Uli is one of the most humble and generous people that I have had the pleasure to meet. The Sky Academy lession was the best $97 that I have ever spent. The experience is TRANSCENDENT. Thank you Uli Jon Roth!!!!
I love that U.J.Roth is an eternal Hippie ...He s a real real real artist ! His contributions to Scorpions from 1974-1978 gave a cult flavor to that band ...
It was such a great honor to play a Hendrix song along with maestro Uli in Jimi's hometown! You guys were amazing hosts! Thanks for capturing and uploading this!
You don't need to be a Guitar player to benefit from the Sky academy. Uli truly explains balance in life, art and in all things. As a photographer Uli has helped me fine tune and see things to create the best images possible.
There are a VERY few players (still active) where you can hear a dozen measures of improvised playing and go...I know who that is. EVH is one for sure; Vai is another. Both of these guys do it with technique and tone...Uli does it with pure tone. Listen at 7:15> ...tone. The most underrated player on the planet.
That guitar must have 30 frets available to him on the high E!!! on average 8 frets more, which gives him another whole octave to utilize!! ...and the "sky guitar" with 7 strings...Uli you never cease to amaze me!!
Brilliant.... I've seen Uli play live with the Scorpions and Electric Sun, Uli is indeed the Master, the greatest, most gifted guitar player that ever lived, bar none.......And I worship Michael Schenker, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Joe Satriani, etc, etc....
Many thnx for posting & sharing this clip! I love Uli's music & just a humble person, I was fortunate to invite me to his soundcheck back in 2007, what show!! Have a great week & thnx for stoping by my homepage!
Hope a video is soon forthcoming. Had the pleasure of seeing him in Chicago in 1984 and saw him and met him in Milwaukee in 2004. We need a best of from this tour. Some of us old fans can't get out to the shows anymore. Thanks for the post.
wow! I never listen to this guy play i thought i was gonna here some old timer play some run down version of jimmy not this guy he is great! Great playing!
He did compose some really out of this world weird guitar licks during his time with The Scorpions ...try listening to Sails Of Sharon - the original album version... listening to the tone live and loud in a concert then in the mid seventies was just so amazing ...one of those licks that make you wanna learn to play on stage
OMG, he's one of those old stickler no effect guys playing that crappy plain kitchen sink sound.. This dude would sound so much better with a simple boss delay pedal and a guarantee he'd never do it
Is this the tour where he opened for MSG? If so - I saw it in CA, Concord. Had a bar full of people wondering where the Scorps lead guitar player had gone to and who was this person doing Vivaldi. Until he did this. 8-) I Uli - no matter what he's playing!
Hey Tony Christopher from Harbor View or whatever it was called across from Jasmine Creek --- If you are watching this channel can I get in touch with you about that tape where you and Pete Rumbello jammed with Uli in your garage circa 1985 or so....
Pretty standard rendition (not a bad thing) of a great song, and well played. However, Uli is not a very good singer. I still can't get over his non-anchored picking hand. Wild.
if you listen to his early solo stuff, his voice is actually pretty good, you gotta think, hes an old man now...on top of an english speaking german accent.
His vocals aside...yes he's a virtuoso, and in my top 10 list of favorite guitar heroes...the opening to this song was amazing...love the closed eyes and look of pure happiness on his face. He is classically trained, so the transition to rock was lucky for us all. If you want to see his (arguably) best youtube video, you'll have to travel back to 1977 and the Scorpions video of "Sails of Chiron"... ruclips.net/video/ByL-vOxNASg/видео.html

