Moonage Daydream, Part 1 | Bowie/Ronson | Guitar Lesson

[@dmanntube]

Fan-f**kin-tastic! Worthy of the great man himself. Thank you

[@jodywilson13]

I'm from Hull. I'm so proud of Ronno and the other Spiders. It's only in the last couple he's getting he's getting the recognition in Hull as one of GOAT's .

[@thedok6419]

He got recognition from me in Newcastle in 1972, my first guitar hero.

[@nstrug]

Jody1987 well, at least they got the best club in Hull named after them 😁🕷🕷🕷

[@samuelxavier2473]

@@thedok6419 Me too. Thanks to Ronno, I got into guitar in a serious way.

[@kylodamian9981]

I dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to log back into an instagram account?? I was dumb forgot my login password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me!

[@kylodamian9981]

@Rowan Lyle I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@harrietleaashley6866]

still say your the best tutor on KZbin adrian another great lesson

[@acpg]

You're too kind, thanks George!

[@beaparadis5417]

Wahou! Wonderful!

[@nicennice]

Agree with the comments made here. Fantastic channel Adrian. Always interesting, sometimes challenging and just so much fun to play along with all your stuff. Thanks so much.

[@andrewjordan9025]

Freak out in a moonage daydream oohhh yeahh!!

[@koho]

BTW, looked up the video of the Bowie/Ronson performance of this song in Santa Monica. ACPG fans - look for it on YT - one of the all-time great moments in rock.

[@acpg]

Yes, amazing performance! I can listen to the audio, but is there video footage too? Can't seem to find it.

[@cskueny]

There's video from the Hammersmith Odeon that year from the Ziggy Stardust movie--is that the one you mean? There's a CD of the Santa Monica show from the same year but I too have never seen video from Santa Monica.

[@michaelclark4785]

I meant Adrian

[@josephinejones9392]

Uh-huh

[@haydnfitzpatrick5996]

Where did you get the backing track to play along to ? I've got the same glasses as you x They're the same ones John Lennon was wearing when we lost him.

[@acpg]

I made the backing. It's going to be up on my Patreon. You have great taste in glasses obviously!

[@ToniFustel]

Drivin South by The Stone Roses, Please.

[@acpg]

Yes, nice suggestion. Maybe!

[@pedrobarros4837]

Great choice, Adrian. When I want to learn how to play something new, the first channel that comes to my mind is yours. You're an outstanding teacher and guitar player. Keep on doing those videos

[@acpg]

Thanks for the kind words Pedro!

[@rocinante246]

Thanks. Adrian. This is great. The live album Santa Monica 72 is also a great place to hear this with Mick ronson

[@flaneurculture]

Nice one Adrian. To continue your Les Paul series you should look at Jeepster by T. Rex.

[@acpg]

Yes, good call. Had a few requests for this. Might try and do it!

[@Dreyno]

Love Bowie. Love Mick Ronson. Love Les Pauls. Great choice.

[@mikebarnard2689]

Mick had The Tone… when he played a solo it captured you in the first few seconds

[@cskueny]

Yeah, Bowie/Ronson!! This will be fun to try. I actually had just been feeling a Bowie phase coming on in my listening. And I'll ponder "some Les Paul style songs" to request. (Your LP is still so shiny! Keep that fretboard clean!)

[@acpg]

Yes, I'll be sure to keep it clean! Still at the stage where I'm babying this guitar a bit. Though thankfully a rosewood fingerboard doesn't show up dirt like the maple of my Tele.

[@plev10]

Thanks so much for breaking down this criminally underrated genius! Might take me a year to get even close to this, but I'll enjoy it!

[@marklewis7484]

London Calling... Mick Jones is a famous LP player and the band may perhaps align with ACPG?

[@matthewpollard2843]

Dear sir, I think The Drowners by Suede is a Les Paul song, so as I have always wanted to learn it. would you possibly please consider this as a future tuition video?

[@koho]

OK, that does it - just signed on to Patreon. I've benefited from so many of your great lessons, and this one tickles my guitar funny bone like few others. Time to give back, and help keep it going!! Thanks, Adrian.

[@acpg]

Thanks for signing up - great to have you on board with Patron! Without the support of people on there, there's no way I'd be able to keep making the regular weekly videos.

[@claesvanoldenphatt9972]

Adrian is a really talented teacher who explains salient musical features for actual players. I’m impressed how much insight and how little boring crap he imparts!

[@christopherquinn5899]

Spot on! There are so many KZbinrs who just like to talk. Adrian is a very accomplished guitarist and teacher, also an excellent KZbinr.

[@davidgerrard8661]

Nice video as always. I believe part of Ronsons tone was him playing with a wah pedal just left in a position that sounded cool. I think the term is 'cocked wah'? Look forward to the next part

[@acpg]

Yes, indeed all about the cocked wah. There's a great video somewhere on KZbin of the guy who now owns the famous Ronson Les Paul, his Marshall amp, and a few of his old pedals. Killer tone when he plugs in!

