[@melwynz]

who needs a vocalist when you have a guitarist like this.....

[@ESmithStringSlinger]

That's what a lot of us have been saying about Jeff Beck for decades,also. Very spirited performance by Andy here.

[@timirdas7747]

@@ESmithStringSlinger Does'nt Mr.Timmons "somehow" represent Jeff Beck?

[@ESmithStringSlinger]

​@@timirdas7747 Quite likely, and maybe a hero of Tim's? Tim has more of a Classical approach.

[@martianshoes]

The vocalist from Andy’s old band was in Tokyo Fist for a while, with the guitarist from Trixter.

[@timirdas2905]

True.. This version is really as if the guitar is screaming it's lungs out to his lover..

[@dilo777]

Andy Timmons is one of the great guitarists! His tone is sooooo good! and his melodic sense is unparralled!

[@iyanlaksanaputra8212]

Sure for me, apart from andy timmons, eric johnson, and richie kotzen have the same ability as well.

[@fitnessmusic3329]

Greatest guitar live performance in the History of electric guitar by FAR. Simply ridiculous and unreacheable.

[@Kevinrhoe]

The guy just poured his heart out right there on stage. Beautifull.

[@angelofwar9223]

Definitely agreed wow 👌

[@MartinBergnerGuitar]

this may be the greatest guitar live performance i've ever seen, from clapton to malmsteen, from van halen to becker, from vai to loomis and everything in between... i always wonder why timmons isnt in a top ten rating of the best of all time, his groove, his phrasing and his compositions are absolutely outstanding even among the greatest, i always thought he deserved a place in their hall of fame :/

[@BeeZhar]

M47riX1 It's because Andy don't care about being famous. This guy is so humble... I'm not saying that Vai, Satriani or Van Halen are cocky but they are more "Showmans" than him. Andy is just straight forward, he come on stage and play with his soul, this is just what i want from a musician. Andy is an awesome person, i had the chance to see him live in France in March and that was intense ! My all time favourite guitarist, with Guthrie Govan.

[@Bill_Woo]

M47riX1 Well, there's Zappa's Black Napkins on Baby Snakes (Halloween Palladium), and Hendrix at Woodstock - but this deserves to be in their company. This is a masterpiece.

[@BeeZhar]

Patrick Gibson I can't agree more sir ;)

[@dennoow]

MartinBergnerGuitar yup. Best guitar playing I've ever heard.

[@elmotociclista9296]

MartinBergnerGuitar in a dvd of his, he added a security cam kind of recording, from the studio they were recording this, so he says it was kind of late and it was missing the lead guitar track so he just wanted to jam along the backing track just to sense what they were going to do the next day. So they just plugged a zoom fx processor, the guitar, and he played along, just making one brief pause to correct a mistake... that recording came out so well that it stayed the same for the final mix, so yeah, this piece is 100 improvised... this guy is from another planet, and this night was on fire, I suggest you look up the full concert and jam along paul Gilbert and steve vai, I know it's not about winning but he wipes the floor with them that night.

[@Hercules_tootoo]

One of the greatest guitar solos ever played.

[@yavuzerol2365]

04:06 might be the best bent note ever played

[@LikeTotallyDouchey]

Damn, his bends and control are amazing!

[@chromeboy37000]

because of satch !!! :D

[@lelov1392]

Kappa plus his tone is just amazing, the subtle nuances here and there, and lastly his phrasing is sublime. I’ll pick this seven days a week over any Govan stuff!

[@jern5]

This is that kind of performances that sound much better than the studio version !

[@rockingstar3534]

I have watched this over and over. Still amazed by the fact that Andy is not even looking at his fretboard most of the time. Awesome!

[@soloking2141]

Dudes just flat out in the zone here. Feeling each note so hard. Never looks down, awesome.

[@rotemshoshani424]

Definitely in the zone Few ppl that have walked this earth are/were feeling a fretboard the way he does here

[@yellowsubmarine7294]

This is criminally underrated music. Just astounding to realize that there are people losing their shit over gucci gang and other subpar genres of music and tend to overlook the masterpiece that is this musician.

I've always considered Andy Timmons to have THE perfect guitar tone. Always seems to be spot on.

[@amateuracoustics]

I´ve listened to this a few hundred times over the years (no joke). And there is not ONE performance that comes close to this, oddly enough not even by other renditions from Andy himself. Everything is just beyond perfect, it's sublime.

[@Bill_Woo]

You are quite correct. The Milan, Italy version is my nominee for second place :) Not better, but different. Then again, really astonishingly he always plays it differently, always, and never suffers for the changes. F'in genius.

[@dennoow]

Pedro Pazmiño I've witnessed him doing this live 3 times, the 2nd time he completely blew us away and the entire venue was silent and filled with the emotion on display here :) But don't forget Simon Philips here! Great interpretation by him as well!

No words to describe what he played at 4:03...👏

[@SpecialEd44]

Tone master, Melody master, and his Timing is by far the best in the business. You will never hear him get ahead of the drummer. His lines both fast ones and slow ones always start and end right in the pocket of the groove. Unbelievable!!!! If you are a fan of Instrumental guitar than this is the greatest 7 minutes on KZbin.

[@_azu7]

Remember When Guthrie Govan Regret Solo By guthrie govan while i clearly believe guthrie is above him in technicality and musiciality cuz GG the most dangerous player in the world right now , andy timmon's style speaks to me more , like i love this stuff more

Andy is I feel the most in touch emotional guitar composer of our generation (1960-? ) He is a rare bird -that has all the technical abilities of a Jeff Beck and yet has the compositional soul of McCartney/Lennon. Although I was never able to attain the ability of a good/great guitar player -Music has consumed my .I feel sorry for the people who have not received the soul/art of music - the greatest art form. Andy Timmons one of the most gifted composers/musicians ever.

+mronemanband1 How so? Cause Vai play a billion notes in a sec? Both are great but I think Andy's Melodies are better. Opinions are ok right? Theres so much more to the guitar than shredding (for example) David Gilmore, technically as good as Steve Vai, NO, but his melodies are way past Vai. Everyone has their own taste but the more I listen to Andy the more I think he is a perfect marriage of melody and technical player. Not over the top and not boring.

I know this comment is 10 years old but i love seeing someone show respect for Andy's bandmates. There are a lot of different ones over the years but Andy clearly knows how to pick them.
