    I recently received a request to teach "Walk This Way" by Aerosmith in a private lesson, and to be honest, it's been a while since I played it. Upon revisiting the song, I realised I had never fully learned it, and what I did know required quite a bit of correction. It's worth mentioning again that it's not just our playing skills that improve over time, but also our musical ear.
    As I discuss in the video, when I was younger, I never quite mastered the second solo; it always seemed impossible or didn't quite sound right to me. Let me know your thoughts on how close I got this time.

    In Joe Perry's book, he talks about how he is actually left handed but when he got his first guitar, it came with instructions on how to play it so he held the guitar as indicated even though it was for people who are right handed. He didn't know any better. I think that's part of the secret recipe behind Joe's playing, his lead parts always had a bit of a shuffle or boogie that was really hard (for me, at least) to figure out. In the solo for 'Dude Looks Like a Lady', this is really on display. His frethand has almost a rhythmic shuffle to it as he's playing lead. Hard to explain, but I think a big part of it is that his natural strumming hand is fretting -- and vice versa.

    • @SpedSpedding
      @SpedSpedding  หลายเดือนก่อน

      That’s really interesting and actually quite rare; Gab is left handed and plays right too. Just makes sense that she doesn’t have to buy everything again. Her grip is really strong and she doesn’t struggle with chord shapes as much as I did. I’ll keep an eye on her; Joe Perry licks could be flying out of the lounge any day now. 😂😂😂

    Nice work! Perry is deceptively difficult. From tricky curly-ques to his timing; and it's all natural for him, that's why it swings so well. He's not trying to do something hard, he's letting his flow take over. This is the first video of yours I've seen. I'm going to subscribe as I see some interesting others in the sidebar. Again, nice work!

His work on the song “Crazy” is so good. That 1950’s bluesy vibe and that spotlight solo. Would make for a badass video.

    At around 7:38 when you talk about picking (up or down and when to use) is extremely helpful. I'm not a 'natural player' in terms of lead/solo work, but your little aside on this issue, and for this song, was very helpful. You touch on the up or down stroke many times over the course of your videos, but this one struck me as a bit of "a-ha!"- hammer-ons and pull-offs are basically equal in importance to up-or down-stroke. Thanks Sped, for helping this hack on his journey.

    • @SpedSpedding
      @SpedSpedding  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I'm pleased you found that useful! In my videos, I aim to address potential areas where viewers might struggle. Unlike in one-to-one lessons where there's direct conversation, I have to anticipate what different people might be wondering. While it's not always necessary to pick riffs in a specific way, often, passing the picking hand over, particularly during hammer-ons or pull-offs, can help maintain a smooth rhythm, which I've previously referred to as "the DNA helix of rhythm". I hope this explanation helps clarify things for you!

      There are numerous ways to approach it. Based on my observation of both live performances and covers by others, they often opt for the classic blues shuffle with an extensive stretch. However, as demonstrated in this video, I prefer playing it over three strings. Not only does it sound closer to the track, but it also requires less stretching.

    Saw JP a few years ago at the 101 club in London, stood no more the 3 feet from him all night, he really is a unique and wonderful musician- and sooo cool! Brilliant lesson Spedlington, been trying to master that solo, and sweet emotion for years! (And failing miserably)!🤘🎸❤

    Dick Wagner played that on the original album, and in fact for Aerosmith's first four albums at the insistence of the record company/ Poor old (young) Joe had to learn them so the band could reproduce the albums' songs live.

    • @strattt10

      Couldn't be more wrong. Joe plays every Joe solo on Toys. Toys solo, Uncle Salty, Big ten inch, WTW, Adams Apple, sweet emotion to name a few. 100% ALL Joe. Those two cooper guys play on a few songs on GYW ONLY. Listen to that tour, Joe smoked!

    • @arthurblackhistoric
      @arthurblackhistoric 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@strattt10 . . There is plenty of "proof" that I'm right, fella. The guitar magazines all support what I wrote, and Steven Tyler himself, at some music industry function introduced the people he was with to Dick Wagner, who was quite accidentally walking past Steven, as the guitarist who made him (Steven) sound good on Aerosmith's early albums. That kinda thing happened all the time back in those days. Rather than take a risk on an unknown guitarist from a fresh new band, the record execs had a policy of using studio pros for a guaranteed top shelf product. It was then up to the often hapless guitarists in those new bands to learn to play a reasonable facsimile of what was on the record. I've had first hand experience of that myself. I joined a high profile local band who'd just finished recording their first album. I wondered why they were learning their own songs from the album's cassette. Their keyboard player, who'd joined the week before I did, but had done some stage production for them for ages and knew their dirty secrets, told me that all the band did on the recordings was sing! Nick Cotzea was the producer, and Phil Yates was the studio's guitarist. Happily, Phil and I became friends in the years that followed.
