      Jason Becker is another universe.
      That's him...............and then we can start countdown.
      Every modern Guitar player watching a 16 year old doing this would be envy of his talent.
      Jason knew he had the talent, and with intelligence, never stopped practicing, giving his live to his Guitar.
      No one will ever touch a Guitar with that grace and power mix in perfect sinergy.

      Fastest for sure, but it’s hard to compare him to say Jimi Hendrix or Stevie Ray Vaughn. What you hear are all kinds of influences in his playing, from Van Halen to Yngwie Malmsteen. He had yet to truly create his own unique sound at that point still.

      Tony S. compare their songs and then start talking . Jason was 14 or 15 here, what was malmsteem doing at 15 ? You guessed it right, trying to play chords and messing them up. Jason at 14 was better than ynwie could ever be technically and compositionally Jason has no competitors . In other words , he’s the best ever . Know that now or you’ll later on realise it when you mature musically.

    Awesome video! Watching Jason jam on his first real tube half stack at home. And that JCM 800 sounds killer with the master running it, even at this young age. You can see the Peavey Studio 40 he jammed on for years before getting his Marshall. You can see him ripping on that little amp at his high school in another video. I love how you can hear his Dad ask "Is that as loud as that thing will go?" Then Jason cranks it! One of the many reasons why Jason is a legend. Supportive parents! Parents, support your kids in their endeavors. They may wind up being a legend as well.

    For what it’s worth he accomplished more career wise and guitar skill wise in his very short time as a physical player than most anyone. If you took every virtuoso guitar player he’s definitely in the top one percent. I didn’t find out about Jason until the last year which kinda sucks because I stopped playing in bands a few years back and never even play anymore. I think if I would have found out about Jason early on I would have been a better player. I mean 20 years old with that much skill just doesn’t happen. It really still blows my mind that he could play so cleanly and so technical at blazing speeds. I know some dudes that can play fast like that but Jason had the feeling down and that’s just something you can never learn. I personally don’t have the feeling to be a shred player and never really had the desire to. I have feeling playing rhythm. I just could never imagine being able to play like Jason. It would take me a few lifetimes to accomplish what he did in 20 years.

    tremolo arm, floyd rose, who needs those if youre a softy with talent for music, gratefully alive, muchas gracias PabloPhony! I once listened aye Steve Vai instrumental album and I got soo bored..., anyroad ...( I play Yamaha Pacifica 112Vs tuned a whole octave lower and theyre doin just fine), I really dig Mr Steve V, but to listen to Jason Becker`s albums is for me like listening thousands of Joni Mitchells Albs in aye nanosecond...., now im gonna find aye tune called Slowburn... taken care by the whitcolts and musty neibors, Yours for now, K : ) psst: try luv yourself....

    Why did God have to punish us by giving Jason Becker ALS killing Randy Rhoads at 25 years old.... not fair how life can change. Jason becker. Was going to be the absolute biggest thing in the 90s so sad I cry when I think about Jason.

    He has some pretty nice compositions and some nice slow playing mixed in with his super fast runs. He shows that he can do both, and he has good tone on the bends. I think this is the best he can do at that time. He was really stretching out here and showing his entire bag of tricks. They probably had that camera lying around for when he was having a good day. Maybe the most able guitarist in the world, I don't know. Definitely one of the best I've seen and heard.

    From 3:57 to 4:17 sounds like a little section from Speed Metal Symphony. (Except without the tapping in the beginning of it) Always neat to find earlier segments of songs that aren't fully put together yet. Also I just found a part of this that is in Concerto! Its from 1:06 to 1:21. Pretty cool to see two segments from two Cacophony songs in this.

    • @MICKEYISLOWD
      @MICKEYISLOWD 7 років тому +8

      Sorry but Jasons playing here is rushed untidy and in parts quite out of control. He was at this point not even close to Yngwie in technique...In 1986 Yngwie was playing utterly flawlessly with incredible vibrato and only guys like Vinnie Moore, Macalpine and Greg Howe and a handful of others were comparable to Yngwie's jawdropping mastery of his style.
      Having said that Becker as we know went on to play to a very high level and wrote and co-wrote some of the best instrumental rock I have ever heard and Becker ranks in the top 10 for ability and writing original tunes. Saying Yngwie fans should check this out as though they will think again who is really the cats whiskers ect is a bit full of it IMHO:)

      @@mack4838 It sounds picked on the album too if you pay attention to the pick attack. And it does make sense since that is the kind of pattern Jason would precisely pick. But anyone can play how they like it, Jason did it his way, You can do it your way and add your own flavour to it.
