[@METALATTACK]

Guitar loving friends I'm promoting my new album "Lost in the world" available in its entirety, free of charge on this same channel in the playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLQ5fhDqdurZTN5T-R5CwmYD4dCZ2YXWPX Help me by watching, commenting and sharing. 🙇🙏🙌🎸🔊🎶🇧🇷

[@scottwaszak698]

this guy, in my opinion, is the greatest combination of vocalist-guitarist ever; world class in both departments.

[@AlexGuitarock]

+Scott Waszak + the other instruments he plays as well.

[@victordiesel]

+Scott Waszak I completely agree. Richie Kotzen is the greatest guitar player among all the lead singers in the whole world. Also is the greatest singer among all the lead guitar player this side of mars. Is just awesome.

[@AlexGuitarock]

***** Lets say one of the

[@victordiesel]

+electrixladyland69 Clearly you don't read my comment very well. Please try again. We are not talking about guitarrist who doesn't sing at high level like Richie does. We are not talking about singers who doesn't play guitar at hight level like Richie neither. As far as i know Govan can't sing.

[@fenderstrathm2148]

+Scott Waszak I prefer Gary Moore big times but unfortunately he's no longer with us....and btw Mr Dan Huff (Giant) imho is a way better singer and guitar player than RK :)

[@Jak.2107.]

Ричи, мастер. Замечательная техника. И мелодичность в фразах. 👍👏🎼🎶🎸🎩🙋‍♂️😉🤝

[@viewmontautos]

FANTASTIC TALENT,,,,HE HAS IT ALL.WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE KZbin .FREE LESSON.THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO DO THIS VIDEO.

[@EarthBlue2]

WOW what a really excellent music instructional video!!! Thanks for sharing your talent..

[@frontman62]

Richie could play or sing with anyone, very versatile....

[@jtrode]

Richie, love your playing, its kick ass, you from Philly I'm from Syracuse up 81, rock on brother!

[@Modes9]

There's nothing wrong with his teaching approach. He's assuming you're already intermediate to advanced and have been studying for a while. Honestly, you wouldn't know who he was or care unless you were fairly advanced.

[@Modes9]

What sets Ritchie and some of my other favorites (like Larry Carlton) apart is that they have a harmonic sense and outline chords with their lines. It sounds like he heard a lot of great keyboard and horn players at some point.

[@lordsong7]

gorgeous tone! super cool chops love that tele!

[@olshov111]

Great musician!!!! New York is waiting for you!!!!

[@billyzoom1]

What an articulate and reflective musician. A breath of fresh air.

[@MichaelJeffrey]

Most underrated musician on the planet! Nuno was recently asked to name a top 5 most underrated. He should've mentioned Richie for sure!

[@brandonkejick4130]

Not surprising. As much as I like Nuno's playing, he's like a little boy still trying to get respect from Satch, Vai, Yngwie, etc..., he recently played with Satch and Kotzen... dude, Nuno's playing is linear style "shredder", while Richie was more "feel" for the groove with some awesome tasty licks.....and Satch...well..he's the Gandalf of guitar! lol

[@mhollandtag]

This is the best guitar instructional video ever !! Richie is The Master !

[@fransvenrooy4760]

Yeeez he was a absolutely wonderful guitar player when he was young and still is going strong today. Although he stays in the US this year. THE GREATEST OF ALL. 🎸

[@PaulGilbertrulezzz]

This guy will always be one of my favorite guitarists.

[@JefferyMahlum]

This is an excellent tutorial. He does touch on many basics, But it's good to be re-introduced to some things some of us may have lost on the way.

[@evandrojcm]

Muito boa a didática do Richie!

[@fredandpattychandler4130]

Love the Winery Dogs, Richie. Good luck.

[@mosamaranti]

he has a very good taste and can create beautiful arpeggios and lines

[@nevigo5519]

Since his first poodlehair video,he has really improved in actually everything,music, gear etc.

