I met Guthrie at a John McLaughlin concert in Bangkok a few years ago. I told him how impressed I was that he had mastered so many different electric guitar techniques, and then I said, "You must have put in a tremendous amount of work." Without missing a beat, he replied, "If it felt like work, I wouldn't have done it."
thats honestly pretty discouraging for someone who sees an instrument as a means to creating music
@@dyamicorriveau9677 Is there another way to see an instrument?
@@dyamicorriveau9677 thats a fact, we have to deal with it man...
In one interview, Guthrie said that he practiced the guitar every day after school but to him it wasn't "practice"; it was "playing". He said that if he had perceived it as practice, it would've felt uncool, not fun, and tedious and he would've probably not "practiced" at all and instead do other stuff which is fun.
+Dyami Corriveau I understand that. It makes me wonder if I should even try to be a musician sometimes cause practice is fun but also definitely tedious and frustrating for me at times. The whole prospect of being an aspiring musician is daunting and makes me very anxious sometimes. I guess I think about it too much, and also compare myself to those like Guthrie, or even other amazing musicians like Ravel, Debussy, The Beatles, Jacob Collier, the list goes on. I just want to be a skilled musician at the very least, but damn it's hard.
Rick please get him to do a sounding off. And get him to talk about some serious music theory stuff. PLEASE
Yes oh please do do that Rick!!
Totally agree !!!
Just do it! :D
They can make a 2 hours video talking and I feel it would still feel a bit underwhelming and short.. Would be awesome!
PLEASE Guthrie music theory video, 3 hours if you must Rick.
A huge thanks to Rick for going into such detail on this! In many ways it is what paved the way for us a company, so it is great to see someone give it the time it deserves.
Do you guys like own him? 😅😂
@@NicolasLaucirica No one owns Guthrie
@@JTCGuitar ...It's Guthrie that OWNS you
@@Elemy69 😂🤷♂️
I love how Govan's so good it makes Rick air guitar!
Very true
His solo on Steven Wilson's Drive Home is surely one of the greatest guitar solos of all time.
Amen
For me, watchmaker , ancestral solos are epic
Actually I don't think he got any bad solo. :)
I think he only uses his left hand for the first half of the solo. Amazing
Oh man! I love this song! I didn’t realise he was playing on it!
Guthrie is an exceptional guitarist, with a Genius level IQ, ang very humble. A rare combination indeed.
Eddie Sell Guthrie is about 9 flights of stairs above "genius", maybe more!
Guthrie’s the man. But let’s not forget about Rick’s air guitar skills.
I went to a Guthrie Masterclass and asked him what he thinks about over 2-5-1 changes. His answer was, "when we talk, do think of a verb and where the preposition is and what tense do you need to be in, and where does the noun live? No - you speak your ideas. Music should be communication like that, where you know the rules and don't have to think." ME: - er more study then......😁
Pretty much, the better you get a language the better your redaction or general speak in that language becomes
@@abcrx32j it probably helps Guthrie that he's a Cambridge-educated linguist as well as a virtuoso guitarist (and violinist)...
Guthrie taught me at Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford 2000..man, i sat at the front of every one of his classes. Insane player and such a nice guy. Gave me a distinction and told me to my face, life complete.
Whoah, lucky you: and well done.
Oh wow, congratulations! Tell us more stories, anything!
Ooooooooooooooooooooooh WOW. You are one lucky S.O.B...I have met GG and seen him play x4 but the be taught by him.....Oh man, that is the dream and well done getting a distinction. From Guthrie, that must be a real honor...Nice one dude. Great memories forever. Don't stop playing..Peace
thorndog100 What a lucky bastard, isn’t he?
I had him for Technical Development the same year and also got a distinction. I think I sat in front, too, so we might have sat next to each other.
I know it's not a competition, but Guthrie is the best guitar player ever. The Jedi Master of all guitar players.
