I was lucky enough to see Bereli in about 1982 in Stuttgart when he was just a kid..he was acompanied by his brothers..all wearing workers hats and smoking on stage!..It was a magical evening I've never forgotten.
Bireli was slouched back in chair relaxing while Rosenberg solos...the he straightened up and ripped his solo. Rosenberg is a monster playing that manolo style guitar so fast and clean.
So goddamned great! THIS, my fellow guitarplayers, is truly among the most difficult style of playing around... Im in AWE! Nais tuke, dja devlesa mire pralas! Dja devlesa! :D
Very smooth, I don't know if it's the sound man who set the levels so perfect that it could go right onto a CD, or the musicians playing so well, perhaps both. Excellent job!
Having said that, this is really an historic performance, and I think that even Corea would recommend it as the best of interpretations of his composing
From 2:50 to 3:00 is a fantastic triplet arpeggio played outside and against the chords that somehow works so good it just kills. Birelli cooks hard and fast on this Chick Corea song.
Please Humans !! Music is meant to Unite people !!!! leave your Egos outside, Please!!!! I love Birelli he is mi favorit but I also love The Rosenberg trio, Dubare, Luc ... and all Birelli's company. They are friends for God's shake!!!!Lets enjoy the beauty they are giving to us and be a part of it all!
omg, I know Spain in different versions but This is amazing. Birelli solo...what can I said. Listen Guthrie Govan Spain version. Incredible too ( other style obviously)
I love Light as a Feather, great album. You're Everything, Captain Marvel, 500 Miles High, and Spain are simply amazing songs - especially the latter two. It's pretty awesome to watch these guys. They sure can play! Proof that hammer-ons and pull-offs are more interesting than plain shred.
Bireli´s solo is awesome - sounds like one by George Benson -> his California Dreaming version (for those who dont know - very very relaxing song!) it is so impressing how fluent and emotional they play - they truly manage it to let a guitar sing, awesome
Bireli never gets lost. I've been playing guitar for over 40 years and I've never heard anyone, ever, like this player -- he knows his way around the instrument better than most of us guys know our cocks. It's a higher target to aim for I guess..
We've come to expect the awesome fireworks from Lagrene and Rosenberg, but there is no mention of the rhythm guitarist or the bassist. Those two guys are awesome as well.
@chillichomper Yup. Chick Corea off Return to Forever's "Light As A Feather" album was the first appearance I think. It's become a modern Jazz standard by now though with quite a lot of people covering it but mostly guitarists since it's very flamenco influenced & the perfect vehicle for melodic soloing.
I love it when the gypsies play out of the traditional QHCF repertoire. I'd like to see Bireli with Bela Fleck and Chick Corea (the author of this tune) come WB! Get it done.
I been playing and teaching guitar for a long time and it so idiotic to say who's the best. Sylvain Luk was onstage too and he's no slouch. I like all these guys a lot Bireli, Stochelo, Slvain, Pat Matino, Larry Coryell etc. Any one of them or more could be considered to be "one of the best ever" but's it's all what you like or what rings your bell. I'm on a lifetime quest to see how good I can be but don't think I could ever be as good as these guys, but as long as my hands work I'll try.
@jan1080 IOW, fretting and picking is technically more demanding on acoustic guitars, while keeping a clean tone without noise is harder with distortion. I love using distortion btw. Squeals are fun, hahah.
@SAK47RAMENTO Distortion (pedals anyway) adds compression, which in turn covers up the articulation and technique of the player. Some pedals manage to compress in a very natural way, and make it sound organic. Now, I will say, people that play distorted AMPS have a lot of talent. Cranking up a Marshall or the like creates a much more organic, and in turn, unforgiving, overdrive. I will agree though, the best are the ones that play articulately and cleanly in either situation.
You're right. This idea that the top of the mountain can hold only one person is ridiculous. There's room for many, even folks who never receive an ounce of notoriety.
I'll add to my previous comment.. I was such a Django freak in those days..I was only a kid myself..what divided me from my "electric" friends was my love of jazz..Gypsy guitar jazz... did any budding guitarist see the lightning finger work?..makes shredders look like hacks eh?..God i wih I had an ounce of that talent!
Possibly a Johnny Smith Model Gibson. After looking at the headstock, fretmarkers, single cut arch top, single pickup with volume & tone knobs on the pick guard etc. That's what it looks like he's playing. Anyone have any other thoughts?
@edushreds . . . I'm pretty sure I made very clear in my argument that I play both. . . And my 32nd note runs sound like shit clean, but passable when they are compressed and distorted and maimed.
@edushreds That really depends on the amp etc. Tube amps usually require more technical finesse (in my experience) than solid states. They just naturally have more mids, I guess. Regardless, distortion makes it easier to get strings ringing, noise, feedback etc, if you can't mute properly or use really wide motions when you pick. However, miss three notes in a 20-note triplet run at fast speeds, and you will hardly hear it on a distorted guitar. I prefer legato on electric guitars anyways :P
I've seen this video about fifty times recently, and everytime Bireli starts with that solo I close my eyes and forget about all my problems...
No effects, no pyrotechnics, no loops, no auto-tune just straight ahead raw talent in your face!
That strum pattern hard af that fast
In this song, it's Nous'che's perfect rhythm playing that gives the unique atmosphere. Insane rhythm!
That rhythm guitar player is inside such control on volume and rhythm
The manouche guys take rhythm guitar very seriously!
stocholo is the underdog always and when his solo comes he kills it ..hes the man
The guy that impresses me the most is the rythm guitarist! Listen to that beat!
Yes dude, great line up!!
Stochelo Rosenberg (Lead Guitar)
Yogi Bear (Lead Guitar)
Charlie Sheen (Rhythm Guitar)
Robert De Niro (Contrabass)
ROBERT DE NIRO AHAHAHAHAHA
Puercorpse .And you ➡Timmy ( South Park)...
LMAO!
that's incredible, not only the soloing but listen to how fast that rhythm guitarist is playing
i love all the charlie parker licks bireli throws in there . this guy is next next level
Wow !!!!!!!
Pure Talents and beautiful music !!!
II really adore this song. What a serious pace. Brilliant. Thank you so much for posting.
Bireli plays so fast, but his sounds stays pure, amazing
that rhythm player is amazing!
I was lucky enough to see Bereli in about 1982 in Stuttgart when he was just a kid..he was acompanied by his brothers..all wearing workers hats and smoking on stage!..It was a magical evening I've never forgotten.

