Paul Gilbert - I Own A Building (Behold Electric Guitar)

[@peppierecords7208]

There are reasons why i or we love Paul gilbert.... 1. He is one of the most Humble and funny guitarist when it comes to communicate and sharing knowledge. 2. He has really evolved...he explored every genre from metal to blues and jazz...not just a shredder...but a musical shredder. 3. He appreciates other artists and stay far from competitive world. He believes in having fun and you can see everytime he plays it. 4. He is getting better and better with age like wine. His recent albums are so much versatile. 5. I cant even play 1% of what he plays but still love him coz he is really a positive and beautiful soul. And one of my fav musician of all time. Love from India.

[@burroughs334]

You nailed it! This is why I love Paul, too. A true inspiration.

[@fenderbento]

YESSSSSS

[@stuhrling302]

Spoken like a true Paul Gilbert fan!

[@petecanthropus9947]

Yep. The only thing I hate about him is that his pinky is longer than my middle finger! LOL

[@darrenhemann6645]

I agree with you. One more thing that I would add to your list... I love Paul Gilbert because every time he picks up a guitar he is like a kid with a new toy. There is just so much joy and fun whenever he plays and that comes across every single time I see him play. That is what makes him special in comparison to some other musicians.

[@cocktailsanddreams]

Is it possible to ever get tired of watching this gift to humanity play guitar?

[@downtown4028]

Truly, it is so wonderful to have people use the gift that God provided them with such beauty.... wonderful.

[@warezpl0]

This album is good vibes all around. Paul continues to evolve in humble ways, very rarely overplays these days. He is a perfect example of someone who has nothing to prove anymore and has truly matured in his craft as a result. His playing is as free as ever. It's great.

[@MycketTuff]

Young people can't play slow. It takes age and lots of practice to get there.

[@dougdavis8986]

Play a song with a melody and this is what happens.

[@brandonl3464]

I don't think anyone would complain if he 'overplayed' a little now and then. Viking Kong will forever be one of the best guitar masterpieces ever created.

He's playing better than ever. Amazing!

That's because for this album he composed vocal parts with lyrics and then translate into guitar only, for what I understand.

What a LEGEND!!! No other words come to mind. In my dreams I can see Paul playing an album with BUCKETHEAD..... It's a wonderful dream.....

I love when you play so melodic. Beatiful. It's a nice mixture of Hsrrison slide style, jazz, and prog, with that unique touch of yours.

[@exodus8202]

These melodies and chord progressions give you a cheerful yet slightly remorseful vibe. Just like someone who owns a building reminiscing his whole life's hard work getting there. Love it.

Paul's playing is developing. Love that slide work on this one. This is a group of amazing musicians and PG is the best possible leader they could have ^^

So many kind words here in the comments. So let me add my two cents. You never cease to amaze Paul! You always inspire me to play. Thank you for that.

[@ajaymansur4769]

I knew Gilbert as one of the greatest guitarists, but I never heard so melodic song from him. Heavenly

[@PDXguitarfreak]

I love Paul's tone - so thick, and he doesn't overdo the effects. Every time I watch live videos of him jamming with other guitar players, the others always sound thin and fuzzy compared to him.

[@harrybalszak7526]

Saw him for the first time ever last night. Jesus Christ. It’s one thing to watch on a computer, a completely other to feel and see him make it right in front of me.
