Doug has it ALL!!!
The talent, chops, understands Rock music, the look, hair & personality.
The guy is an All-Star!
I was a student of Doug's back in the early '80s at Instrumental Music in TO. I remember Doug teaching me Rainbow In The Dark and Still of the Night... I still have all the tablature books that he wrote out for me. It is crazy to think that one day he would be in those bands playing those same songs! Doug is such a GREAT guitarist... and an even better person! I am so happy to see all his success!
You must have stayed with him thru `87 or so. You should have some chops yourself.
@@randallamps I was with Doug from '84 to '90.
So glad Doug Aldrich is getting the recognition he deserves. Such a killer guitar player. Amazing chops and great feel.
Doug is the man!
Agreed. You're not bad yourself, Rob.
Robert Baker always getting that top comment
Cool
Real cool...
Parabéns.. incrível 👏👏💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Imagine Doug Aldrich and Richie Faulkner working together. even if just for a short project, that would be some classic master level guitar-duo stuff. legendary.
Hell yeah
That would be epic.
I just puts my comment down whitout knowing your comment. Cool
This duo for Priest!
Waoooo, will be great. And Zakk Wyld? Hahaha, imagine?
Thumbs up if Doug should get a signature Les Paul
Amen!!!! I'll second that!😎
He really deserves a signature guitar!
Ya, definitely a gold top with a black pickguard 👍🏻😄, wait they gave that one to Joe Bonamassa already 😂
@@heavymetal9330 6 the ⁶62⁴ tree
@John Stanford that's awesome
Doug Aldrich is one of the Best.
Saw hin with Whitesnake, Glenn Hughes and the Daisies.
He is phenomenal !
Doug is salt of the earth....... a wonderful guy with a beautiful spirit!
Now THAT is the sound of a Les Paul. A tight thunk on the bottom end, some sizzle in the top and a bigger than life midrange with tons of harmonic content.
This guy was born for hard rock. The ultimate hard rock guitarist!
His stuff with dio rocked
Doug has been my top guitarist since I first seen him live with Dio. Met him twice when with Whitesnake then Dead Daisies... Always an absolute gent. Asked about my upcoming wedding, photo bombed a photo with myself and Dave from Daisies. They say don't meet your heroes. I met mine and I couldn't have been happier
The way he plays is so smooth and fluid it's nuts.
Doug Aldrich is pretty great and very humbling when he talks. His stories are very immersive to his lesson. Lots of respect to this guy.
Doug Aldrich is on my short list favorite guitarists, with Jimmy Page, Jake E Lee, Adrian Vandenberg, Joe Bonamassa, Chris DeGarmo... His original work is powerful and creative. He covers other artists work like a freakin monster and works the stage with major mojo. But my favorite thing about him is his excellent character. He is humble and modest about his playing, often commending the guitarists he has shared stages with. I've heard him say he has given lessons to amateur players, "... better than myself." He is what truly talented artists should be but seldom are-- gracious and appreciative. We should celebrate truly golden souls like Mr Aldridge.
...iron maidens axemen should be here too...
Love that you have DeGarmo on your list. I don’t hear his name mentioned much anymore.
How about john sykes
@@zoomzamkablaam1423 Why? He is naming his favorites, not yours....
I gotta say this, Doug is not only a terrific musician, he is even more terrific as a human being, super nice humble guy, I met him in NYC and he couldn't be more nice and gentil, God bless you man !!!!!
"Don't beat yourself up, it'll all come from the inside out..." That's a humble and crucial advice from a loveable, down-to-earth guy and a real, passionate player. Thanks for being such an inspiration, Doug! Much love and respect. 💛🙏🏼
Now this is the good quality content I expected from Gibson years ago.
Wish I’d had You Tube and this tutorial 38 years ago when I started guitar. Doug is an amazing player and all round nice guy. Saw him live with Whitesnake and blew me away
it's so "spiritual" to hear the "Rawness" of a les paul plugged straight into a Marshall. The essence of true Rock N Roll.
My neighbours may beg to differ lol
Love this classic sound of a Les Paul straight into a Marshall.
There's a distortion pedal in between, he gets his sound that way.
You mean Marshall amps?
Really relaxing to see this guy talking and playing.
These riff lord videos are great. Learning to play these riffs is awesome.
More episodes coming soon!
Doug, congratulations for being one of the greatest Rockstars in the world. In addition, I salute you for inspiring this new generation. You are in Modo Somewhere!
Doug is highly respected from those that know his past. I really wish his work with his band Burning Rain would have caught on with more audience appeal. Some of the jams they did on those records with Keith St John and Sean McNabb was killer stuff. Quality blues based rock. Do what you do Doug, glad to see Burning Rain had a release in 2019 with different members.
The guy who had one bad lesson becomes a great teacher.👍
Totally right?
