    By far this is the best all around of all the School of Rock teams. The rhythm is great, the horns are good, and the guitar player is seriously talented. I love seeing young people playing so well. I hope someone tells the guitar player to get serious and show off his talent somehow. He's really something, I hope he develops his talent and down the line we see him again. Maybe he'll be the next Jeff Beck.

    • @jorymil
      @jorymil 3 місяці тому

      Dunno about fortune. Maybe a couple hundred dollars, tops. Less than private lessons for the same amount of time. And private lessons usually are a bargain for what you get. The recording here is probably not from the console, but from a cell phone, standing closer to one PA than another. The guitar is high in the mix, which is actually good!

    Great guitar work, But that is NOT what Steely Dan wanted. They wanted a stacatto tight sound to match the plunk of the piano, as a counterpoint to the flow of the chorus. Unfortunately the song DOES sound better with a looser, flowing guitar, but Steely Dan where well know perfectionists and contrarians.

    This is very weak. Great song. Unfortuneately, the band looks boerd and like they were forced to play it and did not want to. There is no joy/soul/rock here- it looks like a pop quiz to them or a class project ehre everyone hated the tpic as well as each other. The guitarist is skilled and carried the band until his showboating at the end. The production is also poor.
