Hey Brother what's up!!.. if you could only Hear jazz is dead. Jimmy Herring is a freaking Beast of an animal. He has got a smooth Superfast laid-back side to him almost like Jerry's. If Trey thinks he has a smooth laid-back style he is decidedly wrong compared to Jimmy. Cuz we both know that he can row Jimmy Row.......... and way back in the 90s there wasn't many people playing Grateful Dead songs on stage then Phish..... I don't care some people can be racist and call it Jewie but I love it all.... none of that irrelevant stuff up there matters to a guy like me who grew up with the most oddest childhood you could possibly think of. Music has been tapping my head like a person with a lollipop trying to get my attention from my entire life.
Herring’s best friend at music school was Jeff Buckley. Jeff was 17, Jimmy in early 20s. He says of Buckley in an interview: I’ll tell you something about him: That cat had the best ear of anybody I have ever been around. This was before the days of being able to digitally slow down Coltrane solos.This cat transcribed all these Coltrane solos, all this stuff from Steve Vai’s Flex-able album, Dregs stuff, Alan Holdsworth solos-you name it. It was inspirational. I was trying to do the same thing, but he was the first guy I met who was as into it as I was-but he was much further along.
I toured with Jimmy in Aquarium Rescue Unit 1995-1996 . Jeff Sipe was the original drummer in that band. Jimmy knows his instrument so well.. He wrote the syllabus for the guitar course at Atlanta Institute of Music.i was very impressed with your ear. A great lesson as I’m an accomplished guitarist as drums are my main instrument .i think its fascinating that someone like yourself can break down harmony as quick and pretty accurate..👍
Col Bruce Hampton and the Aquarium Rescue Unit? Jimmy Herring, Jeff Sipe(AptQ258), Oteil Burbridge, and Matt Mundy(Mandolin)!!! The Original Force of Nature, I promise you!! Check it out and spread the word!
Jimmy is above most of our pay grades. The bands he puts together are always top notch musicians. They have to be to pull it off. Check out Jimmy and John McLaughlin together on John's farewell tour of the US. Those were mind blowing shows. I was lucky to catch one.
Will never forget seeing Jimmy when he was with ARU. Never saw him before at the time (maybe circa 1996) live at the covered dish in Gainesville, Fl. This was a a very intimate place and I was literally right in front of him the whole time. I just knew he was on his way to special things along with the rest of the band. That was an amazing performance that night alongside Oteil and the rest of the band. He had a lit cigarette hanging from his mouth the whole show without taking a drag with his fingers which was quite impressive! Great content here as usual.
Studied guitar perfomance at umass. Love your videos. Great quick analysis and explanations without any sort of condescending demeanor. Stumbled upon this channel because of the Dead videos and its great to see you taking the commenters' suggetions and checking out stuff you've not heard before, diving in at the deep end.
Love your channel and I don't even play guitar! Your insight emotionally with regard to the music is refreshing. I was lucky enough to catch the tour with McLaughlin. Spectacular to say the least. That was the show which made me realize at a deeper level how insanely good Jimmy is. His work with the Allman Bros was stellar. Really enjoyed him with Phil Lesh and Friends also.
Don't quit pausing!! That is when we learn. You have a great ear and catch things not all of us can, when you stop and figure things out, even if not note for note, it helps us learn! It is very helpful to hear you explain what your hearing, the approach you think the guitarist is taking, etc. Also, the more you stop and start it, the more you are probably interested in it, so I say have at it!!
A little note about the drummer, Jeff Sipe. I had the honor of meeting him once. This well connected friend of mine had a party and invited a bunch of bands to play. My band played before the Jeff Sipe Trio. We weren't very good at the time. Just a garage band really. But Jeff gave us lots of really nice compliments. He has a huge heart. A very humble and kind person. Then his band took the stage and Tore It Up!!! They proceeded to play for about 5 hours without taking a break. Amazing!!
gone to see over 150 shows with Jimmy Herring! He is an absolute guitar genius. Depending on the style of music he is playing he plays the perfect scales. He is known for his fast picking parts, great tone, technically perfect, and all around hell of an awesome guy that everyone loves playing with.
I was wondering when you'd get around to finding Jimmy Herring. Go check out some old Aquarium Rescue Unit performances - with Colonel Bruce Hampton. Amazing stuff.
