[@Giggiyygoo]

Quick story about this song. I heard it on the radio back in 04 or so, and loved it, but didn't know the name of it. With no lyrics, I couldn't Google anything to help, and there were no apps or smartphones to help back then. I spent years trying to figure out what it was, randomly hearing it on the radio every so often. Finally found it after like 4 years or so on a "best guitar solo" list. Nearly cried when I heard it. Been a satch fan ever since.

[@Taylor___]

This is exactly what I was just talking about to a friend of mine tonight. I spent 10 hours downloading this performance about 13 years ago and now it's just one click away. It's utterly nuts how times have changed.

[@soldat2501]

04, lol. Now imagine 10 years earlier when it was new, no internet to help figure out what you just heard. I sat there all day listening to the radio hoping, praying to hear it again..

[@workingprogress2951]

Gididdy giggidy

[@craigfreeman9385]

Nice story!! He is unique !!! Stevie Vie and all Joe's compadries will say the same !! Great player and he makes awesome guitars!!!!

[@craigfreeman9385]

My favorite album is "Flying on a blue dream, because it's the only one that you will hear Satchmo sing , and he can!!!!

[@lonnieford5073]

Summer song ? This is good all year long

[@boredjet]

The bass player is phenomenal!👏👏👏

[@claumanowar8466]

Absolutely, Dave La Rue, I"ve seen him with Steve Morse on the G3 event and it's awesone

[@EbolaSandwich]

yes! saw him w/ Dixie Dregs as well

[@iosibcn]

He is John Petrucci's solo album bass player too!!

[@sarahtabatoni2833]

He makes a difference with his energy and perfect fit with Joe, how enjoyable!

[@muhammadaqsathfaza9532]

an astronaut, a doctor, a fireman, a policeman, and also a guitarist. what a lad!

[@gentlerabbit6852]

was that a johnny sins joke lmao

[@DQ62992]

damn hahahaha

[@megahurtz30]

Probably the best guitarist ever. Not a single failed note, or out of time, or lack of expression. Joe is the man !

[@ghostofnavigator8934]

Joe was born with a guitar in his hands.

[@PaulsChannel779]

Agreed...but Steve Vai is just as good...if not better in some styles.

[@oscarcoors318]

Dont forget Buckethead and John 5 !

[@TheYoshi115]

Paul Sacco let's not forget who gave lessons to Vai 😏

[@RockDistortoBestiale]

Joe is fantastic, but there are many guitar players all around the world which are amazing and don't ever miss a note, go to see Andy Timmons, for example... a lot of expression, virtuosity and precision. And what about Guthrie Govan?.....

[@FlyingGemSparkly]

Roses are red, violets are blue; when I listen to Satriani, my neighbors do too! 😎🤯🤩👌👍👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@shanemahler6830]

Rock on!!

[@karmakeddonwarrior]

It's just 45th time i read this rhyme...

[@javichuification]

AND THAT IS HOW IS DONE ..RIGHT ON !!

[@davidscott1052]

went next door to my neighbour and told him to turn the music up as I couldn't hear it properly

[@Sergeant_Blain]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHA

[@Timliu92]

This is why Joe is incredible - not just for his virtuosic guitar skills, but for being able to write top notch, memorable instrumentals such as this. It is one thing to be able to play, it is another to write incredible, thematic instrumentals, which is what Joe always does successfully.

[@HimanshuSharma-vt8ke]

exactly man. anyone can play as Marty Friedman has said. anyone who has trained 24*7 in a closed room for a decade will be able to play anything his/her heart desires. but achieving the tonality and creativity and writing such memorable and heart touching music takes a whole next level of creativity and passion for the art.

[@michelemanocchio1297]

Joe certainly does have the gift of creativity and ingenuity that few have been given that talent from their Creator above...

[@MrDibyapradhan]

Exactly, i have not heard any other guitarist who could compose music like him. It sounds like each and every note has fallen at the right place. He is simply incredible.

[@fabiodandrea4951]

You got exactly the point. That's what makes Satriani one of the greatest.

[@richardmathew9465]

Timliu92 not mention the great drummer and bass slammer.. 🙂

[@davidbaines7330]

Props to the dude playing rhythm guitar. What a team player that really deserves more recognition filling out the sound of the band than he’ll ever get. What a fantastic gig. 🤘

[@fishfoolishness4222]

He's was also the road manager

[@CorM1]

​@@fishfoolishness4222 and producer also i believe

[@crazycrentax]

And gets to learn from one of the best guitar teachers in the world :)

[@pergustafsson1155]

Joe really has a world class rythm section!

