- Sting Englishman in New York live 2022 Instrumental cover by Guthrie Govan on guitar and Zak Barrett on soprano saxophone. "Englishman in New York" is a song by English singer Sting, from his second studio album ...Nothing Like the Sun, released in October 1987. Branford Marsalis played soprano saxophone on the track, while the drums were played by Manu Katché and the percussion by Mino Cinélu. Sting wrote the song about the famous eccentric and gay icon Quentin Crisp, who is the "Englishman" of the title. The song was composed not long after Crisp had moved from London to an apartment in the Bowery in Manhattan. Sting had met him and Crisp remarked jokingly to the musician that he "looked forward to receiving his naturalisation papers so that I can commit a crime and not be deported." When Sting asked him what kind of crime, he answered, "Something glamorous, non-violent, with a dash of style. Crime is so rarely glamorous these days." Sting included this story in the liner notes of his album ...Nothing Like The Sun.
Watch Guthrie Govan play Englishman In New York on his Charvel signature guitar alongside Sax player Zak Barrett on stage in Southend-on-Sea, England UK May 15th 2022. The instruments do the song lyrics! Every guitarist can learn a lesson on jazz blues and rock guitar fusion watching Guthrie Govan playing guitar live. Guthrie Govan's guitar improvisation technique is second to none. Rick Beato recently made a video declaring Guthrie Govan the best rock guitarist in the world ever seen in his career.
Guthrie Govan live tour is underway in America with his band The Aristocrats. Guthrie Govan is an English guitarist and guitar teacher endorsed by Charvel Guitars with his own signature model. His guitar music can be heard on major Hollywood films from X-Men to the lastest Dune movie thanks to his work with Hans Zimmer. Guthrie is a guitar player known for his work with the bands the Aristocrats, Asia, GPS, the Young Punx and the Fellowship, as well as his solo project Erotic Cakes. More recently, he has collaborated with Steven Wilson and Hans Zimmer. He is a noted guitar teacher, working with the UK magazine Guitar Techniques, Guildford's Academy of Contemporary Music, Lick Library, and formerly the Brighton Institute of Modern Music. Govan was named "Guitarist of the Year" by Guitarist magazine in 1993. Guthrie Govan guitar lessons have taught guitarists from all over the world who could see a guitar lesson on sites like Lick Library.
The original Englishman in New York song is composed in the key of B-minor. It is mainly the same chord progression throughout the song (except in the bridge): Em - A - Bm. The functions in the key of the chords are iv - VII - i. The soprano saxophone that plays over the song mainly plays the minor scale in Bm. In the bridge the chords change to D - A - Bm - F#, G - A - F# - Bm. This corresponds with III - VII - i - V, VI - VII - V - i.
The single was released in February 1988 as the third single from the album, but only reached #51 on the UK Singles Chart. In the US, "Englishman in New York" peaked at #84 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in April 1988 and reached #32 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart that same month. However, the single was more successful in continental Europe, becoming a hit in several countries,reaching the Top 40 (and sometimes the Top 20) in France, Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, etc. "Englishman in New York" was also a Top 20 hit in Ireland. In South Africa, it peaked at no. 9.
In 1990, just prior to the release of his third studio album The Soul Cages, Sting's record label licensed Dutch DJ and producer Ben Liebrand to remix "Englishman in New York" and subsequently released it as a single. The remix played around with the introduction and some of the instrumentation, but the essence of the song remained the same. The new version was commercially successful, reaching number 15 in the UK charts in mid-1990.
In 2010, Sting re-recorded the song in an orchestral version for his album Symphonicities.
"Englishman/African In New York", a reworking of the song recorded with African artist Shirazee was released as a non-album digital-only single on 19 March 2021. Shirazee had previously covered the song as "African in New York" with Sting's approval. Sting and Shirazee released a music video and performed the song on ABC's Good Morning America.

Guthrie is perhaps the finest improvisation guitarist since Allan Holdsworth. Guthrie can play any style which gives him an unbelievable advantage over most anyone.
Check Pat Metheny
Frank Gambale
@@yoelcapoful Been a fan for years. Pat is great but he can't play the styles that Guthrie can and change mid song.
@@robertpalenkahu3259 Love Frank, but just as I said about Pat Matheny, he can't play the styles Guthrie does and switch up in mid phrase.
