Ole Satch! Surfing with the Alien casssette always takes me back circa 1987 in my 66 chevy with 6x9s in the back and 40watt realistic eq booster and my high school sweetheart riding next to me. What a time that was! God Bless
Same here. My high-school sweet heart and my wife today loved Satch
The EQ in the car! Oh, I miss those days.
@@bfields1448that's awesome you got to marry your high school sweetheart. Unfortunately we didnt make it but its still great memories for me. I practically wore out surfing with the alien cassette. Later I had a mustang GT and that exhaust sound always reminded me of the intro effect on surfing with the alien 😄 launching!
Alpine pull out stereo with Kenwood's and a Kicker Sub blasting Satch through a Pioneer amp !!
my ears got tweaked when Surfing 🌊 was used on the NFL action lead-in WHO IS THAT???
Always with me. Always with you.
Yes.
I LOVE "Surfing with the Alien"! Was my first JS CD- it Kicks A** all the way through from beginning to end!
I got The Bells of Lal, Pt. 2
When did he mention that?
Love that song and echo is also amazing.
I love hearing 'the artist's view' in these interviews. The perspective, the feeling, the thought process. The experiences, history and currency (current state) of the art.
It certainly is unifying.... in that we all have similar struggles with the craft. The bit about the mechanics of music vs the art or music, IMO was a bit dramatic. Many great songs sprang from practice routines. In the realm of Rich Graham's guitar licks, he sometimes says "feel don't think" however in the study there's a whole lot of thinking that goes into playing while "not thinking". And finally, Robert Plant said, craft overrides art when it comes to songwriting. But yes, (currency)!
My all-time favorite Satch song is "The Forgotten(Part 2)." In fact its one of my favorite guitar instrumentals period. I saw Joe in Houston back in the late 80s in a smaller venue. Awesome concert. Awesome band. Stu Hamm on bass was a revelation to me.
I drove past a small group of homeless people under an underpass one rainy morning. This song was playing in the car and hit so hard. The beauty of the song filled my being. I went back with burgers. Wish I had more to give. 😢
Absolutely 💯
Would that be old Coliseum?I saw him there on Flying in a Blue Dream tour
@jeffpoehl9100 Jeff I honestly don't remember the name of the club. I'm not from Houston but went with my brother-in-law from Houston. I'm not sure which album he was supporting either. Just drawing a complete blank...but I sure remember Stu playing the Peanuts theme song on bass. Totally blew my mind how he pulled that off .
Met Joe in 2008 at a guitar festival in New Zealand when I played a set of Deep Purple with Glenn Hughes. He's a cool cat and was a huge influence on me in the 90's. It was great having him, Stu Hamm and jeff Campetelli watching our set from side of stage.
That's so awesome. I play Ibanez because of him after I started getting better at my playing in the late 90's. Definitely still inspiring. 👍
I’ve seen Glenn twice. Once solo and once with The Dead Daisy’s. Congrats he’s a legend.
G-TARanaki? Epic show!! That must have been amazing to play with Glenn Hughes 🤘
Can't believe I missed that show! I would have loved to have seen Joe in NZ.
Met him in 2007 and I had over 15 people watching our set from side stage. work on getting a better story.
I had no idea Joe was 64... he looks 50 or younger. Seems like a very down to earth guy.
He's 67 or 68
It's the cap...😉
Joe turns 68 this summer.
This clip is a few years old.
I guess you’re new to guitar
@@johnmcmahonBXLAyour moms a few years old
I saw Joe around 1988 in a small theater on South Street in Philadelphia. I couldn't believe what I was hearing and seeing. It looked like the music was coming out of his bones. Never thought he struggled for so long to get that sound on each piece of music because it looked so natural.
Flying in a blue dream is still my absolute favorite Satriani song...
I just love it...
That is an unbelievable song! I would probably still say Summer Song is his best. The entire Extremist album is incredible!
@@hambonewc Summer song is awesome and a really fantastic track for background music to motor sport videos. Just like in the video.
@@hambonewcAgreed. My favorite track, and I think one of his absolute best, is Why. Flying in a Blue Dream is my favorite album, then The Extremist then Crystal Planet.
Love that dude.
@@KingBeevr I was just literally talking to my Cousin about Why. So awesome!
@@hambonewc Yes!!! It has one of the best solos ever. I put it in my top 20 solos of all time, along with the outro to Comfortably Numb, Zakk Wylde killing it on No More Tears. It is so fun to play, especially if you have a good wah pedal. I've got a Dimebag Cry baby and it rips.
