    Eric is a unique musician. He is known to be a perfectionist but anybody with sharp enough ear can listen hear and realize that perfection paid off, because this album
    (and his others) shine with musical brillance.. One of my favorite rock guitarists. He is
    (in my opinion) one of the most musical players, love his style, His music is so good, that it never gets old, it is a sonic treat everytime I listen to it.

      *I know one of the engineers that worked on Ah Music Viacom. Told me about some conversations he had with Johnson while they were mixing it at the Sound Castle. Not very happy ones either lol.*

      So is Ah Via Musicon and Tones. You can tell he is very spiritual and emotional. His music touches your soul and it makes you feel at peace.

    The solo that starts in 4:45... In that point, Eric quit playing guitar. He's talking with God. A big hug from Brazil!

    the LONG outro solo on this song is my most favorite EJ lead ever!

    Such a talented man. Ive been listening to Eric Johnson since I was a kid - My dad loved him and would play his songs on the guitar for my brothers and I all the time - My dad has since passed away and EJ's songs are so emotional for me now as an adult because they remind me of being young and happy. This song especially, with the guitar parts, its perfect.

      Sorry to hear of your Dad's passing Bethany. Happy for you that your Dad shared a bond with you and you appreciate the music of Eric Johnson. Truly talented musician. I've seen EJ numerous times live in Austin and Houston and he never fails to disappoint.

    Amazing how well he pulls his killer selection of songs off live...perfection. Everyone is so entranced with his playing that they forget to light their drugs up...so awesome is this guy in concert. My late brother, who I treated to one of his concerts said, "is there a fret he doesn't use...and I laughed....lol, I said, I told you that you wouldn't be disappointed....RIP Brother.....if it wasn't for you I would never love so many different styles of music...am in tears now...damnit....

    The delicate timbres he produces with clean tones on this song are pure, unadulterated ear candy. Never tire of his stuff. And echoing other comments, this made have been his apex of that particular thing he was going for. Perfectionist? Yeah, and thank goodness!!

    Always wished he would play this live... he exercises restraint for the first 4 1/2 minutes with most of his focus on clean and tasteful chord melodies, then 4:43 is like a cheetah being let out of a cage

      @Mtns14000 2 года назад

    Hello, my name is Paul and i write music and have some of my stuff uploaded on youtube. My influence on guitar has always been Eric Johnson. Just thought i'd share some of my music. There is no fancy leads like Eric but just pretty clean guitar. I recorded it all on my Roland Juno Gi. Type in Paul Horn. I'm bad with song names so i just thought of "Passion". Hope ya enjoy!!

      @jinooot 2 года назад

      @@peterdaldry8646 I do not have the book but when i tried playing it by ear, The most convenient way for me to play it is to pick the 4th string then followed by finger picking the second string then hammer on for the next note. is 2:07 the section you meant by interlude?

    • @peterdaldry8646
      @peterdaldry8646 Год назад

      ​@@jinooot It's the first fast section. It sounds like he's sweep picking and hammering on and pulling off!
      I believe it's called interlude A in the tab book. Reading the tab there are no hammering or pull offs.. we'll maybe at the end of the phrase.. a slide and pull off. The way it's tabbed, they have you picking every note.. at that speed it seems impossible! Maybe it's the tone and effect he's using. Is it just me who's having problems nailing this haha 😄 gies a break Eric!

    I had no idea about it, however leaving aside the ego, the commercial objective Striani pursued and perhaps jealousy (though I doubt he was jealous) don't you think that anyone who has musical skill,knowledge and musical understanding like Joe would consider this one an aweasome piece of music?

    I was not being sarcastic, perhaps you misunderstood me. That is one possible conclusion; the one you try to convince me about is that Joe is not fond of Eric and that he has a totally different understanding of musical success and he would not like this song because of personal issues.
