careless whisper is the improv melody during the transition. they quote the inspector gadget theme in another live performance of this song. LOVE these guys xD
Agreed - these guys are top notch. There are couple of other references in this track too: from 4:04-4:12 Guthrie plays the old Star Trek theme, and at 7:16 there’s a bit of If You Go Down to the Woods Today.
Thanks for the reaction to my choice.Glad you enjoyed it. 3 great musicians,but Guthrie Govan is probably one of the greatest guitarists on the planet and can play anything,but always with feel which i love,He as played with G3 with Satriani and Vai,but never gets the recognition he deserves in the wider public,but he his revered in the guitar world. He is currently the main guitarist for Hans Zimmer which says alot. I think. Im sure you will enjoy listening to any of his playing as he can play in so many styles and he is such a modest nice person. Always enjoy your reactions,thanks again Stuart.
@@PachuauZ Absolutely. Guthrie could easily be referred to as the absolute best "rock/jazz fusion" quitarist in the world. He plays so effortlessly. It's almost like he can play without even trying.
Marco Minnemann the drummer is German and plays alot with Satriani as does Bryan Beller the bassist who is American.Guthrie Govan is English.As a guitarist and big music lover im sure you will enjoy discovering more in your free time,thanks again Stuart
The Aristocrats consists of Guthrie Govan on guitar, Bryan Beller on bass, and Marco Minnemann on drums. All 3 musicians are at the top of their game with their respective instruments. In addition to several live albums they have also 4 studio albums under their name, where for each album each member writes 3 songs for the band. Their live shows are extremely entertaining both in musicianship and technical skills, and none of the songs are played exactly the same compared to the studio version, in the sense that each song has a basic outline that they follow but within there are lots of opportunities for improvisation.
that bit where you said it reminded you of something - it reminded me of something from Joe Satraini's surfing with the alien - I think - memory might be playing tricks though
Really good? I'm minded to think The Aristocrats are the BEST three piece instrumental band out there. You're right, it's good to see musicians having a good time, a lot of jazz and fusion players tend to be a little too serious at times.
