    A lot of people say Nashville produces cookie cutter hits, but there is a reason they use these players. These guys are as good as it gets. They are utterly amazing and thats why they are AAA scale players making the big session bucks. Man unbelievable!!!!!!

      The Blues would have been better if he turned off the cowboy effects. They were perfect for the head , but really killed the power of his great Blues playing. I agree he knocked the riffs out of the park, but a raw sound on the Blues stuff would have greatly improved the performance.- dirty dom

It's the most times theyve played together in a row so they were very tight and playing off each other VERY well. Brent Mason just can't hit a wrong note!

    These two guys are all rounders when it comes to playing. Country, Blues, and probably anything else you could throw at them. Vince once turned down an offer to play with Dire Straits. And here is the killer, if you are recording a country cd and you come from anywhere in the world these guys will actually do the guitar work on it for you. You send it away to them and they send it back with them playing on it. Cost a fortune most likely. Fantastic talented musicians.

I used to feel that way, I've stood beside and played with Tommy Emmanuel e.g. and I'm an amateur that wants to set my fingerboard on fire. Wrong attitude folks. These guys are phenomenal yes, but you need to practice and gain experience, you could do the same thing one day.

  • @Hearsticles
    @Hearsticles 7 років тому +3

    People sleep on Vince Gill's playing but he's masterful. He rarely full on shreds it, but he shows incredibly tasteful restraint. Every note is perfectly chosen. Great with bends too -- reminds me a lot of Don Felder. He can rip it as well as anyone, as I'm sure anyone who has seen him play a lot of guitar knows, but what sets him apart is how he chooses to play. He's a true master of knowing what notes to play and when, kind of like Billy Gibbons.
