Awesome to see Paul Gilbert here, but his bandmate Bruce Bouillet was no slouch!!! On their first live album, his solo - especially the beginning - was epic. Rob plays it too on this video....
I grew up in the 80's as a guitar fan of the Shrapnel Records Army. Every Guitarist picked by Mike Varvey to his record labele was absolutley Amazing. I was first drawn in by Racer X, but I soon became a huge fan of Greg Howe. I loved, and still love, Gteg's increadable playing style, and techniques. If you ever get a chance to listen his band, Howe II, with his brother on vocals? Than you will be blessed with one of the most amazing bands you'll ever hear.
I saw them live in Dallas soon after their second vocal album came out at the now closed 'Basement'. After the show, few people were left. Got a chance to hang with them. Greg was super cool, as was his bass player Vern Parsons (who is also a saxophone player). Met Greg again back in 2017 in McKinney and brought a pick from that show. He remembered meeting me. Pretty cool.
In the mid 90's I came across a Tony Macalpine record in a bargin bin in a second hand store. As a guitarist I picked it up, cost me five bucks I think. I'd forgotten what a great player he is.
All these guitarist are amazing… However there is one player here not mentioned and played only one track from the Varney crew then got signed instantly to Warner Bros. SHAWN LANE also probably the only one faster than Cooley Not that it matters..!
So you can still go see some of our shredders here at the Baked Potato in Hollywood & the Coach House when they are in town for really cheap especially around Jan when the NAMM show is running - k gotta go check out more Greg Howe stuff I forgot how good he was / is and stopped filling him after the 90s awesome post tho ..
Tony MacAlpine´s new album "Equilibrium" ist a banger. Sadly, it´s only available as sound file. My favorite albums by Greg Howe are "Uncertain Terms" and "Parallax". Listen also to the instrumental "Fuzz Universe" by Paul Gilbert. It´s amazing.
back when richie kotzen i felt was more Vai-ing his legatos r super power plus added neo-classical n funk feel later super speed no joke his earliest stuff
Hello Guys, I see that all guitar hero rappresentaded in this video make sweeping. I don't know if someone has mentioned it (sorry if is double) but i think to add Luca Turilli. I like this video I remember my 80' and 90' guitar's years. 🤘🤘🤘
Todos influenciados por um sueco de 19 anos ,isso não é novidade. O Greg Howe hoje detona!! O Kotzen é foda! O Tony hoje é musical demais. O Paul Gilbert tem a técnica mais precisa em relação a velocidade. E o sueco depois do terceiro álbum tirou o pé do acelerador e ficou repetitivo demais. Mas pois toda essa geração na carruagem e hipnotizou todo o mundo no início dos.anos 80.
if u are just playing fast stuffs and its an exercise its gets boring for awhile but paul glbert even makes that amazing and pretty hard for basic guitar players you have to go to learning alternate picking plus strig skipping yeh listen to mcalpine etude on piano chopin piece damn i heard bumblefoot play that on Guitars that rule the world late 90's damn another mind blowing two-hand tapper \m/ , yeh i know eat your donuts like yngwie haha
Awesome players... Always looking up to PG, Greg Howe, Kotzen, Macalpine, my guitar heroes.. its like being a kid again.. thanks for this
A sample of some... some of the great guitarists the 80's gave us. They were everywhere.....
I am glad I grew up during this time of great guitarists !
Steve Stevens has so much character on his playing..
And Richie had the most beautiful RG i have ever seen.

Don't let the slow gin order the wine!

Yeah man..Varneys Shrapnel has some serious Badass guitar players!
They all have different styles but Paul Gilbert all day long for that super speed yet super clean and monstrous articulate picking technique ❣️
THE UNCLE~MR.STEVE STEVENS FOOTAGE IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE VIDEO...
It's funny after all these years I didn't realize how much the Steve Stevens stuff reminds me of the old Blues Saraceno stuff.
GREG HOWE is the most fantastic beast of a guitarist!
Plays better nowadays than he did back then IMO.
@@matrags True. His experience in life as a preforming artist has made him better with age.
I am so proud of this guy! I jammed with him in the 90's! Rock on Greg!
Greg Howe is soo much better now
Yes! He was technical and all here but his style developed and just turned into full on fusion later on!
Yep.😊
I pick Tony Macalpine and Greg Howe( he like Satriani moving from 22 frets yo 24 but Greg is more creative.
@@BlizzardOfSteelHe was sloppy here, not technical.

When Ritchie Kotzen blew evryone away
When did Richie ever do that?
Holy sht! Thanks for posting this murderer's row of insanely gifted guitar players.
Cool to see Joey paying tribute to Randy with a version of Randy's famous guitar solo from the Ozzy (and partially the QR) days.
You saved the best for last Macalpine!!
🤗♥️♥️♥️💯🎸🎸🎸
Tony MacAlphine It the best guitarist in this prezent man
Tony pulling a lightspeed Bach Cm Prelude out of thin air.
talent excess
Excess hours practicing in the woodshed out back.
Paul is the king
All these guitarist are amazing…
However there is one player here not mentioned and played only one track from the Varney crew then got signed instantly to Warner Bros.
SHAWN LANE
also probably the only one faster than Cooley
Not that it matters..!
I’d bet Steven’s would be a good fit for the Hagar plays VH tour.
That awesome tapping progression by cooley at 26 minutes. That was very ambient and hypnotizing!
I saw that approach first with Joe Satriani though I have no idea who did it first. Very cool.
EL SUPER HOMBRE FANTASTICO TONY MACALPINE
EL MEJOR DE LO MEJOR

I guess this is the original version of Nuno's Midnight Express :-)
Steve Stevens's acoustic picking was quite impressive!
Paul Gilbert stole the show here for me!
