Paul Gilbert telling the stories and randomly playing is one of the most entertaining things that I could watch all day long.
Totally agree man, he's such an interesting guy with an insane amount of talent. On a side note, great to see you over here :D My Cheaa keyring is proudly attached to my bike key haha!
bakerXderek what the fuck X, get back to commenting on motovlogg videos, you are not supposed to be here
Cheah! Didnt expect to see you here
bakerXderek Cheah!
Ayyy CHEAH!!!
No ego , brilliant dude, super smart. LEGEND
i know right the guy is like enlightened
@steve k. see I don't think vai sucks, I think he's redundant, flashy, and yes egomaniac. Leave em for the ego convention lead by Gene Simmons with a star guest John Lennon
steve k. If your goal was to make me laugh with that one then you did a damn fine job my friend. Peace lollll
Really
The secret to being as good as Paul Gilbert is just two simple things:
1) Having every song ever written playing simultaneously in your head and being able to pick out the part you want and instantly transcribe it to guitar.
2) Level 99 happiness and enthusiasm.
Easy peasy.
Legit why I look up to Paul. He is like a human jukebox and can pick out any part of any song.
Straight up fact; Why Paul is as good as he is, is directly because of the support he got from his parents. His father built his amps and guitars, his name is George. George built a lot of amps for local guys. I have one. His Dad took him to the Randy Rhodes seminar at a local guitar shop, 2 months before he died. Ozzy heard about him, I assume through Randy. George also had sent a cassette of Paul to Mike Varney the year before and Mike called him Randy Rhodes Jr. Ozzy got Pauls contact info from Mike and called the Gilbert residence, saying he wanted to hire Paul when he was 16 and luckily George said absolutely not he's too young. And that probably saved Paul's career and maybe his life, LOL. Paul was so mad about that but his Dad sent him out to that school instead and well, the rest is history. But his parents were the reason he became what he is.
Don't know if there is anyone that is good as him alive. Michael Schenker of course... .
Don't forget having a pinky that's as long as your index finger.
@@craigharrison5406 Lol ya that too.
Capt looked nervous every time Paul played a Zep riff. He's like.."Copyright!!!" ;)
@The-Art-of-Guitar he kind of looks down all sheepish like "oh shit, he's playing Zeppelin! stop please stop." haha
Mike, just watched your video about
The Osmonds…HOLY SHIT!! 😳😳
Fuckin ROCKS!!
love your vidoes man.... real S tier stuff
Zep wasn’t worried about copyright, why would Cap?
@Tylergreen
Nice burn.
"Not everybody has to like what I like." -- Paul Gilbert. Let that sink in, internets.
severalpaperclips what does that sink want now
@@leostevanovic5205 You just won. Everything.
@@leostevanovic5205 it wants in. Open the door.
Tell that to SJW's
hearing Paul say he remembers thinking bar chords felt impossible is really motivating to me
chris F around the age of 10, not 20 like me...oh well
keep at it bro, everyone has been there..you'll be shredding before you know it
Christ, I remember it being impossible too. If you’ve not gotten there yet, you can most certainly do it!
Bar chords wre impossible for me, then I got a new guitar and *magic*. Turns out they're really hard for a child to play on a cheap full-size classical guitar with insanely high action. Even now I struggle to play some on that particular guitar :D
“Everything was working perfectly, I couldn’t be happier... so I changed everything”
If that doesn’t represent 99% of guitarists, I don’t know what does.
Jake Dowen I'm having a similar crisis this very morning!
Arranging my few pedals now ! I still sound like shit !
Maybe it's about learning and trying new things (not standing still)
so so so true ! lol
Yeah us guitarist can't leave good enough alone.
Paul Gilbert is basically a metal Jeff Goldblum. Just oozing sauce with every lick.
Kazuya Good to see a fellow Tekken player here
Ik I just comment he sounds like goldblum lol.so not just me.
He sounds like Goldblum when he talks, but he looks like Kramer when he plays.
Goldblum is the exact same in everything he ever did! Also a sell out turd. Paul has so much more talent and intelligence.
@@wilsondunlap if I close my eyes I hear david letterman's voice clone. only thing missing is letterman's silly laugh
It's amazing how Paul Gilbert is still so excited to play the guitar. A REAL guitar hero 👽
Amazing interview!