Agreed
Agreed
And the nicest dude ever
@@juandedioslanderos1353 Yup. Hung out with him a few times, really one of the best guys ever. Absolutely zero ego, which is a bit insane.
@@DeadGlassEyes I can't imagine how much of a prick I'd be if I was that good.
I cannot contain my excitement over this series!!!! Thank you Rick.
Thanks Nahre!
Love your channel Nahre!
Are you secretly playing guitar ??? You are everywhere I go hahaha
his solo from 'drive home' (Steven wilson) is beautiful
This! ☝️
Guthrie sums up what being a virtuoso should be all about: incredible technique to provide perfect expression to outstanding music.
@It's in the book what do you think "outstanding music" refers to?
Alien improvising skills also
@It's in the book Guthrie said he never used a metronome
@It's in the book " Listen son...." Hey listen, you old git - I'm an old man too and you're giving us all a bad name, got it? I don't want to have to come back and spell it out....
@It's in the book you are missing the point on different levels. First of all, I repeat what I said above: Guthrie is being presented as a guitarist and not as a songwriter here. He's no Lennon, and doesn't aim to be. I wouldn't go on the comments section of a video on Lennon's songwriting and criticize him for not being a great Jazz improviser. Or a car mechanic.
But the main problem is that you are commenting on a video that you obviously haven't watched. The video is all about the phrasing in Guthrie's playing, and specifically *not* about the technique. Rick even emphasizes it very explicitly in 11:19, when he says "technique is so not part of this. It's all about flow and phrasing". Guthrie himself makes the point elsewhere, that when you're playing you shouldn't be thinking about which scale and technique you are using, in the same way that you are not thinking about the rules of grammar when speaking. If you think that 'feel' and knowledge are mutually exclusive and don't appreciate improvisation that's fine, but then you are on the wrong channel and wasting your time.
His solo on Regret #9 Might be the greatest guitar solo ever
It's a damn good song, and a damn good album. It makes me sad to think about how many people don't know about Steven Wilson.
@@dr.emilschaffhausen4683 R u kidding
@@59sharmanalin No. Very few people in America know about Steven Wilson or Porcupine Tree.
@@dr.emilschaffhausen4683 of course that way 99% Indians wouldn't know about him, I was referring to people who also listen to rock music should know about him, he produced some of the great music while incorporating the best singers guitarists and drummers, so the material produced is of really highest quality
@@59sharmanalin I completely agree! His body of work is incredible.
As Joe Satriani once has said: "Guthrie is one scary guitar player." :-) His playing is almost unbelievable.
There’s no other player in the world right now that comes even close to Guthrie. It’s just absolutely ridiculous how he isn’t just a guy who plays a bit of metal, a bit of country, a bit of jazz, etc., but rather, he completely OWNS all those genres and techniques. He does it all, and the craziest thing is that he does everything better than those who specialize in one particular style or technique. One in 7-billion kind of player for sure.
@@chopholtz4950 that makes a lot of sense man! My theory would be that Guthrie is a complete player and is very much inspired by Jimi Hendrix, though he has such a unique skill set he's very humble and is always keen to lean new things and I believe this is the biggest quality one guitarist should have.
Have to agree. Martin Miller comes close but doesn't have the ability to play for two days straight and not sound repetitive or boring.
Joshua Meader comes to mind as another great guitarist
@@taunokekkonen5733 you’re out of your mind. Martin and Tom Quayle have just as much skill as Guthrie. It’s not a competition
Not a fan of his playing really, a mimicker of styles but a master of none.
He's 'big in Japan' where they sit around all day saying how do you do this and how do you do that.
Guthrie is beyond good.
Guthrie is beyond GOD
My brother plays similar to guthrie, not so scaly, but creative.
Better than good-- that's for sure :)
Yeap! And seriously underestimated..
@@davemckay4359 saying guthrie's playing as "scaly" is moronic. He is all about phrasing, not scales
Guthrie is next level and many have yet to realize this, when i heard Erotic Cakes in 2007, one of my best friends brought it over to my house one day and was like "you have to hear this", not kidding it changed my life, it was so powerful.
