Rick said,”if you don’t know what to practice,that’s a problem” I can tell you from being self taught and learning the hard way as well as from teaching that should should practice those things you hate to practice! And I’m only half kidding. Of course you don’t want to end up hating practice,but I can guarantee that if you just practice willy nilly you will make little progress. Practice those things which don’t come easily for you.If you have ever heard someone play that is a self taught beginner you know that they play the same things over and over.They play what they know and what comes easily. You have to break that tendency and focus on a routine as if you have a teacher.Give yourself assignments and practice those until you can do them .Here is the most important thing: stop avoiding those things which you find difficult.
that is a true lesson that should be applied across the entire spectrum of existence...it will spawn growth and learning in us all
This is the most useful tip for any intermediate player that's hit a "plateau". It's advice we all know but choose not to acknowledge all of the time because it means we're have to traverse uncomfortable ground.
Great tip!
You’re right. I’m self taught and it took me 25 years to know what I know now.
Most of my soloing work over the years has been trying to get the right balance between variation and repetition, using different rhythms and dynamics, learning to take breaks and not overplay. Now I'm working more on note choice, targeting chord tones, and playing over more complex changes, and it's a headache, but slowly getting better. Your videos and the Beato Book has helped me a lot on the path already!
Music Wolverine is in the house!
Very good segment, Rick!
(24:37) Brilliant! "Be predictive. You have to show the listener where we're going". You are LEADING the listener on a journey (or telling a story through the "Narrator's Voice").
speads for me.
Since finding your channel Ive picked up the guitar after not playing for a hundred years. Computers have made me lazy. LOL!
When I was a kid I was the solo king. I had a great ear and could improvise over almost anything with all of the emotion and expression I could summon from within. After 20 years of not playing the guitar and writing only film scores, there was no improvising in my workflow ... hindering my ability to improvise. I have lost whatever I had that gave me the ability to solo. Videos like this one is helping me find what ever I had as an improviser when I was younger. A tremendous thank you
Rick B. is one of my favorite guitarists right now. Can't wait for his debut solo cd!
Perfect! I was literally teaching a lesson on this stuff during the live stream- I should've checked the notification and just put you on, haha
The more I watch you the more I learn. Even it I dont understand it right away. Thank you so much Rick
I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Thank you Rick!
That was awesome, Rick! Really enjoyed the video!
Rick is the guy I never knew as a young aspiring musician. I feel like I have known him all my live, like he was my neighbor. Great guy.
I just found your podcast on Spotify (looking for your music), nice! Thanks for all you do.
love you Rick.... your amazing.... great to hear you set those jazz runs on fire.... just amazing.
nice sounds! Your sense of phrasing makes it really groove.
Purchased iReal on your recommendation, looking forward to using it in conjunction with the Beato book. I love the way you always make whatever you do look so effortless.
Awesome! Don Mock's ideas are perfect for studying this video. Great Rick!!
awesome stuff Rick, gets me excited about my guitar like back in my teens.
Rick: Thanks for the inspiration. I'm in the process of becoming your biggest fan here. IDEA: rather than use software, you can "comp" your own chord sequences using a loop station. Then you become proficient at comping as well, and this sort of practice may lead to your being able to accompany yourself live, with or without the loop station. Just a thought.
thanks again! You help me bridge whats missing in my soloing......improvising!
That was relaxing and educational at the same smooth time
Such smooth playing. I'm beyond jealous.
Big fan here. Your black les paul would be a perfect addiction to my small guitar collection. 😬 loving every episode! Next time in europe, find a day or two to visit Portugal. Lunch and diner granted. ✌🏻
17:40. You start going off on the Dorian scale, and I felt like I just won the Lottery of happiness. That, is the scale I’ve been waiting on. Ty.
Rick, you are such an amazing improvisor
nice surprise ! was just playing with my guitar !
This is such high quality content! - Also like the beard 🧔 Makes you more the master you are for us padawans out there!
Great skills to learn and to actually hear. Thsnks for sharing
"Hey Dylan, wanna come down here and watch me talk to people?"
*"No."*
Rekt epic style
Haha!!
Thanks for teaching me perfect pitch at a young age dad 🤦♂️
Epic!
@Circumcision is Jewish Genital Mutilation -Why do ya gotta make it weird?
Very nice playing, Rick.
Cool lines, Rick! And I like your sound.
So much of respect for you sir.
Thank you for all the beautiful c minorish ideas!! You really DO know wtf you're talking about! I could study just this video for weeks :)
26:45 to 29:30, pure magic, inspiring. Thanks Rick!
