Don Rich was a bit ahead of his time. Buck Owens pleaded with him to stay off that motorcycle, but he didn't listen and was taken from us way too soon. The heartbeat of The Buckaroos, and a perfect harmony for Buck's live performances. Thanks for this tutorial.
👋 Mr Walker yes this is a very good version' one of my favorites.... another one you might be interested in. Buckaroo by Patrick Lozac'h, played on a B and G Bender tele.
Wow, always loved Buck Owens and Don Rich especially, I have to say you play this magnificently and I will do my best to learn it from you, best wishes, Dean
I have played Walk Don't Run in every band since my FIRST in Jr. High (1964) thru to current - It hit #1 on the charts TWICE (1960 & '64), by the same band! I will add "Pipeline" by the Chantays in the same vein - they did an awesome acoustic version a while back ("Wooden Pipe") - thanks for the vid! Always glad to add a Buck Owens tune!
The ventures had some amazing tunes and walk don't run is certainly one of the best! I love the surf rock music and been getting into it over the last few years!
Well played Adrain! Don Rich was fantastic. Thanks for doing this one. I’ve wanted to learn this one for a long time. I shall make another donation to you for your time skills and effort. 🌌🌠👌🙋♂️
Hey Adrian..My favourite instrumental is Cornpickin by James Burton...love this one as it has all his trademark bends, Chicken Pickin and his behind the nut bends aswell...Also love his intro on Emmylous Ooh Las Vegas and that incredible outro descending trademark lick at the end of it...Pure class...Great lesson buddy...Keep them coming...😁😁🎸🎸👍👍
Duane Allman in the Hourglass used to play this. Favorite instrumentals: Sleepwalk - by just about anybody Walk Don't Run - The Ventures Memphis - Lonnie Mack Peaches and Diesel - Eric Clapton Cliffs of Dover - Eric Johnson
Funny. I had a regular happy hour gig at a blues bar here in Sacramento California on Thursday nights for years. We’d play this song, Rumbke, Miserlou, Radiohead , The Kiinks , Neil Young and The Clash. We split eventually because I’m a singer songwriter oriented guy and my friend was a country shreddder. So now I’m watching your channel so I can beat him at his own game hahah.
This is the most complete content on the web. I just signed in for the first time and downloaded your tab for 'Buckaroo'. I love that you include music notation because the rhythms in country music are hard to decipher. I've also been looking for days to find any tab that could give me clues to the steel guitar solo and yours is the first. The video is first class- easy to see the fingerboard plus, the step by step approach makes it easy to follow. Thanks so much; I think that I will be spending a lot of time on your site. Cheers, Michael from British Columbia.
Yeah ! Thank you Adrian. Don and Buck were a musical match made in Heaven and I can't wait to learn this. I love the way country music, even when the lyric is sad, makes me smile and laugh.
Favourite guitar instrumentals: Cha Cha Heels - The Surfrajettes, Rise and Fall of Flingel Bunt - The Shadows, Peter Gunn - The Pirates, Walk Don't Run - The Ventures, Classical Gas - Mason Williams, Grinderswitch - Picking The Blues, Malaguena - The Trashmen, Joe 90 - Barry Gray, Man Of Mystery - The Shadows....
Adrian, one of my favorite country music guitarists is Merle Travis for sure. His thumb and one finger picking style makes it sound like two people are playing at the same time.
A band i played bass with in the late 70s, this was our break song. I've learned some of it on pedal steel and need to learn the rest. Have wanted to learn it in guitar, so now I can. Thank you.
Apache is fantastic. Joy Division also have a great one, Incubation. Phantom by the Sisters of Mercy almost counts, but it's heavily dependent on the drums.
Excellent playing & instruction, sir! I kinda learned this tune from the Leo Kottke version on acoustic guitar with some cross picking. Now I can learn the 'right' way to play it! Thanks for this!
The late great Don Rich. I got to witness Buck Owens in the flesh at Bimbo's 360 club in San Francisco back in the late 1990s. He was dating his much younger backup singer at the time, and they dueted a few tunes. Great time. Your version is fantastic. I too have a butterscotch Tele. Wish I could play as smoothly as you.
What a great lesson!! As for myself, I probably have far too many favorite guitar instrumentals to pick just two or three. I could mention entire albums! But if I had to mention two, lately I've been listening to Clarence Gatemouth Brown's "Gate Walks To Board" and also his version of Pluma Davis' "Okie Dokie Stomp".
Flippin' Heck! I've just heard you refer to the Clarence White version of this (which I'd somehow never heard) so I headed over to Spotify to have a listen: it's incredible: the stuff he does with the B-Bender makes you feel light-headed. Keep up the good work!
