Greg Koch - Machine Gun (Jimi Hendrix Cover) - Gristletime!

[@bluwng]

The more I watch I realize Greg is better than I thought and I always thought he was great.

[@user-Natarito]

And he’s getting better! Which is just insane dude. I’ve exhaustively watched everything of Greg’s that I could find (I’m not crazy I was stuck in bed after a few surgeries on a bad broken leg) and while always being very talented he clearly evolved his gristle in the last decade to the beast he is now.

[@thejamnasium6447]

he's so good I dunno if I love him or hate him haha. God he's good.

[@CraftyTangent]

Easily the best cover of this tune I've ever heard. ❤

[@thesecretspaceship]

The time has come. Greg Koch is finally getting everyone's attention. A true master making the world a better place through music and humor. An amazing musical star. Thanks Greg 🖖

[@jakelebowski7901]

Incredible! You are my new favorite guitarist. I never heard anyone even attempt Jimi's Machine Gun before.

[@CorbCorbin]

I’ve been covering it since I was 16, in the mid 90’s. The riffs for each part aren’t very difficult. It’s getting the vibe right(pun intended), and building it up, before going more wild and trippy with it, for the sounds of a war zone. I learned Machine Gun, Who Knows and Message of Love off the Band of Gypsys album, snd it blew the minds of much better players than I was. I got pretty good at improvising, and most players at my level, or even a bit beyond, just couldn’t do it as easily, or at all. Machine Gun is excellent to improvise to. Drums and bass follow the riff, or the guitarist can follow their changes.

This is great!

[@AudioAtmos]

This put the same smile on my face as the first time hearing Hendrix play it. Can’t beat that…thanks guys

[@bokononx4606]

I don't think I've ever heard this song seriously covered and rarely have I ever heard Hendrix covered this well. And the greatest part of it is that it's *not* - or maybe "not just" - a tribute... they're interpreting it ffs. Outstanding!

[@terrapin323]

Dude wait till you find Greg's 2 live covers of this song

[@bokononx4606]

@terrapin323 I did hear the all-Hendrix set they did last fall... fantastic.

[@josephcorcoran8714]

Greg is the only guy I’ve ever heard cover this song. If I did hear someone else cover it it wasn’t worth remembering I guess. That Hendrix set was insane!

@@bokononx4606 I'm talking this other version brother kzbin.info/www/bejne/m16agIWoq5Jrbrcsi=prrc928W3pR_BaLT I've probably listened to this over 100 times

Holy schnoozle. Definitely channelling in this one. Just bloody marvelous!

Schnoozle Love it, new word to drive everybody mad with Thanks

[@alq2868]

Greg, Gents, Jimi I’m sure would love hearing you play this iconic masterpiece, he’d have that big ole toothy grin and sparkle in his eyes, and simply say , ‘yeah, man,what I’m talking bout’

[@terrapin323]

Been waiting for this moment for a while, i must be the world number one listener of your machine gun covers 😅

[@luizdejesus6240]

Grooovy... a little purple in the orange room...

Didnt think it was possible to play a hendrix sitting down...well done ...youall did it..

[@drumsybatabamboom8022]

You guys are incredible! Thank you.

[@mattfulcher-kh9so]

I worked on the litigation support of the estate of Jimi Hendrix. i got to hold the hand written tablature of this song. so cool.

[@jeffdawson2786]

My favorite Band of Gypsies song. Greg & Co. conjure up my memories of hearing it for the first time. Spectacular.

[@alexanderroy5713]

Can’t wait to see you in Denver!

This song HAS to be on the next tour, Greg!!! Outstanding!

I'm just trying to figure out how the heck they found a dude taller than Greg that plays an instrument.

[@scottydog62]

Greg and his wife made him😅

[@lptomtom]

Is the bass player playing some sort of miniature Precision?

[@MattyK-USA]

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!? 🔥😛🔥

[@DangerAmbrose]

Greg always looks like he is playing a mini strat.

[@user-uv1rr5xk8i]

On many accounts, people whom.have seen him say he's taller then a redwood

Fantastic, turn the bass up a bit in the mix for me please 👆

You don't 'cover' Machine Gun, you can only imitate it.

Greg you bring out all the bestialities of Jimi of a unique beauty your son on the drums is very explosive you are very good

[@MrNatural-fq1tq]

[@jhall6926]

More bass volume, !...

[@mds1171]

Bass level is fine if you use external speakers. doesnt come through so much on computer or phone speakers.

[@kimklinke3826]

I do love Greg Koch’s excesses on guitar 🎸♥️. But heard through my iPad Pro and Beyer 880 Pro studio headphone, which emphasizes bass - the bass volume is indeed way too low and it is also - as a matter of fact - unfortunately a general experience of mine with Gristle from the Orange Room 😳. Turn up the bass 👍😊.

[@mds1171]

@kimklinke3826 Greg talked about this topic in one of his live-streams and said if you have a bass issue, it's on your end.

[@elementsofphysicalreality]

Something about this feels wrong. Like you’re playing in the wrong key or something. Using the wrong scales. You also didn’t really play any of the right licks. Are we listening to the same Band of Gypsys album?

[@robertlivingstone3364]

That was pretty lame by Greg's usual high standard of playing, sorry.

[@ostryabear2914]

Wow, Best cover ever, super trio Greg. Tight

[@thebigleone1066]

Really good. The Sit Down Band. I see all these old boomers playing on chairs now. Of course you are all mansplaining.

[@davidgerlach1132]

I find this as convincing as the guitarists attempting to "copy" EVH. It just ain't working. Jimi was liquid, Eddie was swing.
