This is a great tune too.
I'll always be partial to Santo & Johnny, but this is the one JS track I can appreciate. |

Had to stop work to comment. This song brings me straight back to a high school dance. Slow dancing with the best looking girl in my class. Wow!

I agree. I could tell from the first note it wasn't S&J - something just "missing" in the feeling department. |

Lovely tune - let yourself be a touch sentimental for a moment that's all! Terrific version of this Brian Seltzer classic by Amos Garrett, actually.....

It's not a bad one, but there are much better tunes of Joe Satriani; tunes where one really can feel the fire of his guitar!

Maybe this particular track evokes some feeling in you, and that's great - but to say some music has feeling or doesn't is one of the weirdest things people ever say about music.
And again...feeling alone, if it's really there, does not equal something good. Need I repeat my grotesque turd analogy?
Oh, oh, oh. I feel very sorry for you, hon. |

I've always liked Joe's playing for just that reason, he can do more than just shred. A great sense of melody in his playing. |

I'd agree- Danny's is probably better than Santo and Johnny's (sacreligious gasp!). This one sounds like much of Satriani's stuff- without much soul, but technically really well done. |

You can't hear feeling? You are either deaf, or just plain stupid. That's what really good music evokes, feeling or a connection between you and the music. So if the music you are listening doesn't evoke a feeling in you, then maybe you are listening to the wrong music or the wrong artist.
agreed

Who are you to say that a person can't hear feeling? Is that what you learned in your music appreciation class?
I'm not a great musician, but I've been playing guitar for over 20 years, have played with several people, and IMHO, once a musician achieves a certain degree of technical ability, what makes the difference in the sound is the 'feeling' or 'soul' that he or she puts into it. This feeling that I speak of isn't about making freaky-looking faces or crazy body gestures, it's about being completely in the moment while playing and pulling the music from within you, not from your instrument. For this reason, even a musician who is capable of playing with feeling will occasionally have bad days, and it's noticeable to those listening.
Furthermore, there's often a correlation between a musician's life experience, personality and sensitivity, and the amount of feeling that is transmitted through his or her playing.
This is not something that is measurable, nor proved scientifically... it's something one senses. I, for one, can HEAR feeling, as I believe most people can. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that feeling is the first thing people perceive when listening to a piece of music.
I would, however, agree that feeling is not always a good thing... I believe that John Lee Hooker sings with a lot of feeling, but I find him irritating.