David such a great album
Wonderful slippery thing is straight up smooth butter cream through and through
Not at all. He's a jack of all trades, master of none. He's a good player in general, but just imitates other sounds and his jazz and country playing are very rudimentary at best.
@@Two_Seat_Pete_FatA55 I couldn't leave that comment alone. Who are you exactly? You are saying Guthrie is a master of none? You clearly no nothing about music
@@Two_Seat_Pete_FatA55 I lost you at.....
He taught me for 3 years and he is also the nicest guy in the world! A true legend!
I don't know how I developed the thought he was not friendly, because listening to him talk he seems like such a lovely guy. I'm glad to know that perception is wrong.
Can you now play like him..?! 😄 And yes, a lovely guy!
@@telegrampam Nope not at all haha!
@@enharmonic77 Does he still do clinics and stuff?
I played with Guthrie last Thursday and I can tell you that his knowledge of the different genres and the main exponents of those styles is extensive..he played one ridiculous solo that was completely George Benson..and then he was Albert Collins..and he's completely humble with it..he's the real deal.
In which context did you play with him? Please do elaborate! Awesome that you got to experience that first hand
Should be noted that Guthrie is also one the all time funniest guitarist of all time as well.
Everytime Guthrie finishes a phrase I can't help but laugh because of how absurdly good it is and how it goes past almost unnoticed.
Guthrie Govan is the definition of what a virtuoso guitarist really is, someone who combines technical playing with proper phrasing and emotion.
Thank you for this, Mr Beato.
Growing up in Norway, I struggled to find my place in this world. Both my parents are creatives; my mother is a painter, and my father is a studio technician, producer, and guitarist. For some reason, I delved much deeper with visual arts than I ever did music.
This I find strange since I've grown up with a recording studio in my house; grand piano in the hallway, B3 Organ in the studio, various instruments and guitars everywhere. There are photographs of me as a young child playing on guitars twice my size, and I have vivid memories of my first electric instrument that my father gave me; a miniature cherry red Telecaster (which I still have) that we used to play old rock riffs like Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest, Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, and The Rolling Stones on.
Then, I can't even remember why, or when, it just stopped. I basically didn't touch an instrument until my 20's.
I bought a Strat, which I picked up from time to time; I even got myself Rock-Smith and joined a school 'band' because I wanted to start playing. It didn't stick, though. I went on to do more visual arts for years, even starting on a bachelor's degree in illustration in the UK.
However, that little spark in the back of my head never went out. I got myself a DAW, which (again) I only did sporadically. Life got in the way as usual, and I made myself ill by unknowingly fighting it; part of the reason I ended up doing visual arts is that it was "easy" for me, I never gave myself the time to become adept at music, so, in return, it was not "easy."
As mentioned, I became ill, so I had to quit my studies in Wales. I moved back to Norway, where I was diagnosed with Adult-ADHD, and I'm awaiting assessment for Aspergers; this might have been just what I needed, though. I've had time to get into the art of composing, and I've had time to play the piano, guitar, ukulele, and other instruments. I've had time to delve into my DAW, and I've had time to experiment with both music production and mixing. Finally, the comfort of being capable again started appearing, and I have never felt so at ease.
Your channel contains a plethora of information I never thought existed, or knew I needed; it has opened my eyes to how, and why music theory is not a hindrance for creativity, but rather a tool to expand on it.
So, thank you, Mr. Beato. Thank you for sharing all of this. I have bought your book, and I'm looking forward to learning!
Benjamin Austnes Narum, I hope you’re still enjoying playing music again, perhaps you were just waiting for the right time for you to get into it. Certainly the therapeutic power of playing music means you can also do it for simple therapy even if high artistic achievement is not the aim. Greetings from the very wet hills of Wales.
Never clicked so fast and liked the video before watching a video, probably the best video for me on whole UA-cam.
Thanks Rick.
