  • jamesedward: Not every1 is a "slowhand stylist"; ya know.

  • wauw wat 1 gave gitaar:dit is het!

  • SO FAR ABOVE EVERYONE.

  • heh. that being said, thanks for posting this! i loved this album as a teenager and just stumbled across 'pacific express' on pandora and was blown away by how cool that track is!

  • love mclaughlin the composer. always thought his soloing was nervous and high strung like a bee caught in a jar, and his tone of late is flat/lifeless

    technique is never more important than music. i wish i had known that growing up and learning to play guitar.

    he's faking it a lot here in this track with that open string riff, and yes i can play this kind of shit...

    mclaughlin the composer is untouchable, though and i think his contribution to progressive rock and fusion is underappreciated.

  • @jamesedwardtheobald Who cares how difficult it is or isnt?? It sounds cool.

  • @funkagent think ya missed my point! that's exactly what i said! to quote myself:

    "technique is never more important than music."

    if it sounds good doesn't matter how it's done. the twitchy riffs do nothing for me, though.

  • @jamesedwardtheobald totally agree with you man. Its very unmusical to do all those fast licks as much as he does. which surprises me because he definitly is a musical genious... he should know better!!!!!! hahaha

  • His technique has come on loads since this clip. His technique now is breathtaking but that misses the point totally...the lines he plays now are so much more complex and imaginative than the 'shredders'. Anyone can shred with distortion/compression, Johnny can do it on an acoustic. Sorry, but George Bellas could not lace Johnnys boots.

  • shred king eh?ive always loved John but ...........you'll need to delve into the works of George Bellas to se how far guitar technique has actually come

  • @nneevveerrmmoorree

    Yes, but even more Shawn Lane´s later stuff with Jonas Hellborg ot the Johansson brothers. Heard his solo on Acrostic Shibboleth today. First take and 100 % improvised.

  • John is the man, allways..

  • this has different camera angles to the dvd release i got in new zealand. He is the man!!!!

  • @raniera13 THIS IS NOT A DVD SHOW! IT IS MY SHOW

  • Shred King..!!

  • awesome music... awful clothing

  • In this clip you can hear why Shawn Lane said that JMac was the "absolute master" of right hand technique.

  • mather f......r

  • fuk you mather fuker
