That is sick! I love Rick's channel. He is so knowable on music. I love music theory so its cool how he breaks down stuff. I need to get his book. Looks like an interesting read.
Rick, just ask Brian May to speak to Gilmour and Page. You gotta get those guys on. In my experience (as a Brit) these guys are not hung up on the fame thing, they're pretty personable, and they respect one another as guitarists. If there's any way you can get Brian May or Andy Summers to tell them about what you do, they're likely to be receptive.
I agree. I have a smaller version of this in Australia, and if I was trying to get someone, I found an acquaintance who told them IT'S ONLY ABOUT THE MUSIC. So many of these guys have been burned by journalists who asked personal questions and did nothing for the interviewee at all.
I go to a Catholic seminary run by Benedictine monks, and we have weekly chant/music classes. I came into class one day and was shocked to see that our monk teacher was showing us your videos! He said he loves how you explain musical theory and critique modern music. Thank you for sharing your gift of musical knowledge with us!
As a music lover, I cannot even begin to tell you how much I thank you for all that you have created here. Thank you, thank you, live long and prosper !
David Gilmour isn't the problem, his management is. I have had dealings with them. I painted a Pink Floyd themed Guitar in 2008, Rick, Roger and Nick all signed it in quick succession but it took another 4 years of negotiation with Gilmours management to make any progress, Paul Loasby is his manager and was described to me by the head of a charity we were working with as 'the rudest man he had ever met'. I get that they probably get lots of requests all the time but as a manager thatis part of the job. Manners cost nothing. As it turned out David did sign the guitar in the end and as such it is the last item all 4 of them ever signed as Rick sadly passed away later in 2008. I still own it fortunately.
Unless people like Gilmour are informed by others how awful their manager is towards the fans and others trying to contact him, then he probably has no clue that this is going on. All he knows is that his manager is doing what he is paid to do and Gilmour has no problem with that aspect of it. This is just a guess on my part and if Gilmour does know how his manager acts then screw him. Maybe rude managers are just a reflection on the artist themselves.
A lot of them are like that ,met jools hollands manager once,boasting away to me for about 15 mins.I told him i was a fan of the show and any chance in the future of a couple of audience tickets .Was told "he couldn't possibly do that" "Thanker" think of a word that rhymes with that.
@@davidlong1786 Maybe they are rude with purpose. Probably that's the way to protect Gilmour from all kinds of requests and give him his time for creativity and peace.
AWESOME interview with David Gilmour. I have never seen him get as emotional as he did in any other interview.. Period.. For a few minutes we had a tiny peak into the head of this most beloved and brilliant musician of our generation. Thank you, Rick and so proud and happy for you to have shared this bit with us.
I don’t want to know stupid things about these legends, which is all talk show hosts will ever do, i want to know about the music that shaped my whole life. You are so much more important for hosting these talks Rick. Never stop!!!!!!!
Rick, you’re channel is absolutely amazing, for me it’s hard to get some things, cause my bad english, but it cant stop me to learning things from you. Keep going!
Gilmour is my #1 inspiration for playing the guitar. My favorite. Would love to see him on your channel. Page, too! Keep trying. Thank you for all that you do!
Rick, I don't know if you know how much we love your channel! We know you know what you're talking about, we appreciate your questions and your hard work and even your rants. We watch you because we appreciate the content you make. You're a joy man. It's great how much you love to teach and how genuinely interested you are in the people you talk with. Keep the great work man!
Agreed, this is like VH1 behind the music at different levels within the music industry, sometimes down to the equipment used (or not used). And it’s ALWAYS an even keeled, factual review/explanation. Love this content.
@@gavintuesday4959totally valid point. It’s also a preference though cuz it’s like choosing Letterman vs Leno vs Kimmel. If ya find one ya like, ya might not even bother watching / exploring the others; which is good and bad in itself.
For sure, the best interviews with musicians on TH-cam. I look forward to meeting some absolutely legends for the first time, and really digging in deep with some of my heroes. Thank you.
That's why I thought he might do a sit down with Rick. He'll be doing tons of interviews for the release and I hoped this channel would be a part of that. Who knows though.
Thank you for sharing not only your in-depth knowledge of music theory and music industry reality with all of us. But thank you also, for bringing high quality and useful interviews with real well known musical heroes. It’s really nice to hear it straight from those who lived and created the works of art we all wish to know. Playing by ear, even well trained ears such as yours, gets the job done. But seeing how the ones who created our beloved favorites actually did/do it themselves is always a treat. The stories being kept strictly to do with the music, as you point out, is also a welcomed change from the mainstream. Thank you for all you do, Rick!
This is what I can’t believe. So of all the musicians you’ve interviewed, none of them know David Gilmour and/or Jimmy Page enough to pick up the phone, call them directly and say, “hey Dave/Jimmy, there’s this guy named Rick trying to get in touch with you for an interview. I did it myself and honestly, it was great. Better than any interview I’ve given. You’d honestly enjoy the experience. Give your publicist a call and tell them to schedule it. You won’t regret it.”
The last thing these guys want to chat about is the business when they get a chance to talk... Nothing fishy at all. I have a friend who's in a major heavy metal band, he likes to discuss fishing and family. Not the business
I don’t know, that might be kind of annoying to them. I really think it’s probably people like Jimmy Page just want to be left alone and out of the limelight.
@@scttbull You seem to be missing the point. Beato doesn't interview them about 'the business'. He interviews them on their music. Musicians who are passionate about their music actually love to talk about it. Not the business, but their music. So it's kind of odd that he's interviewed all these greats but is unable to reach David Gilmour. I don't buy that. That's what's fishy.
