Appreciate the invite, Beanwire! Was very weird having to talk seriously for an extended amount of time 😆

Hi Bradley

[@TheGreatBaronOBeefDip]

Is that a Twin Peaks tattoo on your right hand?

[@travisschuster4676]

I love that solar x type in green.

[@iluvnymphos]

marty friedman on line wire😱😱😱

[@cromemonkey77]

Honestly I had to triple double check if this was actually not one of your videos 😂

[@heethanthen]

When I saw the title in my feed I thought it was another one of Bradley’s satirical parody videos

[@powerslave0606]

Same, just came to watch him impersonate the kind of content or sth.

[@Homie3794]

So did I lmao

[@waltysalamander]

Same

[@sashingopaul3111]

Had to look at who uploaded the video to be sure cause I was also bamboozled

[@maurice7186]

I clicked the video and when I heard the loudwire intro I'm like "wait what?"

[@schmitty8225]

Weird Al looks great for his age and the English accent is spot on.

[@JasonCan-wp2fu]

Marty Friedman got surgery and now looks younger

[@vn00530]

So true, oh well

[@Tybren]

I'd expect nothing less from Bradley. Over an 11 minute video about his favorite riffs, and he managed to play 2 riffs.

[@somethingbl]

His favorite riff: the entire Rust In Peace album

[@SeedOilFitnessOfficial]

He's fluent in Yappanese for sure

[@Scream_Soda172]

so glad to see people like him get featured on loudwire

i didn't realize i needed bradley on loudwire until now

[@ninnyafluffy]

Man, I miss being this determined to play guitar. Played so much guitar when I was younger, literal hours every single day. Nowadays, I barely know what to play anymore. It just doesn't feel the same anymore Hats of to you, Bradley

[@strek45]

I'm very glad Marty Friedman's son was able to establish himself as his own guitarist and personality. I never believed he would get out of his father's shadow

[@SamBrockmann]

Bradley Hall is badass. We need more like him.

[@jacehebert3337]

1:40 is Johnny Kidd & The Pirates "Shakin' All Over", from 1960!

[@mikespearwood3914]

That's the one!

[@andrewpappas9311]

I know the song from The Guess Who's cover, definitely a cool song

[@JonMurray]

@@jacehebert3337 that’s the one mate! A lovely old chap in a local open mic night venue plays it on an absolutely stunning immaculate red strat 👌🏻

[@BradleyHallGuitar]

That's it!! Nice one mate

[@RoRo-vr6wx]

I thought it was sinister purpose by CCR

[@michaelespinosa9168]

No one knows Bradley is Marty Freidman’s son! Well now everybody does. But in all sincerity, that was a very cool well spoken thought out piece with some epic shredding.

[@firemonkey1015]

8:25 this is why I like Bradley, LITERALLY exactly what I did. I basically started on rust in peace and spent weeks just analyzing everything.

[@valenb2839]

Yeah, it was the same to me

My head fell off there man. Awesome to see you on here!

[@JonMurray]

Was really nice to hear your guitar playing journey mate! Great advice too.

[@NeecoNeeco]

I was watching Marty Friedman being interviewed by Rick Beato, and Marty brought up "comedy youtube guitarists", you know he was talking about Beanly. Absolutely awesome. I would love to see them together one day.

[@sunjaya4960]

Bradley is one of my top 3 favorite KZbinrs thanks for making this loudwire

[@alfonso2561]

So happy loudwire offered the chance for bradley to talk about himself. Some of the stuff suprised me and was very interesting

[@RiffSL4YER]

Bradley Hall is definitely one of the best guitarists on KZbin. You can learn a lot from this guy .

[@dwiii1635]

Fun fact: Paul Gilbert was so impressed by Bradley Hall he signed up for a series of guitar lessons a while back. Wild.

[@galatovoskos]

Where did u hear that? That's amazing if true

I thought this was a Bradley hall video and the loud wire part at the end was a joke 😂 well done mate

[@omegament-entertainment]

Man that Crash Bandicoot plush is awesome !!!

[@anish3183]

Well done, Bradley. Hell of a guitarist.

