It makes me sad to think of the pure talent this world was robbed of when Jason came down with ALS.....truly a musical genius. Nita did him proud....she absolutely rips her version of Perpetual Burn. Two shred gods!

As a metalhead I have known about Jason for years, but since his mucis isnt really my taste I never knew much about him other than that he is a big name amongst guitars. So when I read an interview with him in a Swedish metal magazine I found out what he suffers from and I must say that a guy who can only comunicate with his eyes and still write an album... thats a legend.

Jason is one of the best guitar players I have ever seen in my life and he seems like such a nice guy. I have a tremendous amount of respect for him. Not just for what he has contributed musically to he world but also the absolute rarity of fighting ALS to the point most others would have given up. Everyone who ever touches a guitar should have at least one Jason Becker piece they choose to learn. It almost instantly makes you a better guitar player.

Not sure if you've heard it but Jason just released an album called "Triumphant Hearts." He still creates music using only his eyes. It's a testament to Jason's genius that a man who can no longer speak, move or breathe on his own is still capable of creating music that's beyond the abilities of so many of us who still can play our guitars.

I couldn't care less about most shred guitar stuff, but Perpetual Burn is such a badass composition; it's like someone revived Paganini from the dead, handed him an electric guitar and a Marshall stack and said "here, make something with this." In terms of complex harmony and melody it gets so much closer to the spirit of classical virtuoso style composition than Yngwie ever did.
@georgeaslanidis644

Interesting thought. I love the music of Jason Becker and Malmsteen. In fact, I think Malmsteen's Rising Force and Perpetual Burn are the reference for neoclassical virtuoso guitar music. However, I think "Far beyond the sun" is completely comparable to the song "Perpetual burn" and both remind of Paganini. I really don't want to get into comparing Jason and Yngwie because both are so talented and gifted that doesn't make sense. At that level you just can't say one is better that the other. We also have to remember that Yngwie was a big influence on Jason. Those arpeggios and fast scales maybe where inspired by Malmsteen :)

you`re rigth.. is really far beyond your normal shred composition... its even far beyond ... far beyod the sun lol.. which is an amazing composition... it is of the caliber of a master composer from the times of old... like you just said... Its a shame that Jason almost never mentions how he composed that ... it sees he probably doesnt realize how brutal that song is. and Im not event talking technically but as work of art

He isn't frustrated because he is still making music and the gods of guitar will happily play his work and do it with pride

Coming back and watching this years later and seeing her growth from then til now is amazing, but to know that she was well on her way in making her mark and still questioned herself, it’s humbling. Love how there’s the cuts back to her shredding effortlessly after you hear the doubt in her voice..ah hell, I said I wouldn’t cry before I wrote this…such a feel-good moment

+Dennis T. That system is one he came up with with his parents. They read the only part of his body he can still control, his eyes, and using the method they devise, it's how he communicates everything. There's no other interface that could use.

+Dennis T. - No, actually he moves a mouse pointer with his cheek muscle, if you Google pics of him, you'll see it hanging from his glasses, it's this light scanner that reads his cheek muscle moving . For some reason they can't do it with the eye, but they said now his cheek muscle is going as well as his eye movements which means he will be completely locked in, meaning no way to communicate so right now they are trying to devise ways to read his brain signal which I think they've had some success with.

Let's be real. Meeting someone with such an advanced stage of a debilitating condition as ALS for the first time must be very uncomfortable. Then trying to perform in that mindset is a whole other layer of discomfort and pressure. Nita did a great job and I'm sure Jason was all the more flattered that he was still influencing other guitarists. Such a cool video.

I think it is so cool David Lee Roth did so much for him when he first became ill. He never talked about it, didnt brag, just helped him with no need for media or praise. People think he just has a big ego, but that is just what you see on stage.

I work in the music industry so I usually don't fan girl when I meet successful / famous musicians, but I would be a MESS if I was meeting Jason Becker. He was such a huge inspiration to my guitar playing and i've always found his story so captivating. The fact that he still composes music and has such a positive outlook on life is fucking badass. Crazy that he hasn't played a guitar in 30 years but still has such a massive impact on the world.