[@Smiffy830]

Hi Adrian, interpretation is a form of respect. Im sure Mick would agree that you've earned that respect. Bravo Adrian, Bravo.

[@terrorbirds9835]

I don’t think you’ve don’t any T.Rex, or maybe I’ve missed it, but for Les Paul type songs Bolan is a treasure trove

[@RhythmGuitarMan]

The walk down at 6.50 has always reminded me of ‘World of Pain’ by cream… am I going mad?

[@jeanvaljean2136]

I'm an alligator I'm a mama-papa comin' for you I'm the space invader I'll be a rock 'n' rollin' bitch for you Keep your mouth shut You're squawking like a pink monkey bird And I'm bustin' up my brains for the words Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe Put your ray gun to my head Press your space face close to mine, love Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh yeah! Don't fake it baby, lay the real thing on me The church of man, love Is such a holy place to be Make me baby, make me know you really care Make me jump into the air Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe Put your ray gun to my head Press your space face close to mine, love Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh yeah! Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe Put your ray gun to my head Press your space face close to mine, love Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh yeah! Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe Put your ray gun to my head Press your space face close to mine, love Freak out in a moonage daydream, oh yeah! Freak out, far out, in out

[@richa5934]

Someone who can be playing something fantastic I'm from Plymouth what are the few people in my neighbourhood you're a very good teacher good wishes

[@FineTuneCBShop]

Thanks for the ride.

[@ww3lstep]

Mick Ronson also held court with the pretty amazin' Ian Hunter too, so perhaps something from that era? "Once bitten twice shy", "Who do you love", etc...

[@LaughingboyMox]

fab lesson. are there any tabs, especially for the solo bits and that amazing what sounds like single note repeat....

[@andrewjohnson2747]

Fantastic stuff again Adrian. I’d love to hear a lesion for 2 4 6 8 Motorway by The Tom Robinson Band its a great Les Paul.guitar number.

[@stevecolman742]

how about mick ronsons slaughter on 10th avenue please adrian

[@modernchair7692]

Everyone thinks they have great taste in music - but you actually do ;-) Nice one Adrian ... again. Go the Les Paul !!

[@AbirTarafdar]

Wow. I’m glad came across this.

[@timnial2628]

Hi Adrian ,really enjoyed this lesson, how about eight line poem to continue the Bowie theme?

[@LouieLandsCandyTreat]

Exceptional lesson of a great Bowie/Ronson masterpiece!

[@samuelxavier2473]

I learned this song over 40 years ago but it's still enjoyable to watch. Nice take on the playing, mate. Great to see Ronno getting some respect.

[@theallseeingeyetheobserver7887]

You are one awesome guitarist bro 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@daviddockery8962]

Always thought the second chord in the chorus was a D and not a B minor

[@Janitorscage]

Wow I never realized how similar some of the chord progression is to Hotel California

[@PAUL-ge1kl]

Got my rocks off on this one Adrian. Ta😊

[@richardcurrie3799]

Great lesson. I love your teaching style.

[@aladdinsane3523]

My all time favorite lead. Ronson was awesome! Thanks.

[@skutty5773]

Thanks Adrian did you say Alan mOulder?

[@fossseseptique]

im in love with this man! and Im as straight as Warren Beatie

[@mattbockbrader2140]

I'd give my first born to have those lovely long fingers of yours.

[@Paul90173]

A great teacher and a humble fellow at that

[@annac2895]

no fucking way i'll be able to play that but oh well here i am

[@davewave36]

New tune to learn yay, thank you Adrian. Far as Gibson songs go would Cracked Actor work? Love that filthy sound. lol.

[@acpg]

Yes, good suggestion - amazing sound on that song.

[@petestern3639]

Great choice Adrian! Love your lessons!

[@acpg]

Cheers Pete!

[@wsurfn]

You are awesome. Thank you so much for doing this for others. Wow. So happy to give you a little back on Patreon.

[@acpg]

Thanks! It's a pleasure making these videos, and good to get positive feedback on them. Your support on Patreon is massively appreciated!

[@ednaplate]

Outstanding! Er… that’s all.

[@paulhemming3994]

Some paul kossoff les paul songs would be good

[@anthonymitchellalice]

Superb choice. Beautiful guitar.

[@pewsterbaby]

Yeah, that rhythm guitar scratchy passage around the 17, 18 minute mark is why I came looking. Thank you!

[@spongeboob6954]

This is amazing ive been looking for a lesson for the ronson part

[@MercurialToys]

Every time you post a new video and I see the title of it, I nearly get a giddy feeling, but then I keep my cool and just watch the video. Great job as always. You always make me want to play.

[@acpg]

Haha thanks! Nice thought to have people across the world swooning at my videos!

[@bradpittiful7288]

les paul song suggestions manic street preachers - stay beautiful sex pistiols - any of their songs social distortion - sick boy

[@acpg]

Yes! Great suggestions, thanks.

[@drivers1959]

awesome guitar lesson

[@daviddorton851]

so easy even a Dave Man 👨 can do it!😄

[@sluggo68]

Do “Queen Bitch”.

