shredding videos

in case you haven't seen videos like the first one below, there are about a dozen videos online of famous rock guitarists' solos (and sometimes backing instrumentation and crowd applause), overdubbed by a finnish man, Santeri Ojala, with hilarious results. the video below is a rehash of an eric clapton solo, which might be more entertaining than the original solo.

apparently, youtube has been threatened with litigation from some guitarists who feel the videos compromise the integrity of their work, as Wired reported two months ago. that is a shame, because i think these are some of the more uniquely funny videos i have seen in a while.

and here is Santeri on the jimmy kimmel show, squaring off against Slash:
