i understand ive been playing guitar 20 years he just need more volume on his acoustic in my oponion this can be resolved by putting the mic closer to the sound hole or get 2 mics
Among everything this guy is good at, I think what really sets him apart is his ability to stay right on time during those ripping solos. Many people can't even stay on time with a whole band but he's just by himself. Killer cover as always!
@@garryprendergast6183 Because the same issue we face alone as musicians with tempo is only exacerbated with multiple musicians; each person has to keep tempo with one another, and any variance can sway the flow of the entire song. Watch a live video from like Dave Matthews Band or another good stage presence, and see if the tempo keeps the same bpm throughout or if they pick up or slow down over time.
What’s remarkable here is moving seamlessly from rhythmic parts to open soloing, while dropping in carefully placed muted strums and rhythmic motifs as place markers to help listeners keep track of the beat. I’m not a big fan of the ubiquitous click tracks to which most modern digital recordings are snapped. The tools available for digital music production today are amazing- GarageBand which comes loaded free on your IPhone has capabilities that George Martin and the Beatles could not even have dreamed of when they pioneered music creation in a multi track studio setting, but those click tracks can and often do give music a soulless and mechanical feel. This guy’s performances have what the creators from the pre-digital era that he mines for material also had- a flexible but strong and solid inner sense of time which informs every sound he makes.
For anyone new: Corey is one of the best acoustic guitarists I’ve ever seen. For years he has absolutely shocked me. He is up there with the likes of the best without a doubt, whether it be Tommy Emmanuel or Chet Atkins. He is a phenom and a major talent, and deserves far more recognition than he has.
I left my jaw on the ground. That was seriously sick. I thought after seeing Satriani, Vai, SRV and other major guitarists I couldn't be impressed anymore. I was wrong. Unreal guitar and vocal skills. This guy deserves a big stage.
I have a bad habit of searching out covers to songs I love. Of all the covers of this song I have heard, they are all just making noise by comparison. You killed it man👍
Incredible talent on display here. It takes an enormous amount of discipline, practice and dedication to get to this level of proficiency. Just awesome.
This is just incredible. The guitar riffs alone are outstanding, but then you somehow figured out how to sing in stride (and extremely well). If I had a full lifetime to practice guitar, this would be my goal. Bravo, Corey.
Love it man love the energy this guy puts into the music that he plays on that guitar that gets you pumped up ready to jam thanks man Big Time see you in the circle my friend thanks again
I love how your first video was already mind blowing. Then you re do it 11 years later and totally Blow your own self outa the water with another performance. Please never stop making music
From a Aussie from Australia 🇦🇺 Corey…You’re frickin Awesome Corey and what I love about you is how Humble you are and don’t realise how Fantastic you are
So so good. What a pleasure to watch that perfect acoustic playing and groove. Those fast chord changes are smooth as butter. An animal on guitar, somewhat reminds me of John Mayer.
Wow what a Saturday Morning find! Sitting at my table cruising through youtube covers and SLAM! Nice job. PS came in on Snow and kept hitting the next button,
Incredible and unbelievable as always. Whenever I feel lazy and not in the mood to play guitar I check your videos to get inspired. You're playing a huge role in helping me to practice daily. Thank you dude 🤘🤘🤘
It’s blowing my mind and filling me with hope because if this man’s talent he truly is a master blaster hahaha of the scale with talent best cover out there he’s a star 👍🏻🤘😵💫❤️😎
Amazing, it's people like yourself who make me pick up my guitar everyday. I would more than happy to have a quarter of your talent. Outstanding Corey, You have a great future ahead of you 👏👏👏
Superb. Bringing out the jazz in Stevie. Singing's brilliant too. You make it your own while remaining absolutely faithful to the spirit of the original. The soul.
In general I hate it when people just show off for the hell of it... and I LOVE it when people just can´t help themselves by demonstrating their true talent, just like Corey is doing here. so freaking cool!!
Awesome! Such an iconic sounding James Bond tune, like it was always part of the soundtrack to the series. So well written and you played it perfectly!
My latest album STARBIRD is now available! Listen here: ua-cam.com/video/zegRt3yt1As/v-deo.html
New subscriber for sure. Well done.
I find it on the apple music.Awesome playing and nice voice.👍🤘
funky as fwwk pal x _x
People don’t really understand how Talented this guy is , This is extremely difficult to play and extremely creative
Awesome vocals too.
i understand ive been playing guitar 20 years he just need more volume on his acoustic in my oponion this can be resolved by putting the mic closer to the sound hole or get 2 mics
Holy fuck!!!!!
Guitarists understand..😎
Yeah it's not easy to play. It's a complete feel song. Gotta have great rhythm to play it. This isn't how SRV plays it though, not at all.
Best guitar player I’ve ever seen
Likewise Brother Man
If anyone deserves to be famous it’s this guy. Not hard to tell he put the work in
@@nobutur disagree fully, not only that but he has his own music.
@@nobutur somebody never heard of MFGG
Wow.. i’m speechless.
that solo was UNREAL
you are one of the best guitarists I've ever seen. I cant get enough of all of your covers dude. Absolutely stunning work dude.
You’re so right
THIS RHYTHM MAN...
Agreed. Top go to UA-cam.
So true
I agree...; have never seen such talent in guitar an Corey also sing too much...! thanks from Brazil...👏👏🌹
OMG man you are a monster 😃 I'm so glad i found you on youtube.
Same here mate.
Same same
Same here Heah !! a monster or maybe an alien !!! 😃
Mee too. Its fucking cool Styl.
Fabio you are no small fry yourself. You both are monsters! Im subbed to both haha

