I think it was better that the drummer did keep the beat up like Nuno encouraged him to after he initially backed off. It kept everyone driving and prevented the possibility of some of the improvs from dragging.
Nuno gave it away after a brief misunderstanding too, they all got nothing to prove, but this truly seemed like one of the times for Richie to shine! Love the energy
Joe's got so much love for the instrument that he's removed his ego and is always willing to share the stage with guitarist that most players would be too intimidated to play with ! Richie Kotzen was cook'n ! 🎸🔥
I hate the idea of Cruises; trapped on a floating city with a bunch of people I may not like. However I make the exception here; trapped on a floating city with a bunch of fans of real music, and some of the best musicians on the planet. I want the Extended Stay package...
Man you're missing out, it's not too late. Check his first 3 albums if you like instrumental guitar music, he was a shredder like becker/vai but evolve into blues, jazz fusion, rnb, soul and pop throughout his career. Check his work with Greg Howe, Poison, Mr. Big and The Winery Dogs and his solo band. He also sings like Chris Cornell!
Nuno cracks me up man! Such a cool dude! A laughed so hard at his reaction to Joe's sustained note with the bar! This was awesome all three killed it!!!
But seriously, Does Nuno have a health issue? His playing is still at the top for me, but he looks like he toured with Reanna for the last four or five years.I'm sorry he looks like hell
Imo Ritchie is always learning /practicing even though he is already masterful. He probably been listening soaking up country guitarists while on breaks from touring grabbing bits of their eccese. Some stay stagnant/content in their success. He pushes..
Richie shreds but he is actually very blues/soul based. I've been listening to him since 1989 and he never ceases to amaze me, he is always creating while jamming.
Richie talked about taking lessons from a young flamenco guitarist who is friends with Mateus Asato a few years ago. He's more than a cliched 80s shredder.
Just look at the guitars and you kind of know what the tone and style is going to be. I thought Richie was so pronounced. Just a maturity to his playing over this style. Love them all.
that was cool af Richie made Joe bring some funky nastiness but I think Richie wanted that to keep going for awhile - it was starting to get interesting
Richie was the most 'stylistically diverse' and had such full and wide ranging tone in comparison to Joe and Nuno who sounded so scooped. All in all though, definitely a good jam.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I just love this brought me back in the day this is even better than before HELL YES . Don’t want to stop playing this. You got me wanting to dance. So BAD ASS SHREDDING they should call you SHREDDER ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤love you
The three of them were really creative and mindblowing. Kotzen is really precise, Satriani has fun and his mastered effects, Nuno is in between. But I really love them all.
All great players! Joe makes it look easy. I first heard Surfing with the Alien way back in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-eight 1988 and I was blown away! I loved it and I still love it, Way back then, Joe was already a great player.
Love Ritchie. My first guitar build was essentially a Kotzen signature Tele. Humbucker double rail in bridge position, and a Twang King in neck position. Very versatile guitar. I can't play it worth shit, but someday...
More than 20 years ago I was learning from Ritchie Kotzen’s REH videos and learnt cool licks 😎 He is the absolute win for me! And legend of Satch is known & loved by all. Cheers from India ❤
How can you not love this? Three great guitarists doing their respective thing, pulling the cat out of the bag and rabbits out of the hat. Each in their own element respecting the jam and persons style. Nobody’s walking over one another. The rhythm section holding it down tight. Joe is a straight up foundation of great blues to rock phrasing, but, Mr Kotzen has really elevated his styling in identity and phrasing to a new favored height for me. There’s really nothing I dislike of his true showmanship to his style. He is a genuinely unique voice of immense taste, flair and chops since he went Ala Beck with using his fingers and no pick. (Not that he was a slouch before)
OMG just absolutely BAD ASS my goodness you guys make me want to dance. HELLO YES shred that guitar I LOVE THIS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤love ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Richie's playing is on another level, he was a shrapnel shredder in the 80s and has fusion album with Greg howe amazing blues player, and amazing singer, I love Satriani's songs though.
Great video. Great players. All of them. Including the drums and bass. Still like Creams version. It’s the standard. Clapton plays a great solo. Of course Jack and Ginger. That’s why everyone plays it.
I don’t know who is singing amazingly AND playing keyboards but everyone should. He is killing it man! Holding his with big names on stage. Came for the guitars, and stayed for the vocalist.
No way, so that's the Thirsty Merc guy, didn't realise that, fair play to him! He's a brilliant musician, seen him a few times in tiny dive bars in Australia killing it on the keyboard and vocals!
