Hey gang, leave it to me to screw something up again. 😄 I've carried the (incorrect) information that Mick Ronson played guitar on 'All The Young Dudes' since I was a teenager. At the time, I had multiple people tell me that untrue "factoid" and a few of those players I respected/trusted with the info, so I never bothered to look it up until just a few years ago. Fast forward those years later, I remember looking up that album, and Mick Ronson is credited, but it was for another song and not 'All The Young Dudes.' I'm confused to learn that it was actually Mick Ralphs that played that timeless intro solo, and I hate when I make mistakes like this. Ugh. Mistakes happen, believe me - I make my share of them. Sorry for the confusion and glaring mistake added to this episode -things like this bother me way more than they bother you. Trust me. Mick Ronson and Mick Ralphs are both legendary badasses! Anywho - ROCK ON! 🙂
It’s a guilt-free zone brother…I think I speak for all your viewers when I express my gratitude for your terrific channel, and awesome guitar instruction and playing. It was a fairly easy mistake to make given that Bowie penned the track (sang backing vocals too) and the playing/ production is fairly Ronson-esque. I only pointed it out cuz Mott is my favorite band of all time, and Mick Ralphs is not talked about enough in the conversation of rock’s great guitarists. Thank you again for your wonderful content.
Brilliant lesson! I think of solos completely differently now. You have single handedly changed the way I listen to music and I thank you for that. I can finally talk music with "real" musicians and not feel like a complete idiot. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
This is a fantastic lesson, as always. As a single Dad, your videos give me material to work on that doesn’t require a huge time commitment but still helps me grow as a player. This is priceless. To that end, I recently signed up to support your channel on Patreon and purchased your “Shape Shifting” book from Amazon. Thanks so much all you do, I really appreciate your easy-going approach, your channel and all the excellent content.
you really make what sounds hard to play, easy to grasp..No way i would have been able to keep up a few years ago.Glad i stuck with it. Fun and rewarding to learn
In a world of shred guitar, I'm finding more and more that I get drawn to those very melodic chord ideas. They sit in my head making me go around humming a solo melody. Thank you for bringing this lesson!
Thank you thank you thank you thank you this is a topic I've been really meaning to get into a little bit more than I have. Dude you're cranking these videos out like nobody's business I appreciate it it's hard for me to keep up if this was a school I'd be behind but thanks anyway man I love all these lessons it really help out in my songwriting and in the cover band I play in
Lovely stuff David - being self taught chord form soloing was how I started, adding the pentatonic as I went along. Particularly useful on the high string triads.
Great song example of all the young dudes. I think chord tones, chord soloing is where it's at. It seems to making a bit of a comeback, as it were, but its logic is unassailable in making solos that work.
Excellent lesson. It's very useful to be able to see leads in a different way. It's always nice to see a Tommy B lick mixed into a lesson as well. Keep up the good work.
Great lesson as usual Brewster! Honestly as a person who struggles with major keys (blues what can you do) this has opened my eyes to new possibilities.
Great lesson as always! This is a great way to start young students in jazz/ fusion guitar. I think your approach of teaching would get people excited for learning music processes instead of just jazz tunes.
As always a really practical usable lesson and demo. I’m totally self taught and refusing to learn typical arpeggios I started using chord form melody soloing by “seeing” the chord shapes all up the neck emerge from scales that I had learned. Now the chord forms I come up with just jump out of scale patterns. But it’s really useful see where the chords are as it also help clarify modal harmony too. Love your work and your approach to demos!! 🙏🏻✌🏻
Great video and cool to show CAGED with “All The Young Dudes” as an example. One thing though: I think it was Mick Ralphs, (not Mick Ronson) that played lead guitar on that track.
Yep, your not alone. Another youtuber guitarist David Haugen did the exact same mistake on the same song. Ronson did play strings, and brass on one track "Sea Diver". Geeze I'm getting old, I bought that album the week it came out, and a guitar a week later. I miss the 70's.
Mott the Hoople. Mick Ralph. David 21 seconds in ... my comment is I've played that melody just about every day for 47 years. Oh yeah Mr Bowie did write that... anyway off to the rest of your lesson... I wonder if you'll do Jessica... Thank you again David
Hello. I understand all this but I never use it when I play with a band. I always fall back on pentatonic scales and licks. How can I get this into my solos? And what do you do when there are fast chord changes, like in memory of Elizabeth Reed? I play that song a lot at the local jam and I would like to improve my solo. Thanks.
3:55 that Fountain of Lamneth Rush lol. I am born i am new gddy singing lol. I wonder if Lifeson snagged that lol I thought all the young dudes was the Beatles until now lol
@@jacksguitarplanet Aside from the long progressive albums like Hemispheres Rush is not as complex in theory as many think. They have 1 key change in Limelight or After image but its all a variation of the 1654. Witch Hunt uses harmonic Minor i think in the opening. All music is poppy sounding basically meaning in a key and might modulate and then you hear Suicidal Tend do harmonic minor on institutionalized. Then just bluest things that defy theory. One gets a good understanding from watching this channel and i have.
@@jacksguitarplanet Im not even close To David here in any way but by learning and noticing the fretboard and theory a bit i play with more authority now. I feel like with Davids help ive got to a brown belt and notice what things are. Not of that happened till channels like this
Manny Charlton died today and you didn't make a video lesson about Manny Charlton. Manny Charlton has a lot of solo albums but my favorite was narazeth live BBC 1975 concert to bad the audio quality is not good quality because his les paul solos were tasty classic rock sounding and his riff were very zeppelinish. Make a Part#2 and Part#3 show more examples because Jerry Garcia was the first to start doing this chord form soloing idea in 1974 winterland that is when he started using the vocal melody in his chord form soloing. Vito Bratta also uses chord form soloing and vocal melody form soloing and Warren DeMartini uses chord form soloing also. Jerry Cantrell solos were somewhat melodic like in the song "them bones". Chord form soloing is using 3 note triads played in different inversions and playing the minor pentatonic or major pentatonic AROUND the 3 note triad shape. The main idea is to use the 3 note triad shape as your new HOME position. Eric Claptons home position is using 3 note Tritone triads which he knows a lot of them across the next because he uses it as his home position and resolves his solos back to the 3 note tritone triad very common in CREAM Era solo jams which is very overlooked. I don't think you have made a video lesson about Claptons "Double stops diads" Cream Era or his Tritone Triads licks which he often likes to resolve back to likes its a "Blues Cadence" to end the solo phrase. Jerry Garcia was the first guitarist I have seen to use chord form soloing before anyone else and also would take the vocal melody line and use it in the solo also. He would break up the vocal melody line or modify the vocal melody line also doing the solo so the guitar solo had still a connection to the song. This technique was used in most 80's guitarist glam rock guitar solos from bon jovi solos, cinderella nobodys fool solo, ratts round and round solo, white lions wait solo, Skid Row I remember you, Guns N Roses Welcome to the Jungle, etc all uses chord form soloing.