@@SIXSTRING63 Pat's impro vocabulary is levels above Guthrie's. Not trying to put anyone down, but that's a no brainer.
As a guitarist I'm a big fan of Guthrie already but WTF THIS SAX SOUNDS SO GOOD
Go follow Zak barrett on Instagram and Facebook! He is the man!
Took the words out of my mouth, (and a few others, I reckon).
you probably should check out Guthrie Govan & The Fellowship. I'm not gonna say anything else but I think you'll like it.
If you like guitar and soprano sax, you can also listen to Mouvements from Birelli Lagrene :)
@@gregorisomariva2031 Isn't that what we are doing?
LMAO Guthire ending the song with the Simpson's outro, brilliant.
For those that don't know it's the still scene of the audience watching the big screen in the theater at the end of every episode of The Simpsons
Guthrie loves the Simpsons hence his first album being called erotic cakes... Homer comes to our real world in an episode and sees a sign that says erotic cakes and reads it aloud as only homer can OHHH EROTIC CAKES.
Gracie films I think?
We will never EVER see another player with the technical abilities of GG. No competition as they say in Music but he far outweighs anybody
So funny with people who argue that Guthrie can only shred and not play music. Obviously they don’t know much about music.
P.S that B major ending was so satisfying
This proves that Guthrie's licks are indeed metriculously crafted. They sound amazing on all kinds of instrument. But it also takes a great instrumentalist like you to make them shine!
This is why GG is the best guitarrrist and one of the best musicians alive. not cause the technique, not cause the speed.. cause of how many kind of different músic languages he mastering
En México existimos varios guitarristas con las mismas características de este guitarrista, tocamos muy diferentes y variados estilos, desde un Take Five, polkas, música caribeña, Rock, jazz, flamenco... ect. Saludos, 🙏💯🎸☀️
Two guys making music not to impress or to show off, but to enjoy and have fun. Musicianship at its finest. This was so beautiful and refreshing. GG is from another planet.
So happy you enjoyed it 👍👍
Yes, he is. And still that same humble musician and dude he has allways been. Connection with these incredible players are so good. But GG still surprises his fellow player in the end with that M9🤣. That audience were so lucky...
Actually I was impressed 😆😆
GG is a fking demigod.
Guthrie is a fascinating hooman being. I’d imagine all dogs would like him very much for his supreme yet so genuinely humble energy. I’m a 90’s chicagolander guy and grew up on Michael Jordan all over, black Jesus, and Guthrie is one of the few who routinely is dropping me jaws. And like MJ, his shine is in pure pursuit of personal excellence in his playing and craft and art, what an absolute fucking weapon. Transcendence embodied. I’d say he’s an alien but he appeals to the depths of the best of humanity.❤
100% mind blowing. Guthrie Govan is a genius and Zak Barrett is amazing.
Yeah man, Zak deserves a lot of credit!
Guthrie is so good he literally became an Englishman in newyork for the song
bro I love Guthrie is probably the best player in the whole world, but the saxo man is a fucking legend I swear
He definitely is! Zak Barrett 🎷
Guthrie is impossibly good. This kind of interaction just really highlights how amazing of a player and musician he is.
Dude, his Gracie Films theme at the end... super obscure, but hilarious for Simpsons fans
sounds like King of wishful thinking by Go west, to me.
the first guitarist to keep time with his eyebrows
Haha yep!
What's also amazing here is how "Englishman In New York" has evolved into a Jazz Standard. I'm all for it!
There was a moment there in conversation when I didn't realise Zak had stopped and Guthrie was mimicking the sax. Loved this. Both superb.
Guthrie slips between guitar comping, walking bass, bop lines, and soloing (and reggae dub!) seamlessly. I envy that..
Is Very good!!! Canavieiras Ba Brasil🇧🇷👏👏👏👏
If you listen at 5:55 GG is about to start the return riff back to the main song but realises Zak isn’t quite ready so turns it into something else. Amazing improvisation
Good eye and ear!
Hehe I don't know who counted wrongly. Zak makes this gesture, pointing at his head at 5:58. Guthrie quickly corrects as well, so they end up back to the main theme together. Class act.
Wow, yeah you're right. I heard the beginning of the phrase - Guthrie is lightning quick at switching it to something else, you can see the shock of realisation cross his face! Wow. I'm honestly amazed at the neurons firing in his brain here, very good spot!
