[@fusspot57]

Worked with Guthrie many times (as a sound engineer) in the 90's. A lovely, gentle and thoroughly talented man

[@okiekristy]

Your description of Guthrie is correct. He's a beautiful soul.

[@EnigmaEuslam]

Bought him a beer after a show and talked with him for almost an hour. He is indeed a kind and brilliant man, and far more generous with his time than a player of his caliber (the highest) needs to be.

[@cesarbravo822]

Guthrie should get a side gig narrating audio books!

[@doebuus6127]

That's exactly what i thought. He's got a beautiful voice

[@robertboyle5370]

Or opening for ian anderson

[@ernestokimtongwerling7207]

Falta feeling

[@rhodigian]

He can totally do a concept album narrating a story, and playing with his band... He comes from Oxford University, when Oxford University was a little more serious, now ... they discard Homer and Virgil from their classic literature course... www.thearticle.com/why-oxford-dons-who-want-to-downgrade-homer-and-virgil-are-deluded

[@jasonjasniewski5925]

I could listen to GG talk all day! In addition to being a brilliant musician he is quite an articulate and funny chap!

[@DoodlezMusic]

Dude has an english degree!

[@areyouavinalaff]

he knows how to turn an intelligent phrase in his own way, be it in english or music.

[@jacknicholson5794]

@@areyouavinalaff "I became an unconscious person". The way he says it you'd think there's some renown sect of people that are well known for their lack of conciousness and he had briefly joined their ranks. When in reality, he just knocked himself out. His way sounds better.

[@jackmills5071]

@@jorgen3662 the guitarist in the video has the initials GG.

[@EpicJonT]

Close your eyes, it’s Simon Pegg.

[@raymondleemeadows4969]

It's like Zappa, Rush and Weather Report all at once.

[@fattwat1]

And a bit of king crimson as well

[@brianmcgonigal229]

With a pinch of Jeff Beck in there

[@powerpooch2000]

And a little dash we're talking a pinch of justin bieber

[@BuxWV149]

Don't forget Eric Johnson.

[@chongyvevo]

Yeah, the Zappa comes from GG, the Rush comes from MM and the Weather Report comes from BB

[@dcpmusic77]

All three of these guys would be prime candidates for Zappa's band if Frank were still alive.

Please my youtiub chanal sabkraib brother

[@winstonsmith8240]

Such a big sound for a three piece. When all three musicians are brilliant.

[@arcuscerebellumus8797]

this song sounds like a neverending intro too an amazing groove that never comes...

[@sumitpatil4229]

@3:09 Just when you're expecting that riff ...The Music that follows is like a background Music to a Travel vlog to fun beaches and resorts of an island 😅

[@arcuscerebellumus8797]

@@sumitpatil4229 now that I think of it, this sort of feeling might have been the point. As if the hit on the head erased that riff, but it still lingers on the edge of memory.

[@sumitpatil4229]

@@arcuscerebellumus8797 haha true. Also, I was thinking.. it may be trying to convey feelings of intense pain and anger at oneself of having gotten into such a stupid accident with that angry riffage. While the soothing travel vlog music depicted sleep and relaxation when the painkiller kicked in !

[@Elemy69]

That's basically the only thing I would have to say about the Aristocrats. They build tension, but the release never comes and kind of leaves you frustrated

[@TrippyTheShroom]

@@Elemy69 Not with every song, but often yea. Kentucky Meat Shower has an amazing build up and pop. Flatlands as well, in my opinion. Alot of their songs come off as just jams between 3 amazing musicians.

[@betteroffdeadd]

The bass solo is amazing. I come back to listen to this part again and again. Guthrie is the best, no need to repeat it.

[@Metapuff1]

3:22 this is the most insane fill I've ever heard

[@zachpeacock1709]

Yea...that was sick...

[@bicycleutopia]

they have this powerful, kind of very angular, energized sometimes even aggressive/angry moments...and then they flow into these moments of lilting, kinda bucolic strolling...and back and forth it goes in so many of their compositions. they are just incredible. im not a musician of any kind...so i have no access to a technical musical vocabulary, but they are music masters, to be sure. what an emotional range!

[@charlieel36]

bicycleutopia I am a musician and I tell you I couldn’t have said it better ,greatest band in the world ,it’s actually somewhat comforting to hear someone who’s not a musician in anyway say exactly how I feel about this band and music in general,they even say at there shows they expect most of the fans to be musicians lol

[@rbagel55]

bicucleutopia you had a good explanation of this band's music..It is a bit complex, but every good instrumental song should have a bit of complexity to it, makes it more interesting. It makes up for lack of vocals.

[@cygnusx-7440]

Well stated, bicycleutopia! As a musician, I'm discovering The Aristocrats for the FIRST time tonight. So I'm embarrassed and euphoric at the same time!

[@sandaruguitar9076]

Please my youtiub chanal sabkraib brother

[@BenMcrea61]

This song and indeed the entire album should be listened to on a rooftop bar of a Bangkok hotel after a few bottles of Singha...

