  • Interesting pups on that thinline tele. two shiny humbs on the bridge and neck and a single coil in the middle position. I wonder what those are.

  • @lapwiz apparently, the pickups are a Wilde Bill Lawrence L500L in the neck, an L500XL in the bridge, and a Seymour Duncan P90 in the middle

  • It's so good it get's stuck in the brain, and is so sweet to play. BADASS BLUESROCKABILLYJAZZY THEN SOME!

  • That LP intro is totally bad-ass!

  • hey i played guitar with that guy at the beginning.

  • Looks like a little Albert Collins inspired.Think Maybe?

  • THE BOY IS BADDDDDDD!!!!

    

  • 4:01  oh my. love.

  • I've been to so many concerts but keep going back to Jonny Lang! It is powerful to be with him while he sings, breathes and plays from the gut as he does

  • This guy is pretty damn badass

  • His passion and talent together create such amazing music... absolutely adore him and have since he first started out.

  • wooo!! this IS good isn't it!!!!!

  • Can't wait to see him live tomorrow night in Fredericton.

    He's an AMAZING singer.

  • jonny is awesome! yay!

  • Johnny never age's he always looks ssoooooo young

  • i wish I had a voice as sick as his... it's wicked. just awesome.. and his music is way good too

  • This guy has to be the best modern blues player around right now....he's been playing three years my senior and I'm amazed that he's this goddamn good!

  • Breath taking , jaw dropping .... It just doesn't get any Better than the feeling he puts into his music

  • I've said it before, I'll say it again: This boy can play guitar.

  • Humble and very hot let alone talented uncompared. What a package! Ill take it!

  • @Jominnesota Haha. The package is taken already. Lol!

  • @OceanPeace3 I know I found out he was married last March or April, but I can dream can't I!!!!!!!~

  • @Jominnesota Yeah, they've been married for quite a while now, but I guess you can dream. Hehe :)

  • this guy could make my pantie disappear in seconds ;)

  • Two words, marry me (:

  • Genuine talent on display!!!

  • Talent in full display!!!

  • my old man saw him on a old mans tv show, he saw this kid live. said hunny go out and buy all this kids cd's, heard it many times drivin to detroit to sell some furniture, good memories, talented kid..no lie. get what you give son

  • Awesome Cheers for sharing :)

  • I wish they had this version on itunes just for the solo!! I still cant get over it!

  • I <3 THIS SONG

  • Un-frickin-believable! shivers shivers and more shivers.

  • Agree with rentapec... the les paul tone rocks...awesome.

  • love the Scat he's doin,,

  • the tone that les paul in the intro is perfect...... its THE tone.

  • I like both Mayer and Jonny, I also like Clapton and Jimi why does it always have to be a competition with you people. It is music, and good music is good music..period.

  • @NSoncrant24 mayer calpton and jimi got more hype than this kid, this kids amazing. PERIOD, raw talent, just never got the media hype that all the other guys got, wish he did, he'd be bigger than lil wayne or eminem if the media hyped him up like they did for every other weak ass rap star, who else can jam on a guitar like that and sing like they have gold dust in their lungs, no one...

  • @NSoncrant24 Loius Armstrong summed it up: "If it sounds good, It is good"!

  • Mayer is a sellout... Lang is the REAL thing !

  • love jonny lang!! his guitar playing and singing is awesome!!!! its especially hard to do both at the same time!!!!

  • love jonny lang!! his guitar playing and singing is awesome!!!! its especially hard to do both at the same time!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Love the black shirt on you! :) rock on!!!!

  • why do you always compare musicians??? it's music, not a competition... :X

  • Give it up for Paul Diethelm! WOO!

  • B.B. King called him the future of the blues when he was 15. Enough said!!!!!!!!

  • Eww. Why is there a debate here? Might as well add my thoughts then: Lang is better than Mayer in every way. In music, in character, in personality, in soul, in guitar playing, in everything. Jonny is clearly the BEST. Just because Mayer is more "mainstream" means NOTHING. And I am a fan of both artists so don't bother me with nonsense if you're going to reply to my comment.

  • @OceanPeace3 I'm a huge fan of Jonny, and a fan of Mayer as well, but I don't see how you are in a position to judge their character, personality or soul (unless you were talking the musical definition of soul). While Jonny certainly seems to be a good person and Mayer has done some pretty douchy things, I would hesitate to judge someone I don't actually know...

