Jason Becker - Altitudes

[hatsumomo535353]

need to wordk on bends and vibratos

[cglrnbl]

need to work on bends

[79postt]

no....no...no.....

[MattallicA05]

I understand how hard this song is. And because of that I applaud him. But my OCD kicks in and its a different story. xp. Great job though man!!

[TheVacuxamumu]

Crappppppppp.....

[you123ST]

fine but it's not what i'm searching...

[murdockhex]

muito bom mas nunca sera que nem o original !! fato

[GUITARPLAYER467]

whats the bitchin song at the start of the vid?????????

[BjKnight91]

I think this guy did a pretty damn good job. Sure had a few mess ups but this song is really damn hard in the first place. I'm am pretty positive that none of you nay sayers can do better. Sure, you can make a video of you doing it in 1,000 takes to get it "perfect" but this guy had only one chance to play it, and in front of people no less. Quit being such negative Nancies.

[RobertFelty]

Why am I not that impressed? It is really good though.

[Benzadeus]

Why so many dislikes? That's an amazing cover!

[ExternalTooth]

I thought the bends left a little to be desired. They were a little flat sounding to me, and the tone didn't help it in my opinion.

[Aaarrrggghhification]

Why everyone hatin on this dude?

[Nightguitarr]

dislike? LMAO FUCK OFF! romantic shit by Jason B

[wolfos412]

Did not enjoy this, just a personal opinion.

[AncientFlame1980]

The fact that you are covering a song from someone that is now ill, doesn't mean that you are above any negative comments if your playing is bad.What can I say?The people who complain about this guys playing are just unbiased.Playing a false note is not something subjective.Example: the sun is rising or this note is wrong.This cover sucks.It's out of tune and out of tempo.Simple as that!

[Armageddonizer]

@AncientFlame1980 I agree with you, but another fact we can say, I think he needs more feeling in his playing, it sounds very... lazy

[ClassicalSerrana]

Not enough FEELING

[krelbar]

:18 push that note a little more...wicked flat.

[SteveIbanezVai]

Wrong...

[Mosconpaulo]

@SteveIbanezVai Jason was the best



[insaneguitarfreak]

Man, I really apreciate your cover, you rock, awesome job. stupid haters, they should be practicing guitar instead of talking shit.

[ogthemaster]

need more better tone

[mvunit3]

68 people who have no abilities to film themselves playing anything, and ready to be criticized for anything theyve created :/.

[Andwipha]

nicely done! a bit out of tune, it couldve been better tho

[Luey2236]

good! ;D i liked

[LDP060681]

not saying I can do much better but it definitely is out of tune....intonation's fucked. And yeah, the key's all fucked too.... but the playing's decent enough.

[payazokoki]

out of tempo, out of key, out of tune, but otherwise, nice job.

[xLLSupreme]

@TheAverageTrend Pretty sure its just in a different key man.

[backspace971]

sounded good to me,nigger eared bicthes

[pmacFTO]

Best Altitudes cover is watch?v=tRK6NxgPlfo

[BrokenCapo]

need better tone

[tamametal]

horrible tone!

[anggitarako]

damn shes slick!

[modsbeck]

For people who do not know... **THIS IS NOT JASON BECKER**

not even close, you must fix thw title U_U seriusly.

[sasix79]

great job!

[Brasker]

How dare you not add in the title the text: "This is a shitty cover, I'm not Jason, my Altitudes are almost at sea level, so just look for better covers if you want to hear the song played properly". 

[b4mvalentine]

i love this guys specialy In cacaphony :D

[elgrande1987]

na u nedd to work on it playu the right notes but still good try

[cozkul]

I thought you were Petrucci from the thumbnail :D

[wireman90]

Beautiful, and i noticed the Steel Panther T-shirt, nice !

[slashes1122]

ive been playing guitar for about 2 years, so all i have to say is HOW in the FUCK is he doing that with a pick????

[dvpkid]

@slashes1122 dude check out rusty colly for speed

[MaxvergaxS]

@slashes1122 shawn lane...

[Symeon94]

@slashes1122 i don't know, are u talking about the sweep picking parts or the alternate picking?

[Under5150]

J'adore ce morceau, mais il necessite et mérite beaucoup plus de propreté et de justesse.

[amromassadx]

man u are awesome . 46 lessen to Justin bebiers

[musikyle27]

45 dislikes are from yngwie and his fanboys.

[pyrovulcain]

I know it's out of subject but, what's that AWESOME SONG from 0:00 to 0:06 ? =O

[rhapsodyanoman]

[JNutria]

wow he did it this time in A not B

[givemeajackson]

he didnt get the bends in tune, but everything else pretty awesome.

[bestianx]

How could someone dislike this? have they ever listened music?