[@timradabaugh5846]

Galen Henson I think is his name, if I remember correctly.

[@bloodjob7724]

WE are in 2023. It's been nearly 30 years that i listen to that song and still have shivers. Formula 1 on PlayStation made me discover Joe's World, And ever since I played guitar and that song, which may one if my very favorite. I Love you Joe ! You're a LEGEND

[@channelakuwoi]

Zidane plays guitar and Puyol on Bass I enjoy it . . .

[@wahiddsign4590]

hahaha, he is vin diesel

[@badaiindragiri8322]

Xavi hernandes play rythim

[@ngakakchannel4252]

i think its jonny sins

[@gilangpaska9765]

Is there any people notice about it?

[@alan220781]

hahaha you made my day bro .. they really look the same haahahah

[@nbrowser]

This...this kids is music...real instruments, real musicians...soul...a groove and talent. Joe, this is my fave song of all time ever, never stop rockin man!

[@AlexDiesTrying]

Yes, it is.

[@indigofruit59]

I love the way joe's appearance is totally unadorned - just the black outfit and the big smile. Everything else is in the playing and the performance.

[@Crovax]

And that stunning ibanez on his hands

[@bakurasplanet4502]

*Joe is one of the most talented people in the world that isn't a freaking weirdo ..... he's just a cool nice guy!* 👍

[@Killereggman]

Hey, his glasses are pretty weird! And his head looks like it's been surfing with the aliens!

[@maureent6800]

He ROCKS SEEN HIM TWICE ALLWAYS !!!!!!

[@skidzholeshot1316]

whats wrong with freakin weirdos ,ill bet theres something about you thats strange,we all have our secrets,me i dont give a fk what people think,i enjoy life ,you are not here to judge people .

[@terryroth428]

Saw him live 3 times, each one with Stu Hamm on bass. His precision is unmatched, his sound control is unmatched . His music goes somewhere instead of just a bunch of fast scales played. He is the God of 'burn guitar".

[@grunt1028]

Been wondering who plays bass. Obviously the satch has a good relationship with him, he's a killer bassist!

[@paulsteezo1772]

Stu Hamm....OH HELL YEAH

[@paulsteezo1772]

Dave LaRue on BASS

[@billxx2445]

One of the reasons why I love Joe so much is his ability to make the guitar “sing”. His song writing is so emotional and moving.

[@user-kp7kh5ho2o]

History has never seen a man like Joe Satriani, and will never see anyone great like him. Satch is the real meaning of an unrepeatable and complete musician and guitarist. 🎶🎶❤❤👍👍

[@golagaz]

Joe Satriani is THE dictionary definition of instrumental electric guitar. He collaborates with such talented musicians you can read their joy of working with Joe Satriani. Massive respect to Joe.

[@angushc1615]

This intro is the best thing in the world

[@patspat]

Yes that guitar solos is just pure masterpiece!

[@Voice17393]

Best Intro!

[@Voice17393]

Best Instrumental Song!

[@Ale70594]

I couldn't be more agree with you.

[@frankdiscussion2069]

Yeah the audience was faked out by the intro which was very cool.

[@weistortny]

Joe makes it looks so damn easy and effortless (It isn't). And that is why is one of the greatest guitarists today. Period.

[@9one9Music]

The crowds aren't there to party, they're there to watch him play and perform. They want to see him do it Live. That's the majesty of Satriani's performance. No spectical: Everyone saying Prove It. And he's done it for years, longer than anyone else. He's an Alien. 👽🎸🎶

[@markoman1988]

I´m a guitarist and Joe Satriani ´s guitar solos has been a great source of inspiration to me as long as I´ve played. (about 20 years now.) Keep up the good work, Joe!

[@gabsinvermont9233]

awesome!!! I just got started..well last year ..slowly...not easy at all but my heart and soul is there..and my fingers lol

[@oscarmere1365]

show us your vidoes bro..we are curious

[@kathyjaissle6791]

This song reminds me of a gorgeous summer day, flying down the highway with your hand out the window and the wind blowing your hair around, and this FABULOUS song blasting out of your radio!!! Every time I hear this song I get such a huge smile! Pure joy!!!!!!

