I think the Grammy's need a new category: "Best Use of Musical Instruments".
I agree
And "Most musicianship gathered on a single stage".
Я бы во всех категориях Гремми им отдал!
I'm a guitarist myself, but Mike Portnoy is just so much fun to watch. His playful and creative style is awesome. And Tony Levin with that Chapman Stick is just the coolest looking guy I have ever seen on stage,
Portnoy also has this ability to make this kind of complex progressive hard rock music GROOVE in some weird sense.
Even if this guy doesn't say much, i can tell that he's enjoying this music.
His face tells us everything
I think Magna Carta Records approached both Mike Portnoy and Terry Bozzio, both drummers of some renown, to form musical supergroups in 1997. Portnoy formed Liquid Tension Experiment, and Bozzio formed Black Light Syndrome; both of which have Tony Levin in the lineup.
John's wife was pregnant and went into labor while they were recording the studio version, thus the title and baby sound effect at the beginning.
Old comment but the others also recorded the bulk of the song while John was at the hospital, and then he joined afterwards to record the guitar tracks.
This song has it all in terms of guitar, shredding, super bends, heavy complicated riffs, fast unison passages, everything!
Just recorded this in videos on my channel, and now I'm playing it as a daily routine to practice all of those techniques, sort of as a warm-up exercise, love it!
1 of few 10/10 songs ever made.
Unbelievable...I'm a big fan of DT but I'm still speechless...
"Hey, someone play a piece of music" "Oh, has it been an hour already? let's put that on a CD and sell it"
I've only discovered dream theater this weekend by another reaction video 25th October 2020 I'm loving what I've heard so far
And of course liquid tension experiment
Brace yourself, you're in for a ride. Discovered them 14 years ago and I'm still head over heels in love with them
This is one of the more expanded LTE tracks. I lean towards "Paradigm Shift" and "Acid Rain" as the cooler tracks. I have not heard any specific reasoning as to the formation of LTE but sometimes it's just fun to play without a singer when the players are a s skilled as they are. I know it's certainly amazing to listen to.
Portnoy was looking for specific musicians for a new side project outside DT, they included Ruddess, Levin, and a guitarist I can't recall now. The guitarist had a tour with other guys at the time so he ended up just calling Petrucci to join. It was during the time recording LTE that he and Petrucci realized how much composition chemistry they had with Ruddess, so they fired Derek Sherinian and Ruddess became DT's new keyboardist and still is to this day.
PS: Paradigm Shift, Kindred Spirits, Freedom of Speech, Universal Mind, Acid Rain, Biaxident, Another Dimension and When The Water Breaks are all great and I can't decide which ones I prefer over one another. Great stuff.
Another fun fact regarding this song in particular is that its name and the baby sounds in the beggining are because Petrucci received a call saying his wife's water had just broke when they were in studio recording, hence the name of the song.
I think the original guitarist Portnoy wanted was Dimebag, actually! That would've been interesting for sure, but im glad it didnt work out as Petrucci is the perfect fit for this music imo
@@DiegoDeschain Seems like you're an hardcore fan, I was just reading your comments and everything is 100% true, nice hermano !
Try listening to TransAtlantic, another side band of Mike Portnoy’s, with Neal Morse. Great music👍
The Whirlwind in its entirety.
You dived into the deep end with a perfect Rip Entry. And you were able to tread the liquid for the full 18 minutes. I hope you didn't get Swimmer's Ear !
Love this song (And John Petrucci's guitar of course)
This song is great to play in guitar! Just recorded this and couldn't be happier :)
Pleace check out 'Acid rain' live in L.A by Liquid Tension Experiment
Amazing musical memories to play a whole set of this.....and not get confused with DT stuff!
Both LTE records are amazing!
Portnoy just likes playing with other people. And when they first got together Rudess wasn't in DT yet and as you said Petrucci was there because Portnoy couldn't find a guitarist.
Um LT is dream theater with exception of levin instead of myung so ...
@Johnny Dong I'm on the verge of tears every damn time someone mentions it. It would have been divine, with Dimebag. I love both Petrucci and Dimebag, but wanted a couple more masterpieces from Dime before we lost him
Watching 11:58-12:12 nonchalantly as though just anyone in the world could play that passage!😂🙌
Jordan Rudess was accepted for study at Julliard at age 9.
The Pre-College divisionc is for elementary school and up, tho
You might like "Kindred Spirits" from the same show.
