A great guitar teacher has a great ear; not only does he teach how to play guitar, but he also teaches how to hear. You are a great guitar teacher, sir! Thank you !
Your methods of teaching skills are no doubt the most solid and effective communication for students on all levels. The info and stories behind the artists and their music area proof of life-time and stylez
You are a very good teacher at showing how to play songs. I know because I have learned many songs fro you watching your videos. Thank you so very much.Merry Christmas.
I've been listening to the original recordings of most of Gary's lessons for more than 40 years. I want to learn to play it exactly the way it lives in my brain. These song tutorials are the most accurately transcribed versions you will ever be able to find. Thank you for these gems Mr. Shut Up & Play!
DUDE, YOURE A CHAMP....!!! IVE BEEN PLAYING IT SOOO WRONG ALL THESE YEARS KNOWING THAT SOMETHING JUST DOESNT FIT RIGHT, BUT COULD NEVER GET MY FINGERS TO IT.... THANKS FOR SHARING THIS.... YOURE AWESOME....:)
Phil Gilmer Thanks Phil. I can completely assure you that I am NOT gifted in anyway when it comes to guitar. Everything I'm able to do has been 100% hard work and perseverance! But thanks for the compliment bro! cheers
I knew I was playing it WRONG!!! I am to lazy to figure it out string by string and note by note. Checked out a few lessons on this song and I have to say your method of teaching IS THE BEST! I Thank you for posting this GEM........and yes it's a Shame that Paul left us, he was a Heroine addict. He managed to Clean up for awhile but couldn't stay that way, so he died of an Overdose .........R.I.P. Paul, you are SORELY MISSED, THANK YOU for an WONDERFUL - INSPIRATIONAL and EXCITING LEGACY! 🎸💚
I enjoyed your appreciation of Paul Kossoff as an innovator - i think he was about 17 when Eric Clapton asked him about his technique. I saw him play live once in my home town when Free played there.
Thank you for taking the time to break these songs down and go the extra mile to figure out exactly what is played on the record. As guitar players/guitar students, we don't want a facsimile of how these songs are played. I was always obsessed with trying to figure out what the artist was playing exactly, as far as my ear was concerned. I'm sure my skills, as far as transcribing what is played on a record are mostly wrong on more difficult, detailed songs, but I always tried to figure it out. I for one, really appreciate it! Thank you
Thanks for the lesson, S&P. I've been playing professionally since the 70s (I know, I can't believe it either!) and this is proof that you can never be too old or experienced to learn something new. I've gotten most of the subtleties of this song over the years but you've pointed out several that I've either missed or ignored. I've subscribed and will be checking out the rest of your lessons. And I agree, there's nothing like another guitarist showing you note by note how to play a riff or a song.
George Keller Hey George, thanks so much for the really nice and thoughtful comment. It's so true, and that's the thing I love about being a musician, I'm literally learning new things every single day! You and I share the same attitude, a musician can learn something from every other musician out there and you can NEVER stop getting better, no matter how short or how long you've been playing right? cheers bro
I really like these toutorials. I like when he says for years I did it like this, but in Learning it for these videos he really gets it right. I've been playing it many different ways as well, kudos for a service well received,
Great stuff - I've never attempted this song or most of Free's songs cause most of the time I haven't a clue which chords he's playing - a fact that most people don't realise (they assume he's just playing standard chords) watching this just confirms that he was an incredible guitarist
A definitive version! I really liked the way you explained the two channels. You answered questions on this one I have been wondering about for years. Good work!
Wow dude you rock. I opened this looking for tab on Steely Day "Reeling in the Years" and yours came up. 'Shut up and Play' how appropriate man. This title reminds me of a statement a friend (who I did not know played guitar) said to me when he saw me looking at his guitar. "Go on pick it up" he said 'You can't resist it' . And now watching you reminds me of that statement. Your lessons are so spot on. They are like I am engaging with that statement my friend made to me. I can't resist watching your lessons.
Finally ...someone who got it right. It's amazing -- this seemingly simple song that has been covered by thousands of "bar bands" yet most everyone gets it wrong -- including the bass and drums. I do a "one man band" cover of all the parts and the tune is far more "constructed than one would think.
Thanks as always. You must have an amazing ear to pick up the very subtle nuances that most of us miss (or rather we aren't trying hard enough to hear them).
