Queen - Keep Yourself Alive - Guitar Tutorial by Brian May

- In 1983, Star Licks Productions created a series of instructional videos featuring well-known musicians demonstrating their unique musical styles and techniques. The portfolio debuted with a wide-ranging group of players including Steve Lukather of Toto, Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath), Al McKay (Earth, Wind & Fire) guitarist Albert Lee, and acclaimed guitarist/educator Wolf Marshall.
In this video, Brian discusses his equipment and techniques, and demonstrates a number of his guitar solos. He covers both famous and lesser known Queen songs, including Brighton Rock, Tie Your Mother Down, Somebody To Love, It's Late, Dead On Time, Put Out The Fire, It's A Hard Life, Keep Yourself Alive, Jesus, Father To Son and Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
The programme was produced and directed by Mark Freed and Robert Decker, and recorded at Sarm West, London, England. The video was originally released in 1983 and later reissued in 1993/4.
Note from Brian :
Mark initially came to me with an idea for making audio cassettes of guitarists explaining their techniques. It seemed a good one and we arranged to meet and make it happen. But I said ... if we’re going to the trouble of recording this stuff, why not film it as well, and make it into a Video Cassette ?! So we made a ‘pilot’ video, and people liked it, and this became the template for a whole collection of videos which, I think, stand up very well to this day.
Maybe we should do an update ?!

About my new CZcams channel:
The official BRIAN MAY CHANNEL is designed to carry anything on film or video that relates to me [Brian May] outside Queen - to replace all the bits and pieces of music video that are currently around out there with new highest quality versions, and fill in the gaps; and to cover under one umbrella the other areas that I operate in … Stereoscopy, Astronomy, and my animal welfare work through my charity the Save Me Trust. Each of these areas will have their own playlist on the Brian May channel. But the intended pivot of it all is the entirely new part that we’re calling Brian Talks. This section will carry current ‘to the camera’ comments, updates and communications, and I’m hoping it will be a proper ‘voice’ for me, an outlet, as well as a way of glueing together the rest of the channel.

100th liker
Oh wait nobody cares
he’s such a visioner man ahaha
Just the way he picks is so unique.
This teacher sounds great. He should form a band or something.
ClassiC RockeR Ikr? Maybe like a band called y’know, Smile? Or even Queen will work
@@bilkywaygalaxy I think it would be great if there's a singer from peki in that band too
😂
It might seems crazy what I'm 'bout to say...
@@hadifyangtanya1190It would also be great If the singer was named Freddie Bulsara or Freddie Mercurie with astounding vocals and production
One of my favourite riffs in rock history! At the end of the video I firstly read "smile" instead of "simile" :D
Me too.
Do did I...
You are the best, Brian, I really love you💖
Me too! I love him SO MUCH!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😜
the bob ross of guitar lessons. that's a nice guitar tone, and i agree an update's in order. is there a phaser or something in addition to the usual? I'm sure i've seen the whole thing but don't remember, and can't identify by sound...
It's a flanger! very similar :)
@@HarryOsborne1 isnt it a chorus?
@@merlinthomi It definitely sounds like a chorus but there is still that phasing sound going on in the background. And the only reason I can say with certainty that it's a flanger is that I saw an interview with Brian May where he was talking about spending tons of time in the studio with tape flanging to get this sound.
@@HarryOsborne1 ok thanks for the precision. I know that he uses a chorus live, but never knew for the studio.
He used a foxx foot phaser. Flangers weren’t really around at the time I think.
You and Angus young are my guitar idols
I have to agree
This is hard as hell, even slowed down!
And im telling that is hard bohemian rhapsody solo
Bohemian rhapsody solo is easy. Keep yourself alive is way harder
PureMusic _ I would agree. The double stop bends into the pull off to the double stop on the 5th fret is annoying af. There’s nothing too crazy hard in the borhap solo. It isn’t crazy easy, but i would agree that this is harder.
Ziggy Craft yeah this riff I learned. In fact the hole song. It took me like a week or a lil more
Yes, it really kicks hard. Love tough stuff so going to have to attempt this on my Strat. Say a prayer for me...😅🎶🎸
Very good!! Congratulations, thank you Brian!!
Amazing❤🎸
Greetings from Brazil, I am your fan💗
Excellent teacher Brian, since I was a child your songs have been a great inspiration para mí.
