There are many talented guitar players but every once in a while a freak of Nature comes along that is beyond talented. Stanley Jordon is one in a million.
I listen to almost every genre of music and I would say there's so many subjective factors that go into an argument like this... but overall... if you quantified "the best ever" based on hey... Stanley Jordan can clearly do TONS of things with the guitar that other's can't, yet he's done everything I've seen others do... than yes. He's the best ever.
How could I have not heard Stanley before? I`ve been playing, studying and critically listening to to music for over 50 years, and I've never heard anything like this or seen such technique. My knees are weak! At first, I thought he was using a looper, but no, it's all live and impeccably played. Wow, just wow.
Think about it, if he were playing a piano he would be using his right hand and his left hand interchangeably playing the Baseline seemingly at random totally fluid and totally insane concept!
I heard Stanley Jordan one morning on NBC morning show. I called my boss, said, “I’m going to be a little late.” I got in my car, drove straight to Tower Records on Sunset, and bought Stanley’s first album. Still one of my favorites. For such a young guy, to hold his own with the legendary Chet Atkins is nothing short of hair-raising! Superb talents! We are so blessed!

3/21/2022 How in the world did I ever not know about Stanley Jordan until today. I'm sitting here watching his hands and I suddenly realized he was "Hammering" the strings with both hands, both hands. What a wonderful sound. I can see why Chet wanted to play guitar with Stanley. I don't even qualify to sweep the floor behind them, but it inspires me to pick up a guitar and learn to play, the right way, again. I have only been brought to tears, by a guitarist, two times, the first, Doyle Dykes version of "Free Bird" and now Stanley Jordon playing "Stairway to Heaven". Only one word describes this, MAGNISIFANT. ;-)
UNREAL? U GOT RIGHT! I CALL SJ MUSIC STYLE: 'ABSTRACT IDEOSYNCRACTIC MUSIC SOUND BITES.' BUT, NO QUESTION, SJ LOOKS NUANCED WITH THE GOD OF THE GUITAR. ATKINS, WHEN PLAYS HIS TECHNIQUEN STYLE, IS UNDISPUTABLLY N IMPECCABLY GRACEFUL N ELEGANT. SURE ATKINS, INDEED, IS A WORLD CLASS GUITARISTCITIZEN❤😂😅
What I love so much is musicians who can play anything with anyone. To see Stanley and Chet together, doing it, is the ultimate. I love finding these gems on my scenic tour of YT, to see what I didn't see when I was working and living and not paying much attention to the artistic side of TV.
Stanley shows great respect. What a pleasant video to stumble on Jimi Hendrix's passing, 44 years ago. I forgot how amazing SJ is. I an grateful to be cheered up with a breath of fresh air. God bless you, SJ
Absolutely amazing and so rare: I just saw Chet smile and look interested. So much talent and he looks likes hes playing the last song at the Bowling alley gig at less than union rates.
Ha ha was thinking the same thing....my father sent me a link to a Stanley Jordan tune because he gets to go see him at the Cedar Cultural Centre (best music venue ever)...I was eating breakfast and about to go out with my guitar to practice on a rare Scottish sunny day...by the "why bother" voice has made its appearance. I won't listen to it....I shall be and become my own musician and will not compare myself to these incomparable virtuosic legends! I hope you are still playing!
Il love Chet, but that opening of Stanley Jordan is pure artistic channeling of something beyond this earthly plane . Saw Chet w Suzy Boggus at Carnegie Hall in the 90’s. Will never forget it. Thanks for your comment ☀️
My grandmother, born in the 1890’s, played guitar using all fourths tuning as Jordan does and the hammer and pull technique. Not a new thing but he is better than any I’ve heard and deserves to stand with Chet Atkins as a master of the guitar.
I've seen a lot of Stanley's solo stuff, so this begins at 24:31 for me. The way their styles mesh is incredible. I recall Kurt Rosenwinkel playing with Clapton and it was like crows trying to mesh with a choir
By the way, Chet is 67 years old when this was done. Many of his critics will be lucky if they can stand up this long let alone play like him. Still and always will be the BEST!
Two of the major virtuoso/innovators of guitar technique, together. I only wish Lenny Breau'd been alive to add his uniquely sophisticated approach with harmonics to the proceedings.
you are correct. He is two aliens inside of one human. Technically that makes him THREE people.. bass chord and melody... that HAS to be it..LOL its just crazy what he is doing. BAKA!~!
I don,t know what we'd do without the Japanese, recording and broadcasting these fine events,this talent would be lost forever.I bought Jordans first 2 Cd's. Don't know how well they sold but it couldn't have been enough to reward this young man.
