Vince Gill is truly amazing with his up-tempo country picking, but he is equally impressive with his slower tunes -- Look at Us, Go Rest High, and the unbelievable live duet with Carrie Underwood on How Great Thou Art, for examples. I wish I had the ability to be only one hundredth as expressive as Vince is in his playing! And you're right -- he shames most rock players, myself included!

I remember him telling them, that you must always have the appropriate guitar for the gig. Every hall is different and so are guitars. He also said, never out play the band; when it your turn, step-up and let it go. Then step back and let band do what they do.

Vince is one of those rare combos of amazing vocalist and amazing guiratists. He just came off this tour with the Eagles. I heard him sing "Take it to the Limit" and he hit the high notes Randy Meisner used to hate to sing live perfectly. His solo had a lot of pedal steel licks in it where you push the 2nd up to the 3rd and passing 4th sus as you move between chord changes. He does them soo quickly and smoothly it really separates the men from the boys. My father-in-law used to have a little country band that I would sit in with when he was in the area. One of the many instruments he played was the fiddle. He was getting ready to play a Bob Wills tune and a woman came up and said, "Oh you play the violin also?" He said, "No, this is a fiddle. In country music we call them fiddles." "What's the difference?" she asked. "If you play the violin you carry it around in a case." he said. "If you play the fiddle you carry it aroud in a flour sack."

Marshall - so right. Vince Gill has been a go-to replacement singer for bands pretty much all his life, meaning his was sought after for that gorgeous tenor. He replaced the original singer of Pure Pairie League and got them back on the charts and has subbed for other bands in need. He's just THAT good. What I love about him the most is is amazing gift as a harmony singer and the way he can change his phrasing to match the lead singer the way say, John Starling can do. If you want to hear him truly shine, listen to him sing "Dark as a Dungeon" with The Chieftains on one of their early Country-Irish fusion CDs. You'd swear that this Merle Travis song was a traditional Irish melody. he also sang Bard of Armagh/Streets of Laredo (same tune) with the Chieftains on the CD soundtrack of the Long Journey Home. I almost wish Vince Gill would use that jeweled Irish tenor of his on an ENTIRE CD with the Chieftains. Of course, his guitar playing is whiz-bang brilliant. So many techniques!

Fil, so glad you added Vince Gill. He's been one of my favorites for decades. He's one of the best pickers ever, and if that's not perfect pitch, I don't know what is. No wonder the Eagles asked him to join the band after Glenn's untimely passing. I said it forever that he's money in the bank.

Hey buddy, great review again Fil. Since you are loving the country guys, (much respect for that), may I suggest you check out James Burton and Brad Paisley. You won't be disappointed. Think it's so cool that you find guitar players, both rock/blues and country, you find them all appealing. Makes you appreciate what the instrument the guitar is, and giving props to those who have mastered it. Great job Fil. Love the channel

Great suggestion, Daniel. It reminded me that about 10 years ago I saw Vince Gill play guitar for James Taylor at the famous Tanglewood Performing Arts Center in Lenox, MA. For some strange reason, which I never found out why this was happening, Vince was playing a Les Paul burst that belonged to Duane Allman. I think it was on loan from the Duane Allman estate. During some of his many solos he ripped that night, he would throw in just beautiful snippets of Duane Allman riffs and solos into famous James Taylor songs. Whenever he did that, the crowd went completely fucking nuts. James Taylor seemed to get a big kick out of it. Listen, Vince Gill is the real deal. I don't care what style of guitar folks think is the ultimate proving ground for virtuosity, Vince Gill is a super badass guitar player, plus he is an amazing vocalist. There's no denying that he is one of the most talented musicians anyone will ever come across.
