Mark Knophler asked him if he wanted to join Dire Straights. Unfortunately he had just signed a record contract and couldn't. Then after Glen Fry passed away and the Eagles wanted to go on tour the first guy they called was Vince Gill. The dude is a epic guitar player!
They played Vince Gill go rest high on that mountain..at my moms funeral when she died at 39 years old..Vince is an exceptional guitar player and Singer my mama loved Vince Gill ❤ 🤟😎
Quite a few years ago, I saw Vince in concert at the Rose Garden in Portland, Oregon. During his set, he covered The Eagles' ballad, "I Can't Tell You Why." I've seen more live shows than I can count and that is one of the top two or three songs I have ever had the good fortune to hear. " Stunning' doesn't begin to do it justice.
Oh man, this is one of my favorites from Vince. He was doin some high quality pickin! The difficulty level of running that solo strait through and that clean is very high indeed. Solid work!
GEEZZZZ... Big man with thick fingers playing that telly basically CLEAN, and I was listening closely, but my ear couldn't find even the smallest of mistakes. Pretty amazing.
@@michaellockhart554 I just found the longer version of this clip, Chet calls in and asks Vince to play this song. Watch it if you haven't. ua-cam.com/video/Stv3ugVFZD8/v-deo.html
@@twentyfiveyears5010 I've actually seen it several times, nobody reacts to it because it's so long, there is another of him doing The Key To Life with Earl Scruggs sons, it's awesome
By the way, man, that's a straight Telecaster - no B bender, or G Bender as you called it. Just fingers, brain and fabulous technique. Good luck with the rebrand.
Its your boy ? what does that mean? Vince is a monster guitar player and can play any genre. He is a very nice guy to talk with too. If you see an interview with him he is just like that in real life very humble with no ego. Vince learned a lot from guys like Carl Perkins and Chet Atkins and you can hear it in his playing
I am glad I got in on the ground level..you are definitely going to be a star in the blues community..but not just that your phenomenal guitar playing..I can see it..I hope everyone else does too
Vince has a mindblowing vintage guitar collection. Millions of dollars worth of pre-war Martin and Gibson acoustics. Alot more Martins than Gibsons though. I'm the same way. I'll choose my D-28, over the fanciest Gibson acoustics, any day of the week. As far as mass produced guitars go, none come close to the build quality, and sound of a Martin.
Sadly, the "short list" of Country pickers who might be considered "great" is pretty short. Vince has the looks, the voice AND the guitar skills to be in a class by himself, with a possible in Brad Paisley joining him. Both of them can produce hits without resorting to joining in with others to enhance their careers. That said, Vince joining the Eagles is NOT a "step down" for him.
? Do you mean just living ones? Keith Urban ain’t too shabby, but going back, there’s Glenn Campbell, Chet Atkinson, Roy Clark, just off the top of my head. Those three were world class.
Had to chime in here. Kudos for recognizing awesome tele playing. Between the 1&4 there a lot of interchangeable chops, creating minor major tonality. One thing. I may be wrong BUT not sure he’s has a bender in that guitar. - oh that ain’t nothin but blues. Just a different flavor of it.
I really like your channel, and guitar playing (fellow musician/guitarist). Ever heard of Shawn Lane? Search "Shawn Lane mirror", solo starts 9 minutes in. Not a reaction request, I just want you to hear what Shawn left us briefly before he left earth - deserves to be heard. From Memphis to India to the edge of the universe.
Have you checked out Playing For Change, When The Levee Breaks with John Paul Jones? Its stunning & Bluesy. They have musicians from all over the world playing in their own elements tracked together. SO Worth the watch. Great Reaction! You should react to SRV! 😍 The GOAT!
Great reaction, as usual! Sorry to see you change it up, yet happy for you to be moving in the direction you need to. Have you ever seen the Wings of Pegasus channel here on YT? Fil has a pretty good thing going on there, he's a teacher too, maybe check him out and pull a bit or two from what he's doing. Good Luck, I'll be watching to see where things go for you man!
You have only touched the surface of Country Music/ Bluegrass. The well is very deep. Some of the legends are Roy Clark(as you discovered), Glenn Campbell, Jerry Reed, Chet Atkins. It's amazing when they play together. You can see they loved & enjoyed playing together. Others include Jim Stafford, Bill Monroe, Charlie McCoy(harmonica), Roni Stoneman, Buck Trent, Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs. They did the theme song for The Beverly Hillbillies tv show. The tv show "Hee Haw" is a great place to find them. You can ck them out just for yourself.

Vince is a slinger!
Glenn Campbell was also great session musician and was equally adept in mastering the guitar.
you kidding me,this guy is top 10 all time pickers. in my top 3 ever,seen him twice in concert,amazing
They played Vince Gill go rest high on that mountain..at my moms funeral when she died at 39 years old..Vince is an exceptional guitar player and Singer my mama loved Vince Gill ❤ 🤟😎
🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Vince Gill is a guitar legend! Good luck with your career.
Vince is known as one of the best vocalists in country music history......and oh yeah, he can make a guitar sang!
This is his old '53 Tele and it is not a bender. He plays those licks straight up on this one. He is just a world class tele player.
100% correct. It's all in the fingers.
I love it when someone discovers how fantastic my fellow Okie, Vince Gill, is. He's an absolute MONSTER guitar player! Good luck on your music career!