Omg Kiko its you're amazing
tesourooo!
Kiko!!!!
Percebo que assisto os vídeos certos quando vejo o Kiko Loureiro em pessoa comentando kkkk
Not as amazing as you
His love for the instrument is infectious. The dude simply cannot stop himself from playing. It’s great.
17:44 "I wanna be good enough on my instrument where any idea that I get, I'm able to bring to reality" THIS is what I'm striving for, I'm sure many other musicians feel this way too
Paul Gilbert is magical. He's so insanely skilled yet humble and there's a child-like passion to him when he talks about music.
He's also amazingly articulate with what he wants to convey in his teachings and his playing. He's got a bluesman's soul, a popstar's heart and the skill of a virtuoso. He's the 80s equivalent of John Mayer with his unabashed love of pop music offset with monster guitar chops.
TheGuitar Person wym a pop starts heart
@@Qwickv probably because of the plethora of pop songs he can so easily play at whim?
You did not just compare Paul Gilbert to John Mayer. Paul Gilbert is on a different planet than Mayer
hotman718 he did both are amazing guitarists in their own right
@@ebay9302 dafuq?
Holy Shit, the amount of information in this...I feel like I should have paid for it.
you did, you paid attention.
@@timgrim9581 beat me to it by miles but yes, completely ... this is one of the positive things the internet can do to counterpoint the trolls
Best advice was " do it for chuck"
I've tried to watch this all the way through several times and always end up pausing and going to jam. What an inspiration and truly down to earth person. Nothing fake about this guy.
Ha! Same thing happens to me. I think 25-30mins is my record!
Paul would be happy to know that you stop and go play
7:42 Paul trying to play "Barracuda" with only upstrokes just killed me. XD
"When you rock that hard, you don't even need a distortion"
patrick Rai 😂
I like how he's wearing the entire Macdonald's mascot family.
Paul Gilbert is an interviewer's dream. He hardly needs any prompting at all. Just excited to share. Wonderful man. Brilliant musician. Unbelievably gifted guitarist.
"When you rock that hard, you don't even need distortion."
Man... that one was a slap in my face.
"This is back when I couldn't afford to buy a lot of records, I was 6 year old, I don't really have a job yet" HAHAHA made my day!
Paul Gilbert: "Your A chord sounded great..."
Hahah Classic Pablo =)
jajajjajajajajjajajajajajaa
42:17
"Thank you very much".
Paul admits what pretty much every phenomenal musician admits...he’s a major Beatles fan. Thank God for the Fab 4, they inspired an army of great musicians.
This is a true savant. His enthusiasm a thing to behold. Love this guy. Unabashedly and lovably eccentric. An bona fide and authentic original. "I don't have the arms for hard labour." A throw away line. Funny. Beautiful.
I was at the workshop. I was in the front row, right in front of Mr G and ahve to say a massive thanks to Andertons for putting the show on. For 12 quid you got 3 hours of Paul Gilbert, an Ernie Ball goodie bag with a set of strings, an Ernie Ball coaster, an Ernie Ball string winder and a guitar cleaning set and you got your picture taken with the great man afterwards. What a great time and memory..
Holy crap Gilbert has such a riff vocabulary. I guess knowledge is power.
He knows every song every written It's unreal
You should watch this video of a guitar battle with Marty Friedman called something like A-Z Heavy Metal and it’s basically a game where they pick a letter of the alphabet and have to play a riff of a band that starts with that letter (i. e. T = Toto = Africa). It’s so much fun to see how fast they come out with the riff.

By far the best guest on the captain's show. He had a guitar in his hand for the entire hour.
The best quote here is “if I loose my callouses, I loose everything”.
Loose or lose? 😂😂😂😂
Don't think I've ever seen anyone that's so enthusiastic about playing guitar. Love this guy.
Captain meets Jimi Hendrix plz
Robbie Barousse bruh
Robbie Barousse HES FUCKIN DEAD
Brandon Garcia Um No, Captian just made this this, he's plenty alive.
Ramsey Hildebrand Huuuuh GOOGLE AND MY TV HAS FUCKIN LIED TO ME
you just wished Captain to die :D
Watching him has been a pleasure, top 5 in history
Paul sounds like a young David Letterman when he talks!
