I have really been inspired by Marco Sfoglis playing. Its so fast and clean

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Feb 15 2012, 11:19 PM

yes! and he keeps being melodic in spite of being a killer sheddrer.

Posted by: Sinisa Cekic Feb 16 2012, 12:09 AM

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Feb 16 2012, 06:46 PM

Soooo Good!

Just got to love rick graham.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Dec 9 2016, 05:31 PM

That's beautiful!

Back when Dream Theater were at their best, in my opinion Would love to have a similar sound to Petrucci in this era:

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Dec 12 2016, 03:56 PM

This is also my favorite era and John's tone. I remember that I've caught in love with their music with this live concert, or maybe another one but from the same year...

Great vid, thanks for sharing.

Posted by: Caelumamittendum Dec 12 2016, 08:15 PM

They were great back then, and very inspirational!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Dec 14 2016, 02:22 PM

It's curious but this also happens to me with some other players for example with Malmsteen. I love his playing and tone in the 80's and early 90's but I haven't enjoyed his playing the last 15/20 years. His tone changed, and his playing too in a similar way to John's.

Posted by: Phil66 Jan 4 2017, 09:15 PM

For me, this video is very inspiring, I've posted it in the chill out zone too but thought it would be good kept in here.
The playing, obviously, is inspiring but the guys comments like "Who crafted him", and "I think I've just seen a god, you are the god sir" are inspiring too for some reason. His face at 8:30 displays total awe. This is the first time he has seen Mr Vai.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Jan 6 2017, 01:04 AM

That's so inspiring! Now I want to see that show complete! Vai is pure magic.

Thanks for sharing Phil.

Posted by: Phil66 Jan 9 2017, 04:03 PM

Yeah, Mr Vai is inspiring in his playing with the orchestra but the bloke's comments are another dimension of inspiration don't you think?
"Who crafted him?"

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Jan 9 2017, 11:48 PM

haha yeah, it's a cool vid.

Posted by: Phil66 Jan 15 2017, 08:59 PM

Show how putting the work in gets the results out!

Tina S is great and it shows what putting in the hours can do for you!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Jan 20 2017, 12:46 AM

I love that video. She is so inspiring. Thanks for sharing Phil.

Posted by: Phil66 Jan 30 2017, 09:12 PM

Gab, I think you should pin this topic to the important topics list

The main solo is incredible.

You can go straight to the solo >>>>>https://youtu.be/vi7cuAjArRs?t=293<<<<< if you don't want to watch the whole thing.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Jan 31 2017, 02:36 AM

Yeah! That solo is pure magic. I love his tone, feeling and phrasing. It's very inspiring. Thanks Phil!

Posted by: Phil66 Feb 1 2017, 09:10 PM

This is another stunning piece of playing. The guitar is just a part of his soul on this one. Especially good from 1:30, his control is phenomenal!

Just the solo:

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Feb 2 2017, 01:00 AM

Wouuuu! That's a fantastic solo over my favorite Beatles song ever! That was very inspiring Phil. Thanks a lot for sharing!

Posted by: Phil66 Feb 2 2017, 09:17 AM

I never knew Prince was such an amazing guitarist, he slipped under my radar it was only couple of years ago when Rob Balducci (check him out, a certain Mr Vai signed him) told me Prince was his favourite guitarist. I was urprised as I never had him down as a guitarist. I knew he could play a bit but I didn't know he was a virtuoso.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Feb 2 2017, 07:49 PM

yeah, he definitely was a very talented artist. I don't know all his stuff, I wonder if he has some more guitar oriented albums.

Posted by: Phil66 Feb 16 2017, 08:38 PM

Not to do with music but everything to do with perseverance!

I've just seen the first vid and it's really inspiring. Thanks for sharing this beautiful vid.

Posted by: Phil66 Feb 17 2017, 09:17 PM

I've watched the edited video (first one) many times over the years, when I get to the 8 minute point my eyes are leaking, every time, without fail. It's well worth watching the full version if you get time.

