Not only is Marty incredible but this is some of the best drumming ever by Deen Castronovo!
Incredible drumming! Fits the song perfectly, nothing sounds out of place or like it's too much. Masterful
Agree 🤘
Yes, it's not only Marty, it's a duet. This album in an absolute masterpiece and not from this world.
I fully endorse the suggestions to check out some Jason Becker, Marty's musical soul mate. Altitudes, Eleven Blue Egyptians, Concerto, Speed Metal Symphony all magnificent. He was an absolute prodigy of a guitar player, one of the best in the world by time he was 15 years old, tragically cut down well before his prime by ALS. His work still stands as a shining beacon of the very highest level of guitar mastery, and he is still somehow composing new music despite the loss of all motor function. An utterly amazing bloke who definitely deserves more recognition among music aficionados.
Definitely have to check out Valley of Eternity by Marty.
you prolly dont care but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times you can watch all of the new movies on instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my gf for the last days =)
@Memphis Graham Yup, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since november myself =)
Always been in love with thus album. Visited my mate and his 70yr old dad had this in full blast as he was resting in his conservatory, Big moment for me. Dessert uslan, cacophony is also epic with the great Jason becker
Amazing Marty...👌👍🤘💥💋
6:41 That part just hits you out of nowhere
Best part of the song imo
This has been my favourite song for the past 20 years.
Really good!!!!!!!!!! That guitarist is something else!
8:14 Is so damn beautiful
jason becker-altitudes!:) or cacophony-concerto to hear them play together.
I love Dragon's Kiss and Perpetual Burn but I cant get into Cacophony. I think the vocals just ruin it.
@@sobo2001 check the "Go off" and "Images" songs
Well now you have to check out "Altitudes" by Jason Becker. He and Marty were among the original artists on the 80's guitar shred label Shrapnel Records. They were first in the band Cacophony together (on Shrapnel records) before doing there respective solo albums. Jason was 16 when he was signed. Sadly, he was diagnosed with ALS in 1990, but has become an incredible story. He is completely immobile but is still composing music.
Shrapnel records was the shit in the 80's.
Hell yeah! I learned so much about music through Mike Varney lol! Some of the people I still consider among my favorite guitarists came from that label- Richie Kotzen, Greg Howe and Paul Gilbert among others. It opened a whole new world to me.
My faves on Shrapnel were Tony MacAlpine, Greg Howe and Vinnie Moore. I still wish I could play as amazing as those guys did then.
Expected more from you at 6:41. Love that change. So heavy.
Thanks for this one, Jim! I had forgotten how much I love Marty's solo work.
Wow! I have to say I like almost every song you react to👍
“Wow”, that’s the same word that came to my mind when I heard it for the first time. Since then I’m a big fan of him.
If that melted your brain, try Speed Metal Symphony by Cacophony (Marty Friedman and Jason Becker). 30 years later, and I still hear new things in it.
And, definitely listen with good stereo headphones, because there are several guitar parts in harmony and counterpoint throughout it, and it's interesting to hear one part in one ear, and another in the other.
Brilliant choice! I had it on the 'Guitar Masters' LP
Cacophony - Concerto
Nice Milton reference! :) Thanks for doing this reaction - Marty Friedman is one of my all time favorite guitarists.
Marty playin with a sense gigANT1!!!!
3:42 "my face is melting off" 😂 I was laughing at this especially because i knew what was exactly about to follow.😂😂. #literallheadexplosion 😂
Wow, didn't expect that! I don't listen to much "guitar god" stuff anymore, but that was very good. During the 80s my tastes really started to expand ( like you Jim, I even got bored with Maiden). I always had eclectic musical tastes ( everything from Tangerine Dream, to U2, Vangelis to Queensryche, punk to metal, mowtown to new wave, Windham Hill to alternative college radio....etc).I don't believe in guilty pleasure. If you like it, you like it. Yesterday I listened to Tears For Fears Songs From The Big Chair, and later Gojira ( Magma is an EPIC album if you go that heavy)while at the gym.
I've checked out several reaction channels in a search for new music. I enjoy Lost In Vegas for the entertainment , Ruben Buijs for his willingness, and check in occasionally to some others that are good or fun. Your channel has quickly become my favorite, because of the variety, and scope of your selections. I'm finding NEW stuff, and for that I thank you! And so far, we seem to share very similar taste in music in general (the Ozrics!!!!)
