Neil Zaza - Little Drummer Boy (Live)

[hiyahiya007]

I never liked the "Little Drummer Boy" song until I heard Neil play it here. Now I could listen to him play it all day long. :) Just beautiful. Playing the notes of a song is one thing; the real skill lies in the much more subtle technique/style/execution. Only the world's very best guitar players can ever actually attain this sound that Neil gets here; he's a true virtouso & master. Check out his version of Satriani's "Friends" (on YouTube too), as well as Neil's CD's which are also amazing.

Music genius! He really is one of our greatest guitar players of our time.

[786marauder]

huh!! still far away from Joe Satriani!!

[77guitardude]

@786marauder yea... miles ahead of him! lol

[jhinthepen]

@786marauder Lots of famous guitarists like Les Paul, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, etc. uses expensive guitars and makes music out of it, but using a guitar made by a cheap guitar brand (Cort) and making grand musics out of it? That's different; Neil Zaza is the exceptionally good guitarists I know.

@jhinthepen -he is using carvin these days....:)

@jhinthepen sorry and pardon me!!, yup agreed with you,may b i just watched 1 or 2 of his video but after i watched a few of his video, mmmmm he's really not that bad, sorry for that buddy, :-)

I cannot believe some of the comments here... vile, insincere kitsch... I guess this is what Kenny G fans listen to when they're feeling a little raunchy.

Beethoven would drop his piano on him!

[ouch3994]

my friend takes personal lessons from him

[ashleyamazing19]

i got to perform with him and meet him since im in the singing angels in cleveland the drummr garrett is sooooo hotttt

[9653bs]

horrible quality! why would you upload this?! or maybe it's just bad guitar playing.

[samfrikinrocks]

i go see him every year for his christmas special in cleveland (where he's from). he's amazing every single time. ughh. so good.

[prazereszfox]

esse cara e de +

[Krysonomous]

Where can I find the tablatures of the music he plays?

[zeplynrulz]

the internetz

[uuutheuuu]

This dude can play...wow!

[affluence8]

Fucken Owned.

[fredericksl000205]

i dont remember what he used but i know it wasn't a marshall

[mustlecar2525]

man, this song seems like it's in my skill range. I'd love to learn it in time for Christmas so ill have it in time for my school's concert. absolutely beautiful song, i wish i knew what amp effects he uses...

[andrewt856]

its just reverb, delay ,and wah tbh as for amps usually a marshall :)

[CreepyNymoen]

You'll need some kind of disto effect to play this man xD but yes, add reverb and delay plus a wah. Just remember to put down the gain and kill some of your volume with the knob on your guitar. BTW don't use the wildest of your distortions xD

[emericanchaos]

yeah that's great advice. by doing this you'll sound just like neil and his $5,000 amp not to mention supporting equipment, musical knowledge and talent.

[AndrewDeLong]

this guy has just entered the top five of my all time favorite guitarists!!!

[str8edgeanarchist92]

I love how into the music he gets!

Neil's music is so beatiful that it literally brings tears to my eyes

[edis57]

I can't explain, but some how i hear Satriani and Petrucci mix (sound and techniques, overall Neil ZAZA) :DDD

[dirkuit]

he must be one of the best guitar players of the world

[crubbish123]

[Balingeo]

Il est très bon, mais un petit moment d'humilité serait le bienvenue....

[borat480]