Yes! Jimmy is a legend. Please do a Widespread Panic with Mikey the original guitarist as well. So different and unique. Love the content. Keep them coming 👍
C’mon! That’s the only jimmy song you can follow, not random lol.Matt from Dothan, Alabama, close to my old stomping grounds Troy. Glad to have seen this band at the ARU reunion, and John McLaughlin tour. You guys rock!
2:59 - 3:09 bit of outside nastiness is all B half-step/whole-step diminished scale with plenty of large intervallic leaps thrown in. Amazing how melodic he makes it sound.
Quick history: Col Bruce Hampton & Aquarium Rescue Unit were crazy players in Atlanta in late 80's early 90's. Jimmy Herring, Jeff Sipe (drummer in this video), Oteil Burbridge, Matt Mundy and Col. Bruce. The band was too out there for main stream, but the talent was undeniable. Derek Trucks opened for them when he was like 13 and met Jimmy. Over the years, as each players chops became better known, they moved on to different things and Jimmy played in one of the post Jerry versions of the Dead, played with the Allmans for a while with Warren Haynes and with Derek and took over for Widespread Panic after Hauser died. Oteil, similarly, played with the Allmans for years and now is the bass player for Dead and company. But the original band was possibly the most talented group of rock players to play, sort of Mahuvishnu Orchestra if the leader was carnival barker / alien / andy kaufman wrestler type. But that will tie together a lot of the players and bands - jimmy, warren, derek, oteil, alma's, dead, panic.
This band is world class over, under, sideways, down! Jimmy on guitars, Jeff Sipe (AKA Apt Q258) drems, Matt Slocumb keys, my good friend Neil Fountain on bass. Every player is at the pinnacle of his craft.
Guitargate. Jeff Sipe and Jimmy go way back. Both started out in Aquarium Rescue Unit along with Oteil Burbidge, under the leadership of Col. Bruce Hampton. Sipe is world renowned.
Todd Hurley, this is a true story that follows. A Guitar shop in my hometown that is owned by a top notch guitarist who is in his mid fifties now. He is good friends with Steve Morse. I was talking about Jimmy in the store a month or so ago and mentioned Steve being one of Jimmy's idol's. He say's ...Man whenever I ask Steve what he's listening to these days for inspiration all he can talk about is Jimmy Herring. Saying "Man Jimmy is the best out here now". True Story hands to the sky🙏
I saw The Steve Morse Band at the Tabernacle in Atlanta. I was at one of the balcony bars when this tall hippie with long blond hair walked up to order a beer. I almost shit my pants when I realized who it was. Jimmy told me that he idolized Steve Morse. I stood about 6 feet in front of Jimmy when Jazz is Dead played the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta. Blew my head right off! Jeff Side AND Rod Morgenstein in the same band (it took both of them to replace Billy Cobham)!! WOW
Went to see Dixie Dregs in Augusta a few years back and happened to turn around to Jimmy Herring and Duane Trucks (Derek's little bro) sitting right behind me. It was wild seeing Jimmy watch another guitarist the way people watch him
Hi Michael I know there is almost no chance to react on tunes with like 1000 views. Anyway...this jazz rock trio FS3 from the Austrian guitarist Joe Doblhofer is simply mindblowing. By the way Doblhofer is also a sideman of the german Jazz/Metal/Funk band Panzerballett. But that´s a different story ;) Thanks for all the great stuff you do!
: I used a B7 funk backtracking. I don’t know, perhaps because I’ve playing this for year, I don’t have problems to switch from b3 to 3 keeping the structure of the solo. I was basically doing what you suggested: 4 bars minor, 4 bars major, and then all mixed. I hear both intervals. I suppose it comes from years listening, for example, John Scofield.
Awesome Vids - loving it! - thank you from a fellow jam band guitarist. If you get a chance do some Steve Kimock Band next circa 2000-2004, and also a big huge Phish Improv Jam like ghost 11/17/97 - thank you
You have done Derek, Jimmy, now you need to keep in the "family" and do Warren Haynes. Hardest working guitarist in show business. Lots of good Mule songs. Also, if you do more Herring, Panic and ARU are good, but in my opinion Jazz is Dead is one of the best bands every assembled. Unfortunately the videos on youtube for them aren't the best quality (Jimmy was part of the original lineup which was the best, it has changed in last few years).
Jimmys album Lifeboat is up there for all time Jazz Rock Fusion albums, he's another guy that does a lot with a volume pedal and a cranked amp. With this progression from Derek Trucks to Jimmy Herring you are getting into the upper echelon of players, I'm not sure who you tackle next, maybe Steve Morse or the mythical Allan Holdsworth?
