    I would NEVER pass by anyone playing guitar with such talent without stopping by to give them the high sign and acknowledge their awesomeness.

      Well, as a guitarist myself, this is one of those songs that is so overly played that it's banned in some music stores. He did a great job, no doubt, but it's like hearing "Shape of You", "Can't Stop the Feeling", "Uptown Funk" or "Sugar".

    50 years ago Deep Purple gave us the masterpiece Machine Head. And to watch this guy playing Smoke on the water is really amazing.
    He deserves my respect.
    Keep on rocking . Well done .
    The gods of rock salute you.

      If you got places to go, people to meet with or just are not into that older 70's rock, it's understandable.

    • @jackjackattack9137
      @jackjackattack9137 9 років тому +4

      James Bell yes sir ! Originals would be the springboard for your career. And I have commented this on several vids you have shared, if there is anyway possible (only my opinion) you or your dad could get you connected with Joe Satriani that would be extremely beneficial to both you and him. Joe is a great guy and excellent influence to other artists. James I truly hope you do well and many of guitarists can see your talent and hope to see you playing here in the States ! Thank you for sharing !

  • @ZiddersRooFurry
    @ZiddersRooFurry 11 років тому

    It's always good to know how to read music. That being said, there are a lot of guitarists who have made a decent living doing it who don't know how to (Slash being one example). Don't stress about it-knowledge is important, but it's only part of the whole package. The most important thing is heart. You need to do the best you can to appreciate yourself, always. Don't ever let anyone get you down. Learn chords, learn rhythm. Just remember to be yourself. Emulate, don't imitate. Be you.