I’m so glad you mentioned iRealPro. I started using it to build a jazz vocabulary by downloading the playlists from their forum. The Beato Book is awesome by the way.
I love the “old man Logan” look!😇
A little late to the party here, but this was exactly what I needed to see today. Fantastic video!
Great improvisational instruction good advice
33:59 was smoking!
Best half hour of my day. Thanks
As always great content
Awesome lesson, @Rick Beato! I love iReal B and I also use Band-in-a-Box for creating my own backing tracks with samples of real players for jamming and coming up with solo ideas. The way you build on motifs and create logical phrases in here is very helpful for this kind of practice.
BiaB is good as it creates interesting real guitar rhythm parts that can be easily copied.
This felt like the guitar version of a painting by Bob Ross. That was great man. I loved the way you went through the process of creating , turning a bland series of notes into something that sounds really cool and is uniquely yours.
You're the man Rick!
Love tge new look! Very cool!
Your'e killing it. Steve.
I am hearing the Frampton influences here my friend, great melody.
Nice, I love using Band In The Box for practicing as well.
Joe Calandrella
Such a great lesson!
It’s a gas to see the Danelectro so we’ll-employed.
My wonderful ex-wife bought me the same guitar in red twenty years ago, and it’s one of my favorites.
Cannot knock it out of tune, and the neck is very very fast.
So good, man.
thanks gonna go try it
Some really nice motifs/ideas and some nice triadic/intervallic permutations too. Love the phrase starting @ 17:06 - has a Pat Metheny vibe.
Love that guitar. Too cool.
Wow did not expect you to start sweeping amazing video haha
I like this a LOT!!!
Good connectivity and chord changes
Nice Feel
Perhaps one of the luckiest accidents when I started playing the guitar - bearing in mind I had done a bit of Piano for a couple of years, so I had a loose idea of key theory - but coming to the guitar I felt that had all been a bit boring for me, so I wanted to throw myself in at the deep end... so what I decided to do, without any real guidance form anyone, was to just put the radio on and try to play along. I'm sure it sounded horrible for the first few months, but eventually something just clicked, and my fingers just knew where to be. This was what started me off as an improvisational guitarist, up to that point I hadn't really converted any of my theory knowledge from Piano to Guitar, so that came laster, but my fingers... they knew what they were doing! Seems this app you're recommending is a nice alternative :-)
I have a simular background. First I learned how to play alomg by ear and my fingers just did the thing they were supposed to. Not perfectly ofcourse. Even nowadays I rely more on my ear and fingers even though I'm at a decent level on theory.
Students often don't realize the importance of both listening and playing along. Charlie Parker, John Coltrane..., all the greats played along to records, it's just how its done.
Happy Sunday my friend....
@15 min, that was the type of thing I was playing earlier today. It started as me playing hammer ons to get warmed up, then I came up with a pattern that cycled from the A string down to the B string using half step hammer ons that sounded cool. The guitar is endless when it comes to ideas. I'm ok on guitar, but I can't play super fast string changing solos, so I alway try to come up with odd stuff and a lot of chromatic playing, and lines using octaves.
Its Rick's evil twin, Rick Beardto!
Great vidio,for where I'm at. Thanks
A $20 Play Along program is Chord Pulse...loops chord progressions that has bass,drums,guitars,organ,piano,etc....depending on the (many) song styles to choose from. Many, many chord voicings to choose and build from!
I often miss your live streams. To be fair this was like 4 or so in the morning where I am, but I've put the bell on nonetheless
The phone call to Dylan was hilarious and adorable at the same time
you could have called this video "how to have a voice on your instrument 101". And lovely tones from that dano, almost like an archtop
Hi Rick , thanks for the various teachings they’ve been very helpful in making me a better guitar player. Please can you do a series of guitar lessons/ lectures from basics onward on every thing one has to know to be able to solo or improvise over any song etc. probably one can subscribe for the teachings for a fee or something. Stuck in a rut here’s ..lol. Thanks
Those lines you're playing are very horn like and beautiful
Could you do a video about classical guitar? Including it's repertoire and techniques/tone? It would be interesting to see your take on it.
You should probably seek out full time classical guitar players to learn from. It’s a different animal entirely, with foundational knowledge way different than what your watching here.
Formidable playing brother
Your a great guitar player.
Ireal Pro is unreal! Very cool app. Bought it a couple days ago 👍
You need to do 3 videos on soloing
Country
Rock and Blues
and Jazz
To me they are all different!
You seem to be fond of that guitar. I love my danelectro baritone. Cool guitars
Gold lesson .
Rick you are my master
Sorry I missed this live so I'm catching up on the replay.

