PAUL GILBERT - Hard Rock/Heavy Metal Guitarist and Educator (Mr. Big, Racer X)

[@donnyroxlive-youtubechanne9482]

Yes...his Enthusiasm, energy, wit, entertaining and personable...just the best

[@JohnDoe-jc3cl]

I could not agree more. I never listened to Racer X in the 80s.

[@Samurai78420]

A true, genuine Guitar Hero. No BS. Humble. Kung-Fu Zen, 100%. The guy who can beat the absolute FK out of anyone, but absolutely never would. What a true Legend.

[@joerobinson2538]

‘If you have a lightbulb why make it look like a candle. If you have a car why make it look like a horse”-Paul Gilbert 2020. One of the greatest quotes ever! 👍

[@kxmrock]

referring to relecing a guitar?, i'm curious … thx

[@christopherjackson8958]

A horse sounds cooler than a car, but I know he means to not pretend you're less advanced/able than your are

[@fredcummins2625]

His assessment of his musical conquests are presented as a matter of fact. He loves music. He loves teaching. Lucky for me he is a genius at both !

[@feddomeijerwiersma6955]

“A hotdog is a sandwich” - also Paul Gilbert.

[@davidhall7648]

Paul is the rare combination of Brilliant Guitarist and Brilliant Human Being ❤

[@karlsalocks]

The world needs more Paul Gilberts

[@user-qr7ee2cp4y]

Paul doing his "Clark Kent" impression... give him a guitar and watch him become superman.

[@scot-combs]

Paul Gilbert is a national treasure.

[@robertbrown1778]

I think it's impossible not to like this guy.

[@scorpionsaloon4169]

Big Paul Gilbert fan here for sure, but that interviewer was exceptional. He asked solid questions and gave his subject space and time to answer. Great job.

[@TheSessionsPanel]

Agreed! Glad to have him on our team! Thanks for watching, subscribing & sharing to bring you many more

[@geoffreymerrifield5666]

Incredible amount of talent, humble attitude, great sense of humor. That is so much better than the typical rock star attitudes, bravado, posing....

[@feddomeijerwiersma6955]

Anyone else just binging “uncle Paul” right now? The man is a joy to watch.

[@daynelawless]

Rocks up in a suit! Legend.

[@jonatankills]

Paul Gilbert is amazing. His music is getting better with age and he is so humble and happy all the time. Thanks for the video.

[@Mark-Randlesome-Tutor-and-Muso]

"If you love it so much you're going to attract good people" basically the meaning of life in the first 20 seconds of this video...... the man is a genius!!

[@ronaldwilson9525]

The best guitar player I ever saw

[@pranaakbary9924]

Rolling stones magazine must watch this!!!

[@fndjufri]

A great interview is when the interviewer asks the right questions to excite the interviewee and just lets him talk without interruptions.

[@LucOggel]

So so true

[@Wg-zx5ve]

Paul is awesome 👍.

[@DaryllHurst]

I've been a Paul listener for 30 years but I've fallen in love with Paul over the last 5-8 years. What a super guy.

[@JulesFox]

Every time Paul speaks (I've seen his clinics too) I learn so many new things. I never learned air guitar first ... I think that was and is actually my problem!

[@123jozef]

I did... to Aerosmith Live Bootleg and Nazareth... stood on my bed with my trippy mobiles and my black lights, music cranked. I could see everything, and when I finally could afford my first guitar, I just took off... and EVH's eruption had just debuted. I had started on an acoustic years before, but I was dabbling with RAM ON and Neil Diamond and J. Geils Live "blow your face out" .... Musta got lost

[@BlaireBustillo]

I love listening to the life story of Paul. I was stuck the whole 45mins of this video. Thanks Session Panel for this video.

[@TheSessionsPanel]

Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate your subscription of our YT channel!

[@Hasselblad9999]

There are many things I appreciate about Paul, and one thing I like is Paul getting dressed up for many of his interviews. It shows his respect not only for the interviewer but also the audience. Look like a pro, act like a pro.

