In this video, Marcus was at the Big House in Macon, GA, where the Allman Brothers Band lived together for a spell. It’s now a museum to the band. He’s actually playing Duane Allman’s ‘57 Goldtop, that Duane famously played on the Layla album. Marcus is the man!
I love how Michael gets so caught up in the music that he just can't help himself but to try and play something complimentary along with whatever he's listening to
With a voice similar to Janis Joplin in a lot a ways, and his killer guitar playing, he's one of my favorite artists, he's mastered the accompany of his singing by his brilliant use of chords shapes,stabs,single note lines,ect. so much to learn from every song he plays,his timing, touch,and dynamics are spot on, just an awesome player and singer.
Interesting you say that….I saw him a few yrs back in Charlotte, and I told my wife he sounds like Janis and makes runs like Stevie Wonder. I agree with you man, he’s frighteningly good.
When I first listened to Marcus King I drawn to his vocal sound and style. He is definitely an artist that you recognize as soon as he started singing.
Seen a lot of shows but standing ten feet from the edge of the stage in a half full theater watching this kid a couple years back was in the top five. Everything he does is phenomenal and his band was top notch too. So much soul in his playing and chord choices.
Micheal, your talent at breaking down very top notch playing is impressive and very helpful. I wish you continued success. Look forward to the next one
Michael it would be great to get a live reaction on what you just experienced right after you leave the show. I know you’ve listened to him a bit but man the whole live show is just next level mind-blowing, face-melting stuff. Every time I see MK live I feel like I’m witnessing music history go down. Very thankful to get to experience this during my lifetime.
Did someone notice the POLICE SIREN in the background when Marcus begins to sing ??? Maybe even when he says the word "pain" ??? This is adding heavy feelings on the song... IMHO. By the way, absolutely gorgeous song and of course hands down to Marcus King ;) Thank you Michael for helping us to understand... this is so useful when you need to move on...
Hey Mike, great vid. Small suggestion... throw the link to whatever video you are reviewing in the description! A lot of times I find myself watching your video, and then wanting to listen to the original all the way through after, would be great to have a link to the exact one you're watching!
NEED your reaction on Sin is a Good Man’s Brother by the Marcus King, it’s such a great cover of Grand Funk Railroad, I’m not sure if they were the originals to do it, but Mark Farner was a king!!
He sure is the real deal. Just been watching a bunch of videos of Marcus playing with Tedeschi Trucks Band. Derek never looks happier than when he's watching Marcus play, and to me that says it all!
Somehow got a ticket for the Saturday show and got to see the Trio while I had the night off in Baltimore. I’ve been obsessed for years, learned of him while going to Musicians Institute in 2015 but have never been able to see him live yet. Finally got to see him last night and it was as close to a religious experience I’ve ever had. Will not be the last time, but wow I’m still pretty shocked from that experience last night. You’re in for such a treat with full band tonight I wish I could make it 😭
half joking with my employer trying to book a flight back home to B'more from clearwater fl {during the southwest airline october suprise}...said its only 14hrs 3 min drive. We cant make the Sat show but have plenty of time for sunday...lol here we still sit preparing to fly by mon morning with a layover on a 2hr flight. Loving the intricacy of Marcus sound only from video captures at the beacon with TTB .. and go Michael with that energy to bring it on home with the treasure of understanding and teaching .
Pretty sure that was one of Duane Allmans guitars too. Marcus is awesome, hoping you do another one of his soon, Hopefully one of his older jazz jams. Jealous of your sunday!
Yeah and I'm glad someone took him to the side and told him to articulate his lyrics, even if it was himself that picked up on it... Couldn't understand a word he was singing in some of his live performances.
