My buds were in a cover band called damage inc.. Hung out watching them at practice, my buds says, bro you should play bass.. He wrote down the tab for " for whom the bell tolls".. My first tune I learned.. 1992 🤘
Kenny Hickey mentioning WPLJ (95.5) brings back a lot of memories from the 70's and early 80's. People forget what a great rock channel that was back then. Heard my first Zeppelin song on PLJ. "Get the Led out"!! IYKYK
7:40 my son is 9, and he recently wanted to try playing guitar, he loves nirvana and Van Halen (weird combo for my old self 😂) and come as you are if one of the first things he learned thanks to TH-cam and practice.. crazy how the traditions continue
My older brother had the song book Harvest by Neil Young back in 82. That's how I learned chords. From there went to dirty distortion learning AC/DC. So on and so on, all by ear. Too poor to hire a teacher and there was no U-Tube back then.
Lots of us started way, way before YT. So much easier now. A quick search and you can find a lesson on nearly any song. They may not be complete, but they will get you started.
I stayed up late and watched Cal Jam 2 in 1978, and Ted Nugent played Cat scratch fever and had the mic trapped in his teeth, it looked insane and that’s when I decided I would like to learn guitar
@@rediron44 there was a time back in late 70's I think it was. Kiss did an interview with I believe was Tom Snyder. He was a talk show host. You gotta pull it up, it's on TH-cam. Ace had me rolling. He was obviously drunk or whatever. It was hysterical. The best part of that interview was watching Gene Simmons really pissed off. If you can check it out. Let me know if you were laughing/liked it.
Fascinating to see. I wonder what the 1st riffs of my heroes were? Malmsteen, Vai, Impellitteri, Iommi, Eric Johnson, Joe Bonamassa. Can we add our own? For me it was Black Sabbath (the song), then Krakatoa (Malmsteen), & the Erotic Nightmares (Vai).
Says a Van Halen riff - then proceeds to demonstrate one that Van Halen did a cover of and never acknowledged The Kinks and the original version and the impact of that distorted guitar in the early 60s on the history of music. Plus Sunshine Of Your Love played in completely the wrong place - watch how Clapton plays it......
Dude, shut up. Jesus Christ. He’s talking about who got him into guitar and you’re over there sitting in your underwear in your mom’s basement acting like you know what you’re talking about.
Dude, John 5 is literally written all kinds of music. Have you ever seen him with the creatures? Have you ever seen him do the banjo stuff I mean he’s written all kinds of music dude.
Have you never seen any of his solo material? 🤔 doesn’t sound like you have. He literally tours solo with his own music. I saw him about a year ago or so for one of his solo shows. The man is brilliant with a guitar.
Incredibly talented and diverse guitarist. Played with David Lee Roth, Marilyn Manson, and Rob Zombie and is currently playing with Motley Crüe. Not necessarily the most advanced music, but check out the Loudwire video where he plays a kids guitar that you might find in a Wal-Mart. He's knows his shit.
Nuno Bettencourt and Mick Mars are the most underrated guitarist of all time and never get the due they deserve.
Agreed !
Micks riffs made me think about how to play guitar
@@infinidominion yup. He's so good. He(the Crue)got me into hard rock music as a kid
Nuno is arguably in a top tier section, which is so much more shameful he's not known
nuno is not underrated. everyone knows him. mic mars bleh
Haha Richie Faulkner…” I will attempt to play it somewhat like Jimi does”- then proceeds to nail it….Richie is a Gem 💎
closest i've ever heard to the original
It was nuts, a part of me thought he just pressed play on the CD. Amazing
Aint talkin bout love was what got me, still one of my favorite riffs
Oh man I remember playing this with the flanger/delay and thinking I was god 🤣
Love Zakk, he's talented and has a great sense of humor.
Zakk is hilarious 😂
Great to see the respect and joy that these guys still have playing even "simple" riffs from the past
AC/DC and Van Halen the GOATs of hard rock
I thought they were people.
+ GnR
Stop the copium
Van Halen sucks
Dio

That Sum 41 fella played the Zep riff like a champ 👊
That song trips so many people up even experienced due to the timing