Now we need Guthrie Govan to join on stage. He's probably one of the best ever to play. But I personally think Roy Clark is best at improvisation and showmanship, and raw talent.
One of my most memorable concert moments was having the lights go down, the band take the stage, and a pot light shines down on Satch in mirrored shade playing a mirrored guitar starts playing Flying in a Blue Dream. Beams of light and sound were streaming off that man like he was the musical sun at the center of our universe that night. THAT is how you open a show.
Poison to Mr. Big to the Winery Dogs to a collaboration with Adrian Smith, with several solo efforts along the way. Ritchie Kotzen is one of the most underappreciated masters in the world. In terms of well roundedness, only Prince comes to mind as being more accomplished in more areas (singing, playing multiple instruments, recording, producing, mixing, performing).
The drummer and bassist are working hard to hold it down so the guitarists can shine Got to remember that!
Absolutely I agree I noticed that too
I think it was better that the drummer did keep the beat up like Nuno encouraged him to after he initially backed off. It kept everyone driving and prevented the possibility of some of the improvs from dragging.
So true man 🤘💪
I think that's Aronoff & Beller respectively!
@@rhondadinkin9473 You are correct! Both monster players!
Ritchie Kotzen is simply on another level.
Yep, a level beneath the master, Satch. :-)
My thoughts exactly
@@sbonamo He eats Joe alive.
@@edbernardmusic3599 whatever you say...
@@sbonamo That's right.
Ritchie Kotzen killed everyone with that Tele tone 🔥🔥🔥
Less gain always cuts better and his hybrid picking!
@@therichbuddha3277 No pick, just fingers
with plexi amp is the best amp
Thin
@@AndrewSkinburn Different than his earlier shredding, but still killer.
Richie Kotzen's tone is so distinctive, and he's got a very personal phrasing style too. I've been a fan since the '90s!
Kotzen has a brilliant sound for me - mostly in the fingers and that percussive thumb!
The great thing that I feel is, especially Satch, is how there's no ego involved. Just a whole bunch of incredible music. Magical.
Nuno gave it away after a brief misunderstanding too, they all got nothing to prove, but this truly seemed like one of the times for Richie to shine! Love the energy
Very polar opposite of vai eh? I met both of them several times and vai is in his own world. I love the dude still
No egos there. They could kill each other on their night. Just laughs fun and entertainment for each other.
Joe hanging on that one harmonic squeal was epic and hilarious at the same time. These 3 were amazing
No egos here just friends jamming and having a great time! Wish i we could of all been there.😊
Do you actually know any of these jokers?
Richie was great. Really creative playing. Loved it !
Richie.
Little bit of Jeff Beck in there, seems like.
Richie Kotzen > WOW. Saw him live 3 years ago. I was blown away by his very "unique" technic and his musicality.
I saw The Winery Dogs last year and the whole show was fire.
People he’s absolutely brilliant 👍🏻🙏🏻
Just country guitar
Also fantastic soulful vocals, check his record with Adrian smith.
@@EBJorge-ql1iiHi there, applying country guitar technic to another style makes him a bit "unique" in my eyes. But I get your point. Best.
Deym, I thought Joe Satriani would school the two, But it's actually Richie who OWNED the stage. That Tele slayed them.🤭🤘
Nuno responding to Satch's sustain is epic! 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️
yesssssssssssssssssss hahahahaahahah
Haill yeahhh
Yeah haha
I felt a bad vibe between Nuno and Richie...it seems like they are upset with each other :(
How does he do that btw
Joe's got so much love for the instrument that he's removed his ego and is always willing to share the stage with guitarist that most players would be too intimidated to play with ! Richie Kotzen was cook'n ! 🎸🔥
Kenny Aronoff just kills the kit! Amazing time and feel.
Kenny's everywhere lol...love his work .
Wish I liked him more. Just a bland player in my opinion.
I hate the idea of Cruises; trapped on a floating city with a bunch of people I may not like. However I make the exception here; trapped on a floating city with a bunch of fans of real music, and some of the best musicians on the planet. I want the Extended Stay package...
Dunno Ritchie, but, he destroyed them! Love Crossroads!
Man you're missing out, it's not too late. Check his first 3 albums if you like instrumental guitar music, he was a shredder like becker/vai but evolve into blues, jazz fusion, rnb, soul and pop throughout his career. Check his work with Greg Howe, Poison, Mr. Big and The Winery Dogs and his solo band. He also sings like Chris Cornell!
Nuno cracks me up man! Such a cool dude! A laughed so hard at his reaction to Joe's sustained note with the bar! This was awesome all three killed it!!!