Vince is amazing! He sings even better! He was with Pure Prairie League also.
Vince is one of my guitar heroes.
GEEZZZZ...
Big man with thick fingers playing that telly basically CLEAN,
and I was listening closely, but my ear couldn't find even the smallest of mistakes.
Pretty amazing.
1:34 "I'm gonna try to pick it just like you taught me, Chester" gotta be a shout out to Chet Atkins, one of the greatest guitarists ever.
It was, Chet Atkins was a great friend to Vince and really helped him get started

Vince Gill a freaking legend and now is rocking with Don Henley and The Eagles!!❤️
that was some of the greatest clean picking you will ever hear!!!
No one can play like Vince he can shred
Vince is a fantastic talent both vocally & mstr guitarist!! Stud!!
By the way, man, that's a straight Telecaster - no B bender, or G Bender as you called it. Just fingers, brain and fabulous technique. Good luck with the rebrand.
LOL 1:50 "Jesus Christ!" you said it all there man, what a MONSTER on that telecaster. Thanks for the vid!!
Monster of a player
Insane guitar skills!
Bless you on your journey

James Burton. Master of the telecaster
Wishing you luck in your career, thanks for the reactions ✌️
Great artist to end your reactions to..the world is alot SMALLER than we can see❤🤟😎
Most definitely

I appreciate your technical analysis of Vince's playing. To the rest of us, it sounds great but we don't know why.
Anytime
Don’t know if he still tours but I’ve seen him a few times and he smokes it live.
He has actually been touring with the Eagles & singing with them with their Hotel California Tour!!!!

I saw Vince play blues on that same guitar with Brent Mason.
May you go far in your career. Follow your heart always. ❤
Thank you!
Btw from a Texan! Tele playin Okies ain’t nothin but northern Texans. ❤

Get ya Billy Strings…best blue grass flat pickers ever.
Vince can play just about anything with strings. His wife calls him a freak, lol.
Lol!
His guitar playin is as smooth as good Irish whiskey!
Vince is a guitar pickin fool! You should hear him with Earl Scruggs!
Actually w no research, I dunno if VG is actually even an Okie. But he’s a helluva musician, wherever he’s from.
If you haven't yet check out Amie Pure Prairie League with Vince Gill as a teenager, also great song.
Props on listening to all music, sum isn't good, test it all. 💯
I recommend checking out Phil Keaggy some time also...especially his acoustic stuff.
I really like your channel, and guitar playing (fellow musician/guitarist).
Ever heard of Shawn Lane? Search "Shawn Lane mirror", solo starts 9 minutes in. Not a reaction request, I just want you to hear what Shawn left us briefly before he left earth - deserves to be heard. From Memphis to India to the edge of the universe.
Glen Campbell and Jerry Reed are some other great guitarists. You should definitely check them out
Not reactions just for personal pleasure
So. Damn. Hard. To play as smooth as he does. I’ve tried
Check out Ricky Skaggs doing Country Boy live in 1986!
Look at Vince's Chicken Pickin video. It will give you insight into how he gets that sound
big fan
Thank you! 🤘🏾🤘🏾

❤❤❤❤❤
Mark Knopfler asked Vince Gill to join Dire Straits in the early Eighties.
Check out Johnny Hiland and Brent Mason.
When you come up playing Bluegrass, you can play anything well.
Not fair to the rest of us when a kick ass Bluegrass flatpicker plugs into an amp. It’s just not fair.
At 1:36, I think he’s referring to Chet Atkins. He can really pick!
☮️💜
Check out Johnny Hiland
You should check out Steve Wariner. Awesome guitar player. :)
Vince Gill isn't using a B Bender on this. He's just rippin', dude.
Great reaction, as usual! Sorry to see you change it up, yet happy for you to be moving in the direction you need to. Have you ever seen the Wings of Pegasus channel here on YT?

He does not use a B Binder
Plans sound great to me. You have a lot to teach. Work up some videos with your keyboard player too for some icing on the cake!
I'll have to find some way we can collab
Vince don9use a B bender
It's a progression. You are next.
Thanks!
He can shred anything is playing with the Eagles since Glen Frey died
keith urban is fabulous with the guitar as well
That he is!
There's a line that connects old hillbilly music with the blues. That's what made American music unique
Having Bluegrass in his past makes him a good picker too.
That guitar does not have a B or G bender on it.
Glen Campbell
Check out Brad Paisley and Keith Urban. They are great guitar players too.
There's no margin for error in that type of playing
No Gbender.
I don't like a person who claims to be a guitar player and has never heard of Vince Gill.
