Disability or not; a rockstar's gotta swagger 😂

Words cannot describe my feelings about this young man. His ability was above and beyond all in his realm. Had he remained healthy, he would have been without peer. His story makes me realize how blessed I really am, but at the same time how the wrath of fate can be so cruel. We were denied the majic of one of the best ever to pick up the six strings. But his will...his will to continue without self pity. He is a giant among men and a reminder, a reminder to never take anything for granted. Jason Becker the guitar player...I revere. Jason Becker the man....I adore, respect and love.

Vizron Creative Media Yes but, his ability is still among those in his realm, for sure. He's one of the healthiest people alive with ALS, and one of the longest living, being not only alive, but thriving, almost 30 years after his diagnosis. I don't think Jason needs anyone's pity, but I'm sure he'd love your support. His newest album, Triumphant Hearts, is coming out now, and from the songs I've heard so far, it's incredible. But I'm not surprised. That's Jason Becker; An incredible inspiration of what the human being can achieve when they put their mind and their soul and their focus into something and don't let go no matter what. I'm so glad he's alive and on this earth and I can't wait to get Triumphant Hearts.🌎💛

Hi Folks. This is Dan, Jason's long-time keyboardist and coproducer/engineer. (2:08). A couple of clarifications: The first song is "Showtime", a DLR song co-written by Jason. The second song at 2:08 is Primal, from Jason's album "Perspective". The crunchy guitar chords there are one of the last things Jason ever played on guitar. Although Steve Perry does appear on the song doing a kind of chant in the middle, the lead vocal is actually Raz Kennedy, though yes he does sound a lot like Steve!

I just found Jason Becker. And he is an inspiration to me. I am 32, legally blind, have arthritis, as well as bronchiactisis. I have laid concrete, been a landscaper, was a commercial transport mechanic for 10 years, have been a musician for just over 10 years, and am working on my degree in counselling. I plan on starting my own practice, and use music to influence my work. Never give up on a dream, unless you have found a better one to follow!

@@tednugentlives God gave him a talent, but his hard work made him one of the best guitar players on the planet. Nobody takes a guitar and starts playing like he was just like that.

To know that you are destined to be huge, are onto something great, admired by thousands of people and incredibly talented.. and to have it all taken away from you, is probably one of the cruelest things I've ever seen. It tore my heart apart when I saw him crying in this video. Knowing you have so much to give, and not being able to give it. Jason, you are and always will be the best.

I am crying... tears of joy. I owe Jason, not only as a guitarist, as a human being. Throughout years of depression, one of the things that kept me going was the inspiration that Jason radiates. Thank you so much Jason!

I cried so hard watching this movie. Jason is such an exceptional Person. I love him so much

Watch this movie and see one of the best guitar players of all time. What a great film and inspiring person.

God, I cried like a baby... So sad, he´s a hero

In ‘86 I can remember watching Jason and Marty Friedman playing as “Cacophony” at the NAMM Show in Anaheim. Standing 3 feet from Jason in a small room I could see what a massively talented and mind blowing guitarist he was. Looking back I was so fortunate to see him at the beginning of his climb to the top of modern rock guitar. God bless you Jason always.

If Jason could still play today, i think there is no doubt he would be one of the best that ever was, being that good at the age he was is unbelievable. His story is so heartbreaking yet so inspiring, and i hope he goes on to create even more fantastic music, Jason Becker is truly an amazing musician and such an inspiration

Its amazing to me that someone can be such a prodigy and be so strong at the same time. Such an inspiration~

When I listen to Jason Becker I'm like, "What the BECK was that?"

So much innocence, love, humor and talent in his eyes... I have nothing but pure love and respect towards that guy. This never should have happened to him.

Mr. Becker. I love you with all my heart. Im 38 and you have been in my life since i can remember my dad air guitaring your solos on DLR's album. Dude I love you.

There are no words to describe the emotions you feel after watching this. I was lucky enough to interview Jason on my college radio station in NJ in the late 80’s. We were both kids, but his playing was generations ahead of the curve.

Jason Becker is one of the all time greats that is for sure. What an amazing musician and person!

Thank you for being born, Jason. Thank you for your music and inspiration.

The look on anguish on his face at 2:34, heartbreaking.

If this gets to Jason or not, I am in complete humility. I have been a guitarist/singer/songwriter for over 30 years. I've never been near the stature that Jason holds, but my issues as a musician are nothing. Jason, you are an inspiration that should be cherished deeply and forever.

Jason Becker is the saint of all playing quitar music, we love him and pray for him, Donna

This movie moved me very deeply...seeing the incredible courage, fortitude, and perseverance of Jason Becker, who is one of the most remarkable human beings of all time.

