@michekor A l'époque où cette chanson passait sur les ondes, les solos de ZZtop étaient considérés comme rapides. Il me semble que ce n'est pas hérésie que de jouer comme le fait Petrucci. Je pense au contraire que les membres de ZZtop sont heureux de savoir que leur chanson est encore aujourd'hui considéré par les virtuoses contemporains de la guitares électrique comme l'un des morceaux fondateur du rock moderne. Je conçois cependant tout à fait que cela ne soit pas l'avis de tout le monde.
This song is the ultimate backing track for improvising... seriously... ZZ-Top is genius! Love those 3, but uuh why isn't Petrucci going all out? he's fucking awesome!
I wish Via would do some more of crazy zappa stuff. He is a funny guy and made some amazing images back then. I'm sure he can still do it, he's doing it in a lot of his newer stuff, but I think he out of all of them could pick up the zappa torch.
You know what I hate about the G3.....their inability to combine their playing, they just keep shredding one after the other but they could like one take the high and another the low register, combine modes and do harmony, like 6:35 on but better, at some point it just sounds too messy. The dudes in Maiden sometimes get it right.
@contact1araya Are you kidding me? Inability to combine their playing? They "just keep shredding one after another" because they're exchanging lead roles on purpose, not because they're inable to play at the same time...These guys could each write their own textbook on harmonic concepts. And the dudes in Maiden? Don't get me wrong I'm an avid Maiden fan as is pretty much everyone else, but they rarely use anything more than the simplest identical harmonic progressions (still sound SWEET though).
It's always great to have such legendary musicians played together. Another good example is when Eric Clapton playing with Mark Knophler, or with B.B. King..... So good for music we have them all, sometimes together.
what about timing you bunch of maths heads, what about suspense. Just because you can fill a space full of the right notes, doesn't mean you should. Let it flow. LEETTTT IT FLOWWWWW - Jim Carrey.
This is not meant to be soul...it's a cover of La Grange...if you want soul from the likes of Satch check out Cryin. These guys are as technical as it gets and that's their forte'...Guys like Hendrix invented soul and skills with complete lack of understanding of the guitar, they just knew how to make it make particular sounds....G3 is about knowledge and theory, if you want soul go to Buddy Guys. There's something for everyone in guitar, and it's NEVER to be judged if it sounds awesome!
From my point of view ... Vai totally sucked... Petrucci and Satriani kicked some ass! especially Petrucci... he had very good sound... such a sweet tone
There is NO fucking soul in this at all, It's like listening to a fucking maths lesson. Just because they've mastered the guitar doesn't make them great players. There just Nerds with a hard on for guitar. FEEL YOUR PLAYING EVERYONE, FROM THE BOTTOM OF YOUR SOUL. DON'T WORSHIP YOURSELF AND HOW GOOD YOU ARE,
Vai did not play even one cool lick here, all he does is making psychodelic shred and noises, Satriani and Petrucci on the other hand played really kick-ass rock licks here, very melodic, i couldn't stop tapping my foot ;)
La grange shouldn't be played using shred, so imo Vai failed here, he's sounding too modern for this type of a rock song
.....looks like it takes three great guitarists to do the work of one Texan!Obviously I'm only joking.Unbelieveably great piece of music.It's always fantastic to see great musicians working so well together.Really enjoyed it,so much so that I've saved it to my favourites.Thanks for posting ;-)
Sorry lads, but you can't recreate the tone of ZZ Tops' vocals! The rest of it is pretty damn good! Show me another man who can beat Vai for accuracy and i'll just end it all now!!!!!
WHAT FUCKING CRAP!!!... where did the guts of this great tune go?.. All that 'shit' they play, they play on every other fucking track they do! You could put that solo to any other wank-fest song these pricks do because it has no relevance to anything. All this is, is 3 cocksmokers proving they know their scales really really really well. I say... go fuck up your own tunes but plz leave the classics to the masters. All us here are laughing like fuck at these vids.. ha ha fucking HA!
@Michitarre Gee sorry the legends did not live to serve your ass like it was Lennons fault he got shot ,plus that Chuck Berry is still alive you dumb ass.
Haha- you are such a friendly guy! Thank you for the nice words. Maybe you want to talk about your feelings- I sense some agression here and there... But don't worry- I like you anyways :)
@BobMan250594, he is not. It's a technique he does in which he does a squeal, or pinch harmonic while using his tremelo bar. Think of the Zakk Wylde squeals but with heavey whammy bar use, and you get the idea. Search youtube for "Joe Satriani whammy bar lesson".
En verdad como proyecto es perfecto ver a los G3 (GUITARRISTAS), no se qué opinen pero también deben darles mas respeto a los demás músicos como Billy Sheehan y Mike Portnoy en el sentido que son grandes músicos y puede ser mas equitativo, pero entiendo, es G3...gracias y viva la buena música¡
