  Ok people, from now on every guitarist should be able to play a song right before the interview starts. What a cool fantastic way to elevate and engage the audience to his music. My respect to Steve for being a real 24/7 professional musician bringing all the right equipment he usually uses. This is the way to go guys! 🤘🏻🎸🔥

  You've surpassed every Billion dollar TV channel on the planet, and cornered the market for interviewing legendary musicians Rick. What a magnificent feat!

  Steve Morse, one of the all time greats. A great musician and songwriter, a genuinely modest and nice man, husband and human being.

  Such humility and talent all wrapped into one package,  He's a quiet genius and I respect that so much.

  One of the most amazing guitar players I've ever heard... and thankfully I had the opportunity to see him play live a few times! Thanks for the interview... awesome!

  When the Rolling Stone top 250 guitarists of all time came out and Steve didn't even show up on the list - I immediately gave up hope that Rolling Stone could possibly be taken seriously. I have Steve in the top 10.

  Rick, you probably never gonna read my comment here cause this video is almost at 5000 comments and over a year old. But man, you are doing gods work here. As a 45 year old guitarist here in germany of course I heard about Steve Morse and checked him out a bit in my 20s, but getting to know him, about his life and some stories, here through you and your interviews is so special, so heartfelt, interesting, sometimes hilarious and always so engaging that I just have to thank you for it. All of it. All you do. Please never stop. And Steve Morse has now a special place in my heart. Such an incredible human being, and so inspiring to never stop and always keep going on your instument.<br><br>THANK YOU

  💚I am a stage hand in Finland. &nbsp;After all the grueling years building concerts; this man was the only one I have had, to stop as soon as he saw us waiting to do load out. &nbsp;With his guitar still in hand, he was clearly heading to the greenroom. &nbsp;But as soon as he saw us waiting to work, he did one large step, stopped, put his hands together &amp; bowed while saying thank you. &nbsp;I havent watched this yet, but Im pretty sure this is going to be a humble interview🤙🏻

  Musicians like Steve Morse are one in tens of millions. He is such a humble, unpretentious man. To see him facing his physical limitations and finding ways to continue playing is truly inspiring. &nbsp;May he have many more years to share his immense talent with us.

  Dear Rick. I have to thank you for one of the most beautiful interviews ever. It meant too much for me. It was new year 1981 to 1982 when I first heard The Dregs. I was spending the holidays in a farm in the interior of Brazil. I had just lost my father and my girl friend. Steve&apos;s music kind of assembled me together again. The way you directed the interview just made humanist Steve&apos;s personality bloom. Thank you again.

  As soon as those chords and arpeggios began, I wondered, &quot;What is this feeling?&quot; It was as if a portal had opened before me. Then, as the interview unfolded, I witnessed Steve&apos;s true mastery, and his humility and didactic approach to music left me speechless. A true genius and a musical hero. I hope he can continue making music for many more years. A wonderful encounter. Greetings from Argentina.