Allen May Hey Allen, thanks for the nice comment bro. Yeah it's all those little things that make a huge difference I think. Thanks for watching. cheers
Great tutorial on all the nuance... really helps, thanks! Single guitar bands (especially if singing lead as well)... the bass lick version is the way to go, and it sounds almost as good (and much easier) to drop the pinky after the first A. Actually a pretty simple song... but ya gotta 'nail it,' or it can get very ugly very fast (which of course is why it's so great)! Thanks again S&P!
I’m so glad you mention the gain thing at the end. Some of the people I have watched sound like they’re playing it through a fuzz box! I agree, it sounds awful. I tend to pick quite a high gain setting then ease the guitar volume back three notches or so, and you get far more clarity, detail and a more genuine sound.
Amazing detail. I’ve been playing nearly 50 years and always wondered the right way to play this. Never actually did the song in any bands I was in back in the 70s or 80s.
8yrs late but thanks first time I saw a lesson using the G shape A chord. Been trying to figure out what Paul was actually doing with his pinkie in that area thanks again.
Does anyone else notice how much Kiss' "Hotter Than Hell" sounds like "All Right Now", especially in the chorus? This was a new hit when Kiss was coming out so I wouldn't be surprised if it had an impact on their writing.
You have such an amazingly discerning ear...I've been playing so many songs wrong for years...close maybe...but I really appreciate your fine-tuning emulations :)
No probs with your attempt, We have all tried this,, I think 30 years ago it was one of the guitar songs that made me want to play.. I enjoyed it ,, thank you
You are very thorough and I appreciate that. I'm the same when i want to nail a favorite solo, it's the little things that keep my interest high. Thanks for your help.
Finally the right way to play this song. I never quite found it on my own. I can sleep now since I saw your video. Paul Kossoff was probably turning over in his grave over some of the interpretations on you tube.
Great explanation. I guess the little differences just happened. I don't think Paul thought too much about it and just played what he felt and let it happen. Live he used the pinky on the low E to fatten it up as far as I heared somewhere. But that's just what I heared. This is one of the greatest guitar song ever written - by a bass player.
i watched howard leese who plays with paul rodgers he is on you tube and he say quote " so many guys get this wrong i play it for a living with the guys that sing it" and he goes on to say about the open g blah blah which is how i aced it but your lesson really breaks it down in how it was in the studio nice job man after seeing you my marshall jmd 1 and my gibson lp traditional are gonna wail.
how the hell could you not love Koss! He is without doubt one of the true greats, Koss shows that you dont need a million notes to be expressive. Oh, and i bought one of my Agiles, a 3000, that sounds very close to Koss's beast that had the broken neck! iI got so bloody lucky!
Very clean,excellent lesson. Beautiful Wine Red Les Paul too ! Im a big Jimmy Page Fan. More Zeppelin Lessons the better. Thanks for your time doing lessons. I have solely learned to play guitar on youtube and can play along with Zeppelin Live because of guys like you teaching !! Thank You very much for teaching !!!
Thanks for giving all the options on this tune. You give very detailed lessons. This really pushes one to become a more complete player. Really appreciate your efforts and your playing. Would like to see and hear you do Let it Ride by BTO. Thanks for helping my guitar journey.
Your lessons are great...but any of those variations (including the "mistaken" descending D string one) sound fantastic! It's hard to screw up that lick.
A great and very accurate lesson Andy. Sadly, I don't think Paul Kossoff himself was able to replicate what he played, but back then it didn't matter as long as it felt right! Back then, there wan no gain control on Marshall amps - just volume. I believe Paul Rodgers sang the song with a handheld Shure SM 57, which he apparently did on a lot of the Free and Bad Company stuff. If you and I ever met we could write a very good book!! :-)
I get he played with the top e and b strings on the fifth fret to give the high notes but at one point you hear him slide down on the low strings so I would say he sometimes plays the A chord on the 5th fret as it’s impossible to slide down when playing the a chord on the second fret with the open A string.
