well i dont know about the best, but he is ONE of the best. I think that the best two guitarists on the face of this earth are steve vai and joe satriani. living legends
I know he is not playing the drums music lover he is listening to them to weave the gutar around I think he is doin great, What i should have said was good stuff i will listen again and not take notice of the drums! peace?
dude i agree this song was one of the first satch songs i ever heard, and i thought immediately that this should one of his most famous ones. but, unfortunately, like you said, it is underrated and deserves to be played as much as boogie, alien, and crush. if you ask me. ur cover kicks man.
its not neccessary to be one of the real 508 chromeboys. (cant see it from here.)He could have just sent one of the normal JS signature guitar for chroming.
I agree... this song should have been promoted more when The Extremist came out. I'm curious as to your opinion... when Flying in a Blue Dream came out, what did you think about his choice to sing on some tracks?
I love Joe's voice on Big Bad Moon, I actually got a chorus ensemble to sing I Believe at a performance while I played guitar, and all the other songs he sings on are great too!
Haha. Yeah it looks like an awesome guitar and you deserve it! I'm saving up for an epiphone prophecy em2. I really want that floating bridge. Do you know what type of bridge yours has?
Excellent men.....nice guitars....how many do you have. I have a question what is the difference between the js1000 and the js1200.....about playability
I have 22 guitars all together, 3 from the JS Series. First came a 100, then the 10th, and I just got a 1200. I can't compare to the 1000, since it's been a while since I've played one, but the 10th and the 1200 are VERY similar in sound and feel. But then, the 10th just has that certain magic that NO guitar can beat...at least, mine does!
greatness inspires hate. CDenic keep rockin on the free world man. mcbonillajr, how sad your dad didn't cum you on your whore moms mouth. very sad. pathetic loser
P.S. Getting your "chrome boy" signed by Joe this past April 2nd isnt going to make your music any better. And Im 99.9999% sure he threw out the demo tape you handed him at the signing once he saw how silly you looked in your outfit...
Funny how you didn't say any of this to me in person though...I wonder why...? Maybe because you're a COWARD...?
Tell you that, the next time you see me IN PERSON, remind me of who you are (the word "nobody" will suffice), and make some comments, and see how I react?
Won't do that, will you? No, that'd require a SPINE.
What a PATHETIC LOSER COWARD.
Had Joe seen this side of you, he would have vomitted. You are a disgrace to his name and to music.
Please click this guys "originals" link if you like to laugh! I wanted to shoot myself more than when i heard that horrible backing track he made to Satchs song a few minutes ago. This guy has a picture of himself bedroom jamming in socks and sunglasses while seriously tryin to promote his music...ROFL Dude, you need a new image BADLy. Oh and loose the corny vocals - stick to instrumental rock and you may have a hair of a fighting chance at least in the world of bad music...
nono... more like an early Jim Croce! i though Jim rose from the dead there for a second when i first turned this on... lovin the Chomeboy BTW! i wish i could afford one!
OK, that's pushing it! Come on! Manson looks like he's never seen the inside of a shower! I maintain that I only resemble The Great and Powerful Christopher Vincent DeNicola the First!
And wow, you really don't like the drum sound? Maybe it's the audio quality, but I love that drum sound! I've even recorded with it!
Just kiddin around man, as long as you don't start taking drugs you will be just fine ;^) I've got a killer boot(or so) by satch from the Cotton Club in 87 I believe but not sure at the moment.
i am 14 years old and i can play a little on gitar but i hope 1 day to be just like joe satriani...i cant read music at all thow any ways u rock = )!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fantastic job! I really enjoyed it!
