Jan Akkerman Skydancer 2016 Beverwijk 

I've been watching Jan Akkerman play for over 40 years, and two things haven't changed. One, he can be erratic on stage, having tuning problems, broken strings, wandering attention, and so on. Two, he routinely erupts in moments of true brilliance and beauty far beyond any other rock guitar hero. This tune, for example, has an ever-changing chord progression of astonishing originality and harmonic sophistication, somehow blending European classicism with a Wayne Shorter-like jazz sensibility, and here, just a touch of disco without being cloying.

Легендаран је је,пола живота га слушам

Akkerman at his best goes beyond music and becomes the voice of the best qualities of human nature.

Jan, one of the greatest ever!

And while the band began, Jan was warming up :)

Geweldig mooi gespeeld precies zoals op de plaat

grazie bellissimo e unico

wonderful !!!

Unbelievable,still the greatest!

Wow. Still awesome then and now.

Ha fijn, kan ik eindelijk 's uitzoeken hoe Jan dit stuk speelt. Wacht ik al 20 jaar op. Begint in ieder geval in een open Em-stemming.

For fucks sake how long for a pro to tune up.

Het gebruikelijke chaotische gepiel.😫😫

Every guitar porn begins with foreplay-the tuning part :)

Why is he wearing that bib? Maybe because he's fixin' to go eat some greasy barbecue after the event is over.