That's exactly what I did! Ya!
What to hate about Guthrie? Incredible skills, outstanding musicality and feeling, and still very humble
I couldn't stop watching those Fellowship-band tapes from the basement in Chelmsford. They're a must see for any musician.
I always love your enthusiasm Rick. My Guthrie story now.
I was hired to play cello for the Hans Zimmer show in Canandagua, NY two years ago. Thrilled to see Guthrie rolling his own cigarettes out on the patio with us locals. I'd seen his videos and proceeded to make a fool of myself by saying something about him playing a glass neck guitar. He wasn't too sure about that (turns out it was fret less).
Lovely gentleman. I was honored that he spent a moment with me.
The concert was amazing. Sitting maybe 20 feet from him on stage, I remember one section cooking along in a REALLY fast 7/8, lights flashing, sub bass rattling my jingly bits, and Guthrie just screaming.
I watched him break a string in one live show and transcribe the rest of the solo to other strings without a hiccup. Crazy skill.
@@RohannvanRensburg great! His teaching videos are also good. He's got a good sense of humor.
@@davidmeyer8756 He approaches the guitar like a musician, not a guitar player. It's fantastically refreshing, he truly speaks the language of music rather than the tricks of the guitar. The guitar is simply his most efficient outlet.
Like Rick says, he can do flashy stuff all day but his musicality is what sets him apart completely.
You could make an entire series on Guthrie and it would NEVER get old. Thanks so much for this break down. Amazing stuff. Keep up the excellent work!
Well said Johnny Lucid..👍😊
Guthrie really is unbelievable. There doesn't seem to be any disconnect between the voice he creates in his head and the translation onto the instrument.
The first ever Guthrie Govan experience I had was watching “Along the Tracks” on youtube back in maybe 2009? I remember thinking “what the hell did I just witness?” Ive been hooked on his music ever since.
Really hope to see Govan on this show. Beato and Govan talking music together is something I'd buy a ticket to see.
Rick, I though for sure you'd pull apart "Home Invasion/Regret #9" - with one of the most killer moog solos AND one of the best (Guthrie Govan) guitar solos ever.
Great title. Talk about suggesting a story!
Check out river of Longing guitar solo part, for the Jasón Becker album. I did a cover and took me 3 weeks to transcribe and be able to play!! It’s a beautiful solo!!
Jo Baecker Amen. These two solos are simply astonishing. Out of this world.
I'd love to see this too!
It's so amazing to see someone who knows his stuff, break down someone who knows his stuff. I actually have met Guthrie, and not only is he just a complete beast of a guitar player, but he is also a really, and I mean really, humble nice man. Thanks for this Rick. keep up the amazing work. Peace.
YEEEEESSSSSSS!
Guthrie is Amazing! His work with Steven Wilson is my favorite. Stevens music mind with Guthrie's playing. Perfect!
I’ve been saying he’s the most accomplished electric guitarist i have ever heard for years..
JTC has some amazing guitarists... techniques that are almost inhuman, but Guthrie has something very special.. Which is exactly what Rick is pointing out..
Love Guthrie Govan. You know your good when Steve Vai says "Man I am scared of that guy" LOL.............Love the Channel Rick!!!!!!
Mech Mod Mike where did he say that? I don’t doubt it, I just want to hear it or see it myself lol.
@@johannlop1076 Watch Bassist Brian Beller's interview. Steve told Brian that when he joined the Aristocrats with Guthrie........
@@martinpaddle They are both world class players that totally amaze me!!!!!!!
@@martinpaddle I doubt Steve was nervous.
It sounds as though he's listened to a lot of horn players. For example, a sax player like Nelson Rangel has an amazing way of phrasing and it's smooth as silk, just beautiful, same like Guthrie.
That's an interesting thought,and idea,thanks...I may just start listening to sax players now,lol!
