Good ol' Fil never has a bad word to say about anyone. Seems a very nice , well centured chap with a good attitude that sadly so many on youtube dont have - especially on this subject . Im sick of reading comments about who is better than who -like its the guitar olympics . Music's criteria should be " does it evoke emotion or not " Well done Fil

LOVE that you did Jimmy Herring. An often underappreciated guitarist. I was in my office about 10 years ago, listening to Aquarium Rescue Unit and my finance manager, who had played for 20 years and considered himself a great appreciator of elite guitarists, walked by and immediately noticed Jimmy's Brilliance but had no idea of who he was. It always make me a little sad when I talk about my favorites, Gilmour, Santana, SRV and Herring, and I get, Herring???

[@fusionfan6883]

I have been a massive Jimmy H fan for years. I'm a huge fusion guitar nut, following the great innovators particularly in the 70s, and Jimmy is one of the few newer players to really take forward the torch convincingly and with his own 'voice'. It says so much that John McLaughlin chose to tour jointly with Jimmy on his fnal US tour recently. Jimmy has absorbed so much, the whammy technique of Jeff Beck, Indian tonalities of John McLaughlin, legato approach in places of the incomporable Allan Holdsworth, etc. But all with his own unique sound and phrasing. This footage was taken from the new Universe festival some yeasr ago, and to my mind this is the best version of WYWY that Jimmy has recorded, just so beautiful!

[@fusionfan6883]

By the way I think this is one of the most beautiful, emotive and jaw dropping live guitar performances I have ever seen bar none! It invokes a physical feeling in the pit of my stomach, raw emotion at a spiritual level only experienced when witness to pure beauty. For me this is a desert island piece, I could isten to it for ever.

[@wingsofpegasus]

I saw Herring a lot with Phil & Friends tours from 2001/2002 and with The Dead. Phil & Friends 2002 featured Warren Haynes and Jimmy Herring.

It was a monster.

What a great review of a guitarist who's been in the top tier of performers for a long time, but not as widely known as others. Kudos to you for spotlighting him!

Sounds/resemble Celtic wind instruments like the uillean pipes or bagpipes. What he’s doing is very similar to what they do.

Then he went out west and became a student of Scott Henderson, and he said that changed everything. He just finished accompanying John McLaughlin on McL.'s last U.S. tour. They would play a set each, and then jam on Mahavishnu music. McLaughlin has said that besides Jeff Beck, Jimmy is the only person he has heard do justice to that music. Thanks again !

He can not only evoke the style of Jeff Beck (whom I never found very interesting personally Wired was okay but I was over it by Blow by Blow) but also Garcia, Duane Allman, Clapton and many more Jeff on several occasions has allowed Jimmy to play Sophie his prized white Strat, August 2018 Jimmy personally thanks Beck "for decades of inspiration.

Hello, Wings of pegasus. Yes, I get what you mean about pedal use instead of rolling knobs like Roy, but due to my lack of experience and untrained ear,they're like comparing apples and oranges.Which is good for me because it's giving me a wider variety of sounds and movements and technique to hear and see and learn from.Can't get enough.

He shares a lot with Jeff Beck in terms of the swell / bend technique. In regard to you comment about his picking technique, notice how the rotational axis of his picking hand is not parallel nor coincident with the center of his forearm. That is, he 'wobbles' his hand. As to pick-holding, compare Steve Morse, Pat Metheny, Al DiMeola, Allan Holdsworth, John Petrucci, etc. All phenomenal player but with different approaches ...remember Les Paul? :-) Great video and analysis!

Premier Guitar magazine did a "rig rundown" with Jimmy. Here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZzSgY2PlMt3ZsU Short version: '64 Super Reverb head into a 4x10 cabinet with Tone Tubby alnico speakers. Second output (presumably the extension speaker jack) into a THD Hot Plate. The Hot Plate has a line out -> volume pedal -> Axe Fx (for stereo reverb only) -> Crown solid state amp --> Marshall 4x12 stereo cabinet. I think Jimmy uses two volume pedals. The one before the Axe Fx is used to control the reverb level. It's unclear where the other one is in the signal chain. Jimmy's only other pedal that he mentions is a Hughes and Kettner OD pedal.
