HEY EVERYONE... Vote Greg Koch as a CERTIFIED GUITAR PLAYER (ie. the CGP Chet Atkins Award). Greg should absolutely get this award. Love him or not, the man is continually playing at genius level and is moving the art of guitar forward in a big way. The band should absolutely get recognition too. IMHO, Tommy Emmanuel should present it to Greg Koch as it should only be presented by past recipients. And yes, there are MANY others who qualify for this award in many different genres. ARE YOU WITH ME YOU TUBERS?

Greg is one of the most expressive guitar players ever, it feels like he have this unbelievable easy and immediate way of bringing into music his deep thoughts, incredible. And he’s just getting better and better, having more conscience of the musicality that needs to be followed by the listeners… such a joy! And Matt seems to be tighter again, one of the best recordings I’ve heard lately 🙏🏻🤗🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Overall, from what I heard, this show confirms that Mr. Koch’s reputation as an exciting player is well deserved. As a listener and a keys guy, I do have considerations about the overall balance, however. First tune: What is it with mixing engineers when they hear keyboards are set at half the level of guitar and drums and think to themselves, “That sounds pretty good.”? I’ve been in this organist’s shoes many times. He has to pull all the drawbars full out, stomp the volume pedal down all the way and virtually forgo all dynamics lest he be lost in the mix completely. I just won’t put up with that b.s. any more. Give the guy some headroom and let him control his dynamics with his volume pedal. Then he could use some subtle shading with the organ drawbars and could perform dynamics and phrasing with the volume pedal, in the same ways that the great Greg K and his drummer can. Second tune: Better, because it is a ballad. Third tune: Again, starts with nice dynamics, but the keys are still a bit buried, especially since the player is holding down the bass. Why do all of his solos sound like the band is losing energy? Because his level needs to come up more. Sound engineer, WTF is wrong with you guys? Do you all take an oath to screw with the keyboards? Whenever we got a new guy at the mixing board I tried to tell them to think of the sound of Deep Purple in terms of balance. Keys should be on par with guitar volume wise in a band like this.

But if the good fairy offered me to play as him or as Matt S, I'd choose the latter any day of the week. Matt's solos are so much more interesting to listen to! So melodious and with a timing that is unfailing. His unique approach to the blues is unparalleled!

For those of you, not familiar with Matt Schofield, here is a recent show he did. Greg really didn’t let him play to any extent. Matt and Greg are my two favorite guitarists…. Enjoy… kzitem.info/news/bejne/x6Jn33WZf2iIgoY
Greg is the only player who can even approximate the jeff beck style. But as good as he is he can’t get that beck thing. That’s how unique a player beck is. Even a play anything virtuoso like Greg can only get close but not quite. However it’s a great version still.