But it's also fun to play on your steering wheel while driving down the freeway. Steering wheel guitar is some of the best guitar.
It's pretty insane when you think what Rick has brought us in the last 12 months especially. When I was a kid growing up only with magasines to look at, I wouldn't have believed it if you said I could watch my favourite artists being interviewed online like this any time.
Awesome interview with Joe! To Rick's enduring credit, he knows how to ask great questions, but even more importantly he leaves his guests ample room to talk and does not interrupt them. Kudos to Joe and Rick.
I love SATCH. I’ve seen him in concert 5 times through the years and every one of his performances were absolutely mind blowing. He has the gift of being a very technical player but he plays with a ton of feel at the same time. A class act all the way. Thank you Rick for posting this. Again, another very high quality interview.
Gotta say, for me, 'Clouds Race Across The Sky' is still my fave! I listen to it almost every morning.
I saw Satch in Tucson at the Fox Theater in 2016. What a killer show.... Bryan Beller on bass, Mike Knealley on guitars and keys, and Marco Minneman on drums. I sadly missed the G3 in Tucson this past January but I'd love to see Satch again before he hangs it up
I did my most productive Stained Glass work, with Surfing With The Alien and Flying In A Blue Dream, playing over and over again!
Awesome stuff!
I love Satch. "Circles" off the Alien album is one of the coolest things I've ever heard.
Yes
I love the whole side 2 - I mean Midnight is mind blowing (especially for that time period) Personally, Surfing and Satch boogie never did it fir me. Also Crushing day ....crushes!
Crushing Day is incredible! Fun fact... That song is so difficult for Joe to play, he could only play it sitting down.
What a journey. Like so many, I heard about Joe from my guitar teacher. I searched all over Denver for a recording, and finally found his first LP, "Not Of This Earth" at Wax Trax on Capitol Hill. That was 1986, prior to "Surfing With The Alien." I've been a fan ever since, and have been fortunate to speak with him a few times.
The best imo
Will be seeing him and Steve Vai on the 23rd down here in South FL. Can’t wait
Saw "The Alien" back in 95 in a small club.The BEST!!!
As artists we tend to be so critical of our performances. I have found that videoing everything I do 'Live' to be very valuable. IMHO we really can't judge our performances while we are performing and as Joe says we remember all the perceived mistakes, BUT, when viewing and listening to the performance, also like Joe says, we sometimes find things that we've done that are good that we didn't realize we did in the moment. That's what makes it all worth while. Joe is a great example of trying different things and then later seeing and listening to what works. He's just amazing!!
I saw Satch at the LBC in Sonoma County when he had hair. I saw him again the next year, same venue, without hair. He brought that up and said to us in the crowd "I lost a bet." We go back a long way with Joe Satriani. At 56 I'm still learning working on the fretboard and so I took you up, Rick, on your Arpeggio Course offer. I've had it for a little more than a week and moving one week per section. Week two and I'm in the Minor section vid 4. This Course is perfect for me.
I was thinking about buying his entire course. I’m working on the neck as well. Sounds like you are really liking it
@@riceflatpicking4954 I do like it. I've spent a lot of time working on the 5 positions and learning the modes which can be condensed into "CAGED" but that's all the notes all the time. It really becomes musical when you break those scales up into specific chord tones or Arpeggios. This particular course contains no bullshit. It's straight to point and a great tool to begin practicing and hearing differences between the 1 chord and the 5 chord or Ionian and Mixolydian, if you're nerdy like me. I hope you enjoy it as well.
Joe is one of the great shredders that still writes songs , a lot of guys get lost in their abilities , Joe doesn't , others that are like that , Gary Moore , Steve Lukather . I have seen some great players that don't care about the road , they are always full throttle , and after half an hour I'm completely worn out and done . I've seen Joe 8 times , and that never happens . His guitar is like a paint brush ! Another great video Rick !
Jeez I love this. I asked for a Joe Satriani interview past video. Perfect timing! JS been my fav guitarist all over the years
Joe Satriani, The ultimate combination of a genius maestro, composer, guitar master with the nicest human being mother Earth can provide.
One overlooked solo is the one on "Mind Storm"- it's absolutely incredible
What album?
