G3 VAI/JOHNSON/SATRIANI/STRAUSS “Foxy Lady” LIVE The Orpheum Theater Los Angeles, Ca. Feb. 9, 2024

[@Abe_D-2024]

Joe Satriani, your guitar artistry and kindness are unparalleled. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.

[@beachcomber4141]

I love the best guitar players are playing Hendrix. Just so cool

[@ralphman2112]

Eric's tone brought Jimi Hendrix back to life. Ain't the first time.

[@ymelfilm]

ok, but better to go with Randy Hansen..

[@fukhue8226]

It's over the top good. Bonamassa has a good handle on the tone and I have seen a couple of advanced youtube guitarists with great Hendrix tones as well.

[@ymelfilm]

@@fukhue8226 Randy Hansen?

A well-known Hendrix cover artist, possibly the best, and great player in his own right. ​@ymelfilm

[@orianoromagnoni9312]

Considero Steve Vai un Dio. Esplorazione delle possibilità dello strumento. Composizioni meravigliose, così come la loro riproduzione dal vivo. Ma quando si tratta di improvvisare, Joe Satriani è ad un altro livello. Brividi ogni volta.

[@t3hgir]

5:44 Kenny's 32nd note fill anticipating Jason about to shred the same subdivisions like in his first solo, nice to see actual chemistry.

[@petermcgrath2638]

I think Jimi would approve❤

He probably be surprised that he's still being remembered

[@Mykoe9]

Oh, and Brian Beller on bass, outstanding!

[@OneSupreme08]

All are just awesome BUT Eric solo short but so tastefully good !

[@stratcat4450]

Eric is the only one to give the musical nod to Jimi instead of pushing his signature sound an style into the cover.

Eric Johnson The First Solo Fantastic.. The Rest?????

[@hermankarels]

Is not historie 😅

[@BobGuido]

Eric completely stands alone here in soloing to the music. Vai goes into his own dimension, as he often does. The singer is the best musician in the band here. It sounds a little like Glenn Hughes and would be a great vocalist for Lynch Mob with George.

[@kenchiarito2112]

Great comment! Thanks!

[@steevieel]

Totally Awesome .. That's Kenny Arnoff Right ??

[@gtralive-2024]

👍🏼

[@Locknar77]

Someday I want to know what the real story is with Nita. She wasn't even the best guitarist in the Maidens, and since then there's been numerous female shredders who are also photogenic emerging on the scene, but somehow Nita is the only one that gets promoted to that next level.

[@gypsyfromthesatelliteoflov5425]

Have you heard of roy marchbank? If skill was the only consideration, he should be like the most well known guitar player out there Theres defo more to it... i think nita has the right combo of looks, attitude, skill, and work ethic that makes her super valuable to musicians... theres always going to be some luck and networking (her agent might be one helluva sales person) thats gonna go into it too... but i think she deserves the lime light So does roy marchbank and abigail zachko and countless others but there ya go

[@shable1436]

The G3 has been a boys club since the beginning, so if you're friends with one of the players or insiders there, then you're in. It's not some conspiracy

[@FrankBittom1]

Perché è la migliore e se fossi più obiettivo e avessi ascoltato tutte le sue composizioni, lo capiresti

Have to hand it to Kenny to keep it all together, noticed where he is not sure he counts it back in to keep everyone on track !

[@richiemao6991]

In my opinion Eric Johnson is just solitary big cat that played his own role by not copying anyone

[@gypsyfromthesatelliteoflov5425]

They all copied something from someone i think... eric was hugely influenced by players like chet atkins which you see in his finger picking... All of them have some guitar giants dna in them... heck almost everyone developed their vibrato from claptons and bb... and thats cool! Copying from greats and turning it into your own thing is what its all about

[@dogman5680]

He copied the first half of Jimi’s solo note for note…out of respect of course.

[@dcamnc1]

I have to admit, I liked Nita’s solos best

[@lorenaoregon]

Rai Thistlethwayte is on keyboard & vocals here. The person taking video here seems to be deliberately keeping him out of frame but the audience could see him on the front right side of the stage (assuming the setup was the same as Seattle). Totally jealous Seattle didn’t get to see Nina Strauss, though.

I am a Japanese guitar lover. Ah, Thank you for using a lot of MIJ products. Such as Ibanez of guitar, Boss pedal, like these.I think, Nita is almost same tone original Jimi's tone. Very close.But, other than that,they are great players, and Jimi's song is still great even today.I say Thanks from Saitama !

[@shable1436]

I believe the guests are playing direct using a multi effects, she uses boss gt1000, Jimi just used Marshalls w fuzz faces

[@dboulos7]

Great performances, ...but would've been nice to dispel the notion that the vocals were pre-recorded - why no footage of the singer/keyboardist (I had to read the channel notes)

[@kenchiarito2112]

The iPhone can only do so much and the vocals were not prerecorded at all. The vocalist was so far extreme stage left(Joe even joked about it a few times), that it would’ve made the all guitarists too small for the shot and barely able to see. Zooming out to view the whole stage was not doable to ME and I wanted to focus on the group of guitarists that ALL came from stage right. It was my choice I had to make on the spot. I don’t edit not have software to do so nor do I plan too. This video is for fans and I’m not a professional nor claim to be one. Sorry you’re so unhappy.

[@dboulos7]

@@kenchiarito2112 No, I'm not unhappy at all. You did a great job at keeping focus on the center of attention - each guitarist was visible the whole time. Everything that you explained had crossed my mind, so I'm not surprised that a panoramic view was a logistical impossibility. Apologies for coming off sounding bitter - I was actually attempting to be slightly humorous. Thank you for shooting an awesome performance and sharing it with others.

Only if u think theyre there to one up each other... though that is a possibility...

Its like when your buddies get together and talk about how great this hero was and you all say stories about him... i think thats what i hear, them honoring jimi in their own ways, telling us their stories of him
