Man! This reminds me of Stevie at El Mocambo. I mean that as one of the best complements I could give to any guitarist.

[@tftimboe]

Accurate🔥🔥🔥

[@dougsmith1979]

A little Carlos Santana.

[@kojam1]

Oh man! U took me back there! I remember I used to record live broadcasts whenever my local rock station here in Toronto played any. Heard that this SRV dude was playing the El. Got my recorder ready. I COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I WAS HEARING!!! wanted to rush downtown to the El to see if was suffering any structure damage because the power from that trio was incomparable!!! Sounded so much like Jimi, but 100 times more technical but with the same magic. This Sayce performance is OFF THE CHARTS, but SRV @ the El is on another level.

[@danielaugusto4800]

In case you didn't know, that dude on the organ kinda recorded Pink Floyd's "The Wall" album, also played and recorded with Queen (The synth solo on "I Want to Break Free" is his), Freddie Mercury and Brian May's solo careers, Alice Cooper, Supertramp, plus 4 or 5 albums with Elton John. The man is a living legend. Fred Mandel, remember this name! PS: Philip Sayce may not be a legend, but he is a force of nature! Good lord wtf did I just watched? Damn!!!!!

[@jAug94]

Thanks for that

[@Dor_Cohen1]

For me Philip is a legend, once in a lifetime talent! Love Philip, pretty amazing philip!❣️

[@markanderson8408]

Without a doubt Philip is legend just much different times.

[@Echocat59]

Organ is the best part of this.

[@MeTuLHeD]

Yeah...it might be easier to list the people that Fred HASN'T played with at one time or another. His session resume reads like a music industry who's-who.

[@Sneakypeanut657]

people compare Phillip to srv and Jimi, but I think he stands on his own and I've never seen anyone play the way he does, the man is on another level!

[@billhannum4117]

Yup

[@atta1798]

Nope he stands after them but no originality of his own like Jimmy or SRV ...he copied n borrowed from them ....now he needs to develop so that when we hear him we see just him

[@spatnaspolecnost]

Does this sound anything like Jimi or SRV? I don’t think so. You can always find similarities between his sound and sound of those two, but he plays his own way (never heard SRV shred up and down the scale) and has his own sound, I would never mistake his playing for other people. Unlike kws who seems to be a 1:1 carbon copy of srv :D I saw some footage from the bonamassa boat trip and kws was doing like an SRV impersonation or something. Philip blew these guys out the water but hey, at least they invited him.

[@atta1798]

@@spatnaspolecnost sure it does all the way SRV.....it does not mean he us not a great player....seems you are not a musician

[@billiepulera1008]

Same Genre basically but Heavier and i totally agree with you.

[@AslanW]

Can't wait to get into a sound proof room and crank up the volume on my guitar and fail miserably at playing as good as this guy

[@nietzsche688]

Heartbreaking experience.

[@irvwayshort9566]

Yep, inspiration dies a miserable bloody death as soon as I pick the first note. Sadness.

[@AnthonyD1986]

Hahan

[@voodoolab814]

This video made me buy a strat :D absolutely amazing play

[@clcartlidge]

Same

[@jAug94]

My dad just texted me that he’s buying a strat because of this video.

[@LostPlectrum]

WTF?!?!? I discovered Philip by an editing mistake and it turned out to be a sort of guitar genius?!?!? Truly amazing

[@AdamLeeGuitarist]

Countless shares and views since this was uploaded, something still hurts. And that's that genius of this level is at 40K views. PEOPLE of the universe - come and listen to this! There's soul, passion, inimitable talent and musicianship rolled into this video that you would probably never hear unless someone managed to revive SRV or Jimi. It's actually astonishing! I'm super picky when it comes to guitar music that I can actually listen to, and this is one of the most emotive and lyrical deliveries on record! I've got literally less guitarists than I can count on one hand on the list of players that I sit down, listen to and feel - Philip is certainly one of them. He doesn't only have incredible technique, but he plays with extremes of dynamic in one phrase, and has the most wholesome, rounded touch and vibrato out there. No one can be taught to play like this - it is a gift. This is on another level - I sorely hope that people share the hell out of this video, because this man deserves recognition for carrying a torch first lit by the greats, and for not letting that torch burn out (even in 2014). Not many can do that. Exceptional, exceptional, exceptional! (If you're reading this from my G+, please +1 and reshare this video for the good of mankind).

[@RishapWiliam]

Goosebumps and hairs standing on end listening to this - completely agree with everything you said AdamLeeGuitarist . I love the effortlessness of his playing - reminds me so much of Hendrix and the greats - 40k views WTF KZbin - write a talent algorithm that promotes things like this on the home page.