Omg, I've been racking my brain thinking who he sounds like. But that's it!!!
I caught that too LOL!
lol..brilliant
And a little Howard Stern?
Bahaha!!!
I actually find it super interesting that when he first picked up guitar he used exclusively upstrokes and had to be taught downstrokes
Steven Chabot if you look at frank zappa he seems to prefer up strokes .....strange technique but has a great sound 54
Steven Chabot if you look at frank zappa he seems to prefer up strokes .....strange technique but has a great sound 54
Exclusively upstrokes and he only used the low E string too. :)
He didn't tell the full story though, not sure why. His first guitar teacher was the one who told him that he could only do that.
MrBX5 not true, it's just what Paul remembered bc he was so young
The Captain meets Mattias Eklundh would be seriously fun!
Rob A this needs to happen!
That would be awesome
anytime I hear Mattias talk it instantly becomes my favorite interview
Oh man, we need to make an address or something!
agreed!
Watching this in 2024 and really enjoying it. Paul is a real treasure to the guitar community.
Love how he plays every song he uses as an example. No idea how one man can know so many songs ready to recall at any given moment. Almost as incredible as his playing
Not only is Paul a guitar freakazoid, but he's also one of the most likeable people to have ever lived. Just an energetic, warm and enthusiastic fella. Anyone who doesn't like this guy I don't like. Simple. And like I say, as a player he is otherworldly.
I don’t like anyone who doesn’t like him either. Glad someone said it. If you don’t like him it says this guy is not my kind of guy
I once had the immense pleasure of meeting Paul Gilbert plus Eric Martin, Billy Sheehan, and Pat Torpey after a Mr Big gig at Cambridge Corn Exchange many moons ago. We were heading back to the car park after having a post gig kebab and they were just sitting outside the venue. We got talking and I have to say they were four very normal, self effacing guys. They were far more interested in the five of us than talking about themselves. As you say warm, energetic and very enthusiastic and not an iota of arrogance from any of them. It was a one of those Wayne's World 2 we're not worthy" moments and 20 minutes of my life that I will never forget.
The Capt. Meets Tosin Abasi
You can see the pure, unfiltered passion Paul has for playing the guitar through that glorious guitar face he pulls
"Tennille" went over The Captain's head, lol.
Paul Gilbert always has an infectious child-like enthusiasm for music. You can't watch him without smiling.
18:36 When Paul does "Green Tinted Sixties Mind", that floored me. He plays so fluently. Gosh, some people just have it.
1:26 Something important
2:14 Early musical inspirations
9:29 The next step
13:04 The school
16:45 Preferences
21:08 Discover new things along the way
22:40 As long as it's sometimes between 1964-1984
23:56 Mr.BIG
24:52 Global recognition (Indonesia, Japan, etc)
25:12 It's all about the hair
29:28 Teaching
46:06 Gears
Paul Gilbert is probably the best teacher ever. His humility is on point and he's a special person
Captain!! We need to get Marty Friedman on one of these!! He is such an incredibly unique guitar player!!! It would be a hit!!
Limit3r yes. love marty
Limit3r he started following me on instagram and i shit a brick haha. Thought i would share
Also hes a trip. He speaks so casually with absolutely no fucks to give it's so funny.
What a great guy ,
He is awesome..
Certainly that's how he comes across in interviews. Sadly when I met him, though, he wasn't a nice guy. Quite a surprise (and a disappointment)
test what happened
test I met him at a guitar clinic and I don't think he wasn't nice, just seemed a bit shy
We all have bad days. Perhaps he didn't want to be bothered, and you ran up with a big :O
When your teacher recommends both "Highway to Hell" and "Beethoven's Fifth" for practicing in the same sentence.
Paul Gilbert is one of the most underrated guitarist... and is probably one of the best. He can do all... and the best of all, he knows what is playing. I had the pleasure of meet him, and its one of a kind.
Being 6 year old is not an excuse for not having a job.
Exactly. You either earn your keep, or GTFO
Chinese guy detected
🤣
Damn Libertarian! LOL
Has anyone noticed how Mr Gilbert can't actually talk without playing music at the same time? It just seems to be the way his brain processes language as inextricably entwined with music and guitar. Amazing.
