Most difficult Satch song

C.Thep · #1 08-22-2006, 09:54 PM

I don't really listen to Satch that much, but I met this pretty hot girl that says she does.
So whats the most difficult or most popular Satch song I can play to impress her?

(man, I wish I hadn't my JS1000 right now)

Always With Me Always With You has probably latched onto the hearts of millions of women across the world!

I reckon the middle part of The Mystical Potato Head Groove Thing is just plain impossible....... but I agree with Sirbrandon - AWMAWY has to be the all time Satriani Classic if you are out to impress .... unless of course she is a REAL Satch fan - in which case she'll see through you playing Always With Me in about ten nanoseconds..... ;-)

Crushing Day, the solo anyhow, most of his stuff I got down no problem, the little one hand tapping part in The Mystical Potato Head Groove Thing is pretty hard to nail I thought when I first learned it.

Eric Johnson's Venus Isle (the whole album) tab was a challenge for me, I acquired this book about 3 or 4 years ago and im still learning new stuff here and there.

Satch and EJ are definately my favs. Now, I would love to get my hands on some Tony MacAlpine tab.

Gotta be always with me and always with you, songs doesn't need to be hard to impress someone, it's how you relate yourself to a song which will impress some one

i believe (i find always with me always with you to be a tad cheesey)

AWMAWY is good for romantic purposes... but Satch Boogie or Summer Song are also good ones to impress her.
Good luck!

Cheesy, he's playing it for a girl, that's a prerequisite...

drizzt75 · #11 08-23-2006, 08:05 AM

gotto ask yourself how many other blokes have played that to her

i believe is still a smoochy song

Apart from AWMAWY I'd suggest

Surfin'
If I could fly
Rubina
One big rush
Summer song
and Crowd chant because it's funny

Mystical Potato Head Groove Thing ... purley for that impossible arpeggio section.

Power Cosmic

The whole song is like the middle section of the mystical potato head groove thing. Satch never plays it live because he has stated that it is too hard to nail.
