I was married to Scotty Moore and you sound just like him. You have a real gift. Thanks for your kind words about him. He would be impressed with your talent.
I was married to Scotty Moore and hearing you play is like having Scotty sitting here by me. Thanks for making this video. I miss him so much. Emily Moore
I heard on Peter Guralnicks audiobook that at some point in 1954, Elvis joked around that he was looking for a date with Scotties wife which Scotty didn´t find amusing at all. Was that wife you?

Scotty was such an original classy, humble man. I followed him for decades in whatever articles I could find. Wolf Marshall finally did him justice in his "Elvis" music book-it should have been called "Scotty". I know Scotty was a meticulous record keeper, and I always thought his receipt logs on the road with Elvis (1950's) would have been fascinating to read. So little is known about their travels in the 50's. Even a Utube video reviewing his books would be absolutely fascinating.
Why did everybody call him "The Great Scotty Moore". Cuz he was great. Elvis was spoiled. Going from Scotty Moore to James Burton. Love your pickin', Pilgrim.
Wow, I've found your channel by the video what Mick Taylor did when Jimi Hendrix is in the audience, I gotta say that I love your songs that you make content on and you really radiate positive vibes and energy in your videos. Thanks for making my day much happier 😊😊
SCOTT, WAS A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE FOR 30 PLUS YEARS. I PURCHASED HIS RECORDING STUDIO FOR MY SISTER TO OPERATE. I HAVE COOKED BREAKFAST ON HIS KITCHEN STOVE QUIET A FEW TIME , WHILE HE SAT AT HIS KITCHEN TABLE PLAYING HIS GUITAR. AUTHENTIC & PURE SCOTTY MOORE GUITAR MUSIC.
I remember my buddy learning all his solos in 1959.One of his favs was just because.He was only 16 but was headed for great things.i beleive he met Scotty. His name is Albert Lee.
Those A7 and B7 chords are really the old school way to play them. Scotty Moore’s solo in Hound Dog is wicked, too. There’s one chord that defies logic when he starts part two of his solo. He was a great and trend setting player, for sure.
yep, the 7th interval is on top only, i keep noticing this old version in things too, pops that note out more though, it matters which interval is the highest note in a chord, similar to how, the notes are arranged can make it sound completely different.
This riff is one of the all time rock a billy go to riffs. It's prolly in the top 10 of all rock n roll riffs. Modified, it's still being played today. Good show, and please do more Scotty :-)
Good video, and a nice introduction to the importance of muting. So many of us don't get our muting chops right 'cuz we're too busy learning the cool bits.🤘🤘
Thank you for another fantastic lesson on an often overlooked legend. However, if I could humbly add my 2 cents ... changing the camera view 10 times on your intro riff is unnecessary and distracting ... your playing is all the polish we need!
That was great Thom! So many of those old country pickers were great guitarist. I was wondering if you ever did a video about the late, great, Gary Moore? Happy Holidays to you & your family! Be well and stay safe! 👍👍🎸🎸🎄🎄😉😉
Some fun facts here: Scotty heard Chet playing the alternating bass pattern (and perfected it in his own unique way that is different from anybody else doing it). Chet got from Merle Travis, and you know who taught Merel Travis? Ike Everly, the father of the famous Everly Brothers. And you know who taught Ike Everly? Arnold Shultz, a black R&B musician.
good lesson. love how you go over the physical details of the technique. would have been helpful to know theoretical what notes he was playing with those high slides? various dyads? notes of the E major scale? its just hard to implement without understanding some why.
You are so good teacher and a super good guitarist. You appreciate dynamics and simplicity when it's needed. There are thousands of skill guitarist out there but they don't sound interesting..just like a barbed wire. Thank you . 😊
For me, Scotty Moore was the best Guitarist of all Time, although Hunk Garland was a bit heavier and just as Brilliant. But Scotty shaped the Rock Sound and Style with DJ, Black and Presley in such a Way that after them there was hardly anything that the four of them hadn't done long ago.
You are entirely correct about how great Scotty Moore is. There are very few guitar players who have influenced so many others, who are so distinctive and original, and who still remain at the top of the list all these decades later. I saw an interview with Scotty once, and he said "There's two kinds of guitar players---- the ones who play notes, and the ones who make sounds. I make sounds." He was a real genius of the guitar, and it was an extraordinary act of fate and God that put him together with Elvis, Bill Black, and Sam Phillips.
I was lucky enough to see Scotty perform a few times and meet him too. One time before the gig I decided to pop out quickly to get something from my car and walking into the club by himself in his raincoat was Scotty! I couldn’t believe it!! I shook his hand and thanked him for coming to the UK
Scotty was so in Money Honey (where he used that slide you demonstrated with an E chord) in the solo when he changes to an A chord there is a short gap then he hits the down beat - absolutely sublime.
Can you do one on the great jeff healey i know its hard because of the way he played it flat on hes lap and so forth but would be great to see one on him love these vids.👌