[@jeosatriani8256]

Thank you so much for your support and nice comment. Hope my music gives you joy? I really appreciate you ❤️❤️💋

[@AntonioBrucoli]

Melody, tecnique, feeling....SATCH! 💥

[@noZiggy]

I went to see him live back in 2016, whatever he does at @5:12 hit right in the spot. So amazing guitarist, and I'm happy I got to see him live. One of the greatest!

[@user-iq6cc3df3l]

This song is absolutely exhilarating. That’s all I’ve got.

[@Jmilillo]

Joe is amazing, but can we give some love to Jeff Campitelli? He’s a machine! His drumming on the Crystal Planet album is some of the best I’ve ever heard.

[@markusschaffer9712]

Truth indeed! Roadrunner and Joe compliment each other.

[@vicenzor3625]

Always cracks me up when people come to these video performances of star players and want to give love to the backing band members by name. Yeah, of course they're going to be great, a fucking master of virtuosic guitar isn't going to be playing live with a shit backing band!

[@bataleon112]

Jeff is an absolute train machine!

[@jamesrohl9558]

He’s playing a great power groove that is what Joe needs here. Some drummers overplay when in this situation, but Jeff plays exactly what is needed for the song, no more no less. And his DW kit sounds fantastic if I may say so….

[@Purefunkx]

As much as it is a joy for us to hear this music.... you can also tell it is a joy for them to play it for us. Love these guys.

[@xilonqmb]

Legends say he is still holding that note to this day

[@lobatoulr7154]

😆😅😄😃😂😁😀✌

[@johnbeyenberg4032]

This man is remarkable. In the top 10 of all-time. Thanks Joe for all you've done and continue. We are truly blessed. Pops

[@chamberedlp9123]

Sadly it was Jimi Hendrix's passing that inspired a 14 year old kid to pick up a guitar and never, EVER look back. Jimi must be smiling like a proud big brother to say WOW and I thought I was good!! JS the benevolent space Alien guitar god and my go to axe hero!!!

[@golfhound]

Jimi Hendrix did have his moments where he was unmatched by anyone. Star Spangled Banner at Woodstock and Machine Gun off of his Band of Gypsies album.

[@bz-storm8055]

Don't know how many times I've enjoyed this. Highly refined talent, from Joe's fast fret work to his extended trilling note - and that final crashing chord. The entire band is top-shelf. Helluva perfomance!

[@tranquilo1966]

Bass player is also amazing

[@OldManOnTheMt]

The bass player is Dave Larue . If you want a true listen to mans ability listen to any track from the Steve Morse Band’s Stressfest album .

[@bruvvamoff]

I know not many people even realise the difficulty in live sound, blending the bass with the kick drum, making the rhythm background without losing power, making the lead stand out without sounding screechy. This set up is simply perfection. Go ahead and turn it up, it'll sound better.

[@tutti4807]

Give him the subwoofer + center ...👌🤣

[@bruvvamoff]

@@tutti4807 So much work goes into making the sound before you even consider liste ing to it

[@adnanahmed9044]

its all balanced so nicely

[@mancitypreston]

Whenever I am in need of cheering up - I always play this. Absolutely uplifting symphony of sound.

[@karsunmar1851]

Masterpiece....Salute from Croatia...Long live Joe Satriani...

[@Mark-hn5hu]

Came here for Jeff Campitelli. This trio is perfect. The best Drum and Bass for Joe's music.

[@HaydenMcCarry]

He has such an amazing tone in this concert, love it!

[@dignouhagstromdegilead29]

Amazing, perfect, Satch is a god

[@loriannunziatamountain9920]

Bella....this song Nevers gets old !!!

[@Carlosalvarado-bz1tf]

The first time I heard Satriani play, i was hooked. This guitar sounds amazing 🤩🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@mustaineboots]

I swear. I have never seen someone hit natural harmonics so clear with distortion for as many times as he did.

[@johnbeyenberg4032]

The performance at the Grove in Anaheim, next to Angel stadium. What a wonderful event. Joe appreciates his fans and responds with enthusiasm. Thanks Joe, for taking us musically to places we didn't know existed.

[@forgotmyname4971]

I saw him there in the 2000s, might have been this show. That place has great acoustics. Billy Idol sounded incredible too.

