Hey Flask Man, I'm starting to get the impression that you might enjoy hearing a little blues guitar? I hope you like this:
This post was inspired by the impeccable Mr. Tusk.
Dat dere was sssomme smmmokin' blues, is what dat dere was...
Looks like those two performed a lot together...who knew two of my favorite guitarist would get together that much
I wasn't sure about the Alcatrazz translating because you have to get past the cheesy singing/lyrics and '80's production, but Hey I loved both incarnations with Malmsteen and Vai.
Here's Alcatrazz with Yngwie Malmsteen
Malmsteen was a virtuoso marriage of pyrotechnic guitar with classical music.
Solo Malmsteen
I found this of Zappa and Vai, I have to admit to not knowing much about Vai at this time, thnx for pointing it out
Couldn't find the rest of the interview though
"I hear Linda Ronstadt is looking for a guitar player" LOL

Hey Look, Steve Vai and Haley go to the same tailor LOL

Great find on that Zappa/Vai jam. Very happy to be adding that one to the collection. Thx!
The whole deep Zappa thing never really took hold on me, I prefer to stay in the shallow end on that kind of stuff; but holy trailblazers, that madman sure had some crazy creative talent and some phat-nasty guitar playing skillz. As for little Stevie in the leopards, not sure what to say about that, other than the obvious, both you and Haley wear them better

Most people would probably say Jimi because he was the originator. But I'll risk the death penalty for blasphemy and say SRV because he totally PWNed that jam!
RE: Guitar Solos - Flask Man - 07-09-2012
Continuing on the Hendrix vs SRV theme: Little Wing
RE: Guitar Solos - LovinDaHaley - 07-09-2012
^ Tough call, but I'm gonna have to give that one to Jimi. Awesome video! Thx
RE: Guitar Solos - Tusk - 07-09-2012
Reminds me he's just a kid himself
Hard to hear his playing until I plugged into some speakers and his part is in the right channel
RE: Guitar Solos - midnightblues - 07-09-2012
This is my all-time favorite subject guitars and guitarist. Blues guitar, jazz guitar, classic rock guitar anything with six strings. Hell I even like 12 string guitars. So when it comes to the subject of Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughn, I have to give the edge to my Boy Stevie Ray. Listen to the version of voodoo Chile when Stevie played at Carnegie Hall. You need to listen to it. So the reason why I give the edge to Hendrix is because this. The man copied after his brother Jimmy Ray, and everything he learned Stevie learned on his own. With little to no formal lessons. A lot of players do it that way. And that's not the right way but you can still play a good tune. Your harmonics and scale progressions can sound just as good as someone who's been formally trained. That's where Stevie Rays heart comes in. Better than Clapton? Better than Van Halen or Duane Allman or Jeff Beck don't know it's a hard call. But I heard Stevie Ray say in an interview that he can't read music and doesn't know chord structures or fingering but he feels with his heart and he plays what he feels I play that way also. It's not the best way to go, but it does have its rewards so as far as Little Wing I'll give that one to Stevie also. Most of his songs were played on old beat up 62 Stratocaster with a beat-up Fender amp that had one 15 inch speaker and maybe a few foot pedals like a wa wa, Or a compression sustainer. His guitar was called NUMBER ONE and he SET his action ridiculously high with 14gauge strings.Nobody can play that, but with a few simple effects pedals on old amp and guitar he put out astonishing music.and sound. The Beatles did the same, thing they had the basics but they had a sound that cannot be matched to this day.

Nice post Midnight.
Bottom line the virtuosos have their own rules. No one will ever bring the blues soul the way SRV did. RIP
