Ribot + Hendrix = Out Blues

[@AQAMARINA]

I knew this was going to be one of my favorite videos right from the first 20 seconds

[@AlexGoesBoom280]

These types of videos are perfect! Exactly the way I think about my riffs/compositions. Very interesting to hear the thought process spelled out in words.

[@stephenowen5229]

Pure gold! Haugen Friday! Always worth looking forward to! Thanks for all your hard work as always.

[@DeGroove]

This right here…is what makes us love you forever. Thank you Eric, have a great day, I know I will, internalising this lesson.

[@timwinecoff2181]

Thanks for the continuing ear tickling treats. Nice rising falling counter points to lean into.

[@mattylyons6471]

Awesome! Happy Friday!!! Gotta check that book out!

[@cjscala87]

Really like the note choices here. Ribot’s playing is so melodic yet unexpected..

[@edpowers4771]

I love Ribot! Just bought tix to see him again this month!

[@grizcuz]

I absolutely love both the look and sound of that Strat. So I looked through your specs for the details about it. Honestly expecting it to be a US based boutique maker, meaning it's probably going to be way out of my price range once you add taxes and other charges after it reaches me in the UK. Totally gobsmacked to find that it's created by someone around 6 miles away as the crow flies from where I'm currently sitting and the price isn't OTT either.

[@dirtbagsongbook5746]

Great to see Ribot get some love and my man, you are killing it, I can see the steam rising from the manhole covers. Copping all these licks, thanks

[@kin4351]

Love it! Exactly why I’m here.

[@DallonAnderson]

I love all your ribot lesons but this one is extra sick!

[@JustinPittman]

This is such a great jam! Love it.

[@fredhystair5789]

wow, thx Eric. that's hot stuff. i'm gonna cook it all next week !

[@pm8278]

Great lesson thanks

[@kevininman2013]

Thanks Eric Awesome lesson!

[@rowbags3017]

Really tasty! I love the blend of styles - and those slow bends are gorgeous!

[@johnbeasley1168]

Been waiting for more Ribot! Stoked :)

[@CoenBijpost]

oh man. This is insane. Every note goes from in to out and tears at your heartstrings…

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

Thanks Coen! I always try to play nice!

[@MisiekgamerYT]

Your videos are really great when it comes to stylistics, rarely have I seen a youtuber who knows how to explain it and proposes some interesting examples of stylistic mix. P.S. This is the spiciest solo I've heard in a while! Cheers Mister Haugen!

[@agent_of_cthulhu]

Awesome man. Reminds me a little of Zappa.

[@macsarcule]

Thank you, Eric! ✌️😃🎸

[@simdoyle]

Hearing Floyd here. Brilliant as ever.

[@Ste_Gildea_Young]

Completely!!

[@RM-eo4iz]

I think it takes real balls and a lot of skill to pull this off quite so brilliantly. I think if I try I might just sound out of tune and/or high😀 There were bits in there that reminded me of that video you did ... something like... “what if Bobby Mcferrin wasn’t feeling quite so chipper”. Excellent stuff as usual. Greetings from Wales, UK.

[@davidhollander829]

Holy cow. Your note selection here is INCREDIBLE and makes my molars buzz. (Ribot does that, too.) Plus: TONE. Geez. Just wait until I move to Chapel Hill (where my wife is from -- her band Speed McQueen was part of the scene down there in the 90s) and start harassing you in person.

[@erikljonsson]

Just great stuff

[@davedee6339]

Sick dude. Ribot + Hendrix, who’da thunk it. Keep that winter mane growing brother.

[@richardlynch5632]

Had me the 1st bar😃👍👍😎 😎👍❤🖖

[@petergoddard1960]

So cool my fingers stuck to it. This i love.

[@frankhumphries1927]

Oh hell yes!

[@karllongbottomguitars9192]

Love it ❤️

[@TheDouble68]

Another great lesson - love it! And for a somewhat technically challenged player like me it sounds good played slow too. Just one (weird?) question: When you play the g+ on 2nd string at 0:25 the note is really sharp (octave higher perhaps). How do you achieve that?

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

An accidental pinch harmonic a la Billy Gibbons!

[@abrigospardos]

Wow! If by putting Ribot and Hendrix together in the blender what you get is these wonderfully fresh, idiosyncratic bluesy pieces, please keep them coming! BTW, and since man (and woman) does not live by Hendrix and Ribot alone, I was wondering if you had already considered applying your method to a cool little tune by Kenny Vaughan called "Mysterium". I may be wrong, but it seems to me that it would totally suit your style and would benefit from your quirky treatment. Cheers!

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

Oooh I hadn't heard of him but just checked him out - friggin' tasty weirdo!

[@shapdanone]

Damn that was good

[@franksmildyears7323]

Here I come eric

[@kweinfurt]

Damn this was good.

[@michfirestorm]

Hey youtube algo this is great

[@EssV_]

*Will there ever be a full cover of "Movin' Out" (Billy Joel) in Ribots style. An instrumental track would be sick🙏🏽*

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

There's this one I did a few years ago (it's actually one of my faves): kzbin.info/www/bejne/inOwdoaGhah4hq8

[@cheshirecat5824]

Nice! Any chance that we can get a lesson on Ribot's version of Caravan?

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

Noted! I make no promises but I'll add it to my list!

[@garrettmckellar]

I don't know if it's because your progression was "La Villa Strangiato guitar solo," but I think maybe Ribot + Hendrix = Lifeson?

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

I can hear that! It's the flat 5 that does it!

[@sagig72]

good lesson! What guitar is that?

Clean and tasty, as you usually do

More mark ribot

[@Ste_Gildea_Young]

Strat skronky is covert Dave Gilmour

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

Not that I'm anything close to Gilmour, but I do seem to accidentally bend like him!

[@Ste_Gildea_Young]

@@EricHaugenGuitar That's what the great Bob Ross used to call a "happy accident"

[@mweb47729]

Since you're playing over E Mixolydian, could we think of this as being in G# Locrian, which shares the same notes? In which case, the "blue note" of the G# blues scale would be the 5 rather than the flat 5?

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

I see what you mean, and the notes certainly do line up that way. But I just hate locrian!

[@elipacheco532]

Reminded me of John Scofield.

[@EricHaugenGuitar]

I could only dream of being 1/100th of the player he is!

[@gimmenames9039]

Great video but kinda hard to follow and figure out. Would be thankful for tabs Eric!