Ron Sansone Guthrie actually said in an interview that he listened to a lot of sax players. It’s the inspiration behind his signature tapped arpeggios that sound very fluid, kind of like a sax
Well he's a fusion guitarist.
same goes for the late Allan Holdsworth; I've read several interviews where he spoke of originally wanting to be a sax player, and being inspired by the likes of Coltrane... which has much to do with developing his fluid legato style.
Richie Blackmore said "if you can play along to a sax player, your doing alright."
I caught him in 1980 on a Thames Television programme (a UK channel) playing, I seemed to remember it was, a perfect rendition of Jimi Hendrix's Purple Haze. He was 9 years old at the time. I've looked for that piece of film recently but have not been able to trace it.
Ah I know this story. It was called Ace Reports.
Guthrie is the most incredible player I have heard in my 35 years of playing and so love that you are talking about him. His progressions are sublime, playing out of this world and his ability to teach is simply perfection.
Love your channel, Rick. This is killer.
I'm not a shred guy. I'm not aiming for Guthrie's speed. But thank you for getting into how Guthrie deals with phrasing, especially with ending his phrases. That might be the thing that I'd like to emulate from his playing. Plus, he is a super nice dude! Clicking on this video was a no-brainer.
He's talked about sweeping before and said he can do it but stylistically it's not really his bag. That's where he says that he gets the tapped octave arpeggio lines, is from listening to sax players and liking the 'bubbly' sound of playing an arpeggio tapped as opposed to sweeping. Great video as always Rick.
Actually he does sweep pick all the time, but unlike most guys he does it only in one direction and follows with something else, like some sort of wide stretch in the phrase, which builds up tension and then answers in a different, typically more conjunct way for release. Also, he almost never sweeps one note per string in every string, and that's why you never watch him do a full six string run when he goes for it; it's always a three, four string tops run in which he hammers or slides at least once, which breaks the run and makes it way too fluid for it to be recognizable as sweep picking.
@@necroyoli08 Yeah, Guthrie's sweeps are just an extension of economy picking as far as I can tell, not a stylistic choice.
Guthrie Govan is a monster player. Certainly one of the most technically accomplished players I've ever seen. But to me, what sets him apart is how interesting his ideas and phrasing are. Surprises are everywhere. To top that off, he seems like a genuinely good guy. Well grounded as a human being. That mix of talent and grace is extremely rare.
I first heard of Guthrie back in 1998. I picked up a copy of Guitar Techniques magazine because it had a transcription of 'Welcome to the Jungle'. It was Guthrie that had recorded the song and backing track on the CD that came with the magazine.
The first time I heard about Guthrie was back in 2011, playing live his "Wonderful slippery thing", and I was so thrilled because I could never find some specific guitar sounds, actually instrumentals, that were reflecting with me, until that one day... I liked that jazzy fusion, all the phrasing and "jockey" playing, so I kept watching other related videos with Guthrie and since then, his style of playing had such a bing impact on my guitar playing - just the right impact that I wanted. Sure at that time I was saying to myself how I could never be as good as him, but during these 8 years I actually realized how I don't need to be as good as him, but rather to be as good as myself, to play with the emotions that I have.
I don't even know how I would play the guitar today if I haven't had watched that video in 2011.
big big thanks mr. GOVAN! ;)
I see he has recent videos and interviews. You ever try to contact him? It would have been nice to have a combo 'Inside the Sound' and interview.
I've been lucky enough to see him live with The Aristocrats, somehow ended up on the guest list in a really small venue (150 people max), first row, even sitting on a chair, close enough to put my feet on the podium (which was only like 20cm/8 inches high). Just a really insane and hilariously good display of skill, feel and chemistry. When you think they're doing impossible things already, they kick it up a few notches in a good way. Lots of humour in their music, lots of small references to different songs from different artists
Guthrie had the best tone I've ever heard. Also an amazing player, probably one of, if not the most talented there ever has been.
Guthrie is one of the tastiest, most amazing players ever!! He just makes me giggle in awe sometimes!