My favs: Nashville West by The Byrds. Six Gallon Pie by The Meat Puppets. Lafayette Railroad by Little Feat. Declan by Jeff Beck (though I prefer the original Donal Lunny track), and Main Title Theme (Billy) by Bob Dylan.
the steel guitar part you played on that tele is dynamite. I hope you take this as the compliment it is intended to be, the first time I heard your English dialect and then witnessed you proceed to rip country licks like that kinda' threw me for a moment. Cheers and thanks for sharing your amazing abilities
I see your Mosrite style guitar in the back..... with that said, all Ventures tracks are awesome !!!!!!! Don Rich was great and Buckaroo is one of the best. A lot of folks don't know that Nokie Edwards of the Ventures got his start playing with Buck Owens. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for all the great lessons Adrian, always inspirational. I've always loved Pipeline by the Chantays, the Shadows Atlantis and Jeff Beck's Another Place. (Also Becks Bolero, Clapton's Steppin Out, Hideaway, the bootleg of Hendrix playing Electric Ladyland, aargh can't stop thinking of them now.)
Great lesson as always. An underrated guitar instrumental that would fit this series nicely would be “My Kimono” by Polvo. Not the most popular but just some of the most sublime guitar work out there.
Hi Adrian, thanks for doing this. Don Rich has so many great guitar parts in multiple songs….classic Telecaster songs. Would love for you to do Tiger By the Tail or Love’s Gonna Live Here. There are some wonderful solos in those 2.
beautiful! I'm gonna steal this one. I know there are so many great Tele tunes out there. Hot Property by Heads Hands & feet (Albert Lee) Orange Blossom Special by Johnny Hiland. Sugarfoot Rag - Junior Brown, to name 3.
This is so cool that you do this stuff, I love Don Rich's playing. I have a Tele with a B-bender so I use it for those B string bends. It works really great for those whole step bends.
I learned how to play country from a stately English gentleman. Very nice work as always dude, thanks! By the way, Misirlou probably my favorite electric guitar instrumental.
Little Martha by the Allman Brothers is another classic instrumental on an acoustic or pedal steel. I don't think that I've ever heard it played on a Tele, but that might be interesting as well.
Not after a lesson for any of their songs. But if you like Mogwai, have a listen to Mono (they're Japanese) and D_Drive. Mono tour quite extensively. Well worth catching.
You know, I've always wondered if George Harrison was sitting in his garden messing around with Buckaroo (he was a big fan) and it transformed into "Here comes the Sun." We'll never know ,but whenever I hear one, I think about the other.
Jessica, per your request of favorite guitar instrumentals. It makes heavy use of that second inversion (aka D shape) and associated licks, albeit in a different key. I was not familiar with this tune, but it is now my favorite version of it.
Fab as usual Adrian..Interesting USA restaraunt memoir from Richard Thompson about when he had his full hippie look on he was being verbaly abused by Buck and his Buckaroo's for his hairy image.Thompson got up and walked over and told them each individually by name just how much he admired them all....Nerds will inherite the Earth !! (or never meet your heroes).
Don Rich was a bit ahead of his time. Buck Owens pleaded with him to stay off that motorcycle, but he didn't listen and was taken from us way too soon.
The heartbeat of The Buckaroos, and a perfect harmony for Buck's live performances.
Thanks for this tutorial.
Personal opinion, the best on the internet, with the exception of Don. Awesome playing.
👋 Mr Walker yes this is a very good version' one of my favorites.... another one you might be interested in.
Buckaroo by Patrick Lozac'h, played on a B and G Bender tele.
@BryanClark-gk6ie Iwill check that out. Thanks Bryan.
Absolutely the best I've seen this played in non professional circles...excellent!
Wow, always loved Buck Owens and Don Rich especially, I have to say you play this magnificently and I will do my best to learn it from you, best wishes, Dean
Walk Don't Run by The Ventures! It was one of the songs that inspired me to want to play the guitar. The other one was Torquay by The Fireballs!
I have played Walk Don't Run in every band since my FIRST in Jr. High (1964) thru to current - It hit #1 on the charts TWICE (1960 & '64), by the same band! I will add "Pipeline" by the Chantays in the same vein - they did an awesome acoustic version a while back ("Wooden Pipe") - thanks for the vid! Always glad to add a Buck Owens tune!

Yes indeed!
Man the solo ideas sound soooo gooood!!! I gotta go pick up my guitar and learn this. Don Rich and Buck Owen were amazing!
I'm in my mid 60's and I've never heard that tune before. That was great and extremely well played.
By far the best lesson for this I've found so far. Played very well, and really like you included the steel part which is a classy touch! Thanks!
