Eric Johnson - 'Lonely In The Night'

[FeelingShred]

this guy is playing the Olympics of Guitar Playing and he's winning 🎸🔥🔥🔥 ⭐

That tone is so clean, Clorox had to file for bankruptcy.

One of the best guitar solos ever on the original version. Hard song to sing too. Nice to see a live version pop up!!

[jorari]

What a live version! I've listened a hundred times this song and I lvoe this version. The synthesizer makes a good complement. Great version!

[LedMatt]

Venus Isle has amazing songs. I really hope I ever get to hear All About You live!

[stevenjones]

I don't know sometimes if guitar community folks realize how hard it must be to switch from chimey cleans to 'singing allegro' the way EJ does. And 'album purists' need to understand how different and interesting live performances can be.

Eric is living proof that you can have immense technical abilities, raw feel, and soaring tones all in one package.

Let’s be honest, Venus Isle is extremely unrated. But that’s why I love it! This song literally introduced me to Eric Johnson. And it happens to be my favorite Album. We all know his other albums are commercially successful but I tell not just guitar fanatics, but musicians in general, listen to Venus Isle. Yeah you can tell it’s he’s signature tone, but there is an underlining beautiful majestic theme to it and it feels unique. Just my opinion but it’s also like symphonic rock. Love the performance as well.

Playing such solo with clean tone and without messing up a note takes big balls and insane skill

[rocknrod]

Thanks for posting. Agree with comments . Always wanted to see him play this. One of the best solos of his career. That says a lot about all his fantastic songs. I have followed him since his Electromagnet days. In Austin, I've seen him "5 times" in the 80's and 90's before Alien Love child group. Should be in the Hall of Fame. Yes, Im a year older than him.

RIP Vince Mariani. What a beautiful song he wrote for what amazing solos Eric played to honour this song ❤️✨✌🏼

Eric Johnson's dynamics are so good it almost sounds like he's paying backwards sometimes

[anthonysam]

Wow... couldn't believe this video came out. Wasn't expecting this song because I've never seen it performed live as well. :smiling ear to ear while watching:
Thank the heavens for YouTube!

The three people who gave this a thumbs down need to re-evaluate their lives.

[Anirban]

I have always been a great fan of his clean tones, melodies and vocals.

[Shho]

Eric I wish you would have played this when I saw you in Manhattan last year! Sooo many emotions for me tied to this song! It's AMAZING to hear it get some love!!!!

[YW-deyz]

Guitar solos on the album version of this song are beautiful and pretty much perfect, as well as incredibly difficult to learn …

[pauljenkin]

I think Venus Isle is your best album Mr Johnson. It is absolutely perfect! Every song is stellar, with some of the best solos I've ever heard. A masterpiece through and through.

Dave Scher is an amazing guitar player too!

It is just unbelievable what the man does live.. Playing the most complicated things and singing and switching sounds all together.. And this is just one song on the set.. CRAZY
I want to see him
