I love that he's actually giving humble advice on practical songwriting rather than just being like, "Play like me...*insane shred*....got that? I'll play it again *insane shred*". This is a lot more helpful than that. haha
Dennis Osborn did you know that Paul was once removed from a class that he was teaching to? He told the story about how he would just show-off and his students told the dean or someone in a higher position that they didnnt like the way he taught.
once i realized that all music is rhythm, i became a lot more musically free. this is good advice for any musician.
yeah i learn alot about melody from singing lessons and ryhthm from drum lessons
Toller Brown for sure. learning drums really helped me too as well as singing. learning bass and piano helped too. i found the more instruments i learned, the more aware i was of how a song comes together and i was able to be a lot more tasteful with my playing.
one of the most underrated musicians if you ask me
He was huge in his day and is still highly regarded by guitarists. I've seen him in covers competitions in Japan playing cover after cover, the guy knows more than most people in the industry and in that regard he is under-estimated, his skill level speaks for itself, he's a legend.
His utter and complete LOVE for guitar and all things musical in general is just so infectious. :-D
Aside from his excellent guitar playing, I've always admired PG for how well he can articulate new musical ideas to other players.
This is some wicked talent, knowledge, playing, advice, delivered with humble heart. Truly rare combination.
This video has changed the way I approach guitar and music forever
PG is awesome. Turns out he's not only and incredible guitarist, but also a fantastic teacher. This is the sort of lesson that all guitarists should learn.
+stephen gilliss Agreed. I'm not even a guitarist and found this lesson quite useful!
That guy in the background on the kit just staring insanely is hilarious.
this is what makes paul such an awesome guitar player and teacher. Some of the things he talks about are so simple but so effective, and he explains them in such a way that any guitar player with any amount of ability can use them. F*cking legend.
Eargasmic Lesson.. Sweet advice...Always learn something everyday..Thank you Paul G and band...
This perfectly illustrates why Paul is arguably *_the_* 'best'.
In the wake of Paul's rise on Yngwie's heels in the mid-1980s, there are now literally countless ace players, both known and obscure. Some are artists, others are practiced technicians. Paul's genuine *_style,_* well beyond perfected chops, defines his excellence. Total package. His lucid explanations and practical demonstrations are as accessible as they get.
To me, Paul's also the most underrated -- or perhaps better-said, the least recognized -- and most in-the-pocket rhythm guitarist to appear thus far. He's an absolute groove monster whose facility as a rhythm player has always been overshadowed by his own prowess and fame as a 'shredder'. Nice guy, too. He allowed me to videotape a clinic he did back in '95. I *_MUST_* get that on TH-cam, all these years after the fact. Great clinic, with a lot of improvisation played off of audience involvement.
Paul Gilbert is 'the best', as much as I dislike and discourage the use of that title, because his aptitude represents an ideal combination of what can be taught and what can only be gifted. Style.
Bill Holt waiting for your upload man! Yes, Paul is the most humble, down-to -earth guy when explaining his craft
That was GREAT advice!!!
I still can't thankyou enough pual, it.'s been years now i don't even know how long it has been, your humble advice has been guiding me in approaching the rigjt way to become a better musicianshio. Gid bless you Pual...
One of the BEST lessons i have seen yet on youtube! I love this guy! Its great that he does these clinics because hes such a natural teacher and due to his career, teaching is probably not on his radar screen at all. You can just sesnse his pure love for the instrument in these videos. Would be great to have a one on one lesson/jam with him.
My favorite guitar lesson ever!!!! Along with the facial expressions.
The world is a better place with Paul Gilbert in it.
Another great music lesson from the legendary Paul G!
This proves that everything in music is a inspired variation of something else. Creativity is being able to make something of your own out a inspiration from something that was done by someone else before you.
Paul's lessons are among the most helpful I've seen - what a nice chap he is too!
i've never been so happy to know how to play smoke on the water on guitar
because now i can play something that paul gilbert plays
5.17 the moment paul says "drummers" look at the drummers face! aww he caught the smile before he went un rocknroll but we saw it! must feel great having Paul Gilbert refer to you as a "master" ; )
This was awesome, Thanks Paul Gilbert!!!
well this man obviously just opened a whole new realm of ideas infinitely for me one of the most useful videos ive ever seen
Paul Gilbert!!!! I need say no more... but I will. From Chet, to Jimi, to Eric, to Rik, to Eddie, to Yngwie, to countless others of greatness, I feel Paul is not only up with the best but also a great instructor and teacher as well!
6:33
Oh my God! He fucked up. He's human you guys. He's just like us. *weeps wih joy*
he did it on purpose to make us think he isn't a robot, he does it once in a while... but the "i can destroy" album cover gives him away