You are an angel sent from heaven. Keep doing what you're doing!
I just had to say that this is a perfect rendition in every way of Buckaroo Wow
Hey Adrian..My favourite instrumental is Cornpickin by James Burton...love this one as it has all his trademark bends, Chicken Pickin and his behind the nut bends aswell...Also love his intro on Emmylous Ooh Las Vegas and that incredible outro descending trademark lick at the end of it...Pure class...Great lesson buddy...Keep them coming...😁😁🎸🎸👍👍
Duane Allman in the Hourglass used to play this.
Favorite instrumentals:
Sleepwalk - by just about anybody
Walk Don't Run - The Ventures
Memphis - Lonnie Mack
Peaches and Diesel - Eric Clapton
Cliffs of Dover - Eric Johnson
Beautiful playing of one of favorite tunes!!

Love that country sound on the Tele. You really have it dialed in. Will throw Arthur Smith’s Guitar Boogie into the pot.
Don Rich is such a hero to me. Thank you for this, Adrian!!!!
Yeah ! Thank you Adrian. Don and Buck were a musical match made in Heaven and I can't wait to learn this. I love the way country music, even when the lyric is sad, makes me smile and laugh.

Holy Buckets! That was killer! Dangerous Don was the man!
Adrian, one of my favorite country music guitarists is Merle Travis for sure. His thumb and one finger picking style makes it sound like two people are playing at the same time.
That was a brilliant translation of Tom Brumley’s steel guitar to your tele. Fantastic picking.
Anything by The Ventures. Over 100 albums, nearly every genre. All were masterpieces. My favorite, The Latin Album. Thanks for Buckaroo!
This written and originally played by Buck Owens himself. He taught Don Rich how to play it.
Yes, love this. Your channel hits so many of my favorite guitar stuff!
I keep coming back to this video. So well presented.
Thanks for your simple instructions and your humbled approach.
That was awesome. Liked and Subscribed.
Great video. Sounds like John Fogerty might have picked up some licks from this old song. Thanks, Adrian
That's great! I always appreciate some classic country!
You da man! Thanks for posting this. I've always been a huge fan of the Bakersfield Sound.
That guy put Bakersfield on the map
A band i played bass with in the late 70s, this was our break song. I've learned some of it on pedal steel and need to learn the rest. Have wanted to learn it in guitar, so now I can. Thank you.
Apache is fantastic. Joy Division also have a great one, Incubation. Phantom by the Sisters of Mercy almost counts, but it's heavily dependent on the drums.
The Clap and Mood For A Day by Steve Howe in Yes, always a blistering fave!! Awesome video Adrian!!
Excellent playing & instruction, sir!
I kinda learned this tune from the Leo Kottke version on acoustic guitar with some cross picking. Now I can learn the 'right' way to play it! Thanks for this!
As esoteric as ever. Fabulous.

He was dating his much younger backup singer at the time, and they dueted a few tunes. Great time. Your version is fantastic. I too have a butterscotch Tele. Wish I could play as smoothly as you.
I would love to go back in time when music like this was the standard fare.
Thank you. it's the most beautiful buckaroo played on RUclips. You are a great guitarist.
What a great lesson!! As for myself, I probably have far too many favorite guitar instrumentals to pick just two or three. I could mention entire albums! But if I had to mention two, lately I've been listening to Clarence Gatemouth Brown's "Gate Walks To Board" and also his version of Pluma Davis' "Okie Dokie Stomp".
Slick. Such a good tune too.
I’ve always loved this song! I think I could die happy if I learn this one. Thanks for the video!
Hot Rod Lincoln is one of my favorite Telecaster playing sounds
Thanks for doing Buckaroo
Great player ....great teacher....thanks for the inspiration and insight....will try to do my best learning this...just love it!
These lessons are excellent! Great song choices and teaching. Thanks again, you’re really helping my interest in playing!
Flippin' Heck! I've just heard you refer to the Clarence White version of this (which I'd somehow never heard) so I headed over to Spotify to have a listen: it's incredible: the stuff he does with the B-Bender makes you feel light-headed. Keep up the good work!
AMAZING! You always nail it and bring me music I didn't even know I loved. Thank you!!!
My favs: Nashville West by The Byrds. Six Gallon Pie by The Meat Puppets. Lafayette Railroad by Little Feat. Declan by Jeff Beck (though I prefer the original Donal Lunny track), and Main Title Theme (Billy) by Bob Dylan.
Meat Puppets, yeah... Good to see them mentioned for once, as they seem to be quite underrated, generally.
the steel guitar part you played on that tele is dynamite.
