[@massimos6863]

Michael Landau One of the best guitarist in the Planet ❤🎸👍👍

[@MarkMahar]

Gary Novak on the drums ...Landau is eloquent on the guitar, so many voices and phrases, a real joy to listen to. NEVER boring

[@abefroman1970]

Mike has the best thumb and fingers tone in the world. His beautiful control of the open strings and tone..........Amazing.

[@Holdsworthy]

Thanks for the clip, mike just gets better and better... the palying is so thoroughly MUSICAL! Just love it :-) Hope there'll be a dvd out from this tour.

[@ollieusiskin]

Hi, Thanks alot for posting this Great clip.I really love the Music & playing. Gary Novak, whose playing Drums in this group is a friend & I allways love what he does! Best Regards from London, Ollie Usiskin

[@nomonkeymind]

absolutely! i've seen him a couple of times here in Chicago. He's awesome. He said in an interview that spend a year without listening to any other guitarists just to find his voice. HE's brilliant!

[@Jedizen07]

I'd say I have learned more from him in two weeks than in the last few years from everyone else. Incredible player. . . .

[@richardberry5453]

wow im completly blown away by the response i know its old but i am inspired by all the comments no bull,guitar people talking about what we love,its so interesting.i love the scott henderson talk,i love scotts playing the one person no one mentioned is actually my absolute favorite ALLEN HINDS, i actually cry sometimes his playing is filled with color and profound feeling

[@maksmail]

@LazyHammond91 It's "I'm Buzzed" from the "Tales From the Bulge" album. Also featured on "Live 2000" album.

[@QuistJam]

awesome playing, wow!! I've just uploaded a backing track with the same chord sequence as Landau's Johnny Swing...come jam!

[@gerryguitar]

the best guitarist alive today by a long long way....

[@TheZorroStudio]

Karlsruhe, that's my town and where i left my beautiful angel girl-one love...... always on my mind......

[@gerryguitar]

I'm a huge Luke fan also and I'm seeing Verheyen next Sunday... but Landau has something very special in his playing... don't know what it is but I love it...

[@dreg691]

Awesome footage man! Thanks for posting these.

[@Warmonger0077]

Michael Landau is such a player. Total tonal control, beautiful phrasing, so in command of the instrument. Some of the newer "so called" shredders or wannabies should learn from this guy, as professional and dedicated as you can get.

[@spektor88]

"I'm Buzzed." Good version on Landau's Live 2000 disc.

[@xRisingForcex]

.. This man's fretting hand is jaw-droppingly incredible.

[@HammondBluesifier]

'I'm Buzzed'

[@cho4ose]

Thank you for teaching it.

[@derekcavin7665]

I've known the name for years, but never really "heard" him. Fascinating.

[@doctorgarbonzo2525]

Michael & Steve Lukather were High School crosstown Guitar rivals back in the day in LA

[@ThumbsAtWork]

Excellent!

[@CircleCityEric]

@GuitarSlinger2112 Wow, thanks! That's boggled my mind first since I heard a track by this band I played with (members of anyway) in Indianapolis called Rok Hollywood - then the Janet Jackson #1 "Black Cat." Nice to know how it's done.

[@JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

@vracan Of course, but a lot of us love Landau's tone and playing.

[@GuitarSlinger2112]

@CircleCityEric it's hammer on/pull offs with left hand and lightly running your flesh down the strings with the right hand. Don't take your right hand off, just glide it down. Try it with left hand frets 5,3,0,5,3,0 etc... Works best on the bass strings.

[@calebaguirremusic]

this his "I'm Buzzed" from his debut album

[@PRCpower]

@lookxpress So right!! And the sound!

[@miles-178]

Gary Novak - greatest drummer breaking all the rules, he is behind all

[@Dokdude]

Great tone.

[@SYNDRONE]

u pull off with 3 fingers (5-4-2) and while doing that u slide with your right hand over the string u are playing on and move to your left hand (dont mute the string!) ;)

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

you just hammer on/pull of and run either your pick or right hand up the strings along the neck at the same time, automatically alternating between muted sounds and overtones. Usually works best on the deeper strings but it all depends on the guitar and overall sound. Obviously distortion is needed for full effect, although it can be done without for a different feel.

[@veyk]

Он гений... друзья !!!

[@maksmail]

@LazyHammond91 Which show where you at? I had a booking for the one in Milan, but I missed my plane check-in by 3 minutes so no Michael Landau for me this year :(

[@joekiddent]

@samdan20 pull offs like this work easy with a pick slide... he's just using his nail as the hard slider point and hammering/pulling off and producing the harmonics...

[@Greg763]

Wow !

[@UpjoanCrawford]

My last comment was supposed to be a reply to a comment made three pages ago.. anyway, the part that has me bewildered is that weird little harmonic/hammer/trill thing he whips out at 2.38. Anyone got any clues?

[@cho4ose]

Please teach a title of this music.

[@sam.belmontes]

what technique used in the 2:47 ,, anyone know????

[@Rampensau99]

Yes, they do!

[@ValentineGoloubev]

what is the overdrive sound come from in the beginning?

[@JoeKataldo]

Someone knows the name of the song? uhmm probably is not recorded yet on an album :-(

[@UpjoanCrawford]

Thanks dude, it all makes sense. Mike's apparent (but irrelevant) pick position had me bamboozled. I guess he had to dangle it somewhere.. of course, the rest of the song's a piece of cake..hmm..

