Thanks! I listened to Surfing with the Alien so many times... Joe checks _all the boxes_, esp. melody. I connect with him in his interviews more than any other guitar player; a sharp, articulate guy who can really explain his ideas and philosophy. He is probably my #1 guitarist that I would like to have a beer with.

“Something like that.." You mean exactly like that, Dave!

Ha,exactly!

If i could push the like button 1000 times i would do it....I was waiting a Satriani episode....Good one David..!!

Thank you David. You are human and we are all human except Satriani is a guitar god :) Big big influence for me with Van Halen, metallica, Malmsteen and some others of this great period ! excuse me if my English is incorrect , I am French and I really like your guitar lessons THANK YOU

Love Joe. BIG inspiration and always brings new things to the table. His new album ShapeShifting is really really good. Thanks for the lesson man. Would love to see you do something on Saga. That guitar player was way underrated.

Thank you for the lesson. I will be working with that legato exercise for sure. It’s a real powerhouse

Really loved this lesson. Joe's so great. I remember the first time I heard surfing with the alien and blew my band and I all away.

Met him twice. Totally cool down to earth regular guy!

Great selection of Satriani riffs - Rock On

He Played that last lick before the song ten words on the album satriani live

Great lesson David. When I saw Joe play live, both he and I still had hair :)

That's some funny shit! Most of us are right there with ya🤣😂

I was a senior in high school when that album came out. Like you 🍺‘ski it blew my mind. We’d pull in in a old Chevy Caprice with that cranked. As always 🍺’ski great lesson!🤘

I had a chance to take lessons from him before he got famous, but dragged my heels too long and by the time I heard Not of This Earth, Surfing came out a couple weeks later. I even used to see him sometimes downstairs talking to students between lessons at Tupper and Reed Music in Berkeley when I was hanging out in the sheet music section. I did get to share ideas with a lot of his students over the years though, so even had I never heard him play, I still would have very much benefited from the lessons he gave to others.

Your vibrato is so full of expression. Love the lesson too!

I love that I can count on a new record every 18 months without fail! Digging his new one immensely. Unlike other 'shredders' (Hammett, Vai, Malmsteen ect) you rarely hear a pick-click or string squeak with Joe. His respect for each note sets him apart. When the little green men get here and say 'take me to your leader' I will take them to Joe Satriani.

So true man, I went to a Malmsteen show a few years back, his playing and his technique and speed are jaw-dropping and amazing but after 15 minutes I left because that's all it is technique and lightening speed with no substance or essence. Satriania ctually makes music that's listenable and that you want to hear over and over again that's what sets Joe apart. But anyway I think you already know that, yeah I'll the aliens to Joe as well

Wow Dave this eye, I mean ear opening content...thank you so much! I think I've watched and tried working on all your vids, but for me, the cool factor on that last little diddy is top shelf👍 Thanks again for putting out THE BEST DAMN CONTENT on KZread! Cheers🍻

This is one of the best guitar channels on the tube

There is something calming about your voice, that I want to watch your videos and you're an awesome guitar teacher...

Awesome as always David!!! Thank you. Love watching your Late night lessons!!!!

Awesome lesson as usual Dave, thanks! Always love the backstory leading up to the licks/chords.

Another awesome lesson Dave. Thanks 👍

He played Turkey Man intro as a start to Rubina on his Live from San Fransisco album. Never knew what that was from. Good stuff man!

Cool video once again, dig the last sequence!

lick#3 was awesome! thanks David

Excellent lesson!!!

So glad I stumbled onto your lessons. so much material for me to work with. great teaching. thank you, thank you!

My flavor.. Wore out Surfing with the Alien.. Satriani technically awesome but tricky as well.. What i was blown away by was the latin legato/sticcato pieces, of course the melodic pieces, last the way he seemed to write pieces in segments, then arrange them together seemlesly..

Back in 1987 Joe Satch was a revelation for me. Not of this Earth is still my favourite album. Please do Pat Thrall ( Hughes and Thrall ) video.

Great lesson as always. I love that chrome plated guitar of his. I remember back in the eighties when I tried to spray paint my Warmouth body with chrome spray paint...and it came out a ugly duct tape gray! Yeeeesh! I had the pleasure of seeing him in the late nineties with Stu Hamm. We were right up front. He does this crazy thing with his whammy bar arm over the pickups. Crazy sounding! Alien I'm telling you:)

Really good licks ! Thanks !!

Good stuff David my favorite performance of his and that band at the time is live in Paris the whole show is otherworldly 🤘

Great lesson! Joe has been my #1 influence / guitar hero for over 30 years. Love everything this legend puts out.

That was really good! Pity I only discovered you in 2023...

That Am6 lick is hauntingly beautiful.

Tanks. Nice talk.

I always watch that 87 gig and skip to those improv parts. Thank you for the great lesson! 🤘

This Channel is definetley Great !