@@brianmiller2075 it's on "Strange Beautiful Music". Not often talked about but I think it's one of his most interesting albums
@@Cakeashake Oriental Melody and Belly Dance are class tunes, nice to see some love for that album!
I met him back in probably the mid-90s early '90s behind the venue he was playing in he come around the corner of a bus and I about ran into and he was one of the most nicest hospitable down to earth musicians I've ever met her people I've ever met he was so polite and so cool I had a cassette that tells you how long ago this was of his he signed the inside of it for me and told me I hope I enjoyed the show and was just real cool dude very humble
Welcome to the old timers club Joe. I'm sure I don't need to say it - but I will anyway. ROCK TILL YA DROP!!! (thank you for years of inspiration.).
Love Joe. Thank you for doing the interview. I look forward to more. I subbed long ago to this new channel. Peace
When Joe gets written off as a shredder, it's because people have clearly missed just how much of a musician he is.
I've been fortunate to meet Joe twice? He isJust the nicest guy...reminded me of BB King...same sort of spirit...♥️
Joe is the guitarist I listen to most. I have almost all the albums, been to countless Joe gigs and his gigs and his music just make me feel good! He's also such a genuine, likeable, cool guy.
Satriani is so cool
I met Joe backstage in Portland Oregon on Burnside back in 06(?). Hes very approachable, genuinely to even to non musicians. Been a fan since 1992!
Joe obviously has a tremendous musical memory. His ability to play his songs live, show after show, year after year, to the standard he does is exceptional. If I have one criticism it is that, given his outstanding musical talent, he hasn't offered us longer and more complex compositions, with perhaps more improvisation thrown in for good measure. But he seems comfortable with playing his perfectly worked out solos in a note-perfect way.
Joe does what Joe does, mate.
@@BaxterThewall I think "they" do it for the fans. SRV early on played a lot of improve over his songs, (a true bluesman) but fans had "Double Trouble" following along on some of his big improv swings. So, Vaughan dialed it back and stayed closer to the original melody lines.
Awesome interview!!
I remember listening to Joe play at the forum in Melbourne I didn't have a ticket so I held my ear up next to an exit door. A bouncer outside caught me and he was so nice said he's awesome isn't he and let me listen. Was lucky to get a ticket the next night I was up front in awe and he threw a pick I got it. Still have it what a treasure. All so happened with testament at the prince of wales Eric Peterson swiped other people's hands out that the way to hand me his pick. He saw something because I was right into it loving it so yea awesome. Memories great.
Saw him live at Bospop, Weert, 1998 or so. Stu Hamm with him, don't recall the drummer for sure but oh boy what a show. Energy 😊
That Bospop was stunning by the way. Anathema was there, Flower Kings, Satch, and... Dream Theatre ❤❤❤
I've been fortunate to see Joe live many times over the years and he is always inspiring. What I've noticed about great guitar players playing live is they are not playing all the solos note for note and play by feel of the song and audience reaction which I love. Take the late great Gary Moore for instant, he says he zones out during solos and sometimes they are 2 minutes and sometimes they are 12 minutes but they are all great.
Joe is such an intelligent down to earth person. He stands out from the other guitarists, and not simply because of the quality of his music😃
It is cool to see him basically say that a recording of a song is a version of it, which lives on taking different shapes publicly on shows. I think its cool to do iterations of stuff, its fun and people love it when there is something clearly unique about the live performance and performer being fired up.
I view my songs as as good demonstrations of them as I could do when I recorded them. I make music with some 1:1 replayability, but I can not even make half my gear sound the same twice. I write new riffs that makes stuff groove differently and its fun to me.
I had no idea you had another channel Rick, now I’m subscribed to both, been on your other channel for 3 years and love your work!
Joe satriani is always an inspiration since i was a kid into punk untill now that i am jazz pianist, i love his energe his emphaty is great timing and musicality and his depth when it comes to music
The bridge from Crying is up there, but also Flying in a blue dream, Ceremony, The forgotten pt. 2, If there is no heaven .. boy there are so many! What a legend ❤
Summer Song. War. Crystal Planet. House Full of Bullets. So many! The solo in Can't Slow Down is badass!!
IMO Engines of creation was a path that could lead Joe into new realms..
It was mindblowing first when i heard it..
Yeah. That makes sense. He’s at a level where his creativity matters more than new techniques. The Legend Himself 🙂
My favorite is Rubina (Live at the Tower Theatre, Philadelphia, PA - December 1992). Just beautiful.
