Great, and Real. Meeting and speaking with him briefly was a joy. BTW, Rod Morgenstein is the same way. He actually listened to me "wannabe great drummer"-- about his Cymbal choices?! "hey Mike, ya gotta' keep on playing man."
С ним Дип Перпл получил особенное звучание. Интересно отчего ушёл? Полагаю, стало тесно. Какая бы ни была свобода, но в группе сущест- вуют определённые рамки. Успехов желаю ему.
Absolutely. Met him a couple times. Couldn’t have been a nicer and more humble, down to earth guy. My favorite time was the first time I went to see him play live (in New Haven, CT) back around 1990. I wasn’t yet 21 and the bar wouldn’t let me and my friend in. We had driven over an hour and waited for a couple hours for tix. We were super bummed. Suddenly, Steve came walking down the street with his gig bag (is he EVER without his axe?) and we screwed up the courage to say “hi.” He asked whether we were going to see the show and we briefly explained what happened. Long story short (too late, haha) he tried to talk to the bar manager and get them to give us seats up near him as his “guests.” It didn’t work but, but what a guy! He singed something for us but I gave it to my friend (very regrettably as he lost it, and I’m a way bigger fan.) Also saw him in Nashville, Chattanooga, Illinois, New York, Berklee College of Music (I became a student there and went on to work in the music biz), and tons of other places. Always a super class act, and certianly one of the greatest guitarists to ever live…or at least of our generation. There’s no one else like him. Ps - Troy Grady’s RUclips clip of his interviews and analysis with Steve are a must watch, and IMO his best of all. Here’s the link - ruclips.net/video/FLiSyhmJaik/видео.htmlsi=u7Y0LUSrXCdRV2u9
What an opinion of idiot. To express one’s soul by playing needs ‘prowess.’ Can you get moved to some performance by a poorly practiced guitarist? Huh.
Absolutely incredible guitarist and also such a kind and humble human being, I met him on a deep purple tour about 10 years ago after a gig and told him I saw them on their last tour aswell and he said 'oh we are much better now' and saying it like he had just done a gig in a small theatre with a high school band and not a stadium with deep purple and twenty thousand people in the audience with not one person not singing every word and cheering until they lose their voice. Truly an inspiration as a musician and such an admirable, genuine and kind person as a whole. A very underrated guitarist for sure, the world needs more people as nice and down to earth as this incredible man
The very best are always very humble, which I find amazing as they likely don’t think they’re the very best. Thank you very much for your detail comment. I’m actually glad that I put this up so other people could enjoy the music of Steve.
As far as I’m concerned, Steve’s music-whether The Dixie Dregs, The Dregs, Steve Morse Band, or solo-is a genre unto itself! He’s combined a unique set of musical influences that no one else has. Can’t express how important he’s been to my musical experience in this life. And…please go watch the original interview of Steve by Rick Beato: it’s wonderful…!! 🤘🏻 🎸 🤘🏻
Absolutely unearthly, incredible, beautiful, and masterful. Without one word, a complete description of the wonder of being a human being in awe of the world!
Yes, people sure ought to know and check more about The Dixie Dregs (aka The Dregs). Steve's 1st band from late 70's had an innovative mix of progrock with traditional american rhythms (rootie jazz-n'-country styles), with splendid results. Definitely a must-listen band.
Steve Morse is a wonderful guitar player. With him, Deep Purple were on their best. But time changes and I love seeing him feeling fine and not giving up even after the tragic loss of his wife
Incredible guitarist and composer… he is one of my most profound influences. I had the chance to see him with the Dregs back in the early 80’s. So glad he’s still playing live!
Steve Morse! A true innovator on guitar and composing such great instrumentals. I saw him a few years back and he and his band were awesome. I sure do miss him in Deep Purple as well. Keep giving us great music! 🎸 🔥
"Amazing" fits Steve well. He does a lot of technical things better than most really good guitarists. His compositions are always lush soundscapes with great turns of phrasing and yet the core elements remain recognizable and likeable. Since 1983, Thank You Steve Morse for always making my listening experience most enjoyable.😊
An amazing player. I've been lucky to see him play with Deep Purple several times. Never over plays, kind of always seems to find the right part for the song.
Going to see Steve in two days on what might be his final tour with the Dregs. Can't wait. Steve gives a master class here in guitar technique and control. In addition to his masterful use of fingerstyle, alternate picking, and artificial harmonics, he switches pickups endlessly (5 different settings) to serve the tones he wants while manipulating two delay pedals and a pedal for synthesizer set on an orchestral patch. Both hands, both feet working to serve the music. Rick can't hide his admiration for the man.
I met him the first time I saw him play in March of 1979. Couldn't believe how nice he was to a group of us (bunch of us around 15). It inspired me enough to pretty much start playing within that week. Probably saw the Dregs back then around 30 times, and seen him plenty of times since. He's the best overall guitarist I've ever seen. I used to chuckle at the Purple fans who always said Blackmore was better. While Blackmore is great (another of my influences), all I would have to say is "Let's see Blackmore play this." Nope.
This also caused me to focus more in my guitar back in 79 while I was in university. And this is me now. ruclips.net/video/hKMJYp_BE-0/видео.htmlfeature=shared
I've seen Steve Morse by himself a few times also with Kansas and in October I saw Travis Larson who reminds me of Steve very sad that his wife has passed away just awful Steve you have to remaster Southern Steel and Stress Fest especially Stress Fest because that is the worst sounding of the two those albums are absolutely unbelievably fantastic especially Southern Steel Thank you Steve for everything God bless you
Again it shows: There is not one right technique. When he plays fast, it comes from the arms, a no-go when you ask the average guitar teacher. But when you listen to Steve it is just right.
@@JDRichard Hi JD, I am a classic rock guy, but I grew up in a household that was big into folk and bluegrass, so that's also an influence!

