Woodshed Episode 19 with special guest Tom Quayle

[@LeonTodd]

"Play the things you enjoy playing" is absolute sage wisdom. Such a great chat dudes!

[@deans.4705]

Two top notch individuals and players. Thank you to both for taking time and using youtube as a forum for your thoughts, wisdom and making the world a better place.

[@dmitrymashkov9379]

Guys, what a fantastic topic you've taken and managed to disclose! This definition of fusion deserves to be written on wikipedia.

[@chrisbrown644]

Allen Hinds has been my latest obsession. Phenomenal player.

[@manimusicka2]

I searched Allan Hinds and literally fell in love with his playing in like 10 seconds.

[@dmitrymashkov9379]

[@CamiloVelandia]

Two brutally badass players!!!!

[@thorndog100]

Two absolute beasties of the guitar world. Im lucky enough to have seen and meet Tom and he is so down to Earth its amazing. Seeing him play his lovely legato live is just beyond amazing. He played with Martin Miller and he is an amazing beasty with the guitar. That was a great day and at the end of it all I won a Laney Ironheart Amplifier in the Andertons lucky dip competition. Just have to try and meet Andy...Not yet though...thanks covid...Peace people and keep on playing..

[@protooler]

Hey Andy. I'm originally from Memphis Tennessee...I had this friend who is no longer with us. At the time, my knowledge of the guitar wasn't good enough to understand what he was doing. First time i met him was at Strings & Things in Memphis,,around 1982. His name? Shawn Lane,,, would you please do an episode on Shawn, you guys are talking about fusion. To me...Shawn was the epitome of Fusion

[@ahall3823]

Two of the greats! Thanks guys.

[@donald-parker]

Sublime. I imagine most of us start by being captivated by a specific sound or style. For or me, it was Johnny Winter. The "And Live" album and the weird 3 sided LP "Second Winter" were it for me. My rock playing, my blues playing, my slide playing. That started around age 14. It was many years before I started expanding my vocabulary. But I did. And now, some 40+ years later, I think I have my own style. But truth be told, behind every note I play I know there is a Johnny Winter, or Steve Vai, or Eric Johnson, or EVH, or SRV, or .... someone who inspired me. And lately, its been Andy Wood. I never played so many runs using b3rds, 3rds, b5s, and 5s in my life as I have in the past few months after latching on the Woodshed. I know its been around forever, but the music never grabbed me. But those Suhr sessions with Ben that I stumbled across one day have made a fan for life. Thanks!

[@andywoodmusic]

Dude 🙏🏻 so kind. Thank you.

[@tedc6694]

I have never got into fusion in large part because i misunderstood what it isn't. It isn't one thing. So this was great for me

[@chrishandley]

Last year whilst shopping for a PRS SE with a roasted maple neck looking through demo videos on the tube, I came across a Dawson's video and the salesman on that video did this super accurate legato thing... It kinda blew my mind, how could a salesman play like that!? That salesman was Tom! Your musical knowledge memory and picking ability also blows my mind! Cool videos cheers 👍

[@andyracksthecams]

The audio did not take anything away from this. Great views, truths, angles and perspectives on being yourself. A few names in there I need to check out. Thank you.

[@robkguitar]

So awesome - thanks guys! Super cool to have these positive videos! 🤘

[@droidfan]

I absolutely love Tom. Ive said it before, he is the reason I both quit guitar and found it again years later - 100% true!

[@juventus8269]

Wow, two of my favorite guitar players on one Live stream! Awesome! You both inspire me to pick up my guitar every day.

[@TheShakour]

one of the best episodes ... two great guy.

[@Sadowsky46]

Ha! My two heroes together 👍🎸🎸

[@chrisosborneband4941]

great great video...thanks guys!!

[@BrandonBriers]

Such an insightful talk, I fully agree with not becoming too self aware of finding your own voice you trust have to trust in what music you love and learn from as many great players as possible :)

[@supernatural9r406]

Both are Masters of the Guitar.

[@manlymusic9538]

two of my favorite guitarists!! just bought Andy Wood's sig whiskey barrel model. sounds amazing can't get back to work when wfh

[@lucasperez9229]

I just got my AW Whiskey Barrel yesterday. Your right it sounds amazing, it’s like the Swiss Army guitar.

[@herbertroxas]

Oooh! Two of my favorite players!

[@sacredgodslayer]

I suggested it yesterday...a record Wood/Quayle, something like the concept of Cacophony, but blending your two styles With today's technology it shouldn't be too hard And maybe with some guest here and there...like Asato, Brewster or all the other great musicians/guitarists of your era

[@ctusser]

Great stuff!

[@axeaddiction796]

Love both of you guys. Caught you at the Raleigh Music Academy about 10 years ago with Guthrie Govan.

[@andyracksthecams]

This is great. Thank you.

[@PaulWarrenMusic]

My cat was afraid of Tom, but I wasn't. So I enjoyed his visit here. Cool video as always!

[@mamadymbow3827]

Can you please show how to use Axe fx lll with your head amp and cabinet ?

Greg Howe! Alex Hutchings! ❤

[@rockyfolksy8639]

great video Andy! very informative. big fan of you both!🙏 is it possible that Martin Miller and Jake Willson will follow on the next interviews?😊

[@andywoodmusic]

Would love to have them on the shed.

[@rockyfolksy8639]

this is exciting! thanks! 🍻

[@icarusi]

I think it was initially an attempt to get more respect for rock/blues as a 'legitimate' form of music, such as classical and/or jazz. When players started fusing some jazz and classical elements, it was clear that those rock/blues players could also 'handle' elements of classical and jazz, to standards of playing close to specialist jazz or classical players. Some jazz and classical players and composers also started including rock/blues elements. Gershwin and Delius were early classical/jazz fusion composers.

[@willgoodfellow3144]

I'd say Mark Lettieri is a good example. Also Isiah Sharkey- from funk to standards to pop with John Mayer, he's just got it.

[@andywoodmusic]

Will Goodfellow well you’re gonna enjoy next weeks episode ;)

[@willgoodfellow3144]

@@andywoodmusic You have my attention sir!

[@nitefly-music]

In my mind fusion had its peak with Allan Holdsworth. RIP

[@chrissguitarshow206]

Hello andy

[@zaccyo]

Tom said he doesn't get Shawn Lane. What the hell does that mean??

[@khalilhabib9607]

Allen hinds is a guitar God

[@somethingbl]

Hey Andy, just FYI you put ".com.uk" instead of ".co.uk" for Tom's website, which wouldn't exist.

[@andywoodmusic]

Cheers dude thanks!!!

[@jamesrobinson529]

Imo, one of the most underrated fusion musicians of our time is a guitarist named Guillaume Muschalle. He's an incredible player. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnq8o5-sZ8yte5o

[@ericksaulchangperez9388]

What Is the last name of this guitarist named Chris that andy mentioned?

[@axeaddiction796]

I think he was referring to Mandolin player Chris Thile