[@clevelandbrown5709]

what a phenomenal player! I knew he was good but that intro jam was pretty legendary

[@bobbell1953]

He's grounded. And understanding. He's going farther..as a human being and a musician.

[@rukka99]

Un prodige!! Y en a vraiment repris depuis POISON des années 80' !!

[@Goldensk8t]

Dude! Love the Open played with fretted notes. Session musician dream tip. Thank you Richie.

[@AshRavens]

where is it exactly?

[@joehoffman3804]

Discovered you last night for the first time.Why you're not world famous is beyond me.

[@logansomma6283]

Dude he is world famous... just Google Richie kotzen. he used to play with poison. I don't care for poison but if you've never heard of them you live under a rock in a 3rd world trailer park

[@paolo-1283]

After poison he also played with mr. big after paul gilbert left, he has projects with Greg Howe (mind blowing fusion) as well and other blues jazz fusion bands. Listen to his earlier records you'll be blown away how much of a jason becker-ish, steve vai-sh he used to play, and he also played as guest on guthrie's erotic cake album. Now with winery dogs is even better, he already done it all.

[@andreasyayan]

i came here because of The Winery Dogs. Love 'em so much!! Kotzen's super-awesome!

[@TheFutureVirtuoso]

His style has changed so much since then. I'm not sure which I prefer. I really like his jazz fusion shred stuff, but I also like his newer, more vocal focused stuff. I'd have to say that as a guitarist I probably prefer old Kotzen to new Kotzen.

[@ronniejdio9411]

Richie is one of those incredible guitarist w worlds of talent that no one enjoys listening to as much as he likes listening to himself

[@frankie.d1127]

Allan Holdsworth, Shawn Lane, Guthrie Govan, Greg Howe, and Richie Kotzen-

[@zafira976]

What about Scott Henderson, Alen Hinds, Robben Ford, Shane Theriot, Vinnie Moore, Brett Garsed, and T.J Helmerich...?

[@frankie.d1127]

My apologies- I wasn't trying to imply theses are the only guys. I was just simply expressing my personal favorites. Those gentlemen are exceptionally talented and amazing as well

[@rohadtanyad8908]

+Georgios Karaspyros you mention tj and brad and leave off andy timmons?

[@zafira976]

Don't get me wrong man, Andy Timmons is great! Fantastic feel (second to none), good note presentation, good fast lines but...having heard three of his albums I realised he lacks in improvisational medium fast lines. It's not a bad thing, it's just one of the trades of a pure rock player that writes his solos as pure improvisation is not part of their playing

[@AJDOLDCHANNELARCHIVE]

Allan Holdsworth and Shawn Lane might never be surpassed in my opinion.

[@jweberc]

This instructional is pure gold ✨️

[@KeithMoonbeat]

Didn't know what a great player Richie K. really is ! Humble guy he seems to be , too .

[@Michaelfromfremont]

Ritchie is a great combo- singer/player! For the guys who want to really see another AMAZING player, who is not so well known, but DEFINETLY should be... You owe it to yourself to investigate , Greg Koch - rhymes with "chalk". Joe Bonamassa calls Greg the BEST all around player in the world!! That's a pretty big set of shoes to fill, especially coming from Joe himself!!! I dig Ritchie, and The Winery Dogs!!! Best 3 piece ROCK band around!!! Regards all

[@theblindsniper]

I'm liking how he's not really sticking to one thing: in this video, it's like he's giving us a choice as a player like "Well here's something you may like, it sounds cool, it can improve your playing! Oh, you don't like it? Well it's okay!!! Here's more techniques!" What makes the techniques/licks worth learning though is the cool concept of tweaking it to give it a different kind of sound. Cool video! And I'm only 15 minutes in hahaha

[@dockaiser]

criminally gifted man ...

[@tdc720]

I'd sell my soul to play like Kotzen

[@wisanggenibimasena3310]

apik tenan kowe... jan joss...

[@staffaccess3602]

He is also a great teacher.