TH-cam knows me now. After years of faithfully watching Rick Beato, Otis Gibbs, Michael Palmisano, WAF, Daddy Stovepipe, and others, my musical world has expanded into previously unknown universes of wonderful musicians and people I now follow and listen to. My 70-year-old life has grown musically richer in the last ten years than all the years before, combined. The TH-cam algorithms pretty much get it right with the suggestions thrown my way when I open my funny little electronic device. It’s weird, but it’s beautiful. Above all, I thank Rick Beato for his hard work and incredible sharing!
I couldn't agree more with the statement about how Rick's video's have enriched the music in your life. I used to listen to a little jazz in between the rock I usually listen to. Rick has introduced me to a whole new world of musicians in the jazz world I really didn't know about before. Ron Carter, Jaco and Weather Report and Pat Martino, just to name a few. Prior to watching Rick's videos, my jazz collection was some Coltrane, Pat Metheny and Dave Brubeck's 'Time Out'. Not very wide of a selection.
Dude, you're killing it. Jerry Cantrell and Dweezil Zappa in the last week and a half, Tony Levin, Alan Parsons in the last month??? Who else can do that?
@@AdamGotheridge I watched the whole thing, and I'm not a zappa guy at all. I respect the amazing work he did, and learning about it through Dweezil was super interesting, and he was just great at doing interviews. Sometimes an interview is worth watching just for the quality of the conversation even if you're not necessarily a huge fan. That's what I love about this channel. Even when I'm not a fan of their music, I often become a fan of the person and their skillset and mindset.
@@JimmyNuisanceYou would be a Dweezil guy if you saw him live doing "Zappa does Zappa". All I can say is WOW. He and his band were ASTOUNDING musicians. I was never expecting it to be the fantastic show it was.
Rick, you’re doing a splendid job (as you’ve done with everything you’ve ever pursued), and nothing is going to stop you. The pursuit of excellence will always bring rewards you’d never be able to predict.
A true genius or the emperor's new clothes ? And I've got Ambient I to IV plus a few of the others including Before and after science, Apollo. I'm still not sure if it's actually good.
Just keep on keeping on, Rick. You’re exactly the right guy to be interviewing musicians due to your engaging personality and passion for and incredible knowledge of music. Success hasn’t gone to your head - you’re the same guy you were 8 years ago when you started your channel from what I can tell. Love your work. Huge fan.
I have to say that when my wife and I decide some evenings on what to watch (stream), we sometimes just throw up our hands when we can't find a good movie or series and just say "I'll watch my TH-cam channels".... So much more informative, entertaining and positive. I'd say most evenings it's YT content and maybe 1 or 2 nights with streaming. Haven't watched anything network related in years.... (and don't miss it!)
I usually spend as long trying to find something I consider decent enough to watch on Netflix as it would take to watch a movie. So, yes, I often TH-cam instead. However, I do get a bit frustrated with the algorithm. I might want to watch a few sports highlights, but soon enough, that's the only choice I have, except for the videos that I have spent months not looking at that just keep reappearing day after day, month after month, year after year... for ice ages, in fact. Please, Mr David Gilmour, do an interview with Rick and also with Adam Reader (Professor of Rock) so that we get a full rounded interview.
Yeah, in our house, we gave up on broadcast tv/cable a number of years ago, except to watch an occasional hockey game. For the last three years, we don't even watch the hockey. So no tv/cable at all. I'd say I go to YT 70% of the time and streaming the other 30%. No ads, no schedules, vastly more informative and entertaining, and cheaper than our last mid tier cable company bill.
It's been more than a decade for me. The networks are going the way of the dodo. As they should. Corrupting uselessness never helped anyone. It's such a different world now. Wholesome has bizarrely become a target for ridicule. Depravity is being promoted over anything with substance because of the children of the misanthropes born to absentee parents who's most outstanding traits are apathy, cowardice, and self loathing. The collective soul of humanity is in real trouble.
Rick, you do an awesome job! As a 52 yr old who didn't get to enjoy as much of the classic rock scene as I wished, your channel is my #1 go to for my rock deep dive fix. Thank you for what you do.
I am not a musician but I thoroughly enjoy your channel. From the “what makes this song great”, to the “spotify top 10”, and the interviews … everything is authentic, real, and rich with content. No fluff. No forced laughter. No meaningless “banter” (as one gets on some podcasts). Oh and the sound quality is ace! Well done Mr. Beato. Well done!
You can maybe get to David Gilmour easier if you reach out to Polly Samson instead of his publicist. Also, we definitely need Paul McCartney in here. It would be an interview for the ages.
Perhaps even reach out The Rockonteurs podcast - ie Gary Kemp and Guy Pratt. It was Pratt who replaced Waters in PF and is Gilmour's long time bass player (he's on tour with Gilmour now). For reference, they just recently had Gilmour on their podcast, which has been running for 4+ years. Apparently Guy had been trying for years to have Gilmour on, and he finally said yes in 2024.
A big reason I think TH-cam destroys everything else is because I can pick and choose exactly what I want to watch, when I want to watch it and can exit out anytime I want to. Terrible for mental health but great for a dopamine hit
It also has a wealth of content from people competing with each other forcing them to be better. This is real capitalism in action. Huge mainstream media became a horrible anti-competitive monopoly long ago. That's why it has no chance and is getting whipped. Rick here is an extremely talented person. Most people in Hollywood are not.
@@BaronVonMunchTH-cam doesn't practice Capitalism. It's techno-fascism. I don't even think they make a profit but it doesn't matter because Google makes so much money. The rules they set are enforced ambiguously and arbitrarily. They also unsub people and throttle videos that don't fit their narrative.