Aquarium rescue unit ... Jimmy was so humble before he got noticedbeen a loyal fan as the man... love you Jimmy . been a loyal fan since the duck taped guitar days thank you. on another note could you take notice of the late great Rusty Burns from Point Blank ?(Thank you momma) or any such a great player (lefty and up side down)
That would be Jeff Sipe on drums, aka Apt. Q258 of ARU fame (also with Jimmy). One of the all time greats. If you really want your mind blown, you must check out some Hellborg Lane Sipe. (And if you're not familiar with Shawn Lane RIP, well, hold on tight). Temporal Analogues of Paradise is probably their best recording- two extended jams from a late 90s tour in Europe. Absolutely incendiary. Was a total game changer for me.
Check out some JGB. Jerry Garcia Band 88-91. Cats down under the stars, Run for the Roses. I love the way Melvin seals and Jerry connected well. John Kahn on Bass I think Kemper on drums. I’m sure you’ll like what you hear.
I’m not sure if you saw any of my other comments but i would really enjoy a brewery session reaction or two of colter wall or some Tyler Childers Creek sessions they’re absolutely amazing
Would you maybe look into Amos Garrett’s various work? I especially like his solo on “Please Send Me Someone to Love” on the Paul Butterfield Better Days band’s first album together. Also on “Georgia” from the “Pottery Pie” album by Jeff and Maria Muldaur” or even his solo in the Jesse Winchester version of “Third Rate Romance.” These really changed my concept of guitar solos completely. They might be hard to find - 1970s mostly, back when amps were coal-powered. Amos did the hall-of-fame solo on Maria Muldaur’s “Midnight at the Oasis.”
The Apartment!! Jeff Sipe has been playing with Herring for decades. He was in the original Aquarian Rescue Unit lineup as "Apt. Q258" that band was so sick. Oteil and Sipe locked in was unstoppable...
Love seeing these new videos, every time I think of a new artist you should post there it is in my recommended videos. Been on a big Widespread panic kick lately seen them a bunch live. Next up, Warren Haynes / Govt Mule please and thank you!
I would love to see you do a video of Steve Kimock. Everyone in this lineup is insanely talented but Steve and the drummer, Rodney Holmes, are incredible. Most of his live songs are like 15+ minutes but this is a shorter one with some great solos by Steve. ua-cam.com/video/HJ45hPZ_2kU/v-deo.html
I would also add that while the Dominant 7 is opening him up to the use of major and minor, the 7#9 actually has implications of a fully diminished harmony because of the 5, flat7 and #9, which obscures the tonal palate even further, and by doing so, opens up what a skilled soloist can play and still make sound intentional.
ua-cam.com/video/wx7J1E4L8io/v-deo.html Kinda case in point. Lots and lots of diminished lines mixed into this seldom played dead song... And, Billy Cobham!
Hmm... Went home and looked at my keys and nope... That's a 7b9, no #9. Not sure what I'm hearing here. But the fact remains that with a 7#9, the only note that doesn't really work is the maj7.
You hit it on the head with tasteful. Jimmy is one of the most tasteful players out there. Someone else on here said "you know he can Row Jimmy," and hell yes I would def check out the live version of Jazz is Dead doing that song on Laughing Water. The guitar duel between Herring and Derek Trucks on that recording is simply perfection.
Widespread Panic - "Ride Me High" - Charleston, SC - 10.04.2013 the jam after 9:00 Jimmy starts throwing down serious shit!! His ghostly volume swells, whammy dives, fast picking
Super tight!…if you want to push a wee bit further you gotta set your sights for Phil & Friends from the early 2000’s. Jimmy Herring and Warren Haynes (another giant to dedicate a show to) …talk about two guitar monsters! Do yourself a favor and at least snoop around for any material, you will not be disappointed. Love the show btw.