I was just gonna mention that😅😅😅
yeah and then Richi laughing at that was great reaction of both dudes ... 😀
Joe Cheated... he runs a Sustainac 🤣
Nuno was my all time favorite until I caught Richie's Japan concert video right before the Winery Dogs in Japan.
But seriously, Does Nuno have a health issue? His playing is still at the top for me, but he looks like he toured with Reanna for the last four or five years.I'm sorry he looks like hell
Richie Kotzen is using his hand to pick. Just like Jeff Beck, keep getting better and better!
Richie absolutely ripped it. sheeeesh.
Imo Ritchie is always learning /practicing even though he is already masterful. He probably been listening soaking up country guitarists while on breaks from touring grabbing bits of their eccese. Some stay stagnant/content in their success. He pushes..
Just had this exact thought. Crazy country fusion licks. It's clear he hasn't settled and works to continue improving his art
Richie shreds but he is actually very blues/soul based. I've been listening to him since 1989 and he never ceases to amaze me, he is always creating while jamming.
Richie talked about taking lessons from a young flamenco guitarist who is friends with Mateus Asato a few years ago. He's more than a cliched 80s shredder.
richie has awesome phrasing!
Wow. The absolute musicality and invention of Richie was something to behold. He's looking great and sounding fantastic! Yay, Richie!
Richie for win...most creative riffs for sure!
No es competencia!
J'avoue avoir bien aimé le jeu de Richie également.
There is no race bruh, enjoy the show.
No
No
I think a Satch/Richie album would be really interesting.
that would be pretty cool, kinda like the albums 'Tilt' and 'Project' with Kotzen and Greg Howe.
Wouldn’t work!
@@realscience948🥴
Kotzen's playing here is just on another level, wow.
Nuno's N-4 has aged more than Nuno.
A lotta talent on that stage and nothing but MARSHALLS
Kotzen really impressed here, Wow!
Kenny A is a monster and kept the train a' rollin' with his customary chops. Excellent!
Ritchie Kotzen is also an incredible vocalist. Wish they would have let him sing this one too.
shout out to aussie Rai Thistlethwayte on the keyboards and vocals ,so great to see him with these legends !
Richie, for the win. Best tone and phrasing.
Ritchie Kotzen’s first album blew my mind!
Yeah man Ritchie's got it awesome playing!
3 masters, 3 differents styles, 8 min of great music and feeling
Just look at the guitars and you kind of know what the tone and style is going to be. I thought Richie was so pronounced. Just a maturity to his playing over this style. Love them all.
Richie rules!!! But i like everyone!!!
Nuno🤟🏻Awsome
Three Monsters !!!
Surfing utube I bumped into these great musicians......brilliant!!!!!!!👍👍👍
Ritchie works hard at not having predictable licks,a guy to watch,and hear other options from
MAGNIFICO, 3 ESTILOS DIFERENTES DE TOCAR LA GUITARRA, 3 TONOS DIFERENTES. LO DE KOTZEN EN UNA TELECASTER Y CON LOS DEDOS ES GENIAL!!
Ritchie’s tone is eternal. Tele played with his fingers. Brilliant!!!
that was cool af Richie made Joe bring some funky nastiness but I think Richie wanted that to keep going for awhile - it was starting to get interesting
Yeah, it sure seemed that way! I really enjoyed Richie's playing style.
Nothing But Pure Class From These 3 Great Players🎸🎸🎸
Kotzen really stood out ....All great and legendary tho
I love all these players. Kotzen takes it on this one guys. Doesn’t use a pick, might have the edge….. 🙏
I know it's a bunch of awesome guitar players but let's not forget Kenny arnoff is an incredible drummer
Richie killed the whole jam, totally awesome his playing
Richie was the most interesting to listen to.
Richie was the most 'stylistically diverse' and had such full and wide ranging tone in comparison to Joe and Nuno who sounded so scooped. All in all though, definitely a good jam.
Well stated.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I just love this brought me back in the day this is even better than before HELL YES . Don’t want to stop playing this. You got me wanting to dance. So BAD ASS SHREDDING they should call you SHREDDER ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤love you

Everyone shreds.appreciate all of these guys....
..Sammy said it best...Joe speaks in 14 languages....
oh...Richie trullytotally killed it...amazing work, sound, style, simplicity...just amazing
I just love it how Richie plays those "out-of-nowhere" kinda notes and make them sound so magical
Excellent vocals
Met Richie years back. He is a great guy and amazing musician
All great players! Joe makes it look easy. I first heard Surfing with the Alien way back in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-eight 1988 and I was blown away! I loved it and I still love it, Way back then, Joe was already a great player.