[sabrewolf1030]

take note no effeccts just on clean also its an ibanez with toggle swith for bright sound not an annoying yngvie fender with the switch up for warm tone to hide mistakes and sound faster lololol hahahah

[handsomerube]

far more "horrible" are the drums...sounds like animal from sesame street playing. that's what's fucking this up more than his playing...

[ylcn77ylcn]

Hi I wish you success

[lele54700]

vraiment genial!

faire friedman et backer est vraivent tre fort ! bravo a toi!

[bibby42]

OK, not to take away your skill or anything and I could never play this JB classic, but this was horrible bro.

[TheRealCryborg]

@bibby42 I totally agree with you, that was a massacre :s

[handsomerube]

@bibby42 uhhhh....don't you think "horrible" is a bit harsh? ESPECIALLY since you admit you can't even play it yourself. sure, there are better versions out there, but this wasn't "horrible"...

[bibby42]

@handsomerube Me not being able to play it doesn't automatically mean I am not musically inclined. The sound was off, way off. Listen to the original and then listen to this, you'll know the difference. I could pay tribute to Jason Becker by slaughtering one of his songs as well, but why would I wanna slaughter a piece of his masterful work. Yes, this was horrible.

[handsomerube]

@bibby42 dude...i've been listening to becker before you were an itch in your daddy's pants. i know his shit inside out. yes, i agree it's not a stellar performance...but i still say it isn't "horrible." lighten up...he gets an "A" for effort and a "B-" for performance.

you're entitled to my opinion...

[bibby42]

@handsomerube Wow, that's by far the dumbest thing I've heard all week. And I gave the guy props, didn't disrespect his skill, but yet it remains this cover was drastically bad on all levels. Good for him he can bs his way through the song and he knows some chords and notes. But it sounded severely out of tune. You can't fix that, it is what it is.

[jlodoa]

@bibby42 The sound wasn't off dumbass, it's in a different key.

[bibby42]

@jlodoa Technically speaking, if the sound isn't in the same key as the original then the sound is off, dumbass. And the more I listen to this version of the song the more I hate it. Not a knock on the guitarist, he has skill but this wasn't his day. Way off.

[IplayForKeepsX]

28 people were looking for the wrong JB!

[Grenadeur]

@IplayForKeepsX its Justin biber fans

[flashy5150]

he kicks my ass at that type of classical playing and I think Jason would be proud to see that he's inspiring and teaching someone and that his compositions are carrying on through time. Great job!!! I know Jason would pat you on the back for that one. Cheers!!

[The12345678977221]

Perfeiito =D

[Pekati0n]

buena interpretacion, aunque falta algo de practica xD, sigue dandole duro eres bueno con la guitarra

[xavibend]

you fucking idiot this he is jason becker make a bow idiot panagames

[proliant666]

fuera de tono

[AceVenturaQ911]

is that a whole step down?

[sorryboss101]

your wearing a steel panther shirt, you must be good

[The3rdStrikeIsOnYou]

Fucking up a track at a guitar clinic = epic fail!!!!

[Meursault86]

@The3rdStrikeIsOnYou really not that big a deal

[The3rdStrikeIsOnYou]

@Meursault86 - It is.

[Martyfriedman001]

this is fucking awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[heryblax]

Sorry: Sounds like if you don't love this theme. Lacks passion at your performance. Please, stop playing this masterpiece from JB, you are not the one to play it.

[rifewithfear]

@heryblax dude, don't say shit like that. if anything he should play it more, practice makes perfect.

[Martyfriedman001]

@heryblax you cant tell people to stop play a solo they like, he has the rightis to play this, just as good right as a fucking pro..... you can tell him .

[ELEMENTALW1]

He could have done it better. Many missing notes and no feeling to it. Personally I did not enjoy watching it but still nothings wrong with trying ;) gj

[Wraithkiller22]

So easy a caveman could do it?

[pinattaa]

u.u mucho trago de notas

Solo he visto a una persona tocar

esta obra y es el mismisimo Jason Becker

[Galclucies]

@pinattaa oye pero si jason becker no tiene lives con esta cancion .____.

[TheExsil]

manita arriba el que piensa que son estupidos alos que le gustan este video es una ofensa a jason becker

[pelitos666]

no mames esa cancion me hacia sentir una sencasion extraña a ora vergas me da asco ese cabron cagando una cancion PERFECTA por que es lo que es esa cancion no mames chale

[Joop5000]

Awesome playing!

Not many guitarist can play things live like done in the studio, because in studio, things are tweaked up. So to all the ones that think they can do better live, go for it and post it, instead of claiming to be better, let the viewers decide that.

[1madaboutguitar]

@Joop5000 Great point!

[1madaboutguitar]

@Joop5000 Great point!

[eddiestringer1]

como s ellama la cancion dle inicio ???

[Neogothicmetal666]

me hace sentir que toco mejor jajaja eso que jaja

[MetalproF1]

very bad

[restek36]

@MetalproF1 i agree with u..i play better..

