Joe Satriani - Crushing Day - Professor Satchafunkilus Bonus

[@greekfreak1980]

When even Satch has to take a seat, in order to play a song, you know shit just got real.

[@jackjackattack9137]

Agree !!!!!!!!!!

[@wncguitaracademy]

That is why John Petrucci has foot props on stage. Once you start all that sweeping and blazing fast playing you have to lock yourself in a classical guitar position where there is no movement in order to pull it off. That what Joe is doing here with playing seated.

[@luvpants2012]

Lol

[@Discrimination_is_not_a_right]

So that's why classical guitarists play sitting down.

[@tictuck]

Absolutely

Mark Gradoia it’s actually the new Ibanez 1/2 scale chair. It’s just like a full size chair in every way, the quality - but, 1/2 the scale. This allows you to sit much faster and easier than you would in a full scale chair. You can also try alternate chair tunings. I think Paul Gilbert already promoted this?

[@Motovader72]

I've heard this song a hundred times and still gives me goosebumps.

[@Gravy1255]

Pete Sykes idk dude devin townsend is really good at all that too.

[@PeteSykes.1]

Very True indeed...but as a musician that made the world realize that a living could be made doing instrumental rock and as a teacher (Steve Vai, Larry LaLonde, Rick Hunolt, Kirk Hammett, Andy Timmons, Charlie Hunter, Kevin Cadogan, and Alex Skolnick) there is no other Teacher/Performer of this generation that caused such a trickle effect as Satriani did with "Surfing"...think about the connections...7 string guitars included...

[@willgibsonguitar]

i love the part where he slowly stands up after the solo, its like he just emerged from an intense battle victoriously.

[@synthogd808]

What make him the the best is his stuff sounds like real songs with a real chorus, verse, pre chorus, bridge and solo. Most guitar instrumentalists just try to show off

[@TheZenytram]

yeah, joe sings with the guitar and is a great faster player as well, not just a shredder machine like many others, i love heavy metal and all its variant, but is painfull to find good band that dont sound like shit.

[@stevenbryan663]

I agree. I can always recognize a Joe Satriani song, because it has structure - it makes sense musically. And his songs can get complex, but they always have that core that makes them very satisfying. Big fan. I just love his Saturated concert. I'm sure I've listened to it hundreds of times and it never gets old.

[@bernknezevic7736]

Nobody knows who's the best guitarist

[@levis569]

@@stevenbryan663 I recognize Satch songs but not because of song structure:D

[@krisreddish3066]

For some. But music does not have to have parts like a shorus, a verse, pre chorus, bridge and solo. I always liked him for his tone. That liquid metallic 80-90s sound that is pure Satch. Other folks have structure too, they are not Satch. Only as a hobby guitarists I never had a favorite. I do not have to compete virtuosos against each other, they all make me feel equally useless at guitar. Be it folks like Macalpine, Guilbert, Satriani, Vai. Yngwie, Muhammed Suiçmez, Ron Jarzombek, the 20 other ones I do not have time to list, or 10s of thousands I have yet to hear. All equally good at making me sound like trash.

[@snogglemonkey]

One thing some people forget about Joe - is just how brilliant a melody writer/song writer and composer he is. To me his inventiveness is unending and very brilliant. Oh, and he's a hell of a guitarist too :)

[@stevenjones6780]

Exactly. Why do his melodies and arrangements stick in your head so well?....

Don't worry Joe whether you sit whether you stand you are the master of the universe.

Standing up or sitting down... Joe kicks major ass. Plus, humble enough to reveal the difficulties and present them to the public.

[@Masterlessmusic]

Definitely one of my all time favourites from Joe. One of many of course.

[@krono069]

You're one of my all-time favorites Satch. I met you in Las Vegas, I think 98? I want to say it was at the Hard Rock when I first saw you live. I was 16 or 17. Me and my buddy would not give up trying to sneak in through the backdoor to meet you after the show. Security kept throwing us out. We were planning our next attempt and you just walked right out and said something like, "You guys wanted to see me?" Then you hung out with us there in the back alley for at least 15 minutes, giving us tips on various techniques, signing all the stuff we wanted you to sign. Such a long time ago, I'm pushing 40 now but because of you Satch, I actually became quite the accomplished guitar player, winning the talent show my senior in high-school and eventually teaching guitar myself for almost four years in the mid 2000s. I'm a huge fan. Thanks for all the great music all these years.

[@stevenjones6780]

What a great story. What a human being. I'm a bit older than you and got bit by the Satch bug back in the 80's, but his music is timeless for so many reasons...

[@zedmelon]

That's fscking awesome. Thanks for sharing.

[@Jmilillo]

"You guys wanted to see me?" That's incredible! Exactly how I would imagine Satch treats his fans. So nice and casual, willing to talk to anyone.

[@georgetrapp6666]

A retail supervisor of mine regales us regularly about his days, years ago working in a major Sam Goody store, and getting in-store-appearances or somehow getting backstage passes to see bands, including meet-and-greets. He got to see the Satriani show, and hang backstage. He says Joe was so regular, and didn't seem egotistical whatsoever. Conversation was about fun stuff. Wasn't like he was stuck with fans, it even went on so long, my supervisor felt like he himself was overstaying his welcome, as it was getting pretty late. He could have kept talking to Joe all night, and it seemed like Joe would have let him!