So a comment or actually a question more on the electronic side for you. You play the entire Eagle Hotel California with just the background music less the lead. I'm trying to figure out what equipment i need to be able to play along with a track or take leads out of tracks, etc. I have been playing since i'm six by ear and i'm 58 now. Haven't played in a bazillion years and im trying to get back to it. I have really learned a lot and have enjoyed the videos you do. I'm just wanting to know more on the play along side of what you do. Thanks, Terry
Really awesome, love your channel and subscribed for a lot of your acoustic stuff that you do so well. Thanks for clarifying his finger positioning on the "A" part. You're correct, it was throwing me from the view of the video I was wondering, what the flip is he doing it that way for. Great explanation, thank you. Awesome work, please keep it going ;)
Thank you for your effort. Great tutorial, great tone, great tuning. And my two cents is that tutorials are for people to learn something and then, if they got it, make it their own and express themselves in their way playing it. So, please keep up showing people stuff..
Pad Vou Hey Pad, yeah I agree, you should always learn the tune as close to the recording as you can to develop your knowledge and skills. Once you've done that, play how ever you want! cheers
Great ear my man! I know the amount of patience it takes to learn some of Kossoffs licks/chords.. Thanks for doing the work for me, lol. Cheers from Chicago, -Z
I kind of figured if you tried to play it on your own that it's a layered guitar and there's two parts to it as done in the studio..it's like trying to get that dickey Betts sound for the brothers and sisters are here for like Jessica and southbound you realize that there were two guitars playing in two different keys blended together to give it that distinct tone great lesson though he can pretty much figure out a one-man version through this if you're just playing along with the recording..
A great song and you've made a good video man. It's always a compromise when you're the only guitarist playing this in a 3 piece but you've broken it down real well :-)
I have you subbed! I love your lessons! I can't wait to hear what stuff you show next. You have a great way of explaining the subtleties. I love that LP! I have never seen one that color before! I also have a Les Paul Deluxe. Its a 77. Don't know much about the history as I bought it from a pawn shop! In this lesson, I think there's a few things where it might be said that the position you play certain chord phrases don't matter as long as you're hitting the right notes (for example the chorus section). With the main riff, I was playing it "wrong" but it sounded good, (it was open A/5th G/4th open G/3rd, E/2nd, and open E before going to that "D/A bass thing", A. It basically had the same notes and maybe a bit easier to hit than this version. To me, there's a "wrong way" and it isn't even close to the "real" riff, and there's a wrong way, but it sounds good anyway, and nobody really notices. But anyway, I love how you study these great songs. It's obvious you put a lot of time and effort into them.
Wish I could have shown this back when to the 6 stringers who thought it was just like "Rocking Me Baby" by Steve Miller. Glad to see it just the same though. Thanks.
KOSSOFF was a genius,and didn't know it,you play great,and the first offering at the beginning of you video sounded damn close,remember he wrote it,and played it by instinct,and all we can do is try to figure out his chord progressions and I'm sure he worked high,and changed it on stage,and he was that good ,nobody noticed
A combination of right and wrong playing it all these years but after watching your tutorial i was doing it mostly right. Just trying to cover both guitar parts. Now we have loopers 😂😂I'll fire mine up later lay down one part and play the second anyone one have a track for the drum and bass parts ?😂😂 good Lord this is fun
i like this guy's attitude. as a purist, i can appreciate someone saying, hey it's cool to play it "your" way if you want to, but this is what they played in the studio...take it or leave it. i've always liked emulating a song so that it sounds just like the studio version that made it famous. say what you will about that, but it takes a certain degree of talent to pull it off. take weird al yankovic's band, for instance, and yeah i know they're a parody band, but they are one of the best bands at emulating a studio original tune, imo. again, it's not as easy to do as one might think. conversely, take a look at led zeppelin, for instance...the mighty zep couldn't even do it with their own music, live on stage (which happened to have sucked, more often than it sounded like the spot on studio version, the majority of the time) ~jmho~
Shutup & Play - Guitar Tutorials you're welcome. it's only my observations. not a zep hater, although studio wizardry is a poor substitute for plying it out on the stage, jimmy page. haha. that's why I've always been a huge fan of bands like j. geils band and gfr. what you bought in the record store and what you came to listen to live, were always the same. keep on keepin on, dude
Thank you so much for your efforts! Your attention to detail is amazing and truly appreciated. I started playing in 1974 and have been playing professionally since 1980. Yours and my style are remarkably similar. Are you a UFO fan? I'm a Michael Schenker fanatic! Will you do any Jeff Beck someday?
A great guitar teacher has a great ear; not only does he teach how to play guitar, but he also teaches how to hear. You are a great guitar teacher, sir! Thank you !
Hey mwillh, thanks for the nice comment bro!
