Guitar Teacher REACTS: LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT "Paradigm Shift" | LIVE 4K

[@topfeedcoco]

I saw "LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT" and immediately clicked on. I haven't heard this in like 20 years, loved this album.

[@bakerfrank98531]

What's your opinion on LTE3?

[@sushicatsan]

That feeling when you realize it actually has legitimately been 20 years since I bumped this in my car in highschool. We're old!!! 😭

[@TheMoose5]

@@sushicatsanyou ain’t lyin!

[@kinexkid]

Honestly, this whole concert deserves a reaction. Every song is dynamite and the energy is astounding!

[@pmacfto]

Thanks for your passion for music from a fellow guitarist! 🎸 People think JP is all fast playing and he's a beast in that realm but he has some of the most passionate and emotive guitar solos I have heard in many years. LTE is just amazing - first album was unbelievable but the 2nd one is crazy too - it could only be amazing with that lineup. You should also check out the Evening with JP and JR live album which is great.

[@Guitargate]

Thank YOU!

[@benjammin1943]

Dude if you liked this one, they made a second album "Liquid Tension Experiment 2" You gotta check out the track "Acid Rain" It blew my mind

[@behamiltonsrful]

They have an LTE 3 that came out in the last year I believe, and they do a version of Rhapsody in Blue which kicks butt

[@LogicalQ]

Universal mind also

[@crotonik]

Can't believe I am first for this one. LTE and Palmisano is a match made in heaven.

[@Guitargate]

HA! BOOOMMMM

[@spiderbass65]

I’m always so impressed with people like you who can pic out the notes before playing! Seeing Tony Levin next month with Beat. My favorite bassist.

[@TheMaxportnoy]

JP and MP are the greatest ! I love what they do and i m a big fan of LTE and DT obviously!

[@unamericano]

This is seriously one of my top solos of all time. Just an absolutely powerhouse of melodic ideas perfectly executed.

[@dancrunk1063]

Oh shit this video is gonna do some numbers ❤😂

[@mbenson182]

IIRC, LTE was formed before Jordan joined DT. LTE only became "DT with Tony Levin" later! This song rocks, glad you loved it, definitely recommend checking out the live version of "When the Water Breaks" which also rips.

[@tylersherkin9487]

Yeah this was 98, and Rudess' first album was 99's Scenes from a Memory. They were like "JORDAN COME PLAY WITH US WE'RE AWESOME!" and it worked.

[@kgbusa3415]

Sir, LTE live in LA "When the water breaks" needs to be heard/seen to believe. Should review

[@Smart75]

Followed by 'When the keyboard breaks' only to be propelled in a black hole of musical awesomeness

[@gaztroboy]

im still mind blown by that song, like how those guys memorize a crazy 26 minutes instrumental song

[@yourilevesque2]

I've been watching your videos for a long time and I love what you do! Excellent reaction video as always!

[@drbastianac8252]

tony levin’s solo is pure magic

[@DanielVerberne]

Michael, you're a wicked good ear player, I'm really envious and impressed. Never apologise for any mistakes, you're light years ahead of me.

[@christianmccoy-maker]

Peak talent musicians that absolutely run the gambit of musical possibilities.

[@petergrohmuller1372]

I don't understand what this has to do with music at all. Is it a competition to play as many notes as possible in the shortest time possible? The guys' technical skills are of course undisputed. But with this skill, you can surely do more useful things than simulate a machine gun, right?

[@canman87]

@@petergrohmuller1372 Why not? If that's what a person wants to express, then what's the problem with that? If it isn't for you, just say that instead. Besides, if you were actually familiar with the musical library of all these guys, you know that each one of them are capable of doing everything from the most mellow and heartfelt playing all the way up to shredding your balls off. You don't have to like all of it, but to reduce it all to "simulating a machine gun" is completely disingenuous.

[@petergrohmuller1372]

@@canman87 Just listen to me carefully: I'm playing guitar since 50 years and so I know very well that these guys are playing in the Champions League with their skills. I saw Tony Levi live with Allan Holdsworth and it was fantastic. "You don't have to like everything..." Right! As long as people are allowed to freely express their opinions on KZbin, including using sarcasm, I won't let anyone stop me from doing so, not even you... and if you don't get that, that's your problem.

[@rollingfinn2044]

@@petergrohmuller1372 If you actually had 50 years experience playing guitar then you would recognize what JP is doing at not make asinine remarks like simulate a machine gun. Just say "they play too fast for me and I don't have the skill to even come close so I'll instead disparage them.

[@petergrohmuller1372]

@@rollingfinn2044 Now listen carefully, Beeker: If you are unable to understand a comment, let alone accept it, and instead cry like an offended child, you should contact your therapist.

[@topfeedcoco]

The riff kinda has a Yes Heart of Sunrise vibe to it.

[@codyburgess7034]

John Petrucci and Ty Tabor are the base for how I play guitar. Discover King’s X and LTE changed my life forever and I’m soooo thankful!

[@Hintz6]

Ty’s solos are the definition of “serve the song”. He never over plays, just writes the tastiest solos the fit songs so perfectly. Great mention!

[@mrporter2u]

@@Hintz6 One of my favorite solos is from "Pretend" off the Dogman album. Such groove, phrasing, and melody.

[@tylersherkin9487]

This was an awesome video, man. Love watching you try to puzzle out Petrucci's delightful insanity. Great stuff! (Oh yeah, and your ear is insane, that was amazing)

[@supasoulproductions]

Yeah, you get some stuff wrong now and then. But what other teachers out there are trying to give live takeaways from Snarky Puppy and Liquid Tension Experiment? You rock, MP!!

