Ratt's early albums are full of memorable riffs and sick licks. If only people could listen with their ears, not eyes... Because _glam_ or _hair metal_ bands are so hated by people who don't like their looks and 80s fashion in general.
My son and I got a chance to meet Jim Root at a gas station a few hours out from Tucson in April 2024, super nice dude. Made small talk with him, he invited us to Slipknot's "secret" show and took pictures with us. My son and I were the only ones that knew who he was and to top it off, as he was paying for his things, he saw an elderly lady coming in struggling with the door, he drops his things and runs to the door to help open it. They say that to never meet your heroes, that day made me deny that quote.
He seems like such a kind, mellow, patient gentleman. I am going to go discover this sweet lullaby called "gently" he mentions his band plays. 🤣🤣 Nestled warmly between "heretic anthem" and "left behind" on their album Iowa. lol
@@justgivenofox9543 any guitar is more comfortable for me to sit with in this position. But with a flying V, I can wrap it between my legs to the point where I can let go of my arms and it will still be in its place.
@@ipredictacatastrophe4370 Throughout the whole interview I said the same thing in my head. He really should have put it in between his legs because that's how you play a V sitting down. The only way in fact.
It's true, Corey Taylor has marketed himself as the nicest guy in metal whilst sacking people left right and centre (including Jim from Stone Sour...) Meanwhile, quietly in a corner noodling on a Telecaster is Jim who is probably the actual nicest guy in metal IMHO** for the nerds
I’d love an interview with Larry LaLonde of Primus and Possessed. His guitar work is so instantly recognizable and he’s so good at playing exactly what the song needs
When I first got a guitar in 2000, I thought "lemme try to learn some Primus stuff" and put Sailing the Seas of Cheese on and stopped trying to play for a long time cuz I had no idea what he was doing 😂 I don't know if he even acknowledges his Possessed days much
@@infinidominion he was on a Gibson show called riff lords where he sat down and showed how to play a bunch of songs, and he ended on a possessed song he wrote. Really worth it to look that episode up
great call, larry is a very amazing guitarist and a personal favorite. him and herb are unfortunately over shadowed often by claypool but if you know you know i guess.
I remember watching Matt Sweeney years ago sweating in a room interviewing Josh Homme and found it fascinating as you were vibing on a sheer love of guitar and asking questions normal interviews wouldn't even think of, so glad to see the interviews are back and going strong on this channel! 🤘
So glad this shows back ! Not really a big slip knot fan but I am a big JR fan! Dude is a genuinely good human and such a humble superstar ! . Could listen to him talk music for days
This is very good. I’m not really a fan of slip not and wasn’t familiar with this guy but I love guitar and most types of rock. Very cool, guy seems really cool and down to earth and a great player. I love hearing how professional musicians got to where they are and what their influences were. Very cool
Love James Root and Slipknot and Guitar. In my opinion learning the seven modes are totally worth it and will unlock many things over time . Overlaying everything you already knew on guitar in relation to all 7 modes . Ex. Crazy train and Miracle Man are in f# minor (aeolian) which makes A your Ionian or major root and access to the rest of the 6 modes. When shifting the minor to A your Ionian would end up on C and you could play with songs like Ain't talking bout love Van halen or Heading out to the highway Judas Preist. May the doors swing open for all , the world needs us all . Peace from WA
Jim has always been one of my fav members of the Knot just because of how down to earth he is. I wish I would have been more into the band when Paul was alive (knew about them but really got into them with subliminal verses) as I am a bass player. Still tho Jim has been an inspiration, and I appreciate him taking the time to sit down for this, so thanks Jim!
I really enjoyed the layout of this interview, a little bit of guitar but some great wisdom on how to collaborate with other musicians. A refreshing down to earth conversation.
For theory nerds, at 6:25: He's playing F Lydian (if it were in E Standard tuning, I'll just make this entire comment as if it were in E Standard). The next shape is G Mixolydian. From there would be A Aeolian or natural minor. Basically his teacher was showing him how to play all the notes through the fretboard in the key of C Major/A Minor through the modes which is super helpful. Also, I've covered over 4 albums' worth of Jim's parts and taught lessons on many of them. If anyone in Jim's camp somehow sees this, would love to pick his brain on Slipknot parts specifically.
For sure! I’m actually going to be doing a lesson on my channel outlining all of the modes in that key and how to connect them like he does with those two if that’s of interest to you!
There's not a lot of musicians actually want to meet. But I got to say Jim seems like he's good stuff and would be super fun to hang with. The way he talks about giving a song to a band and have it at molded into something else is something that I've always done with my band and he's always been for the best.