[@guitarsehole]

Joe is the absolute BOSS of guitar!! I mean, it's great that people can do covers to show off how good they can play, but they didn't write this shit. Hail Satriani!!!

[@FlatoupiX]

Exactly !!!! Nobody can understand that ! "Huh it's playable with a hard work, i can do that !" Of course you see somemone doing it. Nobody can imagine that was possible before he does it.

[@420captain]

Alfavet Rzeszów rofl. You just compared a melodic masterpiece to a random composition of noise. Something like "red" comes out of Satches more messed up jamming session...no heck. He cant play that unmelodic cause his melodic prowess is godlike. Music tastes can differ alot..but those songs got NOTHING in common. Absolutely nothing.

Having great technical ability or having great songwriting skills are two completely different things. There are planty, and I really mean PLENTY, of guitarists that crush Satriani when it comes to technique. Songwriting is a different matter of course.

When I first heard this album and bought the tab book, I was so inspired to try to learn the entire album from beginning to end. I got to this tune, and it honestly made me give up playing this album for about 25 years. I'm talking about 1990, 91 way before you could go on KZbin and see how guys are executing licks or slow stuff down, etc. Joe to me has always been the best songwriter out of all the guitar instrumentalists (besides E.J.) but not really the best technical player. This tune changed that. I'm relieved to hear he couldn't play this tune live either back then 😂

[@DanielVerberne]

[@stevenjones6780]

Exactly. Why do his melodies and arrangements stick in your head so well?...

[@biohazard8295]

@@stevenjones6780 imo he decides to compose and play from some ideas he has in his head, maybe some random chord strumming helps him but the majority of the idea is generated on an emotional level and he tries to play what he feels is gonna work out. In his most recent interview he said that music is not about rules is just a matter of "cause and effect". A large majority of rock/metal composers write songs using the guitar only and kinda get stuck to the same scale patterns expecially when soloing. Steve Vai talked about this about composing "for the love of god". It started from an idea that he thought and he said he had to work a bit to translate it to the guitar fretboard because it wasnt something he would have improvised or composed using previous licks. I don't know how to explain it better but that is just my feeling.

[@stevenjones6780]

@@biohazard8295 Well said. And yes, I saw that 2 min snippet where he mentions 'cause & effect'. Apparently Jimmy Page once quoted, upon critique of his technical ability, "I deal in emotions". Zeppelin live was certainly less manicured and more experimental than studio. I've benefited as much or more from piano and Jazz theory than just dwelling on "guitar planet". That said, You've gotta love the way the mind, body, and spirit fall on the instrument and what great ideas come directly from that. Eddie Van Halen once said in an interview "Everything I do is an accident, get used to it"...LOL

He and Vai as well gave us access to the green room and hung out before the show truly a couple of regular guys who just happen to be very good I'll even say the best at what they do.

I don't remember where I read this, I guess it was at Satriani's website a long time ago... Matt is a talented fucker, I was listening to an album called "Jughead" he recorded with his brother on drums and Ty Tabor from King's X, crazy stuff, pop sound with heavy hooks

You're an idiot, Marco Minnemann is incredible

[@keithrushmore9809]

What happened to Jeff?

[@rapid13]

Can't count the number of times I've seen Joe, only ever with Stu and Jeff. Every time he toured with Mover I missed it. I also saw him with Eric Caudieux on the Engines tour. Never even heard of him touring with Matt. Only real band? Hardly.

@@FeelingShred What's the name they recorded the album as? I'd like to find it!

[@buckbenelli8]

The man speaks another language, not only do I understand, but absolutely love it.

[@adamrspears1981]

Wouldn't it be hilarious if Jeff stood up while satch sat down?

[@liveattheinternational]

How fkn brilliantbis that. It's superb musicianship.

Master guitar. joe satriani

[@willgibsonguitar]

Joe never fails to blow me away.

[@dan_gabriel]

Prhaps the most difficult solo ever ?

[@petecanthropus9947]

+dan gabriel That's impossible to tell, but for sure the passage between 4:13 and 4:24 seems to be diabolically hard to play.

[@DarkSim77]

+Pete Canthropus To me that parts not the hardest..the sweeps are the hardest part IMO..

[@aiarthena5744]

I agree with you.. That's how "Lord Voldemort" shows us how to play guitar like nobody can play it :)

[@aleaallee]

sometimes the easiest parts of satch songs are the tapping solos xD

[@Chris741113]

He actually is not playing it cleanly. With a cleaner tone, without all the gain, chorus, flange and general "hiss" those sweeps would come out hardly audiable. Would be pfffttt pttff

[@davids-pb3pu]

Amazing... simply amazing ... nice to see yr skills. u r right need to be as one, perfect..wow

[@AudioJackTeknoCat]

Guitar god.

[@light487]

These guys should always be the Joe Satriani band. Each of them lends so much to the overall sound that it becomes perfection

[@cheezyridr]

i could totally play like this too - if i was super talented and spent forever being dedicated to guitar. just sayin

[@marshallbenson6062]

Ok....