Summer song. I listened to it every day for months. I love it
Rick great interview with Satch. You are hitting on all cylinders. Could you try to get Dann Huff to do an interview with you? He is a great influence on me and has been on so involved on so many albums but still relatively unknown.
Joe and Steve will be in Atlanta at the end of this month. You should get them both on again!
Satch is such an empathic type of guy. So he comes very friendly in each time I saw him on stage or video. Like the nice guy next door....and yes it is always with me 😉
I love how comfortable Joe is talking to Rick . It’s like he respects Rick enough to really unload on him . The most impressive thing about Joe is how humble he is . Always reaching . Always trying to make something new . Truly inspiring!
I didn't realize or know about 2 channels, so I just subscribed here after you asked us.
Cheers Rick-
You're the best....with all the best! 🎉
Priceless, invaluable 🕉 🎸 ✨️ 🎶
Some asked Miles Davis- what do you do to practice?
Miles said: I don't practice, I never practice- I play, that's all.
Branford Marsalis brilliant saxophone 🎷 player was giving a talk at U.C. Berkeley. He came to being asked what's most important in music! 🎶
He said, it's not theory, or reading music etc. The most important thing is your hear...listening, hearing..music in your ears!
(Much to the professor's dismay!)
Narada Michael Walden was giving a talk on Shattuck Ave. in Berkeley- for some reason! I don't remember. But I was fortunate enough to go. Really great to hear all he had to say, his enthusiasm and experience, positive vibes.
Love his drumming and his records. I went up afterwards to say hello and thank him. At one point he looks at me and says to a few others- I looked out and saw you, and I thought- if I just keep focused on him, (me) I'll be alright, I'll say everything I need too. (!)
Narada! Damn!
Beautiful, what a blessing.
I saw him 'several' times with Jeff Beck 2011. THAT was a blessing, I'm so, so grateful 🙏 for that.
The maestro- guitar 🎸
Cheers Rick 🕉 🎶
Crushing Day off SWTA alien is my fave Joe solo... I believe it was all pre-written and not off the cuff like the rest of the album and so he tries to play it the same live each time. It's a cracker!
Satriani's music has gotten me through the tough times. I love his music.
My dad had a Time machine tape in a car, I was pre school kid and remember how we played a tape over and over and over again... I could whistle every single note that he played, literally .
Joe is such a cool guy, and in a big way had influenced my music taste.
These interviews mr. Beato are just priceless.
You remind me of my son. I had the Surfing With the Alien cassette and would play it all the time. When the cassette player in the car broke, he would sing the melody of all the songs. He was 3 at the time. He's a musician now. 😊
Definitely one of the musicians that shaped my musical taste and my style of playing. Oh, boy: how i tried to emulate Satriani's licks and solos when i was a teenager. Great memories! Nice guy and nice interview!
Keep up with the excellent work, Rick! Big shout out from Brazil!
Rick i just subscribed right after your ads for subscription came up😊
My favorite performance and sound by Joe was when he played at the Les Paul tribute show years ago. No floyd rose. AWESOME!
The best part of all of these interviews is the mutual respect the artists and Rick have for one another. They open up and give the real stories of their work.
Thank you! This is great!
I’ve seen Joe a few times in concert, the first time in 1986 in Redding, California; blew out my eardrums!
Joe, besides being a great guitarplayer, has a great personality. When i watch and listen to interview like this one, i keep watching. In the fast world of clicking away videos, this one i don't click away.
Have been listening to Joe for 25+ years now (or more can't remember) and i'm so glad i found him at a young age.
wish he'd had venture deeper into stuff like engines of creation. it was his creative peak and very unique.
Crowd Chant, when "The Joe" plays along with the audience... My favorite song that represents His Greatness the best.
🥰
I still cherish the track " why" from The Extremist i used to lift weights to it it really
What an optimistic and motivational song
Not to mention the unbelieveable playing Joe does on it
Easily my Fave Satch track much love Joe ❤️
Joe's interviews are awesome
the solo of the song Champagne at the end is still my favorite melodic solo ever by Joe.
there's no recreating the masterpieces of yesteryears by young Joe Satriani, songs like forgotten part 2, memories, clouds race across the sky, echo, the bells of lal, fly in a blue dream, and sooo many more unique and interesting songs
I remember when ‘Surfing With The Alien’ was released in my home country, in my first year of playing guitar. There were things Satch played that I had no idea what he was really doing. I remember saying to a friend who was also learning guitar, “You hear this part? He speeded that up in the studio-he’s not really playing all those notes like it sounds.” 😅
Briefly met Satch years later at a gig and he was gracious with my extroversion (I hugged him without warning) and played brilliantly live, clearly loving what he did.