I can’t stop watching this, every time I come back to watch it again it’s as fresh as the 1st time I did
Really
Funny to hear at the 30:00 mark what a bad teacher PG was and how he got fired from classroom teaching. Lol. He is by far one of my favorite youtube teachers. He makes simple and to the point videos, yet manages to teach so much.
Now imagine what happens to a kid like Paul growing up with today's radio....
"Yeah, yeah, yeah..somebody singing about hobbits"..hahahaha...love Paul Gilbert.
Paul Gilbert is so generous in an interview. The more i listen to him, the more i like him ;)
This whole conversation is simply great. You can feel the love for music and the history which brought him to playing figuratively.
There is nothing better than watching an interview for the first time, with someone you've grown up listening to play the guitar and realising he's a nice guy! Respect!!
I am a 34 year old guitarist and singer who more enjoys metal music and newer stuff. I am also a carpenter and the guy I work with is a 57 year old guitarist who enjoys everything from classic rock to old blues and jazz fusion. We both listen to Paul Gilbert at least several times a week, from album beginning to end. We love it. Paul is up on that list of untouchable guitarists who will always be cutting edge. Lucky you Capt. for getting to sit with the man himself.
Paul Gilbert is my literal guitar hero. Coolest dude ever!
31:28 That story about "being bad at something" hit really close to home.
Up to 6th grade I basically had straigt A's in all subjects, my worst subject being sport where I had like a B minus, so when we got to pick a new subject in 7th grade I choose some science based class since I was really into that (and still am), but my main class teacher told my parents that I had to get into a class that was really really hard for me because I was so used to sailing through school without ever havint to learn much for tests.
So they enrolled me into latin-class and that's where I received my first ever D and I was devestated and momentarily didn't want to go to school any longer, but it taught me a very valuable lesson in the long run.
Awesome! A Fireman with an Edge Trem!
And its a lo pro!!!
I want to be Paul Gilbert's Friend
Me too.
Me Four.

Paul is the man, his contribution to the guitar World is monumental
Literally one of the only dudes you can sit and watch all day. So down to earth, loves what he does and is a master of his craft. Awesome guy.
This episode is rated PG
Paul Price ayyyyyyyes
Martin Brooks this program is habit forming
I love Paul Gilbert's positive energy - he is so happy playing and talking about Guitar! It makes his ArtistWorks school that much nicer to study :D
Paul gave a session for kids in Portland a few months ago. My 11 yo was truly inspired by the small concert/discussion. Paul is a special person.
Cant get enough of Paul Gilbert.
Coolest and down to earth virtuoso there is. He remained a true music and guitar fan. Talks about other guitar heroes like a young kid would do. While in the same time he is one of the gratest.
Nothing but love for the guy
his online school is good stuff...and getting to correspond with him directly via video is just awesome..he is one of the best teachers out there and an amazing human being to boot and if you have not checked his online school out..go for it..free trial..jam tracks..lessons galore..just good stuff for everybody
thanks for the kind words!
Just found this...hope it’s still running
Thanks Capt, one of the greatest guitarist to walk this earth.
I love the description of the first section of Stairway as "idk they're singin about hobbits or some shit", literally made me lmao
I just want Paul Gilbert to be one of my relatives
"if you're not familiar with my guest" ARE YOU SERIOUS!?
You're
I think he was being slightly sarcastic
I must admit I'd never heard of him until he was mentioned on this channel a few months ago, I think by Guthrie Govan.
its all good i understand not everyone knows him right away but after you hear him play you will be hooked. I just grew up on Mr. big and Gilbert was always a big influence for me for playing guitar.
as was I XD
every time I see an interview with Gilbert I leave it in a better mood. Such an awesome dude.
Hey, I'm 56 and I always was a music disciple. I remember stomping all over the place to the sound of music when I was only two. My first living memory is me sort of sleeping in my crib ( couple of months I guess ) listening to the music playing in the room I was in, alone. For a long time now, many people look at me funny for still loving all kinds of music so much, as if that phase should precisely have been over for a while when in fact, it never was a phase, at least not for me. I Watch and listen to people like Paul here and I understand I'm not a lone freak. This guy is as happy talking and playing music as a kid left alone in a closed candy store. I love the man ! It is such a treat to listen to his stories and see the sparkles in his eyes.. Thank God for music !! Bless you Paul.
