The harmony, the ornaments, the time feel, the vibrato, the low gain with the single coil and those dynamics... Just one of the most expressive guitar players I've never listened to.
Bond is a rich, shifty and selfish character. He is hedonist, which could have a normal Way... But he does IT while everybody should die, who dont serves England (the UK). For me its annak arrogant idol of anglo-saxon imperialism, like CIA agents mostly also ín films...
Hey Nick !I do have 'A Sick and Injured Brain', had a stroke last January and since that episode, can't play guitar anymore (been playing it for 40+years). So, it is a pleasure seeing and hearing someone still doing it. Thank you for sharing! ps Also got rid of my beloved Strat ( American Standard Deluxe), can't play it anymore..Always been a fan of the single coil sound. Keep up the good work!
Cody Markley 1:31 is a descending whole tone scale. The other stuff he's playing is like the top part of the melodic minor scale, except he doesn't lower the seventh like you would expect him to on the way down.
Raff e Ell .... If your sure, either way, such a sweet player. like come on, I don't think anyone out there, even Guthrie, let's the composition direct the flow. someone said it on here he is gilmourish in a way.
Just saw this on "Guitar Gods" t.v. show, and immediately bought it on iTunes. What a fantastic track ! Never heard of this guy before but I'm instantly a fan. Beautiful feel and tone, incredible playing.
NICK JOHNSTON should give a class along with ANDY TIMMONS on how crucial it is to use the "selector switch" with tasteful phrasing. Although the solo starting a 3:38 is not long and flashy,but it has so much to say. Especially with the tonal changes and smooth overdrive. Mr. Johnston went to work on this one!
I had an overdose, even though I'm not an addict, during a night out. Nick helped me go through the worst time of my life by simply expressing his mode at the time ❤
The first listen I gave to the album was fast and I didn't heard something interesting... BUT after listening to it again.. and again.. and again (it has been my partner in the last year while traveling) I've been seeing all the details, the magnifique composition, dynamics, tone... Fav guitar player ever
I can't be more honest, I've been listening to this for I don't know how many times per day lately, I'm so lost and in love with this song, I wish you were more famous, the remarkably album is by far my fav of them all them albums, keep up the great work, Love this pieace man JUST LOVE IT, so passionate, there's something in it that keeps me wanting to listen to it continuously, can't describe my feelings, GODLIKE tune. greets from Iran.
Nick knows melody, tone, emotion and feel better than most rock guitarists on the planet right now. Way to go Nick - humanity needs more of the beauty that you so readily represent. Thanks for sharing.
Omg that melody!!! Your playing is always amazing but I get more and more impressed with the melodies you put together and your use of light and dark. Really hits me. Fantastic job Nick!!!
Não sei dizer, mas essa música me contagia de uma forma tão boa que meus olhos se enchem de lágrimas e meu coração fica calmo. Obrigado por isso Johnston I can't say, but this song infects me in such a good way that my eyes fill with tears and my heart is calm. Thanks for that Johnston
This fellow has no bad music, how fucking awesomely beautiful are h7s compositions and his playing. Where have you been Nick? I'm glad I found you & will be buying your music, and for our a sake, please keep playing performing & composing, - awesome music, true artistry.
This is awesome, lovely playing by everyone involved. I adore Lukes piano playing and between you and gavin harrison, It cant go wrong. Great stuff guys!
Gz, Nick! This year I'm feeling completely hypnotized for your sound! Now you sound amazing in all the ways, timbre, theme, shred and personality! Thanks for shared this beautiful music and lovely job! Keep on rock my friend! Hugs! Sucess! Peace!
I don't get why whatching you play is so damn satisfying! Your playing is soo smooth, it seems so natural and this drives me crazy!! Awesome, remarkably awesome :D Keep going man, love your work and i hope to see you (in Italy) live one day. P.s. Your signature schecter is DOPE!
Such a beautiful piece there!! Great dexterity on the guitar playing super nice phrasing. 👍🎸😍 Somehow this song and piece makes me feel like I'm watching Dream Theatre. Keep up the great work Nick! 😀
the only thing that would make this better his him having the beard back. it suits him well. love the music tho. cant wait for his new signature to come out in 2019. I need one!
Amazing Nick! There are so many good players out there, but you're first of all a musician, and that puts you in another level. Sometimes you remind me Andy Timmons (YES!) with your gentle, accurate phrasing, deep tone and speed-melody bursts while staying cool without acting any stupid jestures snd funny faces... :-) Looking fwd to seeing you in TLV on Friday. Best wishes from Isrsel!
The harmony, the ornaments, the time feel, the vibrato, the low gain with the single coil and those dynamics... Just one of the most expressive guitar players I've never listened to.
Jdime lee goku couldn't agree more. No one else out there is this expressive. Love his playing but his writing is really second to none.
Putting in some serious work on this tune! Low gain, selector switch magic!
Well why dont u listen then
i wish i could sing my songs..., and some covers too...
Thanks for the amazing support, guys! :-) Please consider grabbing the backing tracks for this album - nickjohnstonmusic.com/backing-tracks
Already got them :)
Nick sorry for the silly question but who are the guys in the monitor? I Think the one is Malcolm Xmas. Isn't he?
i got them!! sounds insane!!
I will definitely get them tomorrow
there are thousand of guitarist who can shred but only few who can composed beautifully... and Nick Johnston is among the few.
Bleeeh boringgg.
Blessed be the day I discovered you Nick...
Who else agrees Nick should write the next Bond theme song?
this better happen!
I think he can write soundtrack for any movie.
Bond is a rich, shifty and selfish character. He is hedonist, which could have a normal Way... But he does IT while everybody should die, who dont serves England (the UK). For me its annak arrogant idol of anglo-saxon imperialism, like CIA agents mostly also ín films...
I think he could also use his song titles as plots:
James Bond In A Locked Room On The Moon
James Bond and the Sick and Injured Mind
@@sandordorgicse4120 I agree that Federico Fellinis flicks are getting thin as a Lizzy, so lets go to sleep all together...!
He is not playing , he is actually talking with his guitar. He is expressing his feelings beautifully....