[@terencecaldon8548]

Pablo Gilberto!!!! Ayyyyyyy!!!!!!

[@darrelldiskey7585]

Paul.......what an incredible artist and communicator. I've been playing for 50+ years and I still learn from Paul and get excited when he teaches. Thank you so much!!!

[@essentialbodyfitnesstrainer]

Paul is such a down to earth guy. He is so humble and human. Love it. Thanks for the video!

[@TheSessionsPanel]

Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching & be sure to subscribe and check out our other interviews!

[@lovetreehillrecords]

Paul is definitely an inspiring musician. One of my faves!

[@jollyvoqar195]

I prefer his older tone and shreddiness but he's still one of the best and has been a huge inspiration/influence for me over the years. Great dude.

[@Jamtron88]

Paul Gilbert is the Carl Sagan of guitar!

[@tharalalnun4364]

The most amazing ever gracious man, Paul Gilbert

[@davidmancevice7271]

Paul couldn’t be any cooler- thank god for Paul Gilbert !

[@PeterTentindo]

Paul has such a tremendous passion for music and guitar! You can tell he truly lives it and loves it, and continues to share that positive attitude with every interview and lesson I've seen him teach! He's been an amazing inspiration on my own playing and countless others as a guitarist and musician and it was a pleasure to see him get this interview and hear his cool stories.

[@andrewlaw5628]

Some of the best advice EVER!! This man has wisdom beyond wisdom!! To be able to be effective in a band situation one has to NOT PAY SO MUCH ATTENTION TO THEMSELVES!! In almost EVERY MUSICAL SITUATION I have been in , to focus on the OTHER PLAYERS, THAT is the FIRST ingredient to creating musical magic!! Gilbert, is one of the most educational players in the game.

[@UnchainedEruption]

I absolutely love Paul Gilbert. Not just one of the coolest guitarists of all time, but always such a friendly, humble guy. And a fantastic instructor. Those VHS tapes are legendary. This interview was a real treat to listen to!

[@markvincent522]

Paul Gilbert = RAD. And he just keeps getting cooler.

[@steveames5797]

Fantastic interview - kudos to both Dom and Paul. Paul was at GIT when I was at PIT and I got to know him and some of the guys he jammed with, and he's right, it was an incredible time to be in LA/Hollywood. The hard rock music scene was blowing-up, and there were still a number of years before that scene would fizzle-out due to Seattle. I wonder if Paul still has any of his old spandex? ;)

[@kenminerva]

The like button is not enough to express how much I love this! You are a great interviewer, Dom. I like how you let Paul expresses his thoughts and everything. Love you Paul Gilbert! Always!! You are a great musician, guitar player and human being! Rock n roll 🤘🏿🤘🏿

[@kevinberstler]

Paul's a homie just sharing truth about the balance between passion and moving people.

[@kojam1]

OMG! I can't believe this!!! Spent soooooo much time picking out my new glasses...FINALLY ordered a pair. The one PG is wearing was one of my top choices. I didn't get that pair. Starting to see so many people with them. NOW PG?!?!?! Should have bought them. They may give me some of his super natural ability... If you saw this bank teller looking dude on the street you would NEVER believe he's one of the most talented guitar players this planet has ever known.

[@juliusadkinsx]

Paul is a great teacher, his last album is great.

[@shannonboyd7370]

Paul Gilbert is proof that love of music can be the basis of a very fulfilling life. He has a great outlook on life and must be a great father.

[@gitarmats]

One of the best guitarists in the game, and also one of the coolest dudes!

[@am3986]

ONE OF THE BEST GUITARISTS IN THE WORLD. PERIOD.

[@EarthAltar]

Thank you KZbin algorithm for recommending this to me a year later. Geez. Awesome interview by the way. Wish I'd seen it sooner. PG is one of my absolute heroes.

[@theflyingvvvv]

Paul is the best, it was so great to see this whole interview in person.