[@AdamLeeGuitarist]

THANK YOU, ***** m haha. Stuff like this is just criminally overlooked because so many people just don't know about it. Here's hoping that changes some time soon! Philip is a living legend!

[@RishapWiliam]

AdamLeeGuitarist thanks for bringing this guy onto my horizon - I've been listening to his stuff all night and all day and he is truly a living legend - going to save up some pennies and get his tracks into my library.

[@AdamLeeGuitarist]

I'm so happy to hear that! And defo! Well worth it - I love all his music, but as a whole record, I really loved 'Innerevolution' - that's got some phenomenal tracks on it. His new album's out in August - well worth a pre-order! :) *****

[@GrainboyColor]

you are so damn right. Philip is genius and deserves to be more famous. Best comment i've read in a while!

[@ian9894]

real life guitar hero.. what a fucking legend

[@fredriknystrom6330]

This is some badass shit!! Killerband!!

[@Rixx5637]

Lord have Mercy! That's some of the best playing I've heard in many moons!! I've only been listening to Philip for a few weeks, & he's already become one of my favorite living guitar players.. Nice to hear someone putting their heart into it

[@williambarney2874]

Ditto... sadly, 9yrs later.

[@tryhardjak]

@@williambarney2874 ditto..... sadly, 9 days later.

[@themetalhammer9406]

Hands down the best live version of this song.

[@MarkFerrasci]

Yep I was there. He kicked ass! Specially loved it when he went down into the crowed and went towards the back row. Gave the fans that didn't have the chance to be right up front a great little in there face jam. Getting close and personal with his fans. Showed lots of class.. Good Stuff!

[@jsims2985]

A lot people were left searching for their faces after this show. Well done fellas!

[@Dor_Cohen1]

Big soul, big heart in order to play like that! ❤️

[@thereallbking]

so glad that guitar is over 18.....

[@PROFBOTULISM]

yawnnnn

[@JimMac84]

These guys compliment eachother very well. Phillip is a beast.

[@danb2140]

Only the best guitar player on the scene and barely any body realizes It!!!!

[@edwardregemann9410]

Wow! This guy is ace!

[@saigonKT]

Philip is sick... as in very good. LOL.

[@dirn63]

Just saw him for 1st time at Dallas Guitar Festival past weekend. He is incredibly talented. Can hear the passion in his playing. I am sorry it took me so long to finally get to hear him. He put on a great set. I plan on getting all his recordings.

[@Dreyno]

I come back to this every few months. Great touch and dynamics and never goes off into a indulgent wankfest like so many technically great guitarists. The tone is epic and that Strat has a baseball bat for a neck.

[@FeeBD]

Wow Thanks Philip for putting Aberystwyth on the international scene :) I live & work there and I love the place. Come back and visit sometime :) Good song. Virgil McMahon from Virgil and the Accelerators directed me here.

[@ThePurplejaybird77]

Man this was such a awesome show, im the guy standing in the white sweater to philip's right. Philip is god!!!!! What a show this was, one of the best ive seen thus far.

[@joshmuz9018]

I still remember the stench of your farts from that night buddy

[@FindNewIndieMusic]

I've seen Philip Sayce play live years ago with Jeff Healey and he IS that crazy talented! You know that you're in the presence of GREATness. He's got a nice soulful rock voice, too.

[@migueelb]

This guy is just fucking amazing! He plays with so much passion!

[@kubr1ck36]

The dude is an absolute MONSTER

[@saigonKT]

I agree. he gives a guitar a real work out..just like Gary Moore with his Les Paul.

[@davibaldrani]

It's been a long time since I've seen something really amazing

[@DirkjeA]

Three years later this song still sweeps me of my feet......

[@tftimboe]

How is this not at a Million views😯

[@ckjjclan]

I mean "Fu#@$!K Yeah!!!" doesn't even begin to describe what I just saw and listened to! My goodness! Pure gold!

[@jedezign1]

This was such a great show. Philip jammed his ass off!!!!!!

[@tele100]

Wow! I do not know what else to say.

[@byronbeltran8479]

sounds like Old Love from Clapton, really awesome tone!!!

[@mentosz9609]

This is true

[@nortonscarton]

WOW!!!!!!!!

[@joaopedrobrandao]

Unbeliavable!

[@alejandrolissi296]

Maestro! The blues never die!

[@louisantoine9576]

I think the english word I'm trying to say is SOULFUL. I cry every time I listen to your playing

[@robertwinslade3104]

Don't compare two greats. They are both awesome and deserve to be recognised as such.

[@KleyDeJong]

I love your music Philip.

[@AirCobb]

Whoa...blerging awesome.

