you have to hear knowles play live to be able to say anything about his tone, he has a good sound, this is just a crappy recording. plus look at the song?? its a reaaaally old song, and would be stripped of its "classic" title if it was over distorted or overdriven. his tone did get worse in my opinion when he started playing the PRS instead of the strat.. but thats just me. still awesome.. like it better than when clapton played it.
You can have the licks, but if you don't have the right sound equipment, and the right (AMP SETTINGS), to go with it, you are robbing yourself the promotion to fame, you otherwise might have. JOE BONAMASSA, has mastered the right settings on his amps to compliment every blues lick he plays. I wish Davy would touch base with Joe, and have him show him what equipment to play through, and how to gauge the settings on his equipment, it would help him tremendously.
Listen to JOE BONAMASSA play: BLUES DELUXE, at the Rockaplast, and you will see the difference in sound quality. Type in: JOE BONAMASSA, BLUES DELUXE, and click on the one he played at the Rockaplast, and you will see ten thousand worlds of difference in the sound. If someone knows how to get in touch with Davy Knowles, and lead him to Joe to help him with the right sound equipment and settings, then it would help out this group tremendously.
*jaw dropping* can't wait to see DK, PK and Ty again in SFran Dec. 15th at the Independent. This kid is a marvel. spooky reincarnation of many blues-rock greats
un...fuckin...believable. Davy is the best guitarist to come from europe since Peter Green. It's almost like the 2nd coming of the Experience. The rhythm section is great too, or else it would sound like shit - this is (or was now, they are broke up) a great band!
im not gonna discuss with you but there are a lot of musicians of all levels who can play this song better ,they are good but not the best ,davy or whatever he calls
had talent ,the other two i dont like them sorry,but the music is not about get an instrument and make noise you have to study,have discipline to practice,practice,a lot of rehearsals learn
of the mistakes and if you are a fan of them
i apologize if i offend you but im free to say what i like or dislike or think
There are a lot of comments, here and elsewhere, about the two players other than Davy Knowles. Well, it's true. They haven't got personalities like, for example, Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce. On the other hand, they support Davy's playing beautifully. Just sayin'.
different people express emotion different ways for instance im a drummer and when i get into a really intense session i could sit there for dozens of minutes with my eyes glued shut and my face expressionless but my arms are flailing in every which way and are alive with feeling so if you look at the bassist's hands and fingers u can see that he really is into the music, just not much of a showman
jesus crist .. you have the vídeo , you have de sound .. a lot of people in the youtube always asking for tabs .. forget tabs, try to learn the music, use your ear, your soul and your brain!
It does not sound like Steivie Ray Vaughan. He sounds like Jimi Hendrix and (more obviously) Eric Clapton. I have no idea why people say he saounds like Stevie. Stevie had a very distinct tone, and no one else can duplicate it. Trust me, I listen to Jimi, Stevie, and Eric A LOT, and he sounds the least like Stevie.
He has done his homework for sure! I think he has done a great job of blending them all together and not sounding like any one in particular! He also has some of Rory Gallaghers sound and phrasing!
Just saw them perform om jimmy kimmel and I was hooked. These guys rock, made me stay up alnight and practice my guitar playing. I found out they have a cd out I am going to run and get it. Once again I have to say these guys rock.
Ostentatious?? Where do you see him trying to show off. He's putting his emotions into a solo. What more can you ask of a musician than them putting themselves out there in their music? "This guy would be an okay guitarist..." Are you seriously saying that he isn't even okay? You're a joke.
Ive got to say I disagree. He has phenomenal feel. He is also very young. He did rip some licks but shit who doesn't, he place them with passion and thats what its all about. Hes feelin it . . . .
In the future you may see it differently who knows . .

Very good job guys.
I am a professional guitarist, and I think you should dismiss the negative criticism in these comments.
Am I nervous about losing my gig to Dave? No.
Do I think he can play? Yes.
Am I glad to see 3 young men embracing a style of music that laid the foundation of rock and roll? Very much.
I think you guys rock. I'd love to jam with you sometime.
