MasterClass Paul Gilbert_29.04.19

L’ETM a eu l’honneur de recevoir Paul Gilbert, le fameux guitariste californien de Racer X et Mr. Big. Il a été élu numéro 4 sur la liste du magazine GuitarOne des «10 meilleurs shredders de guitare de tous les temps » et occupe une place dans la liste des 50 guitaristes les plus rapides de tous les temps de Guitar World. Lors de cette soirée exceptionnelle, Paul Gilbert était accompagné par Ivan Rougny (basse) et Maxence Sibille (batterie), ainsi que Christophe Godin (guitare) et Ben G (guitare).

One of the greatest guitarist the earth has ever seen. Shredding with maintaining so good Melodies. Absolute legend

[@lucianmunteanu8751]

Agree

[@gnatiu]

Paul Gilbert is an unbelievably talented, virtuoso Guitarist. And his wit is very human, very friendly, down to earth. The absolute opposite of an asshole.

[@levisalvini4110]

You just used the perfect words sir!!!

[@hanskung3278]

Yes!

[@adamcolbertmusic]

I also love the fact that, although he isn't "a singer", he still doesn't hesitate to sing. Not even 5 minutes in, 3:48 he unabashedly jumps right into singing Janis Joplin acapella! It sounds just like how you or I or anyone would sing it in the shower, yet he sings it into a microphone with an audience and is totally cool with it. He's so comfortable with an audience and he's so comfortable with accepting musical limitations, imperfections, and mistakes, and he lets none of them stop him from just DOING it. He's so "relatable", really.

[@christiankurtboutot5658]

What Paul shows in this fantastic vidéo is that before trying playing licks of whoever guitarist you want , you have to "sing" with your guitar, she must become "your voice"....then things get easier at this moment, the moment you realize you re singing with your instrument. Hé shows also the high importance of timing...play on the beat, before, after etc...GROOOVE !!!!!! PAUL IS BOUDDHA !!!!!! LOOOOL He s teaching us the path to follow by "talking" through his guitar.... I REALLY RESPECT THIS ATTITUDE .

[@neillalchin1595]

Very true my friend, he is known for his expressing the importance of the element of "feel" in anyone's playing. Mr Gilmour would agree with this completely. Paul is so very important to the craft, I hope that we don't wait until he is no longer here to fully acknowledge that, his attitude is unquestionable, I don't think there is a negative bone in his body and his levels of passion are quite extraordinary, this can only be of benefit for our future guitar playing generations to come. I thank you for them in advance Mr Gilbert, I salute you. NA1974🇬🇧.

[@edwardmartin6052]

[@CaliRaftDude]

no kidding... the 80 thumb's down are probably from Trevor Rabin: "damn you and your ridiculously long fingers and perfect phrasing!' I am of the opinion that Paul doesn't really figure anything out anymore. He just hears something, picks up the guitar and it manifests..

[@nightdiver_0037]

He’s an alien basically

[@PeteUnsigned]

@@nightdiver_0037 yeah, he rivals "E.T." for the title of "friendliest alien"!

[@mightyluv]

The first time I really noticed him was on a guitar magazine CD playing his version of “El Becko” (it’s on YT: find it and listen); I think he was the only one on that whole album playing an amp at full volume and utilizing all the inherent dynamics that come with it. All the other tracks sounded like they were recorded in bedrooms at conversation volume.

[@livingbeing1113]

@@mightyluv Yep, Paul was know to play at full volume with a very unforgivable tone, that's one of the reasons that separated him from the rest. Shredding fast is one thing, doing it clean at full volume with his tone is a totally different ballgame. Jake E Lee is another that always played raw at full volume and controlled it effortlessly. That cover of El Becko by Paul was monstrous, it was during the ADA MP1 preamp days, late 80s, my favorite tone of Paul ever, so sharp and thundering, perfect for his pristine shredding.

[@russk1971]

Paul is a great teacher not just because he has lots of knowledge about music and techniques. He knows how to explain his knowledge to regular people who are not at his level of skill. He is very personable and has a quirky sense of humor.

[@thebomontellano4996]

5:50 absolute melodic genius.

[@orlevene9964]

It's like discovering that fire bending comes from the breathing instead of the muscles. Paul's playing comes from positive feelings instead of pain ~

[@KarstenJohansson]

Super cool version of Over The Hills and Far Away.

[@mattc.883]

As a child of the 80’s I grew up worshiping EVH, EJ, Yngwie, Vai and Satch but overlooked Paul. I actually started in his later career and have worked backwards to Street Lethal. He’s evolved as artists often do into the most incredible, listenable players of all time. Never a bad note and each album is a portrait of his life. A virtuoso, gentleman and and humble man. Forever one of my favorites!

[@laryon]

Paul is amazing as hell. He definitely has the guitar face down to perfection when he's jamming. Great video.

After 5 minutes I liked, it after 10 minutes I think he might be the best guitarist I've ever heard. He can jerk with the best of them but he doesn't over do it. Beautiful melodies and his feel and timing is second to none.

[@Purtroppo]

Very tasteful playing, and very tasteful choice of songs by Paul. Also, out of all these masterclass videos I've managed to find on KZbin these two musicians supporting Paul here are by far the most solid players. The bassist is even phenomenal, what a delivery on the Over the Hills.

My buddy Paul Gilbert is the best all around guitarist, shredder, singer, entainner now teacher in the business today! Jim rousanough would steak Shawn Lane's stuff and send to Paul back in the day... But Omg No One could touch Shawn Lane photographic memory his intelligent level was off the chart, but his music was way over everyone's head most people didn't like it. But Paul Gilbert on the other hand is Spot On! Thanks Paul bro! Keep rocking.. your brother Rod Crider PS...Yngwie Malmsteen and many others will be pissed I said that Paul is the best.. lol

[@iganpparamarta8813]

Hi do you think Shawn Lane and Holdsworth share the same fate? I mean for us guitarists they're like god but still both of them didn't reach same popularity as other solo artists. Not saying that popularity is the only quality a guitarist should have. Vai&Satriani live comfortably now and despite never know them in person I'm sure they're financially stable from playing guitar. I hope you get what I mean. English is not my first language. And I also just found out that Gary Moore also almost unknown outside guitar world.

[@gaz0463]

As far as music expression Paul is the master. To get the sounds that he hears in his head out through his fingers and into his guitar you can see it’s not just a thought process and many many hours of practice but it’s a physical process too. The guy is awesome and his enthusiasm is intoxicating and inspirational. Just awesome.

[@luisvillarreal5262]