He's a great talent, one of a kind both vocally & his guitar chops. Rarely if ever does somebody come along with the total package like Marcus, that i believe we can all agree
I've been obsessed with Marcus King lately, just two days ago I went on a binge of all his good videos on youtube, and all your reactions to him. Sugaree was an absolute delight. Now seeing this in my feed makes me so happy. Rock and Marcus and rock on Michael, you guys are champs
Craziest thing about it is Marcus King was only 20 or 21 years old right here!!! It was the first video of his I saw and was hooked! Got to see him at the Tractor Tavern in Seattle and he put on a clinic for 2½hours!! Brought friends up to play and couldn't have been more humble and just a nice dude! Wish him all the success! And thank you Michael for the video and all your amazing talent! I'd love to hear/see more of you performing cuz you got it too brother!!
So happy I found your channel. Being a huge long time fan of Marcus just recently was trying to analyze this song (Dying) thinking WHY this C major 7 to A7 sounds so sweet here. Thanks for explanation Michael! I wish I was in Baltimore these days... Thanks again. Subscribed.
Thanks for reacting to my request Michael! I’m going to see Marcus in Nashville next week. If you needed anything else to get you pumped for the show (doubtful haha) or just want more killer musicianship, check out his cover of Superstar by The Carpenters. Thanks for all you do, these videos are great!
Awesome breakdown. Marcus does have a formal training in Jazz theory. He will throw some jazz bones while in blues mode. That makes him sound a little different that a lot of good guitar players!
I have said it before and I will again, Mr Palmisano, I love your breakdowns of songs like these, you literally make tunes like this doable to people like myself who just can't grasp theory and what I like to call adult chords lol. Your enthusiasm is infectious. (Maybe not the best descriptive I could have used in this day and time) but still the point like the groove remains. I know I don't post often but what I say in my comments i sincerely mean. Thank You for staying at it and sharing your hard earned knowledge. You're tops Brother
I got to meet Marcus year before last in Birmingham, AL. We were front stage. I could literally touch their speakers. Got to talk to him after the show. My wife even got a picture with his fiance. It was one of the best nights of my life. Super humble guy!
Love Marcus King. He’s got so much potential musically speaking. Marcus was discovered at a very well known Music Store- named Norman Rear guitars in California. He was 18 back then. One of the employees was perplexed by his guitar playing & vocals. Needless to say he opened a You Tube channel & had thousands of viewers. I love El Dorado album. I luckily met him. In Nashville and look forward seeing him in October for my birthday here in New Orleans. He is gonna be playing at The Filmore. Thanks for what you do. Very helpful for guitar students showing which chords to play.
I had never heard of Marcus, until I saw him opening for Chris Stapleton in MA a few weekends ago. Blew me AWAY. Promptly bought all his stuff. Reminds me a lot of Warren Haynes
I just discovered Marcus on this video and he’s very good! Nice choice of video,Mr. Palmisano! I have been following a kid from Australia named Taj Farrant. Marcus reminds me of him!
Great breakdown Michael! I recently passed on 2 chances to see him nearby on this tour with Stapleton. One at Oak Mountain Amphitheater in Pelham AL, the other at The Warf in Gulf Shores the next night, both great venues. Deal Breaker? Tickets were $325.00... Unreal!
To those who have never heard of Marcus need to check that man out. His lyrics, his voice, and his guitar playing are next level. Once you start listening to him you will👏🏻not👏🏻stop👏🏻
TRUTH - I am late to this party because I was born in the 60's and not really into the so called "music" nowadays - gimme Zeppelin, Skynyrd, Clapton, SRV any day of the week but came across this (thank you Michael) and this guy has "it" period. I'm now a huge Marcus fan!
The 6th is the 3rd in your 4 Chord! Brilliant Imma always remember that now… Let me say great ride through that! Let’s not forget to Mention Marcus absolutely incredible vocals on this track! ❤️🎸
Going out of my way from South Florida to see Stapleton in Memphis on his tour, just because MKB is the opening act (he is not the opener for the shows down here unfortunately). Probably my favorite current artist. So talented and has a great band with with him too!
