Best show.

Great lesson Jeff and an outstanding live performance. 😁👏👏👏👍

Thank you!!

Great video and love the bit with the band, really very nice indeed.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks!!!

[@musicproductionvideos5019]

Been watching a gospel guy lately, and he uses "G Am G Am G Am" up & down the neck over this type of groove and it works great also! So if G is the "1"... then the Am is the 2m. If you look at it like G is the V, then Am is the vi.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Yup!!

[@millerjeff]

Thanks Jeff. Always great practical applications for all types of music.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks Jeff.

[@erickmo1188]

Always impressive how easily I learn from you sir! Thank you!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you!!

[@bretschwartz]

OH Man....just watching you and your band jam at the end......It gave me the Beck & Knopfler vibe with a heavy dose of "Brothers in Arms!" absolutely loved it!

[@JeffMcErlain]

🙏🏻🙏🏻 two of my favorites. Thank you!

[@samstamos427]

Jeff, that cracked me up at the minute and a half mark, I had to pause to gather myself. Great session; thank you for the bonus stuff at the end. Merry Christmas to you and yours..

[@JeffMcErlain]

Ha! Thanks Sam! Merry Christmas to you as well!

Triads are the key..! Great to have my fingers in the right position for single notes too..Thanks Jeff.!👍🏼❤️

[@Brudnlaw67]

Soo tasteful!! Love your playing Jeff!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you Randy!!

[@adyuriar]

Thanks Jeff! I appreciate your teaching style. I’ve learned much on the few episodes I’ve watched. You explain things I’m hearing sound good but I don’t understand where to go. Helps tremendously!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks Dave! I appreciate you letting me know! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@backauf]

I've been dining out on your Greasy Fingers #4 lick (and other licks) for the past decade - whenever a mixolydian moment comes around. You outline easily understandable roadmap in this course.

[@JohnHorneGuitar]

Great lesson! One of my "triadic heroes" is Mike Post he used them so well in all of those 80's tv show themes, Hill Street Blues, etc.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks John!

[@davidsheriff9274]

Larry Carlton takes a nice solo on the hill street blues song.

[@TheBhannah]

Your videos are always awesome !

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you Allen!

[@jpaw1325]

Incredible playing at the end Jeff! Sounded great. Really felt like it was coming from the soul, dialed in. Would love to see more footage with the band. Great lesson as always. Thank you!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you!!

[@limpindug]

Thanks for the wee lesson your graft a and sharing. I've got a bug up my arse the now about views numbers and thanks thumbs-up numbers. 👍👍👍Respect to you mate

[@mykneeshurt8393]

It probably isn't at all , but I'm hearing "hot blooded" by Foreigner. Great lesson, Jeff!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Yup. That’s totally it!

[@bluebirdamplification3026]

Great lesson Jeff, and any I say nice guitar tone and a very nice Strat you got there! Merry Christmas mate👍

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks you! Merry Christmas to you as well!!

[@IronSwan-ll5ju]

So far I've seen you play a killer LP and a vintage sunburst strat and now this black one. You have some nice guitars, I also try to collect the 60s spec strats.

[@garrrrrryyy]

You are awesome Jeff thank you so much awesome playing my man cool you inspire me to be better player

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you Gary and you are quite welcome.

[@garrrrrryyy]

@@JeffMcErlain my pleasure thanks so much , just keep these awesome lessons going 👍👍

[@johnmac8084]

So true Jeff. Great for soloing too as you know where your chord tones are

[@JeffMcErlain]

Yup!

[@GitShiddy]

I very recently found the epiphany that comes from triads & co-relating them to keys/scales and can say it's the first leap I've had in my playing in ages. Very much a "Oh that's what I've been trying to do". Also, with regards to the how to resolve/end on this loop, my inclination (right or wrong) is hit the V chord/triad for a faux power chord like ear grab.

[@sagebrushcoyote]

This was really useful; this is the kind of progression I want to make with my guitar playing. Much appreciated.

[@JeffMcErlain]

That’s great to hear! Thank you for letting me know, I appreciate it!

[@ae3898]

Loving your new Strat. The big headstock has always been my object of longing , because Hendrix.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks. Yeah the Jimi thing is a big part of it, and Yngwie!

[@teachmeguitar4149]

I love that you mentioned The Rover. Thats my absolute favorite song. Could you ever show us how to play it? There arent many lessons on youtube for it.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks! I don’t really teach song on YT actually, that would mean I’d have to learn them! 😂

[@ObjectiveDynamics]

@@JeffMcErlain 🤣I like your logic

[@teachmeguitar4149]

Thanks for even responding man. Appreciated

[@glh1956]

Terrific lesson as always Jeff great content interesting concepts as always - great clip from the tour! 🙌🎶🎸👏

[@WayneMemphisMojo]

I've been doing something similar from the start due to learning guitar through the Van Epps method (not recommend BTW). I am excited that more people and instructors like yourself are teaching this.

[@hokahey8051]

Hi Jeff, I love your lessons! About the course: is it theory and basics mostly (shapes, notes, etc.) or more on different concepts and appying them? Thank you!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks! The course is pretty nuts and bolts of working though the C F G triads and all the inversions on 3 adjacent string sets. Upcoming courses will take the stuff further but this one is about learning them. Hope that helps!

[@hokahey8051]

@@JeffMcErlain Yes that helps a lot, thank you. I already know major triads on every string set but making music out of them is like black magic;) If you release a course on that - I'm in:)

@@hokahey8051 it’s coming!

[@danobrien8407]

Very cool.

Thanks for the lesson, Jeff. An hour spent on triads is an hour well spent, always.

This is true my friend!

[@aminahmed2220]

What a fantastic video have a good weekend

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you and to as well!

[@glennmartin4232]

You can hear this used in Steely Dan reelin in the years. Same thing but it’s G-A and solo in A mixolydian. Awesome stuff Jeff

[@JeffMcErlain]

Yes! It’s all over the place!! Especially once you know what it is!

[@lastofthe4horsemen279]

Once again The Most Dangerous Man in Music comes thru.This and using secondary dom6inate chords has really expanded my rythm playing Thank Jeff ( is that your new Stratvin the jam section its a real looker and the tone is magic)

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you!!

[@pappyodanial]

Hey what model strat is that? Love the rosewood/big headstock! Looks like nice dark Brazilian too

[@JeffMcErlain]

It’s a 2016 Michael Landau 1968 reissue. Not Brazilian but a nice dark Indian board.

[@Vaxeii]

Hello Jeff, are there charts of the triads or just tabs? Thanks

[@DevanSabaratnam]

Time to take off my oven mitts and go practice my triads!!

Lol!! You know I was thinking about that a few days ago!

Yup!! Now I need to go to a wedding!

[@alessiograziani6355]

@@JeffMcErlain ahahaha!! I bought your course about Diminished Scales on TrueFire. You are a great teacher,you explained perfectly everything. I really appreciate the trick you suggest to undestand when starting the lick on the off beat. Thanks a lot

[@Arthur_My_Dear]

G, C and F only happen in the key of C, right? And G mixolydian is the 5th mode of C? So you play in the key of C, but starting on the G note

[@JeffMcErlain]

You got it!

[@9418matthew]

Great lesson although I don't agree the G7 strum thing sounds bad to me lol
