[@maherdleikan4684]

What a great honor for two legends to be together

[@itsmyguitar]

I'm only about a third of the way through this and it is a really, really great interview. Finally got through the whole thing. What a journey. And more to go. Great stuff.

[@OlemirCandido]

GH is my favorite guitar player also. Great video!!! Thank you so much.

[@centaurus5676]

Two of the most talented and down to earth people i have seen in one video. Brilliant!

[@chickensemble]

This is a real treat, thank you both.

[@scirasco1]

as a hardcore fan of greg ,the slide vibrato came the way he described it but he forgot to say that he remembered seeing a lynch video/dokken where george was doin it ,he didnt steal it from him but the seeing the movement inspired him:)

[@guitagious9464]

Wow, I learned so much from Greg in this interview - it was almost more of a "lesson" than an "interview"! Very cool!

[@Ben-ni8ef]

Wow, this is great! Going to have to find an evening to watch this properly

[@billstoye3628]

What a great interview. so interesting to hear Steve's detailed learning curve, and his honest and organic take on his craft and the what he wants to convey/create. Much good information, There is a lot to be had for aspiring players!

[@ANMGRACEPINKY]

Salute to you sir

"Fun first, technique second"

[@therealandrecorbin4050]

In the late 80s I listened to one of his shrapnel albums almost everyday, super slippery style, excellent technique and note selection. The guy is great.

[@gorgar6657]

wow what a scoop well done!

[@markslist1542]

A very valuable interview. Thanks to the both of you.

[@wpmiller6387]

[@jemubk]

Very cool and at the same time very modest person!!! Adore!!!

[@scottsnet]

[@floridapopulist]

[@UkeofCarl]

[@cedricbourgeois5134]

[@mrtonytyler]

Greg is too much just a super player and has got his own thing that's all his own,I like there's always a solution

[@roba1899]

Guthrie Govan's Erotic Cakes is legendary but Greg Howe is SUCH a prolific composer, SO melodic and nuanced with his fast runs, it's almost not to be believed. Wheelhouse and Soundproof are PROOF that Greg's composing skills are NOT slowing down. Greg is my favorite player of all time. Hands down.

[@roba1899]

Howe's personality on the guitar is so unique and musical, I can see why Guthrie couldn't 'cop it' .. all praise to Sir Govan as he really is my second favorite player and he is (I think) slightly more technical than Howe, Greg's composition trumps any level of technicality. Mattias IA Eklundh is a technical god but his music is grating and clinical .. Greg is perfectly musical like ALL of the time. I simply can't wait for his new album.

[@roba1899]

DEREK TRUCKS .. I said it just before he found out because I remember the video! Derek plays SO musically and with a Blues slide style .. it's ALL note choice. You guys might love the album Lifeboat by Jimmy Herring. That whole album is like a Greg Howe Fusion very musical album ..

[@roba1899]

He doesn't want to limit himself to the guitar shapes on the fretboard so he puts it down to think solely of the music that needs to be played .. his imagination is in control. This is brilliant.

[@roba1899]

"Where's that child-like spirit?" .. BRILLIANT again.

[@roba1899]

Another thing I just realized is that my favorite color is copper/burnt orange .. which he also seems to prefer.

[@williamure6840]

Greg you are such an intelligent cool spirt

[@matheusbertoldi7916]

Yo

[@Audiomarkj]

Dude. Cut the cord on the 100 word questions. The fanboy is cool but can be can be a distraction to the viewer. Nothing wrong with writing the questions down first. Just trying to help.

[@lyresmyth]

Hey brah... how's that ad revenue going? Knowing greg personally I wanted to watch this but over 20 ads inside of an hour??? I know I'll never be watching anything from this channel.

"I don't design songs for the 8 guitarists in the front row, but their girlfriends to feel something." lol

[@dumashernandez5125]

Hey man have you bought any Lick n Riff courses? I have two courses myself and was wondering if you would like to trade?

[@joseywales7463]

Not enough ads. Bro come on. Can't you do an ad every 30 secs at least? Lame. I came for the ads. Left for the shit interview.

[@markblue5375]

Interviewer absolutely irritating and horrible.
