PAUL GILBERT - Man On The Silver Mountain - Paris 2013

Man On The Silver Mountain @ La Flèche d'Or Paris

[@smokoykolokoy9673]

playing lead guitar while singing ..... any guitarist will agree that this is a difficult thing to do .... Paul is an Insane Guitar God !!!

[@BoogyWoogyCreep]

Paul has to be the greatest modern day guitarist. Very few, if any can do what he can. It's not always about speed...

[@perturabo619]

Even though he can play insanely fast and still his picking is surprisingly clean.

[@joepetrick3657]

Paul makes everything look so simple, Great musician!

[@MrMolack]

Best cover of that song ever! Bravo!

[@gordonmarshall8397]

No it’s really not. Dio’s version is insane

[@ziggy72170]

Dude's ,, Ranked in my 10 Best Guitarist's of all Time !(If you ask Me)

[@adriantrott5059]

The finest Rock guitarist on the planet...Paul Gilbert!

[@MrOldnslofly]

I will agree though some may not. The dude can shred, play blues, or whatever you want. Plays with way more feeling compared to racer x days. Not that I disliked the racer x era.

[@adriantrott5059]

Good comment my friend....yes Paul has more feel and knowledge than most other axemen ...me included....cheers!

[@RTOneZer0]

Incredible soloing.

[@manbearpig2164]

Awesome

[@image30p]

Really beautiful playing. Just absolutely top level. But you need a singer my man. There's a ton of people who would do for free. I'm one of them.

[@grumlee]

Et il porte mon tshirt ! :D Quel concert, c'était trop trop bon :)

[@Isabelle1956]

évidemment tu étais au premier rang ! bravo pour les vidéos !

[@massapower]

Well definitely not Blackmore or Dio... But I still appreciate Gilbert as a Guitarist 😎🤟

[@repetitivemotion]

Paul Gilbert is a master of guitar. Ritchie is the master of hard rock riffing. Ritchie has written more great hard rock songs than anybody, even Tony Iommi.

[@darrenlay3198]

I couldn't have said that better myself

[@joshuastephens7465]

🤘

[@MK-md3jb]

Nice fun jam, possibly paying tribute to the masters Rainbow

[@ornical]

Fucking killed it. Awesome solos.

[@blakejohnson7148]

Great job Paul and BTW I've never seen anyone play that solo correctly including Ritchie himself!

[@FriesinNF]

Yes, but Ritchie never played the solo live as good as on record! Including the arpeggio.

[@eoinjennings519]

That makes me feel better I mangle it every time 😂

[@seabud6408]

Am I the only person who hears that he isn't playing the riff that Ritchie recorded? I don't read music but he is playing two notes after the 5th note of the riff instead of holding the 5th note for another beat. His solo would fit better with a song written avh ( after Van Halen). He of course is a fantastic player but I agree with another post stating that he doesn't get the feel of this song right.

[@gordonmarshall8397]

Seabud agreed - his only fault is that he overplays a bit

[@gordonmarshall8397]

The only time I think this guy sounds like he’s pushing it is when he plays Blackmore

[@3TVforall]

I like the more modern version by the Dio solo band . The original seems slow ...idk still cool 🤘🏻Paul is still awesome too 🤘🏻

[@kertbert1]

This guy could teach me a few tricks in an hour. That otherwise I'll never learn...LoL

[@spaceavenger54]

Wow, I always preferred Vivian Campbell s version of this to the original, and Paul seems to play it more like the original, until the solo, where he totally reminds me of how Vivian used to play it. Both those guys are a few of my favorite guitarist, Blackmore,not so much despite that he wrote some awesome tunes.

[@umikusrinten8436]

Hail Blackmore and Dio!!

[@CatInTheHat.]

Super 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@SomeDudeOnline]

Ya know, this has got to be the only time I've heard a cover by Paul and not thought the guitar sounded better than the original. This still sounds great but usually I think to myself 'wow, that sounds so much better than the original'.

[@johnoberle9750]

SomeDudeOnline no one sounds as good as Ritchie Blackmore. I’ll take that to the grave.

[@yoshy6821]

Paul never can become Ritchie! Ritchie's solo was nice and memorable but Paul's wasn't . And his voice was terrible. He should not sing.

[@drewmanster6043]

Ritchie Blackmore is that legendary.

[@harmonyandmore]

Very nice. Um..I mean... Tres bon!

[@ScottHarrison-dz6tz]

Just as good as Ritchie blackmore

[@AldoKoskettimet]

\m/ this shows one can cover a Blackmore's song, but don't even try to mess up with Ronnie Dio \m/

[@in2rock275]

Playing AND singing? Very hard to do. Makes it look easy. Wish my fingers were that long (so does my gf, wink wink).

[@CatInTheHat.]

Во зараза снял ведь а 😂😂😂😂😂! Умница 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@wendelllatimer4146]

Great guitar work. But his singing leaves a lot to be desired. Ritchie Kotzon on the other hand is both a terrific guitarist and vocalist. Don't know if he'd play a better lead I doubt it but his vocals would put Paul to shame. I think Paul was just having fun though. First time I ever heard Paul sing.

[@joetheplummer8128]

good cover , but Blackmore is something else .

[@Animalverse77]

yups...

[@youlikethisusername]

Paul....never, never, never try to cover a Ronnie vocal.

[@PanoramaAudioMusic]

But, play and sing at the same time "the man in the silver montain is complicated" lol.

[@johnoberle9750]

Or Ritchie Blackmore on guitar.

[@Namqul13]

he can do whatever he wants, myob

[@Vincent-fo7xp]

He just released the whole album of Ronnie James Dio covers hahaha f*** you

[@drewmanster6043]

It's not a standalone vocal cover. He's playing guitar, with his band. This is how most covers are done. Just because he isn't the greatest metal vocalist of all time doesn't mean he can't cover a song in his own way. He's not trying to "beat" Dio. He's paying tribute to him here as he has on his recent album.

[@csvelec]

1 octave highher singing

[@АлександрЯсевич-и7ц]

Если не певец- НЕ ПОООООООООООЙ !

[@zmb5501]

Way better solo than the original

[@donDonau]

Are you def?

[@flemminghedemann8119]

Amazing Singer, he should give up learning guitar

[@kqh123]

Better than Dio himself

[@ГеоргийМяделец]

Эта не Ваш шедевр!!!

[@lucianmunteanu8751]

Dar este in prima linie a chitărilor in lume...

[@efraimfatrle3689]

wow i just watched this your better than blackmore wow

[@seabud6408]

I've seen Ritchie live around 10 times (all Rainbow and Purple incarnations on every British tour since 1972) I can assure you, though I appreciate Paul Gilbert's skill, no one who copies Ritchie has his spirit, attack and feel. He's also the best showman who ever slung a guitar over his shoulder, in my opinion. Anyone can copy a part .... coming up with this great song and solo (on the original version) is another matter.

[@efraimfatrle3689]

yeah as i think about it more richy blackmoure is so much better then him

[@efraimfatrle3689]

and richie is much better he made all these songs up paul justs plays them

[@marcocremonte664]

Forse Ritchie Blackmore non lo hai mai visto suonare spiace 😂

[@papasmurf5925]

Guitar is Awesome! Couldn't hear his voice.

[@СергейПетров-б3ч]

You are the great guitarist but not a vocalist.it is not yours...