I love Jimmy Herrring! There was nothing better than when he and Derek Trucks were playing in the Allman Bros. Or the Dead. Not sure which but they sounded fantastic together. I’d like to see Jimmy Herring and Walter Trout jam with Phish.
being from Georgia and especially middle georgia.. i grew up on the Allman Bros. I watched Jimmy for years way before Panic... I saw Panic play their 2nd show ever .. Jimmy was way better before the panic days... Mikey Houser is Panics guitarist the rest that follow are all just stand ins by the way. Jimmy Herring with Jazz is Dead now that is good stuff.. i was there in middle GA in late 80-2000 ... i saw all these guys play dozens and dozens if not hundreds of times... you just had to be there it was Amazing times for music...Allgood Music Co. John Carter..and Matt.. Col. Bruce.. Kevin Kenny ..Edwin McCain.. The Black Crowes..Rick Richards and the Ga Satellites ..Cigar Store Indians .. .not too mention REM and the whole Athens thing
When you get to Widespread Panic, choose a song with Mike Houser, their original lead guitarist. Preferably Space Wrangler, Holden Oversoul, Walkin' (For Your Love).
Houser was an original member of the band. He passed away of cancer in 2002. Jimmy Herring didn’t join the band until 2006. Here is a link to good Mikey ua-cam.com/video/B0PxTXtMfKs/v-deo.html

Dare you to check out some young Derek trucks band from the 90's. Cheesecake live. Was some funky stuff, saw him live & never seen anyone play slide like em!
Check out Frogwings. Most talent probably ever assembled in one super group. You've got Herring, Derek, Butch Trucks, Marc Quinones, John Popper, Kofi Burbridge, and Oteil. Croakin' At Toad's is effing fantastic.
Mix ye a major, mix ye a minor, be left in awe of the MAN - Jimmy Herring :)

And Kofi. Those were some good times. And some mind-bending shows.
Chuck Leavell played with them for a number of tours. Who has also played with everyone.
Awesome pick! 'Jazz is dead' was one of my favorite bands in the late 90's!! Jimmy was lead I'm pretty sure. They had some great stuff!!
Jimmy is above most of our pay grades. The bands he puts together are always top notch musicians. They have to be to pull it off. Check out Jimmy and John McLaughlin together on John's farewell tour of the US. Those were mind blowing shows. I was lucky to catch one.

I’m not sure if you saw any of my other comments but i would really enjoy a brewery session reaction or two of colter wall or some Tyler Childers Creek sessions they’re absolutely amazing

Jeff SIpe and Neil Foutain Bass and Drums wonderful souls / good people to know
Mattson 2: Ursa Polaris Sessions, or really anything by the Mattson 2 is really good. Very surf rock jazzy vibes. Great stuff.
You look like Scott Ackerman... I love watching the reaction. Love the videos!
Would you maybe look into Amos Garrett’s various work? I especially like his solo on “Please Send Me Someone to Love” on the Paul Butterfield Better Days band’s first album together. Also on “Georgia” from the “Pottery Pie” album by Jeff and Maria Muldaur” or even his solo in the Jesse Winchester version of “Third Rate Romance.” These really changed my concept of guitar solos completely. They might be hard to find - 1970s mostly, back when amps were coal-powered. Amos did the hall-of-fame solo on Maria Muldaur’s “Midnight at the Oasis.”
The Apartment!! Jeff Sipe has been playing with Herring for decades. He was in the original Aquarian Rescue Unit lineup as "Apt. Q258" that band was so sick. Oteil and Sipe locked in was unstoppable...
Love seeing these new videos, every time I think of a new artist you should post there it is in my recommended videos. Been on a big Widespread panic kick lately seen them a bunch live. Next up, Warren Haynes / Govt Mule please and thank you!
That lick you said he uses “a flat 5 or two” is the B symmetric dominant scale
I commented to do this one on the summertime review haha!
Check out Tosin Abasi - Song of Solomon
Amazing Nigerian guitarist and one of the most respected progressive guitarists currently.
I would love to see you do a video of Steve Kimock. Everyone in this lineup is insanely talented but Steve and the drummer, Rodney Holmes, are incredible. Most of his live songs are like 15+ minutes but this is a shorter one with some great solos by Steve.

THis is the track I was going to send you!
I would also add that while the Dominant 7 is opening him up to the use of major and minor, the 7#9 actually has implications of a fully diminished harmony because of the 5, flat7 and #9, which obscures the tonal palate even further, and by doing so, opens up what a skilled soloist can play and still make sound intentional.
ua-cam.com/video/wx7J1E4L8io/v-deo.html Kinda case in point. Lots and lots of diminished lines mixed into this seldom played dead song... And, Billy Cobham!
Hmm... Went home and looked at my keys and nope... That's a 7b9, no #9. Not sure what I'm hearing here. But the fact remains that with a 7#9, the only note that doesn't really work is the maj7.