  • @amethystwolf24572 When I meant "soul", I was talking "musically"...Soul music is a music genre combining elements of gospel music and rhythm and blues. Okee dokes? Who would judge somebody's "soul"? I'm not God here, hun.

  • @OceanPeace3 Exactly. You aren't God. And yet you felt it okay to judge his character and personality - isn't that exactly what someone's soul is? Or at least part of it? I was pretty certain that you meant musical soul, and very well aware of the roots of the genre. I was merely being precise.

  • @amethystwolf24572 Person, please. Your 'soul' does not equal your 'character' and 'personality.' If you want to talk more about this, send me a private message. I don't like spamming great videos and arguing with people on Youtube. Notice on my first comment, I said don't bother replying to me with nonsense. Have a nice day. ~_^

  • 0 thumbs down. Jonny Lang is that good. Fact.

  • i'm in love with him, where has he been all this time

  • sing it, jonny!!! you are the best!

  • Johnny Lang does for blues what Buddy Holly did for rock and rock.

  • And there are people that doubt the kids ability to solo on his own....

  • Heh mellowship. I can't think of many worse guitarists that put so much shitty guitar in their music then John Mayer. Lol I've seen him live at a clapton crossroads guitar fest and he was by far the worst there and there were over 25 guitar players there, including Lang

  • chills...damn he's fine lol and talented..that too..hahaha

  • Hahahaha at John Mayer. He is a whole lot of nothing when it comes to playing guitar. Only chicks like him, and ironically he is a womanizer. Also he hasnt contributed anyting or expanded upon the genre of rock and certainly not the blues.

    Jonny lang has the blues in him, and is a hell of a guitar player

  • @SuperJamtown John Mayer is a whole lot of nothing on the guitar? Shit, you may want to open your ears a little more to his music before saying something foolish like that. Him and Jonny are completely different, and yes, Jonny is incredibly soulful with his playing. But if take John Mayer to be the old 'pop star' he started his career with, listen a little more because you are sadly mistaken.

  • Comment removed

  • You rock with raw talent!! Amazing sound, you are a gift!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Want a bad a** Jonny Lang the world should wake up and hear your GREATNESS

  • Jonny is sho' 'nuff a great singer, very Soulful and good guitarist as well. Underrated

  • Your comparing apples to oranges ... Jonny far supercedes John's talent !

  • @EmpressIsles amen!

  • Intense.

  • I completely believe that John Mayer's recognized inclusion into "blues" does indeed diminish the greatness of other players before him. He chose to sell out instead of pursuing greatness in jazz so that disqualifies him, and as to his ability, we may never know if he was technically great enough to stand amongst the greats, because he does not play blues. Maybe he'll surprise us like Hendrix did with a blues album that was freaking amazing.

  • @Featherpen0517 im sorry but i must respectfully and completely disagree! the topic of him selling out is a complete other discussion but nothing about john mayer being recognized as a blues musician diminishes anything the greats have done. if you look at his work with his trio is all blues grove. infact he is the closest thing to bringing blues mainstream since SRV. he is versatile and to say he sold out is unfair.

  • @CaptainSpry Haha Stereotypes are flat out wrong. I like the comment.

  • He always kills it live! Some people can produce in a studio with their electronics, but Jonny always brings it live! A great man and a great musician!

  • amazing

  • God bless you,Jonny!

  • johnny is just amazing

  • i just saw him 2 days ago and he blew my fuckin mind shit yea

    

  • Damn.

  • Jonny is one of the greatest but sadly underated musicians of ALL time. I LOVE watching him perform!

  • Holy crap! This sounds better than the studio version, he is insanely good!

  • what's that grey thing behind the bridge?

  • @15000volts That's a giant heat sink, like you find on PCB's to help them run cooler. This one keeps his guitar from bursting into flames. ;-)

  • jonny is simply amazing...I love this guy.He's a great guitar player and has an amazing voice

  • Such a big voice for such a little guy!

  • jonny gives us eargasms and we love him

    get what you give..amen

  • @nkaak1 lol

  • @nkaak1 amen :)

  • lol...As Clapton and Gilmour said a few times already,,,,hes a prodigy since his 16...Amazing!

