    Eric Gales has been to the crossroads and made some deals...no way around it.

    Gales is a top tier player. Great performance here. I really love when a great player does a cover like this-it's an interpretation, not a straight up cover. Some of the negative comments leave me shaking my head. The jazz and classical tangents he goes off on are really cool and that's what I love about this and when he does guitar show booth demos that you don't hear on his albums.

      Jimi strung his upside down though so he played it like a normal left hander. This guy plays it the hard way. Amazing.

      @@handmadehearts Jimi would be impressed. He couldn’t play this way. Jimi is said to have played “upside down and backwards” because he turned the guitar backwards and strung it upside down, so it played like a normal left handed guitar. So in reality it wasn’t as big of a deal as it sounds. He basically just played left handed made out of a right handed one. But this guy, WOW! He’s truly playing upside down and backwards!! He doesn’t have it restrung. It’s truly upside down! It’s still in the right handed configuration. So he truly is playing upside down and backwards! My fingers can’t even comprehend it. 😂😂

      Seriously? He lacked the fretboard skills to play it even remotely as it was intended, (like Jimi or SRV) so he put his own spin on it. The result: It was difficult to sit in the audience for 13 fucking minutes of this.

    BADASS! With elements of jazz, classical, Indian, and I think I even heard a few bars of "Kashmir"!
    Eric is all about improvisation & genre blending. Incredibly however, he's doing it all upside-down & backwards (When you're a kid growing up without a lot of scratch, again you must IMPROVISE!)
    It fascinates me to watch self taught guys like Eric and (one of the "Three Kings"), Albert King, play this way so effectively!
    This isn't (by far) Eric's best video for guitar mastery, though.
    You guys check out his others, as well! He's a fretboard wizard when in the zone!

  • @andyeaves6086
    @andyeaves6086 Před 9 měsíci

    I've now watched many many videos of Eric playing live and what I find incredible is that he always appears to be improvising a lot of the time but he not only never has a note out of place but his timing is perfect - that's the really astonishing thing. Many other guitarists can improvise but only Gales gets the timing so perfect. It's just so satisfying! You rock Eric, please come to the UK soon?!!!

    The incredible Eric Gales!
    Eric Gales...
    • He's blistering hot at the Blues.
    • He’s super-human when he Rocks.
    Eric Gales’ guitar screams a vicious VOODOO child - rolls over a beautiful Beethoven.
    Eric wields his instrument like THOR'S HAMMER an’ calls down the thunder of Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" and back to a scorching Hendrix so powerfully played, that as in true heavy-metal mythology, the lightning-licks could ignite volcanos, blast the moon out of Earth’s orbit, and rise up the four horse-men of the rock-a-pocalypse!
    The incredible Eric Gales!
    Yes indeed.
    Eric can play guitar like a cosmos striding super-hero right out of a Jack Kirby comic-book.
    Eric Gales is the answer to; "What if the "Silver Surfer played guitar".
