    We need to discuss Angus Young and his contributions to major minor rock soloing Riff regardless of major minor is an iconic solo the tone is unreal and something everyone should strive for and the freedom with how he dances on top of the song followed by Sin City is a one two knock out punch

    Good show! Useful information from both. Right now I'm playing "Panama" and "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" that I learned from you Brett, years ago. Fun to revisit these and try to play them better than I did back when I first learned them. True with all of my favorite songs. I've found watching KZread covers helps to improve my own covers as well, because you can easily see how they played it.

    That's become my official "first thing I play" when I pick up my Tele. I open every practice, warm-up & sound check etc. with a version(not nearly as good) of it. I'm often asked by bartenders and bouncers "what song was that" I haven't been playing long, (about 6 yrs) but I've been randomly recorded playing it and I actually think it's some of my best work. It's really weird how much this video helped me become a pretty decent player. Not a pro, but I make a little money doing it. More importantly I have an awesome time. In the 7-8 mo.s since I found this video I've made as much progress as I did in the 5 years prior to. Thanks guys.

    I believe the gentleman's name was Steve. He mentioned that he loses all his confidence when he sits down to play with other people. I would say, nail in your rythm guitar playing, good rythm guitar playing is becoming a lost art. If your rythm playing is great, a lot of great stuff with come with that.👍

    @@coreycongilio with the pubs all closed and not able to hang with my musician friends, this was very welcome! Only bit I didn't get was where you both talked about moving from minor to major. Fully understand where you shifted the A minor pattern 1 down the frets, or if you played pattern 2 at the 5th fret. However came a bit unstuck understanding how Bretts approach works (theoretically). He played the minor shape still, but swapped to the major third. This uses different notes to pattern 2 at the same spot. It sounds great, but just couldn't understand how it works! My guess is that it's either a mode, or just a unique pentatonic scale using different parts of the major/minor scale?

    Holy lightbulb! The location of the flat five in the minor shapes being in the minor third location of the major shapes 🤯. In mixing minor and major but focusing on a major sound, I have viewed that note as available but always slide either from the minor third to the second or up to the third, particularly in position 5. Do you find you play the flat five (the actual flat five) when thinking “major,” or do you generally associate that note when you’re channeling a more minor feel (chromatic runs aside)? Thanks!

    These folks are amazing and well intentioned good people I’m sure. Just listen to them and try to comprehend how you mix the minor and the major and the Dorian and the third and the flat 5th as they rip and talk and talk and talk and then add the caged system to the mixalidian (sp), and buy the courses. It’s not that easy. It’s like Tom Brady saying buy the “Tom Brady Play Like Me football course” (on line) and learn to play football . You won’t. LOL.