Your methods of teaching skills are no doubt the most solid and effective communication for students on all levels. The info and stories behind the artists and their music area proof of life-time and stylez
On point.I listen and learn to all your work. Thank you,and don't stop thinking about tomorrow ...!
You are a very good teacher at showing how to play songs. I know because I have learned many songs fro you watching your videos. Thank you so very much.Merry Christmas.

FINALLY!!! Somebody knows the right way to play the song. Thank you.
I'm always impressed guys like you can hear this level of detail and thanks for helping us less gifted types with your insight!!
Phil Gilmer Thanks Phil. I can completely assure you that I am NOT gifted in anyway when it comes to guitar. Everything I'm able to do has been 100% hard work and perseverance! But thanks for the compliment bro! cheers

Glorious! That sounds so close to Kossoff, best version I've ever heard. Very clearly explained too, well done sir.
i thinks these the best tutorials on you tube
Andy is super accurate. Check out the comments on his "Solsbury Hill" lesson.
I enjoyed your appreciation of Paul Kossoff as an innovator - i think he was about 17 when Eric Clapton asked him about his technique. I saw him play live once in my home town when Free played there.

You have made an in-depth study of this song ..and it shows!
Thanks for the lesson, S&P. I've been playing professionally since the 70s (I know, I can't believe it either!) and this is proof that you can never be too old or experienced to learn something new.

Best guitar instruction on the Internet!
You have a fantastic way of explaining. A true teacher. Respect!
Man you are so right about the live version. I knew if I found your lesson it would be spot on. Thanks for all your videos. Don't stop !
A definitive version! I really liked the way you explained the two channels. You answered questions on this one I have been wondering about for years. Good work!
Tony Bulmer Thanks Tony!

I agree. Listen ro everyone else but this and they are all sonically incorrect...and sadly light sounding.
James Mazur I wouldn't say MY version was light! lol! : )
Thanks as always. You must have an amazing ear to pick up the very subtle nuances that most of us miss (or rather we aren't trying hard enough to hear them).
Allen May Hey Allen, thanks for the nice comment bro. Yeah it's all those little things that make a huge difference I think. Thanks for watching. cheers
This way sounds best. I never really tried to play the song too much because I didn't get how it was done. Thanks mate. I like your lessons.
I absolutely love this song
WOW! right of the bat, Amazing tone and playing.
So glad I watched your video before trying to play that song now I can play it right the first time thanks as always
Great tutorial on all the nuance... really helps, thanks!
Single guitar bands (especially if singing lead as well)... the bass lick version is the way to go, and it sounds almost as good (and much easier) to drop the pinky after the first A.

yup, you nailed it - no one else does ... except Kossoff

Great video, thanks for sharing it and for your help Frank
Thanks for the effort to determine the details of this song.
Thank You for being so thorough, Most tutorials don't break down the multiple parts!
thanx man I'm a big free fan from the 70's real nice tutorial!
Robert Oberbrunner Hey Robert, yeah Free were so good. Thanks for watching bro.
Very in depth and thoroughly executed. Well done and thank you.
how many bands i have seen that cant play that right i hope they get a chance to see your video and learn it Well done
Neil De Champlain Thanks Neil!
No probs with your attempt, We have all tried this,, I think 30 years ago it was one of the guitar songs that made me want to play.. I enjoyed it ,, thank you
Best lesson ever. You have a great ear, and excellent tone recognition! 5 * lesson
Man this a good lesson, and song. Thanks for the important details. And some idea's to try. Keep us jamming on these videos. Thanks, Tony
You are very thorough and I appreciate that. I'm the same when i want to nail a favorite solo, it's the little things that keep my interest high. Thanks for your help.
nicely done, thx for not wasting time at the beginning chatting like so many others, i like the "shutup and play".
Finally the right way to play this song. I never quite found it on my own. I can sleep now since I saw your video. Paul Kossoff was probably turning over in his grave over some of the interpretations on you tube.
You mentioned that Movie which I had seen,Brought it all back. Great lesson,I'd say the best on UA-cam.
I saw Kossof puting his little finger on the E string on the A note!
First cover I see with this particular thing!
Thanks for this great lesson on this song!! You have great sound and style!!
Great explanation. I guess the little differences just happened. I don't think Paul thought too much about it and just played what he felt and let it happen.
Live he used the pinky on the low E to fatten it up as far as I heared somewhere. But that's just what I heared.
This is one of the greatest guitar song ever written - by a bass player.
