The first time I saw Robin Trower, Golden Earring opened for Trower. What a great concert that was!

Radar Love was a huge hit on the FM radio. 1973, year I graduated from high school. That song was blasting from everyone's car!

Radar Love is one of the biggest hits any of my fellow countrymen ever wrote. Everyone in Holland knows it. Just came back from a gig at a football (soccer) club and like always, Radar Love really got them going!

I wasn’t even hatched until ‘76 so the White Lion cover was my first exposure to the song. I dug it. But then I heard the original and fell in love with it.

Great stuff as always!

Hey Tom, thanks for stating what you did about not wanting to replace your playing with the playing of an idol. At age 66, I consider myself a good guitar player, having played since I was 13. I’ve been active, playing semi-professionally all my life. I certainly continue to grow as a musician constantly, but man… I hear so many stellar players, you included, and often lament,”I suck, wish I could play like that guy”! Your take on it today was very encouraging and made me think, I make good music, and there are many folks who wish they could do what I do. That, of course, is not the goal…to be better than anybody, but to be viable as a musician. Thanks for your encouragement! Really dig the show!😊

I love all the noises you and your amp make

Love your lessons, both on the.guitar and your talks. And I always love how much of a FAN of al sorts of music. I learn something most every episode.

I agree always with your favorite albums, thank you four another great homeschool.

I absolutely LOVE Radar Love!! Great song!!

Blackbird is putting out some great stuff! Cheers Tom!!

Love the “I mean business chord”!! I was about to check out of the video and you put that tasty nugget of wisdom right at the end 😊 My new favorite chord. Thanks 🙏

Rock and roll Tom is a great thing .!.!.

Yes sir!

Thanks Tom for the wisdom and the music. Music is the gift that just keeps giving !

Favorite musical channel on youtube - thanks for taking the time to share your experience and all .

Thanks for sticking around for Radar Love! I have always loved that song. Great hit!

Yes, one should play oneself. Well said!

Thanks to you my guitar journey got a tremendous boost. 😅😊

Man I love your raving and playing. Nice to have a bit of genuine on KZread. Yeah you say things right.

Radar Love for the win! You ROCK Uncle Larry! Love your channel, you make me smile every time..... 😜

Dude every time I see you even lift a finger i'm learning some new shit I never even thought before. Thanks for the Homeskoolin' Larry!

Radar Love LoL great tune. I think I probably played that in every band I was in back in the day. Your the man Tom, thanks for your time sharing and showing us such great chops✌

Change nothing Unc. We love it 🔥

Never commented before on any video but i wanted to say Thanks! You are awesome! I love all of it. Thanks for doing what you do. I am not sure I would have made it through the pandemic without you!

I love that you find the gear and play it and then pass it on to another.. It gives each guitar a chance to have a new voice!

When you play that! They know you mean business! Love it!! Your the best my man!!

Wedge wisdom! Agreed. Gotta feel it.

Happy Friday to ya Tommy Thanks for playing one my favorite Townsend guitar tracks for us...on an old Tele too 💪

I love when you breakdown Pete. He was ferocious!

This has been quite a busy week for class Uncle Larry!!! THANKS BUK.. always so much to digest and enjoy. I saw Peter Gabriel in Cleveland Wednesday and thought of you while David Rhodes was laying down his parts...what a SHOW!

Whoa , at the end …. He just keeps giving us free awesomeness, Thank you Tom.

Definitely one of my favorite Uncles

Love the Trigger Hippy outing, you made that one great, just what my ole ears dig, love your playing and talking, good stuff, cheers

I like all of it. The playing, the sports cards, all of it.

Tom, I've been watching for a while and I enjoy your channel immensely. My playing is nowhere near pro level but I still enjoy and get something out of every video. I feel like we're just hanging out chatting. Keep it up and F-off to anyone who doesn't get you, which I really don't understand. You are so down to earth, I love it!!!

I was in the studio today and I will say say that the way you layer parts is influencing the way I arrange songs… I’m no Tom Buckovac but I am better than when I started watching. Watching your vlogs in the studio sessions have been very helpful. Thx again for giving back to the guitar community 👍👍👍

Thank you dude…kind words

This was definitely one of my favorite ones uncle Larry. Toward the end, when you were talking about playing to the room and playing the kind of music that you want to play really spoke to me. I love these musical bullies that give you shit if you don't play some jazz crap that they dig or whatever. Everybody should do what their personality tells them to do. I say play like you play kids. And appreciate everybody else who does their own thing.

You are an honest dude who’s not afraid to say his opinion. Love the videos man!

Thanks Tom for all the talking and playing. I love all the stories, thoughts on old songs from our youth. Tales and Drama are my favorite YES albums.

I love the Buzz!!!