Posted by: Phil66 Sep 18 2017, 08:56 PM

This girl always inspires.

For some reason the videos I posted above have been removed. I've found a similar one, I think it's worth being here.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Sep 21 2017, 03:30 PM

Nice vids Phil. I've seen both in the past and I also find them very inspirational. Thanks for sharing them here.

Posted by: Phil66 Sep 21 2017, 08:02 PM

I don't know why, but I find this inspiring.

Coming soon, video of a Queen tribute duo. Ok the guitarist isn't Brian May but it still inspired to pick up my guitar and try harder. I'll post when I get back. He nailed May's tone as best he could with a Vox practise amp mic'd up and a hotel sound system.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 5 2017, 02:45 PM

I love it. It's VERY inspiring.

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 10 2017, 10:16 PM

OK, these two videos aren't inspiring for their playing skills, they aren't virtuosos but I'd be extremely happy to be as good as them.

These are an inspiration because of the happiness music gives. They are enjoying playing and the people, as you will see are enjoying watching.

This, for me, is what music is all about. It was our last night on holiday, we heard them as we were walking back to the hotel, we made a detour following our ears and had some fun

They are having a GREAT time. They are having fun and it's spread to their audience.

Posted by: Phil66 Oct 11 2017, 08:17 PM

Yeah, this was just set up in a walkway of the pedestrian area, not in a bar, just basically in the street. My wife was loving it and wanted me to give them 50 Euros lol. I gave them 10 Euros.

In a REC, what would you give them? I only ask out of interest. The guitarist was really enjoying One Way Or Another wasn't he?

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Oct 12 2017, 11:36 PM

At REC? mm tricky, I think that this would be around 6/7, it's not bad, but there is room to polish rhythm, and those bends.

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 5 2018, 03:19 PM

Wow, a 6 or 7? That makes me feel much better, seriously it does because I thought they were great and the audience were loving it.

Another inspiring video, not about music but about determination, this can TOTALLY be applied to learning guitar I think. Keep at it

Nice story mate, very inspiring. Thank you very much!!

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 8 2018, 08:38 PM

Life ain't easy motherf**&£r. I'm sure he's nearly crying at the end of this.

If you wanna be like Saint Dime or Saint Rhodes you gotta put the time in.

Inspiring in a brutally honest way!!!!!!

Thanks Phil!!

This is my inspiring video of the day:

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 9 2018, 09:10 PM

Nice one Gab, Grohl is a special man.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 10 2018, 11:28 PM

yes, he is! I'm enjoying the new song, it's cool to hear while driving.

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 11 2018, 08:07 PM

GRAB IT WHEN YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 12 2018, 11:25 PM

I'll do!! Thank you Phil!!

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 14 2018, 05:43 PM

This is my inspiring video of the day. Satch playing on this one is exquisite!

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 15 2018, 08:26 PM

I haven't got one today mate, but that is awesome playing from Satriani

Posted by: Phil66 Aug 29 2018, 08:44 PM

One word, SUBLIME!

I've always liked him, but the more I listen and try to play similar things the more respect and appreciation I have of this man. He made it look so so easy, I'm starting to put him above Satriani and Vai and even Govan, I don't mean for technical ability or shred, he just had so much soul in his fingers and in his heart, oh, his guitar is awesome too, it looks a little bit used

Hi Phil, the video is not working.

Posted by: n3m57 Sep 27 2018, 09:15 AM

My new favorite french guitarist : Pascal Vigné

I took 2 hours of lesson with him, in his studio, it was awesome !
He played in front of me the song that starts at 8:43.
These bends go straight to my heart, just like his vibrato.

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Sep 27 2018, 02:58 PM

Hi mate!! Great to see you posting here. Congrats on that amazing experience!!

I'm not checking that song that he played. I like his melodic style, nice phrasing and feeling. I can notice Satriani's vibes on him. Very cool!


Thanks for sharing!!
