[Mariponga1]

Excelente cancion!!!!....pero algo me llamo la atencion, en el minuto 2:02 aparece algo al lado de bob....?¿?¿¿? una luz que explota?

[TheJakeb93]

WOW!! WOW!! WOW!! Makes me wanna go learn electric... see it doesnt have to be LOUD and ANNOYING :)

[TheBhannah]

masterfull:)

[Destinist]

skeet skeet

[MrJoeygeeee]

Not a big finger tapping fan but this is magical!

[rugelindinda]

That style is playing a guitar like japan koto?

[dimeraz1]

one more alien!!!!

[OrAnOxBaRaToNeZ]

inspiring

[silendanuser]

4 poeple don't know where the butterfly is going....

[roy4955]

brilliant!!!!!!!!!

[006ralf]

Your awesome man..... mAh idol!

[smithmiesterman]

my god your good, people do not realize how difficult that is to play !!

[Josqpiercy]

This is beautiful.

[HarmPoy]

tongue at 2:35 xD

[HarmPoy]

Bob, really love your playing keep it up, thanks!

[kipster808]

[666jet]

holy jesus that was real talent

[DravenGD]

Beautiful.

[applehat32]

if you guys like this you should check you my budddys "little tybee" the guitarist also has some solo work up on here. his name is "josh martin" give him a look

[brettkreiman]

Lol...jeez people stop sending me messages saying I don't know what I'm talking about. I don't like this...it's blah to me,I don't HATE this, it's just nothing that special to me, and the technical ability aspect of his playing is very impressive but so what? And btw, I listen to a ton of a variety of music and listen to music more than 99.99% of everyone in the world doesand I play music too so yea, so I know what I like and what I don't. I think this sucks compared to other music, get over it!

[ultrabot90]

@brettkreiman I support you. Just because a piece of art is not to someone's taste doesn't mean either the spectator, the music OR the artist sucks. But YouTube is typical in not understanding that.

[haymaker66669]

@brettkreiman opinions are like assholes, everybodies got one, if you cant recognize passion, then you obviously dont have any yourself.

[Twotontongue]

@haymaker66669 If believing that makes you sleep better at night then sure, you got me. Now I must return to my muzak, getting a good start on my taxes, and the other drone like office tasks that I do all day everyday.

[brettkreiman]

This guy doesn't deserve to be singled out to be picked on or praised. He has talent but I don't sense any voice behind the playing that speaks to me. You could play 3 chord songs and be powerful or you can play complicated notes and chord progressions and be terrible. This guy needs to really find out what he has to say and where he fits in to the world and then put it into his playing, cause obviously his technical ability is not an issue yet something is missing. I could never listen to this.

[Thecheckerchex]

oh fuck off.

[PunchinTheMunchkin]

@brettkreiman I love it when people think because something doesn't speak to them, that means it is the musician's fault. People also feel COMPELLED to put down guitar wizards as if it is somehow impossible to combine unusual techniques (ie. "tricks") with emotion. The music is fine, your ears are broken.

[C861986]

@PunchinTheMunchkin also people seem to use there eyes too much. They look at a musician and if he/she is not gurning or looking like they are about to cry then that means their music has no emotion.

[BennyFIoyd]

i hope the butterfly found its peace

[JesterIF]

And there are still some idiots thinking Bob Zabek is an amateur. I just can't believe it.

[Zabahook]

He is JESUS on guitar! ...Man, you are blessed!

[YourMaIsFit]

Anyone know where I can download some of his music?

[C861986]

I love this because its almost like the music is telling a story

[fungoo989]

Total respect for this guy...but...speed doesn't make up for beauty and soul. I'll wait to hear him again in 20 years.

[lfry4]

This guy is seriously fast and seriously musical

[britishrebelz]

this song cool

[urdal2007]

Absolut FANTASTIC!!!

[billupsismydaddy]

who can i bribe to get this good

[leozingy]

Look up Stanley Jordan or Daniele Gottardo for mind-blowing two-handed tapping stuff (or even Zack Kim, though he uses two guitars). This clip is nice, but far from a two-handed tapping masterpiece.

[brandoscostumes]

as a composition you cant deny that it is

[ShredST]

Zack Kim does not compare to rest of the people you mentioned, and certainly not to Bob Zabek.

[torturer6067]

The best two hand tapper ive seen is without a doubt Enver Izmailov.

[stainedclass4512]

well this is much better than his other video's, i must say this tune i like :-)....but when he tries Hendrix its not good!!!...(in my opinion) but im a huge hendrix fan and apart from stevie ray no one else has come even within a million miles of recreating his style - Jimi was a free spirit. Bob - I think in this track you have found your own spirit....which Jimi would dig even more so than you trying his stuff...Your certainly the best guitarist in that chair :-)

[Talranor]

so he suck? i think so....

