You're unbelievable. How is nobody else teaching like this. Maybe I'm not paying attention 37 years and never have seen anyone break down concepts like this. You have a true gift ❤️

I agree with you Yinch - good job Brian. Sometimes we need the music to do the talking/teaching!

What can I possibly say about Brian and his teaching that hasn't already been said. There are a lot of great guitar players, teachers, and instructors here on youtube that I do watch... Uncle Ben, Justin Sandercoe, Marty, Brett Papa, Rick Beato, Guthrie T, Mark Z, Tim Pierce, Guitar Pilgrim, Paul Davids, etc., etc. But, hands down, for me, Brian is my absolute favorite, and for sooo many reasons, but just want to recognize, not write an essay. Thank you for another great video. I had a lot of fun improvising over this.
Thanks Brian, I have learnt and understood more in the last 3 weeks from you than I have over the last 3 years with everyone else.
Like the sound of this lesson Brian, you are great at the guitar, and a very good teacher. I like how you explain the lesson. Thanks
There's no bigger beginner than me. I got my Strat out and began playing around with this, and MAN. What a bunch of fun you can have just doing these over and over, and adding something every time I get comfy! Best lesson so far!!!
I agree, this is the most affordable, productive lesson platform I’ve seen online. Over 480 full lessons and at least that many quikies. Do yourself a favor and subscribe
Thankyou breath of fresh air , this is such fun and you put it over in a way that even a thicko like me can follow it , hours of joy on its way with this one .
Wow! Absolutely love this. It really has a Robby Krieger and John Fogarty vibe. Brilliant lesson.👏👏👏
Thst bass guitar and drums is killin it, that is so funky my man, and when demonstrate how to fill in those licks on guitar simply fantastic, you show that the licks don't have to be all over the place and l like how near the end of the lesson you show how all the licks can be played, good instruction!!!!!!! I'll be learning this and see how l can put this information that you gave to use
#1, he does not do this for free. Brian is selling a subscription course, one to which I subscribe and one that is worth more than the $90 a year that he charges. #2, you should subscribe, you will find a wealth of valuable lessons and you’ll find it the best $90 a year that you spend. These KZread videos are all only a part 1 of if a bigger lesson. Trust me, you will get a lot of value of what is the cost of three in person lessons from your local instructor.

Kennardy #3. Who said he does it for free? #4. What are you, his manager? I would imagine, living with you is like one long, educational, but unwanted lecture. How would anyone watching or subscribing to this channel cope without you to explain it all to them?
you are amazing for providing what you do for free, thank you so much for your time!

@@chumsole3463 You don’t watch much youtube do you, there are hundreds of guitar sites, many just as good or even better than this one. If they didn’t do the videos they wouldn’t attract the paying customers, it’s promotion, it’s part and parcel of their overall operation, to make money. In fact there are some sites that are completely free and rely on people donating to make it worthwhile. You may as well now post the same comment to every guitar site because it’s no different for any of them.
Another rut busting lesson full of little gem takeaways, thanks again Brian, simple but so effective.
God gifted talent to teach. Best of the best.
6min in and I had to hit the like button, inspirational
So simple, so fun...thanks Brian. You're the best!
This is BRILLIANT! you have the drums and the baseline like this with no third interval… That just opens everything up and helps us to become more creative…. THANK YOU!
Love this format. Somehow, with the simple backing track continuously playing seems to bring everything together easier.
Brian this is one of the best lessons for beginners. This format with backing track and explanations, finaly I am starting to understand lead. I think you could carry on this type of lessons, especially blues. Thank you.
I watch a lot on UT. You are an outstanding teacher. Pleasure to listen and watch. I am retired primary teacher and amateur guitar player, so I know what l'm talking about. Cheers from Poland.
Great use of the 'doors' style backing track whilst explaining the lesson..
world class teacher.
Great lesson with simple ideas. Thanks.
Nailed it. Making my Sat morning so much better. Made a little riff from this lesson called up my Daughter and said listen to this. Just hearing her say Wow Dad that was great makes my week. Also some of this has a Doors feeling. Thanks
Brilliant lessons on these triads over the last few weeks takes playing to next level.thankyou Brian.
Reminds me of Cheech & Chong - Low Rider. Got that feel to it. Great lesson again Brian. Also love the new glasses.
Thanks Brian. For where I'm at in my guitar journey right now, this was so very helpful. Thanks again and I really enjoy your lessons!
This was awesome! I love a lesson I can inject into my playing without having to spend months working it out!!
Brian, you’re on fire just now👍🏻👍🏻
Brilliant! Awesomeness. This is really good stuff. Thank you sir!!!

Great lesson. Thanks!
Great lesson. I love playing minimalist-type riffs and lines. A lot to work on and work with. Thank you.
Thank you for everything you do.
Thanks. Another light build moment for me. My Wife thanks you too. Played some of this lesson for her and she was impressed.
this is an unbelievably great lesson Brian, holy.....!! Where you have gone since lesson 52 is amazing....grateful for having found you...Roberto
I was just looking to start looking at my lead playing on electric, who better than to do it with than our Brian 👍
Bravo Brian - this approach simplifies the learning of skills and techniques that can be applied later. While I love you lessons I posted on the blog a few weeks ago that I was struggling with trying to play your lesson pieces due to a lack of skills and technique. This gives something to work on that can be applied more broadly down the road. Thank you!
And yes..GREAT teaching method! You're a natural.
Excellent teaching sir!!! Bravo!!!
Ok, this is by FAR my favorite lesson from you! I used this IMMEDIATELY! Thanks so much man! You're killing it!
That was a nice little jam Brian! Thanks for sharing!

Great practice stuff! I like the 3 note 🎶 scale patterns👍 and use of the triad patterns👍.
Brian, You have an amazing collection of beautiful guitars. Mad respect!
Just what I needed to spark some creativity. I’ve been stuck in a rut for a while. Thank you, Brian!
Brilliant lesson, once again! Learning a lot, while admiring what great touch you have.
That's so good, terrific lesson.
Another great lesson, easy to digest easy to expand upon. Thank you Brian!
You need to get to a million subs. You have taught me so much over the years.
This is outstanding. I haven't touched my guitar in years and this makes me want to dust it off right now.

Even if I had a handful of thumbs, it still wouldn't be enough! Maybe it's bcuz of your playing and teaching over the backing track but I found this very helpful and really enjoyable. Off to the looper to replicate a transcribed version of my own to explore these ideas and grow accordingly. Thank you sir!