The in-depth interviews are greatly appreciated (so much so that I listened all the way through this video even though you didn't mention David Gilmour until the last 30 seconds....you managed to keep me interested). My favorite moment this year though, was when you got shut down by the keyboardist for Procol Harum after snarking at him about how one should REALLY play the organ part of Whiter Shade of Pale and then realizing to your horror that you were lecturing the actual songwriter. Internet sensation Rick Beato eating humble pie? Instant classic!
I feel like Ed O’Brien would be the most comfortable out of the Radiohead members to do an interview. Either him or Phil Selway are the 2 best to do an interview
Rick, I love music but I am totally ignorant about the process and nuances of creating/playing. Watching your channel opened up my brain to how amazing is music creation. While I have no interest in creating music, I do enjoy your passion for explaining the process and love learning about how my favorite artists create magic. I'm thankful for that.
I re-watch a lot of your videos. You do great musician interviews because you are a musician. I also enjoy your music lessons. Keep doing what you are doing. God bless you and your family
This the best forum for legendary musicians to talk about music, for the love of music. Rick is an chill guy that's been around the block, and isn't bitter or gossipy. He just loves music.
Goddamn Rick I am blown away by how big your channel has gotten…but not a huge surprise cause your videos are so authentic and amazing. Great work my good man. Incredible work.
Plus his perspective would be interesting because he seems to get along with both Roger and Dave. Plus he was in the band at the beginning, more than we can say for Dave.
wow congrats on a billion views Rick - well deserved. Very Happy for you

Try getting Guy Pratt first. He's not only a terrific bass player with great stories but he is also part of Pink Floyd since the 80s. He is currently touring with Gilmour, by the way.
That's actually the perfect idea. Guy Pratt is well accustomed to TH-cam. I've seen him on some really good interviews. I think he was posting his own content at one point. He definitely has some sort of influence with David Gilmour. And it would be awesome just to listen to him talk to Rick for an hour. Then the next thing you know, David Gilmour is on Rick's channel! 😲
Guy would be such an awesome guest! I was thinking the same thing just last week. Would love to see Rick interview him. Guy was a guest on a music quiz show here in Australia a while back and he’s got such a great sense of humour and is an awesome storyteller
Some artists tell the same stories over and over to all interviewers. Both Paul Simon and Paul McCartney are those types. I wonder if Rick could get them into another way of talking about their music.
You're a great guy and makes a hard work but pleasant for us. So many details covered that we are introduced to and that suddenly jump out at our ears. Thank you so much.
Somebody else in the comments suggested reaching out to Guy Pratt to do an interview. I think that's a fantastic idea. That right there would be the gateway to connecting with David Gilmore. Please consider it Rick. And Guy Pratt would be an amazing interview also in itself. He seems like a pretty tech-savvy guy who already has a presence on TH-cam. Go for it!
You have a great Channel. I'm a band teacher in Alaska and I recommend your channel to my advanced students... Now that I think about it. I'll start recommending it to all my students. Keep up the good work.
FABULOUS idea! Tom Scholz's contribution to rock music in general, to rock guitar, to rock songwriting, and to rock music production renders him as important to the genre as Hendrix, The Beatles and Van Halen. Scholz is a genuine inventor in the mode of Edison and Graham Bell; a veritable genius. His inventions and inventiveness singlehandedly changed the face of rock music, and his influence remains as strong today as it was nearly a half century ago. Bring him on.
Have you done :- Just a suggestion Brian Ferry or Brian Eno ? Roxy not the biggest band in the world : but avant-garde for their time. Eno being an early electronic music wallah.
Rick, thank you SO MUCH for your work here! You don't know how much you help me, from practicing my english (I'm a brazilian subscriber) to understanding more of music and having the oportunity to listen directly from a LOT of my favorite musicians somo of their secrets. That's amazing! Thank you SO MUCH!
Rick, you bring up the Sting interview, and it raises an excellent point. That video ended up in my mentions, probably because I had been watching 80s videos on TH-cam recently, and I gave it a watch. I think I had encountered a few other of your videos in my recommendations, and may have even watched a few of the videos about Spotify Top 10s. And from the Sting interview I was led to the Brian May interview, and those two interviews hooked me in. Artists like Page and Gilmour, greats whose publicists aren't directing them to social media outlets such as your channel, are done a great disservice, because someone with your background is going to give a much better conversation than someone with only a superficial understanding of music and production. Keep doing what you are doing, and hopefully soon, before we lose some of these legends, you'll get the opportunity to do these interviews.
Such a true statement. I have learned from this channel more than my ex=teachers (no offense). I teach now and still point my students to a lot of Rick's videos (for more education).
Rick, I don't know you, I have nothing invested in you. But your interviews are interesting. I learn a bit more about music and the musicians I enjoy. Even when you talk way over my head I enjoy what you're saying. You're a communicator, and that's a fact.
Those mainstream media guys are just fake people reading lines their staff wrote. You're a real person with genuine talent and passion. I love your channel and have turned many friends on to it who all love it as well. You've earned our loyalty Rick! ❤
I think you're amazing as an interviewer and should get the chance to talk and discuss with the best and biggest musician as Gilmour and Page. I learned to hear some of my favorite artists and albums in a different special way. So I thank you for being so special.
@@attunementtarot Yes, David Byrne is a legend and Rick would bring out the best in him by his music- and production-focused style (versus personal stuff and chit chat, which, as a person on the Spectrum is not DB's comfort zone).
I love the content you put out on your channel. From your in-depth knowledge of music theory, demoing your multi instrumentalist chops, to what makes a song great, to the music interviews and everything in between.., love it all. Keep up the good work!
Love your channel Rick. We have some really great musicians, guitarists and producers downunda here in Australia. Would be great to see you do an interview with Angus Young (ACDC) or Johnny Diesel for example. 🎸
Would love to have you interview Tom Scholz. Many of us know his story, but I know you would get more out of him from a music perspective. The guy is literally a genius and unafraid at that. Van Halen was a genius without the degree from M.I.T. They both tinkered and chased tone. Amazing.
