"Flying in a Blue Dream" far and away my favorite Joe Satriani song. Love all his music? But this song has always just spoken to me. Might not be under-rated? Under-appreciated? It's a pretty cool video accompanying this version too. Nicely done. Hard to make one of the coolest songs ever? Even cooler? This video gets pretty damn close. Only thing I'd have done differently? I always pictured Joe flying on the back of a Joe-sized blue Ibanez 7 string guitar, while playing another blue Ibanez 7 string. Same basic idea? But make the guitar the spaceship. Kinda like updating the guitars as spaceships on the covers of Boston's first two albums. I dunno. It seemed like a really cool idea while I was thinking about it? Now? Not as sure. Truly though? That's the only thing I'd modify in this video. And I'm not a CGI wizard as the creator of this video obviously is? But I would like to believe it'd be a fairly straightforward process simply creating that blue Ibanez 7 string ship (with Joe reclining comfortably as he's playing and flying?) and then just dropping or inserting it into the space occupied by the silver spaceship in this video. I think I've always imagined that Joe was controlling his flight through the Blue Dream just by playing his guitar. I dunno. Maybe it's more complicated than I suspect and that's why this ship is flying instead. Anyway. One person's two cents.
LoL, and here we go, with the absolutes..... Ok, I'll play along. So then, we'll jus sweep the likes of steve Howe, lindsey Buckingham, peter Frampton, mark knopfler, buddy Guy and django Rheinhardt-----to name but a few - - - - under th table for now....
ofc there are many incredible players out there.....joe satriani is fire ofc...........but there are many many special players.personally i like rory gallagher,the work he did in the song a millions miles away(and ofc other songs).....and im feeling travelling in space when i hear the solo of stairway to heaven live in 1974......
My inspiration as a guitarist grew from my musical experience from Satriani!!! The way he trained Steve Vie and his love of Hendrix....man, I loved Hendrix too...Thank you Joe for everything!!! Keep rocking on my man!!!!
This was the most anticipated album i could remember. I had been playing and learning the Surfing album religiously for a year and when i got this home and played this first track i couldn't believe it, the hair on my arms stood up i had goose bumps i had never heard any piece of music so profound before
i remember hearing surfin’ on the old fm driving through the flatlands of Illinois late night for the shit job i had at the time. Steve Dahl and Gary Meyer, djs out of Chicagoland played every tune on that disc every night. i was hooked ever since. this cut is one of his best.
This was the first CD I ever had. My brother bought it for me after he gave me my first CD player as a gift - Otherwise I would have had nothing to play on it.
Just like Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure movie type graphics instead phone booth it has The Last Starfighter version going through Time Vortex 👍😉💯🥰
Went to see JS at (ahem) the London Palladium (2023-05-17) and noted they used this video as the back projections for FIABD. Some years after the video was made!
I just love how Joe has changed up this song thru the years ...almost like the song matured or “evolved” 30 years later..who’s with me on this thought?
@@user-dz9yx3et9y it has. Some licks are different live, and i think they work well. Hey, even the start of the main riiff, he plays it differently live, and it's better.
Watching this video gives me goosebumps I would love to watch this on a big screen with surround sound unbelievable my two younger siblings my brother and my sister passed away in the last three and a half years and they truly love this song that's what I Vision them doing up there they're riding in a blue dream together drinking a cold Bud having a great time together thanks for posting this it was beautiful
