Tim And Pete's Guitar Show #7 feat. Michael Thompson 

Legend! Now we want Huff and Landau please,,

The only thing I miss about recording in LA is when Michael was on the session, -best attitude, best spontaneous ideas, best tones, -just positive energy. Priceless! He definitely plays better while chewing gum :)

This episode should've been 4 hours long. I wanted to listen to all the stories! Brilliant people!

I think these episodes are so important to document a level of excellence and experience that guitarists like Tim, Michael Thompson and Landau, etc. have upheld for years. I sometimes get concerned that some of the current players aren't at this level, which may be unfair but.... Then there is Pete Thorn and a group of other players that are carrying the torch. Sometimes you will get a scenario that is similar to a Xerox of a Xerox of a Xerox and you forget how much better the original image was because you just get used to the degrading over time. These videos will be amazing references for future players that want to be as good as they can, they will see how high the bar has been set. Cheers!

Proper musicians having fun trading tales and licks! Nothing more enjoyable, thank-you guys!

I so wish they would of continued with this outstanding series. But I cherish each and every episode they gave us and return to watch them quite often and always learn something new again. Thank you Tim and Pete, thank you much! 😊

Tim's solo was without question the most inspiring imo.

It's a rare opportunity to watch musicians of this caliber in such an honest and candid setting: with mutual admiration and respect. Tim, Pete and Michael, you guys are inspiring!!

Wish I could give this vid 2 thumbs up. Had to watch again. We need more Tim and Pete show

I'm so buying the new Vibrato pedal.

It's great to watch how much fun Tim Pierce has when he plays - pure JOY ! ;)

OH man oh man! Was that fun and inspirational and informative and fun ...and did I mention how fun it was?!?!? Thank you all, so much for having such a good time and enjoying yourselves and appreciating each other and wonderful gorgeous sounds and as Steve Martin would say, superb note choicements! LOL

Off work this afternoon as its persisting down like usual in the sunny uk and watching this with a brew has cheered me up no end

Michael is such a cool person and great musician !

Awesome job! Thanks, so much, for taking all the time and energy to put this together. The show has become my "most look forward to." Couldn't ask for more.

Pete, this episode is groundbreaking! When he played that chord there was so much 90s nostalgia in it! Love it, thanks for this!

I have watched this a least 7 times! So much information ! Thanks guys, love the show! You have hit it dead on! Every episode it gets better

Thank you so much for the work you all do, I truly enjoy every episode.

This is, hands down, one of the most incredible and informative interviews I've seen in forever. So fantastic, seeing all three of you taking a pass at that solo. Feel free to do ten more with Michael! Though, they've all been great. Thank you, for doing these videos!

That was awesome. I love hearing the stories and watching their technique. Good for Pete to take the challenge! I also liked how he asked to hear each layer of effects separately. This video was fun to watch. Thanks!

What an inspiring episode. Thanks! The gear/patches breakdown, to the never before seen, three guitarists, one guitar, one sound, one track... So cool!

I just love watching the creative juices flow between you guys, and the absolute joy on Tim's face while improvising that solo is just freaking wonderful. Keep up the great work Pete and Tim.

I’ve watched this video so many times ... must be one of the best guitar videos online So much history and cool tips ... plus it’s just three bad asses chilling

What a treat this series is. Thank you so much guys

Thanks for letting me sit in. It's great listening to 3 master craftsmen talking about their art with the tidbits about the tools & mindsets involved. Thanks.

Great as usual! All three were great. You can feel the passion in everybody's playing.

Thanks for yet another of these installments! They're SO nice to watch :D

Michael Thompson...I remember when you had long hair. What a great talent in the studio.

To All of the people that were in this video, Thank You Very Much, I Learned A Bunch of things, And I enjoyed that everyone played a guitar that was not their guitar, with high action.. that shows people that you have the Talent to do what you do best, Play guitar,

What a great room for us to be a fly on the wall. LOTS of talent, knowledge and history there. So awesome to see these 3 together.

Oh my god. Best episode ever! Tim is a pure delight to watch play! His smile makes it such an event. I liked Pete’s solo the best, but watching Tim makes me wish I was there. Wow, I learned SO much from Michael! What an amazing video! I can’t decide what my favorite part was!

Tim and Pete I absolutely love these shows! Please keep them coming. Not only are they all inspiring but extremely entertaining and very informational. Plus they have also opened my eyes and ears to new artist and new gear! Thank you guys for all that you do! -Jimmy

By far my favorite episode. There is a wealth of information and 3 very different yet very insightful perspectives. Nice work guys!