It's easier to stay on time playing by yourself but you are right.
@@Aseyona don't see your shit on here, so how you know it's easier to keep time. ???????
@@Aseyona Spot on sir as ANY experienced musician will confirm. 🙋♂️ keep spreading the love.

I truly mean this.... this is my favorite version of this song.. ever. Above both Stevies and everyone else. Omgooossshhhh

How does this not have 5000000 views with 2.5 million subscribers? This world has no taste!
He improved an already perfect song. Astonishing...
I cant stop playing this on repeat 😭😭😭 hits right in the feelies.
So hard to strum, play lead and keep rhythm singing at the same time. Proper, well done 👏
Not hard for Corey! His just has that Natural Gift!
Your'e easily one of the most talented human beings of all time.
I left my jaw on the ground. That was seriously sick. I thought after seeing Satriani, Vai, SRV and other major guitarists I couldn't be impressed anymore. I was wrong. Unreal guitar and vocal skills. This guy deserves a big stage.
This is what using (FRONT, BACK, LEFT, And RIGHT) Sides of the brain AT THE SAME TIME Looks like.. WOW....
The magic starting at around 2:32...MY GOD! I listen to this about 10 times a day.
Holy Shite!!! As an acoustic guitar guy myself, this guy blows me away. Magnificent Super Talent
I have a bad habit of searching out covers to songs I love. Of all the covers of this song I have heard, they are all just making noise by comparison. You killed it man👍
Me too. Cover interpretations to me are much more interesting than originals. I am always looking and this was an amazing find.
Incredible talent on display here. It takes an enormous amount of discipline, practice and dedication to get to this level of proficiency. Just awesome.
This is just incredible. The guitar riffs alone are outstanding, but then you somehow figured out how to sing in stride (and extremely well). If I had a full lifetime to practice guitar, this would be my goal. Bravo, Corey.
Corey you're gonna blow up in a while dude, keep strumming and doing your thing!
Love from India
One of my favorite acoustic covers out there overall, just love those pentatonic plucked riffs
You’re absolutely INSANE before the vocals start, and then I just about shit my pants when you started singing… Good lord man 🤯
Definitely the best acoustic cover I heard to this song , and I heard some good ones.
What an amazing an inspiring performance ! Just wow…
Amazing
Love it man love the energy this guy puts into the music that he plays on that guitar that gets you pumped up ready to jam thanks man Big Time see you in the circle my friend thanks again
I love how your first video was already mind blowing. Then you re do it 11 years later and totally Blow your own self outa the water with another performance. Please never stop making music
Just stumbled upon this. What great musicality. Absolutely brilliant.
Wow!
Piece of art
Absolutely amazing!
Best thing I've seen. Goosebumps! And so groovy!
The best cover of Superstition I've ever heard. I don't mean just the best solo acoustic version. I mean THE BEST VERSION EVER !!!!
Phenomenal, totally agreed.... This Dude is Killer, Vocally & Instrumentally
That solo was smooth as hell
This gentleman is sincerely about it. Bravo sir 👏🏿
Best versions... ❤️ This one and the one 10 years ago 😁
From a Aussie from Australia 🇦🇺 Corey…You’re frickin Awesome Corey and what I love about you is how Humble you are and don’t realise how Fantastic you are
