Best part, GH's tricks are : - the power of 5th and octave (from pentatonic scale). - use odd note group (7 note, or 5 or 9), go back and forth from one CAGED shape to another. - the power of 4th (tips, whenever you meet a whole step, add chromatic to it). it start from 9:22 Those tricks are very valuable, maybe even the basic of GH's style, since we see alot of first finger slide.
I was lucky enough to take a bunch of in-person lessons from GH in PA in the early 2000s. He was the greatest teacher and unlocked musical theory for me so easily! I cherish my recorded lessons and am still listening to them almost 20 years later…
that "octave and 5th trick" is fun, and alot of things can develop from there. Maybe it is GH's biggest secret tool! now I understand where the idea of jump start intro comes from.
I learned couple of licks from his songs(Kick it all over and jumpstart), really opened my eyes to what guitar playing could be. Greg is terrific, humanity is blessed to have Greg.
Thank you Greg,the first two lessons you gave were sequences that have eluded me for years and years,now I can learn from them♥️☺️happy today.You are one of the best ever.
Thanks you my friend Greg, its one of the best ever class. I was at your show in Israel tel aviv. thanks for doing it and giving all of us with love you mind. you inspired me more then any musician. God Bless you.
Big fan of his since 89/90. Was a fan because 1- love gits and 2 - because there was a shortage of black rockers and axe grinders (Jimi Hazel of 24-7 Spyz, Fishbone, Living Colour) so dig him and the band with his brother. Good to see Greg is still out!!
Hey my good friend. I have all your work from way back. You inspired my playing immensely - I gotta catch up on you're CDs - Hope you're still friends with Richie - Them days great days ..Travers days too ...you drove me brother! Right on! I hear your style big time. It's burnt into m my guitar brain :) I'm sure I stole some licks from ya - hahahaha. Gotta hide that stuff - somehow.
@@davehenry01 thx Dave! I see...in the other hand "musicial disagreement" use to be the most comon version no matter what's underneath, once good people usually tend to keep the bads out of the spotlights, something that I respect indeed. Anyway I feel sorry for them, I love their work.
You gotta like hearing outside playing first but play notes that arent in key in passing so just pass over them quickly and to land back in key preferably on a chord tone try playing in a scale a half step up or half step below then back in key