Thank you Uli Jon Roth!!!!
He asks everyone he meets what instrument they play.
I love that U.J.Roth is an eternal Hippie ...He s a real real real artist ! His contributions to Scorpions from 1974-1978 gave a cult flavor to that band ...
Uli Jon Roth... one of the all time GREATS! A guitar maestro and master!
AudiophileTubes I've met him
Me too, I was once a guest of his at a number of gigs around the UK!! 1893, Astral Skies tour - awesome......
One of the best guitarists of all times!! This performance was awesome and was not even his best!
Rogerio Werneck - agreed Rogerio, Uli is indeed The Master!!
Hm, not soo special actually.
I have seen uli many times and he never let's me down. He is the best pure player.
jeff rue I've met him and had a picture with him
Love that Hendrix is remembered and complimented!
Amazing technique, amazing gutar hero Uli!!!
He's not a Jimi clone just a great guitarist . I still have my Tokyo Tapes cassette just amazing.
Uli Roth is a Guitar God! He is the King of the Hard Rock guitarists!
And one of Fender Startocaster kings as well.
RockHeavyMetal StratoCohen I've met Roth

Wow, effortless playing. Just brilliant.
Oh my god. I've stumbled upon a gem here, most definitely. Where was I for this, I go to El Corazon all the fucking time. Well done Mr. Roth
Yep there should be a sign on the wall that says "Bad Motherfucker Parking here"
How could 24 people not like this ? ..

+Terrie Ron Schock Agreed. MS another - Meniketti also. And Satch.
Terrie Ron Schock most underrated??
He's not underrated, he's spent his whole life getting the accolades he deserves.....
Marino
I saw Uli Jon Roth live in Newcastle. Amazing gig. You need to see him live!!!
Love his playing
He makes it seem so easy
A legendary artist with a legendary song I think it's perfect
That guitar must have 30 frets available to him on the high E!!! on average 8 frets more, which gives him another whole octave to utilize!!
...and the "sky guitar" with 7 strings...Uli you never cease to amaze me!!
Amazing technique, amazing gutar hero Uli Roth the one

What a GORGEOUS guitar! I want one! And I don't even play!
scalloped neck as well
Dave Williams Shell out 11k and it can be yours! > www.deanguitars.com/query?upc=819998128449
Dave Williams -Yes, it is a gorgeous guitar. It’s called a “Sky Guitar”.
Kool MaDa Try $20k now! Lol
Quel artiste notre virtuose Uli Jon Roth, un bonheur musical une interprétation toujours réussie il est incroyable Uli Jon Roth, j'adore !!
Oh he’s is very unique and he kicksass in concert 🤘😎
Wow. One of the best things I've ever heard.
Yes, Dylan wrote the song, but "Watchtower" is Jimi's masterpiece studio performance.
Watchtower Frank marino..?
This is beyond awesome man!!! Multiple Eargasms!
This is probably the best version of this from anyone
Frank Marino
Best version Frank marino
Sorry , best version , Snail's -Pace Slim ( Barry Martin ) English band : The Hamsters.
MONSTRO, ESTÁ ENTRE OS GRANDES MESTRES DA GUITARRA!
Wow...Uli...amazing ...as always.
Many thnx for posting & sharing this clip!
I love Uli's music & just a humble person, I was fortunate to invite me to his soundcheck back in 2007, what show!!
Have a great week & thnx for stoping by my homepage!
yes he does own the last black &white strat jimi was pictured with///& he deserves too no one like him today playing
Uli is one of the best ever!
José Gonzales på Limhamn even better whenhe comes to your school
i believe UJR IS THE BEST EVER OF ALL TIME
Uli and Frank Marino do this song justice. 👍👌👏
Agreed
☮️
No they did not. James Marshall Hendrix did this song justice.🫵🫵👈

I hold Uli Roth in the highest regard. His playing on Catch Your Train epitomizes his brilliance for me. But his singing - I don't know about that.
This looks amazing in HD settings make sure you adjust your settings to 720 or 1080!
🎉 hello, alla"round the watchtower was publiced in London 1968
Pure soul and finesse.
the greatest virtuoso ever...
? ? ? ? ? ? Lol ! . . .
He's coming to Montreal on February 2nd.I will be there!
coolest looking axe ever
wow! I never listen to this guy play i thought i was gonna here some old timer play some run down version of jimmy not this guy he is great! Great playing!