Rick, you gotta do a new “In the studio” interview with Joe!
I get to see Joe & Steve in may. In a setting where the acoustics will be awesome
Dallas ?
Salt Lake City
There is a multitude of incredible guitarists in this world, but Joe Satriani has been my hero since the first time I heard “Not Of This Earth.” Seeing him live is a spiritual experience for me, he bares his soul. I got to meet him and Neil Schon at The Hard Rock Cafe in San Francisco, meeting both was a bucket list moment.
Joe is such a great guy! So humble and close.. I realize that his music only can "play" in my head/ears even when I'm not listening to a device playing it.. :)
subtlety and nuances... it's the name of the game! 😁
greetings from Manila, Philippines!
🇩🇰 Saw Satriani last year at "Posten" in Odense, Denmark and it was excellent 👍👍👍🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
Joe is the one who inspired me to this guitar world.
The beauty oh his ballad songs : you can sing it
A really fascinating insight into Joe's creative process
Many many years ago I worked as security and I was given his personal security detail at the Brixton Academy in London. So I was in his dressing room from when he arrived until he went on stage. He must’ve warmed up for about an hour just playing scales and riffing on his guitar. And in my brief experience of him, what a thoroughly lovely bloke!
Back in 92 or 93 I worked at Sears in the men's department and they had a wall of TV's that played the same videos over and over all day long. One of the videos was Mr. Satriani's "Summer Song" I hope that's the name of it. I heard that song five thousand times at least 😂 but it's a good song.
So many awesome solo's, Joe is one of the greats, thnx for lighting up my childhood, my love for the guitar an playing the instrument !
I would say solo of The extremist is the best. I was so blown away when I heard it. I was back then just 13 yrs. old.
Subscribed Rick...love your vids..
Incredible musician and his names of his songs actually sounds like the dang thing , so wild. He got me through tough years 90s. 2000s. I wish he'd play more songs at his concerts from the extremist album. By the way where is rubina? And the forgotten pt 1 and 2 is my favorites
Oh! New channel! Subscribed!
I grew up a metalhead in the 80s, loved Maiden. Someone handed me a tape of Flying in a blue dream in 1990. What an album. There was something almost hallucinatory about the sound. Love the Satch.
Met joe at guitar center Rockville MD close to 20 years ago, he signed my burnt destroyed les Paul and its still there mounted on the wall.
The outro solo on if I could fly on Is there love in space is interesting. The guys in the mixing booth had their hands on the fader waiting to fade out the track at the right time. But the solo is that good, that they waited and waited and waited, and that is why the track just kind of collapses at the end.
Glad you asked, Rick! Wouldn't know. Thank you! Live long and prosper!
Joe is really just such a sweet, kind, humble, down to earth guy. Sammy even said he’s “kind of shy.” And so modest. He said people would say he “sucks”??? That’s pretty surreal 🤯
I think Joe's playing in "Back to Shalla Bal" should be at or near the top of his list. He was on fire when he recorded that one. What a fantastic song.
To me it doesn´t get any better than "Crushing Day"
Satch is such a chill guy. I doubt anybody has a negative story to tell. I worked night shift for years, and we played the hell out of 'Surfing With the Alien', 'Not of This Earth', and 'Flying in a Blue Dream'. Good times, but I never want to go back to nights!
One of the best interviews.
JOE'S BEST EVER SOLO WAS ON THE SONG 'LOVE THING' ON 'LIVE IN SAN FRANSISCO', IN FACT THE WHOLE SONG MAKES ME SOB EVERY TIME I HEAR IT (I'M 67YRS OLD TOO).
Felt like yesterday he was in his 20s but i didn't realise he was in his 60s. He looks bloody amazing!
love hearing the live versions. the embellishments on G3 Summer Song take it to another level.
It was fun to go see Satriani in Reno. He's real entertainment.
Yea Boy
Great Interview and a beautifull Guitar.
Satch is the Man. I remember MTV actually playing current music vids in the 80's and he was being interviewed when he had hair and was wearing a "Warlock" outfit and U2 Crap was all over the Airwaves and Joe mocked The Edge's "3 Chord Monty."