Great Video, as usual! It would be great if, for the "next heroes", we may have as follows: 1) Mike Landau 2) Steve Lukather 3) Jay Graydon 4) Dean Parks 5) Larry Carlton 6) Paul Jackson Jr and many others :)

Beautiful vid gentleman. Absolutely blisteringly raw playing from three masters. To see the joy on Tim's face as he was playing was good for this old guys soul. Make a joyful noise; the reason we play.

You guys hit it out of the park with this one!! Tim you killed it! Michael thank-you for giving up your years of tonequesting with us, You truly are a TONEMEISTER!! THANKS , do more of these going to other Tonesmiths houses/ studios love seeing all their shit. too cool.

Watching all 3 of these masters improvise on the fly at the end was the COOLEST PART! It's the essence of what makes these session-men great.

This was insane. The stories, the playing, the knowledge. I felt the energy translate through the screen! Michael has a profound ability to just pick an ambience that best suits the stylistic avenue of the piece of music and I think there is a lot to be said about that. Great episode, truly.

That modulating detuned chorus effect is so rich sounding. Humble musicians, too. Everyone left the egos at the door and just tore it up.Keep em coming! Thanks Tim and Pete

I am so glad I am not a TV addict. I'd never have seen this gem. This is such a better way to spend your spare time. Great video.

Another excellent and inspirational show!!! I appreciate what you guys do. It was just plain fun to watch and listen.

This was a legendary 41 minutes guys. Important to see how much thought and creativity goes into making ambient sounds usable and tasteful in a musical setting.

Nailed another one boys. I think everyone who plays, dreams of these situations where you can exchange ideas so freely. To see it done by top professionals and feel like your their hanging out is just nuts. Thank you

Great episode! I couldn't wait to watch this one when I saw it was with Michael Thompson. I always love his stuff. Congrats on your successful careers through the years.

More than ever.. the Tim and Pete show needs to do a compilation album with all the guests you've had. I would buy that in a minute.

Always watch using really good headphones to get the absolute out of the experience. I LOVE these shows!

Wow....this was something special!

so happy when these come out. you guys feel like my buddies

Totally awesome, you guys are an inspiration and incredibly entertaining to watch and hear. Thanks!

That was like watching 3 Jedi's banging heads with each other. Absolutely fantastic!

The best episode yet! Thanks for doing this......Makes my coffee taste great while listening to the pros!!! Inspired!

Man I just discovered this series. So much great info. Thank you guys so much. 🙌🏼

awesome "fireside chat". I love being a fly on the wall when musicians like this gather....the organized chaos in his home studio ....love it. Thanks for sharing Tim

Awesome as usual Pete. All you're solo's were great and it's always inspiring watching and listening to you.

I've watched this episode at least 25 times... One of the best guitar related interviews on the interweb .... Cheers

This is such a great show! Michael is an incredible musician and until now there hasn't been much content of these great players apart from gear demos. Its a real pleasure getting to hear about your careers and finally hearing answers to the questions I've always wondered about. It would be great to see an episode with James Harrah, another incredible studio player that is often overlooked!

Studio magic tricks~! So great to see and hear all these discussed in detail. Best guitar series on the planet~! Well Done~!

Michael and Pete's solos were the shit but when Tim started playing..man.. That just moved me. What a master. Thank you guys so much for this show, it is such a huge inspiration to keep learning.

the last 5 minutes of this video are the best. 3 great guitar players making up a solo each! love it.

My comment may not carry any weight but that was the best sit down conversation I've ever come across. Imagine you were sitting in a room full of friends who just happen to be the best at what they do, having a beer and just talking about the reasons we all play guitar. Now include topics that include some the best imaginations that have come down the pike. Wait a minute - that just happened except I wasn't actually in the room, and I don't really know these guys but this little video made me feel that way. Oh, by the way, I did get to have that beer though.

Wow, very cool! I loved Tim's off the cuff melodic sense and phrasing. He sounded rehearsed, what a pro! Michael seems like a real cool down to earth guy. What wealth of knowledge. A real gear nerd. His studio looks like a musicians hording warehouse with all sorts of weird decor. What a privilege to you have Pete to hang with guys like this. I love it!

Thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this!

Thank you guys , great stuff as usual , really enjoy watching these

What a wonderful lessons! Really appreciated you guys and modern technologies that made me watch this amazing video clip. Young guitar kids are so lucky because of living in a great world to learn everything through internet.

This is really awesome thanks guys!!! God Bless the 3 of you!!!

I have been burning up the web, looking for "guitar knowledge". These guys have it!! What a great session!!! Thanks and keep on rockin✌

Fantastic episode! The talent level in that room was exploding from the screen.

