Just face palmed myself...........Mr Jeff Beck #1 

Of course Jeff Beck has to be mentioned - a very innovative guitarist I must say. ?

Checked out Johnny Lang now - really a cool player and never heard of him bevor. Whileworth to make a tutorial I think. ?

I haven't listened to him in a while. I'm sure I have a cd or two of his somewhere. ? Johnny Lang tutorial sounds good to me.

I will first make one of the new AC DC song. They are coming back with a new band.

Sad news: Eddie Van Halen has succumbed to his battle with cancer this morning. 2020 has to be one of the worst years ever...RIP Eddie

Yes I read it in the newspaper - another legend on guitar has left us. I thought about doing a tutorial about Eddie but I think there are already enough around. RIP - thanks for your work and inspiration for us guitar lovers.

Yes I read about how people who heard this record the first time and just did not get what this guitar sound was on that record. ?

Hi Gang,

New to the group..

Agree to all the above, all monsters.  My personal fav is probably Larry Carlton....until yesterday when I stumbled on this kid... he's 20 something.  Maybe the best I've ever seen??

Check this chit-out!.

I agree - he is a really awesome guitar player!  Playing so fast without a pick- it is really incredible stuff.  I especially liked "The Chicken".

This guy is really good - a mixture between Larry Carton and Robben Ford. The blues reminded me a lot to Robben Ford also the tone. And it's really great with the finger picking I must say.

"The Chicken"

That tune is  played at every jamsession here in Zürich. I think I should make a tutorial about that one. Always planed to do it - but was stuck in technical changements of the HPCrazy Guitar Academy.

MSG has a new album coming out here’s a sample I love the way the keyboards and guitar go back and forth. Michael is still going strong at age 65!

I really like the track reminds me a bit to Accept and the guitar work is still great. Maybe I check it out in a upcoming tutorial 😄

Depends how you play it. Here in Zürich this is one of the most overused tunes at jamsessions. 😄