Man the original comment almost broke me in half. First let me just say Joe Satriani is without question one of the greatest guitar players to walk the Earth ever and I seriously doubt will ever be truly matched and you can forget about anyone surpassing his over all mastery of not just the guitar but the music catalog he has written and recorded thru the years, but I digress ~ Flying In A Blue Dream is 100% inspired. So it's understood that means Joe composed it while "in spirit"....taking nothing away from Joe writing the song, on the contrary it's a huge compliment imo. So my mom died in 1993 at 54yo from lung cancer. She started smoking at 14yo and exactly 40 years later she passed on, leaving her body she then experienced something I call Flying In A Blue Dream......30 years ago I silently dedicated this song to my absolutely wonderful mom, her name is Grace and she wears it well. I've never told anyone til now, not that it matters to anyone's thoughts but mine..... Before I get gone I read a guys comment to Luminous Flesh Giants about 2 years ago and here's what he said. "When I die I want my friends to smoke my ashes while this song is playing at my funeral/memorial".................. Joe Satriani is quite possibly one of the most powerful people to ever play the guitar. Fortune and Fame, financial gain, mainstream understanding of success have nothing to do with me and mine and what I call POWER THAT MONEY CAN'T BUY. Any dirt bag can stoke the flames, just look around. Last time I checked top floor is difficult to access especially when the elevator only goes down....time for me to fly, that's what I'll do if I have it my way. Enjoy the ride, maybe I'll see ya around
Being my favorite guitar players teacher says a lot. But your guitar playiny says it all. Thank you for your awsome talent. Kirk hammet definitely learned from the best. 😘❤️🤘😝🤘
I got the shirt from the show that never happened. Ottawa Bluesfest.😮 When the stage came down on Cheap Trick... Joe was up next on the other stage. Then mayhem. I just stood there eating a hotdog. It was surreal. My favourite song ever.
I used to wear headphones in my helmet while skydiving to this. Many times, I would be last out of the plane, and open my parachute at 13, 000 feet and slowly drift down, while listening.... flying close to, through light clouds
Twas perfect for a Sunday cruise on a beautiful summers day with your beautiful & beloved girl in a beautiful blown out 77 Firebird then and Still is Today !!!
Songs beauty just brought a tear to my eye brings back floods of nostalgic memories and this is literally my first time hearing this song man "Getcha Pull"
I am a Synesthete, where I can relate words and colors to sounds, for some reason, the title suits the chords and the sounds of the guitar. Sir Joe might have it too cause he's so good at giving titles to his somgs that suits so much.
I was born in 1976, picked up ah guitar in '84, discovered Satch in '87, dreaming #11, the crush of love, not of this earth, moms took me to see ya at rogues in va beach in 98 or 99, you have taught me so much, thank you Joe Satriani.
@@stewartabel Thank You,Stewart.Do you have any flight experience?I do and the fact that this fantasy happens in space means that ,unlike in the atmosphere,you would feel no gravitational reference-the only reference is visual,relative to other objects.In a plane youre aware that you have gone upside down.There is no up or down in space.
Man, that was killer! This depiction of Satch's song reminds me of the night I first heard it on the radio. Yes, that long ago. I was driving in the desert, I forget where to, but it was very dark, I could only see the road in front of me and not much else. The radio faded into this song, and I realized that I had felt all alone...till this came on. I didn't have the spaceship in mind, but I could see Joe with a huge set of white wings luminous in the sky and streaming through evening clouds. Rolling and dodging, blasting through puffy blue gray giant clouds while shredding an Ibanez and smiling, laughing as he burst into view after being drenched with precipitous atmospheric phenomena. Gods, this is a beautiful song! When I saw him on tour fornthjs album, my now ex remarked that he looked like he was having sex with his guitar. Being a guitarist myself, interested in improv, I said yeah, that's what he's doing. She looked at me funny, but that's why we need to learn music, or something that is other worldly... even surfing, skiing, whatever it is that you can lose yourself in and let your spirit do the talking.
How many years I'm listening Joe's magic music... only in this evening I have one question or interest in What☝ What will say AI about Joe's music🤔 Will AI understands it🤔? Or will it be damaged by the Great Unknown?🤔 Have A Great Days Joe💪 Thank you for your music 💪❤
Best way to be high🙃 great video. Listened to this song many years each day. Today l realized. Age 53... Asik Veysel songs are great. Joe, it works bro...

