How to play "Alison" by Slowdive (Guitar Lesson)

Check my "Machine Gun" Cover: • machine gun (slowdive ...
Chords for "Alison" are:
Verse: A, B
Chorus: E, A (x3) D, E, B, A, E
Can use Amaj7 in the above. A also sounds good.
Lesson covers verse, chorus, and outro little riff.
I also show a few other ways to play the song that either sound more accurate or interesting.

"I don't know the lyrics but I know the melody"
Don't worry, neither does Slowdive...

Brett’s Frets could also be him videos of him worrying and listing his anxieties

[@SportyWizard18]

thank u bret for all u have done with this channel. it is a gold mine for people like me who like obscure indie rock

[@Novembrine]

Awesome, thanks man! This is my favorite song and I'm just getting into guitar- appreciate the lesson!

[@kellyhartman7266]

Yup that's it. Add a Catalinbread "Soft Focus" pedal with the dials dimed, and it is exactly the same. Or you could use a Yamaha FX500 on setting 40, but that's exactly what the pedal is. (It's also called "the Souvlaki pedal")

Thanks man !

[@luzng]

I love those purple headphones

[@rohanramgude7874]

Not sure if you are around, but thank you mate!

[@AlbumReviewChannel]

I'll be here trying to figure out what Yo La Tengo song you are thinking of lol. It honestly did, my guess something off of ICHTHBAO

[@GuitarWithBrett]

Probably "You can have it all" ( from "And Then Nothing turned itself inside out", 2000)

[@alanohara2500]

Hey man, that was awesome what you did there starting at 9:47. How does one learn to play like that?

[@GuitarWithBrett]

Years of practice ... Also, write your own songs and Jam a lot over songs you like .
Try to get away from memorizing and reading TAB .. .when I taught guitar, many songs had no TAB so had to learn songs by ear , which also really increases intuition (just playing by ear in general)

Has anyone ever described you as laconic?

[@GuitarWithBrett]

Nope :), I talk too much usually ... assuming by laconic you mean using few words

[@danman92]

awesome vid.. could you do eno's here come the warm jets?

[@GuitarWithBrett]

Cool D Dr, glad you liked the vid! Yeah , I can help eventually ... I have a lot of requests and do what I can. That's a cool song

[@danman92]

Brett Sanders thanks man! yeah that's an incredible song and album... kinda predates mbv and shoegaze imo

[@GuitarWithBrett]

That's interesting, I haven't thought about early shoegaze. I guess I think of Velvet Underground as a precursor too ... some of their songs

[@danman92]

Brett Sanders definitely... VU are tied with pavement as my favorite band.. also check out spacemen 3 and lot of that krautrock stuff like can and neu! that had a p big influence on it

[@GuitarWithBrett]

Are you into Galaxie 500 at all?
