Folks, save yourself some time & just learn guitar from this great teacher❤
I am the original Soloway and I definitely approve of this video. (and this guitar) :)
Oh wow thanks so much Jim!
LOL, you can: I just got to your website before seeing this comment :D
I love that you cover/discuss this type of thing. I learn more from you than probably anyone else out there
Great lesson! A player that came to mind is Gary Clark Jr, who's also very good at this. His live show on Glastonbury from a few years ago is a great source of inspiration for incorporating this dissonant vibe in your playing
I think a really good example of the schtuff you talked about here is 'Masterpiece' by Big Thief, really unique and dissonant guitar solo on that one!
even moreso on the track 'Not'
You and Adrian are very in sync this year
The two best
I think the reason the 2nd is so cool is because it sits right between two important chord tones. Nice video Eric 👍
Tbf I agree the 9th is cool but surely the same logic applies to the b9 which tends to be less melodic sounding.
Yes that is true but most scales contain the 2 not the b2.
Personally I like to think it adds melancholy in minor chords. the 9th yearns to be resolved to minor third, but it's not quite there. I used to emphasize the 9 a lot, but you don't wanna express that tone all the time or for too long, as it gets, well tense.
I also like to toss in the #7 leading back to the tonic note like the melodic minor, particularly with a V7 chord behind it, in this context F-F#. Scronkier if jumping to the #7 from, say, the 4 (B-F tritone!). And the b2 (G) can work on lines going the other way down to 1 (F#), maybe an unbend.
And I often play the very easy (lazy) 4-b5-5-7-#7-1 on the fifth and fourth strings, in this context B-C-C#-E-F-F# -- or play them together as a scronky double-stop.
If the changes go to a iv or VI, I'm probably going to want to throw in the 4, too. At this point I've got most of the chromatic scale involved. Just so the A# and D# don't get feeling left out, maybe use them to bend up to the B and E respectively. Let's call it the Egalitarian Scale.
Shouldn't it be a flat 7?
"That thing you'll see people do" ---it's a partial quote of "Larks' Tongues in Aspic (Part 2)" from King Crimson's iconic album Lark's Tongues in Aspic. ;)
A wrong note is a mistake. A lot of wrong notes is jazzy! 😂 Great lesson!
A lot depends on whether you resolve the dissonances effectively, which EH is doing. Jazz players go outside but it's really important to come back inside at some point, or the song ends up all skronk and no song.
@@crimfan sure man, I was just making a joke. A teacher once told me: if you don't resolve to a wrong note, and don't stay in it too long, ypu can get away with almost anything. Btw, EH is a great teacher. I've been watching his videos and he's really good.
I definitely like the idea of just throwing in a few skronky notes into basic major/relative minor keys.
I think a lot of guys who do the entire wrong scale thing are just pattern players moving their fingers vs thinking about the intervals they're playing.
And rhythm is definitely the biggest factor to really anything we play. Maybe not enough to overcome truly wrong note choice, but it's what make the difference between a passable and great part.
Nice! So many nuggets of soloing wisdom in this video. And, not just for playing skronky. Also, the design of that guitar is gorgeous. Love how the curve of the upper bout just flows under the neck into the cutaway. Stunning.
It’s an absolute peach 🤌
Just refreshing to watch such a great teacher enjoying his work.
Much needed video! Another thing I would recommend to people who really wanna get weird is to study Snakefinger's playing on The Residents "Duck Stab" and "13th Anniversary Live" albums. Learning those songs by ear is a masterclass in weirdness, along with learning Larry Lalonde's parts on the first few Primus albums.
Best guitar teacher on YT
Eric you are an amazing teacher and player !! Thank you for all you do!! I will recommend you to all players !
I like this style of soloing very much, Richard Thompson and Tom Verlaine leap to mind
Did not like this dissonance at first however I watched to the end. Is the solo played in the lesson. Man. First the pentatonic which I forget. The triads. Arpeggios I never could remember. And then I meet the astrophysist of guitar
When it comes to keeping it real, you’re the boss!
God I love your music Eric. I don’t/can't play guitar but love to hear and watch you play. If you ever move to New Zealand, let's start a band!
You are the best at those bends down to the note.
Love this! A few intervals I like to alternate between accidentals and naturals; 7th interchanging major and dominant 7ths, Using both minor and major thirds, and even 6ths though they seem to require a bit more sophistication and intent.
Hope that made sense, great video!
that is one cutting edge rig you have going there, Eric!
Incredible video as always, Eric is the best!!!
That was cool! I learned a lot, thanks Eric.
Absolutely fantastic have a wonderful weekend Eric ❤😊
Awesome lesson, sweet guitar.
This is cool! Thank you, Eric! ✌️😌🎸
Delicious, bittersweet tension!
Johnny Marr's solo on John Frusciante - Enough Of Me.
Sublime energizing dissonance
Always with the relevant content, this guy!
Very cool video!
Those humbuckers are sweet.
Very helpful lesson. If you have the inclination, a lesson on using dead notes would be excellent.
Blue Rodeo’s “Five Days in May” has entered the chat.
There is a heavy Neil Young sound on that solo at the beginning and things make sense now.
Cool ink!😎
The intro …That sounds like when I’m messing up when I’m playing. Maybe I’m a little further along than I thought.
During a session recording the sound enginer Say to Dave Rawlings " Come on man... tune on your guitar !". Dissonance Can be misunderstood😂😂😂😂
Yes... this is the good stuff (I mean it's all good but you know...)
Robert Fripp comes to mind
"There are no wrong notes in jazz: only notes in the wrong places." -- Miles Davis.
Do you guys know of any TH-cam channel like Eric's but for piano?
I can't find any
Tasty
🤩😍
why is it a 9th and not a 2nd? how do I know when is it which?
9th is 2nd on a higher octave. I think.
Awesome lesson.. thanks so!!! Always learning something from you!!
Mark Rabot? (SP?) Who is he referring to?
Tom Waits guitarist - maybe the best at playing weird in the world!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Ribot
Thanks for sharing the secret recipe for skronk.
Woooo. Haha
This kinda reminds me of Josh Homme's "drunken stumbles:" th-cam.com/video/A3clxo6C9g8/w-d-xo.html
BTW unsurprisingly, I loved your two videos on Josh a while ago.
to paraphrase someone else, just make the same mistake twice and you're good, right? 😆 *edit: spelling
Then add a chromatic phrase and your entering Jerry Garcia territory.
i love the way you think. will be following you some more