I need more concerts like this!!! I love the ibanez sound, but that telecaster tone is so intoxicant!!!
Ritchie Kotzen is an amazing guitarist.
Love Ritchie. My first guitar build was essentially a Kotzen signature Tele. Humbucker double rail in bridge position, and a Twang King in neck position. Very versatile guitar. I can't play it worth shit, but someday...
More than 20 years ago I was learning from Ritchie Kotzen’s REH videos and learnt cool licks 😎

Legendary REH chops. We all started there

What am I seeing!? OMG! Never thought I see these 3 jamming.
Thanks for sharing ☮️
Amazing!

Hats off to the sound man as well, great job !!!
How you can see that is the creme de la creme?
It is not a competition - it is a have fun together…brilliant

Richie!!!!!!!! 💪 ❤️
Nuno Bettencourt is right about Joe Satriani he’s a master! I saw him in London in 1992 and he was phenomenal back then on the Extremist tour!
Joe is one of my favourite guitarists ever, but Richie blew them off the stage. this made him climb my list up a few places. hats off...
Great video. Great players. All of them. Including the drums and bass.
Still like Creams version. It’s the standard. Clapton plays a great solo. Of course Jack and Ginger.
That’s why everyone plays it.
Holy crap...how could you not love this?!!!
Awesome. Three of the greatest rock guitar players on planet and they dive into a blues jam!
I don’t know who is singing amazingly AND playing keyboards but everyone should. He is killing it man! Holding his with big names on stage. Came for the guitars, and stayed for the vocalist.
Rai Thistlewaite , he’s an Australian.
No way, so that's the Thirsty Merc guy, didn't realise that, fair play to him! He's a brilliant musician, seen him a few times in tiny dive bars in Australia killing it on the keyboard and vocals!
Check him out playing with Knower 'Overtime'
@@NeilJ894 Yep that’s him. I was never a Thirsty Merc fan but he’s clearly a talented guy.
And Bryan Beller on the bass? What a lineup
3 best guitarists..Nuno,Joe & Richie
🖕 🤣🤣🤣 made my day, thanks for sharing this..
If someone goes like 🖕... I go like this 👌..... 😂😂
Glad you enjoyed it
Kocham tych gitarzystów ❤️
Jeezhus - Sun Ray and Brian Beller just layin' down the back, what a stage full of BEASTS!
And is that the 'Man' Kenny Aronoff on the drums?
That JMP sounds killer. Cuts like a knife
Now we need Guthrie Govan to join on stage. He's probably one of the best ever to play. But I personally think Roy Clark is best at improvisation and showmanship, and raw talent.
So nice to hear a shout out for Roy
That is right Joe is simply amazing❤
Oh god, that sound and style of Ritchie…
Lot of respect for these musicians. If i had a small fraction of their ability I’d consider myself blessed.
Great Mike, incredible High fi sound
Thanks! Glad you liked it.
One of my most memorable concert moments was having the lights go down, the band take the stage, and a pot light shines down on Satch in mirrored shade playing a mirrored guitar starts playing Flying in a Blue Dream. Beams of light and sound were streaming off that man like he was the musical sun at the center of our universe that night. THAT is how you open a show.
What a treat to see and hear this musical vocabulary together on stage. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
they still live long, we are still grateful to be able to watch them
Ritchie schooling those guys absolutely blew my mind. Poison to this?! Wow!
Poison was an EASY gig for him!!!
You realize he had released a few solo albums prior to Poison, right? He had an instructional video as well
He was AMAZING in Poisson
Poison to Mr. Big to the Winery Dogs to a collaboration with Adrian Smith, with several solo efforts along the way. Ritchie Kotzen is one of the most underappreciated masters in the world. In terms of well roundedness, only Prince comes to mind as being more accomplished in more areas (singing, playing multiple instruments, recording, producing, mixing, performing).
Mr Kotzen: no sweep-picking?!😢 All of you rocked! Thank you …
🎸👨🏼⚕️🫶✌️♾️
Exactly like Robert Johnson uset to play it...❤
THAT was amazing!🎉
Kotzens my man but all 3 sounded great and arnoff rocked along with the band
I didn't want it to end!
Kotzen didn’t take the easy way out lol awsome
Kotzen , that Tele!!
That’s G.G.’s bassist, Bryan Beller.
you mean he plays with GG in the Aristocrats 😉 also..bassist for
Dethklok, Mike Keneally, Steve Vai, James LaBrie of Dream Theater and Dweezil Zappa