Thanks Rick! Aaaaah. Mr. Morse. My favorite, Super nice, humble, man and wizard since 77'... And that's in a world full of Great guitar players like Marc Bonilla, Al Dimeola, Beck(RIP) and countless others. From 6 years old prodigies to seasoned masters who understand, tear it up, goose bump tasteful chords, to bodacious, greasy spoon grit. Aren't we lucky?Please, Check out Marc Bonilla.
Somethings changed with his speed picking. I'm almost positive he used to speed pick completely from the wrist. You can see him doing it in his old videos. Now he seems to be generating speed from the elbow with the whole arm now rather than the wrist. I think I saw him wearing a wrist brace on his picking hand a while back. I wonder if he had carpal tunnel issues like I had and had to adjust his technique.
@@JDRichard thanks for verifying. It's been a while since I've seen his older stuff but I'm positive he used to speed pick from the wrist exclusively. In fact, it was always quite a sight to behold. It looked almost unnatural but damn was it effective.
@@isaacj6212 I know, I’m back in the day. I was told that if I really want to do quick picking I use more of my arm less of my wrist. not a fast guitar player by any means, but I can see the problem if you’ve got any arthritis in your wrist would be very painful to play.
Myself as well. I see these guys play so well and I think I’ve been playing since I was eight years old and still don’t know what the circle of fifths is.
When I heard about the wrist surgery I still am crying but he is still the best ever
It is sad. I have a hand issue as well
It's not about 'prowess', it's about playing with your soul. One of my favourite guitarists ever. And what a great guy too.
Great, and Real. Meeting and speaking with him briefly was a joy. BTW, Rod Morgenstein is the same way. He actually listened to me "wannabe great drummer"-- about his Cymbal choices?! "hey Mike, ya gotta' keep on playing man."

I think he is at genius level for playing guitar.
fantastic man and musician...i met him in Rome 1999 and , for me, has been one of best days in my life!
And such a great guitar player
Wow, what a treat! I was a Dregs fan in the '80s, and love his "High Tension Wires" and "Industry Standard" albums.
I’m so glad I put this up. Remember buying some of his albums years ago and thinking man this guy can play.
Always been Steve's fan since my younger days and will forever be he's one among the greatest guitar heroes
I actually didn’t realize how well he played. Back when I was younger, I used to buy his solo DVDs.

I knew Steve way back when he had a band called ‘The Plague’.
He was an actual friend of mine.
He developed into quite the maestro.😊
Very very cool. An amazing musician
@@JDRichard He’s always been a genius and a cool guy to know.
Brilliant at everything he tackles.
Incredibly, incredibly good! Rick Beato is a lucky bastard getting an in person solo performance from one of fusion's greatest.
Been a fan since "Free Fall". Definitely near the top of my top 10 list.
Thank you Steve to bring all thoses goods things with Purple , you are amazing !!!❤
He’s just an amazing musician in person
I love the soul and imagination of Steve Morse, long live Stevie
Incredible musical composition and performance !!!

Amazing, incredible, genius Steve! Real Virtuoso and Guitar Master! Thanks you many times!
Steve’s pure musicality is absolutely astonishing! From the Dregs forward, he’s never stopped amazing me!
Vista Grande. Beautiful song of the wonderful album"southern steel"
I got turned on by the Dregs, and have been a fan ever since.
So much joy in listening & watching Steve play. A master of his craft.

An amazing player. I've been lucky to see him play with Deep Purple several times. Never over plays, kind of always seems to find the right part for the song.
I have never seen him play in person and I would love to. I’m just 65 so I’m not old enough to have seen Deep Purple in concert.

He looks great for a guy in his 70s. Man, hes still got it. I love his playing

I couldn’t agree more you’re absolutely correct.
Thanks alot 🙏

Who is John Petucci? Does he play for the band Deam Thater?
Hitting all those Goosebump chords. Wow
This is why I put this on so there will be even more focus on this person. An amazing musician and a really nice guy.
The big Steve
50 years now.? A long long time gone by since Buckhead. And totally amazing how Steve keeps getting better and better.
He is an amazing guitar player, and I most impressed. By the way he adapted his style based on the problem he had with his wrist.
Rick Beato is so lucky to have a personal concert! I am so jealous.
Super-Talent-Internantional!!

Incredibile...Ancora non capisco come possa essere così preciso muovendo il braccio in quel modo
I like the way he almost always has his pinky on the volume knob while soloing.
The title of this song is "Vista Grande".
@@sam84tkob Thank you very much

Emotion & Commotion the Jeff Beck sound. Definitely Serene.

Bravo ))))))) 😊😊😊😊😊
Such a legend.
Again it shows: There is not one right technique. When he plays fast, it comes from the arms, a no-go when you ask the average guitar teacher. But when you listen to Steve it is just right.
Just a different technique to adapt to his medical issue. You do have to use your arm if you want to really do fast alternate picking.
Master of dynamics. Like Jeff Beck. David Gilmour and Mark Knopfler.
Wow he's still playing that same guitar from the old Hot Licks or whatever videos they were back in the 90's on VHS
This is his Musicman signature model. You will notice that on this one, he has a different midi pickup mounted.
Looks like a Roland one.
He does. #1 serial number. He played this guitar for his whole life almost

Hey thanks
dude is so far beyond
He plays better than anyone
Did he do Top Gun II soundtrack?
That’s one for Mr. google
I was being sarcastic lol
It simply makes me want to be a better guitarist.

I now know how he played that strange tone.