Excellent ALL AROUND. Guthrie's bass-plus-rhythm comping beginning around 1:38 would make Charlie Hunter proud! 🙏
Just phenomenal, the best diverse guitarist of all time................amazing Guthrie!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lovely to see the mischievous joy on Guthrie’s face as he quotes Teddy Bears’ Picnic and gets the sax guy to join in.
Guthrie's level of improvisation is out of this world, no words can properly describe his virtuosity.
Two great musicians that love music, what else can we ask for?
For sure!
Amazing saxplayer, then you have Guthrie. simply untouchable.
Even Guthrie's eyebrows can't stop dancing.
So entertaining and musically brilliant. Guthrie Govan is so unbelievably versatile and technically gifted.
Even GG doesn't look like he can believe it at one point there. Amazing stuff here.
Definitely!
how lucky are the people who were in that club! Also it's so obvious that Guthrie is enjoying this so much. What a performance!
The quotes on both sides... Pretty sure I missed most of them. They're actually meming while playing some insanely good music.
the end whit the music of that ad after the simpsons in fox XD
Govan can play any style he wants!
I’m about to break my vow never to say who the world’s best guitarist is.
Marchbank to me. Govan is up there, but it is not close.
In the very beginning to much spicy for me, but after walking bass he is proving why this man is one of the best world guitarists. AWESOME!!!!
This Jam is a master class.
So many things to transcribe, really worth spending the time on the video 🎸🔥
There is a crop of young guitarists coming up, but Guthrie Govan proves that the old masters can still astound and amaze!
Other than Matteo Mancuso, not really.. And please dont name fake hipster bedroom emo guitarists like Tim Henson or Ichika Nito or I must laugh..
@@FSMusic86 Yes, Matteo Mancuso is at the top of my list, but there are others too like Mateus Asato, Andre Nieri, Lari Basilio, Plini, etc. that I think are superb. I've heard of Tim Henson and Ichika Nito before... it's not really my type of music (kinda boring and mechanical), but to be fair, they're quite creative. The advantage of the next generation guitarists is that they have full access to all the great music that came before them. Through the internet and technology they can dissect, analyze, and learn from the best. Much, much more than what I had when I was growing up.
I don't even think Govan is that old. He seens to have and old wizard look by purpose
Guthrie isn't even that old
Hope I won't be butchered here but I like Guthrie 10 times more when playing
clean tone
🙏🙏
Greatest guitar player of our time!
The most expressive eyebrows in music.
Guthrie is soooooo dam good. Incredible musician's.
finally, tea is better than coffee and beeer. cheers 🍻
This made me involuntarily smile. It's too good to not enjoy. Both musicians are talented, I'm here thanks to Guthrie, but stayed for the music itself.
Amazing!
Make no mistake, people!
There's no other better improviser in the world of guitar than this Monster of a Man -- Mr Guthrie called Govan!! ☝🔥👑
Simple as that! ☺🙏
Zak and Guthrie I know them both and they're playing and personality both work so well together both are genuine decent people who appreciate any one who's come along to see them great to see them having fun.
Thanks for checking in and watching John!
So natural playing. Two great musicians are just talking using their instruments. Thank you, ERS!
Glad to be of service Alex 👍
I need a bigger like button.
My God, he just feels it and goes. He is willing the other musicians to challenge him, any style, doesnt matter. Musical genius
An appropriately chosen tune for the occasion..Sir Govan in his element
How good is Guthrie Govan at playing anything you throw at him. This is pure gold.
Never noticed that Guthrie keeps the beat, and conducts, with his eyebrows!!
Of course guthrie nailed it, he is the alien.
👽🎸👽
Props to the sax player, but guthrie is insane
Just posted tonight's show with the pair
That was possibly the best ending to all that beautiful madness, Guthrie goat Govan!
One of the best covers of any song i heard so far...i mean...Guthrie Govan...come on! Zak is a beast too!
Yes HUGE props must be given to Zak Barrett for this performance!
Man! How I love 🎷too! 💓🔥
That ending 😅 guthrie is the musical meme lord!
It's a amazing when a Jam Session sound's like a conversation between a musicians.
This was jammed over a lot at the guildford acm and when they played together in places like the basement over chelmsford way. Awesome memories playing and being taught by him.