I wasn't prepared for this.
After hearing so many wanna-bees try to cover his masterpiece, I think somewhere, Jimi is finally smiling.
OMG, he's one of those old stickler no effect guys playing that crappy plain kitchen sink sound.. This dude would sound so much better with a simple boss delay pedal and a guarantee he'd never do it
Na, it's not very good.. I'll give hi. A couple sparking licks, vocals sucked, lead was basic.. Over rated
This song was not a Hendrix cover.It was written and originally done by Bob Dylan
Uli Jon Roth is God!!!!
Uli's the best...
Uli Jon Roth RULES!
The legend
maestro!!!!!!!! the best!!!
awesome
Loved it did bob dylan and jimi proud
Super!
Yeah!
man he got real loose after a couple min, good stuff
Extraordinaria versión!!!!
Is this the tour where he opened for MSG? If so - I saw it in CA, Concord. Had a bar full of people wondering where the Scorps lead guitar player had gone to and who was this person doing Vivaldi. Until he did this. 8-) I Uli - no matter what he's playing!
very very kool
Holy shit !
wonderfull!💕
@Itrustknow1 I do have little wing and the entire concert and Sky Academy. There will be a DVD for sale on the Uli Jon Roth Website soon
I soiled my pants.
great
He like and understand essence of JH! I think it.
Virtuoso
un des meilleurs gratteux de la planète ...
Uli necesita a klaus y klaus a uli.
Que pena, no escucharlos juntos. Creando y fluyendo su magia.
Verdade.
Uli GOD ROTH
Hey Tony Christopher from Harbor View or whatever it was called across from Jasmine Creek --- If you are watching this channel can I get in touch with you about that tape where you and Pete Rumbello jammed with Uli in your garage circa 1985 or so....
MASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It looks like Uli was having a great night.
Uli🙌👏
What's up with the jump cut in the beginning?
最後のワッチタワーでニンマリしてしまう。
👏👏👏👏👏🎸
seems so easy...,ty!
Genial❤❤❤❤
Fucking sick solo !!
Miss 💋
I was surprised to note that his guitar strings did not melt.
I like Ulis vocals on this song
What kind of axe is that?🤠🎵🎶
I would like to Uli and Frank Marino Play this together.
Uli(울리히) John(존) Roth(로스)님 😍😍😍😍
Pretty standard rendition (not a bad thing) of a great song, and well played. However, Uli is not a very good singer.
I still can't get over his non-anchored picking hand. Wild.
Uli Jon Roth is truly a guitar god.
But he should never be aloud close to a microphone.
LOL!!
if you listen to his early solo stuff, his voice is actually pretty good, you gotta think, hes an old man now...on top of an english speaking german accent.
Did he play with Bros & Bronski Beat cuzzy? ?
Tuning the guitars beforehand would've been nice.
Frank Marino’s version is the best hands down. Nice effort though
Frank marino :hors pair
Frank Marino
👍👍👍👍👍👍

Saw Sails. It was good.
man talk about a scalloped fretboard
I’ve always referred to him as German Jimi Hendrix
Some lead parts are pretty cool though.
wow anthony. great appreciation.
NOT
Different times, different age of the guitarrist. isle of wight was a historicall gig, this is a regular one.
One of his best vocals are on Drifting sun, but i agree he should get a singer lol
Like so many great guitarists (Gary Moore comes to mind, rest his soul) he should let someone else take the vocals!
Michael Stephen I think Uli is a reasonable good singer.
Michael Stephen Hm - Say the same about Jimi himself.
+Michael Stephen I'd say Gary was a pretty good singer..
Pretty good is my point - he was more than a pretty good guitarist!
+Michael Stephen Gary Moore was my cousin......
The feel of this cover and the Little Wing cover he did is a little too rushed for my liking.
