He0s a bad guitarist, but he's not that bad as a singer, in fact he's quite pleasant. If he would drop the instrument and focus on his voice he could some worthwhile,
I heard him in an interview once say that he was trying to get his music career going before he started acting. Not exactly my kind of music but some people may like his music.
In my humble opinion, Segal is a better guitarist than he is a singer, but he has a certain presence and that lived-in look that gives street cred to a blues artist.
Y'know, I saw stills of him playing with his HUGE right hand hanging down over the lower horn and him picking with a bare thumb and thought "Surely this is crap." Damn it, Seagal can really get about on the guitar. Some really great licks and a superb voice with tons of character. When he isn't busting bad guys he's busting chops! :oD
One thing i'm wondering since a long time...why you americain are so unmature and arrogant? You should be proud instead of all the stars you have in your country, the chance to have in your flesh and blood.So why don't you start acting like adult for once! Just for a change you american,stop beiing so arrogant,jalous and so violent! Show the real man inside your soul cause i know you are really rich men inside! Thank you!
Fucking horrible, remedial. Many other actors gave it a shot too, who suck. Who gives a shit about anything else except whether he can play? Check out the list of UFC fighters who he's pissed off about teaching this 'killer' kick. He's extremely successful, absolutely, but not in music. People want to rub shoulders etc. I hear he's a decent singer, but didn't prove it here.Get his ass off stage, along with Bruce Willis etc. Pay your fucking dues, take the time to learn how to fucking PLAY.
bonjour je suis français et admirateur de steven,ce soir je regarde une émission après un de vos films et a ma grande surprise je découvre que dans la vrai vie vous êtes dans la police depuis 20 ans et aussi que vous faite du blues avec beaucoup de talent,vraiment une stars complète,et je suis admiratif pour ce que vous faite pour les enfants ,cordialement Eddie
Come on guys, let us be realistic here. This is all good fun, Steven has made some great movies (of sorts), but he cannot play the guitar for shit. I don't care why that maybe, but seriously... He's awful. I would happily pay money to go and see him live, because it would be hilarious, and I would bet that that's why nearly everybody else would, as well.
to those that keeps saying that his playing is sloppy, well Stevie Ray Vaughn is pretty much a hit and miss guy when it comes to guitar playing. well, Steven and SRV is not really a fair comparison, but still. blues isn't really about being spot on with the notes, it's not technical jazz for pete's sake.
Well...it's official. His guitar playing is every bit as good as his acting! I hope nobody takes this as a compliment. Sure, some of his movies are entertaining and he carries them well enough for what they are, but it's a stretch to call him an actor. Yes, he can play a guitar, but certainly not well enough to justify him playing in a stadium. If he wasn't Steven Seagal he would only jam with buddies in his basement...maybe play some parties.
He looks uncomfortable up there and very stiff. Can't say I enjoy his playing much, but at least he is doing it. Better than never picking up a guitar, yet sitting here ripping on him. And yes, before you ask, I do play guitar.
@BassLedzepU2, Then why do other actors who sing (like Keanu Reeves and Russel Crowe) don't have such succes? They are more famous, recently more succesfull in movies (they still make it to the big screen).
i dont get it when people say he sucks they have blues festivals where i live every summer and he sounds as good as many of the veterans that play there and those guys are good
@kotegashi ok dude listen to this... 1. if u have any musical expirience and knowledge u would know that this guy cant play for shit... 2. keanu reeves and russel crowe have brains, and know that their musical skills arent that good for a concert or a cd.. and wont make fools of themselves.. ( seagal plays just because he thinks he can snap your neck if u dont like it..
@Nox88nbg and there are actors like hugh laurie and robert downey junior that play the guitar and have cd's, but they actually know what they are doing, listen to them.. 3. just because u are a aikido fan and therefore love steven seagal doesnt mean that everything that he does is good ... 4. people are there for the name and to have a laugh :P cya
@BassLedzepU2 Sorry but thats utter bull! Steven Seagal is full of air and while he sucks at acting he's a true martial arts master and has proven himself to be a true musician as well, his performances speak for themselve.
@kotegashi France is a chickenshit nation full of cowards.they wouldn't lets us fly through there air space to get kadffia.the blues guys do it because he is famous.France had Jim nabors at # 1 so what does that tell you.beside Norris can still kick his ass.
@zestyy - why is he allowed being on stage? Because he is doing more good things to the world than you would be able to do in your entire life - you piece of shit - go down and bury yourself
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Either he's playing all pulls offs or their is no sound coming from his guitar cuz he shure AINT picking anything ( or maybe every 12th note) Obviously the carryover from aikido to guitar is zero.
Maybe his hands are so big they get stuck in the strings on something.
My advice to him would be to watch some you tube videos on sweep picking by maybe marty Friedmand of Kirk hamlet and practice for 8 to 12 years and then go play at an empty starbucks with his mike turned way down.
to *Guilddude2* first of all ur an idiot and got 5 thumbs down. Second its MARTY FRIEDMAN and KIRK HAMMET* u spelled those two very wrong. Third these guitarists are metal and more specific....Marty is on shred and Kirk on wah pedal. Fourth Steve plays the blues. Fifth Steve is a person that have won in life!. Sixth go take a life and stop beeing a fag from dickhead! @
They probably set up the sound to have him louder. It wasn't shit but it wasn't good. From a players perspective.
With regards to the Hammett/Friedman part, I think you're missing the point. He's not actually a player, he's just someone playing guitar, if that makes any sense.. Anyway it was for a good cause and that's all that matters.
