John Scofield and Pat Martino doing the classic "Sunny." Listen to the bass lines too. It really gets cooking during Scofield's solo.

Yes, it is a sunny day!

O yes.... I have the DVD well worth the asking price! Just thought it would be nice to see what turns other people on musically rather than what you might think Worthy as an artist that you believe is worth a look, I had not come across the Harrison video before so someone may come up with a Jem or two.

The bass is sounding better on that cut...gracias papas hombre.Originally Posted by Spudman
Youtube is certainly a cool site, and has a lot of great video clips from some of rock's best. Me, I like to kick back in my oversized leather chair, and enjoy a full length show more so than staring at a computer monitor (which I do all day at work.) That being the case, I have several concert DVD's that I re-visit pretty frequently, mostly because the guitar work on them is phenomenal. They are:
1.) SRV & Double Trouble - Live at the El Mocambo - Tie a pillow on your jaw so it doesn't hurt when it hits the floor. Frequently. The close-up guitar cam throughout this set rules. If you haven't seen this, prepare to be amazed.
2.) The Allman Brothers - Live from The Woods - Dickey and Warren Haynes tear into the Brothers' "old school" catalog, and spontaneous combustion ensues. As good as Duane was, and Dickey is, you'll understand why Warren Haynes is the straw that now stirs this drink.
3.) The Delicate Sound of Thunder - Pink Floyd - Perhaps the most stunning live musical spectacle I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing. Gilmour's playing is impeccable, and the band's production points drive the Floyd catalog home with amazing accuracy.
4.) The Black Crowes - Freak & Roll: Into the Fog - Live at the Fillmore - I can't help but watch this set, and think that the Crowes are the Stones of my generation. Stacked with raw, gritty tone, bucket-loads of sass, & a healthy dose of pure attitude, this band can absolutely bring the house down. And they do.
5.) Led Zeppelin (companion release to the "How The West Was Won" CD release) - Although it took nearly (20) years for a fitting live Zeppelin video document to be released, I must say it was well worth the wait. Nearly of 5 1/2 hours of unbelievavle stuff that you can run full-throttle in Dolby Digital Surround. Indeed, been a long time since we rocked and rolled . . .
I Know what you mean at the moment the DVD's I watch the most are the Cream reunion,The Eagles Farewell 1 tour & the Queen with Paul Rodgers Discs are the best way to chill out with a beer or two as well.

Guys,
Great posts! I'm enjoying the Pat Martino/John Scofield video right now. That's a really nice one.
I'm honestly blown away by the amount of great music performance videos to be found on youtube.com. I keep a list of my favorite ones in my browser for the best videos that I've seen on there. Here is my list:
Here's a Jeff Beck interview and performance from the 70's. Watch this video and see if you can tell where they got some of the ideas for the movie Spinal Tap (especially the interview section of the video)

Here's a link to a performance of some young guy that I've never heard of. He plays like Django Rienhardt (he's awesome):

Here's a link to a performance of Bereli LeGrene and John McLaughlin. Great playing on this one too.

Spud, that scofield tone is fantastic. Thanks for sharing!
I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009
Yeah, I've got lots'a Scofield albums. He is really good.Originally Posted by SuperSwede
I also have a Birelili Lagrene from when he was about 12 & doing Django stuff. Incredible!
Nelskie - I like your choice in music. My favorite youtube presentations are usually of this type as are my DVDs at home. I've clicked on some good youtube stuff while reading random posts at other forums. Some good ones have been posted here as well.
I've got a lot of stuff I'll share on YouTube, but for now here's 2 I find entertaining.
Nuno Bettencourt - Midnight Express (from Guitar Wars DVD)
This is a great acoustic tune IMHO.
Paul Gilbert - Guitar solo (from a live Mr. Big show)
Paul Gilbert shredding is axe off in Mr. Big. I love how he doesn't take himself too seriously and goofs off. The spoof of Eddie Van Halen's drill solo routine cracks me up.
Paul Gilbert & Chen Lei - Purple Haze
Jimi would be proud of Paul on this one... look for the silly stuff at the end.
BTW: I love all kinds of guitar, not just shredding - I just happened to stumble across this one.

And now for something totally different.
Part of the joy of creating music is getting to see how other people react to it. Here is a history of those reactions.

... it's funny but I've never been into the whole shred guitar thing too much, but those Paul Gilbert performances are incredible. What a monster player that guy is. How does someone get so much speed out of a pick?
I remember going to an Al DiMeola concert one time at a small club. We had seats right in front of him by the stage. He was playing an acousting guitar with Larry Corryell and Bereli Legrane. I got to see his technique up close. It's amazing how much control he has of his picking hand. He was strumming chords as fast as his single note lines. I couldn't believe it. I think that the right hand is the most important part of developing speed like that.
Thanks for sharing those links. Now, I'm ready sell all of my guitars ... I've felt this way many times over the years of playing guitar ... the same way that I felt when I saw Eric Johnson play for the first time. That was yet another "I should go home and burn my guitar" experience :-) No, I really should just go home and practice more!
-- Jim
I could post some clips from some of Paul's instructional videos on his technique if you are interested.
You are correct... a lot of his style comes from his picking hand as he picks every every note. He's a really super nice guy and a riot in person. He doesn't have an ounce of that "I'm God" ego like some players have. Even his instructional videos have loads of bad jokes and skits in them.

Paul Gilbert is a very funny dude! Love his humor.
