[@rasersharp9744]

Seen a hurdy gurdy? It predates the guitar and is a string instrument. If you haven't check it out, it made me think like guitars must have devolved into simpler instruments, but now the age of electronics is kickstarting it forward again. You're right though. Guitar is beautiful

[@MisterRorschach90]

When I was 16 years old I took morphine for the first time recreationally and stayed up all night randomly trying to learn crazy train. By the end of the night I could play the entire song perfectly. But by the end of the day after taking a nap to make up for lost sleep, I forgot how to play the solo right.

LSD is the most insane performance enhancer for guitar and other musical instruments. Seriously it's ridiculous how much better it makes you. Instantly you understand every note on the board, your timing becomes perfect, your precision and techniques are amplified to an absurd degree and you just get in the zone like nothing else exists. Highly recommend to anybody who has interest in psychedelics and instrument playing.

As soon as you said Crazy Train, I knew EXACTLY the part you were gonna use (as soon as you said it was in the main verse, anyway) My teacher showed me this song when I was about 15. When I was about 20 or 21 I finally got that lick after his 2nd run through the verse riff. A few years later I learned the bass riff for guitar because I just love the rhythm the bass uses to back the solo. Ive always slopped my way through the tapping, but I think RR had a unique tap-style at the start of the solo. And I was always super sloppy with that scale run at the end of the solo.

So that crazy train one is actually more difficult because if you listen to the song carefully Rhoads doesn't actually hit 4 full chugging 16th notes between the descending triads. Using dashes - as 16th rests and slashes / as 16th notes the song's pattern goes like this: /-// (chord) ///- (chord) //// (Chord) ///- (chord) Have a listen on a slow speed if you think I'm joking.

Licks that are Riffs because you think they are Licks but they are Riffs

Smoke On the Water

[@ShadowString2113o..]

I would LOVE to learn that tapping lick....Such a beautiful sound!!.... now I know why these licks are famous...

[@joshr696]

Big love!

[@kevinharrington4009]

i think a kind of "riff evolution" might be interesting. ex muddy waters played this kind of thing. jimmy page turned it into this kind of thing and steve vai turned it into this. or heavy metal used to be like this (insert iron maiden lick) and has evolved to this (insert dream theater riff)

[@giorgiotempesta8569]

The real name of "Mediterranean Sundance" was Rio Ancho by Paco De Lucia (the best classic guitarist of all time by far) and it was way harder the the version you're playing (which is hard as hell). Your version is a re-arrange made by Al and Paco later.

@@burakaktay5439 Sounding like Paco is right out impossible

[@pablodemora1390]

@@krs-two4329 It's not Entre Dos Aguas it's Rio Ancho. The intro wasn't fixed for any of his songs, he would just play it with those two songs indifferently.

[@silverbane5008]

Paco de Lucia played flamenco not classical music; he is awesome nevertheless

[@stevenpullan8120]

Doesn't he also play it on a steel strung classical and play with a metal pick or something. Or did i imagine reading that ha ha?

Just noticed the Big Dudes shirt! Here in the midwest, that shop was a staple during my dad's heyday in the 80s (when he ran a local studio).

You probably won't see this, but if you do, then I would like you to know I have watched a couple videos so far and have really liked the way you went about all of the things you do in each of them. This video got my sub though and bell.

[@ThatBeTheQuestion]

The opening riff of Through the Fire and Flames is actually written to be played overhand. The reason you think underhand is easier is because you played it wrong, in a fashion that is arguably easier to play underhand. However, the correct way to play it (according to, yes, the official tabs) is between the 13th fret on the G string to the 16 fret, then the 13th to the 20th, then 13th to 18th. I've experimented with this, and that 13 to 20 stretch is incredibly difficult and painful to do from underneath. Overhand is the best way to do it. And yes, it is quite playable. With some practice.

You must be fun at parties

[@Jewoc]

@@tfwthewhen The official tab on ultimate guitar is on the B string. Unfortunately, it only means they are done by someone qualified, and it does not come from the band. It seems good though. tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/dragonforce/through_the_fire_and_flames_official_2455218

Is this a joke about his finger strength being good for fingering things other than fretboards?

all very hard for sure, only one i hadnt learned before was the dragonforce tune, love em all, good choices, glad you included that one part in midnight, love that song

Wow, Al Di Meola !!! I didn't see that coming - cool

[@gamesandguitars3901]

Or the next one could be playing metal licks on an acoustic not a electric acoustic just a regular one

[@tylerbenjamin3842]

You should make your profile pic a picture of a metal desktop fan.

4:36 “Oh it’s just a minor arpeggio sweep in the key of C”

[@plasmakitten4261]

the "key of C" part shouldn't invoke fear upon you, the word "sweep" should tho :D

[@TSpoon823]

Found this video in 2020. In HS as a young guitarist I had Satriani's "Anthology" tab book and Midnight was in it. Honestly it was a blast trying to learn something so different. Glad it was on this list.

[@GreenJeep26]

Suggestion: Small Licks, Big Impact Licks that are not the main part of the song or even main riff but without them, the song just would not be as cool. Examples: (1) The descending lick in the main Back in Black riff, (2) The nylon acoustic run in Megadeth's Holy Wars (with the riff following it crushes just that much more), (3) Joan Jett/The Arrows - I love Rock-n-Roll with the little weedly descending run (like Back in Black). These are licks that didn't literally need to structurally be there to hold up the song but because they are, the song is that much cooler.

[@andrewpappas9311]

I agree with Holy Wars, that acoustic bit is just so cool

[@ChaziChaz89]

I'm here for the PRS guitars and... I got a whole lotta PRS in this video. Very satisfied 👌🏽

[@randyerb6839]

Just break down that "Crazy Train" verse part...That is the closest I've ever heard anyone "nail it" and you did it in another vid...and it didn't sound like this...It's those weird harmonics that kick out...I always sound too clean, even with my Warlock and EMG PUs on that...Not too mention the man could triple and quadruple track his solos note-4-note. Why I fell in love with guitar. Miss you Randy. Why I also rock the Polka Dots.

When ever he holds an acoustic guitar he has to play stairway once