Incredibly inspiring. Best money I have spent on a movie in a long time! Well done!

Jason will never die. His body may leave this earth, but his music and his lessons will live on forever. He is unique, talented and special, a true man and a inspiration for anyone, musicians or not, to know that when you love something nothing can stop you. Long live JB. :)

Jason Becker is and will always remain a Guitar God Legend

He's still here cause only a soul like his could teach so much to this world! Genious is not enough, noody is so fucking geniuos and wise at the same time. Thank you Jason for all the light you bring to this fucked world.

Jason Becker is a legend. On every level. Guitar or otherwise! Such an inspiration. All the best to you, Jason. x

that one moment where his eyes are closed then he suddenly opens them....straight to the soul. fooking genius

The guitar on "Drop in the Bucket" gives me chills everytime I hear it.Godspeed Jason!

God bless you, Jason Becker!... and let He cure you and get you once again to all of us on the stage, for the glory of His name !... ♥

i don't want to cry...but

just went to see it. me and other 2 strangers in the cinema. I smiled at times but tears got on the way at many moments! what a hero! what a man! what a talent! what and inspiration! Recomend it big time! wonderful touching documentary for music lovers and anyone else!!!

God bless Jason Becker and his family. You are the most brave of men I have ever seen. I pray for a cure one day, and it finds you sir, your inspiration has touched many, and your talent/ God given gift has touched millions. May God bless you and your family.

I heard the interview with Jason Becker on CBC's "As it Happens" yesterday. What a remarkable person this man is, not because of what he did when he was well, but because of what he is doing right now. A true inspiration. Like most I wish I had a magic wand to repair Jason, and Clive Burr for that matter. But spiritually I believe Mr. Becker has a mission on this earth - a job to do, and he's doing it. Keep it up dude.

THE BEST OF EVER! he has had in few years what every musician acquires after so many years of study...he has known in full the music...he has had a gift...we have a gift having him Jason is here still, its music is here still...we can thank only for this

I never listened to Jason Becker before, until I met my boyfriend. And honestly, One of the best I ever heard. I thought he was such a talented guitarist! This is such an amazing story, because he still tries to play music and doesn't give up! His story is inspiring to me, he is so talented and may God be with him and his family

think of how many people take simple mobility for granted. life is such a precious and fragile gift.

I'm going to be straight up when I say that Jason Becker and his drive makes me seriously emotional. I love the guitar and everything about this silly instrument. For him to be the same and have it taken away, only to keep pushing on at 10,000 times the effort.. True Passion can't be killed. I wish I could shake his hand.

I saw the movie last night and I got tears in my eyes. He was and is the greatest guitar player of all times and I would give everything to se him play again. Why him of all people :-(

One of the most inspirational people in my life and I have never met him. Jason, thank you

My favorite documentary ever. Met him at the premier. Amazing musician ...and that's an understatement.

Outstanding!!! Jason inspire us so much , not even his amazing music but his amazing history and fighiting too for sure!

Thank you, Jason. I watched this and your story has and continues to inspire me. You are more than a masterful musician -- you are a hero to many people. Your story is one I will tell my future children.

considering how young Jason was when he became sick and how much he achived just in that short time, i cant stop wondering about how insanely good he would have become if that didn't happend, and also then taking in consideration what he have achived the past 20years even after becoming sick..

Jason is the reason I picked up the Guitar when I was 16 and now I'm making a living out of it! Hearing his Music and seeing the Videos was probably one of the most important things that ever happend to me... thank you Jason! You don't know me but I owe you a lot! ;-) Peace Fabian

just watched the movie. and cried and cried and criet, then laughed and cried some more! What a legend!! amazing.

What An Incredible Talent. We all should be grateful for our good health...Jason is a constant reminder of courage and character....

this is something that it needs to be done jason for ever , the best, a true musician he is someone who really deserves it

Your the best 😉🙂 Jason Becker!!! Rock on 🎵🎶. I hope he gets into the R N R hall of Fame for his genius,his courage!!! He is not dead yet ! He is still kick ass!!! Still alive with a beautiful mind. True inspiration

Man... this is the only video in the whole world which had made me cry... :( long live Jason, the best guitar player ever existed.

I was fighting back manly tears just watching the trailer. That happens when I watch Jason. Can't wait for the movie.

Perpetual Burn is the best and the more beautifull cd ever created by a guitarist. Jason Becker still alive and will be forever. Thank You Jason, for make my day better when I listen your songs.

