I think Steve Howe is amazing, I also feel he is underrated as a guitarist. Should be in the top 5 or at least top 10. "MOOD FOR A DAY" is another great one by him.

Saw them half a dozen times, NEVER disappointed!! So glad to be a teenager young adult in those days!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️RIPChris Squire, one of the best bassist!

He’s self-taught, Hari. Not sure how you learn all of those different styles on your own, or even through formal training, but he’s been producing diamonds for 50+ years. As others have noted, Mood for a Day should be on your list.

Oh yeah! I have been to many Yes concerts, and Steve Howe's masterclass-level guitar playing was among the greats. This submission was a fine choice and gift for me. Steve playing an acoustic version of Clap is something I had never seen until now. Very well done, Rev. and Harri.

Steve used to do one man show for members of the Steve Howe Appreciation Society, of which I was a member. Very small venue, church hall so no more than fifty/sixty people. Magic.

Always the king of guitars as far as I'm concerned. I've been listening to him since 1974. The guitar has changed a lot over the years with people doing hammer-ons and tapping but he's still the old-fashioned classical guitarist that beats them all.

Generally referred to as hybrid picking. Early exemplars are Chet Atkins (who was a huge influence on Steve Howe) and Jerry Reed, who played (Swinging Little) Man, later covered by Elvis.

@patrickmcevoy5080 2 ай бұрын

Steve Howe was the first Rock guitarist to really popularize the Chet Atkins style of hybrid pick/fingerpicking that he uses here. He uses it in most of his fingerpicking, in fact. (You can see Alex Lifeson from Rush use the same style sometimes, too.) It's very useful, as you can do lead lines with the pick and quickly switch to fingerpicking without having to drop the pick, and it also makes your bass lines (where the pick is used) particularly punchy. Howe was an amazing guitarist with a huge range of influences and styles. Surprisingly, he's not often remembered on "greatest guitarists" lists these days, but at the time, there was no one better.

I think Howe won best overall guitarist for several years in a row in Guitar Player magazine in the 70's, then he was retired from the category to give someone else a chance. This is partially why. He could play this kind of old time jazz rag timey stuff, nice classical (Mood for a Day), then do ripping electrical stuff too. And since he was a great writer too, he know how to make it all musical, not just flashy guitar. Really great player, really great musician. Live Yessongs is one of my favorites, even though it's not engineered well.

Clap is a great solo song from The Yes Album, but it was his solo from the Fragile album, "Mood For A Day" that has inspired may people to pick up the acoustic guitar, so they can learn to play it. Both songs are classic solos by Howe, and Clap is awesome-inspiring, especially this live version, but I prefer Mood For A Day, Harri. ❤✌

He is Travis Picking with a plectrum. Search Merl Travis This is the song that shuts down any "I Can Play Anything" guitarist. Saw him play it 20+ times over the past 45 years. It still blows me away. He wrote it in his mid 20's, think of that.

Back in the 1980's (I think) Steve Howe made a sort of instructional video, which shows close up views of both his right, and left hands, while playing The Clap. If you really want to see how he plays it, check it out, here on KZbin.

The acoustic part is called ragtime guitar. Pretty common (except amongst rock musicians).

Steve Howe is amazing! If you liked that you should check out Tommy Emmanuel.

@springertube 2 ай бұрын

Welcome to the acoustic guitar world, Harri! I like Howe, but I was going to say as acoustic masters definitely Tommy Emmanuel and bluegrassers others have also mentioned, young Billy Strings, but also also Molly Tuttle and vet 'grasser virtuosos Bryan Sutton, Toni Rice (RIP), Norman Blake, Mark O'Connor and Dan Tyminski (the latter Wherefore Art Thou picker/crooner and formerly of Alison Krauss & Union Station), Michael Hedges (RIP), gypsy artist (but anything really) Joscho Stephan, classic-legacy gypsy player Django Reinhardt (RIP), always old schooler virtuosos Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Leo Kottke, Doyle Dykes, 80s-90s steel fingerstylists Phil Keaggy and 80s-90s "new age" Alex De Grassi and Will Ackerman, nylon/classical pop/jazz fingerstylers Charlie Byrd, Earl Klugh. Richard Smith, John Knowles, Muriel Anderson, Peter White, a whole bunch of Bossa Nova including Byrd again (American), and Brazilians Antonio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto, Luiz Bonfá, Laurindo Almeida, Baden Powell, and many others (of all genres). As for your guitar / strings, at least for starters, assuming yours is a steel string acoustic, if you find the strings to be a bit too much for now, try silk & steel types. You lose some tone, volume and maybe some longevity versus the usual phosphor bronze or 80/20, but that may not be as important at this learning stage. The S&S type generally is of less tension and easier on the fingers. They will spoil you for feel but will not sound as full or nuanced. If sticking with the regular, bronze-type strings, make sure they are light gauge - something on the order of .012 to .053. Medium 13s on up may be a bit much for you at this stage. Depending on your guitar type, the heavier gauges add tone and volume, but as suggested are more difficult to play and your guitar may not call or even be spec'd for them anyway. Second tip - and one even more seasoned players including yours truly sometimes could use as a reminder, don't press or squeeze too hard - you're not trying to choke it! If you are finding you have to consistently press too hard, then your guitar may need an adjustment tune up and/or the lighter strings. But right now, your difficulty may primarily be due to the unfamiliarity of it all. Just as a personal thing but, I would never go extra light on an acoustic - yes, easier yet, but too much loss of the good stuff. Suck it up and toughen up at least with the lights! Edit: lots to choose from out there, but as a sampling of more great picking, check out the videos of Tommy Emmanuel and Gabrielle Quevedo as she takes on "his" Classical Gas, Tommy again with Molly Tuttle, and great Brit jazzer Martin Taylor and Bryan Sutton.

It's classical mixed with ragtime. I've been a Yes fan since 1979. Steve Howe is a virtuoso, he's almost as talented as Niki Minaj.

@Able-Man 2 ай бұрын

Thanks, Harri... Yeah, it's pretty rare to see someone use both a pick AND their fingers, all at the same time; but, I'm quite sure I've seen it before. I'm thinking that it may have been Roy Clark who I'd seen "do like that", but, I can't remember any particular song... Bear in mind, that Roy plays a variety of stringed instruments, one of them being the banjo; so, THAT always involves individual "finger picking work" when done well... I'm pretty sure that I've seen him get going with the 6-string guitar alternating between the pick and the leftover 3 fingers.

Nice choice. The talent in this line-up was out-pouring. Don't overlook guitarist Frank Marino (and Mahogany Rush): ''Dragonfly'' being a good introduction. Good material on Woyaya album by Osibisa. Great reacts, I like the seriousness put into the listening.

@Blue-qr7qe 2 ай бұрын

Not like your blue flat pick, Harri, a thumb pick. Wrapped round the last joint of the thumb like a ring and then the ring overlaps, the end extending out flattened like a regular pick. A flat pick would need to be held between the thumb and forefinger which would rule out the use of that finger for picking.

@genestippell1833 Ай бұрын

If you like this then checkout leo kottke (as mentioned in other comments),and look up the "certified" chet atkins pickers such as tommy Emanuel, thom bresh (merle travis son) and others whos names escape me. These guys are sooooo good i could practice 100 years and not even come close to these players.
