Insane people who play guitar.

Amazing ❤

[@phillmaverick8608]

must be in any respectable playlist

[@thorstenriedel3152]

Two Kings

[@joehernandez5600]

Eric is the real f’in deal. Amazing sense of phrasing mixed with the upside approach makes him the most unique blues player out there today IMO.

[@lucianmunteanu8751]

Și mâinile lui Gary Moore 🙏🤗...RIP Gary Moore...

[@cidertom5140]

Eric is badass

[@JSCORPIOCHILD]

Awesome..

[@erikpaterson1404]

Hot hot hot man. Awesome video!!

[@yalahamike]

All night long with these 2.....whew

[@MRSomethin1]

F_ pass the bong

What key is this in

[@darylpearson67]

49 people, WTF?

[@joehernandez5600]

OMG 9:40 they are just next leveling this shit

[@stanysrehani3570]

this men Eric he supposed tobe written in the guitar cords please he deserves that tittle

[@Gianluca.3]

Sorry, I didn't understand brother, could you explain yourself better please? Thank you!

[@damihendrix]

8:35 is just the good Lords work right there

[@timhitt9541]

I wonder why Eric was sitting down?

[@skittlesstarburst4532]

can actually see what Master Bluesman Gales is playing!! cop them licks

[@bluessax5089]

I played most of the Eric Gales solo from this video on Saxophone. I put it on my channel

[@tracysmart4042]

Gather at the slave cabin mediately after the ceremony in honor of Mr. Turner peoples who received the 1st fruits from Melchizedek

[@torgone]

If you want to learn about the pickup selector switch, watch this ..

[@bluesborn]

Gales man. Just when you think you've heard it all he slides it into an extra gear and leaves you standing there with your jawbone on your belly button.

[@TheAlbiCollier]

Didbnt expect him to jimp on that chi9cken picking phrasing and yet keep inside his own side of the blues! Brilliant execution!

[@allan775]

Gales is a beast. Check out the Eric gales Dunlop sessions video at 12:10 is one wicked solo

[@yvonnelaurenty6427]

Agree with all. I suspect some folks may object to what they think is his showboating. I just see it as the way he moves when pulling off all those amazing executions. It's just the way he grooves.

[@danxthexman82]

It's a great jam, I like Josh and Eric's playing but the ha's from Eric isn't doing anything for me besides messing up the song

[@elevenAD]

I know both are not technically Fenders but still Leo has got to be looking down like a Boss!

[@joefitzsimons711]

Moist

[@kenmurphy6792]

Soaking wet! Lol

[@dankress8228]

Damn! Eric Gales plays like he is possessed!!!!🎸🎸

[@PaulinTaegu]

It's rare to see two players that can pick up the others phrase and complete it and you can't tell where one left off and the other began.

[@Knight14649]

PaulinTaegu --Greg Koch is another superb player who jams with both of these two guys at the NAMM shows. And they have a hard time keeping up with him and his odd phrasing of notes.

[@JDWH]

especially because eric is playing upside down!

[@Gianluca.3]

... Eric "Epic" Gales! So amazing... unattainable, incomparable! I really like his visceral style

[@DroogMonkey]

I'd never heard of Josh Smith. What a friggin monster. And Eric Gales is his usual incredible self. Great video.

[@bluzzedude8111]

4o yrs playing Blues and I NEVER heard of Eric Gales until about two months ago..so many out there but I'm so glad I did..what a player ! Another upside down Albert King type of player ! I also like "You ain't the boss of me" which, is the song he was playing when I first heard him on Sirius.

[@LUckybones25]

Yea, they are both freakin amazing!

[@seanfitzpatrick7878]

This video was my introduction to Josh Smith a few years ago. I knew about Eric at that point but not Josh. I remember thinking to myself, "who does this cowboy think he is?". Lmao!! Just a few seconds into the tradeoff portion and... well you know what happened.

[@jamesjohnson1522]

Both of these gentlemen are two of the best.

[@bentul7422]

@@seanfitzpatrick7878 he is the boss

[@Stratblooz]

SRV would have loved Eric Gales

[@cesaralexander4539]

they actually met.

