British guitarist reacts to Orianthi SHREDDING over Jimi Hendrix!!!

[@sukonmiskunk5696]

a little story... She is from my home town in Adelaide. Steve Via was playing, so ofc we got tickets. So here we are in the crowd, kind of up the front as the support act was playing.. and this tiny blond girl comes up and starts chatting to me and my friend. She couldnt have been older than 15.. so we're chatting and she asks if we play guitar and ofc our answer was yes and how we have seen Steve Via before .. well after about 15 mins .. the support band finishes up and the stage guys get ready for Steve to come out...we say good bye and she walks away.. well..you can see where this is going right..next thing, shes up on stage ripping the hell of her guitar and me and my friend are just standing there with our jaws on the ground..no one knew who she was and after doing some research the next day we found out her name..Orianthi..that night she lit up the stage, you can imagine how technical Steve Via is, and she was just as good.. amazing talent..as you can see..i think she was 15 years old...

[@wingsofpegasus]

Cool!

[@jonnymak1079]

I never seen a performance from her where i could not see she feels every note. I can feel her feel every note... She is untouchable.

[@chrischism2333]

Wow! This is the first time I’ve ever seen her. She freakin’ ROCKS!! Also she’s very easy on the eyes ❤️ Thanks for sharing this one Fil

[@wingsofpegasus]

No problem 👍☺

[@kpag3030]

I’ve always loved her flavor since she hit the scene. She has a unique feel and man she just wales. Love it.

[@pbracey1]

I remember her being hired by Michael Jackson to be the lead guitarist on his scheduled 'This Is It' tour. She played in the rehearsals in L.A. prior to Jackson's death.

Your concluding thoughts about playing your own style is very true. Glad to see you expressed it in a genuine way.

I'm glad you finally covered her. She's one of the very best shredders and deserves a cover. You covered her well, Fil! It's great to see another female guitarist featured too.

[@Dcey-cy2wc]

Yes Orianthi is a awesome. When she played with Alice Cooper, man she did it with style. She deserves more recognition . PS She is really pretty as well.

[@SuperJBrowne]

She's kinda generic as a player, million no-name bedroom shredders are just as good but get no recognition.

'Ocean' by another Australian John Butler. An incredibly soulful 11 string amplified acoustic instrumental that affects people deeply - hence 40 million views.

[@wingsofpegasus]

[@lupcokotevski2907]

​@@wingsofpegasus No worries. Another great Australian song with fantastic guitar work is 'Its a Long Way There' (1975) by the Little River Band, lead guitar and string arrangement by Ric Formosa - my favourite guitar track along with Elliot Randall on Steely Dan's 'Reelin' in the Years'. Cheers.

[@TaraLyz]

This video is why Orianthi is one of my favorite guitarists! I also love her voice & really wish her singing career had taken off better than it did. Btw, congrats on making it to 31K!

You were very, VERY kind and professional about that particular performance. She definitely is talented, though. Hopefully, she learns that it's not always about technique and skill, but also about feeling and emotion. If she can ever find the right balance, she could become legendary.

[@amandacastelo6]

How can you beat this, a beautiful young blonde who can melt you're face with her guitars skills.

[@CATTI53]

Thank you Fil. No doubts she is very good. I liked her more in other gigs. Unfortunately, when comparing with Jimi, is not simply the technicalities but the interpretation here that I’m missing. With Jimi you could feel, see and hear on each licks the full integration of the man with the guitar and the music coming out.

Thanks!

[@barryoconnor721]

I appreciate a respected British guitarist analyzing our American musical styles. It reminds me of grandpa telling me, "Ok kid. You got the Wildwood Flower down. What else you got?" You're awesome, Wings Of Pegasus. This has led me to your music.

[@christoh711]

i bumped into Orianthi once in Singapore. I am not a big fan of her tone but she can definitely play

[@TheSillykelly]

Good one. Love her. Also a big fan of Nita Strauss, would love an analysis on her.

[@wingsofpegasus]

👍

[@greenworm7915]

She is phenomenal!! Just watched her with Billy Gibbons doing “LaGrange” and “Sharp Dressed Man”. What a jam session!! ♥️ Had to check if you had reviewed her! 👍

[@mlhesler68]

I always wanted to play like Roy Buchanan doing Sweet Dreams such a master of the telecaster.

