Brian is truly a fabulous player!

Brian May. What an amazing guitar player and composer he was. So many beautiful solos, melodies, harmonies and songs.

such a humble person ., i remember you played sweet child at showtime here in the Philippines and you're f'king amazing ..

1:59 TONS of players just don't get that. A perfect harmony is okay but sticking that fifth twice as he did here (it performs the function of 5 in one chord, 1 in the next) and it gives that 1 to 5 chord effect instead of that 7th sound (which I find less pleasing most of the time).

What a gentlemanly presentation...

Douglas Gray I've never heard him talk before. He seems like a genuinely nice laid back guy.

Thal is an amazing guitarist.

Always been a Bryan May's fan but this video shed a light on how great he was, very simple and yet so genius.

outstanding musician

Fantastic!

Really cool! Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘

everything you explain makes sense.. idk why or why now but it does..love your commentary..\m/

"That Kind Of Stuff with Ron 'Bumblefoot' Thal"

3:35 reminds me of "You're my best friend"

Bumblefoot is awesomeness

I really like how you explain Brians approach but to make it perfect I think you should have pointed out at some point that Brian never played his harmonies like this (at least not that I know of) but always did it one line at a time in the recording studio. I think that is quite an important detail to understand how he achieved that harmony effect. Apart from that: Super lesson!

Ron playing all the harmonies simultaneously in such a casual manner is such a Ron thing to do...

Ron, u da man

nice! this time he turned on the volume! great lesson, incredible guitar player

What a monster guitarist...And Brian is also god :)

Brian may's bending is one of the most tasty out there...

You should do Billy Joel!! He's such an amazing pianist!!

Guess who else likes this piece? brianmay.com/brian/briannews/briannewsaug15a.html#07

Just another WTF video with Ron....This guy is superhuman.

Who makes that guitar

Brian May is God!!!

These lessons are a million times better with just a wee bit of amplification for sure

at 2:55 seriously. How did he just do that? I mean without any forethought.

In case you haven't seen it, there's a video where he plays Aces High as a guest in a band and he plays both guitar lines throughout the song.

It's always bothered me that this shape is not made in a single neck configuration. It's so cool looking.

The only other guitar player I've seen so clearly dissect other players is Joe Bonamassa.

Nice. I think bumblefoot might have played harmonies that May innovated effects and techniques for with his hands. Lmao

Ron is a great guitar player and musician, this informations about Brian May stile, licks and all things is very good and usefull, but this audio edition of this video is very bad. This guitar tone is not good and it is very lower.

He's playing thirds alot

All these lessons would be really great if he simply turned the amp up/on.