[@Dante3085]

Me: 1. Wow, this is amazing 2. Damn, I guess I'll finally stop playing guitar... Both start going together 3. FUUUUUUUUCK, that was soo inspirational, I guess I keep playin'

[@weika1000]

RESPECTFUL interaction of great artists, one of the most beautiful things that can happen....

[@soerenguitarlessons9947]

Eric Gales is a natural force. No filter. Amazing

[@thomvogan3397]

I've seen a lot of awesome players jam together but I don't think I've ever seen two players enjoy it so much. Brilliant

[@kikihskye]

I would love to hear you play again.

[@f4yr2p]

what about robben ford and larry carlton?

[@alansmith7626]

makes me wanna drink some brown liquor...lol...tasty indeed!

[@davidphilipsmusic]

When Josh pulls out those fast country runs and Eric goes "aaagghhh!!" so much fun!!

[@yvonnelaurenty6427]

Just his natural, spontaneous responses to beautiful phrases, his and other's. Love it.

[@skittlesstarburst4532]

What country... that was all blues bud.

[@WeAreNotAmused]

Hope for the future after all

[@lerik97]

[@bzlax]

This is amazing!! Been a fan of Gales for a while now I have to look up Josh Smith this guy is an animal! i would pay to see this!!

[@missmoke007thebestmusicvideos]

billy bones getting ready to put up some more footage of Josh soon 😀

[@bzlax]

that's great news...i'm part of a large artist/musician collective I'm def gonna spread the news & share these videos...keep 'em comin'!!

[@bmass520]

Josh is out of S. Florida. We started watching him when he was amazing at about 15 and playing lots of Stevie Ray and Jimi which is what everyone wanted. He had long wavy blonde hair and a Stevie Ray hat. When he graduated high school he leaned more toward the rock trio and started writing and touring.

[@treborin]

Wooowww. Looove this. Please repeat!!!! Modern blues is here.....

[@maxwellgarcesguitar]

Pure brutality

[@ideath173]

Gales is so far ahead of the pack. It's Planet Gales and then the minor planets

[@clausmadsen6754]

Josh Smith the accomplished technician, never hitting a wrong note, Gales the crazy wild force, hitting a few misses, but then also the one happening on pure genius regularly

[@daveedson32]

I’m not sure there’s a better example of joy out there.

[@paulsimmons59]

smashed it ,end of ,WOW

[@bazjanagain]

Great playing. They seem to have a lot of love fore each other's skills. Who gave this thumbs down ?

[@mongrel8074]

Someone who never picked up a plugged-in six-string.

[@bazjanagain]

only explanation. thanks for your reply

Someone who is a justin's beaver, and kanye west fan boy.

[@west4coast77]

Wowzer! Josh and Eric sure know how to share a musical conversation. Epic! Kudos to Jaydon and Nick for the solid foundation. Thanks for sharing.

This guy’s make me feel so good

[@danieltzaj1437]

How come these guys aren’t involved in crossroads

[@jonathanwentor]

real blues mans ! Josh Smith and Eric Gales

[@amoneyshredder9513]

I don’t need all the fortune and fame , I’d love to just jam with those guys and vibe

[@iwillnevergetone5]

hollllly shit. that friendship//chemistry !

[@jonathanwentor]

real blues mans ! Josh Smith and Eric Gales

[@krimisim]

This is so sick

[@TJJJJJJJJJJJ]

That Gales bloke is decent can some one just get him a left h guitar

[@leskobrandon691]

It would defeat the purpose Cuz he plays his right handed guitar strung for a right handed player, if you didn't notice, which to me, makes him that much more incredible playing those crystal clear runs at blinding speed, articulating each note, especially in his chord playing. Truly amazing to me.

[@2hardbackrub743]

Lololol!!!

[@ramsfire]

Talk about "Cuttin' Haids".....these two are on their way to the Pantheon of Master Axemen that have passed through this Dimension. Respect.

[@daveycmusic5150]

Great players. Playing a genre more beat and boring than hip hop.

[@gitwiz]

Nice one. You have some great vids on your channel.

[@BuonGiorno67]

Thank you Linda !!!! Amazing quality and great music... Kenneth..