[@Skankhair333]

This is the first of Richie Kotzen I have seen. Amazing! Reminds me a little of Scott Henderson mixed with Steve Morse. Thanks uploader. I will look into his work.

[@watsonj13]

A song can suck, but have an excellent guitar solo that makes up for the sucky song. Happens all the time. This guy is fantastic.

[@fernandaalines]

Favorite guitarist!

[@VICTORFERREIA1987]

Sério? Muito bom gosto, Richie é um Gênio. Ele está namorando a baixista brasileira Julia lage,,,

[@fernandaalines]

Is he? I didn't know that! He's amazing. Have seen him live twice and it's never enough! :)

[@fernandaalines]

Hahaha! Desculpa, Victor! Só vi agora que seu comentário estava em português. Meu Chrome traduziu automático, por isso respondi em inglês antes. ^^

[@VICTORFERREIA1987]

Fernanda Aline Souza Não tranquilo, meu inglês é bom. Também não sabia disso, descobri há pouco. Eles estão namorando já faz uns 3 anos. O nome dela é Julia Lage, ela é baixista e das boas por sinal. Os dois estão tocando juntos. Pra min ele é um do maiores compositores vivos...

[@fernandaalines]

VICTOR FERREIRA Acabei de conferir aqui. É verdade! E ela é muito talentosa, mesmo. Ela está no último clipe do Kotzen, inclusive. :)

[@jamaguitar699]

hey are there any tab files for this video of the different licks to download some where ? . I saw that each time he did something new it had a title in roman numerals that came up on the screen . Let me know the camera angle is a little vague to get the full lick with out rewinding the video 20 times I would like the tabs for this video

[@superagnitio]

Thanks you so much for this, Wellington!

[@evalex71]

I would love to see a collaboration of Richie and Nuno

[@rioguitarsstudio7886]

Richie wins

[@keithsa41]

thanks for posting.. Richie is an amazing talent!

[@ZloiD1986]

sound of single's is so sweeeeeeet!! Humbucker is another goody sound too!

[@daggergblue]

That TONE! Fantastic,

[@timothyholmes4588]

this is great . Richie is a fuckin master.i love learning his licks. the interview is cool too.

[@levi5073]

Thanks youtube recommendations. This guy is amazing, but this kind of jazz fusion random chrono guitar bores me to death.

[@1971SuperLead]

The Telecaster is an awesome guitar. It's got an awesome vibe. It's very soulful. It can cry and sing. Can an Ibanez make you cry? Songwriters tend to grab their Tele for inspiration. It's hard to play anything on it without being moved. I should buy one.

[@TommyBrothers75]

He still throws in the George Lynch vibrato once in a while.

[@jhnsn56]

When I'm asked what guitar should be used to build chops, ears and so on, my point is try the Tele and the history tells the rest,Ritchie proves my point!

[@chrismorse3862]

I've got a lot of guitars, half of them shred pieces, but keep finding myself on the Mexican Tele, tiny 21 frets and all. Especially unplugged, it's all you need; but with a nice high gain amp it can do about anything.

[@guidobottazzo]

Kotzen and Bettencourt my all time fav players.

[@GabeTreiyer]

Mine too!!!!

[@mojopin70]

Kotzen is way better than Bettencourt technically.

[@GregLynn]

Tab book anywhere? That intro solo is awesome.

[@LucasFernandesSilveira]

Thanks man u save some lifes! I was seeking this full video for months! =D

[@anorangepick]

Actually, all the fundamentals talk he goes through is great for beginners, man. Give it a try!

[@Nickizang]

perfect gt . rock ann blues jazz fusion over all.

[@dannyb6618]

Thanks for sharing, awesome 🤘

[@wungabunga]

I didn't realise him and Jack White looked so alike. Thanks for the vid by the way!

[@Muzzer27]

Richie looks even cooler with the bass than with the guitar. Nice :)

[@gkbhai8962]

I really like this guy.

[@soufeliz59]

Virge! Isso 'ta muito legal,muito obrigaduuuu

[@69brockstar]

Thanks for the vid !!!

