i would do it." holy shit marty, you are probably in the top 5 of guitarists to come out of the 80's. and unlike others *cough yngwie cough* you're very modest and humble about your playing. very inspiring.
Mercy!
Modest and humble is very inspiring....also over the top and arrogant like Yngwie is very inspiring...love them both as players and characters
That was some of the most creative blues ever.
Marty Friedman has the perfect sense of feeling and soul, his bendings and vibratos are out of this world, and this is coming from Clapton and SRV fan
Marty sure can play the blues, such an awesome musician!
The guitar doesn't matter too much, I've always said that the perfect combination for any amazing guitarist is the fingers, the heart and the head.
SpicyDragoon brilliant agreed
MARTY himself is a GENRE of music.
How Marty highlights the chord changes is just incredible
he so amazing he can improvise on almost any style
Marty Friedman my favorite guitarist of all time long live Marty and Long live Megadeth!!
This is what a true musician should be. not just sticking to one genre of music this guy is truely talented and musical
"That's the way I'd do it..." LOL!
His melodies have the power to bring me to my knees, which is all that matters now. Not the stuff he's playing here, but in his solo albums. The most beautiful guitar lines I've ever heard. Fast lines don't register anymore with me, it's all about the melody.
everytime i watch this video..it makes me wanna cry...like a bluesy sort of cry....
oh my god thats beautiful.
I can't stop clicking repeat
I guess I'm forever colored by being aware of him since his Cacophony days... Jason seemed faster, cleaner, with perhaps an (arguably) deeper knowledge of music theory, but Marty stood out with an unorthodox approach and that 'thing' that makes him stand out as a unique player.
You forgot to say that they both were outrageously soulful!
I like some of Becker's tunes but I prefer to listen to Marty.
Such a great melodic solo full of surprises that keep you listening. I love the way he plays through the changes on the turnarounds.
2017 and this still blows me away!
well...
oh, how i love his bends from a sour note to a note within the scale!
lol @ the argument raging, think what you want...this is blues. Blues comes from sound feeling, from within, nothing to do with scales. Hammet plays nothing but minor pentatonics and hes as blue as a red thing. True there are better blues players, but i bet martys blues is farrr batter than their shred.

martys tone is just amazing!!!
no existe guitarrista con esta gran calidad interpretativa. sus solos llegan adónde otros no
Totalmente de acuerdo contigo, amigo.
@@j.coronado8220 si gracias a el hoy toco la guitarra gran inspiracion
The fact that the guy in the back said mercy tells you how impactful Marty’s playing is.
HAHA I love it. "That's the way I would do it. (Have we recorded enough yet guys?)".
blues is so awesome, especially when marty plays it
"that's the way i would do it. Mercy!"
that was awesome playing!
Love the way he says "mercy!" at the end!
ha ha this is freakin awesome, marty is awesome in what ever he wants to play. live long marty.
I can play maybe play one or two licks that he played. I feel great. Thanks marty
Wow he can be technical as hell but he can also be emotional! One of the best guitarists ever known!
I admire Friedman. He can go balls out million notes a second, but he has taste and pulls back at times. Not many do that. He got soul.
Wow... who'd have thought that a shredder such as Marty Friedman had such bluesy feel XD. Almost orgasmic.
GREAT BLUES PLAYING BY MARTY
Great guitarist ... I love you Marty ! .
He is the greatest guitarist alive.
I think people who crtical this are soooo missing the point, he was giving an illustration on how you can use the dynamics of blues to influence/enhance your own playing no matter which style...
Why can't you see it for what it is... a excellent improvisation!

@WhatSideOfTheBed DidYouWakeUpOn xD
I love his style, it's so unique.
Your right it has and thats what makes it sound cool

i must listen to this every day!!!
That's the way Marty would do it!!!!
yea. i agree. some people say that you can't even compare them for that reason. :) but yea...hendrix does deserve more credit because he made his stuff up...when now...we just add onto things and change some stuff around. :)
That's the way he plays the blues, or you like it or you don't like it, simple.
@NoLifeTilMyBalls are you kidding me? this is some of the most expressive stuff out there
shredding without a distortion. that's fucking awesome.
the best.....forever
I like how he goes with the Stormy Monday chord progression. The substitutions fit well for his style
This one is a good one, and I really love blues.
Wow.......total guitar MONSTER.Always tasty
lol "thats the way i would do it" and too right marty is GOD !!!
i love it. it has blues all over it
Actually, YOU look it up!! In the you tube search bar, type marty friedman-righthand technique.

Scenes is great! Totally different than.. say, Rust In Peace but still amazing. BTW, he does one of his signature lick at 1:35 ;)
that was a really sweet tune. =)
First time a real guitar player using a Jackson guitar to play the Blues..Love it
Marty has a trademark sound and trademark licks. What I was referring to was the fact that a lot of people outside of the Megadeth realm would have no clue.
Never knew he could play this kind of style. He sounds musically educated. I would love to hear him play that style with a strat too!
SRV was a white boy too, and he's one of the best blues musicans ever, and, for most practical purposes, Jimmy Page was basically a blues guitarist
"I'm designed for metal shred, but I don't mind this"
The Jackson
the chord progression. Most blue sis minor. But he has that distinctive major/diminshed approach which is very hawaian. My grandad is from indonesian and alot of the indonesian people went too hawai when the Japanese invaded indonesia. There, the indonesians (Who made major music) met the "american bluesmen" and their music fused together; resulting in a major type kind of blues.

unless you had a REALLY good ear.
OMFG, i love blues and i love marty

Dammit I loved that shit.

dudes stop fightining on a marty friedman video. this is a sanctuary video and good music.
0:29 - 0-40 = hawaian/indonesian style (Major) turnaround and he plays 0:47 - 0:52 a traditional blues (minor) turnaround.
Turaround is chord sequence right before u start the 12 bar blues again. But since he's being marty he sliced it up:P
I love this man
grandspa's guitars!
if anybody doesnt get the reference its from metalocalypse, not insulting marty, hes basically god
I'm going to look that shit up right away! thanks man.

are you kidding? this is just as good as any other famous blues player, if not better
I dont see why we have to compare one or another guitar player. Every guitarr player is unique,
That was the day great Dimebag Darrell died.
We miss you bro!
MERCY!
fucking love that part never gets old

@denukio you're deaf. that was not shred at all, he has the most emotion in any note of any guitarist.
Marty is so chill... a little too chill , that damn Dave Mustaine !
Oh so that's where I was going wrong. Thanks Marty!
He doesn't like the "muted" sound that you get putting your palm in the bridge.
It said that in an interview, he likes a more "pure and clean" sound.
Fucking love blues. Fucking love metal. This is the perfection combination!

i agree sir. :D
one can play the same rig, effect settings, same lick and same guitar, but the tonality cannot be reproduced fully. XD
I'm a big fan of blues guitar and this guy played 'em just fine.Kind of a Robben Ford/Johnny Winter mix.