It really doesn't get any better than this, we get to hear cool stories as well as watching these legends how to play these amazing songs. Thank you for all the people at Gibson TV so much 👍👍👍
Doug has always been a class act...humble guy, and great player
Doug is even more amazing as a human being, just the best, love him and his family tons❤️
Respect the Doug. Only man who did justice to Campbell and Sykes. Wish he had more original material with Dio & Coverdale
PLEASE keep this Riff Lords series going! It's outstanding!!
More episodes coming soon!
@@gibsonguitar Excellent! I love how they are so clear about how the songs are played. I had been playing Youth Gone Wild totally wrong before this video. Sounds incredible now! You guys have a great thing going with this. Kids getting Gibsons soon!
Whitesnake live with Doug Aldrich was some seriously slaying shit. Live in Japan was some killer stuff.
That is exactly the same show I was thinking about. Epic!
Still Of The Night live 2004 is even better in my oppinion!
Charlie's World the whole 2004 show is just kick ass! They were on fire, this show was perfection.
Yes! Doug with Whitesnake was a freaking monster.
2004 show is the absolute best!!
All skills and no fluff. Lays everything out in a simple to understand way and he gives a lot of cool ideas for you to try out with regards to riffs and different tunings.
Possibly one of the best guitarist and just a nice bloke
Doug is an incredible player and such a cool guy.
I learned so much thanks to Doug videos. Got my first Les Paul because of him, I'm forever grateful. This man is a legend.
I love the bit at 30:33 to 30:43 where Doug shows the correct way to play Fool For Your Loving (only a quick snip of the start of the song but its enough to see and hear). I have been playing it the way many teach it on the net (for years) and keep thinking to myself 'this does not sound right'. This is the only time I have ever seen Fool For Your Loving played this way on the net (I am sure there maybe others but I have not found it) now, at long last when I play it, it sounds spot on!! Doug, a true legend.
doug aldrich is one of the best guitar player, hands down to this man
One of my favorite guitarists of the modern day. Thanks Doug!
I remember seeing him watching Dio's killing the dragon DVD, what a beast.
Still looks like I first remember him!
Dude I love the new Whitesnake stuff with dough. He really adds a new dimension to the band. Almost Dough was meant to be there all along. Dough has inspired me for a very long time. A solid guy.
I'm 14 and Whitesnake is one of my favourites. Doug is a true guitar hero!!
You need to check out john sykes he's the one that wrote the guitar parts for still of the night and he played with white snake
@@anthonypeters44 Oh yeah! I know him, he is one of my favorites. Awesome guitarist. The whole 87 album is great!
Man, that Heaven Gets You By tune is beautiful!! Awesome guitar work Big D!!!! You Rock!!!!
How I love Doug! For me it has always been a great source of inspiration! Thanks Gibson for this other great video!!!!
Doug it's Great...I Love him...
@@marilynmemdoza5142 😊🤘💪🎸
I'm a lifelong metal head and Doug has become one of my favorite guitarists. He definitely doesn't get the appreciation he deserves.
A great guy who has earned every bit of his success. And a monster player as well!
A perfect guest for this show. Doug's awesome. One of my favorite players. 🍻
What a talent and a great humble teacher. Love that Gison into a Marshall sound. Rock on Doug!!
My favorite Dio guitarist! If he and Sykes were in Whitesnake at the same time, that would have been amazing!
This video is my hard rock reference tone. Killer modded marshall tones. Love Doug!
My friend DA... he makes it look so easy. Very talented, effortless and wonderful every time. Love you, Brother, Forevermore. 🖤
I love listening to Rock n metal and this is to me one of the most underrated guitarist , I would love to sit at least one time with Doug in person and talk about guitar playing n music . Keep on Rocking Doug .”Long Live Rock n Roll “
Doug is such a great guitarist and has awesome stage presence . Hes the the man !!
Totally enjoyed watching Doug and Reb Beach together on stage with White Snake.
When I was in jr. high and High school, Doug taught at my local guitar store in little Thousand Oaks, CA. I remember a few of my friends taking lessons from him and how much they liked him. We also remember when he got Lion together. We all hoped they'd make an impact. They had a video on MTV, which was pretty crazy for young kids that just knew him as the local guitar teacher. He was also a very nice guy. You can tell he is a guitar teacher at heart, here. I know now in my 40's as a vocational instructor, what a good teacher is. This is it.
I saw him rocking a pointy guitar when he was in Hurricane. He just ruled the stage. Had the looks, the moves, the chops. He made it the top level of rock guitarists. Seems like a cool guy too.
One of the most entertaining and informative guitar tutorials Ive seen. The man is not only a great guitar player but also a great teacher.
That Les Paul sounds amazing . Doug Aldrich is such a great player
plus he's taking the time to explain all these classic rock songs .
I just found this and began watching. Now I'm addicted. Awesome teacher. I'm self taught to and left handed novice. Watching Doug teach is a mirror to me. Best thing I could've found.
Great to see a monster player on display! Doug is amazing!
