    As promised, after the last lesson (Rainbow in the Dark), I decided to do a much easier solo for you. Great White lead guitar player, Mark Kendall, was definitely a child of '60s/'70s rock influences (never considered a "shredder" like many of his popular peers in the '80s), and you could hear those influences in his predominantly pentatonic based guitar solos. 😎🎸

      Mark Kendall is one of my favorite guitarists of the era. I got a chance to hang out with him in '84 after GW opened for Judas Priest. Great lesson thanks 🤘🎸👍

      Hey Dave, thanks again!!! I sometimes wonder what my guitar progress would have been like had this stuff existed when I was a teen in the '80s. So much stuff for free now, it's wild. :)

    Short but sweet. Great tune. 👍
    I still have the cassette tape. Classic. I'l never forget years ago they were doing a gig in a small venue in Rhode Island N.Y. with pyrotechnics. They ended up burning the place down along with that people got hurt and died. Sad but true. Anyway ROCK ON 🎸

      @StealthParrot 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I remember that too ... unfortunately. That is one of those awful things that you can't unsee. Tragic moment in the bands career. But they were and still are a terrific band with a ton of great tunes.

    I've always loved Great White and felt that like XYZ they don't really get the recognition that they deserve. Move It has one of my all time favorite solos. It's fun to listen to and fun to play even if it isn't terribly difficult or complex.

    • @PDXguitarfreak
      @PDXguitarfreak  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree both are great bands. I always thought Great White were all about the songs, and didn't care about shredding guitars.... and many there were so many great songs!