Not really know what it is but that channel has some authenticity I been drawn to from the early days. So refreshing honestly, still kick ass. Stay true Boss
Love these interviews. It’s always cool to see how other people make their journey into becoming musicians and learning their craft. It’s so relatable as a player.
if this is not cool, i dont know what is...what an incredible humble person James seems to be, the kinda dude you really want to sit down with and have a guitar geek chat with, EPIC !!!!!!!!
This is great! Hope we get some more fret12 playthroughs for the new and even older stuff. Would be a instant purchase. Thanks #4, enjoy it man you guys kill it!!
It’s funny that Jim is always correcting people when they play. Shows how good he really is. He’s never rude about it either. He so good natured and kind.
Jim, I'm assuming your teacher was Michael Curry? I never knew he was your teacher, I just thought you were in Atomic Opera with him. He taught me at Ye Olde Guitar Shoppe too when I was around 13-14 years old. He went through a divorce and was on the phone with his wife. I showed up to my lesson and he pointed to you to give me a lesson. You asked what I liked and I said Megadeth. So you taught me the intro to Tornado of Souls, which had just been released. I think you were the one who taught me about natural harmonics from that song. I remember thinking, damn I wish this guy would be my teacher because I was picking up what you were teaching faster - you also had crazy long hair back then.
I also took lessons from Michael. I was right around that same age. I think it was around 93 probably. He would have me go next door to Kum&Go i think it was and get him a coffee before my lesson sometimes 😂. Just read the rest of your comment, wow that's awesome!
@@gilmourdimegates That’s cool, I’m not sure what the store was but Michael would walk me next door to use their copy machine to copy the tab out of magazines. I was rocking a black Charvette bought from the store.
@@atomlow was he using a little Dean Markley amp when you were there? He had copied some exercise type tabs from Paul Gilbert and Vinnie Moore that he had me practicing.
@@gilmourdimegates I remember those amps! Yeah I think he was. One day I came to lessons and he had a Jackson soloist with the lightning strike paint job. I was impressed being a huge Megadeth fan at the time. Those were the days.
I was lucky enough to poop in the stall next to Jim in Dallas airport back in 2017. Super nice guy chatted while we were both on the toilet then let me shake his hand after we were done. Very humble and down to earth
i've never been the biggest slipknot fan but this dude absolutely rules. Shreds, is humble, writes insane rifs and just has a great outlook on music and guitar. Maybe I need to go give them another spin.
Jim is a complete legend! He is probably the ONE Dude I would have on my list of those I must meet before I die. He just loves music and it's form so much. Having a true love of music and that fact that this dude seems like just a straight up nice guy makes him truly the best.
I remember seeing the first episode with Tosin and the level in skill was so great that I never watched another interview here again. This is far more balanced and shows that the interviewer knows what he’s doing. Tosin threw so many things out of the ordinary that really no one knew what he was doing. I’m sorry I was so dismissive. I feel bad about that. Thank you Jim for allowing him to shine here.
Totally on board with Jim about being a band person. Writing and producing on your own loses out on that collaborative element that for me is intrinsic in band music. I think i will always call myself a "band guy" even if that is becoming more and more uncommon as of late. Good talk!!!
Wow. It’s awesome that y’all got Jim to give that deep of an explanation about the scale run. You can tell how much that trickles into his playing, and it seems to be his go-to for noodling. Awesome to get the break down so that I can give it a try
Jim is so interesting when it comes to the guitars he is using.. he started playing with strats and teles..and now you see him with guitars I wouldn't even think of it to play -pretty much - extreme metal.
congrats on the Hard Quartet record, Dude! can we get a Malkmus Guitar Moves episode, so he can show us all why & how we’ll never sound like him? I wondered why there’s not been new Jicks music out by now
Came across Guitar Moves first just looking up Josh Homme interviews, and been a fan of this show ever since - I love that it gets down to really base level licks without being "lessony" and Jim Root has to be the most down to earth rock star ever.
I wasn’t expecting to see Jim Root playing Ratt but hell yes
Lay it down is one of the great riffs.Warren is amazing.
Ratt's early albums are full of memorable riffs and sick licks. If only people could listen with their ears, not eyes... Because _glam_ or _hair metal_ bands are so hated by people who don't like their looks and 80s fashion in general.
Kerry king is the most random guitarist who just plays anything
You’d think he would have learned to play by now but nope
That brought such a smile to my face and I was like "yeah RATT, I like RATT too"
@@WillS-pl8wg Such a great song. Back for More, You're in Love, Body Talk. Loved that band.