I was fortunate enough to see these guys during their first tour. LTE is amazing and there are a few others like them such as Bozzio Levin Stevens, Levin Minnemann Rudess, Levin Torn White. LTE came from the label Magna Carta which wound up Inside Out Music. Too much talent for vocals. Another great choice.
Best LTE song. Masterpiece!
Ooooh Jim yes with the LTE!!! One of my favourite prog bands. Paradigm Shift please!! (album version!!)
My favourite LTE song!
Extraterrestrials I love this song, it's almost perfect. Maybe it has only one defect ...... it's too short! ;-)
For a next song by them, and considering how much you like jazzy and other crazy stuff that comes out of nowhere in your prog, I'd recommend "Another Dimension" or "Biaxident".
My favorite LTE track is Universal Mind (Live in NYC version) ruclips.net/video/gPya80o-xyA/видео.htmlh,
with Acid rain as a close second, and paradigm shift probably third.
When the water breaks is fantastic too, although maybe too long of a song for a intro to the band. For an intro to LTE I usually go with Acid Rain or Universal Mind.
jim i like they way you do your reaction videos. we need more from dream theater. i like how you don't compare bands to another. keep up the good work
Awww, thanks John.
The instrument at 13:30 reminds me of Brute Shot from Halo (2?).
The keytar Jordan plays is called a Zen Riffer
23:50 not only the music, but after this project, Jordan Rudess joined Dream Theater and produced the series of the best records DT ever did... they couldn't have done it without JR
The best rock keyboardist by far
And there you go. now you have my 3 favorite drummers covered. Marko Minnemann(steven Wilson), Gavin Harrison(Porcupine Tree), Mike Portnoy(Liquid Tension Experiment) hehe.
I can't recommend "The Flying colors" enough tho. thats the best Projekt of Mike Portnoy for me, closely followed by "The whinery dogs".
They're my 3 favourite drummers, too!
Yes, you have good taste my man!
you have a good eye/ear for exceptional timings/techniques then :)
I have great respect for Portnoy, but he can’t touch these 3: Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta, and Steve Gadd.

@@davidwoodroffe3986 hard to compare as we needed to see them play similar genres. But definitely 3 of the best drummers ever yep
Try group Octavision song Three Lives. Put together by Hovak Alaverdian. He wrote it and plays lead guitar. Prog Metal music.
Please more dream theater
U NEED TO THE WHOLE CONCERT!!!!!!
I give you my likes because you look like Jordan Rudess 😂✌️
Gaz Top going hard on the keys.
i think the most impressive thing is too keep al the timings and parts in your head while palying this xD
Well I like your take on the best musicians ever put together. I've watched alot of takes and reactions to my favorite band, this side thing and Dream Theater proper. Yours is up there. Subbed. Tman!.....
You should listen to more Dream Theater, dude!!
I definetly believe that Petrucci take the best of his talent when he played with Portnoy... unbelievable!!!
Just a standard intro to any dream theater song this 😂
nope
@@liteton yup
@@theanunnaki334 u right but nope but u right
LTE are reforming! Jordan did a video last week where he sneaks out the info!!
When the levee breaks, the water breaks as well.
Oh, and PS: A Change of Seasons. Please. hahahaha
Live 2000 so much better than studio version btw
Hey Jim,
You'll findout eventually that Mike Portnoy is a "workaholic", but LTE has been on hiatus for a few years because he is not in Dream Theater anymore (for 3 albums), and it was a HUGE deal for us fans (still is for many). I do enjoy the 3 albums with their Drummer Mike Mangini (who has played with Steve Vai among many others, and is friends with Portnoy), but Portnoy was a force to be reckoned with, not only as a drummer, but as a driving force for the band, kept in close contact with their fans, made sure there were Live vidz for each tour, providing "rare" tracks and doing "Cover" songs, and involved in their merchandise. But these days, I see his many side-projects/bands as more to enjoy, with great talents as well in each of them.
Eventually you'll get to; Transatlantic, Mike Portnoy's Amazing Journey, Yellow Matter Custard, Cygnus and the Sea Monsters, Neal Morse/Neal Morse Band, Flying Colors, Adrenaline Mob, Winery Dogs, Metal Allegiance, and current band, Sons of Apollo.