[@Brandon-zn8rf]

BRO!!! Same concert but the song is Acid Rain! Petrucci goes FULL WORLD DOMINATION MODE! Please react to that one!!🙏🐐

[@MnyFrNthng]

17:50 you described MP the most succinct way. That's what seperates him from Mangini and all the drummers. He is so musical.

[@greybushgames1]

Kindred spirits or Biaxident would be great ones for you to check out

[@123lowp]

Yeah, they are both good

[@JAFOpty]

LTE 1 was the first CD I bought online.. from CD Universe, back in '97 😂❤

[@moose6666]

This is the ultimate prog metal instrumental piece. Whenever someone asks me what is an example of progressive metal music, this is THE piece I give them. Also, John's solo in the slow section is one of his tastiest ever. It's right up there with the solo from The Spirit Carries On.

[@zeppleymusic6793]

Man their entire first album is a masterpiece.

[@styx85]

My favorite band in the whole wide world! 😁 Soooo good.

[@kodydeboat4621]

Really need some Arch Echo reactions on this channel amazing band. I'd recommend a song but they're all great

[@Mark_B585]

I swear everyone here is amazing love it

[@modelcitizen1977]

When I was a youngin, this was the pinnacle. There were not any more technically proficient players in any other band.

[@ericpayne9091]

I loved hearing you talk about his technique and how effortless it looks. I feel the same way about Steve Vai's playing, it's not just the shreddy stuff he can pull off, but just how dang easy he makes it always look. He's got a great video on his channel playing Gravity Storm live with a camera mounted to the headstock so you can see super up close what his fretting fingers are doing. The pre-bend and release moves he's doing all over that song are incredible. The vid's audio is terrible, but still definitely worth checking out

[@jasonpoland5507]

About damned time. LTE IS AMAZING

[@faronsquare]

LTE is insane, I knew this would be a good episode

[@zacharyp1089]

You gotta check out and react to Luca Stricagnoli. He does some of the craziest guitar instrumental covers.

[@psionic6126]

The best musicians on earth!

[@mitchweiner]

I heard them do this song years ago! They’re incredible! The opening riff sounds like a sped-up Hot For Teacher to me!

[@seantierson2633]

okay, but now you HAVE to do a video on their rendition of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue from this same concert. It's just EPIC

[@deadewok02]

oh man. as a long time DT fan i geeked out when i saw you did a LT song. that said...i just saw a video that hardy and stephen wilson jr. did that i think you'd dig called "father's son"...it's legitimately amazing.

[@JeffCappelletti-e6l]

John's wah pedal usage was impeccable. Jordan's lead sound makes him sound like another guitar player. All the Liquid Tension Experiment albums are worth getting.

[@carlosnascimento9269]

"I love Mike Portnoy." You and me both, brother.

[@Heatmizer42]

Paradigm shift and Universal Mind were the songs that I listened to the most from LTE!

[@jima6545]

Thank you for this

[@krob5375]

I love supergroup collab bands. My current fav is Flying Colours which also features Portnoy, as well as my fav guitarist, Steve Morse. Well worth a look to anybody not familiar.

[@plotevil5884]

Anyone: These are the hardest songs on the planet to play. Portnoy: Hold my bee...hey. these are all my songs. The only thing better than listening to Portnoy play is watching him play.

[@jima6545]

This show has to be one of the most impressive luve shows ever! And without a singer???

[@hollowthere3850]

Wait, I know that guy!....Wait,,, I know that guy too!?! How did i not know about this?!!! Thanks for the showcase!

[@danieljabiri947]

Thank you for these videos. My dad said guitar players in his days didn't depend on tabs..

[@MarcelVincent]

im glat you got the flat 7 instead of the 9 for the intro riff ....this version seems way faster then i remember .. i used to know this song maybe 15 years ago

[@mysticcynic9718]

Well done. This was like fishing for a whale with yarn and a toothpick. LTE is a house full of killers. On a another note, I'd like to hear your take on Blues Saraceno. Not sure if you've covered him or not, but thank you for all that you do. 👽

[@codyburgess7034]

I got the same Uncle Larry Shirt!

[@thomassiemens1666]

Liquid Tension Experiment is kind of Dream Theater on speed. 😆

[@brandonparker7532]

I like when the water breaks better or acid rain

[@NickJardine]

Jeez. I remember one of my first guitar teachers, who is obsessed with John Petrucci, thought it would be a good idea to try and teach me some of this song in my second or third year of lessons. Lol

[@Guitargate]

Hahaha!! Noooooo

"You can't really get there" - nuff said. :)

LTE3 was key to bring back Portnoy.

Playing on Petrucci's solo album probably helped as well.

[@martijnvanspaendonck7989]

Wow, this channel keeps blowing my mind over and over again. Guy still can't play and still can't hear what's being playend AND can't explain it. 620K subscribers, so the laugh is on him of course! 'I'm hearing flat 5 over and over again!' *proceeds to play anything other than b5* :')

[@martijnvanspaendonck7989]

'That flat 6!!' (No flat 6 in the entire part.. :))

[@joe78man]

I can see theory trumping ear. You got things wrong because you are trying to figure out the music instead of listening to it

[@IRuinEvrything]

neck pickup no good for harmonics on a guitar. use the bridge. harmonic series is oct, 5th, oct, 3rd, flat 7 etc

[@kahwigulum]

come on he riffs stone cold crazy by queen and nothing? you didnt notice? we noticed.

More LTE and Dream Theatre
