However Aldo I would be very grateful if you would keep in touch I'm going to set yup a studio like the one you have IE: an Apple comp. alberton 10 soft wear and all other hard wear. As I know crap about these things it would be awesome to have somebody to give me tips and things. Not for free of course nothing but the good things are, yes. later
Judging by other comments you can see How We,The people Love this,As you do.This is by far the best tutorial I've come across,Thanks so Much for explaining the theory behind the solo.Love it,
Aldo, if you ever need a suggestion for a favorite Mick Taylor solo I would humbly request the gorgeous work he did on Winter. It is so so melodic that you can faintly hear Jagger start singing along to Taylor’s guitar melody at about the 4:00 mark. Just magic…
This is one of the best guitar lessons on TH-cam, because it explains basic music theory in a practical way, using a very nice solo as an example. Lots of good information that can be applied to any guitar solo. Thanks so much for posting this!
This was the best twelve minutes I've spent watching/learning from a video in a long time! Aldo Spandaro is very generous with his time. No bullshit and right to the point. The added tabs and PDF are a nice touch.
I can't thank you enough for your generosity, sharing this transcription of my all time favorite song I still love singing as much today as I did almost 50 years ago. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
What an absolutely incredible lesson...I mean that was amazing...I love the pace in which you explain the solo...not too slow an boring and you add some music theory...

