    The most amazing part is playing the chord progression while trying to sing is more than what pearl jam actually does, Eddie provides the vocals, Stone Gossard provides the guitar but combining the two as one person is a feat that most can't accomplish. Bravo, you nailed it.

      nah man, it’s just about practice. if he’s sung it and practiced it enough it’s just muscle memory. thats how people usually makes covers of both playing guitar and singing. no doubt this man has a crazy amount of talent, hands down, but in theory it’s not that hard.

      @@eadue bish please... He plays the rhythm guitar, lead guitar and vocal all at once. While keeping the rhythm going emulating the drums as well. That's not just practice, or just talent, that's massive amounts of both and it's literally top 1% of musicians ever. Most of us could practice our entire lives and wont achieve this level. So yes, it's HARD

      I mean...what you said is objectively true, but what it reads as is saying this dudes better than Eddy...because he's not ha. Also, Eddy wrote the song, can play it, and sing it. Eddy is a legend and this song is one of HIS, if not THE, hmasterpiece

    Yoni....man... I've been following you for a few years, I've been playing guitar for about 25, found your stuff, learned your arrangements of Sultans of Swing, Shine on you Carzy Diamond, Romeo and Juliet, and after many many hours pausing/rewinding your stuff it's progressed my acoustic fingerstyle way beyond what I ever thought I could do...and now you drop this?! I had to comment man, Black pretty much saved my life after a horrific breakup in 2006, this song (and the album) made me realise that all the pain wasn't unique to me, that so many others have gone through the same awful shit and felt the same way.. that connection to others literally kept me on this planet. Hearing your version, dude from your passion and soul in this I can feel how much you connect with the song and that it means something to you too. I'm rambling but just....thanks. You legend. You're known for your great technical playing but this is different, just singing your heart out with massive feeling which is what the song is all about. Awesome awesome stuff.

      Perfectly summed up man, there's a handful of songs I play/cover that I relate to in that way, not many, but some just get you. You can just see Yoni in the last minute or so just going to "that place". Whether it's listening to, or playing, music connects, it just does. Lyrics, chord change, key, melody, memories of a moment, good or bad, whatever it is I think we all have that and it's relatable.

      Yoni's cover is amazballs, but seriously what band were you listening to for those 30 years that you never heard black covered acoustically well? I mean Pearl Jam literally did it in '92 and frequently does in their live shows.

    • @yogeshgupta3940
      @yogeshgupta3940 Рік тому +2

      @@ClayGravil Hi Clay. Thanks for responding. Your question is genuine and pertinent; and I have to come clean and honest in my response. But I can't cut is short. Here we go -
      I am from India. Dish TV services began in my city in early 90s. An extreme minority (not even 1%) of population in my state... my country was into western music (rock, country, alternative, grunge, metal... etc). The albums on music shops were not available as they would have been in US or other developed countries. Most of my exposure happened through MTV of those days... and it was pure then. Fortunately I had two friends who had big collection of rock music then. The kind of Bands I listened to were like these - Dream Theatre, Pink Floyed, Deff Leppard, Metallica, Aerosmith, Nirvana, Blind Melon, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Radiohead, Saigon Kick, Extreme, Guns n' Roses, Satriani, Hendrix, Steve Vai.... etc. I had random limited exposure to western classical too like Vivaldi, Beethovan, Mozart... etc.
      I did watch many unplugged episodes of many bands and was aware that they could cover beautifully their own songs with acoustic guitars. I myself was an amateur guitarist and a rock band member. But before we could bring our skills to a considerable level, the band broke and its members left to live in different cities and states of India for studies and carrier. There was no internet in India; and even if it was... it was not available to general public as it is these days. I am talking about the days when even CDs were uncommon in India. All the music I had was in cassettes.
      Since past 5 to 7 years, I revisited those years... that music scenario on UA-cam, and eventually came across stupendous covers. I never thought that Meddle by pink floyd can be covered on accoustic. But someone did it. I never thought that 'Hole in my Soul' by Aerosmith could be covered on acoustic. Someone did it, fantastically. Coming across acoustic cover of Black is just another incidence of this kind in my story... with music. A huge huge part of this disbelief that a song (be it any song) can be covered acoustically comes from my own inadequacy as a guitarist. A small part from lack of exposure.
      I hope this provides the answer to your question and quenches your curiosity.

    I guess there may be some people that would give this a thumbs down and have legitimate reasons for doing so, but i think if you are listening for perfection or imitation you miss the point....
    This is Yoni's interpretation of this classic!
    One of the things i always love about Yoni's covers is the respect for the original melody....
    Even though he adds his own spin on everything, he tries to keep the tempo and melody similar to the original....
    I also appreciate the artists that tweak tempo and melody but can they keep the song recognizable for fans of the original artist?
    Yoni is clearly one of the best acoustic guitar cover artists on youtube!!

    Another amazing cover. This is a deep cut. Pearl jam is an alot less on the radar band compared to the majority of musicians you have covered. Ten is genre defining, paradigm shift, in music. Your guitar playing wonderful as always, and the vocal is excellent, the longer loud notes are awesome, and you resisted falling into the trap of sounding like vedder, which is really hard to avoid, and most covers do it by default. I love your music man!!

    Wow, Yoni! PJ is my most favorite grunge band. You brought the house down with this one. I think you have the same register as Vedder in your low notes. Literally had my eyes closed and could hear his voice.

    Hey, oh
    Sheets of empty canvas
    Untouched sheets of clay
    Were laid spread out before me
    As her body once did
    All five horizons
    Revolved around her soul
    As the earth to the sun
    Now the air I tasted and breathed
    Has taken a turn
    Oh and all I taught her was everything
    Oh I know she gave me all that she wore
    And now my bitter hands
    Chafe beneath the clouds
    Of what was everything
    Oh the pictures have
    All been washed in black
    Tattooed everything
    I take a walk outside
    I'm surrounded by
    Some kids at play
    I can feel their laughter
    So why do I sear
    Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin
    Round my head
    I'm spinning
    Oh, I'm spinning
    How quick the sun can, drop away
    And now my bitter hands
    Cradle broken glass
    Of what was everything
    All the pictures have
    All been washed in black
    Tattooed everything
    All the love gone bad
    Turned my world to black
    Tattooed all I see
    All that I am
    All that I'll be, yeah
    Uh huh, uh huh, oh
    I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
    I know you'll be a star
    In somebody else's sky
    But why
    Why
    Why can't it be
    Oh can't it be mine

    I met a guy online while playing PUBG and one day he was telling us about this song in the team. And I kinda had a crush on him (although we barely spoke) so after the game I found this song and my crush on him only got bigger. I haven't spoken or played with him for over a year now. Whenever I listen to this song, it reminds me of him. I am always grateful to people who introduce me to amazing songs.

    This might sound crazy but Joni’s use of the C/G chord (and a few other things) on an acoustic guitar has forever changed the instrument for me. Brilliant player
