Eric Johnson - Down Here On The Ground

[@garythomas4431]

Eric is so versatile and respectful of his influences. Classy, great player.

[@hartistry1957]

We need people like Johnson to hold on to this history.

[@DavidJEyre]

Just saw him play this last night in a concert in Spokane WA - mesmerizing! Had no idea how far this song went back and that he played it 36 years ago.

[@OuttakedPerformancesTM]

Perfect! He even covered the keyboard parts

[@nickkokenspargermusic8666]

What brand of guitar is that?

[@guihowe85]

Cool

[@fanoboss]

It looked like a Ferrington at first but HOLY MOLY, def a Stevens guitar. thnx

[@ColKorn1965]

People don't appreciate Wes Mongomery enough

[@broken_disco_ball]

Really? He’s a jazz guitar god

[@ejtonefan]

You must not listen to jazz. Wes is right up there with Coltrane, Davis and Clifford.

[@MattFoleysGhost]

Really? The fact that any time a guitarist plays an octave it sounds like Wes seems like ample tribute.

[@mozdickson]

Fawn Lebowitz - he probably ages well as he spend all day in doors out of the sun practicing on his git! His cartilages and tendons are probably less so preserved!

[@FVYMTHEBAND]

Why mimic the original? I rather listen to the original than someone mimicking it.

[@joenoneofyourbusiness6487]

He looks like a teenager , but he's 30 in this.

[@00Mones]

@ZephaniahZion looks like a Duesenberg, i dont think it's a gretsch.

[@PSYCHOLOGYZOOM]

It is a Yamaha you IDIOT!

[@sgcim956]

He copied Wes Montgomery's version of that song, including the solo, note for note. He even played some of Herbie Hancock's piano fills.

[@OuttakedPerformancesTM]

sgcim It's a cover, friend.

[@sgcim956]

In jazz, you don't 'cover' a tune by copying the improvisation of the original artist note for note! You usually copy the melody, but usually you don't copy the arrangement, and you NEVER copy the improvisation of the original artist note for note.

[@galenstone9097]

sgcim The Jazz police have ruled..

[@ryleitdept]

It's a tribute giving respect to the original arrangement you bastard.

[@sgcim956]

@@ryleitdept Yeah, he played the arrangement great, but nobody plays the improvised solo, too. He made up for it by playing his own solo the next time he was recorded playing "DHOTG" live, but it wasn't half as good as Wes' solo, IMIMHO. He should probably stick to fusion.
