This is a quintessential rockabilly solo. You could use it for practically anything and sound authentic.

Who dislike this? Randy youre the best!

Great lesson! I love your teaching methods, those old rock and roll solos laid the foundations of much that was to follow. Many of the big rock guitar players of the 60s and 70s cut their teeth learning them note for note from recordings. Their playing in turn influenced yet another generation and so it continues.

This is a great song, a Jerry Lee Lewis classic! It would also be very interesting to get a lesson on James Burtons solo in Elvis´ cover version.

Nice , Dave Yorko from Johnny & The Hurricanes was another who made the most of these short & sweet type solos

[@petercousins1645]

Thanks for message Randy (like the lesson too)

[@rarerockk]

Wow, very good.

[@Alex16993]

Great as always, thank you! Could you do the solo of Blue Suede Shoes the way Carl Perkins played it in the late 60s with Johnny Cash? For example the version live at Madison square garden 1969? I'd love to see that because it's very special and unique in my opinion. :)

I saw a live version from 2017 and when he played solo I saw him move into the 5th fret to finish the solo and he played close to the original it might have been Lovelace who played with him a lot I hope this helps I enjoy your videos

[@lucasolari3756]

yes, the guitarist was Kenny Lovelace!

Hi Alex, thank you very much for your comment and request. I'm concentrating on the 1950s though as this is the music that really love and the only music I play at home and live. I hope you understand. Best Wishes