I hope you take this as the compliment it is intended to be, the first time I heard your English dialect and then witnessed you proceed to rip country licks like that kinda' threw me for a moment. Cheers and thanks for sharing your amazing abilities
Holy Smokes! That's the best I have ever heard it played. You da man!!!
I see your Mosrite style guitar in the back..... with that said, all Ventures tracks are awesome !!!!!!! Don Rich was great and Buckaroo is one of the best. A lot of folks don't know that Nokie Edwards of the Ventures got his start playing with Buck Owens. Keep up the great work.
Freddie King’s Hideaway is a cracking instrumental. SRV did some great ones too, like Rude Mood.
yes, both classics!
@@acpg and this is a great lesson Adrian - cheers.
Ahhhh i love this song, thank you!
Alabama Jubilee by Jerry Reed. Right there with the Buckaroo song.
Great instructions as usual!
I really love your instructional content. I think you're a great teacher
Truely amazing Thanks
Adrian, I'm loving these country lessons. Keep it up !! An all time fav of mine - Chet Atkin's Mr Sandman !!
Yes, love a bit of Chet. Maybe I should attempt some - very challenging for me though!
@@acpg We understand! ;)
@@acpg Thanks for your reply. Keep well mate :-)
Anything by Hank Marvin! The tone... Oh the tone!
Thanks for all the great lessons Adrian, always inspirational. I've always loved Pipeline by the Chantays, the Shadows Atlantis and Jeff Beck's Another Place. (Also Becks Bolero, Clapton's Steppin Out, Hideaway, the bootleg of Hendrix playing Electric Ladyland, aargh can't stop thinking of them now.)
Outstanding sir
Great lesson as always. An underrated guitar instrumental that would fit this series nicely would be “My Kimono” by Polvo. Not the most popular but just some of the most sublime guitar work out there.
Awesome band!
Yes, Polvo!
love them
Love these early electric guitar instrumentals... fascinating stuff and Brilliantly played:)
Hi Adrian, thanks for doing this. Don Rich has so many great guitar parts in multiple songs….classic Telecaster songs. Would love for you to do Tiger By the Tail or Love’s Gonna Live Here. There are some wonderful solos in those 2.
Thank you for the video. Excellent work, sounds just like the record.
beautiful! I'm gonna steal this one. I know there are so many great Tele tunes out there. Hot Property by Heads Hands & feet (Albert Lee) Orange Blossom Special by Johnny Hiland. Sugarfoot Rag - Junior Brown, to name 3.
Man Of Mystery by the Shadows. That's an unbeatable instrumental :-)
Yes ! Must try and do some Shadows!
@@acpg The Savage is my fav'.
This is so cool that you do this stuff, I love Don Rich's playing. I have a Tele with a B-bender so I use it for those B string bends. It works really great for those whole step bends.
Adrian has good taste. Also an excellent player.
Really enjoy your channel!
Thank you.
Thank You so Much
I learned how to play country from a stately English gentleman. Very nice work as always dude, thanks! By the way, Misirlou probably my favorite electric guitar instrumental.
Congrats on 200k subs. Thanks for the great content.
Great Video. Could you do a lesson on any Echo and the Bunnymen Song at some point?
Workin' on it!
@@acpg how about bedbugs and ballyhoo??
@@acpg The Puppet!
@@acpg please anything but Killing Moon, the band’s most overrated and most over-tutorialed song
Little Martha by the Allman Brothers is another classic instrumental on an acoustic or pedal steel. I don't think that I've ever heard it played on a Tele, but that might be interesting as well.
Sounds great!
Very complete ...nice!
Fantastic!
Awesome love this stuff!!! Exceptional talent sir, thanks for sharing!
Another fantastic video, watchable to the end. Thanks, Adrian!
In Memory of Elizabeth Reed by the Allman Brothers is a wonderful rock instrumental
Great video! Thank you
I love this tune, thanks a million!!!!
Awesome ❤ don rich ❤
You made my day! I'm a Buck Owens big fan
Not after a lesson for any of their songs. But if you like Mogwai, have a listen to Mono (they're Japanese) and D_Drive. Mono tour quite extensively. Well worth catching.
Excellent! Love it! Thank you!
Hendrix’s Villanova Junction from Woodstock.
ooh interesting and unusual choice, very good!
Great lesson

Excited to learn this!
Duane Eddy also did a version, played on a Fender 12 string electric guitar, double cd on Rhino is where you will find it.
Wonderful wonderful lesson 😊 Adrian, Grazie from Italy
Neat, precise playing. Love it.
Adrian, another great choice. You are the best!
Oh yeah. I can't wait to see the B bender in action!
