1:35 Marty Plays that Stravinsky/ Debussy style lick, they start harmonizing. Jason plays a variation and then they harmonize that too. What a duo

Jason's just so fluid across the strings it's unreal. Marty has this incredible ability to find the unexpected outside of the box notes that fit so flawlessly.

Marty's playing hits me right in the heart.

In my grand aunt's ancient salon, I discovered 78 rpm celluloid records with instrumental guitar music from Hawaii ... when Marty Friedman emerged on the scene years later, I recognized that style :)

This shows off their musical genius. One lays down the most precious solo over some cords and the other one immediately plays the chords in the perfect rhythm under it it’s just mind blowing how good they worked together. Truly musical geniuses!

thank god man! someone saved this video.. i really wanted to see jason and marty being together in one video..

Wow. Just watching these two brilliant guitarist makes me want to get my guitar out and jam. Awesome. 🎸⚡️💥👍

Marty and jason is a soo good combination in playing together.. Good harmony.. Marty give a good feeling and soo melody.. Jason good in harmony with swep and make the melody hear soo fantastic..

Jason's playing was so inspiring, he and Marty have the Stevie Ray thing where the music just flows out of them like an endless vessel

Marty's part always make Jason smile. Prety sure Jason has a good day at the time.

Such a gorgeous and inspiring soul Jason is. Even when supporting his friends. That’s what life is all about. Strength isn’t from physical form. It is from spiritual form. May God bless them both. Guitar and life heroes

I hope the people in that room realize the magic they witnessed!

They were both smiling and having fun. This is great. Inspired playing from Marty and Jason. Love you Jason. Met you at Backstage in Houston, Texas. You were really nice.

I want to know the chord progression they jammed to at around the 2:14 mark. I also heard that was a common 'game' they would play with each other where one would play a chord progression while occasionally slipping odd chords to intentionally attempt to throw off the other player. I recall Jason stating that it was nearly impossible to throw Marty off because he would always manage to make any note harmoniously match any/every chord that was behind him, in spite of key!