Also here are the "auditions" Dream Theater had when Portnoy took a hiatus, or fired, or split (a few vids out there with Portnoy's side and DT's version, but I digress): ruclips.net/p/PL2DU3TBNutEfMeG1MuXyZk4MHVIlfrDx6
Don't forget to checkout "District 97 - Snow Country" for a reaction video :). Even though, I may be the only one to know about them in your audience (well . . . maybe 2?) :p. ruclips.net/video/TduqAiwp89E/видео.html
Fun reaction video for LTE, its been awhile since I've watched that DVD.
Thanks matey, as always, appreciate the comments. Yes, he's a machine. There's a lot of material to go after from him. Surely it can't ALL be as good? Guess I'll be finding out soon enough!!
An encapsulation of what people ask "Elephant Memory" Portnoy; "How do you REMEMBER all those songs!?
ruclips.net/video/kWbQ8UUgj3U/видео.html
You're damn right, actually his best material post DT, in my opinion, is similitude of a dream - neal morse band. Funny thing, he had a fight with other guys in the band because he didn't want to make a double album to not be compared with dream theater astoningshit. There's nothing to be compare with :o
"Jack Luminous"-- Voivod
Everytime I watch this video I get pissed off at the cameraman who shot it... during Petrucci's solos he focuses in on Rudess, Portnoy and Levin, totally neglecting John's masterful fingerwork! Grrrrr...
Shorten?
Symphony X - The Accolade
It is an epic, astonishing track though Acid rain rocks too.
beautiful almost too emotional, melodies in this too, I believe it was written right when John's wife was having there kid so it makes sense.
@@michaelrene2551 Which John?
I Actually like the show from BBking' s in NYC better
Jordan plays the Bat'Leth..
When you gonna do a review of Protest the Hero- Cest La Vie?
Um, when you recommend it/them? Never heard of them I'm afraid. Suggest a song, provide a link ands I'll have a crack at it! :)
@@JimNewstead ruclips.net/video/1H4eEJXLFlQ/видео.html
Here ya go guy; it's got the lyrics in the description. I think you'll dig them a lot!
Who is Mike Mangini? I've never heard of him...
go watch this video of firegarden suite and you will know who he is :D ==> ruclips.net/video/N1-8j9zhdOE/видео.html
Arguable one of the most technical and fastest drummer alive.
First time I played this album I nearly jizz my pants, love the improvs.
It's as though the video director said, "Don't film the guy with the chapman stick. Nobody will be interested in that."
He also said ''don't film the guys playing the guitar and keyboard during their solos''. The camera work was shocking.
And the engineer must have said, “nobody really wants to hear the bass. It’s extremely prominent on the album, but who cares.”
Jim aka British Jordan rudess
Shortened it? What a silly idea!
Anekdoten - books of hours
The Aristocrats - Bad Asteroid
Who would've thought if you get a bunch of A+ musicians together they write some utterly unmemorable.
No one "serves the song" here. It's like mixing to many colours it just comes out black.
But every musician is obviously unbelievably proficient. But the so g itself.. thoroughly unenjoyable and filled with tropes 😅
it ise me.
you sound like gru =))
Only Portnoy can make 4/4 sound like 48183/13
They had to stop the LTE jamming sessions as the waters broke from Portnoya wife and he had to leave to hospital for the delivey of his unborn child. Hence the name
sebulban petrucci’s wife
@@anthonywhite4831 Thanks. My mind plays tricks on me :)
actually.. all of LTE songs is an unofficial dreamtheater song that never got out from studio.. so mr. portnoy decide to make a side project (approved by petrucci and rudess) that let all of their masterpiece can out from the studio..
No! Just no! Stop misinforming people.
LTE was idealized by the people at Magna Carta Records, who wanted Mike Portnoy to assemble a supergroup of musicians, in the same vein they had done with the Bozzio Levin Stevens project. Portnoy came up with a list of names, ended up without a guitarist for the first time they tried to make it happen, then ended up choosing his own bandmate Petrucci for the second time. These four guys got together and the rest is history.
Too much skinhead in one screen
Toni Levin - respect! But...
Technical skills of these four musicians are beyond comprihension, but not a surprise to anyone anymore. For me this represents Dream Theater way of approach to music: Everyone plays everything they can in every song which make the songs lose all creativity, unpredictability and most of all the essence, soul. I thought this kind of music to be best possible music in the world, when I was 15. Sorry, can't like this.
