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.

@@widehotep9257 Fortunately for Vai, he was blessed with a few more years to develop that tone & style. Jason had all this going on at 16…….just imagine….
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.
The best part, he was smiling :) I hope everyone doesn’t get lost in becoming the worlds greatest musician to the point where they forget to be happy about music.
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.
Seriously. He was able to cultivate all of that extreme potential so young from having a supportive environment and opportunity to practice as often and even as loud as he did. I really think he's probably the best guitarist to walk the earth.
He was 17yo here.. im 17yo now, he is such a influence and inspiration to me and many other guitarists. I'm currently writing songs for an EP that i might finish this year.
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.
Ahhh Jason, you wickedly intense badass! I miss his superhuman fretwork pyrotechnics like nothing else...but we still have his beautifully musical mind and soul in this world, that's still a win in my book!
Witnessing the Cinéma Vérité of Jason Becker absolutely ripping the tone out of a cool gumdrop red Marshall with massive natural talent is overwhelming. This time capsule is seriously inspirational, thanks for the upload!
He's like 17 here maybe? in 3 years he's getting ALS and in another 2 maybe... he's done with guitar. They need to figure out what is causing it so they can try to correct it.
+vomitedshit He's gone longer than most with ALS (of course being famous helped). AND having intelligent parents helped tremendously. How can doctors not examine ALS people to find out WHAT is different from a normal person and then fix the shit? I'd be doing muscle biopsies and looking at all the neurological enzymes and hormones and finding what is off and then giving him a supplement of that or suppressing what is too high.
+Cavalry he was born in '69 ( same year as Buckethead, interestingly enough ) so either 16 or 17. Pretty impressive.... to be able to carry on at that speed for that long without any glaring errors... I would be *thrilled* to have that kind of a session, and I'm 22....
+TruthSurge About 2 weeks ago they announced that they have discovered that it is a protein that is somehow causing ALS and they fully believe that they will be able to fix it. If you do a search I'm sure you''ll find the news story in which the scientists make the announcement. It's great news!
+Pegleg metalhead I hope that is true. Man, wouldn't it be insane if they could actually CURE JB? and anyone else (and not gouge them in the process). He would have a LONG road of rehab. Probably at least 5 years before he was fully going, I'd bet. But that's a short time compared to how long he's sat motionless just waiting and watching. I hope he can get in on the ground floor and get his mobility back.
I think Jason could be 16 or 17 at that time you can see his great tecnique for that age but his phrashing wasn´t too good, but only two years later in 1988 you see his incredible progresion his phrasing was amazing, i cant wait for his new album i think is going to be release on december 7
he was always just noodling in front of his friend lol, Jason was already Classically trained by this point go listen to his tapes from when he was even younger ahaha
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.
He is indeed a True Prodigy! I know he would exceed Satch and Vai. Even give Yngwie a run for his money. Jason Becker is and will Always be amazing to me. AIR is the most Beautiful compilation in my Ears. ❤
saw this in 2014 with guitar in hand, gave up temporarily and practiced. Re-watched this with guitar in hand tonight. I am now selling my gear lol.....

No guitarist ever can come close to Jasons level.Just imagine if Jason was still in a condition yo play today.He would have literally been way above the other guitarists out there.
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.
@@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.
Loved him so deeply that he gave him a burning passion and an unrelenting work ethic to improve himself and contribute to the world of music, all just so that he could be robbed of his ability to do so at just 19, and no matter how much he loved music or how hard he tried to play, his fingers wouldn't move, and eventually his entire body, slowly being crippled by a disease that robs him of his ability to do the thing he loved more than anything in the world. Your god is a cunt.
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:)
Jason Becker is one of the biggest “What Ifs” in rock history. I would put a 16-17 year old Jason Becker against any guitar player.
Same thing with Chris Olivia. Had he not been killed by a drunk driver no telling where he could have went.
But that's a storey for another......WHAT IF
Honestly i think he could of ben the best 1986 n he was doin that sorry eddie van halen but this dude is somthing else
He is fast.. just it
@@scorpionmk6695 He's got much more dynamics than just playing fast. Listen to Temple of The Absured.
He just blew away vai, satriani, malmsteen and van halen and then gives that little grin at the end. Pure genius. What an awesome force!!!

Same! Fucking glad it did!! Learning some of his stuff taking my ability to the next level
Shame shame shame
Viciously aggressive and accurate picking. Love Jason's tone too.
just remember he is just fooling around here, this is him toying with his guitar.
Music isn't a competition, but, Jason Becker is the most gifted guitar player that's ever lived.
+Mike MNM at least one of them
+Mike MNM agree. I even think his guitar playing skill here is far surpassing Yngwie
music is not a competition, but he won.
Coming from a die-hard Eddie fan, he's best

Jason was definitely one of the all-time best guitar shredders of all time. His dexterity was amazing. It's so incredible that he is still composing music despite having that evil medical condition ALS. He's an incredible guy for sure!