We can all do ourselves and Rick Beato a favor by reaching out to these musicians and building bridges while they are still alive, and requesting their interview with Rick, and letting them know about the "Beato Bump", which is a mini-revival of their music after their interview with Rick. This channel has become so important in preserving the memories and lessons of an era of musicians that will be gone soon.
Hang in there Rick.. Paul McCartny , David Gilmor, Mick Jagger and all these legends of music they will come around. They don’t need the money or the publicity , but will want to leave their story. Just keep doing interviews
OMG, that would be awesome. If you would permit me to make a suggestion, you could try to get a producer or engineer on the various sessions and have that person comment on how they tried to capture and complement the unbelievable and wonderful drumming of Professor Peart, may he RIP.
Just saw the Gilmour interview Rick. Very good. Clapton, Page, Blackmore would be greatly appreciated. And in a few years time, The Accidental Troubadour ;) But I have a loooong way to go still. Blessings to the family Rick!
Your interview's with both Maynard and Danny were great... is there any chance of closing the loop in the future with Justin and Adam? 🤷♂️ If anyone can get an interview with Adam, its you Rick! Give this this a thumbs up if you agree 😎👍🤘
I'm 65 years old, and your interviews are so in depth and very entertaining. I just watched your interview with Alan Parsons and learned so much I was blown away. My son records, plays, and loves these kind of technical discussions and he loved it. Keep trying, maybe more will realize that they can go into an interview and talk all about music, and only music. Fascinating. Keep it up. Oh, I play violin and am classically trained so no matter if you just like to listen or play any instrument these videos are great.
*FunFact:* Brian May watches your channel.
A LARGE number of your guests are actually fans of YOUR channel BECAUSE of YOUR genuine love of music. 😊
@OtherMike5000 Is that you Mr May?
The beard suits you.
That is sick! I love Rick's channel. He is so knowable on music. I love music theory so its cool how he breaks down stuff. I need to get his book. Looks like an interesting read.
Get Brian May to contact Gilmore
I wish David Gilmour would come back and do an interview. I understand though 😊
Ugh I wish
Well this aged poorly 😂
came here to say this!
😅
Beat me by 🤏 much!!!
Exactly 😂
Do you know where I can watch the interview?
Rick, just ask Brian May to speak to Gilmour and Page. You gotta get those guys on. In my experience (as a Brit) these guys are not hung up on the fame thing, they're pretty personable, and they respect one another as guitarists. If there's any way you can get Brian May or Andy Summers to tell them about what you do, they're likely to be receptive.
Excellent points
Not a bad idea at all.

Guy with all the answers huh?😂
Great idea. Add Sting to the list, too.
Funny thing is that I saw this video right after the announcement that your David Gilmour interview is coming soon.
Rick lied to us, cant wait though🎸
Hahahahaha. Same thing with me.
Same!!!
Same…
He must have knew David was coming on

YOU DID IT!!!! My greatest admiration
David Gilmour isn't the problem, his management is. I have had dealings with them. I painted a Pink Floyd themed Guitar in 2008, Rick, Roger and Nick all signed it in quick succession but it took another 4 years of negotiation with Gilmours management to make any progress, Paul Loasby is his manager and was described to me by the head of a charity we were working with as 'the rudest man he had ever met'.

Man, the fact your interviews get more views than traditional TV interviews that go up is so badass. Super proud of you 🤘🏼✨💛
Please interview Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, together, I'm sure it would be a hoot!
Yes!
Indeed, it would be great.
This would be great!
And they show up on lots of YT channels, so I bet they'd be down.
That would be awesome

Wholesome to know people still care about depth in conversation
Or in-depth conversation. (Not criticizing your comment. I agree with it. It's just what my brain was expected to read. And it would work.)
I don’t want to know stupid things about these legends, which is all talk show hosts will ever do, i want to know about the music that shaped my whole life. You are so much more important for hosting these talks Rick. Never stop!!!!!!!
Most TV shows, magazines, etc. interview people because they are celebrities. Rick interviews them because they are artists.
@AB-ib8dm 👍 and also because Rick absolutely loves music and really cares about it too ☝️🤎🙏
TV pays them.
Perfectly said! 😊
It's called "The dumbing down of the masses". Their tactics are speeding Up, too.
We appreciate you Rick! You are keeping music culture & history & education ALIVE!! Thank You!
So happy you will be showing your David Gilmour interview soon!!! YAY and thank you!!

Молодец
Gilmour is my #1 inspiration for playing the guitar. My favorite. Would love to see him on your channel. Page, too! Keep trying. Thank you for all that you do!
Just saw a short with him and Rick, Ricks most recent short as of today, ( I'm here looking for the full video), so that means it's coming!
Rick this video is awesome and I love how you present these videos so professionally but perform them so casually and straight forward.
Rick, I don't know if you know how much we love your channel! We know you know what you're talking about, we appreciate your questions and your hard work and even your rants. We watch you because we appreciate the content you make. You're a joy man. It's great how much you love to teach and how genuinely interested you are in the people you talk with. Keep the great work man!
You are becoming one of the most important documentation efforts of music making in the whole world wide history of music making.
I fear the time when Google goes "Hmm, TH-cam is not profitable anymore. Let's pull the plug and delete all content".
Quite the hyperbole there . Jeez. He’s good but he’s not the only TH-cam content producer to do this stuff , neither the first or last
don't you mean "english speaking world?"
Agreed, this is like VH1 behind the music at different levels within the music industry, sometimes down to the equipment used (or not used). And it’s ALWAYS an even keeled, factual review/explanation. Love this content.