[panamagames]

esta en pinga super en pinga...no se que hago aqui

[Sirist10]

jajaja te comes como 5000 notas

[s6y9l]

I'm not feeling this. it's 'fast", but it's soul-less. The phrasing isn't there, the bends aren't there. It's totally mechanical. Plus he's not running and jumping around, grinning and smiling from ear to ear, while chewing bubblegum and playing a yo-yo. No comparison to Jason.

[usblinux]

Steel Panther T-Shirt FTW!!

[calisa05]

not same

[laconchatu]

like my friend, its a very archi hiper difficult song to play, nice job!

[Belleraphon100]

kak awesome! respek dude!

[cotecitametal]

APRENDA Y NO SUBA WEAS!!! TU INTERPRETACION ES MALISIMA

[cotecitametal]

k horrible!!!

[Jonsk12394]

@cotecitametal - How the fuck can you call this horrible? It's not flawless, but he puts his own feel to the song, and most people with sense for this music would like this cover.

[SteveBelong]

Nicely done my friend, keep up the great work.

[Jasonconfused]

Did Jason Becker ever play this live himself?

[fassemen]

Чувак ты молодец..... плачу смотря эти записи ...

[unwantedmonkey]

Wow, I was blown away from the first 5 seconds of the vid! What is the name of that song??? Would very much like to know!! :)

[77Chester77]

@unwantedmonkey

The song is called "Altitudes" and can be found on Jason Beckers' "Perpetual Burn".

[hugopereira14]

not perfect...but very good.i imagine it must be hard to pull out this,so yeah,very great indeed :)

[Zimnes312]

@TeesByTruthSurge

hahahaha colorful langauge from a from 50 yr old, shows how mature u r. luckly youll die befor anyone important does.

[Zimnes312]

@TeesByTruthSurge

"classic lick" or somthing like that , it was your sorry attempt at a sweep. im a liar? ha, your in denial

[Zimnes312]

@TeesByTruthSurge

p.s it all comes back to u being jealous, just let it go.

[Zimnes312]

@TeesByTruthSurge

hahah for an old man u cant seem that u cant say anything without cussing, im worthless? u trying to live a dying dream of being any kind of a good guitar player. u block me? why? cause i tell the truth? u dont have more then a few hunderds views? from the looks of it i contributed more to the world then your pathetic attempt at playin an intrusment. that vid u link is prop the best u got right? 580 views is your best? ive seen 12 yr old with more talented then u.

[Zimnes312]

@TeesByTruthSurge

p.s x2

ppl should watch his " classic lick " segment, the so call lick he plays isn't in the ball park of blues, b.b king will never play that, your just a fail musician with fail sense of musical theory. well.....congratz after 30 plus yrs of playing the guitar u still suck :)

[Zimnes312]

@TeesByTruthSurge

your an delusional old man. i saw your vid and your not good, your playing is dirty and sweeps are not clean in the slightest bit. i guess as a child i have more knowledge then your rotting mind. watching your vid proves my point even further. your a bitter old man raggin at a young guy that accomplish things on the guitar that u couldnt do in your and past your prime. sorry sir but u can say your "buh bye now" all u want but at the end of the day, u just jealous :)

[MissKellyxD]

chills! *____________* <3

[slawko8]

You're guitar Hero for me! Wow!!!

[ChineseTOP]

amazing

[rampage222555]

lol at 3:00 i knew hes an awesome dude

[TruthSurge]

another loser with a misleading vid title. fuck you.

[Zimnes312]

@TruthSurge

jealous as usuall

[TruthSurge]

@Zimnes312 No, dumpster breath, I just happen to have a set of morals that don't let me deceive people into clicking on my vid. Has nothing to do with whether he can play or not. The people who always spew the "you're just jealous" line are almost always unable to play themselves. I've been playing since 1974, you fuck. Longer than you've been alive, no doubt.

[Zimnes312]

@TruthSurge

haha u have morals? cusrseing ppl on youtube and your 37+ yr old? hahah ur a sad man. even if u been playing since the 70s doesnt mean ur any good now. sad thing about u and your playing, that the guy on this vid reach a higher lvl of playin then u could in technically your whole life :) , so it goes back to...... your just jealous.

[Zimnes312]

@Zimnes312

p.s

funny how u have to respond on a different account, u got a trolling account or somthing?

[laithon2]

beautiful 

[paulneitorvh]

a naaa.!!  :)

[HerrNiekur]

Anyway. I think we shouldn't say what is wrong in his playing. Everybody can talk , but not everyone can play this stuff. I think Charles knows what's wrong. Great job.

[slayeruiop]

awesome cover..... but try to make that song up tourself!!!!

[6691alexb]

@HerrNiekur too true no feel at all

[krusher74]

Pretty good, but its just shows yet again how good jason was, everytime you struggle you loose the timing. Jason was not even trying hard when he plays that,
