Hey guys! Its Uncle Ben Eller back again with a new episode of Weekend Wankshop! The other day on my Patreon page, my man Kasper suggested i do a lesson on how to improve crosspicking speed. He used the chorus section of Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow song "The Man on the Silver Mountain" as an example of a hurdle he was trying to overcome. I checked it out, and it seemed like a perfect thing to break down on Weekend Wankshop!
So this song features some 3 string 16th note arpeggios on the high strings, and with the moderate tempo of 107 BPM, its a GREAT place to get started with this technique before you move onto more ferocious things like Tumeni Notes by Steve Morse.
In this video, i'm going to first show you the arpeggios he's playing, then give you some insight on how to improve your crosspicking, then show you how to master licks like this by learning each 4 note segment as a single "chunk" of muscle memory, and how to make it a repeatable, reliable part of your playing! Its everything you need!

Ben I want you to know, although I joke about the punisher, it's seriously the best damn exercise I've ever found! I'm forever grateful to you for showing it to us...that combined with my Petrucci signature Flow picks is the reason I will never again play at stepdad speed! 😆

What Ritchie has is the most graceful fluid finger movement on the fret board, it's like a dance, I've not seen anyone else play like that.

I've been working at this passage for literally years. I am FINALLY getting it nearly up to speed. Plenty of little tips here helping me out, like the palm muting and the anchoring. Also I was playing the final two triads in the wrong position, the A shape up at 8 and 10. Much harder and a bit dumb of me... 😁 But this middle section is probably even harder than the actual solo, which is saying something!

I love Ritchie...and I've studied his style for decades. Yea, he loves the triad arpeggios; uses them a lot. I'm teaching "Ariel" as we speak, and it has a beautiful arpeggio sequence in the outro. Regarding fingering and potential "bleeding;" Ritchie is masterful at right hand damping. He creates such sweet tone through subtle damping. So, I wouldn't rule out some 1-finger/barre fingering with him; he controls the 'bleeding' with that aforementioned right hand. Nice lesson; thanks for sharing.

Hey Ben. Thanks so much for this one. Been a Blackmore fan since I first heard "Hush" on the A.M. radio. Yeah, a while back. I'm just learning, and your tips on palm muting are very helpful. Something I knew about but couldn't quite make work. So good of you to share. I saw the man play live, and have watched all the footage I could find. He picked each note so clean, and with such melodic style. I have seen and heard many legendary players; Richie Blackmore still tops my list.

Way cool lesson Ben! How about Richie's solo in Lazy? Not the live one where he forgets where he is and just stops. :-) I think Richie is a great blues player, but most people think of his "neo-classical" playing and neglect his blues feel and playing, which is a shame.

@seanandben

@@kasperfauerby7389 I agree - there are lots of great solo's by Richie on Machine Head, and a lot of them make great picking exercises - Highway Star being a good example. I learned the solo from Lazy many moons ago, and it's mainly blues and pentatonic scale phrases, but played very fast! Richie's vibrato is very unique, and it's worth noting that he doesn't use the middle pickup on his strat's at all. In fact, more often than not he removes it and just puts an empty cover in its place. His Fender "tribute" or signature strats have no middle pickups.

this was one of the hardest guitar parts for me, i learned this song over a year ago and regularly practiced the arpeggio section then would get frustrated couldn't get it up to speed. then once i'm able to play it at tempo but just this section alone it's all good until i try to play the entire song then i get to this section and choke.

@kirkbolas4985
@kirkbolas4985 4 года назад
You are correct. Ritchie indeed was cross picking during the execution of those motifs. I’m also a bassist and when cross picking on guitar, my wrist is using the same rotation motion as when I play slap and pop a la Larry Graham or Bootsy Collins. Using a metronome helps build precision with increasing speed.

The resting mute is SO weird for me, but makes sense. When i think of muting I think mostly of dead notes, muffling, or chugs, as a prog metal/jazz player. For silence, that's like tonal rocket science, but seems so simple. Nice lesson dude.

@davidzamora9973
@davidzamora9973 4 года назад
The "turning a key" analogy didn't quite work for me when I was starting with cross picking. What made it click for me mentally was thinking of sitting at a table and "brushing" crumbs away from me for down strokes and "brushing" crumbs towards me for upstrokes. Like the motion you would use to brush crumbs off a table you are sitting at. I think this worked better for me because when we turn a key our arm is extended as opposed to when we brush crumbs away from us at the table our arm is bent like when we play guitar. At the end of the day it's the same motion. I was just losing the mental picture/idea of the motion I wanted on the way from turning the key in the door to plucking the frickin' string. I'm not trying to knock the key analogy. I'm just trying to give another option. :) cheers! And of course, great lesson!