This has just changed my life!
used to do this with vocals to guitars, i don't know what made me stop doing it, probably my teacher because he made me learn loads of licks (not that its bad). well thanks for reminding me Paul, big fan :D
Paul Giblert is not only an INCREDIBLE guitar player, but an EXTREMELY AMAZING teacher as well. He makes everything easy to understand, he's a god.
I can't stop watching these vids
I love '70s bands too. I love seeing him play Rush.
Awesomeness with a BIG touch of good vibe... That my friend is the formal definition of Paul Gilbert
mind blown, amazing concept and skill!
that was such useful information!!!
paul gilbert rocks !!
Thank God for PG. He makes the world a much better place.
Paul is truly amazing. Never new he was a really good vocalist. Putting the guitar and his vocals at the same time is something I was really inspired by. Truly a great artist. Would love to take lessons from him , I really don"t think I could keep up with all the scales he uses though.
When Paul and the drummer are doing a little jam, I enjoyed it greatly
maestro you are great!!!
ΘΕΟΣ ΕΙΣΑΙ ΣΕ ΕΙΔΑ ΚΑΙ ΣΤΗΝ ΑΘΗΝΑ!!!
I SAW YOU IN GREECE PAUL!!!
GOD BLESS YOU!!!
Give this man a cigar!
I'll have to look up more of his stuff.
that was absolutely awesome!!!
he's professional definetely
I love Paul Gilbert; what a fantastic guy.
Damn, that was the best information I've heard in a long time
7:18 I need to practice that handshake. Picks always fall off my hand if I try to do that.
Man, everything he says makes so much sense! I've got to try that phrasing thing out with my drummer!
when he says rhythm, it's also about having musical space... divisions between the group of notes instead of just constant flow of notes in insane speeds in typical shred.
The first person I've heard outside of Deep Purple who can play Smoke on the Water and have me not want to roll my eyes! Well done Paul!!!
1:35 oooohhhh myyyyy goooodddd
i have watched a thousand videos of paul gilbert and always thought(knew) that he was a robot but he makes a mistake so hes humans its possible for humans to play like paul gilbert.. this gives me one hell of a lot of hope for the future
@mccheese95 He 100% explains exactly what I'm talking about within first 2 minutes. It's impossible to make some creative without some sort of influence. Even if it's a bird singing or a car horn honking, that influence is what triggers creativity. The genre of hip-hop was created using samples of music. People have sampled Jon Bonham drum beats when producing hip hop and created something new with that influence. The Paul Gilbert and Deep Purple example isn't that direct,but it's the same idea.
awesome advice and a great guy and player.Too many of us players spend a lot of time of lead and solos cuz it's cool and who doesn't want to sound cool? But rhythm is the stuff,without it there are no tasty solos or songs,The backbone of all music.
This guy is probably the coolest guitar player on the world. I'm always amazed about him :D!
paul! you got me out of said rut! :D never thought it would end. although half the licks were racer x riffs n such so you kind of put me there to begin with. damn you and your great song writing and guitar skills. also thank you and your great song writing and guitar skills
really good advice paul! thankyou!
Thank you!!!!
Paul. You are modest, dominant, one of the best, and everytime i watch you i'm inspired. Everything you play is golden and I wish I knew 1/20th of what you know. Thank you Paul for everything you do :) ps.......i love you... LOL
Your not gonna like this but that answer in an essence proves my point. You listened to them they influenced you, then you made music. I played with a band for 6 years, people at gigs would say, what do you call that? never heard anything like it! In reality we weren't trying to sound like anything, but I realized we're doing things different, If i put my mind to it, it has roots based deep in other things. Blues isn't African, but thats its origin if you do that math historically and musically.
Maybe he's sweaty because his guitar is like 13 pounds heavy hahaha
Anyway, these videos from this clinic are like one of the best video-lessons I ever saw, and they are free.
Anyone else would make this a DVD and charge us some bucks to see it.
simply love these videos ;)
That rhythm trade off melted my face
great advice and inspiration.
Paul Gilbert has to be one of the coolest guitarists
Good to watch

I don't play much guitar at all. I'm honestly only watching all of these videos because this guy is so well spoken and interesting. And he's a fucking boss
A freakin' Music Doctor and a Guitar Sergeon!.......

Awesome guy!!!
he knows all the epic songs in the universe...
great, thats what opens to me ))
Cool, this is something I can use!

He's so cool
Wow poor guy. I can hear how sick he is, but there he is chugging along. what a champ :D
I liked Blackfoot's version of wishing well best..... Great lesson PG ....!!!!
Amazing hero!

Man, that guy rocks
6:45...Killler Tone!!! Excellent advice as usual. Nice one Paul :)
Legend
Well said! The power of this lesson should not be under estimated:)
@TonyMistry I couldn't agree more.. Paul is a honest down to earth COOL guy..
Paul is so cool....
Genius.
That made me laugh heartily.
the drummer owned paul gilbert at that little jam
The drummers is thinking. "Damn man, im just sitting here, nah its ok i'm getting paid anyway."
YYAASSS *the drummer*
7:36 says it all!