First time really listening to Chet Atkins and focusing. Great talent. Enjoyed everything he played. Reminds me of Jeff Beck a bit. Stanley Clark is so enjoyable to listen to. Got to see him with Return To Forever in Boston playing progressive Jazz. Amazing no matter what he does and whom he plays with.
Se existe uma definição para a palavra Gênio seria Stanley Jordan! Incrível! Chet Atkins, um patrimônio do mundo da Guitarra, um criador, totalmente, necessário, imprescindível!
I love both of these guys. But Chet is a great role model for the guitarist. Was never afraid to challenge himself. Learned how to use just about any technique, and he inspired more people to play a certain way, and they don't even now it most of the time. What a great man. Music wouldn't be what it is without him.
Mr. Chet Atkins is truly my guitar action hero!! I love the extented way he reinvented Travis Picking' . On every availible performance, you see him smiling and enjoying doing his thing :)
Wow, it's like Jordan is playing piano on guitar(s), if you know what I mean. Incredible. Sort of leaves Beck, Clapton, and Page in the dust. I thought I knew how to play guitar. Then I watched this.
WOw, thanks for posting this, and glad I found it. I'm out there in the audience, one of my all time favorite concerts. Primarily because, well, it's Chet, and anyone who learned to play guitar in the 60s and 70s was influenced by him even if we weren't country fans . . . and Stanley Jordan ain't no hack either . I'm pretty sure though, that Chet played a beautiful rendition of his arrangement of Vincent as an encore, which sadly is missing here . . .unless that was in an alternate universe . . .
It's probably Chet you hear on the bass. Plays bass two (three) strings for rhythm alternately while playing the melody at the same time with the fingernails on his other fingers. Calls it "Fingerstyle" Guitar. He has fired many bass players, saying why are they needed, and "it saves money, folks."
Andres Segovia, Les Paul, Joe Pass, Chet Atkins, Glen Campbell, Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana, Stanley Jordan, Mark Knopfler, Jacob Collier ... all geniuses in their own right who have added to the music in a unique and remarkable way. Honor them all. 🙌🏼🙏🖖🏻
yup, I just will hang around this here campfire, where I'm sure everyone is preoccupied with whiskey and conversation. I don't think other than Michael Hedges I see guitar so magical. THose tap fingers! beautiful. and Mr. Guitar. I live to see musical evolution.
Stanley was TRULY Blessed to be able to Perform with The Great Chet Atkins. Save Hendrix Global Impact, Atkins Is Probably THE Greatest Guitar Virtuoso, Ever!!! Not only is he a SUPERIOR Guitarist But, he Excels at Bringing OUT the Best in whom he's Playing With. In English? The Most Unassuming MASTER of ANY Craft, Ever!! (Look him up) By the way, Stanley Jordan? Cool As The Other Side Of The Pillow!!!
Iam absolutely overwhelmed with surprise, never thought a person cd play guitar without a plectrum and as be asfast as all that, it's like it's not happening really the young man is talented
I always have thought of music as motivational, reflective, and SJ's music genuinely has these qualities but I feel it also touches the soul with healing qualities dissolving stress, mood, and perhaps deeper issues. Nonetheless, listening to SJ coupled with Chet and I see what a slice of heaven is all about..
I was on the Stanley Jordan bandwagon from day one, but let's not forget Chet Atkins here. He wasn't just another country picker. If you look at the great players that clamored to play with him as he got old you see the best kind of respect a musician can get.
+Carbon Crank It was said that Chet had a guitar in every room in his house. You may note that Chet began to sing when he was on stage. His wanting to sing was probably in his mind for years. Suzy Bogas (man what beautiful legs) and Chet sang together and did a little dance that was very nice.
every room in is house is probably and exaggeration mainly because there's no need when you can carry a guitar everywhere. Many people say he played in cars and taxis going to gigs and studio dates. so he certainly played in every room. most likely bathroom included. traveling if someone else was driving chet was playing. it's said you have to get 5000 hours into an instrument to know it. I wonder how many hour chet had.
There are many talented guitar players but every once in a while a freak of Nature comes along that is beyond talented. Stanley Jordon is one in a million.
And Shawn Lane.
Not a freak,just a devoted ,talented ,musician,making at least some of this world, a better place ,by his talent.
I saw him in the French Quarter in the early 80's. He's arguably the best guitarist ever!

I've never seen a guitarist play like Stanley Jordan. A truly amazing and gifted musician.
look up Thumbs Carlisle or Jeff Healey. Once the novelty of his technique wore off, Jordan faded quickly. He just didn't make listenable music...
