+Yogen Grg public eye still has no clue he is. try to tell everyone that he's James LaBrie's guitarist and then be prepared to follow up with an explanation on who dream theater is lol
It's amazing how the song reaches some kind of climax at around 03:15 solely by chords. That's some great stuff on composing and phrasing, which is what music is all about.
I've listened to this thousands of times and still have no idea on how to compose these kind of beautiful phrases and riffs. Some of the best phrasing and feel I've seen.
@@junito1957 No, there is no guarantee at all for that. Loads of people have put hours a day , day after day, in several years, without even approaching this level.
Each guitarist has unique abilities, others are better at some things more than others and it does not mean that they are bad, but that everyone plays, as their ability allows, once you understand this, you stop getting frustrated by listening to others. "better than you" 😉
I'd say that as far as the guitar actually goes, his take on it has more musical sounds, I can think about his stuff as a listener and a guitar player in the way I prefer
Most gifted all around lead rock player on Earth IMO. When taking everything into account...feel, speed, accuracy, ability to compose memorable melodies, phrasing. He's honestly just the best in this kind of melodic shredding rock category, whatever you'd like to call it. Of course he isn't who he is without Petrucci, Satch, Timmons, etc...but man he just has it all. It's unreal.
I agree entirely - I know you can hear the influences you mentioned above (all of which I like - they're influential for good reasons!), but he also adds his own style, and like you also said his melodies are phenomenal, phrasing peerless, and actual chops awesome. I find watching him difficult as his technique does not appear graceful - but let there be no doubt as to it's effectiveness! Just amazing - one of the best all round guitarists on the planet.
This is one of the most emotional instrumentals in my opinion and you can truly feel the pain in the story that is being told. Amazing execution and interpretation!
2 weeks ago my little 2 yo cat, my little fur ball of love, died because of complications with her FeLV. Yeah, it still hurts... a lot. Music always helps us let these feelings flow. Thanks for the 2 years I got to spend with you, Christie! It wasn't long, but it was special, it was awesome, you're awesome and will forever keep on being awesome in my heart! I'll always love you!
Just found out about this guy from Spotify. Definitely soaking up everything I can from him from now on! Truly amazing phrasing, emotion, and that TONE!!!!
Petrucciano..? Satrianiano..? Dite cio che volete. Perche ognuno si ispira ad un genere. Ma questo è Marco Sfogli. Uno dei piu grandi e genuini talenti della chitarra di oggi. Per me è un grandissimo!
3:33 Just... wow, so many years, so much longing and so much hurt... perfectly tied together and transformed into something beautiful that expresses all I never could, in a single phrase. A single phrase without a word. Grazzie Marco!
A me piace Moltissimo l'Esecuzione... Sound al Top come sempre! Marco e' in grado di far suonare bene qualsiasi Chitarra e qualsiasi Ampli, altro che suono"zanzaroso"...
Italians are the very best melodic Solo Player!!!...Satriani, Vai, di Meola, Gambale and Petrucci (italian roots), Mancuso and many more... and of course Marco Sfogli !
Impossível algumas pessoas não terem gostado do vídeo… musica muito bem feita , com melodias fantásticas , bem executada … perfeito !!!! Um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo !
Marco never losing sight of melody, while playing some really challenging phrases he still keeps an eye on melodic form. So many other just shred endless techniques and you've forgotten the tube in 2 minutes, but like this piece, that hook is still ringing as I write this. He does have the Satch touch in that respect. I personally think he is the best in his field and will be for a while.
Satch. Because for whatever reason his playing reaches parts of me no others can. A single note can put a chill up my spine. He's had me since I first head flying in a blue dream. But Marco is close. @@veilofreality
Damn, how come I've never heard of this man before. I just found out about him from Intervals' YT channel when some guy mentioned how Marco's style is evident in Aaron's playing. Wish I heard Marco before! This is great!
Guys flow and tempo is fucking perfection the way he strikes every note with such a soulful search is unreal melody’s are out of this world better than satriani
Marco è un chitarrista immenso. Perché, oltre alla sua enorme capacità tecnica, i suoi brani raccontano una storia!....Frasi piene di linee melodiche fantastiche e surreali ma senza dubbio efficaci perché arrivano dritte al cuore. Marco riesce ad emozionarmi ogni volta che lo ascolto
I can't even put into word how much this song has affected me. It is so wonderfully composed, with such tasteful guitar phrasing. I'm absolutely in love with your style. New guitar idol.