Bireli was slouched back in chair relaxing while Rosenberg solos...the he straightened up and ripped his solo.

This is an awesome interpretation. Love it!
Tear!

Oh, this is absolutely awesome.
i heard bireli , when he was 13 !! he was brilliant , already....he HAS improved... ;-)
Very smooth, I don't know if it's the sound man who set the levels so perfect that it could go right onto a CD, or the musicians playing so well, perhaps both. Excellent job!
Unbelievable. The best version yet!
Un rayon de soleil, par ce temps .../
Bireli est juste magique. :-)
Having said that, this is really an historic performance, and I think that even Corea would recommend it as the best of interpretations of his composing
Awesome!

I think it is just great.
Che solo che tira Birelì...da apnea...bellissimo.

I think it's fantastic! Really pulls in a lot of that Spanish vibe...
Please Humans !! Music is meant to Unite people !!!! leave your Egos outside, Please!!!!
I love Birelli he is mi favorit but I also love The Rosenberg trio, Dubare, Luc ... and all Birelli's company.
They are friends for God's shake!!!!Lets enjoy the beauty they are giving to us and be a part of it all!
i am absolutley speechless
omg, I know Spain in different versions but This is amazing. Birelli solo...what can I said. Listen Guthrie Govan Spain version. Incredible too ( other style obviously)
hell yea they did
Yessss
great

Stochelo is on freaking fire!!!
Wow! Bravo!!!
Bireli´s solo is awesome - sounds like one by George Benson -> his California Dreaming version (for those who dont know - very very relaxing song!)
it is so impressing how fluent and emotional they play - they truly manage it to let a guitar sing, awesome
Bireli never gets lost. I've been playing guitar for over 40 years and I've never heard anyone, ever, like this player -- he knows his way around the instrument better than most of us guys know our cocks.
It's a higher target to aim for I guess..
Loool
Stochelo Rosenberg nacio solo 8 dias antes que yo.saludos desde Argentina.
We've come to expect the awesome fireworks from Lagrene and Rosenberg, but there is no mention of the rhythm guitarist or the bassist. Those two guys are awesome as well.
jazz manouche lo mejor de lo mejor !
😯👏🏆✌️
@chillichomper Yup. Chick Corea off Return to Forever's "Light As A Feather" album was the first appearance I think.

Haha! trust these guys to take a killer tune and speed it up even more, incredible!
I love it when the gypsies play out of the traditional QHCF repertoire. I'd like to see Bireli with Bela Fleck and Chick Corea (the author of this tune) come WB! Get it done.
@wesman0120 The fast sort, with ultra quick neuromuscular connections and the optional sub-micron accuracy...
@krissjr
the piece is from the fusion dude himself, chick corea.
Haha, great demented ending ;)
Great players, great music, indeed.
:O wow
I been playing and teaching guitar for a long time and it so idiotic to say who's the best. Sylvain Luk was onstage too and he's no slouch.

Euk Euk!🤘
Swing masters
daaaaaaaaah... i just saw a video of him playing violin
Yeah there are sitting two of 10 bests guitar players in whole world, write an e-mail to them, give them a lesson.
This shit is so fluid. 🔥
Brillant job.I want them in my gypsy kings band.

les meilleurs guitariste manouche reuni terrible les mecs
@edushreds . . . I'm pretty sure I made very clear in my argument that I play both. . . And my 32nd note runs sound like shit clean, but passable when they are compressed and distorted and maimed.
@andrenuk talent is french for hardwork, practice and dedication.
this is by far the fastest version ive ever heard
beautiful. Specially the part where Stochelo starts his solo at 3:26
@edushreds That really depends on the amp etc. Tube amps usually require more technical finesse (in my experience) than solid states. They just naturally have more mids, I guess.

haha great ending!
inanılmaz
Stochelo killed the song!
Birelli dieu vivant de la guitare jazz
@hellookelly yes, but still maybe 50%50
For you...