Sorry. Hope you are ok now. Mmm.. Dirty tricks from life.
@@claudiocruzat8777 thank you for your kind words. Take care.
love how every song follows a central theme and how you come back to it in different ways.
He reminds me a lot of Mark Knopfler. The control, the phrasing, the effortlessness.
Probably one of the most tasteful uses of the whole tone scale in electric guitar playing. I love it
Raff e Ell I believe it's something else his 2nd is flattened.
Raff e Ell like a Neapolitan minor scale.
Cody Markley 1:31 is a descending whole tone scale. The other stuff he's playing is like the top part of the melodic minor scale, except he doesn't lower the seventh like you would expect him to on the way down.

I believe the best way to describe a player like this is how many have described Wayne shorter, he is a listening player.
This guy has great feel. Something you can't easily find in todays guitar players.
Feel is subjective
Damn right.
this man makes the best music I’ve heard in a long time. I don’t know how he finds all of these great sets either!
so simple yet so genius. Those melodies are just amazing.
Just saw this on "Guitar Gods" t.v. show, and immediately bought it on iTunes. What a fantastic track ! Never heard of this guy before but I'm instantly a fan. Beautiful feel and tone, incredible playing.
Hope you bought the whole album. It's all this amazing!
amazing song !!!! Remarkably Human' s a masterpiece !!!!!
Tone and phrasing are outstanding. Stays just on the back of the beat to give a wonderful feel.
NICK JOHNSTON should give a class along with ANDY TIMMONS on how crucial it is to use the "selector switch" with tasteful phrasing. Although the solo starting a 3:38 is not long and flashy,but it has so much to say. Especially with the tonal changes and smooth overdrive. Mr. Johnston went to work on this one!
Love that tone!
A simple composition yet the complexity of the story.
Great sound! You have a new fan.
Regards from Portugal
How appropriate, I've been listening to this album all morning.
Love your music Nick!
Jason Bone me too

Most of his songs is like hits to me, i feel i listened them before
A guitar hero. A true guitar hero.

Early Phish 87
What a lovely piece of music! It reminds me a bit of some older Dream Theater Ballads.
This is awesome, lovely playing by everyone involved. I adore Lukes piano playing and between you and gavin harrison, It cant go wrong. Great stuff guys!
