Name all the best guitarists on earth, none of them play with as much feel as this guy. Andy is every amazing guitarist on their best day, on any given day
I’m being honest when I say this song is my favorite riff/solo instrumental of all time something is very special about this song Andy put his heart and soul in this one you can feel it I have been playing guitar for 26 years and heard it all but Andy James is something special
Me too, it's a perfect balance or harmony, tone, emotion, technicality without getting too bogged down in any one of them.... A perfect electric guitar instrumental. TY Andy
One of best modern metal guitarist really amazing Andys songs dnt need a singer his guitar can talk, i would love saw a lot of their compositions in movies or games idk
I really think that this is his best balade song. It just goes to show you that you don't always need to play 300 notes a minute to create a magnificient piece. If only Mr. Malmsteen understood that! That's what I love about Mr. James, he covers a large array and can play different styles and can play super fast or slow. well done and come to Canada. I live in Ottawa (capital of Canada) and would love to watch you play
This song alone, well kind in addition to "stay-Shakespeare's sister's" and his actual song "stay"... These three without a shadow of a doubt saved my life, from self harm, heroin addiction and an overwhelming sense of "I'll never deserve to be happy...". This man's emotional and wide open heart felt choruses absolutely grabbed me down from the edge.... If you only knew brotha what your music has done for my just, my inner love and respect. I owe that to this man 🤘😝🤘
AJ is my favorite instrumental guitarist. That's saying a lot. I'm 55 and have been a guitar instrumental afficianodo from the 80s to today and to my ears AJ is the best "modern" player. I know he needs to eat but frankly AJ being in 5FDP is about like Randy Rhoads playing with KISS. Talk about being WAY overqualified for a job... I just hope he keeps putting out BRILLIANT guitar instrumental releases like "C. S. I. L" and his earlier instrumental masterpieces. I'm very familiar with MANY guitarists and there are many many outstanding guitarists out there but Andy's melodicism over super-heavy chord structures is just next level to MY ears. Another player that very few probably even have heard is David Valdes. Listen to his INCREDIBLE modern neoclassical releases "Paradise Lost" and "Imhotep." Thank me later. 🤘
Andy..you inspire me..thank u do much for all u do..it means a lot to me...not just musically..granted I only know u thru your music but that alone helps me know u.. I've been thru good n bad times and your music helps me...as well I'm also getting more advanced on guitar and your playing insides the f*** out of me..thank u so much for all u do! My new born says thanks as well for helping her daddy!!
Andy has become one of my faves , I have this and listen to the CD. Yes CD in my old 1991 Honda accord. Love all of his material, especially " exit through the ashes" (not from this album) all of his songs are absolutely amazing and melodic. I can hear andy soul through his playing .
Love Andy! Taught me how to play with fuzzies on my strings. Has great instructional videos, first slow speed to FAST, which will blow your mind! Thanks Andy.☮️🎸☮️
Some people look down upon using "fuzzies" when playing live as it's kind of cheating since you don't have to worry about playing clean enough to muffle strings and whatnot. I personally only use them when practicing hard lead stuff or recording lead stuff since,well, recording is hell incarnate lol. Andy's still a monster player though, love his stuff.
@@ryanschindler923 There is no cheating, just other guitarist that needs to complain about others success. Why not use the string fuzzies if it makes the sound even cleaner? it's like fucking a ugly woman rather then a hot one.
I´m not complaining when people go super technical but keeping it rather "simple" and playing super clean is much more enjoyable for me. And he still has some juicy licks in there. Awesome performance.
Indeed it does, and I’m glad, we need more guitarists like Joe. I don’t care if someone is the fastest or most technically amazing guitarist ever. If they can’t reign it in to produce something melodic and with feeling, it’s just boring.
Metallian81 i agree casue someone like jason richardson is far more technical than andy and petrucci however i could listen to petrucci or aj for way longer and thier wore interesting
Yup Im sure Satch and possibly Petrucci were influences. This song in particular sounds like something off Pink Floyd's Divison Bell album, but Satch instead of Gilmore
He is probably the cleanest player alive when u factor in the complexity of his paying.......... phrasing, technic, musicality. Truly one of the greats...
my right ear loved this song
Ali Shahbaz shut up and enjoy
im deaf in my left ear fucktard
Hahaha
Ali Shahbaz because he knew that?
Song or Melody?

This comment can be forgiven given your age......
Feel??? You haven’t seen steve vai and joe satriani yet? Hahahaha

Yes, I share the same thoughts. This is my favourite too 😁
Vinai T
When I run this song makes me speed up every time. That is so true. I can feel the emotion flowing out of this song. It's unbelievable.
Same, especially the solo after the tapping part, it's insane the amount of emotions put into it.
Me too, it's a perfect balance or harmony, tone, emotion, technicality without getting too bogged down in any one of them.... A perfect electric guitar instrumental. TY Andy
This Man has some serious Talent!!!!
His live tone is so good 👍🏻
The tones all in the chained wallet!
Great comment !

Conheci esse cara agora, estou viciado nesse solo.
Ele conseguiu algo no nível Steve Vai, quanta emoção nessas melodias.
Muito bom!
He needs to keep writing stuff like this.

@@ryanschindler923”why make it easy. When you can make it hard” the people that complain about technique and fuzzies
some relax and made me fresh to my brain .. slowly but sure
I need this tone.
What a brilliant performance !! Great post my brother :)
So Beautiful
Me enamoré

Great job.
Superbbb
That feeling!
Andy James the best!!!
this song does have some of Sach sounds in it
absolutely
Indeed it does, and I’m glad, we need more guitarists like Joe.
I don’t care if someone is the fastest or most technically amazing guitarist ever. If they can’t reign it in to produce something melodic and with feeling, it’s just boring.
You mean Satch.
Vince Yang yah. He is really good. His sound is Satriani
Metallian81 i agree casue someone like jason richardson is far more technical than andy and petrucci however i could listen to petrucci or aj for way longer and thier wore interesting
Andy is the man
Super spectacular AJ
awesome
it's just a perfect tone :o
Damn andy....nothing less i can say bout u man....real smthg, indeed.
Lucky camera dude!
Coolest guitar on earth!
My idol🎸👌
Мурашки по коже!!! Ты ОХУЕНЕН, Джеймс!!!
The Best"
Good stuff. Can't do modern melodic guitar instrumental without sounding a bit like Joe Satriani. That's a compliment!
Yup Im sure Satch and possibly Petrucci were influences. This song in particular sounds like something off Pink Floyd's Divison Bell album, but Satch instead of Gilmore
Silk and smooth,🦄
crazy
Hes so clean
Very gooddd...
Мой любимый гитарист в деле!))
4:21 HOLY MOTHER OF GOD
indeed a sexy run
That was cleaner than my grandma's house too. Jesus.
Oh yea! What about Solo 2, 2:17, and that solo's outro over the top!
Same words I say broooohhh lml
Blood of Jesus
love this song, tasteful player, very nice! and s shred meister general for sure. metal rules.
thank you I am like 👉👍👍👌👌💘💓
Nice 👍
Not even one mistake. Are you human, Andy?
No mistakes but, some notes are different to the original record
@@DouglasRivitti doesn't matter. It's a mistake if a note is off-key or out of tune
@@MarkyPaligs Yeah, makes sense
@@MarkyPaligs tell that buckethead hahahaha
Simply ridiculous majesty
Sos un mostro chabón !!!!
He can shred and great melody. Sometimes slow is the key til the part in the song where you slap somebody 😂
9/4/2019 bee time
