The Jesus Lizard's "Then Comes Dudley" - Riff Rundown 18.12.23 1222pm excellent.. goat being the best album, for sure... he's just a jazz riff king.
Hey it's Duane Denison explaining how to play one of the best songs in rock n roll history of one of the best records in rock n roll history.
By one of the best bands in rock n roll history.
@@ShiroppoStudio YES!!! One of the best live bands EVER and a rhythm section for the ages.
Wow dudes... I soooo agree whit all of you! Most dangerous live act of the 90''..and beyond. Saw them for the first time here in Montréal in 1990 or something.... Never looked back after that.. I was
Hooked
Agreed. He’s so nasty
Hahahaha
Seriously, PG, give this man a regular video series! He should keep doing it from his house, too, preferably fireside.
Facts 👍
Exactly
This man made some of the best rock riffs on guitar
You spelled some wrong, it's A L L, btw
dude i love that the jesus lizard is still getting recognition that is fully deserved
That slurred arpeggio is deviously hard for how simple it looks. I actually got to take some time to get it down. Incredible guitar playiing, Duane is a legend.
I love how he’s a veritable gentleman. And just writes the most abstract demonic atonal non metal riffs. I love metal by the way 👍
The Jesus Lizard's "Then Comes Dudley" - Riff Rundown 1224pm 18.12.23 The Denison/Kimball Trio riffing there...
Duane is the real deal. Incredible talent and he actually wrote me back, pen and paper, way back in the mid 1990s.
A gentleman ❤️
@@gtorphins and a scholar
More Denison videos please!!!
every musician I've met who was obsessed with music (and every weirdo) all loved Jesus Lizard. If you play this for people who aren't really into music, they hate it lol I think only because David Yow could never make american idol, but his vocals were amazing. They wrote some of the best riffs ever recorded and made incredible albums
Super stoked for this to happen in 2024! After me telling everybody that J. L. is the shizzle. For the last 30 years!! Much Love from Germoney
More Denison, give him a vlog
Agreed! He seems to enjoy it, too. Beyond being one of my favorite musicians I think he would be a great UA-cam educator. I'd watch him religiously
Florian FF ua-cam.com/video/BziE7Ym1AmI/v-deo.html
@@mikeking1313 Yeah! I know this. I think he's also giving paid online lessons. A UA-cam series could be a way to promote the lessons
Whats your avatar, Mike? I like it
Spuzzwick it’s a photo of a sculpture by the artist Tom Friedman
Probably the best guitar player i've ever seen live
Duane is such an underrated guitar player. I love his sound too. It’s a distorted clean sound that is hard to replicate. Love how he makes his palm muting sound like a clock sometimes
The Duane Denison chord arpeggio slide. Hall of fame! 🙌🌟
Its a really nice homage to Miles Davis' "Great Expectations" 74'. Denison makes it his own and it really is quite magical.
😯!!
F*ckin' hell, yes! Thank you, you made my day :)
Incredible knowledge and playing, now that's rare! Absolutely love some of the riffs he writes.
I grew up in the mid 00s scene listening to mostly hardcore and metalcore bands but I was also really into Mathrock bands and grind. I listened to a LOT of Daughters when I was younger who have a very clear influence from The Jesus Lizard. Listened to a lot of Arab on Radar and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. The influences didn't make sense to me when I was a kid but now that I'm older and I'm revisiting music from my young adulthood and finding their influences it's clear as day. If you would like to listen to a heavier, more chaotic version of TJL I implore anyone who reads this comment to listen to the band Daughters from Rhode Island
The Jesus Lizard definitely stamped their influence on younger bands , but when it comes to RI bands none stamped bigger on them than their very own Six Finger Satellite.
You Won't Get What You Want is probably my favorite album of the last decade.
@@_Captain_Benji_ hell songs is definitely the album with the most obvious influence from the Jesus Lizard but you won’t get what you want is also incredible
That was basically me but also occasional death metal and crust punk
Came into metalcore after the youth crew revival of the late 90s that laid the groundwork for contemporary metalcore... was a prog rocker/punk before that. I had always loved math rock, noise and post stuff but you put it really well "the influences didn't make sense to me when I was a kid". I'm 31 now and I have this experience with a lot of other music from my youth now with different bands.
Thank you so much Duane. Everytime I see you guys live the show is incredible! Last time was at the Fonda. Incredible guitar riffs and songs.
Sounds like an old King Crimson.
I wish every musician can explain what they do as articulately and to the point music theory wise as he just did.
Duane, this is an awesome lesson! I've been listening to Jesus Lizard since my college days 30 years ago and I've ALWAYS wondered how this riff was played! So good to see it's done right from the source! I was just listening to GOAT today @ work and it does not get old at all. An excellent lesson from one of the most versatile guitarists on the planet. Many thanks Mr Denison!
from the man himself! Duane is the most underrated, inventive and unique player!
What a professional you are, Duane! How many times u ve been playing that riff while your bandmate was puking, with his bellend out or touching it ir any sort of things 😂
That's a good part of what made The Jesus Lizard so great live. The rest of the band was so tight and solid and sounded even better than they did on the records while Yow was just a chaotic force of nature.
Lmao
One of my favorite guitarist and a hell of a band live!!!!!!
In my top 3 of guitar players. He's just so damn good and creative.
In all keys, at any tempo! ❤
He's a great guitarist/musician, not only rock but he uses jazz scales/chords in Hardcore. He's probably the biggest influence to a band called Dry Cleaning, which is a post-punk band from the south London. A Great artist.
Listening to the Jesus Lizard talk about music theory is really cramping my "1993 - 13 year old self"s style
@1:18 "And then there's this..." (proceeds to melt everybody's face off)
'Rub it on me Duaaaaneee'. f*cking Genius ♥️
And that's why he is unique. Top notch
Killer tone!
