A painfully underrated guitarist

That bring on the night guitar part is just brilliant

Oh, that flanger sound takes me right back to my childhood. And then the synth guitar... Gosh... All spiced up with the sweet and warm degradation of the glorious VHS tape

I recommend to listen Andy Summers´ music in his solo career. It is really beautiful.

I'm floored! I had no idea Andy could play blues like that. I wish he'd explore it, I'd love to hear a blues record by him. This video is sort of Spinal-Tap in the way he reveals a hidden songwriting talent.

when those 3 got together it was a miracle.

He is horribly underrated.

I saw them last week at Fenway and I'd say they're all pretty equal as just pure musicians (most 3 pieces are). Andy was extremely impressive.

Andy looking like a younger cuter Sting.Ive never seen him describing how he plays his guitars before. Very talented. Thank you so much for this!

Andy Summers Rocks!

u can tell that andy really likes to play with lots of effects cause he immediately started playing with the pedal again after playing on the clean sound

"Did he really just unplug my guitar??!!"

Filmed at air studios in Montserrat...hurricane hugo wiped the place out in 1989 and its an abandoned wreck now. A real shame as a lot of well known artists recorded there.

One of my favorite guitarists and favorite sounds.

3:05 LOL

A really underrated guitarist ,., I heart the Bring on the night riff

Jools pulling his lead out at 5:30 is brilliant

Andy Summers is a great guitar player. Enjoyed this!

Wow andy's synchopation is amazing. Maybe that's why they sound so good? Stewarts also a synchopation master.

love the way he plays, so clean

God I absolutely love that Bring on the Night arpeggio.

are you kidding me? how? andy summers is incredibly underrated

Can’t like this enough!

Andy!!!!

Fabulous guitarist. Andy is one of the unique rockers. 🔥👌🏽

Damn that sounds beautiful 😩🤟🏻

Love Andy!

One of the most underrated guitarists, Andy Summers. I think the blues tune they are doing is Highway 49 from Howlin' Wolf.

His sound along with stewart's unique style are what made sting's songs truly great. his solo stuff is painfully lacking without the two. sting's first solo album could of been a classic with the help of andy and stewart.

Holy,he has a sweet tone and very effecient player.

why the fuck is this guy not ranked up there with page and perry and clapton. maybe hes not as flashy but hes incredibly creative with his riffs and effects.

his guitar sound is fucking awesome

Who says he's underrated? I always thought he was great 👍

It's so sad to see that balcony and know that great studio is in ruin.

Jools Holland 24/01/1958 63 años (64)

I wanted to hear more of the funk playing

You gotta love a guy who has a "you killed kenny, you bastards" stick on his guitar at 65 years old!

Andy Summers 31/12/1942 79 años (80)

I was wondering the same thing

5:34 if anybody ever unplugged my guitar like that, I'd punch them straight in the face. It'd be especially satisfying if they had a face as punchable as Jools here.

these guys probably knew one another well as they toured the us under the same management...

they were amazed with the sound tech from then and we have all that now and more for cheap in a compact size its amazing how far we come

5:29 OMG! 😱 Jools jokingly pulled Andy’s guitar chord out when he played a funk guitar riff 30 years ago! Ohh, the controversy! I wish Jools did this to the Red Hot Chili Peppers back in 1981! 😂

like edge, a true texturalist

I know! The fuckin cheek of him hahaha!

I think one person hit the dislike button by accident. How could anyone dislike this?

great! what amplifier and speaker did Andy Summer use to record Message in a Bottle in the studio?

because a lot of old school players don't put as much stock in effect driven sound as opposed to just creation of interesting sounds with simply the guitar and amp alone.. but when andy was coming up the effects were really being revolutionized at this point so it was really interesting for him and many guitar players. It sounds ok but i still prefer listening to andy without all those effects. I've seen him live in a small club in chicago "Martyr's" and he is a great player.

I have that same shirt and I wear it on Fridays at the office!

Well. I'll. Be. Andy Summers is a bluesman? Color me impressed.

so cool .......african child//// bring on the night

where can I get a t-shirt like that?

>>hey thanx! how do u know that? :] Gee, maybe because that's what it says on the DVD case?

hey thanx! how do u know that? :] Montserrat rang a bell to me..its a place in spain. but then again..seems its not this one :] do u mean this place is south of the U.S? a bunch of islands between Haiti, and Venezuela?

i dunno why but jooles reminds me of pee wee herman in this video.

@LewisWatsonn That will be my wedding song

Why did they inhale helium before the interview?

Which list was that?

@shawnmetts wait... I heard that andy used an A/DA flanger in the early years of police..

where? i missed it!..what time?

Was this interview shot on Montserrat?

Right! I didn´t know he was so good outside reggae!

where does he say that? I want to see it haha..

what he's doing at 3:05 ????

does anyone knows where it was filmed at? doesnt seem like england to me :] seems like t'was filmed while the police were on their peak...but just before breaking up..thats the feeling i get :]

I'm just dumb struck!

I loved the part where they jammed the blues. Sounded like JEremy Spencer. A shame the Police broke up. I think they could have delved into so many styles of music if Sting had let the other guys contribute more. As we know what Stewart Copeland went on to do. Opera.....Ballet...movies scores.....and Andy would have provided Sting with some brilliant jazz backing. HEy ....maybe they can get together and do an album now??!!!!!!

well not underrated by me, I think he is an incredible guitarist!

This whole interview on Jools part seems rather condescending. Maybe its just me.

That Tele tho!!!! Hot damn!! That has to be one of the most iconic Telecasters in Rock History

Andy says what he used at 2:27

Yes, that was funny. Jools Holland is one of the greatest interviwers ever in rock/pop. I love his show.

3:06 classic

That was Sting yelling at Holland at 5:35. Probably "wanker" or "cunt".

why does look so tall in here

They were friends, just messing around. No biggie.

He should turn his Marshall stacks to 10 and scare the living s%#$ out of Jools.

lol 3:06

ripped t shirt

He's not under-rated. He was great and textures and colouring sounds etc and also voicings but his live solos were embarrassing I thought at times. Nice solos in the studio though I grant you. And..............a really nice bloke!

I was just waiting for Andy to say "No, this one goes up to 11". Nice to see an interview though where the interviewer actually knows what he's talking about and isn't just fluffing.

@daftload didn't even make rolling stones top 100

unplugging guitars is a naughty trick well known musicians seem to do to play a joke on each other occasionally yes.... it's a bit shocking

UNDERRATED?!?!? NOT BY ME!!!!!!!!!!! DJ

omg! even so! this guy has no shame... :\

Great clip. I always liked Andy's guitar playing. So what if he's not as good a musician as the others. Can you really imagine The Police without him? I sure can't.

andy is the weakest of the 3? LOL. he is the sickest guitarist ever

Looks like he's wearing one of those "Who Farted??!" t-shirts... guess he wasn't making too much cash there yet.

two very talented people....but jools holland doesn't seem impressed by any of them.

Watch some of his lessons on youtube and you'll get what I mean. Personally, I like him, but it gets kind of annoying.

A very sloppy guitarist