Tons of guys have chops, killer chops, but guys like Marcus, Josh Smith, [Bloomfield(!) decades ago] have vocabularies. Their story-telling with the same 12-notes we all have access to is inimitable. Clapton could just turn blues-phrases inside-,out; that's why he was 'God.' Marcus is in that pantheon of greatness. Only gonna get better...
@Michael Palmisano Thanks for another killer breakdown and exposing us to incredible musicianship! I learned about Marcus through your earlier reactions and was thrilled when I found out that he was opening for Chris Stapleton last Saturday for a show I bought tickets for a while back. Marcus’s way of playing fiery blues licks and also playing through chord changes is outstanding. He rocked his signature ES-345, a Tele, and a Les Paul Custom through an Orange Rockerverb 50 and Super Reverb head like he was the baddest guitarist ever. You’re gonna love seeing him live!
Marcus himself has said "whoever said I said I was a Blues guitarist?" He doesnt want to be pigeon-holed into just 1 genre. Allow him to be an Americana Roots musician which includes Blues,Country,Soul,Jazz,Rock,etc... I believe he'll surprise us in the future if given the opportunity.
I discovered this guy through one of your other videos, red wine and flowers or something like that, haven't stopped listening to him since - amazing player and comes across as a really nice guy in interviews
Was great meeting Michael at the Marcus King show in Baltimore last night! It was the BEST live performance I think I’ve ever seen. We talked about the pocket… well this band is in the pocket the entire set. You can actually hear the non verbal communication between the band mates. The conversation between them allows Marcus to just go off on an entirely new level!
Michael, Why (and forgive me!),,,Why is the F# with the A below it not considered a 1,5,1 octave with a minor 3rd below it all? 6:50 Love the channel!Thanks for being awesome Man!!
Love Marcus. I've always thought of him as one of this generation's great front men who shines as a band leader. In my mind, he's more comparable to Terry Kath than anyone else, although he's already two years older than Terry when Chicago Transit Authority was released.
Michael, your excitement and willingness to express how awesome this guy is means so much to me personally!!! You both are amazing and I thank you for this moment to learn and be a part of it!! Best channel on UA-cam belongs to you sir!! WOW!!! and I'm just a drummer!!!!
when you say the 3rd gives us the function . I agree but then explain the theory behind the dominant 7 chord. 1 b3 5 b7. surely that tells us both major and minor pen ( so therefore dorian and mixolydian) also work. the 3rd (for me) dictates( i agree) unless we are dominant
These guys just keep coming up through the mud like they always have. Despite the times. Popular culture. I'd have dug it 50 years ago, man. Maybe I can die in peace with a few more like this.
Saw him 9/28 in a small, tight venue. Went alone cause I just couldn’t miss it. I’d go alone 10 more times if I had to! (I posted one of his solos from that night on my page - enjoy! 🌹)
Got to see him at a bar in Charleston in 2015 before he was big. My friend Bryan Holmes (drummer from The Producers, Kansas) shared a video and he was playing at my bar the next night. Super timing. Seen him several times since. He’s just amazing. And Warren Haynes produced his second album.
Michael, do you have a different PRS for every outfit & every day of the week? Every time I watch your vids your playing a different prs & I've seen quite a few videos!! Very impressed keep up the great work my friend!
I saw Chris Stapleton a couple of years ago and Marcus King opened for him. Had no idea who he was at the time. I remember I kept leaning over to my gf and saying to her "this dude is so fkn good. he is unbelievable on that guitar." Big fan now. Awesome video too Michael! Made me grab my guitar and play this along with y'all, as much as I could lol

I live in macon,ga and I posted a walk through tour of the big house museum👍
Marcus King is actually one of the greatest blues guitarist alive atm. Seen him cover SRV with absolute ease and slayed it.
"Best" is subjective. But he's my favorite right now.
@Topjunkie Not sure where you got the "GOAT status consideration". Dial it back, homeboy. King himself would laugh at you.
I love how Michael gets so caught up in the music that he just can't help himself but to try and play something complimentary along with whatever he's listening to
Michael Palmisano Is The Real Deal.