[@dejorage]

such smooth licks. mmm, tasty. those little slides in between the runs are muy bueno

[@timothylee6859]

thanks for the free lesson. you need to mention the blues.

[@leftoverture1976]

Obg Wellington, excelente video.

[@MuhamadHeyckel]

even from the intro.. my mouth cant stop sayin' WOWWW

[@SuperGuitarNerd]

I haven't watched this in years, & I fuckin' love Richie, but as I remember the top comment on this vid used to be something along the lines of - "Hi, I'm Richie Kotzen, & I'm gonna show you how to roll a blunt." xD

[@nethbt]

Wished he didn't use a delay tho, this is not a studio recording but a video tutorial where it is crucial for all the notes to be heard

[@Peterplayingguitar]

Love Ritchie's playing but i still don't understand why he plays a Telecaster. Someone please explain it to me!!!

[@CantingHalo]

I once accidentally played that intro. That awkward moment when you come up with something someone else has done before...

[@sebaportesi2532]

3:13 amazing 😱

[@lerlo]

Actually he is good, had a second listen.

[@paulgtarist]

Wow! This guy actually joined Poison! lol. That's like Charlie Parker joining the Coasters.lol

[@MrMorganturk]

Ok that's it. Ritchie, you absolutely have to put out a fusion record. Pleeease!

[@francescocaridi]

oh thank you so much

[@dennoow]

What's the song in the beginning? Richie Kotzen is one of the very few who can combine shred with decent melody :) Amazing musician and great guitarist!

[@fransvenrooy4760]

And his famous Telecaster now. 🎸👹🎶🎶❤️❤️

[@POLYMATHCENTRAL]

thanks am sure to pick up on a lot of skill from this video

[@harryguitarandmore]

fantastic Player!!

[@6stringmob]

Thank u uploadr.i needed this.

[@pramesh.gurung]

1:17:20 great sequence

[@groovebrew]

I still cannot believe this poor guy was in Poison

[@Cobra0710]

And worse, fired from Poison (for boinking the drummer's fiance).

[@Timanator]

@@Cobra0710 That was the only memorable Poison Album!

[@CARETAKER89able]

Can see why he got bored playing with poison.

[@armff4817]

+Johnny Marlin i think that he for a long time have been under a grey area, he is the kind of rock guitarplayer that begins to flert in jazz area, not a jazz player, very clear and noticiable, not suitable for a complete jazz player, but already outside and too far to saty only at the rock genre..sorry about my english!

[@mcrekkr]

Where can I get this on DVD or something like that?

[@ShredReviews]

I had the .pdf, now I can watch the video. Many thanks :)

[@musicaficta1]

you are a good person

[@Eduardot12345556]

just look at that thing, it's a damn beauty

[@nevilvfelt3942]

Vai has really influenced many guitarists.That little descending slide has become popular.

[@aaronbergAPB]

Very nice!

[@lucasmarchiori2102]

O man this is awesome.

[@jamesflickinger1363]

Genius.........................

[@Guitarguy-55]

thanks for this man i learned alot!

[@Weloz92]

To everyone: wich Richie's instructional video do you prefer, this or Rock Chops?

[@wblakesx]

nice touch

[@andyforguitar]

Grandioso! dove sei stato fin'ora? sei bravissimo!

[@ivansabata4378]

is a good time for learn some think!!!!

[@newbobor51]

Outstanding!

[@METALATTACK]

sorry for the low resolution, but in my time it was vhs copies of copies of copies in black and white but still shoddy and learned a lot from watching video lessons! desculpe pela baixa resolução, mas no meu tempo era vhs copia da copia da copia em preto e branco má qualidade mas mesmo assim assistia e aprendia muito com video aulas!

[@KevinSmithdc]

I think if you told that to Richie, he'd laugh his ass off. Steve Morse is widely regarded as one of the scariest fusion monsters who ever walked the Earth. Guys like John Petrucci worship him.
