3 роки томуWe all know the legendary Stairway To Heaven solo by Jimmy Page...
...But what if it was played by someone else like Peter Frampton, Eddie Van Halen or Eric Johnson played the Stairway To Heaven Solo? I brought in my friends Eric Johnson and Phil X to find out.

@04041919 8 місяців тому
Eric's tone is simply unmistakable: melodic, elegant, goosebump-inducing. You can always hear him out among hundreds of guitarists and he doesn't even have to follow the maxim of many guitar heroes, which often follows the motto: faster, shriller, more spectacular. For me it's definitely the best of the three solos.

Great idea, Rick....All of you did masterful alternate rides. Any one of them could very well have been the solo that all local "Guitar Gods" (and their apprentices) would be trying to cover note-for-note, just like so many of us HAD to do with Page's solo from the very first time we heard the tune. And for good reason, as it turns out, given how popular the song quickly became & still is to this day. Only wish I had a dollar in my wallet for every time it has been requested of us at a gig.....I could build myself another Harley & have $$ left over. (Well, that may be a slight exaggeration...Better throw "Free Bird" in there, too. Scooter parts are not cheap) 🤔 But I know you get my point. I was actually getting a little burned out on the tune as a whole, and then saw Ann & Nancy Wilson do it with Bonham, Jr., & that incredible back-up ensemble....Wow. Anyway, Rick, an interesting presentation from you today, as usual. I am a dedicated fan & admirer of your work....Keep it comin' Buddy 👍😉😎🎸

It's interesting that no matter who is playing my brain still hears Jimmy Page, as if the original notes are so indelible they exist even when they're gone like a phantom limb. I wonder if anybody else had this experience. Fantastic video, Rick.

@stanphillips7277 3 роки тому
Yeah , I kinda had this comparison track running through my head throughout all 3... It's indelibly implanted in whatever area of the brain that stores that sort of thing I think...it was a fun little experiment with maybe the most iconic guitar solo ever...I think it's important to note how accurate they got the rhythm track, that in and of itself with the attention to detail, right down to the twelve string fender was remarkable..but like a phantom limb, expounding upon that metaphor the body was so close to the original , that I could hear it too...I wonder if it was tough to overcome that for the 3 guys, to not get dragged out of Frampton and into Page would have taken a certain defiant concentration...I will continue to ignore it, I won't think about it ...tricky to strike the balance I'd Imagine... staying true to the experiment insists that you think about it, but not so much as to forget your playing in the style of whomever you're supposed to be imagining their interpretation might have sounded like... except of course Eric Johnson for obvious reasons lol... overall that's 12 minutes well spent for me, of course I haven't counted the time I'm spending commenting, but I'm finished so Coda if you will☮️
@Hangover_Bear 3 роки тому
BrotherDevious Let’s face it, Page’s solo has been playing in everyone’s head for 45+ years. So unless you had truly never heard it before, it’s tough to just ignore it. It’s no different than lyrics for songs that you haven’t heard in decades yet still remember when the song is played

@@RickBeato Nice concept. Would like to see a part 2 that would be more radical, various guitarists playing in their own styles 1. Adam Rogers or Julina Lage (great jazz guitarists but who play multiple styles) 2. Charles Caswell of Berried Alive (Highly innovative) 3. Charles Berthoud (bass solo as fluent and melodic as a guitarist) 4. Yvette young (innovative ) 5. Sean Angus Watson ( beautifully melodic and toneful) this could be done with the given backing track or re-made one in different styles of Stairway, jazz version, metal etc or no particular style -open - or perhaps another classic song not quite as over done as Stairway maybe Heart, "Barracuda", Steely Dan Josie or Funkadelic - Maggot Brain (this one could also be a What Makes This Song Great? One of the best guitar solos in my opinion ) thanks, your my favorite music theory channel, learned a lot -can you set up some live jams ? like guitar, bass, drums, vibes, any instruments, all jamming from different youtube channels at the same time live? again, thanks rick, for so many inspiring videos

Affirmative, less so on the drums. Admirable attempt but the kit was lacking. No hate for the attempt though. Playing anything that Bonzo did perfectly is a mountain that most folks would simply choose to pass on. The EVH needed some more tapping, harmonics, and a dive bomb or two IMO. Eric Johnson has always made me want to throw my guitars off the Cliffs of Dover as I once again realize how much more I need to improve to possess one scintilla of the skillset Mr. Johnson possesses. Wow! Makes me really miss another TEXAS boy SRV. RIP Stevie! We will never forget you and I am positive the chorus upstairs really appreciates having you blazing through solos playing for the Big Guy! Quite a retinue of players there now but it would have been nice to have had a few more years prior to your far too early exit stage left. Us native Austinites were so blessed with regard to how many times we were treated with your myriad of performances across central Texas that I (for one) took it for granted. I miss those halcyon days of SRV, Eric Johnson, Ian Moore , W.C. Clark, Jesse Taylor, Buddy Guy, the Sexton bro’s.,etc, etc. That was when Austin really was the live music capitol of the world! Those days have faded away like an Aquafest poster or the graffiti on the the little bridge you drive under on Lamar heading towards 6th street. Man, I miss Austin 1975-1990. Thanks for moving away from your shite hole state and changing Austin into the same crap hole you left trying to escape. Yeah California, I’m talking about you!!! But I digress...🥺