[@QBtracksandstuff]

Wonderful interview. I chatted with Paul at one of the London Guitar Shows and he was a complete joy. He played the main hall on his own with two Marshall combos and a couple of pedals. Man he was great 👍😁

[@nelsono4315]

amazing musician and incredibly nice guy. Another great interview!

[@lotuschile]

15 SECONDS OF PURE GENIUS!......THANKS PAUL!

[@saligkaros]

Man, I had three video lessons with Paul 4 years ago in his online guitar school, watching Paul Gilbert evaluate your video playing and respond to YOU is super magic! Of course I got a level up by his advise.

[@AimanHatta]

1. Pablo is so inspiring with or without guitar. 2.. I could never feel tired listening on how he and Billy met. 3. I wished I could meet Pablo face 2 face. T__T

[@jamescarlucci9867]

[@CHAINDRIVENOFFICIAL]

Great interview! Had the pleasure of meeting Paul. He was so gracious gave me Racer X pick.

From racer x to Mr big to his great solo work he's in a league of his own

[@UnchainedEruption]

Absolutely

[@DavidLuzi]

One of the best of all times, a great musician and seems to be a cool human being

I took Paul's online course a couple of years ago when I wanted to learn how play electric lead. Every show now I never shy away from rock faces and I always play from the top of the volcano. His enthusiasm in infectious..Great interview!!!

[@Peterplayingguitar]

He absolutely doesn't look like best guitar player in the world. (but he is!)

I wish all of you and the people watching your videos,, being healthy and happy! :) God bless you!

[@Sawlon]

Paul is so funny and sooo good at guitar! He also sounds a bit like David Letterman.

[@iganpparamarta8813]

17:18 Now I know where he got that signature Gilbert 4 notes lick. I thought he came up woth the lick by himself. Thank you Al, Paul, and that unknown GIT student.

[@Nissardpertugiu]

Uli and Yngwie did too

[@chadcarrdrums]

Great interview with one of the finest guitarists on the planet. The only thing that could've made this better would've been Paul wearing his big ass headphones while being interviewed.

[@WeeFreeMan78]

[@czarpaul01]

Great interview! Paul is amazing, been listening to him since the early Racer X days

[@Progmium]

Can totally relate.

[@zxcvmjg]

My business card is my vibrato... genius!!

[@jasongooding987]

I’ve literally seen hundreds of Paul Gilbert videos and interviews, and I always learn something new.

[@mightyV444]

Oh my gosh, I can sooo relate! I felt exactly the same way Paul did about 'Mary Had A Little Lamb' after I had started with classical guitar lessons as a child! Which I eventually ditched because I wanted to *rock* , so my dear mother gave me an electric guitar for Xmas and I then just taught myself how to play :-)) Anyway, this was fun to watch gentlemen! Thank you very much! :-)

[@saltpeter7429]

For years I didnt even know you could skip acoustic and just play metal if you want, no rules. I had the same story, guitar lessons at 8, marry had a little lamb etc... years later I met a guy at church of all places that said, if you want to play rock music, cut right to it, get an electric and go at it. And from there, I had fun playing what I wanted. MORAL: dont tell kids they have to learn the basic acoustic folk shit first as a rule. Who made up this rule? It's about freedom and sound. Have fun and play what you love.

[@johnnyresin]

thank you so much for this! two of my biggest musical heroes having a nice discussion that makes me love them even more! its hard to find two people that have more enthusiasm for music than Dom and Paul! 💚

[@TheSessionsPanel]

Agreed! Appreciate your support of our channel Johnny!

Mr. Big is a fantastic band. Virtuosos who actually wrote and played songs. They were clever enough to appeal to musicians and casual listeners. Pat Torpey was one of rock's grooviest drummers. Love the band.

[@Biakrumsang]

Geez, listening to Paul talk about those early days of guitar lessons and moving on to drums hits too close to home lol. Great interview. Always admired Paul's passion and exuberance.