Sweet Tele, Buk! I love how you are never satisfied until you have the feel and sound dialed in! ❤

Golden Earing.... awesome juice for the soul. Thanks..... Cheers!!

The Homeschoolin’ always, always cheers you up🫡

Love getting those little “attitude” licks from you Tom! I’ll use one tonight at thee St peppers reprise ending 🤘🏼

I loved it when you made that tele sound like three guitars playing together. I leave again with the schoolin smile on my face

YES! You would be a great producer...

Lovely advice on focusing on the music that inspires you. Thanks.

Another nice viddie ✌️😀 they'll know you came there to play. Cool line

Great show Tom! When you started talking about monitors I got curious about when stage monitoring became a regular thing for big rock shows. 1969 seems to be the consensus. It must have been pretty miserable before that, especially for the singers (and drummers, not sure how they could possibly hear the band). Every time you pick it up, sounds like a song to me. Thanks again!

As much as I admire your focus and love your playing I wouldn’t trade my music for yours. I will steal as much as I can! The pain and the wisdom indeed!

Radar Love is an incredible song! A lot of energy in that tune.

“Chops vs. Feel” was a great video. I love the talking and the playing. Also I’m digging the Gruhn’s round table videos. And it’s hilarious when you tell some guy who really needs it to eff-off. With a lil flick o’ the bird. Lol 😂 And I can’t afford any of your garage sale items at this point in time so I’m always stoked to see someone can and they wind up with a great new guitar. My chick says I have enough anyway. 😂

Ive always love Rough Boys! Great changes and attitude. Simply bad ass. Pete's right hang rhythm was always fantastic and full of life.

The more I listen to you, the more I’m convinced that our musical tastes are aligned. 👍

Really cool stuff; Genisis never got the recognition and credit for the cool chit - i😅especially the early years. So awesome, the fact that that you are bringing all these kind of sounds to younger ears is simply great - majorly cool, thank you brother Tom.

Thanks for the life lessons. Ignore the haters as they are just projecting their own issues. Keep on rocking in the free world!

Hey Tom, YES, Radar Love was a huge, huge hit in the early to mid 70s. I was 11 when it came out and it just had that certain "something' that made you have to listen to it over and over. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how you played it at the end of this video so beautifully from memory as you were "just in the moment." That was so awesome that I had to watch it over again. You're a true genius!

Radar Love !!! Yeah baby!

Keep on truckin uncle Larry, never change 🤘🏼 I vote for ‘badge’ any day as well

Awesome polytones in Rough Boys! Primo writing there, Unc!!

Hey Tom I’ve never commented on your videos but I’ve been watching for a while. I love them. I love your playing, so inspiring. I’m a session guitarist in East Nashville. We have some friends in common. Keep it up brotha.

I was just playing Radar Love before I sat down to watch. Cheers Tom!

❤our ace playing an ace

Best free guitar skoolin on Earth ... thanks Unk ... just found you via Dean DeLeo via Saturn We Miss You ... and trippin up that wicked witch 🤙🏽🌅

Great as always, thanks for sharing; and I agree, I knew it was my favorite too, the moment I heard “Me, I'm just a lawnmower You can tell me by the way I walk”

Radar Love! Golden Earrings from The Netherlands.

The primary thing thats so important and that people see in you is _themselves._ That's a special thing.

Loved Radar Love when I was a kid, recorded it on a cassette player off the radio, and then played it over and over!

Great tone.....and tssteful playing

what some homeskoolers might have missed is this is also the best channel to learn about the parts of a plant. i love the kid's artwork/projects all over the room. take care, uncle larry.

The new Who's Next super deluxe has some amazing live stuff from 1971. Amazing playing from Pete.

Uncle Larry, I love it when you jam on a Tele and or esquire!!!

Love the solo in Radar Love. He just digs in and attacks those notes

I don't understand the universe sometimes, but holy shit I listened to YES albums all day yesterday and Rough Boys the day before this video! Love those songs! Keep up the positive vibes!

Hey Tom! I haven’t been commenting lately just wanted to say you’ve got a great tone goin as always 🔥

Always appreciate you Uncle Larry. That’s some nutritious class time .

It’s been said that the best way to learn something is to teach it. I’ve found that to be true for me… do you agree Tom? Love, love, love the channel!!! Peace

You are absolutely right about the in ears ruining playing to the room. I have been off monitors all together for a couple years and I just do the old trick where if I want more of something I take a step towards that instrument. Also removes the inevitable situation where the sound engineer and I have to fight each other to the death mid soundcheck.

Right on with your Genesis and Yes picks. I'll have to give "Close to the Edge" the nod, though...wore it out when I was in high school

Wedges for life!!!🎯💯👏