You're one of my biggest inspiration! I learnt a lot from you :)
Don't worry so much David. We're only human, right?

Dude! You kids.
Amazing lesson ! thank you. More like lessons in this area .
Thank you for the 'All the Young dudes' intro, one of my favorite things ever

Thanks Dave. Great lesson as usual to push us mere mortals onwards and upwards.
Thank you David! That finale when the puzzle was put together with the chordsolo was awesome.
So simple, yet so important. Thanks, David.

Dude! You have a fantastic channel here. I find your content really, really, really, REALLY helpful. Huge thanks
You always have really good content for the players like me that hit a plateau of boredom and want to get to a new level of advanced concepts.
Thanks Dave ... good lesson.

I love these Theory/Technique/New Approach Lessons, David! Thanks! PS Thanks for that easy CAGED diagram!

All The Young Dudes by Mott The Hoople 😎👍❤
excellent lesson as usual
Great video and cool to show CAGED with “All The Young Dudes” as an example. One thing though: I think it was Mick Ralphs, (not Mick Ronson) that played lead guitar on that track.
You beat me to it - yes it was Mick Ralph. Could easily have been Ronno.
Bowie recorded the song, not sure if he did it before Mott...
Thanks for pointing that out - I was totally wrong here.
It was Mick Ralphs - NOT Mick Ronson.
Ugh. My bad!
Rock on!
Good lesson ! Thank you ✨
Very, very cool, David. Will definitely institute some of these into my playing...immediately!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
A great exercise. David also shows here that you don't need a Les Paul for a beautiful, singing lead tone. Jessica great stuff 👌🙂
"All The Young Dudes" - Mott The Hoople!
Great into and lesson!
Putting the Seymour Duncan pickup in the bridge really makes the PRS Vela sound like you.
Dave, that's one gorgeous guitar.
Excellent lesson and one giant light bulb lesson for me. I'll be soloing like a pro in no tjme, thanks David. Peace.
Thanks so much David - great work as always! I gotta explore some more of “Mick Ralphs”🤙
MIck was the lead guitarist in Bad Company after Mott. He did great stuff with them.
Yep, your not alone. Another youtuber guitarist David Haugen did the exact same mistake on the same song. Ronson did play strings, and brass on one track "Sea Diver". Geeze I'm getting old, I bought that album the week it came out, and a guitar a week later. I miss the 70's.
Me too and more every day as the world gets more screwed up by idiots.
Great sounds, Great lesson.
It's a D shape minor triad & D major for Jessica.
Excellent lesson. Soloing with chord tones as a subject is no common on UA-cam.
Hi David: Just bought Shape Shifting because of this lesson. Could you do a lesson on Jerry Garcia licks? Thanks!
Mott the Hoople. Mick Ralph. David 21 seconds in ... my comment is I've played that melody just about every day for 47 years. Oh yeah Mr Bowie did write that... anyway off to the rest of your lesson... I wonder if you'll do Jessica... Thank you again David
Gilmore is great at it.

3:55 that Fountain of Lamneth Rush lol. I am born i am new gddy singing lol. I wonder if Lifeson snagged that lol I thought all the young dudes was the Beatles until now lol
Funny I was thinking the chorus for free will. Caress of steel is my favorite rush album though. 👍🏼

What's that amp you're using?
He's got a video called ( what's your amp ) look it up , good video.
@@gary6354 Thanks! I figured it was a behringer of some kind, but I couldn't find the model anywhere. Now I know!
behringer v amp pro i think

Big fan of the generic mini-brim ball cap.
Your a great teacher that's why I put up with that butt ugly guitar..lol
PRS terrible lol!
There not bad just overpriced
I'm upset that you played Jessica without a single bend..which it has..come on dude keep it as it's writ