[@krystian_went8537]

solar should make bradley a signature neon green guitar

[@nicolausteslaus]

They should make at least one good guitar. All the solar guitars I played in music stores were like cheap vietnamese noname craplogs,

[@EL_DUDERIN0]

The most useful lesson I've learned lately was Bradley's hand synchronization one. Actual legato helps alternate picking, who knew!

[@andrewpappas9311]

Definitely cool seeing Brad on here, always love watching his videos so this was a pleasant surprise

[@MetalSam11]

It took me two whole minutes to figure out his Nevermind shirt. You are incredible!

[@tobi2219]

can't belive that Brad is here jsjs congrats dude and f*king nice riffs

[@R4y69]

pretty cool seeing youtuber guitarists on loudwire

[@Puff_123]

Bradley was one of my inspirations to play guitar, i love this man and will always appreciate him for inspiring me. THANK YOU BRADLEY!

[@pat6761]

So cool to see him here

[@douglasdbs7139]

I came here for the part where he mentions the master piece Rust in Peace (without watching it I already know there will be one)

[@Shun101010]

The first song is "Shakin' All Over" - The Guess Who (It's one of their early hits and it's a cover but their version was very popular)

[@LocrianDorian]

It's unbelievable how much I can relate to this video as a guitar player.

[@KentRoads]

that pull off song is Back in Black by AC/DC but changed ever so slightly

[@floeflie982]

Please show us your Warhammer Collection!

[@eamonahern7495]

I still have that guitar magazine with Hangar 18. It only tabs to the end of the singing, only Marty's guitar and leaves out the whole second half of the song with the trading guitar solos. Also on that magazine are the intro to Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor and AC/DC's song You Shook Me All Night Long, I think just Angus' guitar parts, not Malcolm's but it's the whole song.

[@foxfire204]

Literally he just play one riff

[@betweenthevelvetlies]

Don't care that he didn't even play his favorite riffs, love Bradley Hall, he's a fuckin legend

[@jonathantheslow]

The biggest revelation is that Bradley is a Warhammer fan. It’s always nice to hear that someone you respect is into that wonderful hobby.

[@jsullivan2112]

Wow he was taught by Peter Green that's fucking wild! Rad as fuck.

[@JeffMasonProject]

The first riff is Shakin All Over by Johnny Kidd and The Pirates :) a hit in 1960

[@CyberPrime56]

I love Bradley, he is the combination of Marty Friedman and weird al

[@gurrenmed5319]

One thing i love about Bradley is he still loves Bands that are mainstream and not entirely fucking obscure with only 2 listeners monthly and with shit quality.

[@nickspears3906]

loudwire finally recognizes this guy 🙏

[@TheStrykerProject]

Beanley!! One of my favorite guitarists that KZbin algorithm'ed to me. Keep flying that shred flag, m'man!

[@royharpershat8059]

Shakin all over is that first riff. (I reckon)1960's. Covered by a large number of bands including Eddie Kidd,The Who, Flamin' Groovies....

[@FusioNNosferatu]

Should be renamed to "Bradley talks about his favorite riffs" XD

[@MittensOnly]

Now I've got to play the entire song Rust in Peace, thanks Loudwire

[@ayrs2024]

I had been waiting for this interview for a while. Glad to finally see it!

[@Insekkton]

The best video you´ve made so far ! Speaking from the heart without clownish stuff. Congrats for your achievments !

[@MetalJody1990]

Ah yes, I remember that Limp Beanzkit song that goes "Nobody knows what it's like... to be the beeeaan man" :P

[@kingnick710]

This is the most normal I've ever seen Bradley act. I think he just faked it for this video though, no way he's actually that normal.

[@SatyamKumar-jq6iz]

Thanks for being completely honest, and the tips!

[@VladimirBrown]

I was going insane here because I had definitely heard that first riff you couldn't remember, but didn't know what it was... Thankfully I finally managed to piece it together and remembered it was "Shakin' All Over" by the Guess Who. It was driving me insane because I knew I knew it, but couldn't remember what the song was.