[@francheski]

MAGICCCCCCCCC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@bytedildo]

men..he has a signature!

[@SYNDRONE]

:) very nice if u got it! otherwise ask!^^ cheers!

[@snorhyveln]

Is it Dom Famularo on trums??

[@doctorgarbonzo2525]

This guy's been touched by the hand of God! Waiting for the Dog Cheese revival!

[@lorenzmuller3542]

Unfortunately nothing has been released... Only a rough unofficial tape.

[@Taustavoima]

Now this is what I call bad ass!

[@Jennydrums]

It is Gary Novak

[@ja22manjazz]

What pick did Michael Landau use at that time?

[@UpjoanCrawford]

Any idea what's going on there? I'd love to borrow it..

the best

[@JimiJaamz]

Double Yeaaaaaa!!!

[@dryrubribs]

damn, wish the vid had the whole jam on it!!!- there's a clip from 4-4-08 ,berlin, that has a more complete version......... but shit, michael was just hittin' his groove when vid ran out........same tune, each with different ideas.....mike is a BAAD dude ! ! ! !

[@vracan]

@wildcatp7 don't agree!...ever hear of eric johnson?

[@casperbass68]

Is that Adam Nussbaum on drums?

[@xRisingForcex]

why don't you take up both?

[@germanoseggiochitarrista]

Jeff Beck Docet?

[@eddy71454]

Guitarists...come watch this guy and learn.

[@chumbo]

@vinniebourne yup, that's him

[@brosk111]

It's a Suhr guitar, not a Strat.

[@ArkaEasyRiders]

that's dom famularo on the drums?

[@nomonkeymind]

Wayne Krantz plays in that vein as well

[@ConCarneBlues]

Scott henderson send me here.. He said this was the guitar with the ultimate tone.. Guess he was right!

[@0iGer0]

What steve and scott meant is that michael landau is one of the so amazingly rare one shot guitarist of the world. PLayed over 15,000 albums becuase when you pay your studio bill it costs your house, and with michael, you pay his flight ticket, tells him what you wnat, and in one shot, your record is done. cheaper than playing yourself. Sounds "cheating" but if you play yurelf live, you don't loose your pride :D

[@b00nanza]

like it!

[@ToddPritch]

reminds me of a wayne krantz tune

[@8519y]

COOL

[@pechichemena]

whatever IT is... landau has IT.... awesome player

[@andrishandau]

he are of my family

[@veeshead]

Wow!Really great stuff.Some of the comments about this(not all of them)make me embarrassed to be a guitar player.All this stuff about the best thumb and fingers in the world and the best player alive today is such shit.Why would someone feel the need to have a best anything?Can't people just listen and love it?This kind of talk makes me forget why I love music and guitar playing so much.Dan

[@hellyea1234]

come on man? how about lukather and gilbert not forgetting Carl Verheyen. There are still some amazing guitarists around today

[@stretch54]

yeah..he's played with hundreds of people and had a whole career since then.

[@apollowe]

Steve Lukather and Scott Henderson both think Michael is at the top of the mountain!...There are a couple of new guys on the block and their names are Tristan Klein and Daniele Gottardo!!!...Search Daniele`s video titled "Cardiology" here on youtube and try doing a google search for Tristans myspace sight and listen to the track "Not Dead Yet' and that track has some of the best feel guitar on the planet!!!

[@GregF71]

@lookxpress sorry dude i know you let this comment ages ago but if there's Jeff Beck in the equation, balls don't even need to be mentioned ;)

[@Chromatype]

EVH lick from "Somebody Get me A Doctor!"

[@Rampensau99]

I wish that Burning Water come back!

[@Manolian]

Scott Henderson, Alan Holdsworth.

[@wjdfhr57]

2:22

[@tWreCK51]

Actually you pull of with 2 fingers (4-2-0) on the G string otherwise it's correct.......

[@69strathead]

that guy is a fuckin monster!

[@johnnylance]

Long live Wayne Krantz...

[@stratcat07]

its what you call very groovy harmonics haha, check out Greg Koch, he's great at it

[@EEfishy]

Don`t think Suhr makes a Landau Humbucker..

[@Tiber_FPV]

molto Jeff Beck ;)

[@backthisway]

good tip

[@UpjoanCrawford]

Er..2.48, actually..

[@JoeyLevenson]

Ive got to learn how to do that at 2:46. cool as f+ck!

[@Hollywoodconnected]

2:48 FUCKING SWEET

[@GuitarSlinger2112]

@CircleCityEric :cheers:

[@Rampensau99]

its a suhr michael landau humbucker

[@stillphil]

this is the cat ...

[@homeskillet1962]

Eric Johnson

[@TrainBorn]

The guy has great tone and touch, but his playing is just a little too rhapsodic rhythmically for my taste. I always find myself thinking, "Ok, you've floated over the beat enough ... now just lock in for a little bit to even things out ..." And he never really does. Or at least, not enough, IMHO. Killer tones, though.

[@Taurarachnos]

Gary Novak.

[@snorhyveln]

Ok Gary Novak

[@JMantas]

Suhr SSV

[@veeshead]

He is great,but doesn't remind me of Eric or Beck.This kind of guitar talk makes me wish I played piano instead of guitar.Dan

[@sam.belmontes]

what tecnique used in the 2:47 ??? anyone know???
