Shred before the shredders

[C-Grin]

I was a fan and still am of AL Demiola. But that is Jazz fusion.

That dude is bad ass, what was that one record that was so good?

Elegant gypsy!

A demon on the guitar.

A shredders shredder.

Besides. You could go on for a long time naming them all. You kind of miss the point about Shawn .

No comment.

OK, he played a lot of notes really fast, gotta give him props for that. I don't think any of it sounds very musical and I don't enjoy listening to his playing. A guy like Paul Gilbert can play just as fast but it sounds like music, not an exercise. And of course EVH and UJR (and Steve Howe if we are being honest) were older and had this stuff down before he ever came on the scene, without even getting into the fusion guys.

Shaw Lane was very fast and underrated..

There are so many shredders out there…
Michael Romeo
Rusty Cooley
Jeff Loomis
Chris Broderick
Paul Gilbert
Steve Vai

And many many more….

All those guys you mentioned are not shredders Except Marty and Jason.


Shred is different level of playing, some enjoy some say its not musical bla bla…

But its still shredistic

Ramo knows his Shred.

Rusty Cooley gets a nod. Nice.

Yup, that's Rusty.

in some ways, he reminds me of John Petrucci. MAN o Man check out John at 4:30+. I listened first, then went back and watched him shred.

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

Thank you Ola Englund 2

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

Quite by accident as I was wanting to hear some Ola, I found a clip with him and Jeff Loomis whom Ramo mentioned.

 

[Ramo]

Yup, that's Rusty.

I had his solo work. Suspended animation… really good album… not keen on Dream Theatre tho

I saw loomis play years ago in Nevermore . He and Chris Broderick had that band. I think they were from Seattle.
They are both great players . I wonder how they ever get to be so good ?

I have seen Dream Theater. Patrucci is a great player as is so many players before him.

Seen Uli several times. He's one heck of a nice guy too.

A great musician, same experience, spent time with all his fans.

And he was improvising like only a master can. That night, (without me realizing) my view of guitar playing changed. Looked at it from a different perspective.

Long Live Uli!

This is not where I hang out but interesting none the less.

Discipline, talent, lots dedication and practice.

Time , influences and vision also. With out influences they would have no direction.
All that eluded me long ago.
Just another race I'm not running. Lol

I just happed upon the video and managed to stick out to the end.
#1 was not as obvious as I thought would be. He stands in very heavy field of shredders.
