David Sylvian - Red Guitar - Live, The Town Hall, NYC '02

[nancyl2]

:-) TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SHORT. Oh yeh!!! That piano solo; Sakamoto playing David smiling as the melodious piano notes are 'tinkling chillingly through my core of my BEING-NESS." and David's guitar continuing a beautiful voicing all its own. (had to go find the lyrics to hear the rest) Red is my Fave' color so the "RED GUITAR" title caught my attention.:-) Yep I was looked at by people 'as Devil in a Red Dress'. What a Hoot. Songs by the greats ahead of their time. Thanks for posting moodyb :-)

This is a gift form the GOD'S :-))) SIgn viewing #22,297 (has the angel code jumping out at me #222 "Everything will be all right..." Yep pretty cool. LOVE THIS Gem; the awesome Sakamoto and David are such a combo of greatness. Wish I could have been there LIVE. Chills. I found this AM; missed this gift because when I could not go back to sleep; I came here and found this gift. OHHHHH THanks to those that share these wonderful Gems <3 to you dear Angel BEing. XXXOOO Yummie sounds. Blessings.:)

今、あの日本女性が、いないから、教授に　頼っているのでしょうか。

[leoray1234]

Damn. Ryuichi is brilliant, and David sounds better than ever.

[xxwarm]

[uItravioIet]

Sylvian looks so happy to have his old friend playing at his side.

[weinerbongo]

Can anyone tell what the chords are?

[leoray1234]

@weinerbongo Verse: (Bmaj7-F#maj7-Bmaj7-Ebmin) repeat over entire verse....Chorus: F#min7-Emaj7-G#min7-F#min7) repeat over entire chorus....simple!

[weinerbongo]

@leoray1234 Thanks, that's my favorite David Sylivan song.

[attilatheinvader]

[despoolkop]

[Maxiclaudi]

Must have missed this track before.. still great, especially with Ryuichi near!

[wordtomorrow]

jazzy.

[strangeparty]

Wow. That was great.

[superbawestside1]

He was amazing live when I saw him back in 1988... I also saw Ryuchi Sakamoto solo tour too in the same year!

[ravarbru]

[Slacktest]

Do you have the complete song? This is great! TY

[themachman19691]

great upload.thanks

[14me14u]

I can tell how much David is enjoying having Sakamoto on the keybrd. Sakamoto takes it where no one else can.

[topchefycool]

[dogali1667]

anche io , ma mai che abbia fatto red guitar !!

[ariawoo]

it's rare, man.thank you so much!

[spyroks]

I was there - what a great show that was!! Had seen him again there on the Secret of the Beehive tour - YES!!

[bryanferrysfan]

David and Sakamoto have aged gracefully. I think we all would agree

[olddawgnewtricks]

Lovely. Thank you.

[moodyb]

Yes indeed! It was a fantastic show!

You may remember a certain person shouting out "You rock Dave!" and making the man laugh on stage!

God knows who that might've been!

Lol, I'd better not say anymore methinks! ;-)

[sylvianblue]

Wow what a great posting - nice to see Sylvian obviously really enjoying Sakomoto's playing too...a definite favourite!

[KimiraCat]

超びっくり！多分Red Guitar唯一のライブでは？この曲、無調音階みたいなので坂­本さんしか弾けないからか？とにかく、ほとんどの東京ライブをみ­てるけどライブリストに載ったのを見た事ないです。デビュー曲な­のに・・・でびちゃんって・・

I went all David Sylvian 's live at Tokio. And I saw all live rist he has played at world tours. Even at the first solo tour, he has never played Red Guitar! (I saw Mr. Peter Barakan complained after the show.) Red Guitar has atonal code. So I've been thinking that another player could't play as well as Mr. Sakamoto. I was convinced it. Anyway, I was surprised.

[dermotoblong]

thats fantastic cheers!!

[hardiestgirl2012]

Totally amazing ... the first time i can see Ryuichi Sakamoto with Mr.Sylvian performing together!

and most of all this song ... it was the first that i liked from "Brilliant Trees"

So i must to say this again (sorry Chris lol)

Thanks to you for sharing this

one with US

you have a heart of gold :D

[Maxiclaudi]

Never seen this video before, and never seen David and Ryuichi perform live before together either.

[gone4aturd]

funky

[nicck]