@@gavintuesday4959totally valid point. It’s also a preference though cuz it’s like choosing Letterman vs Leno vs Kimmel. If ya find one ya like, ya might not even bother watching / exploring the others; which is good and bad in itself.
Rick, maybe Tony Iommi. I'm sure he has many interesting stories to tell. He and May are close friends...
OMG.. yesss
Tony is "THE MAN"
Probably the last guy who would ever interview
And he was friends with EVH.
Would love to hear Iomi talk about his time with Jethro Thull...
And Bingo, a David Gilmour video has materialized.
Awesome stuff.
Geddy and Alex from Rush are a MUST but I would also love to hear an interview with Rush's producer from 1975-1982, Terry Brown, as well.
Agree. Besides Ged and Al, an interview with Terry Brown would probably be really cool to watch (at least for Rush fans)
Alex saw this video. His reaction? "BLAH BLAH BLAH".
@@mikeblaszczak5346 maybe Rick is afraid that if he has Alex on, that’s all he’ll say. 😂
Totally support it!! UP!
I want to see this interview. Geddy Lee AND Alex Lifeson. That is awesome.
For sure, the best interviews with musicians on TH-cam. I look forward to meeting some absolutely legends for the first time, and really digging in deep with some of my heroes. Thank you.
Rick you are the best. Every time I watch you I learn more about the music I grew up with and love. One thing that you have for your craft is PASSION!
I just watched a short of you and David Gilmour and everyone's reaction was electric! Shine on brother
I just saw that !
Gilmour has a new album out, good chance to get him for an interview.
That's why I thought he might do a sit down with Rick. He'll be doing tons of interviews for the release and I hoped this channel would be a part of that.
Who knows though.
He's gonna be in the states in the near future
It’ll be way easier for Rick to fly to UK, giving him/us the chance of a Gilmore interview.
i think the way to Gilmour might be through the Rockonteurs podcast
Yeah, him and his daughter have some TH-cam presence. Not sure how much direct involvement they have with that, of course.
Thank you for sharing not only your in-depth knowledge of music theory and music industry reality with all of us. But thank you also, for bringing high quality and useful interviews with real well known musical heroes. It’s really nice to hear it straight from those who lived and created the works of art we all wish to know. Playing by ear, even well trained ears such as yours, gets the job done. But seeing how the ones who created our beloved favorites actually did/do it themselves is always a treat. The stories being kept strictly to do with the music, as you point out, is also a welcomed change from the mainstream. Thank you for all you do, Rick!
This is what I can’t believe. So of all the musicians you’ve interviewed, none of them know David Gilmour and/or Jimmy Page enough to pick up the phone, call them directly and say, “hey Dave/Jimmy, there’s this guy named Rick trying to get in touch with you for an interview. I did it myself and honestly, it was great. Better than any interview I’ve given. You’d honestly enjoy the experience. Give your publicist a call and tell them to schedule it. You won’t regret it.”
Yeah true. Something fishy here.
The last thing these guys want to chat about is the business when they get a chance to talk... Nothing fishy at all. I have a friend who's in a major heavy metal band, he likes to discuss fishing and family. Not the business
I don’t know, that might be kind of annoying to them. I really think it’s probably people like Jimmy Page just want to be left alone and out of the limelight.
@@scttbull You seem to be missing the point. Beato doesn't interview them about 'the business'. He interviews them on their music. Musicians who are passionate about their music actually love to talk about it. Not the business, but their music. So it's kind of odd that he's interviewed all these greats but is unable to reach David Gilmour. I don't buy that. That's what's fishy.
@@genustinca5565 Who manages the PR? Then you’ll see why.
This didn't age well. 🤣 Congrats on getting David on the channel!
Reaching the end and realizing the whole thing was Rick cleverly wrapping his résumé and addressing it to David Gilmour and co.
With all the subtlety of a brick
Subtly and Diplomatically wrapping his resume😆
Hopefully, Cocomelon can get David Gilmour on - that'd be cool.
TH-cam knows me now. After years of faithfully watching Rick Beato, Otis Gibbs, Michael Palmisano, WAF, Daddy Stovepipe, and others, my musical world has expanded into previously unknown universes of wonderful musicians and people I now follow and listen to. My 70-year-old life has grown musically richer in the last ten years than all the years before, combined. The TH-cam algorithms pretty much get it right with the suggestions thrown my way when I open my funny little electronic device. It’s weird, but it’s beautiful.
Above all, I thank Rick Beato for his hard work and incredible sharing!
This is what the internet should be about, learning and enrichment.
I couldn't agree more with the statement about how Rick's video's have enriched the music in your life. I used to listen to a little jazz in between the rock I usually listen to. Rick has introduced me to a whole new world of musicians in the jazz world I really didn't know about before. Ron Carter, Jaco and Weather Report and Pat Martino, just to name a few. Prior to watching Rick's videos, my jazz collection was some Coltrane, Pat Metheny and Dave Brubeck's 'Time Out'. Not very wide of a selection.
@@markoer Right on!
Google own and run TH-cam, they're very good at their algorithms and showing you content related to what you've watched in the past.
Dude, you're killing it. Jerry Cantrell and Dweezil Zappa in the last week and a half, Tony Levin, Alan Parsons in the last month??? Who else can do that?
Josh Freese, and Tom Bukovac.....plus all 3 of the Police as well.
The Dweezil thing blew me away.
@@AdamGotheridge I watched the whole thing, and I'm not a zappa guy at all. I respect the amazing work he did, and learning about it through Dweezil was super interesting, and he was just great at doing interviews.
