[rockbudd0250]

aaaaa se eu tivesse la kra!!!

[Porranaofunciona]

eu tava! e foi perfeito manow!

[rockbudd0250]

sortudo !! vc me dexou com inveja haha !

[nslac11]

Greatest Manhattan version. Just Amazing ! You are listening a guitar master.

[nake25]

he changes some part of the song to make it fresh.. this song is like 20 yrs old..

its amazing how a perfectionist innovates.. ^^

maybe because he is tired playing the album version.. he plays this for like about 20 yrs from now.. same goes why he have diff intros in clffs of dover..........

[MadGriffith]

it's 12 years old, to be exact (1996).

[WMDG3]

actually I've heard this song played by Eric in 1984...so it is over 20 years old

[MadGriffith]

Aren't you confusing it with Cliffs of Dover? Manhattan is from '96 album "Venus Isle"...

[AzWeThInKwEizZ]

Manhattan was written before Venus Isle even came out. The earliest I've heard EJ perform it was '84 at ACL.

[ozdemirk]

he should come to Turkey before his 50s

[whothefxxx]

dude hate to say this but he IS in his 50's lol

[Bostonrocks222]

I know weird aye? he looks like a little kid maybe 20 25ish.

[whothefxxx]

i guess it really is true if you do something that you love it won't stress you out makes you look younger and feel younger hehehe

[strivingx67]

EJ doesn't get the respect he should.. Period!

[HectoRHCP]

Respect from who? If you ask to any guitar player with knowledge of music, probably he´s gonna tell you that Eric is one of the bests... If you ask to some guy who ONLY listen Maroon5, Linkin Park, or some MTV band...

[strivingx67]

You may have a point there. But thats the thing. The avg. joe knows who Jimmy Page is.. but most will not know EJ. IMO.. Page was a pioneer, while EJ is a master at his craft.

But your point is well taken.

[nake25]

haha!! tried dat once.. sum guy told me "hes a singer ryt?" damn!

[AzWeThInKwEizZ]

People shouldn't discredit EJ at all, he's a guitar god...

[MParseface38]

only because he doesn't play a hundred thousand notes per second. i think it's sad that THIS is considered "modern guitar" playing. a good mixture between both playing fast and showing off AND playing with feeling, expressing and passionate...

[evandroos]

wow at 3:30

[evandroos]

muito bom heuHE

[drchronos]

This solo was just great!! He popped these jazz-style notes that sounded just beautyful! I agree, better that the original solo!

[yayayair]

he's so akward....

[davidcinox4]

ohh man, I saw eric johnson in that same tour, and the song was better played than in the cd, it was AWESOME!

[Powerslider]

man, i cant believe why people discredit this version of manhattan, i think this version the best improvisation parts ive seen from eric! alot of advanced chord changes in there, and he nails them pretty good i think! also he puts alot of feeling in the song, what else is missing besides a better quality recording of this version?

[DerekM8690]

I agree, I think this is one of his better solos on manhattan...

[ManhattanJazz]

The tone is different because he doesn't have his echoplexes. If he had his echoplexes, the sound would be very, very different.

[wasp2020]

He's having some mad fun...

[pidgeyhome]

well the tone quality is probably the camera, not eric himself

[gracegreatness]

the tone s' cause is changed his guitar tech?

[jazzfet]

What happened with EJ?, i agree with u guys he changed his sound and tone and definitively he plays forward, i dont know why he changed the way he used to play, but i dont really care, he still keeping his unique feel and presence.

[aaronshaff2006]

This is not a good version of Manhattan, sounds like an amateur playing it. He's totally out of tune.

[ManhattanJazz]

I thought it was beautiful. He doesn't play it like an amateur or a pro, he plays like ERIC JOHNSON.

[MadGriffith]

I think it is a registration's fault. Quite a lot of an unwanted delay can be heard...

[negadon80]

He should come to long island more often.

[renixe]

Sounds like hes improvising some part of his lines now, although keeping it mostly the same. Seems like he's having more fun in this video than in most I have seen.

Also, he plays a diminished line around 1:40 which made me laugh and smile. I don't think it fits the song though. On the whole, it's still good.

[bradley1107]

yea not so sure about those dim. lines (has another one at 2:02 or so) and hes not really hittin all the changes in good time like he usually would but still good

[dildildil]

W T F he sounds so much like shit compared to b4...

maybe its the mic on that cam...

[ManhattanJazz]

Is there a tab for this version of Manhattan? Its unbelievably jazzy and nostalgic

[EricJohnsonPlaya]

Yes, he doesn't play the song quite the same as he used to...EJ's tone change a lot over the course of recording "Bloom"...his overdrive seems to have more fuzz, just not the same violin tone as he used to have. I saw EJ in concert earlier this year while he was promoting bloom, and what a show...although he never played Manhattan. I find it funny how over the years Erics hair style has changed so much..Must be his wife rubbing off on him.

[DigitechGNX]

OMG!!! EJ is the best

[kcplease]

i cant believe roscoe beck's still playing bass for him! Two of my favourite musicians

[MrKingEvil]

Finaly someone who notice Roscoe..!

[ManhattanJazz]

Eric Johnson is simply...godly

[orlandirafael]

Melhor formação do G3 de todas e eu perdi. Ah!!! Não acredito até hj. Ainda quero ver EJ tocando de perto.

[KooLaNgooT]

OMG! my monitor is shaking....no... it's my head... no...

[ajdomingos]

eric my best

[diyamez]

man.... i really hate this version.. I like the old one better. frustrating... the notes he played was too chord broken..argh!! WHY ERIC WHY?!!?

[brunovagab]

bah muito foda... eu tava no show...

[Puma19king]

good shxt!
