+tonykratos Tony is a legend. Pretty much everyone knows it. Including Steve Vai who Tony play backup guitar for. Tony Mac's Maximum Security is an amazing album that remained on the Billboard top200 for eleven weeks at release and features guest solos by George Lynch. Not to mention his tone (reverb especially) is absolutely pristine on that album. Maximum Security is essential listening for guitarists.
+tonykratos Maximum security was the 80s best neo classical album next to rising force i'd say , time oddessy was good also vinnie more e album , Maximum security was late 80s good driving music serious the most flawless sweep arpeggios in my options at the time 87 , many guest appeances from george lynch whatever dude from night ranger , not brad gillis four finger hammeron tech Rivers edge 'feck' I never seen him play 4 finger taps anyways people said he did back then , If we couldnt win battle of bands NOBODY but noibody did, find the main power siupply shut everything downs we were asshole clowns I dont think nightranger played 4 fingered taps shredding mach one as stanley jordon natural ability
+Riversof Gore Maximum insecurity! Its more important to be tough than have fun , like insecure human who fears everyone, tears of sahara, dream state, etc I'm not done .. The problem with maximum insecurity 'besides the album cover' was jeff watson and george lynch laughin !
Fun Fact before all you read this and not watch his best solos out of laziness. Jeff Loomis BIGGEST inspiration ever was the STUDENT of Marty Friedman.
Thats a seriously impressive session. Bass and Drums are killing it! that drummer is awesome! that bass tone is to die for! seeing jeff and tony playing off each other like that is such a pleasure for anyone who has a passing interest in their combined works. Lets not forget Nili as well, that was such an impressive showing of skills.
I'm at a loss for words to describe how outrageously tight that level of musicianship was! Even the rhythm section blew my mind at how spot-on they were!
I came for Jeff Loomis, stayed for the bass....somebdoy get that guy a medal, he held the guitar leads together while emphasizing them stunningly well!
***** the so-called "playthrough" is also just air guitar to the track. No doubts that they can play it. I would just like to hear it instead of the recording.
Edward Ashburn I know. That's why I said it's not even a "performance". All playthroughs are pretty much music videos with only the players sitting in one place.
the funny thing about tony's music is that the older he gets, the heavier and more aggressive his stuff seems to sound. His earlier albums had alot more songs that had a ballad feel to them, they almost sound romantic. but meanwhile concrete gardens and his self titled album are both much heavier then before - serpens cauda and the title track concrete gardens are super ballsy
Change is if you are a musician. I am 51 and have been playing guitar since I was 12, I started out playing nothing but hard rock like Sabbath, ACDC, Judas Priest, but if I played nothjing but haed rock and metal all these years, I would have gotten bored with it. So now I play a variety of stuff, Jazz, country, even Latin
10 minute of complete eargasms are in this video called " top ten solos of Marty Friedman" Who was the teacher of Jeff Loomis biggest inspiration for playing guitar.
Everyone can have slightly different tastes upon drummers, but I found Aquiles a pretty poor drummer for his genre. I don't know, everyone seems to love him...
@@SavoyerMatt I really don't see what you're seeing I guess. To each their own but I think he is one of my favourite drummers to listen to. It's not Virgil good but he is so solid and original in his sound.
@Brian Cruz It was a lot of pretense for Aquiles Priester to think he would be able to play at Dream Theater, but in front of the band he was embarrassed!
That was the most impressive performance I've seen in a long time. There is nothing more entertaining than watching highly dedicated and skilled musicians do what they love.
Love the concept of this song! it really makes me feel weird, just like a 'square circle', like listening to something that shouldn't exist haha Oh yeah, and the trading solos with Jeff was epic!
Let alone the rest of that album or any other of his solo albums.. musically on another level doesnt mean "higher" level. Jeffs compositional skills arent to be fucked with.
@NocturneKing Jeff probably agrees with your suggestion. Something tells me that Jeff is honored and humbled by the opportunity to perform with one of his heroes.
jackberserk777 He's using in combination with his Emg; the Sustainiac can also be used as an actual pickup but he never once switched to the neck pickup.