Thanks Aldo for taking the time. I love that you incorporated the theory behind the lick. As someone else said, you nailed it. Love to see more from you.
Brilliant video Aldo, was nice to also learn the theory behind this track. A tutorial for Mick’s solo on Sway would be absolutely magnificent if you get the time to do it! Thanks
Finally, the 3rd video I opened, and someone is showing this the correct way to play it. First video was like Guns 'N Roses playin it; all distortion. Second guy, was finger/claw picking and it sounded like James Taylor. About 11 minutes into the video (I didn't watch that much, I clicked ahead to see if it changed, it didn't), the guy looks like he's falling asleep. His eyes looks like he was totally stoned. But here, we finally have a good rendition of the song. I know it, just brushing up on a few parts I may have forgotten. Good job!
Thank you my brother in axe mystery. We all strive to emulate those whom move our heart to a line that catches our soul and sends it to places only musicians understand. I have an affinity toward the simple which is nothing near simple. Thank you mick, I always loved your music and especially the magic you pull out of your gear. If I could afford to pay the fee you would ask for and hours lesson I would jump at the chance but 10 grand would never cut it. So please keep on showing us your magic brother :-)_~I didn't call you Mick I was talking to the memory lol. Thank you Aldo you are a great teacher.
Great piece of work Aldo! I' m fond of the Rolling Stones and of the Mick Taylor's era and I think yours is the best way to teach a solo: Fifth, Sixth, Tonic, Second-full bend ... You made me understand what's going on! Keep up the good work.
I started playing guitar at 12 yo. At 14 first paying gig.But had to fill in on drums (he was LATE) But then stayed more interested in drums (sorry) Moving up to 2019 (63 yo) another band i;m in wants to play acoustic songs. Break out the guitar! (played off and on over the years.Hell i have 12 of them!) Your lesson is fucking amazing! Thank you very much. Bass,rhythm,lead!!! You got it all. SUBSCRIBED!!!! (i could have just watched the guitar player but all i ever see is his.......
Good job on your video and Dead Flowers solo has always been my second favorite guitar solo. My first is Theme for the imaginary western by Leslie West. Do a video on that one. Cheers
Hello Aldo, hello anybody! Perhaps anybody can answer to my question? What combination of guitar/pickup / amp / pedal (boost?) could it be Mick Taylor(?) used in Winter from Rolling Stones? I mean not the solo and not the rhythm-guitar but the wonderful singing sound from the guitar interjections (....??) in the background. Sorry, I don't know a better description. I hope you can unterstand what I mean. If the sound comes primarily from the amp-drive: Is it possible to get this sound also with a clean amp (Brunetti Singleman) in combination with a pedal? What do you think about? (And ..... yes I know "The most comes from the fingers"). Sorry for my English, greetings from Germany/Bavaria and thank you ahead to all will answer! Christoph
Ciao Christoph, my guess is that he used a Gibson SG or a Les Paul for that solo. Amp setup could be a deluxe reverb, tweed deluxe or ampeg, even a smaller combo. Combined with a Dallas rangemaster treble booster you get that iconic harmonically rich sound. Note though that many great Stones' sounds are also with a hint of speaker drive and overloading preamp in the recording console and tape recording rig. However with any proper tube amp you can approach the sound by having it dialed in on the edge of breakup and use a pedal or a clean boost to push it over the cliff while slightly cleaning up the low end, leaving a better pronounced mid-range. The trick to a great dynamic lead sound is actually easy, but It's going to be loud, even with a small amp. That's why those many classic great sounds are sought after. They are not 'made' by a pedal in front of the only, but the whole playing and recording chain working together, operating at a sweet spot.
Very good video for your first attempt! It's great that you teach us the theory behind the solo. Most just say, go from the 7th fret g-string to the 9th fret g-string and bend the note, this is much better. Very educational. Keep up the good work!!
You play with a lot feeling brother :) ALSO love the STONES! Would like very much- to hear you play and give an in depth look at the very underrated song Winter.. off of the GHS album. Mick Taylor actually helped to co-write that one and... NEVER got the credit he deserved! Always loved the way the solo- helps tell the story of a very underrated Stones song. The verses of this song are filled with Mick's very tasty guitar phrasing/playing ;) Hope you keep building your channel up. Take care Aldo!
Thanks mate! That's actually a cool idea. Right now I'm working on some other video's but I'll keep that one in mind for sure! I'd also want to do 'Sway' IMO one of the coolest studio recordings of MT
@@AldoSpadaroOfficial 'Sway' from Sticky Fingers would be very cool too! Love Mick Taylor's outro solo on this song! The fade out on his solo is CRIMINAL! First song recorded at Stargroves - and Mick Jagger lending a hand on rhythm guitar! Pete Townsend on backing vocals :) Great choice Aldo! I am SUBBED to your channel... Waiting patiently ---take care!
Aldo, great lesson. When he goes to the G chord in the first time through the solo, what G shape is he seeing do you think? Or is he just thinking of the G major scale in that position?
@@blindponyband Ciao Kent, he does play the G note here and there, on the G chord, but doesn't support on it for too long as that would take the focus away from the key. That G is indeed the only note not in D maj pentatonic. It's a matter of staying true to the material that the pentatonic scale offers while playing the right chord-notes at the right time.
Great lesson, however I don't think Taylor's pickups were out of phase. He used a Gibson 335 with a varitone switch which is a notch filter and thins out the sound. I think he is using one of the settings on the varitone.
Great tutorial but the one thing on this that you got wrong.... Taylor said he used a Brown ES-345 on Dead flowers, Explains the Tone I could never quite capture it on a Les Paul Humbuckers reversed or not
Ciao Riccardo! Thanks for asking! I must be honest, I don't know. I'm rethinking what content to make as a recording and teaching guitarist. I love to do tutorials but the TH-cam copyright policy is and has turned quite harsh. I could make this kind of content to gain subscribers but eventually there's no revenue going to be made and if it only goes to YT and the big record companies. I don't mind the stones making a huge revenue and I'm not in this for revenue purposes but yt creators should be able to earn from 'fair use' and 'educational' content. Sadly that looks to be impossible since a short while and the changes in policy. Regards!
@@AldoSpadaroOfficial i'm so sorry cause it's unfair we can't enjoy your very intresting lessons about the great Mick Taylor or other guitarists just for a matter of policy. Thanks a lot for your job Aldo. Hope we'll see soon on channel.
In depth look at the guitar solo in Dead Flowers by The Rolling Stones

