Andy is a gem. I took lessons with him for a short while. What a great guy and a great teacher.

[@Ronno4691]

I like Mr Aledort a lot. The subject matter he chooses to explain and how he does it is always so articulate and concise. A laconic personality that projects well!

[@marcbudicin]

One of my favorite online guitar teachers

[@brucekoch6962]

All I want is Andy's knowledge, experience, dexterity and that guitar. Anyone else?

[@keithnihan9025]

ANDY-ANDY!ANDY!!!!

Dude...I've been watching your blues videos...they have been really great...keeping the solos all about note placement and the timeing on when to do your lick...Thanks

[@pauljohnson1065]

When I get to these, I like to listen to the whole thing, sans guitar in hand. Then watch and play. Andy's great! Learning inversions with triads is where it's at. Makes 2 chord vamps way more interesting, and allows for licks in time with the changes!

[@dylanbepis570]

great video! cool way of figuring out what notes to use for licks

[@NateBriggs1212]

excellent video! thank you Andy

[@bobeialexandru6011]

[@graxjpg]

I came here because zappa did great and mighty things within two chords as a soloist. Thanks for this!

[@kevinclose5840]

great lesson thank you

Excellent work Andy. What you are demonstrating is at the heart of expressive music. Your guitar may look like it has been over the road but it has killer mojo, plus it looks nearly new compared to D.B. Bryant's strat. :-)

[@lawsonlawson1504]

Good stuff!!!

[@HectorSuxxx69]

Andy is a legend

[@georgehudson1991]

Love Andy

[@odgeUK]

This is useful for looking at 'Can't Always Get What You Want', which goes from I-IV (C-F) for the most part.

[@georgehudson1991]

Thank you

[@pablocancinos3835]

Are there any tabs available??

[@jezzbass1826]

Thank u

[@MOAB-UT]

Nice guitar. What scale did you use for your improvisation- minor pentatonic?

[@hawg427]

Wonder why his 7th fret marker is partially blacked out?

[@tonymikolich5873]

I've strummed that very guitar. the dot actually has fallen out of its place

[@ashtweth]

You will all be playing Blues rock when you get to our age so you better start listening to Andy now LOL

[@fabghassem]

✨🍃💫

[@imannonymous7707]

The hideaway chord cool Rory Gallagher would love that strat I know I do.... and I hate most strats

[@jeremirussell6739]

that guitar looks older than dirt surprised it still works lol

[@imannonymous7707]

That's why it's so resonant...the finish is all gone...its cool as hell......ever seen rory Gallaghers strat ?

[@tombaker8045]

season of the witch .

[@Botscarblues]

Killer, 666th view ;)

[@dannyhood66]

I'm sure Andy' is a lot older than me, I'm only 50, but I could never look like this and get away with. Probably lot easier on east coast. Laughin!

[@Piedscooter1]

I feel sorry for you.

[@dannyhood66]

Piedscooter1 Why?

[@rickbellet6263]

@@dannyhood66 Cuz it's completely friggn irrelevant and inappropriate...that's why

[@wolandsmachine]

[@poundtacos4006]

What's a vamp? Lol

[@dannyhood66]

Exactly, Wtf is a vamp?

[@dannyhood66]

Danny Hood I like the the E7 chord, but still this is jamming over E7 and A7?

[@dannyhood66]

Danny Hood nothing more.
