Adrian Smith is soooooo underrated. I'm very happy that John mentioned him ♥
About time Maiden got some love on this channel
Absolutely agree, Adrian is one of the tastiest Hard Rock/ Metal players of all time. His solos have feel and are always in great contexts with the songs. He in my mind took Maiden to another level.
Adrian is outstanding, especially his work during the golden era of Iron Maiden the 1980's. Everything from his solos to his rhythm parts were drenched in feel and melody. I loved how he would bend chords and apply vibrato adding an emotional weight to the arrangements. He possessed (and still does) the ability to inject ear candy and hooks into Maiden's songs so tastefully. He also had an almost pop sensibility he brought to the band through his songwriting that made them stand out from the other metal acts of the time. While it's personal and subjective, when he left the band in 1990, I felt so much of the band's magic and chemistry left with him. In the studio albums that followed his departure, the band as a whole felt depleted of flow and next level class without him. It's no surprise when he and Bruce returned in 1999, the band returned to being a superpower in the metal world again.
Totally agree and adrian has a tremendous blues voice. I found out with ritchie kotzen. I was like « whao »
Nah Adrian is one of the best
What makes this such a fantastic video is that Rick is giving John, Tosin and Devin room to speak, and they are all giving each other room to speak. Ah, I'm just enjoying all Rick's interviews with guitar heroes so much at the moment.
That’s what happens when polite and courteous people get together. Refreshing.👍😎
My favorite bit is when Tosin, asked for his equivalent of Murray/Smith, is like "he's sitting right next to me bro"
Thank you Devin for mentioning Enya and watermark. As a metalhead guitar player that loves Lamb of God and Metallica, In Flames, etc one of my biggest influences I still listen to all the time is Enya. Breath of fresh air hearing that
Remember buying Watermark when it came out,I was listening to Maiden, Malmsteen, Satriani but absolutely loved Enya at the time.
Great to know that someone like Devin was into it as well.
Anything with a King's X mention in it is always welcome. They should have come up in your discussion about bands with second albums that were better than the first.
So happy DT mentioned King’s X. Those guys have their own thing and are hugely influential.
It is great how awesomeness can be so humble 😮
Adrian Smith a fantastic player who never really gets the credit he deserves
Adrian Smith is the bollocks. Totally underrated.
So funny to hear Devin talk about “the guy who plays it, but when you try to, it never sounds like that”. I was one of the engineers on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony this year, and myself and a counterpart looked at each other and said the same thing when Frampton started jammin’ at soundcheck. It was just awesome to be standing there hearing that.
A great interviewer does inspire not interrupt. Thank you.
These 3 are inspiring individuals! Excellent video!
rick beato your audio here is the best! close my eyes and I'm in the room
That is so cool hearing that they used Archetype Plini for their record
I love how all four gentlemen there are so humble. I also love for as technical as all four of them are and how vastly different they are, they all share such a love and flabbergasted wonder for Eddie Van Halen, as well. ❤
Devin is one musical genius whoa!
2:52 Yes youngsters! We didn't have UA-cam, and teachers were either hard to find or too expensive. We had to learn everything by ear or extremely poorly transcribed music. You have no idea how much easier it is to be a musician these days.
I had to use records. I got good ear training and learned phrases quickly because you had to keep lifting the needle and putting back constantly.
But being able to play by ear makes everything easier
I'm geeking out at these guys geeking out! 🫠
Liquid Tension Experiment!🔬
Awesome!
Tony Levin 👍
I love that Devon brought up Enya's Watermark. I must've listened to the song Exile like a billion times back in the day.
I started with "a day without rain" and couldn't stop from there. Enya is a magnificent human being.
Good Conversation with other other lovers of music/real musicians is endless fun .. Man can I go on a camping trip with these guys just nerd out .. !!!
This is pure gold.
love Devin's super diverse tastes
I’m so happy Devin of all people mentioned Kings X, amazing band
Same! I effin love Kings X, i think the only band i have seen as many times live is Clutch, maybe..
