Definitely a great guitar player. I've followed him for the past 2 years, and he's got some incredible stuff (and some really crappy stuff), my favourite being "Paris Morning".
And no SRV doesn't just bend one note all day. I don't know what kind of SRV you've been watching, but either a) you haven't seen enough or b) you're interpreting it wrong. Yes, he does add a lot of changes to certain notes, but he hardly plays the same thing over and over again.
i probably dont like all the music you like i dont post it on the web though. i like this and it deserves commendation because of the dedication it took to learn guitar this well. i play guitar damn well an this blew me away wen i saw it the first time. ok!!
Thats really good, dont know if its you, but its good.
Don't be hatin on other people just because you think your better than them, it shows that you fell threatened that someone else is as good or better than you.
He is amazing, and you can tell that he does nothing except for play guitar all day. He has a urine bag attached to his penis, and he's been wearing that same shirt for 6 years now.
He's just doing some fancy flamenco playing. I mean it still is good but it's not the most amazing thing ever.
However SteveFeces is a complete idiot. I highly doubt you can play that you moron. People like you shouldn't post on these things. Critsizing is okay but judging by your "mastery" of the english language I can only assume that you flunked out of highschool.
i think he concentrates a little to much on what he looks like whilst performing...all the tapping and slapping etc. Maybe he could play it slower? it may sound better.
PURE SKILL !! - "No Feeling "? Hey, you've got to love your instrument to take yourself to this level of perfection !
I totally agree that a simple tune can come right from the heart - and go right to other people's hearts (it does not need big technical skills), BUT when I listen to a good guitarists, I can hear Hell of a lot of Feeeling communicating !
Go get the album before you bash him. This video was put on the internet to specifically get him fans of a younger generation. He plays it fast on purpose because the majority of people think speed = talent
He's got the feeling, man. It's just a faster version of Phunkdified. You try playing this without having any feeling, you sack of shit. His music comes from his feelings, what sounds good to him and what locks in together--Beethoven did it, Bach did it, Mozart did it--there's no music without feeling. It doesn't exist. All music is expression of the heart through sound.
i'd for one be freaked out if somebody held a grin on their face for 1 minute and 58 seconds straight wouldn't you? feeling? what're you talking about? watch his video where he plays knock on would on an acoustic guitar at NAMM
I normally wouldn't aknowledge that type of response with an answer (aren't you guys too old to start an exchange of opinion with "your" an idiot?), but an exception;
Does anyone have the definition to the "meaning of music"? Did I praise his technical ability? Did I imply in any way that I aspire to be a successfull musician?Do I have to be famous to have an opinion? Can't I think that Paris Hilton sucks (musicwise) because she is famous and more successfull than me?
Ok wait, did you just judge Justin King just because of this one video? If then you're an idiot, but if you didn't... good for you. Anyway SRV bending the same note all day would be boring though wouldn't it? No matter how much feeling SRV put in that one note and adding vibratos and stuff. I just think Justin King is creative, and I think its much better than any musician bending a string all day. =)
I agree with passivemoo here. Sure, he breaks the meter in (about) the third phrase (the melodic one that's almost all arpeggiated), but this seems intentional to me (I followed it with eiths instead of quarters and it lined up). Besides that, the rest seems pretty solid; perhaps a little rushing or dragging here or there (very minor and hard to notice). I think many people here have a minimal amount of rythmic training and comprehension to call him offbeat in his timing.
no, i'm not an idiot. i suggest you check the dictionary for the definition. simply posting my opinion here is proof... as for my opinion. i stick by it. i've got much more interesting music to listen to.
Justin King is a sellout faggot peice of shit gimmick guitarist, his music with his band is TERRBLE, and all his "amazing" acoustic performances sound exactly the fucking same.
And I am sure you can do better huh? He is not a sellout, he helped to establish and create this style of acoustic guitar which is FULL of expression and feeling. He is a musical genious and is very talented.
come on men you must kidding !Its crazy coollllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
