Paul Davids
This is 14 minutes long. If you have time, try to listen without looking at the screen and see how many you recognize. He puts the name of the song on the screen for all 80. Listen again and see how many you got right. I recognized about 60 of the 80 but only knew the names of about 45 of them.

I would fail. Abjectly.
Sheesh! I recognized and knew the name of 2 from the 1950s and 6 from the 1960s, for a total of 8. There were a few I recognized from the 1970s but didn't remember the name of the song. Once he hit the 1980s, things got even fuzzier, and then from the 1990s on, I recognized and knew none of them.
I knew most from the 20th century, fewer of the more modern ones.
He is a talented guy; but he skipped quite a few of the better guitarists
such as Steve Vai, Joe Satriani etc.
I loved this!!
I knew more than I thought I would.
Thx I need to share this.
Sue - Take your phone outside and listen while you're gardening. You just might go AH HA!
Deb - I know what you mean. I know artists and songs less and less as time passes.
Stu - I hadn't heard of those two guys so I looked them up. Guess what I found... Satch Vai Us Tour: Joe Satriani & Steve Vai Tue • Apr 30 • 7:30 PM
The Factory, St. Louis, MO ... Almost sold out ...
Next Tuesday, 15 minutes from my house. How much? Tickets are $70 to $125.
Peg - There are more videos like this though not with this many songs.
Nice!
That was fun. I knew most of the 1960/1970 songs. For the newer ones, about the time I got frustrated he'd throw in a song that I recognized and make me feel better.
I knew all but 14 of them - the ones I did not know were two of the blues songs at the beginning, Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Metallica, Fleetwood Mac, Gary Moore, Dream Theater, Muse, Papa Roach, System of a Down, Audioslave, Polyphia. For some of these bands, I felt like he missed out on there most iconic songs. But what the hey - he can play what he loves.
Bill - And fun!
Kathy - I was surprised I could pick out as many as I did.
Lady - I had forgotten about the Papa Roach song. I looked it up and have been zoning out on the guitar riff.
