  • Hey all! Now, for those of you who watched my video yesterday, no, I don't have my voice back, haha. This tutorial was some a few days ago before I lost it. Can't speak AT ALL today. brutal. No tutorial tomorrow I don't think, haha. However, today we have a walkthrough of the great Godzilla by Buck Dharma and Blue Oyster Cult with solo included.
    Hope you enjoy and find it helpful.
    Cheers, Kelly.

    Kelly. Your amazing. When you go to sleep at night. Know that you have done a wonderful thing with your life. Teaching us Baby Boomers songs we grew up with.

    Buck Dharma was/is such a tasty player. So underrated and often overlooked when discussing influencial players of that era.

    That bend note at 2:59 is such a cool addition. Very haunting

    I caught BOC at the Wild West in Tucson Az. I got good and ripped and when the big inflatable Godzilla came bounding thru the crowd, I jumped the rail, did a somersault on the stage and stood up right at the mic with B-D just in time to scream the lines “helpless victims on subway train….”
    The bouncers were talking to girls stage left and did not react right away. Buck Dharma was looking at me with a very curious look and carried on the show as a duo until I was thrown out by two bodybuilders.

    The ‘Some Enchanted Evening’ version is the best. The lyrics to this tune always stirred my imagination. That and the guitars are what make it such a great song.

      I agree. I love that version. So much better than the ETL version IMO.

    BOC was the first rock, band I seen in concert. I Saw them at Purdue's "Elliot Hall Of Music" . I believe it was back in 86.
    I don't remember who was warming up but it was a awesome show. Thanks for another killer lesson. 👍

    Haven’t seen BOC since the late 70’s, they were always touring back then, along with Aerosmith, Uncle Ted, and Yes.

    Nice one Kelly Dean. Great opening riff. Was lucky enough to catch them many years ago in Glasgow during their Spectres tour. Godzilla was in the setlist of course. Lesson much appreciated.

  • @rexxengineering8333
    @rexxengineering8333 10 дней назад

    Don’t know about the studio version, but when they played this live back in the day, the riffs were all done by Eric Bloom and Allen Lanier. Buck was doing high tension wire sound effects and lead fills for the entire song. It’s very difficult to do decent live covers of most BOC songs because they often had three or more distinct guitar parts going.

    Awesome tip on the long delay used, I will work on that heavy delay riff on my 5 string bass to my looper and play the guitar parts over top.
    As I slowly get better at guitar it is exponentially becoming more rewarding.
    Thanks Kelly Dean

    Brilliant track and such a great economical solo! Ghost’s, Tobias Forge lists BOC and Uriah Heep as major influences which proves the music is still very much relevant today. Thanks for sharing this with us and for all your great posts! It would be great to see you break down Frampton’s third solo from Do You Feel Like I Do one day 😊

    I wrote a song in the late 1980s then realized a decade or more later...that the melody almost exactly matched Godzilla. With that realization, though the music was nothing the same--I am happy to re-write (it). Thanks, great tune...that I should've listened more closely to, at the time.

      Me too. I have been playing this per another RUclips video just recently. It’s such an excellent song. Makes me laugh. The bottle neck slide up and down to sound like the high power tension wires coming down is the best. This power chord vibrato reminds me of Addicted to Love. Another great song to play which I’m playing this Sunday night at Connonly’s pub in NYC

    What I do to emulate the delay on the main riff was to hit all the strings with the side of my right hand. Just kind of bounce the side of your right hand on the strings.

    Here's a question. When YOU learn song after song after song, can you play all of them by memory years later? Might be a dumb question but I'm just now starting at 56 years of age. I've got about 2 dozen intros and solos I can play upon request ( I only play intros and solos because I struggle with chords). People such as yourself who can play anything makes me wonder if everything learned is recalled at will. Thanks so much! I've learned several things from you

    • @KellyDeanAllenGuitar
      @KellyDeanAllenGuitar  12 дней назад +3

      @bobbya768ra nope, haha. However anything that I have to re-learn comes back super quick. Still logged away back in the gray matter I suppose. Even complicated solos. Took 3 weeks to learn cliffs of dover by Eric Johnson originally. Just a few hours to learn it all over again.

    Hey Kelly Dean! I’ve recently been relying on your channel for learning some guitar solos and I’ve been wondering if you could make a quick tutorial on The Raven by The Alan Parsons Project, which to my knowledge has no tutorials!