After years trying to figure this out, now i have the answer. Thanks Premier Guitar & Mr. Denison
Cool! One of my heroes, such a unique player.
Duane is one of the most interesting guitarists out there. Cool riff and concise explanation.
Duane is simply bad ass
PG winning so much respect from me with these Duane videos
Thank you Duane, for the explanation!
One of my favorite guitarists of all time
Thanks, Duane!
Great riffs
My old bandmate compared me to this guy and damn I'm flattered.
He's a hero and a great teacher. Put out another album Jebus Liz
hail!
Legend
I would’ve preferred monkey trick but this is still amazing.
you hear a ton of that technique on the denison kimball trio records...
Great Expectations by Miles Davis
"a jazzy melody"
Some dudes who were pissed they can stretch to play this gave it a thumbs down! hahahahahaha
Chicago produced so many fucking amazing bands back then.
I, also, bow to Duane, and I've long considered him the greatest guitar player in alternative rock, whatever that means, right? The Jesus Lizard were truly one of the greatest bands ever, and I feel like each member had such a unique style that the band, together, were goddamn fascinating. And they rocked, so hard! Anyway, I have to say that, eventually, this leason will come in handy, but I ask you guitar players out there, have you tried actually playing this riff yet? I'm a little miffed at Denisen, currently, for calling this "easy," Even if he did say "relatively" or some other qualifier, that's still bullshit. This thing is a bitch to play in tempo, but I do like a challenge! Such a cool riff, and I can't wait till I can actually play it! What a song, and what a band!
The unison melody is VERY reminiscent of “Great Expectations” by Miles D
“that works just great!”
I love how Bob Ross he is talking about playing a song by one of the most harsh, dangerous, punk bands in history. So good! 👌
One of the best! Check out Denison Kimball Trio! Amazing stuff.
Why do I feel a need to hear the song quite often and many times it is being triggered by some oddity that I have just witnessed or heard. Greatest bar band from Generation X. Sorry, Clutch but I love you guys too!
This song got me to purchase a used guitar and start my journey, love it
I Always Love your guitar -playing, You've made this your own ~ but Geez, I have to also mention the Miles Davis Great Expectations thang...
Thanks so much. I love that man
I love you Duane... you rock my imagination.
One of my favorite albums thank you so much Dwayne
This track must be played loud af
I wish he'd show the other chords that kick in around 1:18. very hard to figure out whats happening there.
Can anyone tell me is he in standard tuning or down a 1/2 step?
Hey Duane! Love you long time. You forgot to mention Miles Davis' Great Expectations on Big Fun. Ha!
Jack Shaw He doesn't need to mention it. It's the bass player David Sims who could mention it .
i think i just got carpal tunnel.... ow, my wrist...
Great video! You got a new subscriber 🖒
"Opposite of the Hendrix chord" :D
From the days of Scratch Acid, I always thought he should be scoring cinema music.
Duane was not in Scratch Acid
What a fucking genius Duane is
I love it. Two people give a thumbs down. What more could you want? Oh right - he didn’t tell you which pedal to buy...
Two people have no taste
@Toxic Potato OK Zoomer
Wow I've been playing guitar for over 20 years and this totally blew my mind! Wish I'd gotten into the Jesus Lizard sooner but it's only just been happening thanks our new drummer... awesome stuff!
No wonder this amazing little riff is the thing that people ask him about the most, even if Duane's career is chock-full of amazing sounds and creative techniques. When I first heard it I literally jumped out of my chair and said 'what the fuck was that??' It's somehow strangely comforting to know that so many people around the globe feel the same about a 4-second excerpt from a song
i saw this dude beat up a homeless dude in Chicago around 92. Bro really sold out.
🤡
Miles / Zawinul rip off lol
This man is my hero.......
Ha!! in all keys, in any tempo ..... eeeeeh, im still on the old warmup licks video =)
Key-oo-al! I always wondered about that part. Never attempted to play it. Just wondered... And I always liked it a lot. Never disliked it. But always liked it. Now I am glad to know how to play it. Haven't tried it yet. But I know how to now.
The fucking man!
Nice lesson!
The Jesus Lizard
that riff gave me nightmares seriously.. just as i was at that point in my life of: i can play anything, come at me! that one riff blew my mind, still not learned how to play it.
I wish he would have covered the chorus part 😞 I think I know what he’s doing but it’s so hard to be sure
Cool! 🤘🏽
what the heeeelll? its really that simple, ive been listening to that song for a good like 2 months and curiosity finally got to me so i watched this video, i thought that it was gonna be some sorta nutty-ass widdlywiddly solo sorta shape
The people who gave a thumbs down are probably angry because he didn't show how to play the entire record!
yeeeeeeaaaah
So cool!!
... 03/19/2020: Cool guitar. Who built it?
Watch Duane's Rig Rundown: bit.ly/DuaneDenisonRR (Electrical Guitar Company built Duane his signature model called Chessie)
tendonduanedenisonitis man lol😃
❤❤❤
So this riff is from a miles Davis recording? Well I’ll be.
that's real nize
Can’t believe you guys gave up on this man
90s rock idol talking music theory 😮❤
I was hoping he'd comment on the similarity of the opening guitar line to a line in Miles Davis's Great Expectations.
Fcuk Jones Sounds nothing like it. Maybe Sims bass is similar.
@@SiliconMolybdenumNitrogen Sounds nothing like it? It's literally the same melody - note for note
It's very similar and i like it
it's the same, only Miles better. and shorter. kudos to both!
@@pavlezvekic yeah i assumed it’s a quote. That’s how similar it is.
Yep.
Yessss!!
I need this for EVERY SONG!
Haha Dennison Kimball Trio riffs sneaked in here