Agreed
Too true. Couldn't agree more. One of the "untold" greats. Like Jack Ruch.
Truest statement on all of UA-cam.
This guy’s energy is perfect, respect.
100%
With a voice similar to Janis Joplin in a lot a ways, and his killer guitar playing, he's one of my favorite artists, he's mastered the accompany of his singing by his brilliant use of chords shapes,stabs,single note lines,ect. so much to learn from every song he plays,his timing, touch,and dynamics are spot on, just an awesome player and singer.

Micheal, your talent at breaking down very top notch playing is impressive and very helpful. I wish you continued success. Look forward to the next one
He's an all-timer already, no if ands or buts...lucky to be alive while he graces us with music.
Michael it would be great to get a live reaction on what you just experienced right after you leave the show.

Pretty sure that was one of Duane Allmans guitars too. Marcus is awesome, hoping you do another one of his soon, Hopefully one of his older jazz jams. Jealous of your sunday!
No wonder it has an ghostly kind of resonance to it. Ppl would say a pedal or otherwise, but nah lol
@@nxcess9046 Yep, its Duanes guitar. This was shot at the Allmans museum in Georgia
@@mikefields4136 The BIG House in Macon, GA! That place is full of magic!
I believe this was filmed at the Big House museum in Macon and he's playing Duane's gold top.
I've been looking for a breakdown of this for ages.Michael always delivers!
Thanks for this Michael, now 4 hrs into a Marcus K binge ….. amazing, hope you enjoy the gig
! My god, what a voice, and those licks /locks!
Marcus King's voice is incredible. I'd put it over his guitar playing...and his guitar playing is effing fantastic!!! Brother has serious soul!!!!
Yeah and I'm glad someone took him to the side and told him to articulate his lyrics, even if it was himself that picked up on it... Couldn't understand a word he was singing in some of his live performances.
He's a great talent, one of a kind both vocally & his guitar chops. Rarely if ever does somebody come along with the total package like Marcus, that i believe we can all agree

Did you see his acoustic mini-set for 'Front Row Boston'!? He does autumn rain and holy cow, wish it was cut and recorded
Marcus King, Kingfish Ingraham, Eric Gales, Joe B., and Josh Smith. Best in the game! As good as Marcus’ playing is, his voice is just as good!!
+Derek Trucks & Johnny Lang
Derek doesn't sing.
Saw him play one of his first gigs...shy, 12 yr. old kid in Atlanta...played Duane and Dickey like no problem
Or better …
michael you're like the grown up version of blues clues except we're looking for clues on legendary musicians
Craziest thing about it is Marcus King was only 20 or 21 years old right here!!! It was the first video of his I saw and was hooked! Got to see him at the Tractor Tavern in Seattle and he put on a clinic for 2½hours!! Brought friends up to play and couldn't have been more humble and just a nice dude! Wish him all the success!

Been waiting on this one for awhile.. my favorite Marcus King video I’ve seen. The last minute or two is just plain sick
So happy I found your channel. Being a huge long time fan of Marcus just recently was trying to analyze this song (Dying) thinking WHY this C major 7 to A7 sounds so sweet here. Thanks for explanation Michael! I wish I was in Baltimore these days... Thanks again. Subscribed.
It functions exactly like breathe from dsotm
@@M4TT4TT4CK just listened to 'breathe' again and yes! This is exactly it! Thanks!
YESSS! Been waiting for you to cover this one!
Thanks for reacting to my request Michael! I’m going to see Marcus in Nashville next week.

My favorite young guitar player. A serious beast with chops as good as any and a killer voice.
Hit you up on the tweeter and asked if you were going. Very glad that you are, wish I was going. Much respect Mr. Bundy.
Love Marcus King. He’s got so much potential musically speaking.
Marcus was discovered at a very well known Music Store- named Norman Rear guitars in California. He was 18 back then. One of the employees was perplexed by his guitar playing & vocals. Needless to say he opened a You Tube channel & had thousands of viewers.

