Excellent lesson, David. Guthrie also authored two of the most comprehensive instructional books ever: Creative Guitar 1 & 2. I spent two solid years working through these books. His easy, humorous approach gave me a significantly better understanding of not just guitar, but music as a whole. I strongly recommend these books. And thanks for your similar approach to teaching, I learn something from every lesson.
I also discovered Guthrie in the pages of Guitar Techniques magazine. His Paul Gilbert transcriptions were stellar, and his "In the style of..." musical piece is jaw-dropping. Awesome breakdown - thank you!
Excellent lesson. I always liked the tune Flatlands from the first Aristocrats album, it's quite easy to play too (except for some of the solo part). Guthrie has some great chord voicings and melodic ideas and you don't need to be a super advanced player to accomplish learning them.
I have been a subscriber to Guitar Techniques Magazine since 2011 . Great stuff in them pages...I couldn't wait for the next issue to come out..I especially liked the enclosed cd/dvd that was included, which they don't do anymore.
I remember meeting you at that NAMM. I was there for the Govan-Humphries performance. For the life of me, I can't remember what year either. I DO remember seeing Steve Morse and Les Paul at the Ryman that same year.....
Fabulous! I would add that, from interviews, it seems that Guthrie is not only a monster guitar player but a true intellectual. He is quite articulate about music and guitar. One can easily envision him as a quirky English Lit professor at a university.
These videos are interesting. I have found a couple of artists that I really like but had never heard of because of these Late Night Lessons. I think it would be cool if you did a Buckethead episode. Keep up the good work.
Guthrie is one of the best players at the moment on the instrument just for his sheer versatility and the musicality to force any kind of style and genre together and make it work, but somehow with a slightly lose and not too serious attitude. There is a lot of humour in his playing and it's just great that he found his match there on the drums with Marco and Bryan on the bass in the Aristocrats. Cool to see him featured here again, in my mind he still remains slightly underrated. Only remark I'd have is that Luminol was of course written by Steven and Guthrie is literally playing wat Steven wrote. We can safely conclude Guthrie had 0 input because Luminol was featured and recorded live in the last leg of the Grace for Drowning tour (where they basically recorded the dvd too) and Niko Tsonev was already playing those voicings there (and you can hear them on Steven's demo with Marco). But, they are cool voicings for sure and I think Guthrie really dug that as these are essentially the kind of voicings you would use to comp in jazz. Makes me wonder where Steven got them from in the first place.... That said, totally agree with your remark on The Raven. It was a gamechanging record for many people and that did include the players on it. Marco and Guthrie's work with Steven benefitted all of them in popularity and it remains unique in Steven's canon. Raven material-except the title track-is never featured in shows after they left.
Love all your content but it's been waaaaaaaaay too long since anything related to Randy Rhoads. We need some new RR material. David, thank you for everything you do!
respect for"taking Guthrie"on like this.....i don't like to listen to Guthrie a lot because it makes my own olaying look quiet "insuffient"...and also i've heard that Guthrie has walked all over the great lakes in the States.....i know.....cheers
David never disappoints.

He studied English at Cambridge I believe
@@jonholland6067 aha! Indeed, I thought I remembered that from an interview but wasn't sure.
You make it look easy 😮

The tune at the beginning is Sweaty Knockers I believe?
How about a deep dive into Matteo Mancuso?
es como si mezclara algo de Sath boogie, ese F# 7/11 y John Scofield1
