The Captain Meets

[@AndyH2O]

This episode should be called "What Makes Rick Beato Great". Excellent interview, what a knowledgable and interesting guy.

[@TheDilligan]

This is great. I know their format is "The Captain meets whoever" but it would be cool if they changed this one.

[@Joe-mz6dc]

RIck should do a video on "What Makes a Music Store Great". Seriously, I've been in hundreds of music instrument stores and some of them have been absolutely fantastic and others complete dogs. I would love to see a great video on the breakdown of what the big differences are.

[@prettylady8133]

Rick doesn't get nervous because he see's them ALL as people; not famous people. That's why these "Famous" people respect him and his fans as well.

Nice! It's funny to watch when two people who professionally interview people all the time sit together and interview one another, how the sense of timing is perfect. Like Captain asks something and sits quiet listening to as long as the talk comes, and Rick just stops right away when he comes to the end of his point and he's so coherent with his story telling, and Captain immediately catches the ball and throws it back. It's so smooth sailing.

[@segueoyuri]

It's called a conversation. It used to be pretty popular a long time ago.

[@ragnarberglund820]

Contrast that to the interview with Paul Reed Smith!

[@sirfizz6518]

Interviewing will tend to hone one's conversation skills

[@WillyPDX94]

When Rick interviews geniuses like Pat Metheny I can see how blown away they are with the depth of understanding Rick has of their music. Most interviewers only ask journalistic questions like "who were your influences" or "how do you learn guitar"? But Rick will want to discuss an interesting chord substitution or unusual phrase on some deep cut from an album recorded by the artist 20 years ago. Watch Metheny's face light up, his body language relax, and his attention focus fully on the discussion. Same thing with Sting. These genius musicians recognize a kindred soul and someone who truly appreciates and understands their work. Hard to beat that. ✌❤

[@darringodden7225]

When my youngest son was starting out this shop allowed him to play top line guitars. 15 years on he has the most amazing collection of gear and that's what he spends his money on. Great video

rick made me understand modes despite my former teacher tried to force it on me and i never understood it. and all of that for free. such a mvp, such a great influence for me.

[@kernowchris]

Beato at last. I've been looking forward to this for ages. Rick is a Legend. Top work Mr Anderton.

[@RedSinter]

I just love Rick he brings the soul ❤️ to all the music I grew up with, with only a few exceptions and that's ok... He's a few years younger than me. But what he covers from my youth through my married years is priceless. I think I can safely say as long as we have Rick Music everything is in good hands. Thanks to Andertons for this interview. Rick brings the Synergy and the more.

[@WharfRat4]

I don't think people give Lee enough credit for just how good he is as an interviewer. I doesn't matter who he interviews (KZbinrs, grunge metal players, people using modelling gear, his Dad ...), you always get a really good look at who they are and what motivates them. I don't say this as a casual observer. I also interview people, run seminars, train people etc as part of my job and considering Lee is probably(?) untrained in that area, he's a natural.

[@hoisin75]

it's october 2024, the world has gone mad and I can't watch the news anymore. This video was the perfect antidote. Fun, light and informative. Beato is a legend and it was great to have him our side of the pond.

[@pierreschnehage8152]

49:00 Rick really knows mics & placement. That means you need to know where all instruments emit sound from... Respect, Rick.

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

His son Dylan is what drew me to Rick in the first place. I was talking with my friends and one of my buddies said the strangest thing. He said that all American car horns were the note F sharp. He had heard someone else say that and I started thinking about other common sounds we have that are so well known that everyone knows it. So I searched "how to identify pitch by ear" and it took me to Rick's channel with his son and when I was finished watching, I was speechless. It was one of the most incredible talents I have ever seen. Like watching Bach or Beethoven or Mozart as a child. A prodigy by definition. So I subbed and craved more of them. And then the rest was history

[@jozjonlin3170]

I've been subscribed to Rick's channel since he had well below a million subscribers. I've been amazed at his growth but the growth is because he's real and provides value in his music education as well as entertainment. It's a perfect crossover appeal for musicians.

[@direnova6284]

Me too, I wonder how many people he has helped in their exploration of music, he certainly has contributed to my understanding of composition.

[@rushrulz65]

Beato is a treasure here in Atlanta and you Lee are a great interviewer. You give space for the person to breathe just like a good classic rock song needs to! Thanks for this. Both of you keep up the great content.

[@daves.2111]

Here is what I love about Rick and his videos… As someone who has always loved and been passionate about music, but has little/no technical skill or training, I can watch his videos and feel included in the conversation even though at times he is speaking a “language” I don’t even understand. It’s almost like learning a foreign language (i.e. music theory) by immersion.

[@ed.z.]

Excellent observation regarding learning music should be seen as learning a new language. Alphabet Letters are the notes, words and phrases are motifs, sentences are musical phrases, paragraphs are themes, compositions are songs or tunes.

Would have loved to have watched Rick do the $1000 challenge. When it comes to gear, he doesn't typically have a budget. So, watching him piece together something would be interesting. Where would he spend his money?

he'd probably spend more on the amp, and get a decent but cheap guitar. but who knows?

[@priorwitness]

This was brilliant! At around the 52:00 this was an excellent point about amp vs plugins. I had this conversation just the other day. I own a real Mesa, and I will never get rid of it as long as plugins cannot generate the same feel as an amp can. I get it - in a mix there isn't much of a difference anymore, but I get more inspiration and excitement from playing thru an amp than I do from a plugin.

[@florian-anwander]

Confirmed (though I am mostly on keyboards and only playing guitar some times). About the topic of getting acoustic feedback from a plugin via the studio monitors which he mentions there: that won't work because the plugin has some latency. So the feedback will be the same as if you'd try to get feedback when using a delay pedal which does not provide the original signal.