Look forward to the next video.
Have a great day
Thanks so much for your comments and your recommendations too. This channel would be nothing without the suggestions from everyone, and I only bring a very limited selection to the party! But it feels kinda cool, a bit like the old school pirate radio stations that used to find and play the music that no-one else would! Yup, there's no such thing as a guilty pleasure, if you like it you like it! Cheers matey, hope to catch you soon!
Loving your "variety" of music. This is something I DON'T see on most/or the more popular Reaction videos. I knew about Marty Friedman "years" before he was asked to join Megadeth when most people had no idea who he was. I actually heard him for the 1st time from his band "Hawaii". I always thought this album sounded like a "Anime Soundtrack", and for awhile I was developing a Robotic/Mecha space-opera story to be animated, and I wanted to ask Marty if I could use his album (and tracks from Jason Becker's album "Perpetual Burn" that came out simultaneously). It never came to be but, it figures he was an "Anime" fan, but also of J-Pop and speaks Japanese fluently.
I still listen to this album on a regular basis, as well as Jason's album, and the 2 play on the ASTOUNDING album (most with vocals) "Cacophony - Speed Metal Symphony" (1987) which is almost as complex as Watchtower - "Control and Resistance" (1989).
I HIGHLY recommend all 3 of those albums mentioned above :).
you must check valley of eternity from marty
Takes me back to when I first listened to the guitar masters album and this was one of my favourites on the album
Forbidden City is just a masterpiece! And always will be.
It is a journey, from the longing for a dreamed past, to the fall of ideals and the end of a civilization... that refuses to fall, to rise from among the ashes again thanks to the innocence of those who still believe in love. This song is a perfect stunner and I thank Marty for creating this piece of art. Thanks for the video.
react to Marty Friedman - devil take tomorrow, please, is a fascinating song
Brilliant is exactly right... This blew my mind first time I heard it
This single song always proved to me just how perfect a fit he was in Megadeth _\m/ So many tempo changes and styles in one epic metallic masterpiece.
Those of the axe wielding warrior spirit may continue to the Temple of the Absurd. Time may be needed to convalesce from the Forbidden City's assault upon your Sonic Soldier's embattled wits.

06:07 sounds so megadeth! love it
6:40 🙌🏼
Classic!
You get a subscription for this!🤘
My word! And such an old video too! Thanks 🤩
@@JimNewstead this song never fades
I grinned all the way to 2:42 - this is what I had to make do with until Hevy Devy - the standing behind jet engine (or millennium falcon) genre :)
Metallica wishes that Whiplash sounded this good.
you should try " perfect world", marty friedman as well
all the songs on this album are amazing . my prefered is dragon mistress.
This is the appropriate reaction.
definitely jason becker next. he played with marty before jason got ALS
"Jack Luminous" by Voivod
I HIGHLY recommend more Marty Friedman: Asu E No Sanka, Undertow, and Amagi Goe. Asu E No Sanka is one of the most beautiful guitar songs you may ever hear.
My favourite:
4:14 aggressive riff
5:17 uplifting harmony
5:46 grim riff
Flotsam and Jetsam - Iron Maiden!
Request: Missionary of Mercy by Pariah (1989) from the album Blaze of Obscurity (which is ironic in hind sight) This is inspired by things I was doing while waiting for Strapping Young Lad to exist. Search for the full album - this album is a hidden gem that you can do start to finish with the exception of track six which feels a bit lame (but still good).
You could do track two too - Puppet Regime solos are off the chain.
CACOPHONY-CONCERTO
OR ANY SONG BY JASON BECKER AGHHHH
Got to this video because i'm a big Marty Friedman fan.
Dude you look like Tim Curry
Is that a bad thing??
@@JimNewstead Not at all. Tim Curry is a fantastic actor.
Marty Friedman must listen list:
-Undertow
-Miracle
-Whiteworm
-For a Friend
-Be
-Any track from Scenes album
Enjoy, and you're welcome good sir.
Speaking of solo guitarists; you should check Adagio lead guitar player Stéphan Forté and his 2011 album The Shadows Compendium. Neo-classical progressive metal a la carte.
How is your life inside the matrix?
Fabulous thanks - everything is rosy and wonderful.... oh, actually no, it's a pile of stinking shite a lot of the time so a pretty poorly constructed matrix I guess.
@@JimNewstead best answer ever!