Love your stuff mate. Only recently discovered it. Still catching up on all your videos 👏👏

Oh what a cool lesson-really have loved Joe Satriani since Surfing came out. Now-I thought I knew everything Joe put out...I never heard of the song Turkey Man...yet your part of it you presented was great because he uses that as an intro to Rubina live. It’s on the live in San Francisco album on the last tune. It’s such a cool progression. But I would love to get a transcription of it. You explain it well...but man that will take a while to learn. Just love how it sounds...I never knew that it came from an entirely different song though. Love the lesson-you and Joe are inspiring!!!!

THANK YOU!

so kool, saw Joe n Dallas Tx same year summer time in a tiny club PACKED TO BRIM< it was life changing! Malmsteen prior year at Horseshoe arena, i was rit by the sound guy..... YJM walks on stage to inspect, looks up, i FRANTICALLY wave. he sees me, n goes into a child like mode, it was so kool!

Cool licks man!Your lagato is awesome lol. Funny you posted this video as I am working on one of Joe's songs called Big Distortion. Great video once again!

Thxs! For this licks!! 😎👍

Thank's a lot man. Joe is my guitar heroes, the one who make me grab electric guitar. Marty Friedman is also my fav...lot's of em. Any Jason Becker licks? 👍👍👍

Hello Dave, thanks for the video! Could you follow up on Satriani in the future with 3 licks from 2015? That record has a lot of cool Lydian movements as well. Thanks again for the lessons.

Like this, Joe...

awesome...

Lick #2 just flows. Absolutely love it. Thanks

You mentioned “The Ventures” love that group!

Hi David, great video , please give us insights on Jan Akkerman in his “Focus” time

Sounds like a Criss Oliva lick the second one. Awesome

Thanks man

His best lesson would be that he writes songs that blow people away offering great insight into spiritual areas ,i love a shredder. But they will always be second to a great song.

The 3rd lick is from Memories. Great track

As always awesome work.How about a Tommy Bolin profile

Thanks

You are a Great Player!

Hell Yeah! 🤘🏼

Great vibrato

That phrase is liquid fangar! That sus2 is cool.

An obscure request David. Love if you did some riffs by Bob Welch. Especially the tune "Precious Love". What a great repeating riff imo. He played with Fleetwood Mac for a time and had a great solo career. But he seems to have been forgotten now a days. He had hits with "Ebony Eyes", "Sentimental Lady", and "Hypnotized". His albums "French Kiss" and "Three Hearts" are great imo. I tried in the past to figure out the "Precious Love" riff, but I am not so good at it by ear (though that was like 2 years ago). Anyway. Thanks for all your work man. Check out some of Bob's music (if you are not already familiar with it), esp those 2 albums I mentioned. I think you will really enjoy it. -Bruce

thanks for making the video I have see joe satriani, can you make a video lesson explaining how joe satriani uses Modal Progressions and Modes? Because I don't know how he uses modes

Hey David, I finally got around to learning this and there's a much easier way to finger it with position shifts and looking at it as 2 note groupings.

I was wondering if you could please play some Poison!! C.C. Deville!!!!!!

Three years, which is a LOT of lessons for any guitarist 😂

what pickups you are using..

Hey joe is from another planet for sure lol but do you think maybe you could give some tabs with the lessons please because some of us would like to play this stuff dude

What type of amp and effects are you using?

Joe Satriani just Released an LP of Surfing With the Alien Minus the Leads & Melodies, just everything else. I am having it turned into CD's. Would you Like a Copy?

Hi, David. Not sure if you have any videos going over this idea, but there is a "lick" that I always hear Joe play and can't really find more about it.kzread.info/dash/bejne/omF6o6yFeq3Smco.html it is in that video at 6:25 and given how many times I've heard from various guitarists I figure there has to be a name for it.

Mahavisnu...Jeff Beck...

Oh s*** you put Rick Hunolt in there damn right!!! You're playing "satch boogie's "KICKOFF"to the entire song first huh?

Tabs Please..

I remember I had a blue vinyl copy of "not of this Earth"I'm almost 50 years old man.Satriani&Vai.people listen to them now,don't realize back in the day it was people like me and you that were holed up in bedrooms..hermits listening to these dudes,months at a time until we got it right.but I'm not going to lie I totally scalloped out my strat and was a yngwie freak in 84-85... I pretty much lost interest when he released "eclipse"

He taught Steve, but it's not like he taught him from beginning to end, probably just few lessons here and there, not what we think

@knightfall9394

It definitely wasn’t a few lessons here and there, they spent a lot of time together growing up and playing. Obviously steve learned on his own and from others as well but the similarities between them and their music shows they spent some time together

You're not teaching each lick, and I'm not paying for a tab.

Not into Satriani or Vai anymore. Saw them both once. Yeah, they were great, but once is more than enough. There’s only so much friggin shredding you can listen too. Just like Yngwie. Boring. Where’s my bed.

Sorry i tapped the play button, everytime i even accidentally see this guy, he spends more time chirpin out his beak than anything...i outa here..