Sometimes an interview is worth watching just for the quality of the conversation even if you're not necessarily a huge fan. That's what I love about this channel. Even when I'm not a fan of their music, I often become a fan of the person and their skillset and mindset.
@@JimmyNuisanceYou would be a Dweezil guy if you saw him live doing "Zappa does Zappa". All I can say is WOW. He and his band were ASTOUNDING musicians. I was never expecting it to be the fantastic show it was.
Rick, you’re doing a splendid job (as you’ve done with everything you’ve ever pursued), and nothing is going to stop you. The pursuit of excellence will always bring rewards you’d never be able to predict.
Brian Eno would be good.
the best, i think
A true genius of our time.
An Interview with Eno probably would take about 6 hours ❤
A true genius or the emperor's new clothes ? And I've got Ambient I to IV plus a few of the others including Before and after science, Apollo. I'm still not sure if it's actually good.
@@simonruddle5537 It is still good. It's you.
Just keep on keeping on, Rick. You’re exactly the right guy to be interviewing musicians due to your engaging personality and passion for and incredible knowledge of music. Success hasn’t gone to your head - you’re the same guy you were 8 years ago when you started your channel from what I can tell. Love your work. Huge fan.
I have to say that when my wife and I decide some evenings on what to watch (stream), we sometimes just throw up our hands when we can't find a good movie or series and just say "I'll watch my TH-cam channels".... So much more informative, entertaining and positive. I'd say most evenings it's YT content and maybe 1 or 2 nights with streaming. Haven't watched anything network related in years.... (and don't miss it!)
I am right there with you!
TH-cam is AT LEAST 90% of what we watch. SEC football and sumo on cable, and next to nothing on broadcast.
I usually spend as long trying to find something I consider decent enough to watch on Netflix as it would take to watch a movie. So, yes, I often TH-cam instead. However, I do get a bit frustrated with the algorithm. I might want to watch a few sports highlights, but soon enough, that's the only choice I have, except for the videos that I have spent months not looking at that just keep reappearing day after day, month after month, year after year... for ice ages, in fact.
Please, Mr David Gilmour, do an interview with Rick and also with Adam Reader (Professor of Rock) so that we get a full rounded interview.
Yeah, in our house, we gave up on broadcast tv/cable a number of years ago, except to watch an occasional hockey game. For the last three years, we don't even watch the hockey. So no tv/cable at all. I'd say I go to YT 70% of the time and streaming the other 30%. No ads, no schedules, vastly more informative and entertaining, and cheaper than our last mid tier cable company bill.
It's been more than a decade for me. The networks are going the way of the dodo. As they should. Corrupting uselessness never helped anyone. It's such a different world now. Wholesome has bizarrely become a target for ridicule.
Depravity is being promoted over anything with substance because of the children of the misanthropes born to absentee parents who's most outstanding traits are apathy, cowardice, and self loathing. The collective soul of humanity is in real trouble.
Rick, you do an awesome job! As a 52 yr old who didn't get to enjoy as much of the classic rock scene as I wished, your channel is my #1 go to for my rock deep dive fix. Thank you for what you do.
I am not a musician but I thoroughly enjoy your channel. From the “what makes this song great”, to the “spotify top 10”, and the interviews … everything is authentic, real, and rich with content. No fluff. No forced laughter. No meaningless “banter” (as one gets on some podcasts). Oh and the sound quality is ace! Well done Mr. Beato. Well done!
Your doing all you can to get Gilmore and Page on so glad you had Brian May ❤ from Australia 🇦🇺
Channels I follow come and go, yours I find myself following consistently over time. Why, for exactly the reasons you say. For that I thank you !
You can maybe get to David Gilmour easier if you reach out to Polly Samson instead of his publicist.
Also, we definitely need Paul McCartney in here. It would be an interview for the ages.
Better hurry; father time is the greatest competitor at this point.
Why would you want to?
@@stevefrank8172 Why not?
Perhaps even reach out The Rockonteurs podcast - ie Gary Kemp and Guy Pratt. It was Pratt who replaced Waters in PF and is Gilmour's long time bass player (he's on tour with Gilmour now). For reference, they just recently had Gilmour on their podcast, which has been running for 4+ years. Apparently Guy had been trying for years to have Gilmour on, and he finally said yes in 2024.
@@TheUnforgettableBuzz Good idea!
You are a musician, a lover of music, a technician, a psychologist... I LOVE your work. Thank you.
A big reason I think TH-cam destroys everything else is because I can pick and choose exactly what I want to watch, when I want to watch it and can exit out anytime I want to. Terrible for mental health but great for a dopamine hit
You nailed it ! 👍
It also has a wealth of content from people competing with each other forcing them to be better. This is real capitalism in action. Huge mainstream media became a horrible anti-competitive monopoly long ago. That's why it has no chance and is getting whipped. Rick here is an extremely talented person. Most people in Hollywood are not.
@@BaronVonMunchTH-cam doesn't practice Capitalism. It's techno-fascism. I don't even think they make a profit but it doesn't matter because Google makes so much money. The rules they set are enforced ambiguously and arbitrarily. They also unsub people and throttle videos that don't fit their narrative.
Exactly! Right before this video I was watching an old video showing Norwegian traditional basket weaving. No lie!
Why should that be bad for mental health ?
Please interview Robert Fripp 🙏🏻
Steve Howe and Steve Hackett (separately, of course) would wrap up a nice group of prog guitarist interviews. 😎
John Petrucci please.
Yes! Put Robert Fripp on top of the list! Such an interesting man.
One of the most interesting videos I’ve ever seen 👍
Fripp: the greatest musician composer of his time
In my humble opinion the greatest guitarist ever
Robert Smith would be amazing
Up!!!!! That would be awesome!!!
Yes!!!! Would be awesome!!!!