@@SkoobySnack420 you must suck to be around.
Im from des moines and have met most of em but damn, Paul would talk your ear off about nothing at all
Hey hey! Tucson! That’s where I’m at
Thats awesome. You can tell Jim would never fit in that stereotype. Super down to earth guy
Jim - "yea man, grab whatever you want". Dude that's so nice you let him pick anyone of your guitars to jam on.
Jim is the definition of cool. No ego, all music and his craft.
hahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahah
everyone has an ego, its just a matter of how you use it. whether its for selfish reasons or for something greater than you.

I love Jim the most in Slipknot
@@Fisgrisen and Joey
Choosing a flying V and proceeding to sit down during the interview is a pro move
Flying V is the most comfortable shape to play sitting down. If you put it between your legs, as a guitar should be put.
@@ipredictacatastrophe4370isn’t the Jaguar like that too? Or is it the Jazzmaster?
@@justgivenofox9543 any guitar is more comfortable for me to sit with in this position. But with a flying V, I can wrap it between my legs to the point where I can let go of my arms and it will still be in its place.

Meanwhile, quietly in a corner noodling on a Telecaster is Jim who is probably the actual nicest guy in metal
IMHO** for the nerds
@@vvessel_ He told me you'd say that.
Dave Grohl: Hold my baby
Here is a man from a million dollar metal band on a 55k channel. Jim is great. And so was the interview.
He did an interview and backstage hang with Stay metal Ray a few years ago when dude only had a few thousand subs. Awesome guy
He gets alot of views for 55k subscribers. Hundreds of thousands on some videos. Not bad.
What if Jim Root only agreed to be on because Keith Richards did it?
Josh Homme’s episode was one of the best
Josh Homme being the only guitarist you know?
You should get out more.
I’d love an interview with Larry LaLonde of Primus and Possessed. His guitar work is so instantly recognizable and he’s so good at playing exactly what the song needs

Yes!

Still the "you know what I mean" guy and I love it
lol thats true
What do you mean?
@@the6ig6adwolfyou know what I mean
That was also Paul
Jim is the chillest guitar player in the galaxy, period.
definitely, especially when someone speaks over you in the background
I legitimately like Jim , humble , super talented and great to interview.
Jim being so generous with his guitars is testament to his character. He’s always been such a phenomenal person (and guitarist).
The most talented member of Slipknot imo.
Joey was up there too!
@@apj8474 Yup he sure was.
He seems like such a nice guy!
The way he was describing how to connect the shapes and his approach made a lot of sense to me!
Thanks for sharing!
Easily my favorite series on YT.
Jim is a gem of a musician and artist. One of my favorite guitar players. So glad you were able to sit with him for this.
He really looks lika a down to earth and nice guy. Refreshing to see a guy who dosn´t show off but kindá show his flaws. I liked this alot. Thanks!
I FUCKING LOVE GUITAR MOVES thank you dude
Absolutely love this interview. It feels like you're sitting with old friends and discussing life.
So glad this shows back ! Not really a big slip knot fan but I am a big JR fan! Dude is a genuinely good human and such a humble superstar ! . Could listen to him talk music for days
Great interview! I'd love to see Larry LaLonde or Mark Ribot on here!
This is such a genuine conversation about the love of music and guitar. Well done.
This is very good. I’m not really a fan of slip not and wasn’t familiar with this guy but I love guitar and most types of rock. Very cool, guy seems really cool and down to earth and a great player. I love hearing how professional musicians got to where they are and what their influences were. Very cool
Jim Root really is the man. So down to earth and creatively-minded
Great interview. Really one of Jims best in alot of ways.
Jim was great, you should get Brent Hinds!
Hell yes brents an underrated genius
Get him!
He'll do some country swing stuff and act like he's not even trying while making a dirty b hind joke. Should be awesome
fuck yeah
Dirty B. Hinds would be UNREAL 🤘🔥

