      John Sutton. Your reply is one of the lamest replies I have ever read in my entire life. To claim Kanye West is a genius is an insult to all real musicians. However, if you want to significantly lower the bar, which is obviously the only way to validate your argument, then you might be right .... I guess he's a pure genius at what he does lol I can't even get myself to type Kanye West is a genius without laughing. You're just regurgitating what the media and public say about Kanye West.
      Oh and I listen to all music. House music is among my favourite to listen to so your argument about being boxed in rock/metal is invalid. To think that you actually made any sense in your argument is for similar laymen who agree with you and just regurgitate what they hear. People are sheep and so are you ... congratulations.

For example SRV can play really tasty blues but there are also times it sounds boring. Steve Vai can also play really tasty but sometimes goes over the top with his shred. I find classical pretty boring sometimes but there are also classical players that really stand out.

      Xavier Xerxes yes he’s really killing it but that arpeggio should be broken into two shapes with a P slide up to the A to descend, it adds just a little more difficulty and authenticity to the phrase and is the way JB played it, check out the Jeff Loomis version and you will see what I mean, I’ve got 35 years under my belt, shredder for life, I transcribed 3 tracks from Perpetual Burn in ‘94 for some of my students so I’m not cutting him down he’s really good and I’m sure he has the chops to make the correction if he so desires

    There are some people on this video bad mouthing Tina S all because they think that Gus' version was the best that they've heard. Just stop with the bad mouthing! They both did such an amazing job and deserve credit. If you like Gus' version the best, that's fine, but there's not any reason to disrespect Tina like that. Gus did an excellent job, but they should give praise and support to Tina too. Sure there were a tiny bit of mistakes, but that doesn't make anyone a bad player at all. Even if she's made small mistakes before, she still always does an amazing job at her playing. You can't play perfectly in every performance because we're human. She play with plenty of feeling or at most a lot and if some people don't think so, at least she did her very best and played with as much musical feeling as she can. Recently, she's developing her playing abilities and getting even better. I'll always be proud of Tina and Gus and probably all of the commenters in the video should too.

    I've watched damn near every cover of altitudes on UA-cam and not one person seems to be able to nail that special vibrato that comes with Jason Beckers glorious playing, you my good sir are the closest I've seen to achieving that. I commend your talent dude, keep shredding.

    The ultimate reason why many agreed this is by far the best cover of this song simply because "it successfully illustrate and define the emotion of this song which is absent to some covers" the bends, timing etc are perfect.

    The key word here is dynamics. Dynamics determine the intention of each note and you sir, fucking nailed it. You played that song the way Jason meant it to be played, with balls in each bend, fucking gravy spilling out of every vibrato and goddamn character in each arpeggio. Bravo!