I had never heard of Marcus, until I saw him opening for Chris Stapleton in MA a few weekends ago. Blew me AWAY. Promptly bought all his stuff. Reminds me a lot of Warren Haynes
Yes, you’re right Chris. It makes sense since Warren has taken Marcus under his wing and is showing him the ropes and guiding his career.
I just discovered Marcus on this video and he’s very good! Nice choice of video,Mr. Palmisano! I have been following a kid from Australia named Taj Farrant. Marcus reminds me of him!

You have to review the Marcus kind front row Boston video where he’s acoustic live. Really shows off his guitar playing
I had tickets to see him in concert in Auckland, New Zealand. And then Covid.
I like these videos, though I wish you'd link to the original in the description. lol
I've played with his Dad a few times, who's very good in his own right, he told me "check out my boy"......jaw dropped.
I believe that’s Duane Allmans goldtop at the big house museum in Macon. My wife and I saw them play a concert in the backyard of the big house.
If I wasn't watching him play a Les Paul there are times when I'd swear it was a Rhodes.
Came down here to say the same thing! The tone when he climbs the neck is other-worldy.
Spot on comment, Clark !
That’s Duane Allmans gold top
Right! The only other player I've known to possess that quality is Matt Stevens.
Tons of guys have chops, killer chops, but guys like Marcus, Josh Smith, [Bloomfield(!) decades ago] have vocabularies. Their story-telling with the same 12-notes we all have access to is inimitable. Clapton could just turn blues-phrases inside-,out; that's why he was 'God.'
Marcus is in that pantheon of greatness. Only gonna get better...
I love when you get all excited explaining theory and then you go all rain man and slap your knee. Its pure joy.
@Michael Palmisano Thanks for another killer breakdown and exposing us to incredible musicianship! I learned about Marcus through your earlier reactions and was thrilled when I found out that he was opening for Chris Stapleton last Saturday for a show I bought tickets for a while back. Marcus’s way of playing fiery blues licks and also playing through chord changes is outstanding.

My man you missed an amazing show last night. See you there tonight for full band
Thank you soooo much Michael for this channel!! Love this, you’re so unselfish and willing to share great players with the world, incredible 🤘🤘🤘
This is amazingly helpful. Thank you my brother!
I’m going to the show tonight (Saturday)! Very excited
Marcus himself has said "whoever said I said I was a Blues guitarist?" He doesnt want to be pigeon-holed into just 1 genre. Allow him to be an Americana Roots musician which includes Blues,Country,Soul,Jazz,Rock,etc... I believe he'll surprise us in the future if given the opportunity.
I get to see Marcus open for Stapleton in Memphis in December and I get to see Buddy guy and Kingfish tn! Love the vid!!!
I discovered this guy through one of your other videos, red wine and flowers or something like that, haven't stopped listening to him since - amazing player and comes across as a really nice guy in interviews
Was great meeting Michael at the Marcus King show in Baltimore last night! It was the BEST live performance I think I’ve ever seen. We talked about the pocket… well this band is in the pocket the entire set. You can actually hear the non verbal communication between the band mates. The conversation between them allows Marcus to just go off on an entirely new level!
You're amazing.....do you do private lessons ?
Michael, Why (and forgive me!),,,Why is the F# with the A below it not considered a 1,5,1 octave with a minor 3rd below it all? 6:50 Love the channel!Thanks for being awesome Man!!
The Marcus King Band played my hometowns spring festival (called Come See Me) in '05 or '6. It was awesome. I got a 👕.
Love Marcus. I've always thought of him as one of this generation's great front men who shines as a band leader. In my mind, he's more comparable to Terry Kath than anyone else, although he's already two years older than Terry when Chicago Transit Authority was released.
Maple neck sounds and looks great!
Man this is what I needed on a Monday!!! Yes sir!
