Josh Smith is a ferocious blues guitarist.
But his most brilliant approach is actually amazingly simple.
Using this one trick, he creates a melody and a song every time he plays the blues!
Josh And Tim together = oh man!!! Too good.
And to top it off, Mateus giving it a compliment. GOLD!
Vai Palmeiras!!!!
Not to mention Jack Mason commenting on Mateus comment!! Don't get better than that!!
GUITAR GODS IN THE COMMENTS!!
Mateus, you three are UNBELIEVABLE AMAZING.
It really is a a great time to be alive when I can just click and be educated by someone with such a wealth of experience for free
That’s what she said 😉
I’ve had the privilege of seeing and meeting Josh a number of times in different settings and his reputation is absolutely accurate. Not only is he an absolute burner….he’s also a genuinely kind dude. 🤘🏻
Tim, you are humble enough to still be a student. You have all my respect and admiration.
I'm new to Josh Smith, and beside being a phenomenal player, he seems like a cool down-to-earth guy. new fan right here!
Tim, you're awesome as usual. :)
I find Josh Smith one of the most inspring guitar player these days - just love the sound and the variety in the playing - thank you !
Recently discovered Josh Smith. Not only does he have some great chops, he also seems like a genuinely nice guy.
In jazz I think they call it exposition, development and recapitulation. Josh is one of my all time favorites...His phrasing is out of this world and he's got the elusive Albert Collins burn and tone taken to the next level. Just an amazing player. Tim is a monster too, he's so good it makes me smile.
Called the same in classical music!
I met Josh in Dallas when he was doing a clinic early this year. Amazing player and a down to earth nice guy!! He's become one of my guitar favorites... and you too Tim! I haven't met you yet but I really appreciate your playing and your hard work... you make look so easy... both you guys! Thanks, jp
I love that you and josh both not only play amazing solos but you play interesting rhythm guitar as well..,.which seems to be falling out of fashion.
I love these two; Josh is a blues master! Tim can play ANYTHING! I'd love to hang out with these guys on the weekend.
I am semi-obsessed for the past couple of weeks with Josh’s incredible guitar skills. Very cool behind-the-scenes type video.
This was so much fun to watch! The energy and excitement was great! It took me back decades when I was an active guitarist and engineer. It was great to see that old analog tape gear again! Thank you both, Tim and Josh!
Josh Smith is killing that guitar solo WOW! He is a master guitarist and musician!
Thanks Tim for this video! It's eye opening, inspiring and all around perfect.
Josh definitely takes modern blues to a whole other level with his tone and technique! Really a premiere guitarist in the modern era I'd say! Great interview with him!
Thanks! I feel the same way
@@timpierceguitar You are welcome my man! Glad to see him on the show indeed!
Dude, why am I seeing you everywhere? Cheers!
@@christoph.schneider ahh that's what happens when I have to time to do so haha! Cheers to you my man!
Not many blues guys made such good use of a Tele bridge pickup either. Other than Albert Collins and Rory's slide work of course.
Theme and melody. Bravo! That is what grabs listeners and sells records, not all the techno-shred around the edges.
Two baaaaad dudes! (in the best possible way)
Just saw your comment thanks so much man !!
if you get a chance send me an email at admin@timpierceguitar.com I’ll hit you back
This is such an awesome lesson. When I was spending time writing more Melodie’s, I always adhered to “anything worth saying once is worth saying twice” and often played my guitar solos that way. Those solos were the ones everyone talked about.
Man Josh loves it. Whole house is one big studio...has his guests sleeping on amps😂. Living the dream.
a few years back I got into Lovepedals and found Josh Smith there.. what a player! the look on Joe's face while Josh threw down? priceless!
Two bad ass guitar slinging masters riffing off one another's passion! WOW!!!
JOSH is also amazing... and "alive." He's just making sure the message continues to be heard and gets passed down to all that can benefit. I absolutely love and respect Josh Smith. He, too, is obviously a brilliant musician, but the passion he displays for everything his craft entails is nearly unsurpassed in my book (well, along with Tim Pierce, as well). Check out ANYTHING from him. He's all heart, and he can barely keep his Enormous talent and passion contained, or that huge, talented Heart of his will explode. We are so lucky to have him in our life's timeline.
Great video Tim! Thank you for the continuous knowledge sharing!
I was blown away by the approach of blues phrasing and soloing. When Josh mentioned D'Angelo's Brown Sugar was recorded on that Studer, my jaw dropped. That is an epic album!!
Gosh it’s great to see Josh so excited about his stuff - So many people wish they could live their passion like that ... 😀
It's so great to see that such masters of the guitar as you still do their best to keep growing and keep investing in themselves. You're a great inspiration to musicians all around the world. Much respect from Latvia!