So generous of him to show us how it's done, nice and slow too, thanks Doug
I think your an incredible teacher as well as musician. Thank you for your time
He was also in Hurricane, played on the Slave To The Thrill album. I think he was with Jackson at the time so there's a lot of whammy and harmonics action, but the riffs are killer. If you ever heard Guitar Center radio ads in the '90s and early '00s, the intro and background music was songs from that Hurricane album.
Yess,glad you mentioned this. People forget that Kelly Hansen of Foreigner was the singer for Hurricane, all of HURTICANE'S stuff kicks ass in my opinion. I'm also a North Carolinian like Doug.Hope to meet him some day.🙂
Great information! Thanks.
Great stuff! Thanks so much for posting this gem.
Never understood why he's been under rated. This video is the color of that guitar. Thanks Doug!
This is exactly what I need to get those riffs down ...have a professional musician whis played them before and show me how its done perfect setting ...hes a good teacher straight and direct...no mumbo jumbo ..GREAT TEACHER 👍
Did you just say 'mumbo jumbo'
His work with Bad Moon Rising was awesome, Opium for the masses stills a pure great rock n roll album ! Amazing guitar player
Doug is insanely good! Such an inspiration
Doug knows quite a bit of theory for a guy who learned to play by ear.
Doug - is one of my favorite Hard & Heavy guitarists in the world. I love all of his musical parts in the ''DIO'' and ''WHITESNAKE'' bands for style and great guitar technique. Everything he does admires and fully corresponds to my ideas about the real heavy guitar sound and manner of performance. Long live hard & heavy style and heavy music FOREVER !!!
Doug rocks 🤘🏻 ...counting down to when they get Slash on here...
Doug what a genius so talent and humble!this show is awesome keep going guys!!
Doug sounds great in any project he does! Thanks for a great vid!
Really enjoyed this episode, Thanks to Doug Aldrich! Thanks Gibson!
I took lessons from Doug back in the 80s in Thousand Oaks. Such a cool guy
So did I at Instrumental Music on TO Blvd... GREAT memories! He is such a great guitarist and overall person. I am glad to see his success!
Loved the forevermore album soo much
I saw Doug with Dio on the Killing the Dragon Tour back in 2002 at the Cricket Pavillion in Arizona with Scorpions & Whitesnake. I also saw Doug with Whitesnake in 2003 at the same venue. Awesome shows!
I remember having a long conversation with you when I met you at the Starwood Amphitheater Nashville Tennessee, you were doing the Dio gig at the time and it was a thrill to watch you rip it up!!!
Don't forget "Burning Rain," Gibson, in the Title.
Honestly, Aldrich's Era of Whitesnake might be my favorite. Too good. Wish he could have stayed longer. "Good To Be Bad" & "Forevermore" are sick records with tremendous songs and production which Doug produced.
YES! So underrated
So true. Easier said than done, I Need You, One of The Days etc.... Had these albums been released 20 - 30 years earlier it would have without a doubt achieved legendary status like the 1987 Album. They are such radio friendly songs.
@@DTM-ch7jy 100% truth. Easier Said Than Done could have crossover into Country Radio if it wanted to.
Thanks for the upload!!!
Thanks for about a dozen of the best guitar lessons I’ve ever had!
Amazing Doug Aldrich ..forever!
Great video! More like this, please!
I love these riff lords videos, please keep them coming!
Hey Doug! Amazing lesson. Love to hear the back stories!... Cheers!..
YEEEEEES!!!! Doug and Faulkner what more to want
Thanks for this- Doug is an absolute beast and his work with Dio is some of my favorite
Killer sound,mr. Doug amazing guitar player!Great stuff! Thanks!!!
Aside from being one of the top guitarist in rock & roll, he is incredibly humble in the interviews he gives , and lessons he teaches. He has definitely inspired me to be a better guitarist…..
Those ones who have lucky to have a personal teacher like Doug or someone of his level don't know how honored they are! He is really inspiring.
He is one of the best.
I loved everything about this video.🤘🏼 Hi Doug! Great job.
its pretty cool to hear a guitar hero say " i think this is how it goes" nice to know deep down we all think the same
one of the best, most likeable and most humble rock guitarists of all time.
Damn this classic glam metal from WS has lot in it! Sounds simple but looks difficult. Sykes is real genius.
Killer player, killer tone!
Tip: Still of the Night main riff is deceptive...Your ear and brain want to think all the parts are the same, but each one is different.... break it into the 4 sub-types.. That will help.
Awesome lesson I love using pinch harmonics. Ur a great humble teacher.
Thank you Gibson! He motivates me to keep playing.
Doug is awesome and I love that guitar. I play my Gibson every day!
Doug dosnt age he's awesome great guy and guitar player btw I just got a free hour of lessons from Doug thanks Gibson Ur still the best
Love that gold top love that sound and Doug seems to be a very kind guy ! Great lesson Thanks 🙏🤟
