Man! Love this era of fusion music. Andy can remind me ( at times) of Holdsworth, Fripp, Gambale and others in tones and chords. But at the end of the day, this is Andy Summers. He has his own unique style and “ phrasing “ on guitar. A classic guitar giant!

[@reidwhitton6248]

The years went by too fast. I remember those times like it was yesterday. Listening to Holdsworth, Tribal Tech, Chick Corea, etc.

[@dhoyp14]

Have you listened to the LP Andy did with Fripp? I Advance Masked

[@reidwhitton6248]

[@GuitarGangsta]

This has to be one of my top all time surprise KZbin finds WOW. It’s like a good dream!

[@Simonewhitesim-1music]

Yeah.

[@benjaminhawthorne1969]

It is MAGICAL to see & hear people actually play a real composition that came from a man's heart, not a committee meeting. Simply HEAVENLY !music!

[@widescreennavel]

Wow! Great sound! TY! Andy Summers, a world treasure, and one of my top 2 guitarists of all time. He hit me at just the right time. His tone and technique are unsurpassed. Thanks for all the wonderful music, you made my life so much richer. Long Live Andy Summers!!!!!

[@Ineedanewbrainwashagent1.]

Yes, Andy summers is the greatest.

[@golfhound]

I've enjoyed listening to Andy Summers ever since the Police's first album. Now that we see his jazz fusion side in the video above, I'm convinced he's every bit as good as Alan Holdsworth. In fact, I'd say better without all of the weird spaced out scales that Alan is known for. Andy is one of my favorite guitarists. I've been playing guitar since 1975. I love his use of chorus. Andy plays chords I've never seen before. totally mindblowing.

[@BurnsTennis]

I bought this album way back in 1990. Doug Lunn played bass on the album, fretless. Andy always reminded me of John Goodsall. Check out the band Fire Merchants from the 1990s. John Goodsall, Doug Lunn & Toss Panos on drums (& Chester Thompson).

[@BurnsTennis]

You can find Fire Merchants footage on KZbin.

[@MobiusBandwidth]

you ought to read his autobiography, he started out wanting to learn jazz, and experimented, playing every possible chord with alternate root notes in part of his quest for musical knowledge. a fascinating life.

[@skineyemin4276]

Andy is a great guitarist, but Holdsworth is an alien. Don't get it twisted.

[@natrixxvision6997]

I think Andy is a much more musical player than Holdsworth. I like Holdsworth too it’s just,…Andy has more of a singing style.

[@LuisZetaChile]

hey friends, the track at 12:42 is "World Gone Strange". From the album of the same name released in 1991. Greetings from Chile, where Andy was performing concerts a couple of times.

[@jimearp1095]

Charming Snakes- GREAT album! Andy gives gracious space to his accompanists and Chad Wackerman is astonishing . . . and the best guitar tones in the universe . . .

[@blankfrancine]

Great stuff!

[@wesworach7441]

So much more to Andy Summers besides Every Breath You Take or Roxanne !!! ...

[@petewoodroffemusic]

I love the way 90's progressive jazz bands all look like they're extras out of Miami Vice !!!

[@JoEsp]

love that outside of the The Police, each member has a successful solo career. Stewart Copeland as a film scorer aswell as a number of solo projects, Andy Summers w/ his own jazz/fusion project and Sting on his solo career. All 3 of them are very talented.

[@BurnsTennis]

That's the thing though. Due to their musical education, each guy could have gone in any musical direction prior to the Police. Not many famous pop bands have that kind of musicianship.

[@reidwhitton6248]

Andy's Charming Snakes is a great album!

[@mojito6629]

I prefer this kind of Andy Summers solo project's music than when he played old The Police famous songs in his solo project

[@waynefoote3781]

What a gem! Thank you for this very different and entertaining side of the great Mr. Andy Summers!

[@dlux703]

I like that Andy presents a palatable framework that doesn't exclude "crossover" listeners, but sweeps us up, and along for the ride.

[@johnunderwood3132]

I wish I was at this one. I hope everyone in the audience knows how awesome this is to become

[@andromalio1983]

First time I see Andy Summers play an exotic Klein guitar. I always saw him as a very orthodox guy in terms of guitar format to use. As for the sound..very clean execution with his typical chorus tremolos and ninth sixth chords as he uses in The Police. Genius

[@stevealexander7772]

Andy has been very unorthodox in his career. His telecaster was highly modified. He was a pioneer with effects and sounding like no other guitarist in the 70ies and 80ies. He was also an original user of the guitar synth.

Darryl Jones before become a Rolling Stone musician.

[@skineyemin4276]

Those Europeans (or their descendants) really try to have as few shots as possible of the only black musician (and one who played with Miles, Peter Gabriel, and Sting) in a quintet on a stage where everyone can be seen.

[@kth42]

The concert wasn’t recorded in Europe, but in Montréal, Canada. And the keyboard player, Mitchel Forman, is not shown much either, apart from when he‘s soloing. So I don‘t think it‘s an issue of race. Have you watched the video until the song "Blues for Snake" at 44:55, where Darryl Jones is featured extensively?

[@KyleKalevra]

For anyone who appreciates smooth jazz as much as they appreciate a well coifed mullet, this video is for you.

[@benjaminhawthorne1969]

Judging by the mullets on the vocalist & drummer, I'd guess this was recorded in 1988. See kiddies, this is why you want to be cautious of jumping on the latest bandwagon. Find your personal style and rock it forever!

[@jeshkam]

1991, but mullets were still in back then, especially in Canada, South America and Eastern Europe. And Germany ofc.

[@ER-me1ii]

Don’t shoot me. I grew up on the Police. I always thought Andy was an interesting guitarist. Maybe I didn’t pursue his work after the Police out of apathy. Frankly, I never got the hype around him. Shame on me. He may not shred like Holdsworth or others playing music of a similar vein but to me just shredding is boring AF anyway. To the point, decades later I finally see he’s a true maestro. His playing is so authentic and he’s one of “those” that plays his way, a style he pioneered. Wow. I’m really late to the party. PS Chad only plays with legends.

What are you talking about, dude?

[@Andy-hh7nl]

Andy's a great guitarist. He's no McLaughlin or Holdsworth but he fits in well with this band. He and Fripp were phenomenal on " I Advance Masked"

[@bassmonk2920]

Andy skillfully adapts his style and compositions to fit these high level musicians and I am sure they were paid well....