Rimfeldt Are you sure? I had a Jackson Dinky with the sustainiac pickup and all you could do was switch it on and off and had another switch that toggled between modes. The sustainiac itself I think is just a hyper pickup that gives the sustain and squealy effect, not an actual pickup for rhythm or strumming. That was my impression anyways. I didn't master it.
Kevin Kraft Ah, you're indeed right. The Sustainiac has a dummy cover, but the Sustainer (which is what I have in my Fernandes Revolver) can be used as a neck pickup.
Tony was always one of the best of his generation, and he's still on top of it. awesome stuff, and the interplay between him and Jeff during the tradeoffs was fantastic.
A FB friend of mine had a FB friend named Tony MacAlpine. I knew a couple MacAlpine kids back in my old Springfield, MA neighborhood years ago, so I did some sleuthing on whitepages and FB. Sure enough, wp came up with a listing which including his old addy in Spfld. Glad to see he's such an accomplished musician.
Ill never understand why people say modern metal/shredding guitar has no dynamics or emotion. The ability to control harmonics enabled by hi-gain compressed tones is a whole different level of dynamics that isnt nearly as achievable with lo-gain naturally overdriven styles. And the fact that hearing those flurries of notes sends chills down your spine, or gives you an overwhelmed feeling, or literally just makes you say "wow- that is fucking cool", is conveyed emotion right there. There's a huge sense of admiration that comes when you see players skilled like this. Shit, even if you're just feeling jealous or annoyed at their skill, you're still feeling something. The feeling of jealousy and competition goes a long way in motivating one to become a better player
It has some dynamics, but it's a limited spectrum. Shredding is a linear approach to guitar playing. I love it, but now that I'm older I get why it is looked down as being 'unsophisticated'. When shredders are in shred mode, _from the point of view of sound_ they are just playing quickly with the same tone, no amount of intricate fingering really changes that fact. The sound rarely changes. The best ones are able to make themselves sound dynamic within extremely limited parameters, and the ones who don't just sound like machines, but it's the use of space and texture that is generally understood to lend music a sense of 'wholeness' and 'dynamism' and shredding lacks those qualities. As for these two guitarists, I love Tony Mac and was one of Loomis' early supporters in the 90's when he was first in Nevermore, but his solo work leaves me cold. It's technically great but it doesn't 'move' me, for lack of a better word, at least not beyond the theme park visceral thrill you described above ('the flurry of notes that sends chills down your spine).
Não dá pra descrever a emoção de ver o Jeff com o a lenda TONY MACALPINE (deu pra ver o quanto os caras se divertiram) e o monstruoso Aquiles Priester sem contar ainda com essa guitarplayer e o bass poderoso!!! PUTA QUE ME PARIU... A palavra "harmonia" foi pensando nesse som que esses monstros fizeram...
Those two know how to bring life out of the pickups that passive players resent. I will never play anything but EMG and this video is what inspired me to put them in my guitars.
Tony Macalpine: Is the Best Musician in the whole WORLD, take it a word from a fellow musician; Tony Macalpine's the best in the whole world, may God bless and protect him
@@mayanktrakru Jason Becker was a great player no doubt, but just so you know that video you posted is majorly sped-up. Watch the original AIM clinic full video for comparison.
Today all the new musicians make fireworks when they play the guitar and they do not bring anything new. Tony always finds new nuances that expand his musicality. I will always be amazed. He gets a perfect balance between all musicians and get real works of art. Control of tempo, rhythms, musicality, atmosphere... No matter the musical style, he always has sophistication. There is not such a complete musician from 30 years until today.
Oh my lord this was amazing! Jeff should appear on more tracks as a guest soloist. Beautiful! Now bring Andy James, Govan and Abasi in the mix and we're done.
I really like 2:22 where the music sort of like a prelude to d emergance of loomis. Dat guitar duel was really enjoyable, been a long time since i watched one till the finish
Excellent whole band !! Tony, Jeff Loomis, Nili Brosh, Pete Griffin, and the strength of Aquiles Priester on drums. They may sound a little of this and a little of that, but if we ignore radar undoubtedly is an excellent and complex music that motivates and enjoys every way !! 10 points !!