I'm 3 years older check out John Jewell 1985..Graduated in 87..Billy and Paul private lessons that year.My 1985 list was before M.I. before school and Seth Riggs
Invaluable lesson and insight thank you Gilbert and the Captain! 👏
Paul Gilbert! Such a nice guy.
Anyone notice he is using hearing aids?
Beware, folks, for the Volume of your amps!
TONE doesn't mean being loud. It's about feel and soul
Brian "Too Loud" MacLeod, woudn't agree with you.
Francisco André Gonçalves some amps (Orange uhum) need to get turned up for tone
Some amps need volume before they start sounding good.
That's why we have earplugs. When you go to a concert, wear earplugs, when you're playing live with a band, wear earplugs.
My neighbors love the music I play they always scream so I turn up :)
Paul Gilbert is even on a site about hearing, giving his own advice about what he wished he dod differently in the past.
Paul Gilbert as a player and human are unmatched. What a great guy.
I've watched this about 6 times and still love it
Love his energy! Great sense of humor as well!
The Captain and Tennille" - Classic Paul. He's such a cool dude
I got that too; I remember the Captain's silly hat.
Captain Meets Satchel (Steel Panther)!!
Now THAT is something I could watch for 20+ minutes.
that would be fuckin amazing
Satchel prefers female interviewers.
Did you know Satchel trained under Paul Gilbert at GIT, and has written with him?
O, Phillip Phillip, bad brain day, eh? It's funny how some pople can't comprehend humour. Now having said that, go fuck yourself little shitstain.
What a humble virtuoso. He is an interesting fellow as well as a great guitarist.
You can tell he has soo much passion for music. I love it, it is inspirational.
Paul is so fucking cool he can wear what he likes and always be fucking cool.
My band gets to perform as direct support for Mr. Big in June, and I won't be able to sleep until then knowing that I'll be sharing the stage with and watching one of my all time heroes do what he does best (and if I'm lucky, get to pick his brain a bit)! Great interview as always, I could listen to Paul and The Captain go on for days. This one came at just the right time. (:
Danny Zoltani how'd it go
F*CK SH*T Tv it was amazing! Killer crowd, killer set, The band sounded incredible and I got the opportunity to meet all of the guys, and talk with Pat before his passing. And, I got to cower in fear while some of the guys watched our soundcheck. Lol. One of my best memories!
Great interview! Paul was at the Satriani G3 camp I went to a year or so ago, and he was the nicest guy in all the classes he taught, and he praised EVERYONE'S technique and ideas as they jammed. His classes were of course always packed.
bloody brilliant. he is fun to watch and inspiring.
he's the man, love the way he appreciates music, and not just random shredding bollocks (which is good, but far more impressive in small doses IMO)
Nicest guy ever!! Cheers from Brazil!
Paul Gilbert is such a monster. One of the greatest technicians in history. 🎸
I love all the Captain meets episodes, but i keep coming back to this one, Paul is just the nicest most genuine and humble guy. Also his playing is beyond glorious!
He's so articulate. It's incredible.
i worked in the music biz for 25 years, i can honestly say that paul gilbert is one of the nicest, funniest, most down to earth dudes i ever came across. i ran into him many times over the years from the late 80's until just a few years ago, and he has consistently always been a super cool, laid back, wonderful dude.
definitely one of the good guys in rock and roll.
Wow what an amazing interview, such a Talent and awsum bloke, Genuine guitar legend still loving it xxx
Imaging being 6 years old and able to say... "I am only six, I can wait."!
This is the best Captain Meets yet. Lee does an excellent job just being himself. Paul Gilbert comes across as a genuine great guy and genuinely awesome!
Andertons should feature as a case study in every Business 101 course, "How to do marketing by social media right".
Captain I think you should interview Rabea. Honestly. Rabea is my favorite guitarist and I just love his stuff and it would be cool to see him go more in detail about his background! great conversation btw! Arguably the best guest yet!
And its not really hard .....he is right there anyways!!
S0V23 that would be a great idea
This would be awesome!
amazing idea! please bring Rabea!
And Danish Pete! And Mick Taylor!
I have watched this a thousand times, Paul is such a great and humble guy.
Love watching this. He's so humble and will show you everything he wants everyone to know these things