Jerry Cantrell
John 5 can play guitar
Very underrated. He plays so smooth and effortless 👍
And he's such a cool guy to met!
Can’t take him seriously
@@danadams1661 ok but his skills are very serious
@@danadams1661😂😂😂😂
It was Stranglehold for me. Then Kiss, STYX, REO Speedwagon, Thin Lizzy, Gary Moore & The Carpenters. (for my mom)

Cool seeing Tom Keiffer...
"My number one guitarist was always Jimmy Page. From the band Led Zeppelin."
Thanks for clarifying that 😁

0:06 when Slash straightens his hair and avoids the sun.
thank you
Interesting to hear who these guys admire as guitar players 🤔
I didn’t know Juggalos actually played instruments.
John 5 was just like...i mean he was like...like he was like
This is freaking amazing
Wonderful to see the inspiration behind some of the greatest musicians alive today 🎶
AWWSOME
What’s the riff from the KISS song?
The riff is from Detroit Rock City
Rock on dudes
Ace Frehleys riff on Watchin You, is flat out nasty, such a cool riff.

No one said "the Beatles" ...I'm old
It's not you, they are too young to understand where the influense came from for their heroes.
That intro got me to.
Smoke on the water was my first riff learnage.
When I learned Black Dog I felt invincible.
That sunshine of your love rendition was...something lol
Not sure what, but it was.
Jimmy Page likes his own work so well he plays himself in a Zepplin tribute band . True story
Doc Coyle represents me!
and then SRV could play anyone - better than they could themselves....maybe even including Jimi
I really want to introduce Doc Coyle to Killing Joke's 1985 song Eighties.
Doc Coyle from GodForbid I think
Don’t forget ozzy

An i cant even play. Was years back n great.
You misspelled THE FIRST RIFF into the title
You never need to say "of the bang Led Zeppelin". If you do get new friends.
What is the name of the first riff???
It sounds like "You Really Got Me". Which was originally a Kinks song, but I guess the Van Halen version became iconic in its own right.
@@Gordanovich02 it is indeed "You really got me" my man
As soon as someone says Ace “Free-Lee,” they can be instantly dismissed.
I think Tom Keifer got Danzig and Cream mixed up lol
Hard Rock, where is QUO'S 4500 times for fuck sake.
PAY RESPECT TO YOUR FORE-FATHERS!!!! 😎
I wrote the most iconic riff of all time, but I'm sharing it with no one!
greatest song in the world -tenacious
😂🤣 😳
Sunshine of your love, really?…. Did he play it in A and played wrongly
Now how about a video with some guitarist worth watching other than Zakk.

Eddie never had that button
Dat earing is taken for the mosquitoes machine?
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Yeah right Ellis, as if you could't play Eruption right now 😂
lmfao
Geesh when you gonna light those mosquito coils?
That's a wig
Which one? I think I spotted a couple.
Petrucci’s beard😂
John 5 made Manson band sound awesome. Now they sound like crap live
Affect and effect not fucking "impact".
Never heard of most of these people.
Curious to know which ones. There are a lot of modern day legends on here
Got to give them a listen
Same here
Which people?The ones playing or the ones they mention?
What has John 5 ever written...same with Phil X...nada. Playing isn't about playing, it's about creating
Dude, shut up. Jesus Christ. He’s talking about who got him into guitar and you’re over there sitting in your underwear in your mom’s basement acting like you know what you’re talking about.

I have all of John 5’s solo albums and they are nuts, so eclectic
Phil X I think wrote some music for some of Kelly Clarkson’s hits
I hate Zepplin
I can't stand John 5..
He thinks he's so cool. He's a total hack
If Randy Rhoads didn’t die so young you wouldn’t be talking about half of these guitarist.
Paranoid by Black Sabbath.
*Squiggles* you are *cringe personified*
Delete back street boys from music history. It's only Rock and roll what inspire genius
John 5? Who?

Not necessarily the most advanced music, but check out the Loudwire video where he plays a kids guitar that you might find in a Wal-Mart. He's knows his shit.
Dude is trolling.And jealous.
"I'll attempt to play it just like Jimmy Hendrix"
....sounds like my drunk nan trying to play
1st
Just Fkm Amazing 🤘🤘
dude just give up the hair.