[@JubaDeMetalAlumínio]

I wish I was more interested in becaming good at the guitar from rhe start. I started because of Ayla Tesler-Mabe, a indie and blues player who was in Calpurnia; I also liked metal, but was kind of a "blank page" about music as a whole, and just didn't care about technique. On the first year, even not playing that well, I started to write songs, because I thought it was too difficult to learn already written metal songs. Time passes, I discovered people like Malmsteen, Petrucci and Timo Tolkki, and, even though the idea of playing that well didn't grow at the time yet, it planted a seed. Nowadays, after becoming familiar with all sorts of metal and playing for 4 years, I'm trying to evolve as soon as possible, so I become able to deliver better songs (I'm still composing, of course) and to play what I like to listen, as well. Bradley certainly achieved both goals.

[@ryan-mo6gy]

I thought bradley just changed his channel name to loudwire

[@The_Guy1337]

Love that you got Bradley on the channel! Great video

[@babytiny5807]

I feel you Bradley, I was into Lady Gaga before I discovered Linkin Park and Slipknot, then it was the early Trivium, As I Lay Dying and Killswitch Engage before I discovered Heart of a Coward which pushed me into 7-8 string music that lead on to modern prog. Now I'm mostly into prog rock. Weird development of music taste

[@bigsad6797]

i had no idea bradley was in a band and i have seen a fair share of his content

I’m a bass player trying to transition to guitar. Getting used to the scale length is a challenge but I wanna be able to play fat juicy riffs

[@demi3057]

I love Bradley hall

[@selflessoscillator]

The very first riff you learned is from Rumble by Link Wray. It was released in 1958 and was an instrumental track. It is the only instrumental song that was banned on the radio because its brash sound was corrupting the precious minds of the youth during that time.

[@PrimarySweeper13]

I completely thought this was one of his vids

[@bentnosewp]

The Who - Shaking All Over... weird, my guitar teacher taught me that as my first riff.

[@musik7466]

Love this!

[@moodmusic4life]

he didnt just model the way he plays guitar around marty he looks EXACTLY like him

[@NikolaSabbath]

OMG! Bradley Hall is a metal head! I didn't know that.

its a strange time as a musical NPC. as a kid i was taken along to see hot chocolate live ( you know, i believe in miraclesss) for some reason and then i gained musical sentience one day and stumbled across kerrang! in 2001 and that was it, game over.

[@Ferdasyn80]

The Owl tattoo over his hand - Twin Peaks Fan?

[@thecrazyhatguy8732]

the first riff he plays is from shakin all over by Johnny kid and the pirates

[@Lovell93]

I liked Green Day too, until yesterday.

[@gavendelrio9193]

Fuck ya Bradley! Love your channel spilling over into more channels!

[@Ripplin]

Love his channel! One of the most fun on the site. Wish I had found it earlier than I did.

You were a weird child Bradley? My child, you are still weird ;) Lova ya content!

[@user-qz5lr8dk3r]

It's called "shakin all over" by Cad Allen and the Expressions... Also called The Guess Who

[@Lulustucru2393]

Funniest metal '' influencer " in my opinion. Never failed to make me laugh hysterically

WTF?! THEY HAVE MY FAVORITE BRITISH MAN ON LOUDWIRE?!?!?!

[@RonanDahlman-ci1ql]

No fucking way you had THAT guy on. I don’t mean it in a bad way, just… look, it’s like walking around seeing everyone in formal clothes, and then seeing Bradley is like finding the one guy wearing an AC/DC shirt and shorts drinking a Coors light.

[@jasonnisbet3766]

"Shakin' All Over" by Johnny Kidd and the Pirates is the song you cannot remember...

[@Rednax_Official]

i thought this was a joke video lmao but it's legit

[@horrorboy81]

Do that, do that and do that!

[@babayaga1767]

That riff is from shaking all over by the guess who

[@Perkelleenkonsta]

I suck at both legato and alternate picking but my comfort zone is kinda in the between. picking more than in legato but picking less than alternate picking

[@newflavaz1583]

Nice one Bradley