Fantastic lesson, your video lessons are the best. Thank you for posting.
I've not been playing guitar long; this is considerably more difficult than I expected.
i watched howard leese who plays with paul rodgers he is on you tube and he say quote " so many guys get this wrong i play it for a living with the guys that sing it" and he goes on to say about the open g blah blah which is how i aced it but your lesson really breaks it down in how it was in the studio nice job man after seeing you my marshall jmd 1 and my gibson lp traditional are gonna wail.
Howard Leese is a stalwart player, not flashy, but extremely skilled and knowledgeable. Thanks for watching bro.
no problem after checking howard and the open g it was an epiphany.....anyway great breakdown makes it accessable to guys like me
Great super performance ... Paul Kossoff knew how to use stereo ...
2024 now and I greatly appreciate this. Cheers.
I like the subtleties. Great tutorial.
gravics Thanks a lot!
Very detailed, precise, and just great. Thanks!
Perfect lesson thank you...
Now I realize all this years I was playing totally wrong, now I got it.. perfect one....
Best explanation I've seen - thanks for working that out
Excellent lesson! Thank you. Rock`On! From Sioux City,Ia.
how the hell could you not love Koss! He is without doubt one of the true greats, Koss shows that you dont need a million notes to be expressive. Oh, and i bought one of my Agiles, a 3000, that sounds very close to Koss's beast that had the broken neck! iI got so bloody lucky!
Great great tutorial by the way🎸👍🤘✌
Great tutorial and I love your attention to detail, subbed
Very clean,excellent lesson. Beautiful Wine Red Les Paul too ! Im a big Jimmy Page Fan. More Zeppelin Lessons the better. Thanks for your time doing lessons. I have solely learned to play guitar on youtube and can play along with Zeppelin Live because of guys like you teaching !! Thank You very much for teaching !!!
Clean?
you are a life saver! got a gig having to do 4 sets and most of the songs i needed help with you nailed! I owe you a beer next time you are in LA.
Great tutorial, very clear explanation, thanks!!
Your lessons always kick ass and hit the punch thanks man!
enjoyed the lesson thanks good advice about the gain and volume control
steve Batten Thanks Steve, yeah these older tunes, you gotta keep the gain down if you want to sound authentic for sure.
Excellent as usual 👍💪do it the RIGHT way like you.🙂👊
Thanks for giving all the options on this tune. You give very detailed lessons. This really pushes one to become a more complete player. Really appreciate your efforts and your playing. Would like to see and hear you do Let it Ride by BTO. Thanks for helping my guitar journey.
Your lessons are great...but any of those variations (including the "mistaken" descending D string one) sound fantastic! It's hard to screw up that lick.
Great job, you break it down really well ! Great ear !!
A great and very accurate lesson Andy. Sadly, I don't think Paul Kossoff himself was able to replicate what he played, but back then it didn't matter as long as it felt right! Back then, there wan no gain control on Marshall amps - just volume. I believe Paul Rodgers sang the song with a handheld Shure SM 57, which he apparently did on a lot of the Free and Bad Company stuff. If you and I ever met we could write a very good book!! :-)
Love your tutorials the best
This is very very good! ..Great breakdown.. and great tone as well!!!
And then hear him live and he plays it completely different every time! :)
Just subscribed! You nailed this song. Love your explanation and critique on Not butchering this classic tune. Thanks for your teachings! Great job 👍👍
You my friend are starting to cost me money
with my broad band connection. ( lol ). FANTASTIC.
And Subscribed.
Cheer's again from Belfast.
Thanks for subscribing bud.
Major great lesson! You are the BEST! Thanks
I get he played with the top e and b strings on the fifth fret to give the high notes but at one point you hear him slide down on the low strings so I would say he sometimes plays the A chord on the 5th fret as it’s impossible to slide down when playing the a chord on the second fret with the open A string.
very simple, and easy to play thanks
huge tone sir, congrats for the great job
So a comment or actually a question more on the electronic side for you. You play the entire Eagle Hotel California with just the background music less the lead. I'm trying to figure out what equipment i need to be able to play along with a track or take leads out of tracks, etc. I have been playing since i'm six by ear and i'm 58 now. Haven't played in a bazillion years and im trying to get back to it. I have really learned a lot and have enjoyed the videos you do. I'm just wanting to know more on the play along side of what you do. Thanks, Terry
Terry Songy Some of these backing tracks I find on youtube, others I export from Transcribe. cheers
Really awesome, love your channel and subscribed for a lot of your acoustic stuff that you do so well. Thanks for clarifying his finger positioning on the "A" part. You're correct, it was throwing me from the view of the video I was wondering, what the flip is he doing it that way for. Great explanation, thank you. Awesome work, please keep it going ;)
Thank you for your effort.