[@DialToneTP]

When the music feels too good to you, it sounds like this!!!!

[@alward5678]

Josh is the total package. Like his feel, note choice, in and out playing, tone, and singing, and the whole enchilada..

[@missmoke007thebestmusicvideos]

Josh is great!! Such a fantastic player!

[@bluzzedude8111]

I've been looking for the perfect slow blues song to record and I think I found it. I'm really glad you put this on !

[@yogiguitar1]

a real treat for your ears man!

[@johncolic2269]

There is Eric Gales, and there are all these amazing players, caught in his orbit. Like Jimi, he is tuned in to that magic frequency.

[@roderickgardner3483]

Both of these gentlemen are very talented!!! What an amazing collaboration of talents to enjoy each other skills and get along well! This is the American way and America I want to live in!!!! Outstanding!!!

[@monsterjoejcm]

Both best guitar players, amazing

[@omegalast800]

...class jam,great vid'!

[@yvonnelaurenty6427]

Enjoying the he'll out of this. I have a jazz loving friend who doesn't get Eric Gales. But I have a string playing friend who doesn't either, which is incomprehensible. ???

[@blackie8083]

Eric and Josh are amazing as usual, but that drummer holding it down, Damn!...What's his name?? Jaydon Bean.

[@ericgustin7079]

That was thoroughly enjoyable!!

[@sawdust6968]

As a player listening to these 2 play will "KILL OR CURE" you as a guitarist.

[@chrisb.4697]

You guys make me cry 👍

[@christiandario6988]

Amazing!! The best guitar player ERIC

[@fburtt]

I don't think I've ever seen 2 players have a better time: they're loving it and killing it!

[@viruszatu1]

6:36 I hope someone will look at me the way Eric is watching his guitar

[@alexbueno6811]

Those were some sweet licks at the start of the video from Josh... does anyone know what kind of guitar he is playing? it’s some kind of telecaster imitation

[@izzahatiraazif8062]

Eric gales.. Harrr yeah harr no one gitar king of blues.. 😍🎸🤘

[@gaztaylor9682]

Amazing and totally inspirational music from these wonderfully humble musicians. Thank you for sharing this Linda :) I MUST get myself on one of these blues cruises sometime!!

[@firecat-dy9go]

Gary, you will NOT be disappointed! 2017 cruise is sold out but there is a waiting list.

[@gaztaylor9682]

Thanks for the heads-up. I better get on the list then :)

[@erniewhite7997]

Gary Taylor this is i hope your'er from the area of VAN COUVER,Canada?ifso hit me back.

[@gaztaylor9682]

Hey Ernie, thanks for your response.... I'm from the UK, sadly a few miles from Vancouver. A trip to Canada is definitely on my wish-list though, so who knows :)

[@bluzzedude8111]

I hear ya Gary...I'd love to do one of these. I couldn't imagine a better time !

[@sumoblues]

Josh has a very deep vocabulary on total recall that he pulls from "as needed". Eric is a playful master not unlike Yoda.

[@robinmorris5416]

The devil left a thumbs down after these two just out played him for their souls. True bad assert!

[@joshmuz9018]

Love the way gales whole head,body moves while he plays, that only happens to a man whose whole soul is leaking music out through his cells and they all moving as one.

[@northof50now]

Though Josh can shred, he is an absolute master at the slow blues

[@singles6995]

8:53

[@joezappia817]

Now that’s a cruise that I would of loved to be on, hopefully there will another in the future. Long live the blues anywhere, anytime all the time.

[@Nikoo033]

Liked the drummer too, enjoying himself!

[@allanpolk2681]

Never saw this vid of Josh and Eric cutin heads until tonight. Big fan of both of them. A ton of blues talent on the stage here.

[@buzzbaldwin1650]

Great stuff! Makes we want to give up about as bad as Stevie Ray did.

[@londonuk70]

Eric Gales = Blues Master, period.

[@WeAreNotAmused]

Young fiery prodigal maestro not unremeniscent of a nother. Virtuoso hit the scene couple decades back by name of Stanley Jordan. . But this kid has all the indicators in his sound of staying power . Shit was off the hook , muy excellente!!!