  • Know it for awhile, but have to say again, "THIS IS A BAD MAN". Keep it up Jonny!!!! First saw you with Aerosmith and your keeping it going very nicely. Remember, it is a long road, so be good to yourself!!!!!!

  • Hot.

  • Never heard so much soul coming out of white boy!!

  • that's a HELL of a solo!! Nasty!! Wicked! :D gooood, i've always loved this man ^^

  • why isn't he more popular??

  • @dwbryant3 the politics of music.they push that jonas bros britney crap on you.they control radio stations etc.payola alan freed 1950's it all started.

  • @dwbryant3 i know right? but he totally went gospel and shit, and his new music is not nearly as rockin'.

  • 2:52 and on is just dirty!

  • Comment removed

  • I dig an love how jonny plays the gutair. his music touches the soul cant wait to see him in Tulsa

  • lol that part where he sings with his guitar, hes no edgar winter lolol. otherwise most his songs rock

  • jonny lang rocks. period.

  • OMG... THANK GOD FOR UTUBE... LANG IS MY FAVORITE ARTIST!! I'm so glad I can view his live performaces right here. But, can't wait to see him in person singing his own songs instead of Hendrix experience. I love me some Johny Lang!!

  • My goodNess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • He's comin to town soon, can't wait.

  • and i gta admit i love mayer but jonny lang has such a unique style its mindblowing, both amazing players however check out his stuff from his first album lie to me or the one b4 with the bad medicine blues band,, its like he thought ''ok i got the minor pentatonic scale'' and now im gna kick ass and do my own thing.. I am always amazed by his style. anyone know he he gets and always has got that killer tone,, i know he used to use a telecaster and that helps but what guitar is this??

  • he is a virtuoso

  • LOVE HIM!!!!!!!

  • he's awesome very talented guitar player...great soulful voice

  • kinda ironic, dont ya think ?

  • I Think he should turn like John Mayer

    in to the blueeees

  • JOHN MAYER HAS NOTHING ON JONNY LANG...jonny is already blues and always has been if you haven't noticed. Jonny Lang is original... john mayer can keep his wack mainstream music.

  • @2beloved2009

    yeah it's blues rock. and I didn't know Lang have been in the Blues for ever since.

  • ive seen him twice and i have got to say he is very good! love his music

  • This boy can play guitar.

  • @mntoor yeah totally agree, if god hear him play he must smile and think: holy shit this one of my child´s can play :-)

  • @mntoor And the guy still says he's "just a singer"! Can you believe it?

  • i've seen him in concert SEVEN times!

  • lucky bastard! :D

  • What year is this performance from? (It's f-in' awesome!)

  • oh man,I want that telecaster!! awesome!

  • DAMN THAT SOLO IS AWESOMMMMEEE :O

  • great! but the solo was a bit over the edge for my taste..

  • damn dude this is soo awesome :O

  • really? I find that tone totally awesome! Has if he made his guitar talks, no?

  • Mayer is a "hack"? Boy, that's a pretty moronic thing to say. While it's true that Mayer is huge commercial success, that same success doesn't negate the fact that he's one hellofa song writer and great guitar player ta boot. His success doesn't minimize Lang's contributions to the genre either. Both men are hugely talented, passionate individuals.

  • @Master6String Well put, it is quite annoying to read petty comments based on emotional distortions as to the abilities of various artists. Music is not a contest, it's art, and any who can rise above through fan devotion, whether large or small in scale, must have something to offer in that regard.

  • @Master6String

    Couldn't agree more!

  • @Master6String WTF. John Mayer is the lowest form of blues and the highest form of douchebaggery. It's a shame I don't this Jonny Lang guy on the radio.

  • @Master6String well said my man, well said

  • @Master6String I'd still choose Lang over Mayer any day.

  • like this video very much. sounds. great. i was not here 2008. cheers

  • Why are we having a conversation comparing him to Mayer...Mayer is a hack and a product of mass media!

    Lang is original since his first album "Smokin."

  • The thing is - Mayer is the poster boy and the limelight dweller of the modern music era - Lang doesn't have to thrive on the attention or need it - he already has been recognised by those who matter .. SRV, CLAPTON, BB KING, STEVIE WONDER and many others.