Very cool. His brother still teaches guitar in Chelmsford. I never got to see him at The Basement
@@EssexRecordingStudios I hope Seth is doing well and making a good living from teaching, such a hard industry which ever route you take ☹️ I was hoping that when he used to play bass on some of their gigs, that he would have the same success as Guthrie ☹️
love it when GG does this jazzy stuff
This is the best. The fun on stage throse 2 incredible musicians have, quoting away, improvising, absolutely incredible. Modern day Charlie Parker & John Coltrane.
Dropping the Gracie Films theme at the end was slickkk 😄
The best guitar player alive plays at small pubs wirh his looper and some folks❤
Great time to be alive!
guthrie keeps looking at me 😁
amazing guthrie and zak!!!
Even Guthrie's eyebrows are dancing in time with the music 😂
If Guthrie Govan isn't the greatest guitarist in this day and age I don't know who is!
me 😎
@@JulioLeonFandinho me too
Steve vai, Joe Satriani
Watch them play with him.. different league
Birelli
What can’t he do. Please release more Guthrie, grace us with your genius!
A new discovery! My new favourite guitar player
Branford would be proud
Wonderful impro by these 2
Guthrie really is somethin else
Good times had by all 🎼👍
That’s one of the best call and response sections I’ve ever seen.
Magnificent!
This is when you know an individual is a gifted musician. The ability to play different styles equally well with an authentic flavor says it all. The man can shred like it's nobody's business but play some solid, beautiful jazz accompaniment and solos just as naturally.
There is no jazz here but clever jamming over a reggae vamp
What did I just witness 🤯 🎸 🔥 🎷
Guthrie is the best guitarist, mr. guitarist 😍
Awesome on the sax, but the white wizard is on an entirely different plane!
Two pure musicians beautifully interacting
Damn Guthrie went gray faster than me!!LOL one of the most talented guys ever
Been dying his hair for years 🤣
Holy AMAZEBALLS!!!!!
The chemistry between these guys is awesome
Saxophone that's not annoying af, such a rare treat.
wow.....i mean.....WOW!!
More musical elegance is simply not possible.
Guthrie can play anything and the best guitarist in the world.
imagine walking to a bar and sees guthrie just sitting there and jam lol
Guthrie still turns up at open mic nights. I've watched both of them play together in The Fellowship for decades. They are good friends, and both have not a trace of ego about them. Zak's wife, Holly, is also a phenomenal saxophonist and a lovely lady.
Guthrie is excellent as well as playful like a child! I love this guy!
Beautiful playing team.
Thanks for recording this.
Superb view on both performers, superb sound as well.
I agree what Rick Beato said that Guthrie is the scariest Rock guitarist today, in addition I'd take out the "rock" and stick only the guitarist.
There's no such thing as the best, but Guthrie can play all genre with his own signature style and are distinctively different one another.
Joe Pass lives again!.................fab playing on all fronts....loved the bass as well
No bass!
the guitar does really sound bass-like from 1:38
3:36 - so melodic and catchy entrance by Guthrie
love how guthrie cracks zak up with his playing lol
Wow, i mean wowww! ❤
When he does the staccato arpeggios, it sounds like rain.
There's Holdsworth .
There's McLaughlin.
There's Fripp.
There's Dimeolia.
And yes There's another.
Govan.
He's right there.
Extremely Gifted .
Technically off the Charts.
Versatile.
Very Tasteful.
Love the Sax on this as well.
Great Piece.
Glad you enjoyed it. Just uploaded their Stevie Wonder cover from this show: ruclips.net/video/fST90ZIw6Ws/видео.html
I just finished the video. Guthrie (needless to say) is an amazing guitar player, the improvisations and the call and response between him and Zak is amazing! And may i say, Zak Barret is a very musical sax player! He has the chops obviously, but he makes the notes sound very musical, very pleasing to the ears. Thanks to you uploader, i just heard some real music today!
lev and taylor jammin away in the background haha!
Good eye!!
Gandalf on the guitar
Just sheer beauty. Eargasm.
186k views and not a single dislike. This is the first time I ran into a video ranked this much and doesn't have a single dislike. This shows how great Guthrie and Zak are.
I don't think dislikes are visible, but I echo your sentiment ;)
@@joelonsdale Hahahahah I've gotta chill about Guthrie Govan 😂
@@gokberkemreakyuz4066 I don't think you should chill -- let it all out!
