So I finally checked out Erotic Cakes...

[Chryst Krispies]

And I officially never want to even look at a guitar again, let alone try and play it.

Guthrie Govan is the man... love that album. bought it at the Cornford Booth a few years ago at NAMM, after a Govan demo.

 

[Harry Hughes]

Guthrie has that effect on just about every guitar player alive

 

[AudioPhile777]

Thanks, I'll steer clear.

[greyskull]

you should try being taught by him! God it's depressing.
ACTUALLY the best guitarist in the world. No doubt!

 

[ATLA]

this guy makes me never want to stop playing.

 

[The Unavoidable]

I assume you have all seen this?



One of the craziest, most mindblowing things I have ever heard.

 

[Sweetnothing]

When I saw this I went and bought erotic cakes after that.
Yes, it made me look the guitar with a sad face

 

[Sweetnothing]

And of course this one

 

[Metaltastic]

Good god what legato in that NAMM Cornford vid - can't say the bluesy/funky style does anything for me emotionally/musically, that's like all anyone at NAMM played when I was there, almost made my head explode But few to none as well as him of course! I'll still check out his music though, I know noodling clips are hardly necessarily an indicator of a guitarist music!

 

[Metaltastic]

And of course this one

Much better, I can almost hear Barry White seducing me over those synths

Wait wait wait - are you saying...that's Guthrie...playing all those parts...


...


I can't handle it. The foundation of my reality just completely crumbled. I mean, the styles AND the tones, holy god! I'm absolutely speechless. His sweeping is a tad sloppy, but FUCK, when he does Gilbert, that legato run was just ridiculous, and he totally nailed the nasally cocked wah Satch tone, and those amazing Vai descending mixolydian licks...good god...

But then the snoozes set in