[@swordsdiagnostic]

Philip Sayce -- beautifully , pasion with love

[@countroshculla]

Holy crap! That was magical.

[@neaituppi7306]

The chords he does are so melodic and harmonic, it just makes the solo parts more powerful.

[@neaituppi7306]

I actually was choked up by the end of it.

[@creativemees]

Best thing happen to me in 2012/2013. Knowing Sayce music

[@clcartlidge]

To this day

[@Satyrblues]

PHILIP RULES !

[@Mbregs28]

"This changes everything" - Guitar cable sales people watching this video.

[@HeltonMoura]

Monstro! Sayce + Gales + Kotzen: o trio perfeito!

[@jAug94]

YES

[@mitchie2267]

Would be amazing

[@VodkaSelekta]

I think it would be too much really. Most of these guys shine in a three/four piece. It would be killer for a show/tour though.

[@LucDiGiuseppe]

What a MONSTER player

[@saigonKT]

Ditto!

[@singleplayer75]

Both Jimi and SRV would eat from the same plate while watching this...MONSTROUS

[@Jamesyates2609]

What an unreal player. How inspiring for a player like myself thanks

[@thedonrizzguitar]

Hands down one of the best live performances i’ve ever seen 🏆

[@misignal]

Good music like this makes me happy

[@kayandyaysoshy]

YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Chiefske]

This is my favorite guitar solo I’ve seen so far. And I’ve seen loads. His tone is so crazy good.

[@Romulus980]

He is definitely a hidden serious talent.....

[@massegrande]

Simply awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@eduardocarrizo9307]

This is the only guy. I've heard play in this direction with such power and emotion. It is uncommon for me that this type of music brings tears to my eyes, but it did. Absolutely Incredible.

[@WetKindOfBlues]

Love!!!

[@Trommelmann1]

Does anybody have some words about this awesome drummer?

[@AntonyKein]

Simply a m a z i n g !!!!!!!!!

[@narisarasgroove2625]

Damn!! That hit the spot. New name to me but I'll be back for more

Philip is definetly my new hero, this is really really good :)

[@JonLuv]

That was insane

[@DiegoManning]

When this guy is going to play at Crossroads? Hey Clapton, make it happen!

[@DirkjeA]

This live version is even better than the studio version I have on my IPod. Oh my, does he knows how to touch my very soul ...........

[@KuppaKwafee]

That’s what I hope I sound like when I’m rocking my family out. 😂

[@timarnold1024]

Brilliant how a song with no lyrics can bring out such emotion!!

That's how you pour soul into the guitar

[@TommyBaldwin]

I mean this is just unbelievable

This guy, Eric Johnson, Richie Kotzen and Tosin Abasi are my favourite players.

[@hosoiarchives4858]

Amazing tones

[@johnb4024]

Talk about putting yourself into a performance. Wow!

[@eugeniosiciliano7776]

This man is actually the best blues guitarist in the world... SRV is back!

[@saigonKT]

and Hendrix 2. Lol.. we can't distinguish between the two the way Philip is playing.

[@JonMartins]

Oh Gosh! This made my day! Sweeet!

[@douglee6731]

Where Jimi meets SRV..i think Philip is too much underrated..

[@elmuan]

Holy Smokes!

[@IvoRaptor]

Hammond melts to guitar bend.... Monster!!!

[@bcummings2187]

I've seen a bunch ......and quite simply.....he is the closest player....so far ....you will ever see that gets that close to SRV ......period.

[@Sneakypeanut657]

nah he leaves srv way behind

[@brandonterzic]

Very different player than SRV to my ears.

[@AdamLeeGuitarist]

Good Lord! There is an upward climb for a musician, where he must figure out the know-how of his instrument, to the point where technicality is no longer a barrier for expression. Philip is born there already, which is why you don't hear an instrument being played! You are literally listening to the man's soul! Just incredible! I'm mind-blown. As a confessed fussy listener, not only can't I fault this performance, but I can't believe I'm hearing it! Time to replay this video again! Ahhh SO GOOD!

[@carpegiane1504]

Old Love - Eric Clapton inspiration

[@josusen]

Loved this song since the first time I heard it! Wish I could play a little bit more of it!

[@huwrobertsmusic]

I'm from Aberystwyth. So cool that he was born here, it's a really bland little seaside town in all honesty yet kinda inspiring that someone like Philip went on to better things (although the fact that his parents moved to Canada probably benefited him in the long run). Cool track.

[@MichaelKahrs]

Hammond on a Hammond! Great tone, Philip.

[@Mattychop]

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD.....

[@andymelendez9757]

That is just scary good!