[@dlux703]

Thanks for this one Fil. I've admired Orianthi since I first discovered her, but now that I've discovered Samantha Fish, she is my current female favorite. Ms. Fish has soul that Orianthi will probably never grasp, even though her technical skills are notable.

[@wingsofpegasus]

Yeah Samantha is cool!

[@lazzy2day]

I like Samanta's grit.

[@BulldogBill]

This such an old video of Orianthi that it was pointless to use it to analyse her style and playing it is at least 9 years old!! This version from Orianthi published in published in March 2018 would have made more sense to use. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aX7Nm2ykZ9WAb68

[@74dartman13]

I like that she did her own way. She's got talent and proved it, playing to a packed show! Something you said reminded me of when I first started to play. I was jamming with a seasoned veteran guitar player. It was my turn for a lead. I did my own thing, taking licks from different guitarists, and making up my own. I did something that surprised the experienced player! Afterwards, he had me teach him the lick! It was awesome! I had only played about a year and I was teaching an old guy! It was then that I realized I'm not going to try and copy every song exactly like the original...just do it my way!👍😎🎸🎶

[@patrickj9061]

Much love to Orianthi and the time she's put in. She will melt your face every time. However, for me, she's a Steve Vai shredder. She can play anything however many of these shredders will never find harmony or the ability to write songs which connect with people, that is the one trick many shredders cannot copy from Eddie.

[@wingsofpegasus]

👍

[@delorangeade]

She can certainly play but it's all so 1980's and hair metal it makes me wince.

[@melvynobrien6193]

[@peterkinsman929]

So proud to be an Australian! Hard to tell with a name like Orinathi I think Jimi would be proud of the version. Thanks again for your very informative commentaries Fil .

[@izaklitwar1509]

Hey Phil, I enjoy a lot your explanation about playing on guitar concerning several icons. However, I will ask you to comment on one of Orianthi's own songs, "How do you sleep". It's an incredible blues song and I adore her playing strings with bare fingers and then changing to the pick. A lot of soul, passion and drive in her playing and she's an excellent bluesy voice. For me, she's now the best guitarist out there in the world.

[@knawl]

Its not Voodoo Chile, everybody seems to say that but it isn't, that's a longer slower tune, this is Voodoo Chile Slight Return, well sort of.

[@wingsofpegasus]

This is definitely Voodoo Child, a lot of people get it confused with 'Chile' which is the longer instrumental jam 👍

[@iwannarock101]

Wauw, this is great for beginners! I wish someone would've explained me this when starting out, I fell in the "young guitar teacher trap". Hired some smuck who was insanely good in our "village", but he spend a whole hour sweeping scales - ONLY - to impress me I guess.. For 45 minutes straight! 50 bucks right out the window. Edit: Just occurred to me, not even the sweeping he explained(!)

[@pauljohnson7382]

Man, I like her. Not familiar with her but she can definitely play! Great advice on studying techniques from different players. Rocked it again Fil! 🤘 Suggestion for review: Wojtek Pilichowski- I know bass players aren't your usual, but the dudes skills are mad.

[@wingsofpegasus]

Thanks!

[@CharlieMcowan]

Fil, don't understand how I missed you covering Orianthi. Santana said he was handing the torch to her...as you know, she can play a pretty mean blues, too. But, above all, thanks for using the expression "letting it all hang out" - don't think I've heard that for a good fifty years 😉

The best Hendrix cover is Frank Marino doing "All Along The Watchtower."

[@knawl]

@Mark Five half right ,not exactly, Hendrix's arangement ia a lot different than Dylan's original and Dylan liked the Hendrix version so much he started doing it that way himself. Marino did a great job though. His Johnny Be Good was great too, of course the original of that was Chuck Berry but I think Marino's originals don't get enough credit

[@melvynobrien6193]

[@paulablissett9396]