Anytime Jim Root does a video it is a must watch.
Jim is just the best. He seems like a blast to hang out with. Just listen to records or go riding for a bit.
Cheezus, been waiting for a video with my favorite guitarist for so long..
Matt Sweeney is a gift to mankind
Very much a kid in a candy store vibe when he meets these musicians.
I really enjoyed the layout of this interview, a little bit of guitar but some great wisdom on how to collaborate with other musicians. A refreshing down to earth conversation.
I love Jim because he's a huge nerd on certain topics like guitars and motor vehicles
Yeah I remember a videos from him, telling his motorcycles collection is like a living wikipedia.
For theory nerds, at 6:25: He's playing F Lydian (if it were in E Standard tuning, I'll just make this entire comment as if it were in E Standard). The next shape is G Mixolydian.

you: i was 14 years old

maybe he believed in reincarnation
His 14th year on the planet would make him 13 years old.
@@JackieChandler69 Does he not go back and say 13 -14 years old. I think maybe he was giving a round about time.
I could be wrong. Good comment.

Jim is the coolest guys ever and a fantastic musician. Love both these guys
Jim Roots such a cool layed back dude!!!🎸😎
14:25 onwards that is so brilliantly written. Oftentimes its not the most famous songs that define bands
Jim Root superstar nothing wrong with you fumbling a little its shows that your human !!!!!! Love so many guitar riffs always . Rock On !
One of the nicest dudes playing in one of the meanest, scariest bands on earth. So awesome, Jim is a legend.
Love these interviews. It’s always cool to see how other people make their journey into becoming musicians and learning their craft. It’s so relatable as a player.
Have always loved Jim. Been my favorite member since 99.

had a teacher that would smack my hand every time I screwed up, had to quit , he may of not meant nothing by it but it was on my last nerve .
Not the biggest Slipknot fan but cracking interview there and what a humble bloke. lovely to see - keep these coming they are fantastic!

God, a Roy Clark Guitar Moves episode would have been the goatest of goats.
Yes! Or Glen Campbell. Or jerry Reed 😊
so refreshing to see such talent imbued with such humility
Very generous of Jim to show us this stuff. I found the breakdown of gently really interesting
I was lucky enough to poop in the stall next to Jim in Dallas airport back in 2017. Super nice guy chatted while we were both on the toilet then let me shake his hand after we were done. Very humble and down to earth
Now thats a story ! Shooting the shit with Jim Root ! lol
Thank you Matt. Excellent episode. And thanks for the Hard Quartet album. I 'm really enjoying it.
I'm not familiar with this guy, but he seems pretty chill and humble. Great interview.
You can always tell someones character by how many telecasters they own.
i've never been the biggest slipknot fan but this dude absolutely rules. Shreds, is humble, writes insane rifs and just has a great outlook on music and guitar. Maybe I need to go give them another spin.
Jim is such a cool dude. Miss him with Stone Sour.
Been waiting for this one 🤘🏽
I have never been a Slipnot fan but that was incredible...but now I will listen...what a lovely modest man. Hats off all!
This video has helped me so much. The way James described the shapes and how he interprets it. Thanks! 🤘
This is the best musician interview I've seen in at least a decade. I love hearing what went down here.
Que cara absurdo esse Jim Root. Toco guitarra há 10 anos por conta desse cara, e até hoje continua sendo minha maior referência!

Thank you for doing this! Jim Root has been my favorite guitar player for the longest time. Such a badass guy!
This guy is amazing, historic even. Love dudes that just get down and dirty with everyone and talk the biz. Jim's amazing.
This is such a gem. Thank you both for your service 🙏
I love the part around 15:13 where you can hear Jim's pick.
Love that he gave props to Roy Clark. Beast of a guitarist that looked like the farmer down the road.
Never thought I’d see Jim play master of puppets and just effortlessly nails it
Jim goes deep on this one! Good to hear about how they collaborate on songs. Great episode!
Always liked James Root's signature guitars , very stripped down yet very cool , also love his Flying-V ! Hells yesh !

Love James his take on the process is awesome. Zero Ego he seems to love the process. we do need more Stone Sour will Admit.
Humility of the man is amazing
This is one of the best guitar channels on You Tube. Love to see Matt and Dean Ween II. lololol
I just want to know if Dean's couch is OK...
Jim's that kind of guy you call to help you move and it's no problem for him.
I used to be that way till my same cousin moved 35 times , DO NOT CALL ME TO HELP MOVE ! Im no longer that guy . lol
I missed this series :-( So glad it's back
Maybe my favorite episode of the show, excellent interview and insight.
Can we just take a moment and appreciate Jim’s hair genetics. Dudes hair is thick and healthy as hell for a 50+ dude
