    If you ever wondered, THIS is how it feels to be able to play ANYTHING you want...like ANYTHING.. MAB doesn't only have high technical ability....He has ALL the ability anyone would ever want on the instrument. Literally, all of it. So he can do exactly what he wants with it. No more, no less. "No boundaries" makes absolute sense here.

      @Mister E. Hendrix has inspired far more guitarists than Johnson, regardless of "who's better". Hendrix innovated and his rhythm playing is absolutely killer. Johnson is a great guitarist and should be revered, but play the general public a Hendrix song vs a Johnson song, and most people who prefer Hendrix. He just has this feel and groove that few can compete with. That being said, this is all opinion.

    In 1978, I opened up this album from this new band and put it on my turntable to play. My jaw hit the floor. You're performance here was stellar. Walks away from the computer screen with jaw dragging on the floor. I don't know if people realized this when watching you but, you just do not get to see guitarist of your caliber up close where you can watch each and every detail of their playing, fretting and picking, like this.

    I'm not easily impressed by much these days. I've been playing since I was a little kid. I gotta say, "I'm extremely impressed" ... and I'm not a rockstar by any means, but I've been teaching and studying everything 'string' my whole life, including violin. This is such a great, creative rendition. It inspired me bigtime. I love the alternating hand over neck stuff. It's a great visual, and I thought I had done everything I could possibly think of as far as guitar was concerned. Great tone too, precision, speed... and we are probably the same age. You have a new fan my brother. BOOM! ON POINT!

    • @michaelkeiffer5934
      @michaelkeiffer5934 4 роки тому

      I don't care for his playing, but I'll admit he did bring shredding to the masses. Everybody knows what a guitar shredder is regardless of what they listen to and they all know the name Eddie Van Halen. My thing is just that he always played the exact same way with the exact same upbeat, pop phrasing. He and Randy Rhoads were the first true shredders and both developed tapping at the same time completely on their own. Eddie did it with his middle finger and randy more rapidly with the edge of his pick. Randy was better and his playing over a few years showed more musical ability and equal if not better technical ability. He never got to live a full life having died at 22 years old. If he would have lived he would have developed and grown constantly as a guitarist. Never playing the same thing twice. Eddie Van Halen stopped developing the second they blew up and has just played the same shit for 40 years. Still does. He has been addicted to drugs at times where he couldn't pick up a guitar and play a single lick. He and randy are like a model and an athlete. They both look like the pinnacle of performance, but only one actually is
