@Stendall Er... well the problem there is that the title says 'Guthrie playing to Albert King style track', not 'Guthrie playing exactly like Albert King'. Therefore there is no reason for him to play slowly, he has immense technical capacity so why not use it when improvising over a backing track, which is really the thing being advertised anyway? Besides speed is not intrinsically associated with a lack in 'feeling'. I'm fed up with seeing unfounded criticism of such a great musician.

Well I think the solo sounds just like Guthrie and the backtrack reminds me of Albert King so I think the title is correct: "Guthrie Govan playing to Albert King style track

@beanboxx Indeed, it's fucking ignorant, oh well.. There will always be comments like that mate :-) Maybe it's just better to let it be lol

@NameSupplied this is old but I hope you actually listened to what XavSch was trying to explain you. Please, forgive Guthrie for having dedicated all his life to his instrument and to music. BB King, Santana, etc do you think those guys dedicated so much to their instrument? The answer is no, they didn't. They learned what notes always sound good over such and such chord and that was that for them, they never bothered to develop their playing to such heights.

@beanboxx I'm with you on this. Technical ability and soul have stood in false opposition for too long - 'as if ignorance is a more honest form of knowledge.' (Clive James said that, not me). Isn't this an exercise built upon the stylistic foundations of King's playing?

then ill believe you. yours truly ; dithers.

I don't care Who's Style,or If it's to fast,or slow, That Man can Rock the Shit out of that Guitar!

Guthrie and Bonamassa have completely different backgrounds and life experiences, and are completely different players. Joe grew up around blues and 60's/early 70's rock, because of his father. Guthrie was someone who discovered the guitar and wanted to play everything that caught his ear.

So Bonamassa might have a little more authenticity when it comes to the blues, but Guthrie is a much more well-rounded guitar player. .
