JACK, try to make a Dickey Betts top 10 repeating motif licks he does often, the repeating motif note groupings patterns he uses to make a lesson about them. Watch a lot of live concerts of Dickey Betts and the great southerns concerts and albums also to find these repeating motif patterns he uses often
The fact that Dickey Betts & Duane Allman existed in the same band is pretty insane. Thanks for this awesome lesson Jack! Exactly what I needed right now.
I saw the Allman Brothers twice before Duane Allman left us. I saw the majority of the major guitar players during the late sixties and seventies. Duane Allman was by the superior player but Mr Betts was an incredible addition. That band was incredible.
Tastefully done, Jack. The Alman Brothers were a fertile ground for so many others to grow from. They inspired, master-classed and innovated whilst they entertained and gave so much to their audiences. Dicky Betts - there will be no other. Great job as always, Jack. We're glad you're here. 😊
To me Dickey Betts was the ABB sound no matter who was the lead guitarist and Dickey was also lead. The same can be said about Gary Rossington was the Skynyrd sound. I never knew the reason why Dickey left and I have seen ABB live so many times I can't even count them all. One thing I noticed? HIs missing sound. He will be missed for sure. I loved how Dickey played Southbound not mentioned as much as his other classics.
Hey Jack, thanks for shining the light on Dickey’s greatness. He’s also my favorite guitarist in the Allman Brothers history. Great Woods live DVD is Dickey on fire.
Thanks, Jack. Dicky was my hero. Why? I went to high school in downtown Atlanta (69-73), and the whole band would often play at Piedmont Park. I fell in love with his guitar work then. It always sounded happy and kinda reminded me of Linus from the Peanuts cartoon. It just made me wanna dance! When I improvise these days, I often follow his direction with his scale and repeating (but slightly different) riffs. I didn't realize how much I did it until watching this video. I'll miss his music! I didn't know him personally, wish I did. I guess I should've approached him way back when. Thanks again, Jack! Glad you're taking up the mantle to teach his techniques.
Thanks Jack…. That was a fantastic lesson…. Dickey really put 10 years of Southern Rock on the map…. Which really evolved into Modern Country.. Duane was a Blues Cat… Dickey was Country Blues and Swing…. Some incredible music..
Jack as an old guy that has loved guitar my whole life, (not very good at it) you are am Awesome relaxed knowledgeable teacher. I was fortunate to see Lenny Breau dozens of times back in the day.❤
Thanks for doing this. I’ve always been a big Allman Bros fan, and Live at Fillmore East is one of the greatest live albums ever recorded-so much inspiration there. Dickey also happened to be from my hometown.
Amazing, another inspirational session. I love that horizontal move for the major pentatonic. An easy way to separate them from the minor pentatonic, this will help me to not mix them up. Also love that single chord backing track, more to practice.
love it. rip db. Dude that red 335 in the lighting that you have when you can see the checking and the curvature of the lam top on it freaking gorgeous.
One of my all time favorite bands. Dickey had some country playing before ABB ... with Duane, their styles together were sonic wonder. Unbelievable how Dickey not only kept the band together but went on to be the only guitar after that tragedy. With all that jazz , blues and gospel and country plus modal rock... I never get bored with their music.
Very nice video as usual with some great soloing ideas using the major pentatonic. Your explanations are always really clear and easy to understand and put into play.
Great tribute Jack! Have loved Dickey’s sound for many years. I purchased your triads course recently. This is such a melodic way of connecting all those triad shapes. Practicing just got so much more fun! Thank you so much!
Thanks Jack, for posting this. I've been waiting for your take on Dickey. I encourage everyone to take a minute and listen to "Sail Away" from Enlighted Rogues. This tune means a lot to me and really encapsulates Dickey's style.
Great vid Jack! Dickey was one of my earliest inspirations when I started playing back in the 70's. My brother gave me the Allman Brothers live at the Fillmore East and I wore that album out learning Dickey's lines. That live version of In Memory of Elizabeth Reed is a tune I still play at gigs today. RIP Dickey. Heaven is rockin' a little sweeter.
1st time ever seeing ABB at their annual Beacon gig, I was expecting that pretty, melodic sound.... To me it was like hearing a bar blues band. I was a little bummed

Great demo and such a sweet tone.
RIP Dicky ❤ I learned so much from that dude. I use his licks all the time. Liz Reed is still my favorite tune 40 years later. Thanks Jack!
BROOOOO how have I not discovered your channel before your playing is INSANE
He's one of the best, for sure! What a touch!
Welcome in the JR fan club!

GOD BLESS RICHARD " DICKEY " BETTS FOREVER - LOVE FROM YOUR PAL , JOE NANIA - - - - A.K.A. HOLLYWOOD JOE
Beautifully explained Jack. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!

addition. That band was incredible.
Great job demonstrating and explaining the essence of his common ideas.
Great stuff. Are you bending up to the 3rd on those bends?
Tastefully done, Jack.
The Alman Brothers were a fertile ground for so many others to grow from. They inspired, master-classed and innovated whilst they entertained and gave so much to their audiences.
Dicky Betts - there will be no other.
Great job as always, Jack. We're glad you're here. 😊
please post this backing track
Dickey's solo on "Jelly Jelly". So sweet! One of the greatest.
Really nice 335

Your lesson is so useful! Thank you a lot ,Jack.

Great woods is some of his finest!
He was such a great guitar player, song writer, and singer. He will be missed. Thank you for the lesson, Jack!
Brilliant style, brilliant breakdown! Thank you, Jack!! That old ES is perfectly matched for these fine tones!!
Briliant, relaxing, educations, thanks! God bles you!
❤️❤️❤️
Very smooth stuff,...loving it,RIP Dickey
So good, Jack. Love the way you breakdown the wayDickey could be melodic and edgy at the same time. Which is genius right? RIP DB… 🔥🎸🔥

fret science over lapping jacks lessons with visuals would be great explainer, especially with arpeggios just sayin'

That background track is more Ain’t Wasting Time than Blue Sky or Jessica. Great vid. RIP Dickey.
I first saw Dickie in 1972 and first listen to the Allman Brothers in 1970 and Dickie remains one of my all-time favorite guitar players
Thanks for doing this. I’ve always been a big Allman Bros fan, and Live at Fillmore East is one of the greatest live albums ever recorded-so much inspiration there. Dickey also happened to be from my hometown.
Excellent description. I’d also note that he phrased in 4s rather than the triplets typically used by blues-based players.
Dickies glass-bell tone … which you’ve got.. sure completes the picture.. Thanks 👍🏼
Those repeating phrases also work great in minor pentatonic, in a heavier rock context 🎸
I absolutely agree with your opinion of the late Dickey Betts have a wonderful day Jack ❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢😢 also today is my friends birthday
Amazing, another inspirational session. I love that horizontal move for the major pentatonic. An easy way to separate them from the minor pentatonic, this will help me to not mix them up. Also love that single chord backing track, more to practice.
Dickey was always my favorite Allman Brothers guitar player. One of the most underrated guitarists ever.
Nice tribute, and great explanation/lesson, thanks Jack.
Thanks for breaking it down into manageable steps Jack. Great sound as always.
Glad it was helpful!
