(Lynyrd Skynyrd) Sweet Home Alabama - Gabriella Quevedo

[@onufrm]

Gabriella has incorporated all the recognizable elements from Lynyrd Skynyrd's recording, which were played by three guitarists, piano, bass. drums and a singer! She pulls all that together really well, and manages to give her version of the song a great feel too. It was such fun to listen to!

[@rogerokeeffe213]

Exactly!

[@dougfa3515]

For sure... that had to take a while to pull all those elements together, even for Gabby!

[@karasublack1826]

Couldn't agree more

[@alistairewen9558]

What tuning,please.

[@Markle2k]

@@alistairewen9558 It's always in the description in her more recent videos. Earlier, she often replied in the comments to technical questions like that. For this one, it's in DADGAD.

[@Rusty-z5i]

Most of the best guitar players in the world never say a word . She is 1 in a million.

[@hansemannluchter643]

Exactly!! They just STFU, and play their guitar. As does Mss Gabriella.

[@davidwartski7213]

She's playing the piano and guitar parts, along with the vocals. Mindbogglingly amazing.

[@hansemannluchter643]

She's even playing the solo, along with the bass-line!! Goddammit, this woman is an amazing guitarist!!!

[@jubydude]

Amazing example of what a virtuoso can do with a three chord song. . .all by herself. Bravo. Mozart, move over. . .Gabby's in the house.

Im not quite the musician to catch all that. But i noticed that since this comment

[@teleclasster]

I've played this song for 40 years, and must say this is the most refreshing version I've heard. Great voicings and technique!

[@PR-lw2oq]

@@jimmason8502 I totally agree with you. I am mesmerized by what this amazing Artist can do.. I do not play the guitar but she makes it sound like there is 2 , maybe 3 guitars playing at the same time..She always has my attention during her covers..

[@RandallMI]

@@PR-lw2oq I count 4: Melody (vocals), lead guitar, chord progression, and rhythm (beats 2 and 4). I'm a drummer, not a guitarist, and this extremely talented girl just blows me away. She and her instrument are one. Wow! BRAVO!

[@Opusss]

I see you are in fact a man of culture too.

[@Opusss]

@King_of_Dragons Luca Stricagnoli Is awesome, been following him for several years. Can recommend 100%

[@jordancohen3465]

@King_of_Dragons She's been at this art on KZbin for 10+ years... Tons of songs. The way you posted your comment made it sound like she's late to the party. She's been a fingerstyle KZbinr for longer than Luca (who is also awesome, btw, but he uses all sorts of custom guitars and Gabriella does it all on a normal 6-string). Fair disclosure: I'm a fingerstyle guitarist, and Gabriella is one of the people who inspired me to keep at it (it's wayyyyy harder than it looks, despite how Gabrilella makes it look, and way harder than "regular" guitar).

[@michaelskywalker3089]

To my ears this is the type of arrangement that amateur guitarists deserve and should aspire to play at the expert/intermediate level. Groups like the Eagles especially wrote great songs but they require multiple guitars plus a rhythmic section including a bass line to convey a professional sound similar to the original recordings. The typical tabluture for this song is easy for the intermediate player if they only follow the chord changes with an appropriate strumming pattern and an occasional riff. This arrangement requires more nuance and "musicality" from the guitar player especially if they are not accompanying a singer.

[@bobbyvee8941]

Your Dad has to be the "proudest" man in the world!!

[@tacocin]

Amen!!!

[@AutoBodyEverything]

Noooo body can beat your smile! Most prettiest smile any musician has on all of social media.

[@tonyleeglenn]

Excellent. She nailed the essence of every key part of the song. You've got Ed King's guitar, Leon's bass line, Ronnie's vocal melody, and even Billy Powell on the piano. Really impressive!

[@butterfly.933]

Well said!!!

[@patrickwa6575]

Agreed. As much as I’m impressed by Gabriella’s abilities and skills playing, I’m more impressed with her arrangements. Tony said it very eloquently how she incorporated all the key elements into one completely amazing arrangement.

[@jossip1171]

I totally agree !!!

[@robinvance5144]

Yes I do agree but what even better is that she did it on an accustic guitar I couldn't have said it better myself

[@jayhuff239]

Found this video 2 years ago and made it a goal to learn to play this arrangement fingerstyle on my electric. Took awhile to get it right but now it sounds amazing. Only thing I added was a small bit of reverb. Played it last evening on my patio and the neighbors were dancing on theirs. Thanks Gabriella for this work of art and allowing me to add to my repertoir. I hope you never go away.

Only two words : great - awesome

[@thierrymolinie14]

Technically not difficult... Hard to do !

[@jordancohen3465]

A year ago, I saw one of her videos, and it inspired me to try to learn fingerstyle. A year later, including 7 months of lessons, I can comfortably play quarter not melodies under a thumbed bassline ("Travis-style" guitar) and just when I think I'm getting kind of good at it, I watch another one of her vids and she's properly soloing, all the while keeping the bassline running and sounding as good as if someone else is playing it... damn! She makes this look so easy. Heh.