Thank you ! I wish you many fantastic music encounters in this life. Keeping the Jam alive 👊😜✌
Dude. You nailed the solo. And explaining the interval note relationships on the three chords and the country bends. Bravo !!!!
Aldo that was spot on, totally pro lesson. You got a great tone and fluid sound . GREAT choice on song also.....THANKS !!
I can't thank you enough for your generosity, sharing this transcription of my all time favorite song I still love singing as much today as I did almost 50 years ago. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Excellent analysis of Mick .. so fluid and melodic
One of the best tutorials out there! Good job!
What an absolutely incredible lesson...I mean that was amazing...I love the pace in which you explain the solo...not too slow an boring and you add some music theory...
I've known how to play this for years now and I have to say you nailed it. Your break down and analysis was excellent. Very well done!
Fantastic video 🤘I really dig your highlighting of the intervals to help I understand what Mick was doing!

Thanks Aldo. Best lesson on YT hands down!!! Cheers!👍👍
Very kind of you man, thanks and may it please you!
You put a seriois amount if time into the editing process. Thank you so much. Really helped
Thank you, well explained, enjoyed learning this!
Thanks Aldo for taking the time. I love that you incorporated the theory behind the lick. As someone else said, you nailed it. Love to see more from you.
Thanks for slowing it down 🙂
Wow, your playing is so clean and slick!
You make me feel like a 10 thumbed chimp....
Excellent video!
Thanks so much!
Dude! Fantastic lesson…and you just found a new subscriber as I’m trying to improve my solos. Cheers!
Great lesson and video! Thanks Aldo!
Where have you´ve been, man? Thank you very much, do more, please.
Brilliant video Aldo, was nice to also learn the theory behind this track. A tutorial for Mick’s solo on Sway would be absolutely magnificent if you get the time to do it! Thanks
🤟🤟Thank you so much....... One of the best lessons on YT
Best Mick Taylor video I've seen. You play beautifully.
Do the 'Winter' solo. :)
Nice lesson. Taylor used a Gibson ES-345 for this. Used the same guitar on “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking”. Les Paul on “Sway”.
He used an SG live at Marquee in 71, for what it's worth
Les Paul on the US '72 tour (At least at the Houston gigs).
This is a great breakdown! Thanks for putting this tutorial together.

Dang so good. Nice touch
Very nice! It’s hard to beat Dead Flowers and Torn And Frayed, etc… Mick Taylor MADE The Rolling Stones in my opinion. 🔥

The live at the Marquee version is the best IMHO. Do it!
Fantastic video of an awesome song! Btw, per Mick Taylor interview in Guitar Player he said he played the Gibson ES-345 for that solo.
Thank-you!
awesome ....more!!
Love it!
Aldo, great lesson. When he goes to the G chord in the first time through the solo, what G shape is he seeing do you think? Or is he just thinking of the G major scale in that position?
You could say he thinks the lines in a D major pentatonic shape, but plays the chordal notes of the G chord.
@@AldoSpadaroOfficial Thanks Aldo, that helps a lot.
So he would not play the G note while on the G chord because it’s not in the d major pentatonic?
@@blindponyband Ciao Kent, he does play the G note here and there, on the G chord, but doesn't support on it for too long as that would take the focus away from the key.

Could very well be! Makes for an interesting topic!
Great lesson, can you please teach us "HIGHWIRE????
The Stones love the 5-9 frets (would you say at least half of their songs are on those frets)?!!
Great stuff - left out the last Bar of G though?
It is MAGNIFICENT💋
I don't think his pickups were out of phase. It was the ampeg amp with its multiple tone switches that gives that sound.
Could well be, man. That ampeg does weird stuff.
Great tutorial but the one thing on this that you got wrong....
Taylor said he used a Brown ES-345 on Dead flowers, Explains the Tone I could never quite capture it on a Les Paul Humbuckers reversed or not
Ok, good to know, thanks!