Michael, your excitement and willingness to express how awesome this guy is means so much to me personally!!! You both are amazing and I thank you for this moment to learn and be a part of it!! Best channel on UA-cam belongs to you sir!! WOW!!!
and I'm just a drummer!!!!
when you say the 3rd gives us the function . I agree but then explain the theory behind the dominant 7 chord. 1 b3 5 b7. surely that tells us both major and minor pen ( so therefore dorian and mixolydian) also work. the 3rd (for me) dictates( i agree) unless we are dominant
These guys just keep coming up through the mud like they always have. Despite the times. Popular culture. I'd have dug it 50 years ago, man. Maybe I can die in peace with a few more like this.
Pretty sure that’s Duane Allman’s gold top!
Cmaj7 plus the A in the same Pattern as Marcus used is exactly, Incubus's pre chorus for their song Drive.
Btw great channel love your intros!
That CM7 to A7 phrase reminded me a bit like a part from Incubus song Drive , the one that ultimately ends the song
Believe he's playing Duane Allman's Goldtop at the Allman Brothers' Big House in Macon, GA.
Saw him 9/28 in a small, tight venue. Went alone cause I just couldn’t miss it. I’d go alone 10 more times if I had to!
(I posted one of his solos from that night on my page - enjoy! 🌹)
That's Greg Allmans goldtop he's playing at the big house in goegia by the way. Legendary guitar.
Still love that Gibson 345 He’s playing a 58’ black beauty a lot now
Got to see him at a bar in Charleston in 2015 before he was big. My friend Bryan Holmes (drummer from The Producers, Kansas) shared a video and he was playing at my bar the next night. Super timing. Seen him several times since. He’s just amazing. And Warren Haynes produced his second album.
Hope all worked out and you got to the show. He is indeed amazing. And we love it when you talk that guitar talk. 💕🙋🎶🎸
Love when Michael says "tasty". Thanks for the video. Love Marcus!!
I mean, this dude is unbelievable. I feel like he’s just making up his own chords at this point!
Absolutely right?? It's amazing what you can do with 5 notes and 3 chords!
Listening to this with headphones is divine. Beautiful separation in the recording.
I seeing Marcus King AND Chris Stapleton next weekend in South Dakota. Two of my favorite singer/bands together at the same time. My year is made.
If I’m not mistaken that’s Duane Allman’s Goldtop Les Paul at the Big House Museum
Michael, do you have a different PRS for every outfit & every day of the week? Every time I watch your vids your playing a different prs & I've seen quite a few videos!! Very impressed keep up the great work my friend!
Ha! I do have a bunch on loaner. PRS is awesome and let me try out basically everything. It’s beyond awesome, really.
Ive watched this so so many times simply because it means i can enjoy a 3min song over 17minutes. haha
“Ok, broad strokes, not note for note”….proceeds to expertly breakdown the function of each note combination. ❤
Guys a maverick. Nice breakdown my good man 😎
You're a musical genius, brother!
“It’s like wrong to play with him” 😂 that had me laughing out loud Michael. Lol.
Saw him at the 9:30 club a couple years ago. He puts on a killer show. You could tell the crowd was filled with guitar geeks in awe of his skills.
I saw Chris Stapleton a couple of years ago and Marcus King opened for him. Had no idea who he was at the time. I remember I kept leaning over to my gf and saying to her "this dude is so fkn good. he is unbelievable on that guitar." Big fan now. Awesome video too Michael! Made me grab my guitar and play this along with y'all, as much as I could lol
He happens to be playing Duane Allman's gold top at Allman Brothers Band Museum at the Big House in Macon, Georgia.
Was at the Saturday show

"A shot across the bow", aka. Just want to let you know I am here. I just love it when you get philosophical.
I could definitely play bass with you sometime....
Was in NY this Friday - Saturday and Marcus was playing a sold out Madison square garden…. Well deserved!
Michael! You need an Elmore Pedal so you don't have to keep taking your hands off the guitar to pause, play and rewind. May we send you one to test?
Yeah, It's like that for me too Michael... and I don't even play guitar!...👋😎👌