Devin says Enya and Metallica which is basically what Devin sounds like lol
I'd love to hear all four of them plug in and jam for us!
KK and Kings X! Rock on Devin! I want one of his new signature guitars soo bad! I hope to see some demos, im curious about the triple pick ups!
That is definitely a Star Chamber right there Rick, spot on.
I learned about wide vibratos using the same technique that John Petrucci talks about; except at the time, I was using some type of digital phrase trainer slowed down to 1/2 speed.
Dr. Know it’s amazing all three of them mentioned him 💫🎶🎵🎶🎵🤘🏼🎸📶📶📶
All 3 of these guys are legends imo, and Tosin's lead tone on Earth Departure remains my favorite metal lead tone of all time! For my ears that is just perfection!
drinking game! = every time Tosin says "like" you take a shot
Those DT production sounds will change a whooooooole lot on the next album now.
Cool that Jordan used a guitar plugin, but Jon Lord did the guitar amp thing 50 years ago... 😏
Adrian should give himself a pat on the shoulder ... And a round of applause from all of us...
😊🤘 favorite program john petrucci
I scroll down the comments and nobody talks about KK Downing. Firstly I was suprised Devin mention him from all of the guitarists, first indication, secondly nobody in the comments says smt. That is the definition of underated.
I'm the same w/ Petrucci on Adrian/Dave debate. They're both amazing but I gravitate more towards Adrians parts
Eddie riferimento per i grandissimi chitarristi! Mito
It makes such perfect sense that Devin was into Enya. His recent music sounds like Metallic Enya
Devin bringing up kings x was real cool. No one ever talks about their influence on the 90s.
I have used the Plini plug-in to record my Yamaha keyboard, and it sounded amazing through that
Christian Olde Wolbers, next? :)
Love neil schons , and george lynches vibtado
cool. EVH forever.
7:58
For me Tosin is right after Jimi and EVH. He is that important and game-changing.
You forget about Yngwie and Petrucci. And why I wouldn't include Tosin is that he alone would never fill a stadium. He is a genius but also very tiring
@@5150mili i do like me some YJM and Petrucci. They are derivatives of Hendrix tho, in the long run. Tosin absolutely would not fill stadiums but then again neither could Yngwie.
@@taunokekkonen5733 There was a time when Yngwie filled stadiums, at least in Japan in the 80s. Hendrix is nothing like Petrucci and although Yngwie recognizes Hendrix as one of his greatest influences when it came to starting to play the guitar, Yngwie developed his own style light years away from any guitarist, just like Eddie Van Halen did at the time.
Loud amps … It’s not “like a violent thing.” It IS a violent thing. Violent and nasty. That’s the beauty of it.
John 100% mentions Tony Iommi.
they all love Meshuggah i think
These three are literally The Divine Comedy.
Petrucci's shredding drags you to Hell.
Tosin is so complex, it's unfathomable Purgatory.
And Devin's echo delays opens up the Heavens.
Inferno. Purgatorio. Paradiso. They're even sat in the right order!
You know... Metallica .. Enya ,,, LOOOL Devin NEVER fails to impress
Meshuggah
What Tosin said about skipping over learning good vibrato early on is literally the curse of the modern beginner. Because UA-cam's making instruction so accessible, too many people are running before they've learned to walk. I'm looking at *you* Dragonforce...
Have a shot every time Tosin says "like". Good luck.
:)
Out of tune, out of time, mistake here or there, that's rock n roll, and that's what's missing now. As Tosin says, there's a certain energy from live and loud that you can't get sitting in front of studio monitors at a reasonable level.
Rock n roll is ..dare I say it...Organic!!!
Abasi is never out of tune, out of time or makes a mistake.
No mention of Allan Holdsworth?
Weird...
“Liked to party” means doing drugs right? For the non native speakers
LTE= 2 hairy + 2 bald = harmony
rudess wasn't bald at all, and Petrucci and portnoy had short hair at that time...
Increbile !!!!