I very much like Tim's "the view from here" approach to everything. Being humble is great lubricant for self improvement.
I loved the quote from his sample video: "I'm smart enough to know that I'm too dumb to play over those changes..." stellar. love.
I also love how professional Tim (and/or his crew?) is doing the entire videoproduction. Very impressive to deliver so much content, of such amazing quality MANY times a week. Love it!
I worked at Schnee Studio in 1989 - 91 - such an amazing time seeing Jellyfish, Dr. John, Mark Knopfler, Jackson Browne, Toto, etc. etc. making amazing music - it is very cool that Josh has some of the wall tiles & patch bays in his room now. Serious mojo!
You're basically describing the way Jerry Garcia played guitar, the other day I watched one of your videos and you suggested that we play like our life depends on it. This is another Jerry Garcia philosophy. I heard a story once where he did a little too much acid any thoughts of mobsters were going to kill him as soon as he got off stage. So just play like you got a gun pointed at your head and you will kill it every time! Mucho gracias! You and Beto... are the Jedi Masters. May the tone be with you!
It's amazing how excited these cats are to just give away so many trade secrets. THANKS GUYS! Also, it speaks of how infinite the whole guitar/music thing actually is. At the end of the day I'm just so grateful for EXPANDED MUSICAL HORIZONS and for the education in musicology that I've had and given myself over the decades...
Many thanks for this, Tim. Loved Josh's playing and your playing, and this is a really good tip. "Play for the song" is my approach to playing, too. Josh also seems like a really nice, articulate and personable guy, so he is very easy to watch and listen to when he is talking about how he approaches guitar playing.
Awesome stuff Tim! I love Josh's playing and attitude. Had the joy of seeing him in a small venue in Budapest twice now... what a fantastic musician! He's definitely not just a good guitar player, the guy really plays for the song. Thanks for the mini tour of the studio too!
Tim, one of your best interviews! I like this guy and I like the 'less is more' philosophy.
I'm just starting to learn to play (at 66) and this was WAY over my head, but I was still smiling like a schoolboy in a brothel. SWEET!
You don't have to prove anything to anyone. You have the feel, so just have fun with it. Play what makes you happy and feel good. That's all that matters my friend 😉👍.
School boy in a brothel??!! Hahaha. Love it
The journey never ends. A good thing...
What a super cool interview! And the playing WOW!
This whole concept reminds me of the John Mayer video where he goes to Berkely College Of Music and jams with Tomo Fujita and explains this exact idea. And when Tomo plays the entire audience goes nuts when he plays just a simple phrase but plays it with finesse and John says "now you have the entire neck left to go wherever you want".
IT is really fun to see you guys sharing the passion for the guitar. The ultimate instrument. And thank you guys for tips and hints. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This is the most important lesson every guitarist should try to understand. This is where the less is more saying came from. I really think thats what the guitarist are trying to say but josh dissects it and makes it digestible. Great video , you guys are awesome.
Great video! I love Josh's generosity and enthusiasm. Thanks Tim!
Thanks Tim! Another great video. I look forward to each and every one!
Larry Carlton also suggests that simplification is the key to a memorable solo especially in blues when you have 5 recurring notes to emphasize. Tim's lick is melodic and rockin' at the same time and can be repeated at different positions on the neck to add variety. Very valuable lesson there.
Josh Smith is on fire he is one of best that i have seen and i like the fact that he shares his licks with every one thanks for the music Josh.
Tim , you always have the best content. Interesting, informative , and learnable! Thanks
I was just looking at that this morning on True Fire. You both have a great way of sharing your musical knowledge that gets right to the point...no fluff. Thank you so much!
Thank you for putting into words what I always knew down in my soul was the right way to express yourself on guitar! Awesome!
That run at about 9:45 was incredible! I backed up and watched that over and over again. Going to learn that one.
Thank you! I ordered the course and it is amazing!
This has hands down been one of the most helpful guitar related videos I have seen on here in years. At the moment I do feel like i'm running out of things to say so it's time to keep the phrases shorter and stick to a few notes and really dig in to them! Amazing video, keep it up! 😎👍
Tim, your channel is amazing and a real gift to guitarists and musicians in general. I've been a fan of yours for a very long time and also a fan of Josh Smith too. Recently, you turned me on to Tom Bukovac. What an amazingly skilled, knowledgeable and creative player he is. He is also a hoot! He's got a great sense of humor and humorous mannerisms to go with it. Tim, your skill and love of sharing wonderful, creative ideas is really special! Thanks so much for dedication and all you offer the musical community!!!
I really dug this video. It took me back in time in a gloriously good way. I'm so impressed that old school recording is being appreciated for it's magic sonic qualities. The massive reverb plate behind the day bed was killer!
