    Do YOU want to change this world like I want to? Here are some REAL things that you can do:
    1. Spay/neuter your dogs and cats will save 1000s of animals live as YOU will help with the reproduction of these beautiful and often unwanted kittens and puppies.
    2. Question the man: Question ALL authority! If they are telling you the truth, then they will be okay with answering your questions. If they are not telling the truth, your questions will unsettle them and you will be one step closer to the truth
    3. Love yourself and your neighbor: This is a universal principle that make the world a LOT nicer to live in if we do it more.
    Thank you for watching!

    Beautiful Gretsch, great lesson. Love rockabilly. In my opinion, it's the best music to play solo because of it's rhythm.

    I love your direct style and approach, it cuts out a lot of the BS that you get in guitar mags and various DVD's and gets right to the heart of what's fun about playing the guitar and music, all whilst still being thorough. Is that what you intended, did you sit and think about the best way to teach or are you just naturally good at teaching?

  • @RobinMarkowitzcoolmedia

    Elvis was VERY influenced by Western Swing at this time in his life. He then put the blues back into the songs that used the songs but not the blues in them. But on this first record, it's just bright and happy, but not ever twangy. Scotty took care of that.

  • @tnz5106
    @tnz5106 Před 11 lety

    Great acoustic lesson but if you are trying to teach any of Scotty's licks they are wrong. Scotty works off an open E chord and after the initial solo he goes to a D7 on the 5th fret. I love this video so don't take me wrong, but you might want to take another look at the sit down section of the '68 TV Special.........thanks

      If you knew Crudup’s original, you would realize that it is a different song....Crudup gets credit on Elvis’ 45, just watch a video of Elvis playing this song, and you know Andreas is playing it exactly right. Not that easy to get that muted rhythm and alternating base in perfect time.

  • @HighOnPickleJuice
    @HighOnPickleJuice Před 12 lety

    I gotta admit that song is really awesome, but c'mon... It's just too easy. There are basically 6 chords and the only harder part is to arpeggiate the first two strings of each chord during the verse, I believe. Just listen to it a bit, this way you'll get two birds in one shot - learn the song AND develop your hearing.

    Why do i not hear the rythm in a song ? not just this one, any song ! yet i can dance above average, but i dance to the tune. I hear the tune of a song. ???? Why...A friend of mine is a great rythm guitarist but cant dance for shit. being able to dance is the basics of being able to follow music right ? Why can i dance to almost a professional level but cant follow a rythm and find guitar so difficult, yet my friend seems to be almost useless at moving one's body but yet excels at playing a rythm ?
