I just posted 50 “new” guitar performance videos to YouTube.
See, I recently finished the 100th video for my YouTube channel. Not quite ready to face the second hundred, I spent a few days reviewing all those clips. Some stuff I’m proud of. Some makes we wince. And I thought a few bits might stand on their own as music, so I plucked my 50 favorite exceprts and posted them as standalone performances, minus such distractions as tech mumbo-jumbo, incessant snark, and color. (But if you are curious about something you hear, note that each clip includes a link to the tech-slanted piece where it originated.)
(Fifty is a lot of videos. Just because I’m repeating myself doesn’t mean it wasn’t hard work!)
While poking around under the YouTube hood, I also did some long overdue organization. Beside the 50 added clips, I sorted everything into specialized playlists: electric, acoustic, geek stuff, and the new performance-only clips.
If you’re interested in all the above, you’re like me. (Sorry about that!) In that case, you can skip the playlists and just go in through the front door.
HA! you realize that’s a solid 4 albums worth of material… I’ve been in a pit of musical boredom for a couple months now and too busy(lazy) to do a proper search for new stuff so this is much appreciated. (still waiting for that solo album though ….. 🙂
This is fantastic! Thanks so much for posting these, Joe. I only recently discovered your site and I’m glad I did: your playing is beautiful, the content is fantastic and the videos are always full of interesting ideas and creativity.
I also appreciate the thoughtful, insightful things like your video on your favorite rock solo. Carry on Joe, we’re looking forward to the next 100 videos!
Thanks so much Truman. Funny — when I sit all day in my little studio, obsessing on geek stuff, it’s sometimes difficult to believe that anyone else will find it interesting. So I appreciate your kind words more than you might imagine. 🙂
Hi Joe. Congrats on you first 100(I think I’ve seen all of them).
Diggin’ the monochrome. Very noir. Truman stated it so eloquently
already. Many thanks.
Thanks, Martin. Your words mean a lot. 🙂
Great music Joe! I didn’t know you had posted so many songs already. Love the composition, love the playing… keep it up!
This is great !
Thanks, guys! Everyone’s being so NICE!
Love your music, your sound and your taste! You are really inspiring, thank you! 🙂
Wow — three deeply flattering compliments in one short sentence! Thanks SO much for the kind words. 🙂