JUST WATCHED THIS TONIGHT AS PART OF A FILM FESTIVAL IN SANTIAGO, CHILE. IT IS TRULY A LIFE LESSON, REALLY INSPIRATIONAL, GREAT WORK!!!! JASON'S THE BEST.

I WILL see this jason becker is my favorite guitarrist, not only that but because of all his beautiful songs he is one of the best musicians ever. jason is a inspiration in my life i'm so glad the doctors were wrong and thankfully he is alive to this day, STILL MAKING MUSIC! wich is incredible. god bless you jason, i were rich i would send alot of money to help him & his family

Jason you are the best man. You have given me so much courage and strength. Thank You. God Bless You.

Awesome friends to open that door again! Much love Jason!

You see, for me Jason, Being an actual seizure sufferer for the last 10 years and with all those weird and experimental meds resulting in me being an actual heart attack victim as well 3 years ago. So I kind of know what its like to be helpless on a smaller scale. I can't even imagine what you must have gone through. But because of you Jason, you have helped inspire me to keep on going too. Watching you never give up, you have been an inspiration to me. So Jason, you have my support to the end!

God bless your family & especially Jason! There needs to be more home health care for ALS patients.

I cried. Happens everytime i watch this. I would have loved to see Jason outshine all of these new guitar guitarists like Tim and tosin. In a recent interview Jason Becker said he was sad that he couldn't pick up the guitar and try to play these people songs. But these people wouldn't exist in the music world without him

amazing person. God Bless you Jason....HUGE fan since the 1980's!

There really is a special place in heaven for people like this, my heart goes out to anyone effected by this disease

BEST GUITARIST EVER...LEGEND...HERO !!!! GOD BLESS YOU...

Is this documentary ready? People who disliked are heartless... They'll never know how much power u have to have inside u to keep going as Jason did. Greetings from Greece.

I cried. That man is a living legend beyond comprehension. I would do anything to give him is movements back. A life so young destroyed.

Jason Becker is a living Miracle.

This guy still has a sense of humour. Love it

I've been ignorant to Jason's music forever. I've heard his name mentioned and I knew about his condition but today his solo album came up my Spotify suggestions. I put it on and immediately was in awe of his playing - considering the year and age too... such an awesome guitar player. So happy to have found his music.

Seriously, Jason Becker is such an inspiration as a human being, not only musically but his willing to live and his strength inspires me beyond words, what an exceptional person he is

What an inspiration and reminder of how fragile we are. Jason, you really make me say thanks for everything.

Jason is awesome, he looks really good and healthy nowadays, what a legend!

My. Hero.

I had forgotten how long ago this was! This was the first project I ever donated to. (I think it was on Kickstarter...) He'll be 54 in July. :)

2:18 That look of sheer determination and will power just pierces through the screen.

I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet this man. Although he cannot speak, his presence and smile are so communicative. The movie really inspired me to practice the guitar more and just to appreciate the life that I've been given. I hope that someday i can be half as good as he was (is). Thank You Jason. Thank You.

This is so unfair. My heart is broken seeing such a talented man suffer like this !

Not many trailers can make you cry. Can't wait to see this.

One of the best Guitar Legend!

Jason Becker, a man that can't move a muscle, and is still the strongest man alive... Simply sends a message to all, life is worth living, just live it!

this man/god only deserves the best. he is such a big influence to all of us, even people who doesn't even play an instrument. a true hero

I can't wait to see the movie, Jason Becker is my hero and a living legend.

without words.... jason becker is the best

I think the message here is: "there is never a dead end in life while you are breathing. Thank you Jason your will is strongest than everything life can throw up to you! You are an inspiration a model, a great human being!

I heard some of your songs a few years back, but never knew much about you. I was shocked and saddened to find that you had gotten sick. But here you are, with a youtube account and a movie about your life! Your music is mind blowing and you are true inspiration. Living legend!

Jason inspired me since 1988. he´s still one of the bests,EVER !!!!

he's an inspiration for every guitarist and simple man in the world!!!!

ive never looked into his music... but this is incredible... a supreme virtuoso..

Not only does the man continue to write music and communicate while being unable to move, but he's also kept his sense of humor. I think there is a God, and his name is Jason Becker.

I think one of the saddest things is, he has so much to give to the world that he still does and there are so many people who don't and never will, and they will live to be 90 years old with relatively good health. thats the irony of humanity, not everybody tries to be anything worth living for.

My biggest influence! He went from the greatest guitar player to the strongest human being ever. My eyes tear up when I see this. Nothing could stop this man from making great music!

Jason, you inspire me and i guess thousands of others. i'm a great fan of you music. keep doing what you do best... cheers...

I hope in 30 years,we can say."HE IS STILL HERE !!" all the best for the BEST