You hit it on the head with tasteful. Jimmy is one of the most tasteful players out there. Someone else on here said "you know he can Row Jimmy," and hell yes I would def check out the live version of Jazz is Dead doing that song on Laughing Water. The guitar duel between Herring and Derek Trucks on that recording is simply perfection.
Gotta check out Wayne Krantz and Julian Lage. 2 Jazz virtuosos that have really paved their own unique style
Widespread Panic - "Ride Me High" - Charleston, SC - 10.04.2013 the jam after 9:00 Jimmy starts throwing down serious shit!! His ghostly volume swells, whammy dives, fast picking
Check out Scapegoat Blues by Jimmy as well. Lots of fun stuff going on with that one! He’s definitely the man!
Super tight!…if you want to push a wee bit further you gotta set your sights for Phil & Friends from the early 2000’s. Jimmy Herring and Warren Haynes (another giant to dedicate a show to) …talk about two guitar monsters! Do yourself a favor and at least snoop around for any material, you will not be disappointed. Love the show btw.
I love Jimmy Herrring! There was nothing better than when he and Derek Trucks were playing in the Allman Bros. Or the Dead. Not sure which but they sounded fantastic together. I’d like to see Jimmy Herring and Walter Trout jam with Phish.
Check out "Col. Bruce Hampton & The Aquarium Rescue Unit" a band he was in with Jeff Sipe, Otiel Burbage & more. Mind melting stuff...
being from Georgia and especially middle georgia.. i grew up on the Allman Bros. I watched Jimmy for years way before Panic... I saw Panic play their 2nd show ever .. Jimmy was way better before the panic days... Mikey Houser is Panics guitarist the rest that follow are all just stand ins by the way. Jimmy Herring with Jazz is Dead now that is good stuff.. i was there in middle GA in late 80-2000 ... i saw all these guys play dozens and dozens if not hundreds of times... you just had to be there it was Amazing times for music...Allgood Music Co. John Carter..and Matt.. Col. Bruce.. Kevin Kenny ..Edwin McCain.. The Black Crowes..Rick Richards and the Ga Satellites ..Cigar Store Indians .. .not too mention REM and the whole Athens thing
Love to see some Khruangbin on your channel!
Another great video! Still waiting for u to tackle some Danny Gatton
Love the faces he makes
When you get to Widespread Panic, choose a song with Mike Houser, their original lead guitarist. Preferably Space Wrangler, Holden Oversoul, Walkin' (For Your Love).
Mikey gets no respect. 😔 Jimmy is amazing. Pretty much perfect technically but no one has ever done it for me like Mikey.
I've literally NEVER heard Mike Houser. I'll be sure to do that. Link me up :)
Houser was an original member of the band. He passed away of cancer in 2002. Jimmy Herring didn’t join the band until 2006. Here is a link to good Mikey

@@Guitargate here's a live version of Henry Parson's Died with Michael Houser on guitar. ua-cam.com/video/z1LejAfCvoI/v-deo.html
@@Guitargate It's actually surprisingly difficult to find videos of him with high quality sound on UA-cam but I'll try.

That should get you started haha. Hope you enjoy.
I've seen panic about 10 times with Jimmy and have never heard him fuck up
the white wizard. How about some panic next time?
ALSO would love a ween video
How do you like the PRS SE hollow? Tuners and everything else good stock? Thanks man, loving the vids
Killer! Can’t put it down!
You should get a footswitch to operate the video player!
You could have basic controls... rewind (15 sec increments), play/pause, fast forward (15 sec increments).
Keyboard Maestro + any USB midi footswitch would take care of this pretty easily. Let me know if you're interested in the idea.
Dare you to check out some young Derek trucks band from the 90's. Cheesecake live. Was some funky stuff, saw him live & never seen anyone play slide like em!
YESS!!! Jimmy!!!!
Check out Frogwings. Most talent probably ever assembled in one super group. You've got Herring, Derek, Butch Trucks, Marc Quinones, John Popper, Kofi Burbridge, and Oteil. Croakin' At Toad's is effing fantastic.
Not sure how you feel about Bluegrass but I’d love to see a breakdown of some Billy Strings!
Perfect cure for a case of the Mondays!!
Awesome stuff! When you get a chance, check out Hellborg, Lane and Sipe if you haven’t already.
At 15:00 he briefly channels the Universal Knowing. He actually heard Jimmy.