Great tutorial, great tone, great tuning.
And my two cents is that tutorials are for people to learn something and then, if they got it, make it their own and express themselves in their way playing it.
So, please keep up showing people stuff..
Pad Vou Hey Pad, yeah I agree, you should always learn the tune as close to the recording as you can to develop your knowledge and skills. Once you've done that, play how ever you want! cheers
Great ear my man!
I know the amount of patience it takes to learn some of Kossoffs licks/chords..
Thanks for doing the work for me, lol.
Cheers from Chicago,

Hey Zach, this one has always kinda fascinated me so it didn't feel like work you know? Thanks for the nice comment and for watching too.
I kind of figured if you tried to play it on your own that it's a layered guitar and there's two parts to it as done in the studio..it's like trying to get that dickey Betts sound for the brothers and sisters are here for like Jessica and southbound you realize that there were two guitars playing in two different keys blended together to give it that distinct tone great lesson though he can pretty much figure out a one-man version through this if you're just playing along with the recording..
A great song and you've made a good video man. It's always a compromise when you're the only guitarist playing this in a 3 piece but you've broken it down real well :-)
this channel is very Firm in tutoring tnis lessons of All Right Now

With the main riff, I was playing it "wrong" but it sounded good, (it was open A/5th G/4th open G/3rd, E/2nd, and open E before going to that "D/A bass thing", A. It basically had the same notes and maybe a bit easier to hit than this version. To me, there's a "wrong way" and it isn't even close to the "real" riff, and there's a wrong way, but it sounds good anyway, and nobody really notices. But anyway, I love how you study these great songs. It's obvious you put a lot of time and effort into them.
Wish I could have shown this back when to the 6 stringers who thought it was just like "Rocking Me Baby" by Steve Miller. Glad to see it just the same though. Thanks.
KOSSOFF was a genius,and didn't know it,you play great,and the first offering at the beginning of you video sounded damn close,remember he wrote it,and played it by instinct,and all we can do is try to figure out his chord progressions and I'm sure he worked high,and changed it on stage,and he was that good ,nobody noticed
He actually didn't write it.The bass player wrote it
A combination of right and wrong playing it all these years but after watching your tutorial i was doing it mostly right. Just trying to cover both guitar parts. Now we have loopers 😂😂I'll fire mine up later lay down one part and play the second anyone one have a track for the drum and bass parts ?😂😂 good Lord this is fun
i like this guy's attitude. as a purist, i can appreciate someone saying, hey it's cool to play it "your" way if you want to, but this is what they played in the studio...take it or leave it. i've always liked emulating a song so that it sounds just like the studio version that made it famous. say what you will about that, but it takes a certain degree of talent to pull it off. take weird al yankovic's band, for instance, and yeah i know they're a parody band, but they are one of the best bands at emulating a studio original tune, imo. again, it's not as easy to do as one might think. conversely, take a look at led zeppelin, for instance...the mighty zep couldn't even do it with their own music, live on stage (which happened to have sucked, more often than it sounded like the spot on studio version, the majority of the time) ~jmho~
Thanks for watching and taking the time to make such an interesting comment bro!
Shutup & Play - Guitar Tutorials you're welcome. it's only my observations. not a zep hater, although studio wizardry is a poor substitute for plying it out on the stage, jimmy page. haha. that's why I've always been a huge fan of bands like j. geils band and gfr. what you bought in the record store and what you came to listen to live, were always the same. keep on keepin on, dude
Thank you so much for your efforts! Your attention to detail is amazing and truly appreciated. I started playing in 1974 and have been playing professionally since 1980. Yours and my style are remarkably similar. Are you a UFO fan? I'm a Michael Schenker fanatic! Will you do any Jeff Beck someday?
Great videos bro!!!! Great dynamics and sound
Kossoff was a master and it sounds easy but it is not that easy. Great riff.
The sound is so good! What are you playing through?
Simply brilliant! the devil is in the detail, you know kossoff likes his open cords. cheers