[@jasonstevens28]

Nice sound

[@santallum]

So where were the spiders ?

[@blueshorecreative3146]

Ronson rules. He was all loose over the fretboard like you were in this clip. Thanks man. I think you have a cool life. Your music choices are eclectic and interesting. Ever play any Radio Birdman or Midnight Oil?

[@16addam]

Excellent video and re LP type of songs? Danny K from TRB, PLEASE!!!!!!!

[@TheGorehound101]

Cool choice Adrian,,,,, thanks ,,,,,!!!!

[@amirulhambali3147]

I am your fan!

[@johnjohnson3709]

Great video!! I have a Les Paul and love to play this song. Thanks for showing me how Mick played it pretty close as you can get. ❤️

[@chokkan7]

Another fantastic lesson, Adrian. If I might offer a suggestion (in response to your request), stick with Ronson, but pick any song from Lou Reed's Transformer album...mine that lode for all it's worth...

[@scotian2810]

Great tone

[@djibozanzot3527]

Tactful cactus by the window, surveys the prairie of your room

[@gilvansouza]

What a lovely lesson thank you! No need to apologise, Ronson had his own style and equally you have your own which is awesome in its own right, make no mistake. Thanks for the effort you have put on your lessons I always enjoy them.

[@blackrainbowfiresword177]

"The ballad of Ziggy ✨ Stardust" would be great. Love the channel Adrian, Cheers!

[@markwilliams4362]

❤

[@tikitikibamboo]

It's been a while since you told us to suggest Les Paul related guitar songs... And I'm not sure if this song fits the bill, but how about "Made of Stone" by the Stone Roses? Cheers! Great content as always :)

[@mairenared]

Great video Adrian. I was lucky enough to see Bowie with the Spiders from Mars live in 1972 and still have my vinyl copy of the album. Always loved this tune and now I can learn how to play It. Many thanks for this master class 😃

[@terrymolloy2246]

Your tutorials are excellent. I first saw Mick on the Ziggy Tour. I once had a chat and drink with him. Genius guitar player, producer, arranger. And a Very humble man..

[@jjstudiosjj2408]

This particular song may get a little bit of a boost due to the black crowes covering it live and releasing an LP of song from 1972. Love Bowies stuff, I’m glad you did a video on this one

[@scottconnors8419]

Les Paul's w the mini Humbucker yield a great tone for the Ronson type sound,i love my minis..as always thnx for your detailed teachings. hope your summer is a great one.. thanks for your time...

[@maximvolodkin6809]

👌🔧❤

[@robertiaccarino4363]

Ronno!

[@walrusrecords9656]

I loved your "Pale Blue Eyes" tutorial and now this WOW one of my all time favorite songs to exist. Thank you good sir! Do "Stay" by Bowie next? XD

[@sebster3gmail]

Amazing, it's just amazing to watch you play. The most amazing thing is you play songs of all my favorite bands. Would you consider teaching us plan9 channel 7 from the Damned?

[@charlesbowron7606]

I agree with you Jody.. this guy is doing an excellent tribute to Ronno - David knew and owed a lot to Michael Ronson- sadly missed.

[@gunnerdee84]

Great presentation. Thank you. I'm just getting in to Bowie after years of ignoring him. What a great songwriter. I'm going through his catalog in order and really enjoying the early stuff. I will have fun playing this song and digging further into Mick's playing. This has really reignited my guitar playing.

[@Stephan74]

You have captured Bowie and ronson. And way before your time.. Absolutely brilliant mate love from Scotland 🇬🇧

[@UnitedFeodor]

Yay, Bowie!

[@koho]

Les Paul deep cut: Caleb Quaye's solo on Sails from Elton's John's Empty Sky album.

[@skutty5773]

Thanks man ...You teach the coolest song playlist ever . Bowie Smiths etc ...stay loose man .

[@KyOte13]

My Favorite Ziggy Song... it's so good to see someone teaching Mick's stuff

[@jonfazzone5125]

Mick Ronson. Always a Great Call 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@royalmonocle1322]

Brilliant performance, lesson, song choice and a lovely guitar! Your backing tracks are always spot on, but you really outdid yourself on this one

[@pepeaguilar2205]

Great tutorial, sir! Keep up the excellent work!!!!

[@lonsdalecasa]

Hi thank you very much sounds great cheers how about kossoff and Gary Rossington tones thanks again

[@stringman509]

Really enjoyed this lesson great teacher just taking your time thanks Colin

[@deadlegs187]

I remember hearing a early white stripes version of this. It sounded terrible yet still amazing

[@ricksimpson]

Great choice, Ziggy Stardust would have been my "go to" track, so it's very enlightening you pointed the finer points of this one out, thank you.

[@ricksimpson]

oh, how about looking at something by guitarist Eddie Shaver ?

[@threadbear]

This is a brilliant lesson for a supersonic song. I like all your lessons, but this one really rocks the house. Thanks.

[@ТарасЗагайкевич]

Excellent! More early Bowie with Mick Ronson please!