Right there with ya brother "Getcha pull"
My 2 year old loves this video! I pull out my phone and he says "Spaceship"
Reborn in this. Got bogged in alien surfing

2022 I'm still here....... No need for words ...the titles and playing are usually enough to let you feel his music. An absolute master .❤
This guy is the best guitar player in the world hands down..
Oui sûrement après Ron thal
LoL, and here we go, with the absolutes..... Ok, I'll play along.
So then, we'll jus sweep the likes of steve Howe, lindsey Buckingham, peter Frampton, mark knopfler, buddy Guy and django Rheinhardt-----to name but a few - - - - under th table for now....

No he is not. But this solo is one of the 50 best guitarsolos ever recorded
Total word up to Steve Lyttle for the video. Lights out, headphones...what an experience! Well done Steve Lyttle.

AND ON THIS DATE YOALL LOL DECEMBER 4TH
2024 here, still in tears hearing this
Love Joe Satariani
Joe Satriani is one of my favorite guitarists of all time!!
This was the most anticipated album i could remember. I had been playing and learning the Surfing album religiously for a year and when i got this home and played this first track i couldn't believe it, the hair on my arms stood up i had goose bumps i had never heard any piece of music so profound before
Bought this album for 1.99 at the thrift store when I was 18. Never regretted that day
i remember hearing surfin’ on the old fm driving through the flatlands of Illinois late night for the shit job i had at the time. Steve Dahl and Gary Meyer, djs out of Chicagoland played every tune on that disc every night. i was hooked ever since. this cut is one of his best.
This was the first CD I ever had. My brother bought it for me after he gave me my first CD player as a gift - Otherwise I would have had nothing to play on it.
I concur... This Masterpiece invokes a profound physiological reaction... Spontaneous Joy of BEing 🙏💙
imo it's still his best album. Up in The Sky is my favorite track - proilly cus it was teh first song I also heard him play live.
2023 GO TANKS STEVEN IS A MAGIC AMAZING VIDEO FLY MY MIND AND SOUL AND TANKS SO MUCH MR JOE SATRIANI EPIC 🔈🔉🔊🎼🎵👍🥇🏆

Great video Steve ! Satriani blows my mind
2:38 that's simply amazing...
The video is epic .. the song remains even more epic !! Loving this in 2021 .. was a teenager in 1993.
I remembered picking this up at a music store in 1989, and this song blew me away. Now 34 years later, I have this amazing video to go with it.
Super
Just saw Joe Sunday night in Cleveland and he played this video on the screens during the song, very cool!
Meet him @the exit in Downtown Nashville tn with Patsy Cline Son Randy Dick is his name very kool dude 7 years ago.
As another Ohioan, so jealous of this
Аз съм тук защото има музика.
Еха.. SATRIANI
I just love how Joe has changed up this song thru the years ...almost like the song matured or “evolved” 30 years later..who’s with me on this thought?
Now I want to hear the more recent versions. Thanks for that heads up.
what you talking about it hasnt changed at all
@@user-dz9yx3et9y it has. Some licks are different live, and i think they work well. Hey, even the start of the main riiff, he plays it differently live, and it's better.
@@GuzmanMPetit this version is no different than recording
@@GuzmanMPetit can you time stamp what's different I want to compare to the studio recorsings6
Saw satch at hammersmith odeon London in the late 80s 👌
Yeah to all the fans let's keep it alive for ever
This really steps it up at the end
He's the Master,
The Master! The Professor! Hands down, he's the best and greatest guitarist ever!!
This song is still part of my in-flight playlist.
Watching this video gives me goosebumps I would love to watch this on a big screen with surround sound unbelievable my two younger siblings my brother and my sister passed away in the last three and a half years and they truly love this song that's what I Vision them doing up there they're riding in a blue dream together drinking a cold Bud having a great time together thanks for posting this it was beautiful
Sorry about your loss, hope all is well
That's a tough loss. This amazing uplifting track got me through losing my brother. Stay strong, they'd want you to. Peace.

I got the shirt from the show that never happened. Ottawa Bluesfest.😮 When the stage came down on Cheap Trick... Joe was up next on the other stage. Then mayhem. I just stood there eating a hotdog. It was surreal.

Cool. Thanks for sharing.
Incredible work of art.
Such a cool video to another Satriani masterpiece! 🚀🎸🎶
Magic magic absolutely magic Mr. JOE ❤
Epic video!!!
I am a Synesthete, where I can relate words and colors to sounds, for some reason, the title suits the chords and the sounds of the guitar. Sir Joe might have it too cause he's so good at giving titles to his somgs that suits so much.
Yesss...

Love this song, heard this and potato head and was immediately pulled into the rest of the LP.

A certain bunny general from space taught him quite well
The sheer joy of flying.

Will AI understands it🤔?
Or will it be damaged by the Great Unknown?🤔
Have A Great Days Joe💪
Thank you for your music 💪❤
Quelques notes et un génie pour les accordées. Voilà...