Guthrie Govan is Legendary. Absolute Monster Guitar Player. Just a Fire-breathing Dragon "ala" John Coltrane or Allan Holdsworth. Love G.G.- Awesome Series Rick. Enjoy your channel tremendously. oNe LovE from NYC.
He's been a seriously good player for a long time. Way back in the 90s I used to see tuition pieces from him in UK guitar magazines.
Excellent teacher too with a lovely calm demeanor.
i noticed your vibrato is coming from the soul and thats whats precious to me Rick
Wow. It's fun to discover you can still be amazed by a guitarist at this late stage in guitar evolution.
Guthrie is that good ❤️
Brilliant Rick, your channel is amazing, love it! 🎸
I love your love of Govan. He really is extraordinary isn't he? he also talks really intelligently about guitars and music and he's very generous with his insights. He really lives and breathes guitar. I envy you Rick - you can play his licks! you're no slouch.
Awesome! This new series looks really promising! The Guthrie-video is awesome!
Inside the Sound of!!!!!! Just like we all discussed yesterday. Your channel is so much fun, Rick!!!!!
haha that was fun!
Watching Rick air guitar to Guthrie - it sparks joy
A interview of Guthrie in your channel is a must! Love guthrie
Great video, Rick! And a fantastic new concept :) Guthrie is my definitely favorite contemporary rock/fusion player. I discovered him when I heard Steven Wilson's song "Ancestral", which has probably my favorite rock solo of all time
But yeah, I hope that there is going to be some classical and film composers here, too, like Howard Shore, Debussy, Thomas Newman etc. :)
You absolutely hit the spot of Guthries playing in my opinion. Great work Rick!
That was a fantastic video. Thanks Rick.
More!!! Thank you for this so much Rick.
Rick, you picked up 47K subs in the last few weeks alone. Amazing. Beautiful PRS btw.
Holy christ! I cant believe Guthrie is 49 years old. I thought he is just in his twenties!
In 2007 he was 36 :)
This series is super great Job Rick !
Awesome, Rick, and great idea about the whole series. Thank you!
Guthrie is an example of how you can start to think when you break down every possible barrier technically. He is 100% focused on the music and I'm sure he doesn't even realize what he's actually doing. He thinks of an idea = it's being played just how he is imagining it. I've seen him live with Steven Wilson, The Aristocrats, and Solo (w/ Jon Finn and Nili Brosh). He is that good. Every single performance is unique and flavorful.
His improvisations are so good, most professional guitar players likely couldn't even write, rehearse, and perform something of that caliber.
Guthrie Govan is an absolute lord of guitar. Musically intellectual yet totally in control and brimming with taste and chops that seem beyond us mere human germs. Full on respect to you Mr. Beato for not only breaking him down to a slightly more digestible state but for proving yet again that you're not only a musical scholar to envy but a pretty nifty guitarist in your own right.
Gorgeous tone by the way. Any chance of some insight into your chain?
All the very best and much love!
Man! Absolutely. Such a fan of Govan for quite some time and more and more impressed w/ Mr Beato all the time on many levels. He had me at Frampton.
New favorite series. TY Mr Beato.
I saw Guthrie live in a very small pub in a town near here a few years ago. The place was packed. Awesome guitarist and such a nice, down-to-earth chap. Get him for a Sounding Off - it would be great.
Its so cool that Rick Beato thinks Guthrie is as amazing as I do!
Rick, how come you never kept this series going? Or did it just continue under a different name? It was such a good idea!
He set the bar too high 😄
@@peyator lmao 🤣
I am super excited about this series!! Thanks for doing this!
👌👌
What amazes me about Guthrie is that he has mastered so many genres of music. He doesn't sound like someone who's just dabbled in a few things, but plays them better than most pros who have played one genre their whole life. He has several lifetimes of a mere mortal guitarist's knowledge.