[@James-ix2jz]

they were enjoying themselves..and it shows..they were relaxed...awesome

[@NeilRaouf]

I googled „best guitar players“ back 1999. Joe came up. I broght the G3 dvd. My life has never been the same. Thank you sir!

[@zacharias7284]

There may not be a human ever to have existed who exudes as much confidence as Joe Satriani performing live. He knows he’s a legend. He knows he’s shredding. He knows he’s one of the only people who can pull off wearing sunglasses indoors. It’s such a treat to watch him perform live. He feeds off the crowd. The crowd feeds off him. He showboats but never comes across as arrogant.

[@TriangleSoftDhaka]

Cruising speed on a desolate road from Abidjan to San Pedro, Ivory Coast, 4 friends, groovy SUV and this music! 2007! Unforgettable!

[@ricodagami4471]

That groove! The best there is!

[@phenixreturns]

it was a tribute to AC/DC he likes Angus : ) and it's true , listen to whole lotta rosie

[@AlexDiesTrying]

So far I have not heard a better version of this song. Listened to it way over 100 times. By now I get most of it, not all, but most. Boy, what a ride. Listen to it at half speed and it'll still be just as precise. It's uncanny.

[@timradabaugh5846]

I love this song. Jeff Campitelli on drums looks like he’s having such a great time.

[@schl0tte]

The only band that requires no vocalist. Joe lets the guitar speak and sing

[@leestewart9510]

Love that no voice

[@marklight5735]

He did sing on his 2nd album. Ride, Big Bad Moon(?), and I Believe.

[@wannaberabbi9302]

Mark Light there’s also some on “is there love in space”

[@MH-ie8dy]

Absolute talent.

[@pobsdad]

@@jesseclaborn749 You missed Buckethead.

[@darlenejeanson7131]

I started listening to Joe many years ago, back when he had hair! He, in my opinion, is one of the greatest guitarists & there are lots of them out there! Keep on keeping on Joe - yu’re the man!!

[@terryroth428]

I have followed Joe for almost 30 years, seen him perform live 3 times. I don't know how you can get much better than him. He has mastered bending sound, technical knowledge and precision playing with a guitar. There are other great "burn Guitarists" out there, I really never get tired of listening to Joe, I can't say that for the others.

[@codychickadee5095]

The last couple of times I saw Joe it would have been in the last 5 years or so, he was on fire. This last concert in 2018 was a delight. Some of Joe's trem arm magic was the highlight of the concert for me. He was nailing it. I close my eyes I can still hear it.

[@timothyschneider7570]

This is freaking amazing music,long live joe snatch forever

[@camiloaguirre260]

[@ROCKMANZELDA]

this is the best music for NAscar , F1, Rally, Motocross, etc etc

[@mx3fto]

Harmonics on the bass are frigging beautiful. Thank you to the sound engineer for getiing everything in this one

[@ronaldelliott4373]

Dave La Rue is a monster bassist whose solos are some of the most interesting progressions of both logic and melody. His work with longtime collaborator Steve Morse, (Dixie Dregs, Dregs, Deep Purple etc) is Top Shelf.

[@ta_morrz8133]

I’ve seen this 100 times. And I still get goosebumps and how good a player he is. That intro is pure art.

[@ulissesscarparo3164]

Always fantastic. Thank You for new vídeos.

Unbelieable, I will see him at the 16th April 20 here in Zurich. Cant wait, he is such a special Musician.

[@andresmendez6870]

This is the first song I ever heard from Joe, I think I was about 15 back then. And I've been hooked ever since

[@matrags]

The solo that begins around 5:36 has always been my favourite part of this song.

[@matrags]

Great tonality.

[@brandontay2053]

The verse is always my favourite

Yeah agreed. Incredible melodic phrasing. Only Schenker does it better.

[@Tvpc1971]

Such a masterpiece!

[@KingGrio]

After a long time playing the guitar, I gotta say, making the guitar be the equivalent of the lead vocal in a song, with all the little details of expression, the tone not too abrasive, yet still bright and cutting through, full, warm. It's really an amazing thing.

[@Kittyzeee77]

Joe Satriani managed to inspire modern rock guitaris!

[@elflakeador09]

I've still yet to hear a greater piece of music, this is the ultimate feel good tune, epic piece of music.
