Gary Moore, SRV & Hendrix have all left, Page & Clapton would struggle to hit a clean E Chord these days . So I agree.

Don’t say “possibly”. Johnny is ridiculous man. His lines are clean, on-point harmonically, rhythmically, and tonally. He does what he does better than others.

That back line is just unstoppable. What a joy to play with such a tight group.

His playing is so slick & clean, without a fault and fluid as hell! Undoubtedly one of the best guitarist on earth.

I'm sure we can all agree that this fellas playing puts a smile on your face and a bruise on your ego 🤘 Also one of the nicest humans on this planet, such a humble bloke and easily up in the lists with the best on the instrument, what an absolute mega dude.

Wanna talk about underrated? The hell with athletes this man is the GOAT. Unreal. And a great human. Great role model!

Johnny is right up there with the very best guitarists on the planet. This guy can literally play it all.

GO JOHNNY GO!!

Monster band! All of them!!!

There is something magic about a TELE in the right hands. YES INDEED!!!

JOHNNY BE THE MAN.

Johnny could do an informercial for whatever supplement he's on during this performance. He's bringing it big time!! Yes, yes he had to take an intro break, who could blame 'em. This is like the part in Back to the Future, but this is the real life version!!!

🤟🤟🤟🤟so fun to listen,though i can never ever play like him 😁🤟🤟johnny the man ❤️❤️

This dude is incredible!

Absolutely brilliant players all around! Fantastic!

I came here because Steve Vai told us about him. Incredible!

I'm a guitarist, just come here after watching a Clapton vid. To my mind there is no doubt who is God. The Big Man.

He is sensational. Love his guitar. Thanks.

Johnny can really play that guitar like he owns it, and the band is amazing. God bless you guys. C Wayne Brock. California

Country is the flamenco of the electric guitar in the sense that it’s _incredibly_ difficult and taxing to play, requiring a lot of stamina, but that they also both squeeze out _every possible sound_ from their instruments, and sometimes in the most ingenious and resourceful of ways. Country players are definitely a different breed.

While reading some comments regarding the late great Danny gatton some folks mentioned this gentleman.i was not familiar..thank you I am now.impressive to say the least.

Excellent!

Rather undersold as heaven , everything good comes from heaven

They all sound great.

This guy is as good as Guthrie Govan. Impressive playing and creativity!

Jhonny . You are the next DANNY GATTON. Rock'on !

Best picker in Nashville, woth the sweetest wife..

Outstanding performance! 👍👍👍👍

Amazing! One of the greats right there

Boaaaahhhh.....High End!!! Masterclass

OHH MY! Love yaa big bro!!!!

good gawd!

Jesus Christ ! There only awesome musicians in this band . I luv it

Like to see him and Jon 5 together

😎🎶🎶👍👍

His playing sound very 90's and reminds me a bit of Scott Henderson's "Dog Party" album ..

Best player I ever heard so fast.

Please Johnny, do a session with Scotty Anderson

I think he figured out the thumb pick😂😂😂😂 what a savage

Who is that bass player? MAN!!

Just kick ass, all around. The only part of his playing that is about average is hit tapping but you gotta love that too. He's stooping down to everyone's level in that technique but he brings it back to his chicken picken up the ying yang!

@LosoIAm

4 жыл бұрын

IMHO, he is not stooping; rather, throwing in something into the mix to throw the listeners off balance (I almost fell off my chair laughing) - who would have thought tapping in the middle of chicken picking?

I love the way Johnny plays : Barnyard Butt-Fuckers...

I wanna see Johnny play with Guthrie Govan

Love the accent. His guitar playing isn't bad either.

@@andrewpayne6295 Instead of holding a pick between the pointer finger and thumb, a thumb pick has a ring attached. You slide it over your thumb and you can have your pointer finger free, amongst other benefits. Country players use it a lot, often with similar picks added to their pointer finger and/or others. Very hard to get accustomed to.

Tommy can tear it up on the electric guitar. I got to see him in Saint Louis, MO a few years back and it was absolutely phenomenal watching him do what he does best.

I like that guitar but $1,650 is to steep for me. But he can make a $100 Indio sound good.

Sure his name isn't Johnny be Good??

No. Just... ...no. Both are great, but SRV was all about soul and feel, and plus he had a terrific singing voice and stage presence. Johnny Hiland is more about speed, flash and mixing disparate styles. Very innovative. But comparing SRV to Johnny H isn't even an "apples to oranges" comparison. More like tomatoes to pineapples. Couldn't be more different.

Disrespectful of the highest order. Shame on you.

He really is something, I dont under stand it. He could draw a crowd if they would help him out a little. He needs some singers maybe, some girls that can all sing lead too. You know mix it up a little . .

If that doesn't inspire a kid to pick up a guitar, nothing will.

All you former 5 and 6 night a week bar band bums like i used to be. Back me up if this sounds Familiar to you.... You happen to have one of these guutar nukes in your band (not quite JH but really hot) was it my Imagination or did they ALWAYS PLAY TOO LOUD? Just like almost every JH live gig i've ever heard. Terrible mix!!! And its just about always because of him!!! These Hot rod fighter pilots just have NO clue about what makes the overall sound coming off the stage sound better or worse. In their defense, I honestly dont think they're listening. If you could drill down into their brain they might be thinking, "i aint no sound engineer!! Im a guitar wonder from space, so shut up and leave me alone!!!!" Just like beautiful, spoiled girls, WHAT WOULD WE DO WITHOUT'EM??? You go head on Johnny... You're AMAZING ENOUGH to say, "The hell with a mix, just listen to this!!!!💥🎶🎵🎶