[maurizio82]

I completely disagree with you. I like this two-handed tapping stuff but I think he really kicks ass playing Jimi Hendrix/SRV kind of blues.

[stainedclass4512]

thats good if it works for you man, there enough music for everyone. peace

[scrambles101]

why is he playing so slowly?

[Oretruss]

because it's not always about playing fast..

[Andoni666]

guys who only care about speed can never call themselves musicians or a decent music judge

[mateusgundam]

Brazil aki porra!!!

bixo toca demaisss!!!!

porraaaaaaaaa

[myszkowski]

eAUHeuAHEuAehuAHE, Vamos divulgar o nome desse cara pq ele merece

BRAZIL AQUI PORRA (2)

[onetripwonders]

you should probably check out Aldo Vaccaro if you like this style. Prepare to be awed!

[GreyFrizzle]

2:30; watch a couple afterwards and he wiggles his tongue. hahaha...

anyways, this stuff is great-- you pwn n00bs, Bob.

[telereggio]

well dude you should play with your brother dylan for peace

[Epicus]

He's good, no doubt about it, but a miracle of miracles? C'mon guys... there were tapping mistakes along the way, which proves that he probably practiced for millions of hours to be able to get to this point. Tommy Emmanuel will always revered as my miracle.

[benserv]

he should release an album

[siggiola32]

whoa...this guy is good

[keeleo]

pure genius! real music still exists.

[EvoJackson]

0:36 is sweet!!

[patril0mic]

if andy mckee played electric XD

[GuitarHeroDragon]

ha ha if only

[crazylils]

Man, man, man...WOW.

Life's worth living when you meet a living miracle...

Such perfect beauty, with humour too...>> trust life, trust humanity, trust everything ! If this is possible, then what's impossible ?

How could I feel depressed again ? Music and art are still ALIVE, and well !!!

So suddenly, I feel fucking alive too !

Keep the fire burning, people.

;)

[camposjams]

WONDERFUL!

[BlackMerta]

damn nice playin'

[IanGriffithsGuitar]

simply beautiful..

[maldonadomanny]

hes really good

i hope he did not die cuz i need to learn how to produce those wonderful melodies

[choigunz]

2:33 look at his mouth haha he has so much fun with his work

[calicoolboy]

this dude gives hope to all the headies out there. SICK!

[zackvanhalen]

This is one of the greatest compositions ever made.

[woozieriver]

Wow dude. Art can be found on youtube.

[patasdearana]

@woozieriver if you want to see the video JULIO REVUELTAS "Danza Celta" on you tube he is Mexican

[4leafmetal]

@woozieriver how very true...

[trickykid0011]

@woozieriver look up the burning man festival

[klunnn]

the guy is good best performance i heard

[Shebatom]

Well I thought it was wonderful. After all,

how many butterflys are there on earth?

David J L

[Arcterion]

Rough guess: about 50.000 times as much as there are people.

[dfguitarman01]

did he die?

[ISKEETCHOCOLATE]

what kind of amp is that?

[Ogorek]

ENGL probably.

[Rln777]

Yup.. ENGL

[Billiardnut520]

@ISKEETCHOCOLATE

electric ...... :-)

[jimbojimbojimbojimbo]

this guy is just great !!! one of the best

[ralphM1114]

two handed tapping frees the left hand from working on the basses. it's kind of a cheat, IMO

[ralphM1114]

he does it effortlessly, since it is, in fact, not much. but do give credit for his composition :)

[aahmad31]

Nice,but stanley jordan just blows him away to the moon in all respects.

[myhaAa]

i don't give a fuck for stanley jordan...bob zabek has a very good compositions

[Jackthestripper]

technical aspects? Prehaps.

[nehocyrrah]

man, just cause hes white !!! your a racist!! you hate white people!!!!!

[JPanzer01]

who are you speaking to?

[radawsonco]

very pretty

[Poonard]

Did fucking jesus come back with a guitar! damn man!!!! nice way to show up after 2000 years.

[tommyk77]

nah, i fucked jesus and he didnt come a guitar...........oh, you meant.....:S

[Dimekirk]

You Sir, are a true Master of the Guitar. *bowingdowntoBobZabek*

[pacman101010]

Bow down to the creator not the creation...you only bow down to Jesus.

[aviolentbirth]

hail satan

[vladtepesdrac]

i dunno, JC was bowing down to me last night, he wanted to suck me off. weird eh

[Shredfred111]

dude... hahaha Jesus is a slut.. he was at my house last night too.. He was like.. I'll give you head if you teach me guitar.. and i was like... Lemme think.. Okay!!! hahahah

[shalavalamp]

this particular tune reminds me of durutti column, only he is playing it all at once!!

[coteaux90]

I love it!!!! That what you can call guitar control

DGERV

[achokarlos]

Q bonico pijo!!!

[Niko9876]

[Poonard]
