Why learn 2 5 1 licks and chord voicings with Rich Severson

[@michaelsantiago6887]

I played for many years, and I dig how you can explain complex ideas in an understandable manner. Plus, your a heck of a player!

[@FriendM2010]

That is some smooth “jazz cat” playing 🎸 👍

[@DizzyKrissi]

The way you play on single strings that fluently impresses me a lot - I need to learn that - thanx Rich

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Thank you

[@stevedouglas7375]

Very nice. Great explanation Rich. Thanks for posting this. By the way, that is one beautiful guitar.

It an Heritage Eagle Classic you can't beat them > www.guitarcollege.net/heritage-guitars/EAGLE2005.html

[@stevedouglas7375]

Thank you Rich. I appreciate it.

@@RichSeversonGuitar Rich, Did you modify it? I have a Golden Eagle from around 1993 with a floating pickup. Not sure I get your tone but then I would need to know your amp settings. I'm using a Fender Deluxe Reverb clean with little or no reverb.

[@MyMusicPod]

Really appreciate your teachings..tips..advice..thank you Rich!

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

You're welcome thanks for watching and making a comment

[@pallisg]

love your approach to improvising

[@coolshot3934]

I really enjoy hearing you play and I appreciate the theory you offer during your lessons. You are a very fine player with great tone and you always play very beautiful guitars. By the way, I have a copy of your book "Blues and Rock Guitar Solos Vol. 1", copyright 1979, with the original floppy vinyl record still taped to the inside cover! Thanks for what you do, it is inspiring.

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Thank you kindly! That's amazing you still have it all intact!! Very cool!!

[@bok2bok333]

Great lesson ✌️🙂

[@MustafaMuharemagicBato]

Love the way of explanation ... great lesson ... :)

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Thank you

[@sclogse1]

What this makes me think of is the Tom Waits ballads on Small Change. Especially, I Can't Wait To Get Off Work.

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Take the day off!

[@analogalien]

Hi Rich. I can't find the lessons you are talking about on your website. Do you have an update link?

[@TommyHarkenriderguitar]

Thanks so much. Great video

[@tomm7434]

Is the c major the 2? And if not shouldn’t I be starting on the d major?

[@numbersabcdefg]

Is the 2 5 1 similar to the 12 bar blues?

[@NizJazzBTC]

Excellent lesson. Do you do in person lessons?

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Yes and Skype lessons

[@jeffreypelione4885]

which video lesson on your website corresponds with this video? ie; playing the ii-v harmony and also soloing over that harmony, are they 2 separate videos? Thanks Rich!

[@greatvanzini]

Wonderful stuff!

[@BobP68]

Love the guitar. What is it??

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Heritage eagle classic > www.guitarcollege.net/heritage-guitars/EAGLE2005.html

[@ImOnlyFakingIt]

Whats that amp to your right (left side of the video) in the background? An old tube amp?

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

An old tube Gibson, It's more of blues amp. Looks cool but I never use it.

[@ImOnlyFakingIt]

Cool! I'd love to hear you play through such an amp! Wouldn't that be the sound of the early Blue Note recordings, Kenny Burrell, Grant Green, Jim Hall as well?

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

It distorts too easily

[@TheStrataminor]

lol sounds like my guitars! Okay just joking and I love your lessons which are usually a bit above me, but you give me hope. God bless!

[@chrispickins9181]

Please do, it's only a paper moon!

[@NotUrBiz]

Okay, I don't speak Greek, but I sure enjoyed listening and watching!

[@numbersabcdefg]

Have you learned any Greek lately?

[@Abe_D-2024]

All of a sudden you are a jazz cat… Great lines….

[@doctorskull8197]

👍💕🎼🎶🎸

[@ricardoslhenriques]

Your neck hand seems to be almost moveless, when you are soloing... and your picking hand goes thru the movement of strumming, but your are picking single notes... Wtf, that is some voodoo shit, man...

[@Bflatest]

great stuff! you have a video on TRItone substitutions I just discovered those hehehe