On a livestream too - so essentially first take?! Mind-blowing.
Came for a guitar/vocal cover, subbed for a fantastic musician and vocalist!
The real difficulty is having the discipline to study each part, and have the commitment to execute it precisely. Congrats to my bro
This is so criminally underrated!
Started smiling as soon as you started singing. You’re incredibly talented. Thanks for sharing that with us.
So so good. What a pleasure to watch that perfect acoustic playing and groove. Those fast chord changes are smooth as butter. An animal on guitar, somewhat reminds me of John Mayer.
So insanely good 🤯
Man this man channels funk….. I’ve been playing that for years but he takes it to another level.
Wow what a Saturday Morning find! Sitting at my table cruising through youtube covers and SLAM! Nice job. PS came in on Snow and kept hitting the next button,
Loved how you play this
. ThaReally well sung.really well sung.
Incredible and unbelievable as always. Whenever I feel lazy and not in the mood to play guitar I check your videos to get inspired. You're playing a huge role in helping me to practice daily.
Thank you dude 🤘🤘🤘
Wow, thanks!
I usually don't say this about one person, but did this guy come from the crossroad cuz even the wicked would get smoked by this guy he is the best
Simply so brillant.
heavenly good man .love this song
It’s blowing my mind and filling me with hope because if this man’s talent he truly is a master blaster hahaha of the scale with talent best cover out there he’s a star 👍🏻🤘😵💫❤️😎

Oh boy! I can't breathe.... What a technic and rithmic! I didn't ever seen like this before 👌👍🏆
The solo 😯....amazing
Absolutely gorgeous
Love the hand skills! Nice rendition.
Amazing, it's people like yourself who make me pick up my guitar everyday. I would more than happy to have a quarter of your talent. Outstanding Corey, You have a great future ahead of you 👏👏👏
Man that groove! Usually I am all about the intricate fingerpicking but this just rocks man.
I have to compliment the videographer for his skillful editing of Corey’s 2.5 extra hands. You can hear them but damned if you can see them.
Good one!
Superb. Bringing out the jazz in Stevie. Singing's brilliant too. You make it your own while remaining absolutely faithful to the spirit of the original. The soul.
You are just GIFTED!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!
That's so perfect.. OMG 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The playing is so so damn clean and on point. The vocal's successfully encompass Stevie Wonder's.
My God ! This is... Speachless
You are so talented. Love all of your videos. I have played guitar for the last 40 years, and I love watching you play. Love your voice also.
your a god among men wtf is that playing, bro i love you
When the first riff hit me on the brain it blow off
Magnífico !!!!!
Don't know what I like best....the guitar or that voice.
Good shi* man.
Hands down best acoustic cover of that song. Bravo!
You sir, are incredible.
In general I hate it when people just show off for the hell of it... and I LOVE it when people just can´t help themselves by demonstrating their true talent, just like Corey is doing here. so freaking cool!!
Performance mode out of this world 🇵🇦
Congratulações
Rarely will you see better singing to chord change sync as this superb playing.

Excellent cover and talent!
Awesome! Such an iconic sounding James Bond tune, like it was always part of the soundtrack to the series. So well written and you played it perfectly!