Absolutely great - it's really great watching guys just have fun and see that generations are brought together by music. The old(er?) guys are like big kids and excited still with music but have great knowledge and skill and Pete is mature and also a fabulous player and all with their connected interest in music - the world should learn from this attitude. Absolutely brilliant guys. Best episode yet. Keep in going.

Dan Huff will be perfect for your Show

This is the best show ever! And in each episode it gets better and better and better!!! Thanks a lot, Tim and Pete!!! :)

It Might Get Loud always pops into my head when thinking about guitars and guitar playing. This is right up there.

Wow!!!! That was amazing and that jam session at the end was epic. You guys are really knocking it out of the park with this series.

What more can I say Michael hits the exact spot for me as a musician. Creation of sounds that move you!! Great devotion to your craft guys. love it. Give me more!

With guys like Pierce and Thompson you really get a unique look into the many years of experience during the heydays of the music scene where it was still dominated by studios and producers and all it took was a lucky break to propel you into stardom. It could've happened to any one of us IF we had been at the right place at the right time and as you can tell these are just ordinary guys that love guitar just like me. It's really a shame that this is not the way it is now nor will it ever be again but the beauty part of this show is the willingness of the guys to get together and share their experiences and give us a look at how it was on the inside. Great-great-great stuff!!! Keep these fantastic videos coming! Saludos desde Puerto Rico! Ciao!

Yes indeed, thanks for sharing! I could not stop watching! Priceless information and very entertaining! Once again THANKS!

That is fantastic! So much experience shared in this video. Thank you! 3 great players trading solos is always wonderful. .

Wow, these stories are incredible! This was by far my favorite show you guys have done. It was obvious how much fun you had. Would love more shows with LA session guys like this. Thanks!

That tone at 5:49 is SPECTACULAR!!! What a spacey, ethereal, beautiful sound! Keep it up Pete and Tim!

this is just a fantastic episode. these guys are some of my heroes.

That was so awesome! Always cherish Michael Thompson's advice

Yay! been looking forwards to the next ep coming along, know you both very busy guys but been missing the TaPGS. Great. Fascinating being the fly on the wall listening to 3 guys who have so much experience talk through it all, inspiring.

It is so cool to meet these amazing studio musicians that have given color and expertise to thousands of albums.

What a great dude. I sit here thoroughly entertained.

Thank you Pete and Tim. I'm just goin through so much right now. Baby is due this month but currently no gigs so I had to sell my number 1 Suhr Classic, guitar house loans didn't get approved, I'm in the most expensive city in the world (Singapore), and I have a back injury. I woke up praying for something to take me out of that negative space and this video did just that. Bless u guys for giving us hope and inspiring us who put ourselves and our family's life into this uncertain joy of a full time musicians life.Thank you!

Absolutely the best RU-vid video posted I've seen in I suppose a month 😉 great TV. Inspiring. Gimme my guitar.

Legends! All three of you. Thanks for the best guitar show on RU-vid!

Best guitar show on YT! Tim's solo is the best! You guys should have Greg Koch on the next episode.

It is just so cool seeing you guys all together talking and playing. And more often than not I get goose bumps at some point when u guys play. THANKS.

Great episode - so much experience and knowledge being traded and remembered between great craftsmen.

Thx Tim & Pete for this wonderful look behind the musical curtain of session legend Michael Thompson. Such gr8 anecdotes. Best health & more power from Down Under to 3 of the best musicians still at it in 2020. pcHux.

Great episode! The solos were great but Wow Tim's solo was just excellent! Loved it! Thanks guys and keep it up!

been waiting a while for this next episode and it did not disappoint !

Thank you ever so much for this video!!! THAT's what I've been looking for in YT for a few years! So inspiring, full of lessons and experiences! Thank you also for attending one of my requests. I'll be here wating for an opportunity to watch another one with Michael (if possible), Michael Landau, Tom Bukovac and soooo many other stars! Thank you very much, guys! Wish to say so many other things, but I would take all night long! Please, take my good thoughts and words as a compliment, 'cause that's what it really is! ;)

Another Great Show Gentlemen!!!!...i'm lost for words AGAIN!!!! Thanks Tim and Peter:-))..

Really cool insight. Loved all 3 of the solos at the end! Neat to see how each person puts their own individual spin on things.

Ugh Tim Pierce 😍😍 Secrets, stories and solos, what a great video!

My Favourite episode thus far ! Incredible

yet another great show - i was hanging out for you guys to play and play you did...loved it! thanks guys, looking forward to the next episode

I keep watching this video over and over again. I've been waiting for an interview with Michael Thompson forever. I've been searching for that famous tone Michael gets for quite some time.I hope that someday Michael Landau agrees to do a video with you guys.

Keep up the good work guys! Really enjoy these.
