    Wow dude you play it raw as hell! I think your are one of the few people on youtube who play it the same way as lukather: with the right timing between the notes and the aggressiv picking of the strings!

      Check some of my other videos, there's Dire Straits cover, vocal cover I did recently and a solo for one project I recorded... I have a demo of my own song too.

      It would be interesting to know where/how you figured out the other 2 guitar parts for the melody :)

    •  7 років тому

      I was just listening to the original recording until I figured out. haha
      I lear all the solos by ear and by looking how the original player plays them. But still I play them a lil bit different, 'cause I don't want my cover to be exactly the same as original. :)

Its all Feel man, notes don't have to be exact but you got the feel and notes, and you owned this brother... its your own interpretation, unreal !

    •  6 років тому

      Thank you so much brother. I'm at loss for words. There's always something I aim for when I play and that's to tell a story through feeling/playing. That's one of the reasons I also adore improvisation!

    • @dexterpastele2217
      @dexterpastele2217 6 років тому

      you are so welcome, my playing style is very similar to yours, but use a lot of legato, still working on speed picking, but mainly because of my bluesy roots been able to fake my way through a lot. Totally inspiring man... I've watched a few of your other vids and they are all intense. Lots of people play the notes, or are technically perfect but lack the feel, you have it all.
      I would love to hear some of your improve stuff..... Thats what the Old School guys did, played off the top of their head, and even live they seldom played the song the same as their studio recording.
      My kudo's and admiration, I don't compliment too many guys nowadays... but man real, I can feel every damned note you played even the fast ones... dang man... I hope you're playing in a band, cos you are awesome man!