    Lang is original, and does actually FEEL what he plays.

    Personally i think Mayer is a weak subsitute.

  • i agree , but mayer is a genius too.

  • The difference between Mayer and Lang is that Jonny Lang doesn't have to suck the media's throbbing cock (and Eric Clapton's) to get people to recognize how talented he is.

  • I love the comment :) though i don't agree.. hehe...

  • I didn't think this song could sound better live.... thanks for the upload!

  • ahh c'est vraiment parfait!

  • when was this?

  • jonny is so awesome.................wow

  • Phil Keaggey once said Johnny Lang Was the best guitarist in the world

  • Haha I believe in you lol

  • I think Roy Clark once said that about Phil, also. Taking what Phil said about Jonny - thats quite a compliment!!

  • John is a more technical player in my opinion. I think Jonny just plays what sounds good to him, he doesn't know what the heck he's playing, haha. I prefer Jonny's voice over John's. They both have different styles, so it's hard to compare.

  • I think it's a simple comparison.

    Jonny Lang has tons of soul and swagger and is original.

    John Mayer has tons of chicks and gutiars :)... and he does a great SRV impersination.

  • very well!!you are fantastic and magic!!kisses for you!!

  • wow... amazing.

  • I really have a hard time comparing john mayer to jonny lang...Two different styles of singing and playing the guitar they're in leagues of their own..Mayer in my opinion can't even touch lang but meh opinions are like ass holes everyone has one.

  • Haha you got it

  • i really dont get why they are always comparing jonny lang with john mayer. they are so different.

    its a different way of making music..

    i prefere jonny lang . his voice is so strong, and playing the guitarr. he is GOD, but they are both so talented

  • True, now I think about it. John Mayer and Jonny Lang are impossible to compare because they have way different styles. I changed my mind about one thing, Mayer is very talented but I prefer Jonny Lang. He is a hardcore singer and guitarist. Mayer, I just respect for his ability to play guitar, What I'm trying to say is that I prefer Jonny Lang most. He is my fave along with SRV, Jeff Healey, and Eric Clapton.

  • Amen :)

  • John Mayer may be a gifted musician and singer but in NO WAY compares to Jonny Lang. Saw this kid way way back when he was like 12 or 13 on the tonight show, before he even put out his first album, and he burned up the stage even at that age. And he has only gotten better with time. Sorry, when it comes to making his gee-tar wail and delivering soulful blues vocals, compared to Jonny, John Mayer is an also-ran.

  • I was lucky to see Lang when he was 15 he was amazing, and had an amazing voice at his age, and just an amazing guitarist..Lang will always be known for his guitar and his soulful vocals, i concur with everything you say sir!

  • F.A.S (Fucking Awesome Song)

  • great song, great performance, great singer!

  • I'm sick of people praising John Mayer, they need to open their eyes and listen to artists like Jonny Lang! A truly talented individual!

  • Comment removed

  • You probably haven't heard John Mayer's real guitar work, then. Look up his live performances here on Youtube, especially his work with the John Mayer Trio or from his Where the Light Is DVD. I love both John and Jonny. :)

  • Totally agree with you.....

  • Jonny Lang is a great musician. Awesome guitar solo and awesome song in general. The best version I have heard. Better than the original recording.

  • Great guy. Nice music!

  • Comment removed

  • ahah woooo! jonny is the man!

  • Austin city limits, I watched it one sat, on PBS .

    in Oregon anyway.

    This show was on.

    great show.

  • does this all concert exist on dvd or something like that?

  • Woaa!! That's fucking great! He should come in Quebec he would love that! ;)

  • to me...this is the greatest solo i have ever heard...not much to it...but so much to it at the same time..

    ROCK ON JONNY

  • I love this guy so much.:) He's awesome.

  • I love that telecaster....yeah

  • the world changed with the arrival of Jonny Lang.

  • this is insane. he is crazy. it's so unbelievable that I don't know what to do. Help me, he is good!

  • I'd love to see Jonny Lang play along side Joe Bonamassa with Joss Stone singing...Now that's a party, right?

  • I hope I'm invited.

  • Aww, Man we're all invited!!!

  • Why not "just" Jonny singing? He's like a... VERY GOOD SINGER! =)