Great video, gonna be a great series. If i may suggest some players for the future, Allan Holdsworth, Wes Montgomery, Jimi Hendrix, Jerry Garcia, David Gilmour, Mark Knopfler
Guthrie and Ron Thal are the most unique guitarist today
Yep, Thal is gold. Check out Feodor Dosumov
Agree... But something important is missing. Buckethead.
@@kentaprestberg7524 never giving him a actual try, I have only listen to a couple of his songs. Could you recommend me an album?
Buckethead has so many albums, I don't know where to begin
@@SuperXtoon same, that's always my problem
I love the idea behind this series! Thanks Rick!
Omigoodness this is way, most excellent! Thanks Rick!
Amazing concept! Way to keep it fresh, man. Love Guthrie... My friend was a student of his and says he's the greatest guy. Assuming you won't limit this series to only guitarists? Would love an episode on John Bonham :P
All instruments and styles!!
Inside The Sound Of: Django Reinhardt please
I like your profile photo
THANK YOU, I feel like rick pretends he doesn't exist for some reason.
Looking forward to this new series, Rick. Very smart to keep reinventing your channel this way. Keep it up!
Thanks, Rick. I always like your joyous videos!
Can we get a WMTSG on Steven Wilson's "Home Invasion/Regret #9" now? :D
Please
Guthrie is the guy who has no competition or comparison.
I heard Jimmy Page , SRV , and as mentioned Jeff BecK
@@JohmathanBSwift Jesus. You've no idea where Guthrie is and these guys are.

Nonsense!
@@youmothershouldknow4905 You didn't even listen to this video !

@@lll19977 Yes I do , and Rick mentions Jeff Beck .
You did listen to the video.
I love the new thing that pops up for the Beato Book!
Found this to be your best vid yet. Thank you.
Can you do the guitar virtuoso Lil Wayne next? He has a killer guitar solo you should totally check out!!!
Don't forget that Jonas brothers boy and his killer micro tone bends
wow what an original and brave critique. why pick on low hanging fruit? who spends that much time being bitter and hating instead of creating something.
@@DroneCorpse ..I like the point you made.
But I think the guy was just kidding around but I do like the point you made though "Why pick on low hanging fruit?"
...Sid R. 2019...
@@DroneCorpse WTF are you talking about? Did your undies get in a twist over the terrible offense to Lil Wayne or a Jonas? Otherwise, how the heck does your post relate to any above it. And seriously, where is the offense even if you like those guys?
I see lighthearted joking, and you take it as "bitter and hating"? How silly; lighten up and live in the real world where people can say silly things about celebs without causing brains to explode (except maybe yours).
For my own contribution, I'd like to suggest Rick analyze the underrated sophistication of Adam Sandler's mastery of modern harmony on acoustic guitar and vocal accompaniment! Sheer musical genius!
Would love to see Steve Morse here.
Amazing, Rick 😊
Love your passion
Wonderful for Rik Beato to highlight Guthrie Govan. Two Masters together, finally. I am so glad to see Guthrie live with The Aristocrats. Just an unbelievable player.
PLEASE DO "INSIDE THE SOUND OF: JACOB COLLIER"!!!
That dude is astounding; his videos are some of the best music videos on UA-cam for my money, not just for the composing, playing, and arranging, all amazing, but also the amazing video artistic and production skills! A real savant, in my opinion!
Great vid! Could you do video on Kevin Parker?
Please continue this series Rick .This was super.
I found out about him from the exact same video in 2017. I don’t know much about music, but I couldn’t stop listening.
"There is really no one like him" Greg Howe ... Though I believe you are right in the end because Guthrie took that blueprint and added an even more solid improv talent .
Guthrie is one of my favourite players! But what about Greg Koch?
Greg is player on another level to most.
Steve Vai - "i could be up close watching and i still couldn't steal his stuff, he's a freak"
First video I see from this channel and I'm already in love with it!
Rick, I beg you. Please make more of these videos focusing on Govan’s improvs. He’s the most interesting guitarist on the planet. This video is amazing and so helpful. Pretty please??🙏
Would love to see Alex Hutchings here!
