In the fourth episode of our guitar shred battles we take a look at two guitar shred virtuosos who have collaborated to produce two fantastic fusion albums. Greg Howe and Richie Kotzen are most certaintly guitar fan favourites and with similar playing styles, at least in the 80s, this one might be too close to call!

Two great players who ironically kind went on two opposite journeys. Greg Howe started much more rock oriented and Ritchie started much more sophisticated. Ritchies first albums are very elegant playing. Later he went towards the more rocky part with his telecasters and all. In reverse, greg moved more towards where Ritchie used to be. Both of them are great, but I like early Ritchie better than I like early Greg and late Greg better than I liked late Ritchie.

In the final analysis I must go with Mr. Richie Kotzen as the winner. Both of these guys are INSANE talents. They are both MASTERS of all genres but it all comes down to hair raising highs and lower than recordable lows and ultimately SOUL. Funny that in my mind the white guy wins based on pure emotion/soul/groove. It's hard enough to say that one is better than the other let alone that I like one better than the other... impossible decisions.

The fact is that they made two albums together, and Greg smoked Richie on both of them. On the Project album Richie's solos are a disorganized mess. Richie did some beautiful sweep picking early in his career, but Greg is the greatest player ever signed to the Shrapnel label, and he has arguably had the best career of any fusion player, ever. If you doubt me, listen to the back-to-back albums Uncertain Terms and Parallax. No one could touch Greg in his prime.

Actually to say who the best would be like who has the better soul or spirit music is delivered by emotions and then formulated and translated to the finger board different emotions different responses translates to different sound and deliveries when you play guitar or any instrument it's what you're feeling from you're soul and all souls are different Stevie Ray Vaughn for example doesn't have the same souls as these talents Garry Moore as well Steve vai soul is different Eric Gayles all delivers music interpretation differently so who's the best? Is like saying who has the better soul.

I'll start by saying that making comparisons between musicians of this level is stupid. That said, if we're talking about phrasing, almost no one comes close to Greg Howe. He is one of the greatest phrase writers in the modern guitar world. Unattainable. The difference is very noticeable. I repeat: for me music is not competition but rather the exchange of ideas and experiences. Both incredible musicians. I love both .
@chrisreyes823
@chrisreyes823 4 месяца назад
How stupid is that. Showcasing Kotzen when he was 20 to a recent video of Howe...kotzen isn't interested or doesn't rely on his guitar chops as much as he does songwriting. Howe probably has the edge on his guitar prowess, but Kotzen is by far the complete package with his amazing voice and songwriting...Even Kotzen would give the nod to Howe on guitar...He doesn't care about that stuff at all

@sneakcr3144 Год назад
@@donniedonnie639 So I play bass. I played for like 10 years profesionally , and studied fusion/jazz before that, including howe and kotzen. Howe's album's had a huge inspiration(among others ofc) when it came to baselines and improvisation(even though he is a guitarists, I like to learn for other insturments aswell). In the meantime I was very fortunate to play with guitar players that are at the same technical and musical level as Howe and Kotzen, and I can tell you for sure, that there is a reason why Howe was such a huge inspiration for them and not Kotzen. Howe's albums became classics in the guitar world because of the guitar play and phrasing. Kotzen was allways seen as a very technical guy and a extremely good voice, but on the guitar side he didnt had the impact howe had. I am not saying that as musicians , one is better than the other...that would be wrong, cuz both ahd in their respective styles great compositions. But Howe had a bigger impact on guitar specifically...so just how you can say that Kotzen has a better voice than howe which is obvious, you can see that Howe's phrasing level(especially over complex harmony) is more fluid. He says much more than kotzen on the guitar.Even if you listen to solos on Tilt, Groove Epidemic and Present Moment..you can clearly hear that howe is connected with the groove and says alot while being technical..while kotzen is technical but chaotic and very rockish in hsi approach.You can literally bounce your head on greg's solos...
@donniedonnie639
@donniedonnie639 Год назад
@@sneakcr3144 I'm not arguing Kotzen is better than Howe. My argument is Howe has nothing over on Kotzen. Richie went a different path with song writing and singing. Greg kept chasing rock/fusion/instrumental (mostly). Both were equally gifted with guitar and that was their original foundation, but both went different directions. Go back and watch their instructional videos from the beginning era. Neither has really taken their technical ability beyond that, however they have both taken their approach (and knowledge) to making music down different paths. Listen to Maragold where Howe has to fit his playing style to a more familiar format and then listen to Richie's recent music. You are not going to find Howe ahead of him. Everyone wants to compare two different things. The only way you can make a competition out of it (as everyone seems to want) is to have them play the exact same thing and grade accordingly on that. I enjoy both and like the direction they have taken their music.

Hey. Everyone listen to Greg's SELF-TITLED debut album before you make an informed decision. I love Richie too but NO ONE to my ears has the chops Greg displayed in his DEBUT. Of the thousands of instrumentals and hundreds of guitarists I've heard since then NO ONE sounds like Greg did in that debut. He drastically shifted his direction and style shortly afterwards but listen and tell me Greg's debut isn't something truly special. You talk about GROOVE? Epic chops? Melody for days? Nothing before or since to my ears sounds like Greg's debut. It is astounding and very rare from what I can tell. Check it out and thank me later. Greg has never played like that or sounded anything like he did before he went the fusion/jazzy route, he was all full-steam-ahead blues infused hard-rock/metal. And one can certainly hear some of the best examples of guitar instrumental hard rock on his debut. Though he was nestled at Shrapnel next to Vinnie Moore and Tony MacAlpine, Greg's debut was as far from neoclassical shred(which I still adore to this day) as one could get. To this day Greg's debut is one I have on my essential instrumental guitar playlist. Kotzen is great at what he does but the aforementioned guys like Vinnie, Tony MacAlpine, Becker, and Friedman were KILLING it before RK came on the scene. Am I biased? Yes. But listen to Greg's debut and get back to me. 🤘

​@@donniedonnie639It's all subjective of course. I just am pointing out how DIFFERENT Greg's Shrapnel debut was/is. Still haven't heard anyone with Greg's style on the debut. RK's stuff is great too and his Shrapnel debut is damn good to my ears. Stylistically I just think Greg's debut is so different than the "neo-classical shred" stuff out at that time. Even more traditional players like Satch and Vai at that time sounded nothing like Greg. The sound he got on that debut still resonates in my ears three decades later. It's a shame so few have heard it. I had a hell of a time finding it for years online. At least until RU-vid and the streaming services proliferated. I'm talking about "The Pepper Shake", "Super Unleaded", "Kick It All Over", "Land of Ladies" "Little Rose" et al from ' 88. Gonna go back and listen to RK' s Shrapnel instrumental debut now. Maybe I missed something? I know both of them separately and together are far advanced nowadays. I know RK is a hell of a singer too. I just still mostly prefer instrumental guitar. Always have. Always will. Lol

Kotzen , without a doubt and twice on Sunday the greatest legato player alive since the passing of Holdsworth and Vanhalen

Ja ja ja Esta comparacion es ridicula e injusta.Obvio que Howe la gana por demasiada ventaja.Kotzen es como un jovencito aprendiendo a tocar.La comparativa hubiera sido con Paul Gilbert o Shawn Lane.

Greg Howe seems lost in a mess of technique, Richie always sounds musical and melodic, but they're both good.

LOLZ. Your perception has you believing the opposite of reality. Kotzen is all technique, a flurry of unmelodic noise. Howe actually plays music while soloing.

I think Ritchie Kotzen picked like 3 notes in that demo. No comparison to Greg Howes mastery. Play guitar and youll find out