Nice lines
Hi Rick, I enjoy your channel very much even though im not a musician! I was wondering if you can share a couple of thoghts:
Your top rock producers
What makes a recording studio good
Your thoughts on Mike Oldfield(in my opinnion a genius)
Your views on Queen from a producers perspective
Your thougts on Roy Thomas Baker
Hope you get to read this
Keep on the great work!
9:05 I see what you did there rick
Just as a matter of history, "motive" was the original word used in music theory jargon to translate the German word "Motiv". All textbooks before the 60s (including Schoenberg's "Fundamentals of Music Composition", which is a must read) used that word. "Motif" is correct, of course, but it's more recent.
Good taste
How would you recommend getting to know my instrument better? I want to get better at improvising, but I feel like I might just know the way around my instrument all that well. Any tips on improving this?
Do you keep the same scale while the key remains the same ? or can you change scale (ie the starting note of the scale) without the key changing ?
can you change scale on a simple chord change(without the key changing)?
It’s fun and easy to practice things you already know really well. That doesn’t inch you forward to being a better player unless you practice things your not good at playing. But that’s not fun and can be frustrating. This video should be retitled to “watch Rick practice and tell us what he is playing is very difficult” lol. His hair looks particularly very well today!
Rick. Thank you for this. This is a one-off, so my apologies. I play keyboards, rhythm guitar in a classic rock band. Can you recommend or do a bit on how I should be practicing to become the next Jon Lord? I really want to improve my skills.
You do realize that, when your son gets to be a teenager, he’ll start demanding royalties for appearances in your videos.
I hope you know the true depth of your comment at this point...
David Callahan does he realize that he has perfect pitch because of rick?
I’ve successfully landed on the other side of that imaginary line at the age of 20, with a few scrapes, but still ticking.
Great video! Your beard is much better than Rick Flair's!!
My favorite solo is a RUSH song from the caress of steel album. The song is the Necromancer part 3.
Thanks for putting me on!
Hey Rick! 🤙
That phone call to Dylan was funny daddy-o!
Thanks for the tip on iReal Pro; kind of cheesy on the rock numbers (Immigrant Song is hilarious), but cool for jazz standards.
what would you say is the definitive way to learn scale patterns/positions? i know how to spell major, harmonic minor, and melodic minor scales when away from the guitar, but i'm confused with the many ways that scales are laid out. my instructor says that i should learn the caged positions as well as three note per string scale positions, but i feel as if there should be one way that's the definitive way to learn scales.
How to get there? What is the step by step instruction to get to be able to play phrases that you hear in your head or otherwise.
Just perfect!🌸💐🌹🌺🌸💐🌹💐🌺🤗🤗🤗
I wish I was there when you were streaming ..x
Thousands of dollars of guitars on the rack and the stand behind Rick and the Chinese fiberboard Dano is the go-to choice. LOL. Reminds me of the story where Dan Akroyd goes to John Belushi's music room where there are thousands of records on the shelves but the disc that is on the turntable is Black Sabbath.
Rick i purchased the Beato book,But haven't went threw the whole book. Is anything your doing in this video in the beato book?
I have your Beato book!
Perfect advice (12:20) - the "Formatic" structure of phrasing, just like in spoken language, needs a phrase: "I like cats", then a sentence: "I like cats because they are warm and fuzzy", then a paragraph (a verse or chorus), then a chapter (the finished song), then a novel (an album). The cool thing, as "call and response" allows interplay between two ideas, you can use humor for contrast, as in "I like cats>>without their fleas>>I like cats>>they make me sneeze", and extend the initial two-part Formatic with variations that add, exchange, or recapitulate with modification on the basic binary structure. Binary is important to structure because human beings primarily feel rhythms in twos. Yes, there are other "counts" of rhythm, but "Binary is Primary".
i could hear out "without the fleas" and "they make me sneeze" as note bends and this whole explanation became much more clearer and interesting. good stuff.
Gabor Szabo? I suppose him and Carlos Santana are just very "jazzy"? (So "it's the other way round").
Interesting thing I've found since discovering that it's more fun to get to know your way round scales by playing over a backing track (and hopping around, chucking in passing tones, and spicing it all up with wrong notes) is how the accompaniment determines/ constrains the "song" that emerges. I suppose there are a few possible songs, but that bass, rhythm, drums narrows down the possibities quite a lot.
(I suppose the bigger constraint in my case is having less scales etc available inside the head bone, but it does remind me of Adam Neelly saying something about how he liked being on the bass, because this put him in charge of what everyone would be playing next, so even a master has to somewhat stay on the rails, once they've been laid down.)
I love Danelectro!