Hey! i agree with you! first thing that popped in my head, IS DEF. her own style, Jimi didn't use the Wha, as much in this song he had a longer intro, with less Wha.. Like i have said, no one , plays like Jimi did, he was and still is King Rock Guitarist! Went down in history as the best, bar none, his VISION, Is still alive today... I have to confess, i did know Jimi very well,he was a very good friend of my then husband, b4 i met and married him... That pic is of me, taken August of 2018, just so you know i'm not mentally ill, i have been called out on what i'am telling you a few times...., i first saw Jimi perform in 68, with , @ that time, my boyfriend and 2 of our best friends, he was the real deal, best person i ever met, we were back stage @ most of his concerts seeing him live was ABSOLUTELY MESMERIZING, none other like him and his performances... Getting back to Orianthi, she is a great guitarist, because she has her own styles, i enjoyed this video very much, first i have ever heard of her.... Rock On.....\M/

I will have to say that the energy is there, but there are only a couple references to the original. It makes me think about what Eric Clapton said about people wanting him to hear Hendrix. He alluded to the fact most musicians could never understand what was going on guitar wise because Hendrix was giving a master class with every note. Hendrix wasn't just playing but listening and feeling every note. This younger generation is paying homage to possibly the greatest guitar musician ever but there is so much missing it makes me sad. There was so much going on in the Woodstock performance of Voodo child that If you just copied some of the bends the song would resonate better. Please show LEWIS FLOYD HENRY WUTALLICA because its one man band stuff being performed live on the streets of London. Its for younger generations that want to be somewhat innovative.

One of many grinding talented guitar players...if we had known all the secrets to the trade we all would have been Jimmy Page, Hendrix, Satriani, and EVH, and the list goes on and on..., I mean “You Tube “ is chucked full of maddening guitar players! The problem isn’t their talent nor technique....their problem lies in in their lack of invention. I have written hundreds of songs...some pretty good, and I tell my wife, “no one can write music 🎼 like me”...I am an individual, and I am talented...just missed the boat ⛵️ on stardom...I did tour with Charlie Daniels and Nantucket but never got close to those big city lights! Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. And I did sign thousands of autographs! It was fun, and nothing beats when the stadium lights come on and u hit those first chords and the sound carries from the floor to ceiling PA all the way back of the arena! Nothing better...Nothing.

@Wei Chan Vladislov oh geez, now we have the nerdy spelling police invading here, BTW Jimmi, if you want to get picky, wasn't a name Hendrix really wanted, it was sort of thrust upon him as a stage name, even the spelling.

[@arthurrendbeau6782]

Jimi is the name ! Are you a big fan? :)

[@knawl]

I just spelled it Jimmi to bait more spelling police, guess I caught one LOL. Hendrix was one of the greats but there are a lot of greats. And Jimi was just a fake stage name for publicity reasons, no big deal and no reason to get worked up about. We all know his real name was James Marshall Hendrix and somebody else decided he should use the name and spelling Jimi because it would sell better and he didn't come up with it. He was just an easy going guy who went with the flow because getting to play music for a living was more important to him than some stupid name. There is a lesson there I think.

I saw her play with Alice Cooper in Belgium, and boy, she can shred like a queen. Her guitar game is pretty darn tight and she knows her "weapon of choice" quite well, if not, very well. It was great to see how much Alice enjoyed watching her play, and she was a perfect fit for his show too, pretty yet a bit scary, perfect Cooper material hehehe. Now, "in other news", i've been looking at artists you might not have covered in your videos yet, and failed a couple of times because you already done a piece on them... or two.. lol Now, this all had me digging deeper in my collection, and.. i think i found something you might know, but i am pretty sure of you have not yet covered in the slightest. So, my suggestion for today... Cuby and the Blizzards. Dirty, old, smokey, dusty, country road blues, from the Netherlands! As by now, i pretty much found out, you know everyone i know, and a few i did not know (ty for showing me them), so i stay on mission to find stuff you will enjoy, but do NOT know. (but i am quite sure you know Cuby, but if not.. then yay!!) Keep on making these great videos Fil :D (and i'll keep bugging you with suggestions lol)

She brought a classic song down to her level of playing is what I hear. SRV took it to another level to my ears. I'll stick with him.

This such an old video of Orianthi that it was pointless to use it to analyse her style and playing it is at least 9 years old!! This version from Orianthi published in published in March 2018 would have made more sense to use. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aX7Nm2ykZ9WAb68

Haven't we heard enough mediocre Hendrix covers?

[@wingsofpegasus]

I'm not sure, Hendrix covers are very tough to pull off well!