Yes. The new song is great. I would love to see you pick his brain and talk about the new album.
Please make it happen Rick!
Holy crap! I was just thinking this as I was scrolling down the comments! Hell yeah!
The in-depth interviews are greatly appreciated (so much so that I listened all the way through this video even though you didn't mention David Gilmour until the last 30 seconds....you managed to keep me interested).
My favorite moment this year though, was when you got shut down by the keyboardist for Procol Harum after snarking at him about how one should REALLY play the organ part of Whiter Shade of Pale and then realizing to your horror that you were lecturing the actual songwriter. Internet sensation Rick Beato eating humble pie? Instant classic!
Hey Rick I was wondering could you get Thom Yorke or Jonny Greenwood to do an interview?
Damn how I would love that
I would love that too.
ı really want this
Now we're talking!!
I feel like Ed O’Brien would be the most comfortable out of the Radiohead members to do an interview. Either him or Phil Selway are the 2 best to do an interview
Alex Van Halen has a book coming out in October. That would be an amazing interview!
I bet Wolfgang would be a good interview.Very talented.
@@kerrypotenza1679 Wasnt Wolf already on the channel? Maybe I am thinking of a different channel? Maybe Stern.
Mammoth WVH is awesome. Wolfgang interview would be great.
Yes please!!!
Oh man I’d love that
You're doing incredible job!! Simply amazing!!
Hey Tomo! I love your videos too!!
Tomo I love and admire you!
Rick, I love music but I am totally ignorant about the process and nuances of creating/playing. Watching your channel opened up my brain to how amazing is music creation. While I have no interest in creating music, I do enjoy your passion for explaining the process and love learning about how my favorite artists create magic. I'm thankful for that.
Woah The Legend Himself!
I just watched your David Gilmour interview, now I can say that this video achieved its goal. Congratulations!
5:52 The answer to the video title.
Thank you!
He doesn't half moan.
Thank you. Rick loves making long videos that say nothing.
@@sashacalder He actually took down one of my comments, cos I told him to stop moaning.
@@katoness maybe you net people should write online as though you're sitting with Rick with a coffee or a beer.
Never Mind Rick, what you have made is something of real value, because you love music and we can see it. Kudos
I re-watch a lot of your videos. You do great musician interviews because you are a musician. I also enjoy your music lessons. Keep doing what you are doing. God bless you and your family
This the best forum for legendary musicians to talk about music, for the love of music. Rick is an chill guy that's been around the block, and isn't bitter or gossipy. He just loves music.
Goddamn Rick I am blown away by how big your channel has gotten…but not a huge surprise cause your videos are so authentic and amazing. Great work my good man. Incredible work.
Regardless of whether you can get Gilmour, Page, etc. you still have a great channel going. It appears that A LOT of us like it!
Get Nick Mason first, an interview with him would be great in itself!
Plus his perspective would be interesting because he seems to get along with both Roger and Dave. Plus he was in the band at the beginning, more than we can say for Dave.
Yes! Plus he is so much more fun and enjoyable to talk to.
Yes Nick comes across as a top bloke in what I've seen and he's "in the middle" of the things
The only guy who's played on every Pink Floyd album. That would be amazing!
Totally agree!! Excellent suggestion!
wow congrats on a billion views Rick - well deserved. Very Happy for you
Try getting Guy Pratt first. He's not only a terrific bass player with great stories but he is also part of Pink Floyd since the 80s. He is currently touring with Gilmour, by the way.
That's actually the perfect idea.
Guy Pratt is well accustomed to TH-cam. I've seen him on some really good interviews. I think he was posting his own content at one point. He definitely has some sort of influence with David Gilmour.
And it would be awesome just to listen to him talk to Rick for an hour.
Then the next thing you know, David Gilmour is on Rick's channel! 😲
Great idea. Guy recently interviewed David Gilmour on his Rockonteurs podcast, and it’s on TH-cam!
Guy would be such an awesome guest! I was thinking the same thing just last week. Would love to see Rick interview him. Guy was a guest on a music quiz show here in Australia a while back and he’s got such a great sense of humour and is an awesome storyteller
True! It'll serve as a bridge to getting Gilmour on.
Icehouse 😀
My wish list:Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, Mark Knopfler and Donald Fagen.
Keep going, Rick!
Geddy would be amazing!
Oh God, yes!!
Man, I'll sure second that wish list! Those episodes would be awesome.
Nice list!!!
and a video about neil's drumming!
Any chance of getting Paul Simon on? I love seeing him talk about crafting a song.
There's an artist! Good call.
Start the reunion between Paul and Art.
@@kevinlupien9520 about as likely as Gilmour and Waters reunion
Pinch stuff from classical music?
Some artists tell the same stories over and over to all interviewers. Both Paul Simon and Paul McCartney are those types. I wonder if Rick could get them into another way of talking about their music.
You're a great guy and makes a hard work but pleasant for us. So many details covered that we are introduced to and that suddenly jump out at our ears. Thank you so much.
Somebody else in the comments suggested reaching out to Guy Pratt to do an interview.
I think that's a fantastic idea. That right there would be the gateway to connecting with David Gilmore.
Please consider it Rick. And Guy Pratt would be an amazing interview also in itself. He seems like a pretty tech-savvy guy who already has a presence on TH-cam. Go for it!
I mean David Gilmour gets interviewed in magazines. He’s in the latest issue of Mojo. Why not just read for a change
@@ontheturningaway Because we are the pale and downtrodden
Great idea!
Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson. You are just as qualified to interview these guys. Chris Shiflett launched his show with Alex.
Actually yes, as far as I know, Geddy has his media
I second that! Totally!