Awesome vid, thanks Tim!! Love the practical stuff y'all talked about...
That was refreshing blues totally smoking man
That was awesome!!!!! Thanks so much. You're a great blues player Tim!
Great video thanks Tim! Josh is incredible.
Love all of your videos Tim... they are informative they are fun to watch their funny they're amazing bus is also refreshing to see an amazing guitar player such as yourself buying other guitar players videos to learn stuff that's amazing
Tim...I follow you, Josh, Rick Beato and Jens Larson. Once again...thank you for everything you share with all of us.
Gotta keep revisiting this one, Tim. Great stuff!
Thank you for sharing this! It’s exceptionally helpful for those of us who play in cover bands who take the framework of someone’s well loved riff and somehow try to hang our own music on it!!!
Nice nice nice. Loved the feel and tone on all that stuff Josh was playing, he's got it. Also I dug the fast slap and reverb aspects of his tone, might have liked to hear more about how that doesn't get in the way.
Now, that turn around you did Tim, over the five from about 9:43-49 was sweet. All those little 1/2 step slide downs tucked into that descending form, and then coming out with the double stops on the way back up, you are an inspiration I must say.
the incredible production of this video does not go unnoticed
Josh is so awesome. Gonna check out his course for sure🤘🏼
Hey, Tim, love your stuff! Keep it up, and thank you!
Two of my favs. Thanks for the video. Off to work on grooving on some themes...
What a great video Tim! I'm not the calibre to sit in the same stadium with you, let alone make comments. But I really identified and got more from this more open video format, and Josh's enthusiasm than many of your other videos. I'll certainly take the song writing tricks to heart. Thank you.
Super excellent! Crazy good player. Thanks for the fantastic video.
Great content Sir! And what a pair of outstanding musicians!!!
Great video Tim, love what you and Josh played. Had the headphones on jamming. Yes I am a drummer learning as much as possible about music theory and guitars. That is why I am here. Josh is right us drummers who play with and for the music are the real work horses in our markets. 👍🎼🥁🤟
WOW, what a fantastic player, fantastic approach, excellent lesson for us all, less can actually be more, much more. Thanks Tim and Josh. Fantastic
Wow! SUCH WISDOM in this!
Excellent Video TP and Josh!!!! Josh is a great guy as well as a fantastic Guitarist!!! Cheers Fellas!!!!
Tim is so cool the way the respects others.
These 2 Cats are just amazing..... we are fortunate to see this! Thanks Tim snd Josh!
you can hear billions of hours played in Josh playing, love it !!!!
You two are both awesome!
ABSO*******LUTELY...Tearing it up guys. ..love it.
Great vid! Very insightful info.
Glad I took the time to watch this👍👍🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Just had musical brought a tear to my eye moment with a Josh solo in this vid! Wow
Tim you're so inspire 💛
Thanks for this video...Its good to know the experiences you have playing the guitar....
TIM...💥! This was the best...most helpful...and inspiring video I’ve ever seen about the business of the guitar, and the business in general! 👏🏻 I’ve always loved your no nonsense way...and style...you and Josh are both just monsters ! The segment about composing short ..repetitive, memorable riffs...then morphing slightly...before you burn rubber...then return to these themes...is something I’ve been pounding into my students for 30 years 🎸😆 ...some get it, some don’t...but it’s the best advice EVER ! Thanks for the great video ☝️👏🏻 Steve in North Dakota ❄️🌬
Thank you Tim outstanding video
If you have Joe Bonamassa playing rhythm guitar for you then you are probably doing ok...
they are big friends,also with Trucks,they shared stages a lot in their beginning
Joer Bonermesa*
Not impressed by either...
@@NotYourTypicalNegro Okay...what do we do with that info? Doesn't really mean much LOL
NotYourTypicalNegro yawn a jealous nobody.
Pierce, you and Congilio RULE
Awesome - nice to see Tim Pierce as a beast in his own right.
love Tim and Josh !
I LOVE THIS. That he has all his super cool musical stuff and a day bed for guests in the same room!
Love his playing.
Just awesome. As usual. Cheers.
Any guitarist would be humbled by Josh's playing. Even the great ones.
2 of my favorite players...the best 🎸
That's a real tasty nugget of blues education! Also very inspirational and motivational. Thanks!!
The country blues playing at the start was amazing. Something that inspires me as a guitarist when I can’t pick out how to play it but it’s clean as a whistle
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing 👍💪🎸
What a sound! I love this guy
I needed this..... Thank you!
Wow love it. Also master class with Tim its worth every penny, Love Josh
Wonderful episode. Thanks for this and greetz.
This is gold! Thanks!