[@theonlyredspecial]

Ben McCrea the first time I read your post I thought you said the entire album should be thrown off the roof. Phew !

[@flapjackson6077]

The drummer is freeking killing it!

[@dennishuffman785]

"It's funny to laugh at people that have serious head injuries".

[@perthDev]

that shit was crazy. They need to make it longer. unbelievably good.

[@danilomarinobata9902]

Incredible bass solo. Beller blows my head.

[@Ghaleb2142]

I just realized the drummer was in Necrophagist, so awesome.

[@Creed_fan_69]

Hell yeah!

[@Barrelsmoke]

I broke my leg, but, I didn't do anything but cry. I wish the result was a killer jam!

[@Nijoto]

These cats are my new favorite band. Rhythmically, harmonically, and melodically they have so much control and creativity. Their sound is so diverse and fresh. Love it!

[@colinohare]

Their sense of timing is awesome.

[@joaodanieldemello2137]

"Guthrie suffers for your music pleasure"

[@Apartekarate]

Great! Now I'm gonna hum that tune for the rest of the day...

[@AlanBetzScott]

Guthrie seems to be the new Zappa with a touch of Holdsworth. I can say that is about the utmost compliment I could possibly fabricate.

[@MetalOfAllOwns]

Yea Holdsworth was on a whole other level. Gutherie is definetly a monster in his own style.

[@marcelobecerra5083]

rara vez hay una feliz coincidencia de un super trio de talentosos, dedicados a hacer un música tan compleja, pero a la vez divertida. Solo The Aristocrats podrían hacerlo 🖐️ gracias 🎶👏

[@andylong7759]

I think that Guthrie has a slight Zappa vibe.

[@dylanswint1795]

+Andy Long oh for sure! I love it

[@ridwanpangestu7607]

That guy has a slight everybody’s vibe

[@noquarter9700]

There's a zappa lick from Inca Road's live version

[@porcaro4ever]

Fitting since Brian looks like Zappa!

[@6stringstorulethemall967]

If Zappa was nice lol

[@Rohdo]

5:11 Guthrie wraps his thumb underneath the fretboard to embellish the chord. Wow.

[@jacobk4n3]

That’s illegal in most states.

[@diamondmidnightgardener]

that drummer is fucking amazing

[@briandennehy6380]

Thanks so much for the upload man, Guthries tone and solo are out of this world

[@pacovalencia6204]

One band that it's possible to ear the bass sound ty God!!

[@johncourtright1632]

Massive talent! If you get a chance to see these guys live, do it! One of the best concerts I've ever been to!

[@johnorhan121]

And yet another masterpiece. The sheer depth of his ability seems to have no limit!! Wish he did one of those tute videos.

[@thenewmedic]

Love prog with the vintagey guitar and bass tones. Somehow much more tolerable than super high gain modern distortion sounds. These guys also seem to know how to have fun too.

[@danpage1301]

What a joyful masterpiece

This is a spontaneous TED TALK before the song. This is great.

[@charlieel36]

The only comment I can make is that this is the absolute greatest band that ever existed

[@tonewalljaxon7062]

sounds like 1970's Zappa without ruth and george.

[@Xzonza1]

They're apparently 70's Rush for the 21st century with a Captain Beefheart garnish, good stuff.

[@HenryChinaski614]

Always excellent!

[@neilmurphy7594]

Holy shit that tone 6:02

[@memalley]

[@lisamlisak]

great guitar tone and dynamic..

keep doing this mr Govan

[@raphaelfranco9438]

That guitar tone is better than the album version, imo.

[@francismcalister7811]

Judging by the song title I would have expected some Necrophagist

[@tyrbaldur5317]

Longest album wait time ever.

[@freak1310c]

I think there's a song called gaping head wound by them. On one of their TWO albums.

[@freak1310c]

Sorry, i was thinking about Stabwound.

[@arnaudnoar3345]

As good as mad! Thx!!

If this guitar thing doesn't work out for Guthrie, he definitely has a future in narrating audio books.

[@sriyansh1729]

Maybe both😆

Its very Zappa inspired!! Very cool!

[@nicolascamara9608]

beautiful moment 5:53 T.T

[@michaelanthony9068]

I’m concerned for the human race because of the number of people that laughed during Guthrie’s head injury story. But then my faith in the future is reaffirmed by this artistry. Especially Brien’s solo!

[@AlfOfAllTrades]

I like this tune a whole lot more when I am drunk... is that a good thing?´

[@shorty6136]

Nah, your just an alcoholic.

[@jantonioguher8428]

De dónde salieron estos extraterrestres! Son unos son unos ilógicos asombrosos!

[@lachlanmoir79]

One of those rare pieces where a blistering solo actually diminishes from the performance. That was a nice tune with an interesting chord progression. Excellent bass too. Sometimes less is more imho.