Todd Rundgren
Tom Sholz
Randy Bachman
Bob Seger
Steven Tyler
John Fogerty
Mark Farner
These people must actually want to be interviewed by Rick. Not everyone is sitting around waiting for Rick to call them.
Tom Scholz would be an EXCELLENT interview for Rick!
Bob Seger would be great. He's got quite the catalog that others have also used.
Daryl Hall
Greg Hawkes is one I'd love to see, amazing musician
You have a great Channel. I'm a band teacher in Alaska and I recommend your channel to my advanced students... Now that I think about it. I'll start recommending it to all my students. Keep up the good work.
I hope someday you may interview Tom Scholz... a must in this bucket list.
yes i want to see that also
I've been waiting for this for A Long Time.
@@mschmidtTX I've got more than a feeling, we'll get some piece of mind. Don't look back though, it's all about the journey.
FABULOUS idea! Tom Scholz's contribution to rock music in general, to rock guitar, to rock songwriting, and to rock music production renders him as important to the genre as Hendrix, The Beatles and Van Halen. Scholz is a genuine inventor in the mode of Edison and Graham Bell; a veritable genius. His inventions and inventiveness singlehandedly changed the face of rock music, and his influence remains as strong today as it was nearly a half century ago. Bring him on.
Beato tried to reach Tom Scholz for interview… without success. Tom avoids interviews.
Have you done :- Just a suggestion
Brian Ferry or Brian Eno ?
Roxy not the biggest band in the world : but avant-garde for their time.
Eno being an early electronic music wallah.
I was a huge fan of Eno back in the day, but haven't kept up with him in recent years
Brian Eno would be a fantastic interview. Definitely a pioneer and innovator in so many ways
Keep trying for David Gilmour -- he's quite familiar with TH-cam -- his Von Trapped Series was a Covid-era TH-cam highlight
Absolutely! Surprised the heck out of me when I saw it, it was super cool.
Rick, thank you SO MUCH for your work here! You don't know how much you help me, from practicing my english (I'm a brazilian subscriber) to understanding more of music and having the oportunity to listen directly from a LOT of my favorite musicians somo of their secrets. That's amazing! Thank you SO MUCH!
Rick, you bring up the Sting interview, and it raises an excellent point. That video ended up in my mentions, probably because I had been watching 80s videos on TH-cam recently, and I gave it a watch. I think I had encountered a few other of your videos in my recommendations, and may have even watched a few of the videos about Spotify Top 10s. And from the Sting interview I was led to the Brian May interview, and those two interviews hooked me in. Artists like Page and Gilmour, greats whose publicists aren't directing them to social media outlets such as your channel, are done a great disservice, because someone with your background is going to give a much better conversation than someone with only a superficial understanding of music and production. Keep doing what you are doing, and hopefully soon, before we lose some of these legends, you'll get the opportunity to do these interviews.
Your channel deserves all the credit because you're doing the important work our schools have abandoned: music education.
Such a true statement. I have learned from this channel more than my ex=teachers (no offense). I teach now and still point my students to a lot of Rick's videos (for more education).
Rick, I don't know you, I have nothing invested in you. But your interviews are interesting. I learn a bit more about music and the musicians I enjoy. Even when you talk way over my head I enjoy what you're saying. You're a communicator, and that's a fact.
I think you’re interviews are great! I learn so much and find your guests super interesting. The people you can’t get to are missing out!
Those mainstream media guys are just fake people reading lines their staff wrote. You're a real person with genuine talent and passion. I love your channel and have turned many friends on to it who all love it as well. You've earned our loyalty Rick! ❤
The legacy media is over, people are turning to things like TH-cam & independent people. Great to see.
I think you're amazing as an interviewer and should get the chance to talk and discuss with the best and biggest musician as Gilmour and Page.
I learned to hear some of my favorite artists and albums in a different special way. So I thank you for being so special.
I'd love to see David Byrne on here one day
That would be terrific!
@@attunementtarot Yes, David Byrne is a legend and Rick would bring out the best in him by his music- and production-focused style (versus personal stuff and chit chat, which, as a person on the Spectrum is not DB's comfort zone).
So much better.
Yeah, would be terrific
Oh yes please
I love the content you put out on your channel. From your in-depth knowledge of music theory, demoing your multi instrumentalist chops, to what makes a song great, to the music interviews and everything in between.., love it all. Keep up the good work!
Yeah, TH-cam is the way! 🎉😊Great video Rick!
Please have Bill Nelson formerly of Be Bop Deluxe. A phenomenal guitar player. Just look at his back catalogue of solo works!
Love your channel Rick.
We have some really great musicians, guitarists and producers downunda here in Australia. Would be great to see you do an interview with Angus Young (ACDC) or Johnny Diesel for example. 🎸
The Dave Gilmour short already has 2.1 million views 😲
Would love to have you interview Tom Scholz. Many of us know his story, but I know you would get more out of him from a music perspective. The guy is literally a genius and unafraid at that. Van Halen was a genius without the degree from M.I.T. They both tinkered and chased tone. Amazing.
Tom Scholz believes that recording digitally flips the phase of a signal. 😵💫😵💫 He seems a bit odd.
@@progmeup Genius is often odd.
We can all do ourselves and Rick Beato a favor by reaching out to these musicians and building bridges while they are still alive, and requesting their interview with Rick, and letting them know about the "Beato Bump", which is a mini-revival of their music after their interview with Rick.
This channel has become so important in preserving the memories and lessons of an era of musicians that will be gone soon.
Something tells me you can land an interview with Page or Gilmour one day
Was just thinking yesterday that it would be a matter of time before Gilmour showed up.
Agree. Gilmour's actually been all over youtube the past few months because of his new album. A couple interviews and session recordings.
@@SkorpioMusic Yup! Plus he's done a bunch of magazine interviews, even NPR! :)
