Joel Paterson - Scotty Moore Sun Session Solos

I was overseas at the time of Scotty Moore's passing, I didn't get to pay one of my biggest guitar influences a proper tribute. It's a little late, but here is every Scotty Moore solo from the Elvis Sun Sessions, and a big thank you to a true giant of American music, whose mix of country blues and Chet Atkins style fingerpicking single-handedly invented rockabilly and truly was the guitar that changed the world. Rest in peace, Scotty!

What would it take for today's musician to PAY ATTENTION to these kinds of wondrous music. Salute to Scotty!

Unbelievable playing. In my humble opinion this is a lot more impressive than shredding. That tone just makes you want to MOVE!!

[@harrylime5147]

CHlEFFIN ...I can shred but I can’t do this

[@haro82]

I agree 100%. I could listen to this style all day.

[@oddjobtriumph1635]

Shredding is for people who are not Musical.... you can't hide behind loads of distortion and effects why you play old school....

[@joebush1663]

@@oddjobtriumph1635 I had that conversation with my brother just today - shredding is non-musical.

Elvis meeting up with scotty was perfect timing, just like lennon and McCartney meeting, the stars all in perfect alignment

[@564df6g5h4d6f5g4h6d5]

For Elvis it was. Scotty got totally boned by the Colonel on the money and was forced to leave soon after.

Man do I love that palm muted sound... I’ve went from metal, to Zep, to The Beatles, into Bob Dylan, now it’s time to start digging back into the 50’s!!! -96’er

It’s great to be able to see these classic solo’s being played and the craftsmanship that’s involved. These guitar solo’s are timeless and will always live on. Thanks for letting us see what’s really going on … 👍👍🎸

[@GD7Music]

Masterful!! As good as it gets. Scotty lives on in you. Not just the right notes, inversions, also the touch, the sound, the finesse. You have set the bar and done me and guitarists everywhere a great service. I will be watching and studying this for years to come. Thank You.

[@seanmeisner3190]

Everything GD7 said. Love it. Thank you.

[@brianwood7237]

And there you go kids just about everything you need to know about rockabilly guitar very nice sir

[@Danny-mn8nm]

I have watched this video over and over, I never get tired of hearing it, You are a great player and you have nailed that vintage rockabilly Sun records sound, right down to the original guitar Scotty used in the beginning,Gibson ES-295, not to mention the thumb pick technique. Thank you

[@axiomist1076]

You sure are good. A master. This goes to show Elvis was a down home country boy and Scotty was playing souped up country licks to fit Elvis's style and moves. And the kids just ate it all up. I first heard this stuff when I was 8 years old , in Cuba and it changed my life forever. Still love it and you bring it all back. Thanx a million. And thanx a million to Scotty, the original.

[@neogeoriffic]

As a former Elvis Impersonator I recognized every single one of those solos and let me say you've played them all to perfection!

[@Think632]

And he did that without stopping in between!

You are truly an inspiration to all of us who admired Scotty. I had the fortune to work with him a few times in Nashville at his studio. I ask him to show me the guitar solo on Hound Dog. It took a couple of swigs off the old bottle, but he finallyremembered. I'm was truly blessed and thankyou again.
