To me that has a lovely Joe Satriani vibe to it.

OK, now I have no option but to spend my afternoon with him on in the background. There are advantages to working from home.

I always choose Joe Satriani songs when I Karaoke.

Cheers for that. I decided to double my sifting efficiency and watched https://videosift.com/video/Drone-Flight-of-the-Year to that soundtrack... they synched up like Wizard of Oz and Dark Side of the Moon... and I'm not even high! (I started the drone flight after about 50 seconds if you want to try it yourself).

Off to listen to some Joe Satriani now that I'm in the mood for real guitar.

After the last one here on the sift (her covering Hendrix's Voodoo Chile), I did a YT search and found this one and others. I like her taste in music (Hendrix, SRV, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, etc.) and her skill with this instrument (Gayageum) -- follow oritteropo's advice and search for more if this was your cup of tea!

HA! I never noticed that before! Flying.. was the first cd I ever bought so I love cranking that up. Saw him play "back to.." live once and nearly lost my mind

In reply to this comment by MilkmanDan:
I like Joe Satriani, but I hadn't ever heard this song. I have Surfing with the Alien, so I thought the description was odd. Turns out the song is from the album Flying in a Blue Dream instead which is one of the few albums of Satriani's that I don't have.

Song was good, the video was not great quality and a little meh. Still, I'll upvote for the introduction to a Joe Satriani song I had missed!

There's a difference? I still don't believe they're separate people.

My theory is that some time in the 70s, as a teenager, Joseph Steven Satrivaini had the most insane acid trip ever that actually caused him to split into two entities. Steve Vai is what would become of him if he continued as a drug user. Joe Satriani is what would become of him as a non-drug user. Turns out nothing is really affected by drug use other than physical appearance.>> ^shuac:
Someone's a Joe Satriani fan. Or Steve Vai.

Cool! I enjoy seeing all the weird ways that people come up with for making "unexpected" sounds from instruments, particularly electric guitars. Videos of Joe Satriani concerts are fun also -- he incorporates a lot of stuff like this into songs.

hmmm...so that's what that looks like. I can check that off of my list.
List of things to see:
Dark matter
Tahiti
Spain
the Pyramids
Stonehenge
A man rubbing a popsicle on his head through an infrared lens
A potato chip that can play Joe Satriani
An Octopuss' garden (preferably under the sea)


actually, you can see number #9 on your list at the channel islands. a site called octopuss' garden can be dived by boat. No kidding. I was there last year.

Though I am not sure I would label him as "best guitarist" as suggested by the tags, he is extremely talented. He was invited to play among some of the world's greatest guitarists on Steve Vai's Christmas album "Merry Axemas". His rendition of "Joy to the World" sits comfortably with offerings from the likes of Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, Joe Satriani, Jeff Beck and Alex Lifeson.

Thanks for posting.
