FANTASTIC Lesson. Listen to the grooves and rhythmic power behind Robin Trower, Jimi Hendrix, SRV, Billy Gibbons, Peter Frampton, Paul Kossoff, Frank Marino and all our heroes. Behind EVERY fantastic guitarist is an OUTSTANDING rhythm/percussion section. They make our heroes even better.

@roygaber8659 9 месяцев назад

I have always subscribed to the notion that great solos arise from great rhythms.

@sirtogii5216 9 месяцев назад

Too true. Have been playing about with Maiden's 2 minutes to midnight and the rhythm section behind the solos are very much changing both the pace and mood of the song.

@eddiejr540 9 месяцев назад

Satriani said the very same thing…he said so many people miss his rhythm work underneath the solos👍

Van Halen rhythm parts always had so many little things to capture to even get close while playing the tunes. Great challenges, also love Judas Priest behind the thunder parts... and Dimebag for Pantera... no wonder I love the guitar for my musical instrument to attempt! 🤘👍🎸

@AngelofJustice412 9 месяцев назад

This is so true man. I was just thinking the same thing the other day while I was listening to Supernatural by John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers, one of Peter Green’s most famous guitar parts. Yeah, the long sustained notes by Green are incredibly tasteful, but part of what makes them sound so good are the chord changes in the background. Now you could argue either way whether that’s Green’s genius or the rhythm section, but they have to be taken in conjunction in order for it to sound so good.

Great Vid, I recall thinking - as a guitar nerd teenager - about why the really hot players stood out so amazingly. It hit me that they created the opportunity for themselves in the song writing.

Another great solo that I'm reminded of along these lines is David Gilmour's solo in the Pink Floyd song "Money", where the song switches from 7/8 to 4/4.

@jameslocke9406 9 месяцев назад

Haha love this. I make all my students learn the rhythm under the solo before we even get to the actual solo. So they feel more comfortable and a part of the solo

@hyperbrightstudios 8 месяцев назад

There's some really good points in this, I noticed yesterday when teaching a student the solo for 'The Wind Cries Mary' and the key change in the middle of that solo is on the of the things that make it so effective, and doesn't happen anywhere else in the song.

@minkorrh 8 месяцев назад

The backing chords literally define the emotion of the solo.....i.e. 'modes'. I'm pretty much an ear player, but noticed how the same shape changed it's tonality depending on the chords behind it. Together, they are a literal concert that HAS to be understood to write memorable solo ideas and make people get wet eyes. What I call an 'E-minor'- shape turns into C Lydian with the different chords behind it. The difference is your starting and target notes.

Like an old friend said, a good solo must tell a story, and a good storyteller must know how to use emotions, time and intensity. And having a beautiful voice also helps.

@Ilikewhiskey2112 9 месяцев назад

Eddie’s first note in the Jump solo comes out of nowhere and it was always been so fucking cool to me.

@jsbobek 9 месяцев назад

Please do some Lynyrd Skynyrd, in particular, On The Hunt…a cool groovin tune! Scott Raines does a good break down, but it’s not simple. Scott is a great guitar player and knew a few of the original LS band members. His LS renditions are perfect!

@g3ultra 9 месяцев назад

Miracle Man is brilliant! One of my favorite solos since the first time I heard it the day it dropped. Zakk came busting out of the gate with that song and confirmed his place as a legitimate replacement for Randy and Jake.

@landofahhs_1 9 месяцев назад

Great advice that requires a dedicated method of practice and performance...just look at DiMeola, Pass or Atchins. Though I don't think many self taught blues guitarists use such techniques they still develop techniques and a style that makes their sound their own. Great video!

@wasouthpnt 8 месяцев назад

I always thought that the rhythm that Malcom played behind the solo in Back in Black was what helped make the solo. Listen to how he changes the chord structure to enhance the solo. So good!

@hunedog8693 9 месяцев назад

A good solo like all music can also be the surprise factor, a good key change can provide that imho.

@clemclemson9259 9 месяцев назад

killer vid RB. always LOVE that friggin LP you are paying the burst and the uncovered pickups are so damn my style

@shayh.3556 Месяц назад

Rhythms behind a solo is arguably more important. I can rock some pentatonic licks all day but putting them into context not only with the music but the song is key.

@fpsgamer357 9 месяцев назад

Haven’t even watched it all but the “behind the solo” riff on over the hills and far away is enough to drive its own song if it wanted to.

@MickH60 9 месяцев назад

Yep, most great solo's are over one off riffs in the song, making them fit is a bit of an art form too, I'd love to see a video done on this alone...

There's great guitar solos and great knowledge from them and with that knowledge we should forget it and come out with our own original ideas so we can find ourselves and that means a baseline drums and vocals keyboards and percussion maybe a whole orchestra or wind instruments then we can love that possible energy that makes us love that energy

@allendean9807 9 месяцев назад

As a predominantly singer and rhythm player, my solos always seem to lack that “touch” which lead players have effortlessly. If i have a friend of mine throw a solo down for one of my songs, it’s not really the melody, the feel, the note choices, it’s an intangible, indistinguishable “touch” that good lead players just possess effortlessly. And it’s something you just can’t quantify, but you know it when you hear it.

@johnkendrick7304 8 месяцев назад

Man that is one of the nicest looking Les Paul guitars I've seen in my whole life

@sydwynd 9 месяцев назад

So you're saying it's more about song writing that soloing. Compose a great song with chord, key, or feel changes first. Once the song is fully crafted THEN add a solo where you need one.

@birdsiview6845 9 месяцев назад

The solo can’t happen without the rhythm and bass. And a solo lifts up the key changes as well as being a bridge.

@PawpawJamz 9 месяцев назад

The common thread is don't get busy behind the lead. Hold it together...but, don't step on the guitar. VH, Maiden, Priest..AC/DC..Aerosmith..Journey ..they hold it together melodically but give the lead all the room. Stairway is the perfect example. A, G, F with the A, C, E, D, C walk up is perfect Gives the lead room to breathe. Tonality changes are gold. VH was the master of this.

Jimmy Page? Na too sloppy and IMO his solos are not impressive. At the time the likes of Clapton and Blackmore were way better. Fast forward and now we have so many great players. I must say loads of these have been inspired by Malmsteen and Eddie Van Halen but not Jimmy Page.
