The Robben Ford Lick that Changed My Playing FOREVER
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2022
- This blazing Robben Ford lick that he plays on "Ain't Got Nothing But The Blues" was a game-changer for me. Filled with jazzy inflections, great tone and gorgeous vocabulary, I knew that this was the style of guitar playing that I needed to play from that point on.

Matt Schofield does something using the same scale and chord in 'sitting on top of the world ' fewer notes but how he throws it in just gives you the shivers
That guitar tone!!!!!!!!! ... WOW
After 30yrs as a Rock hack, never attempted a jazzy thing. So, thank you for initiating a noob... beautiful tone, and lesson.
give it a rip its great
You are the reason I wished I’d taken Music at university instead of Geography. I know where I am in the world but not on the fretboard.😞
Better than many guitar players who can't seem to find the gig on time.
Keep at it bro
@@saxmaster45 Hey Saxmaster45 I still have my Selmer C*80 alto mouthpiece from 57 years ago when I played in a stage band. We did all the big band music from the 40s. If you are still playing sax and want to here who I think was the best sax player of his generation, check out Jimmy Dorsey on the album, “The Fabulous Dorsey’s”.
@@riceflatpicking4954 life gets in the way sometimes. Widowed, retired, and just old. But still have not lost my passion for music. Unfortunately the learning curve is in a downward trend.
You can do it. I graduated a few years back with a drama degree and huge regret that I hadn’t done music. It wasn’t an easy journey but I work as a freelance guitarist and tutor these days. Keep pushing !! Believe in yourself
Thank you for including tabs, sharing and the work that went into producing this.
Thanks for letting us know your musical background and your delivery is most insightful and fantastic in a relaxed confident fashion .Love it!
Dude the tone is killer! Love Robben Ford as well. Great lesson.
Very cool. Love the chill, methodical way you broke that down. Thanks for the lesson.
Great knowledge & playing. Good tone too. Thank you for sharing!
Cool lick and great breakdown of these complicated concepts.
Fabulous lines!
This was so good and so insane! Thanks!!
Your licks are so clear. Very nice.
Great video! This lick also stunned me when I first heard it. Robben has always been a huge influence.
This is great. I love these analyses and how important a particular phrase was. I've got a few myself. I'm glad I found your channel.
Great lesson, great playing, and what a tone! I learned something from this. Thank you 🙏
This lick blew my mind too, thank you very much for the explanation!
Great lick, great player, great lesson.. thanks for sharing!
Top lesson. Thanks a lot. Love Robben Ford
Awesome class! Thanks
Sounds really good, Robben is a great combo of blues and jazz guitar, but he can rock out if he wants to.
Excellent lesson Andy thank you and that guitar is quite beautiful to look at and listen to as well
Just stumbled on the channel. Love everything about Robben. Subscribed!
Gorgeous tone, brilliant lick! 🙏
What a great lesson!! Thank you!
The very strong point of Robben Ford is his "DYNAMIC" that enhance every notes that he plays. I was stunned to hear him playing. Cherrs from Indonesia.
Beautiful tone.
Robben continues to fly under the radar, which is crazy. He should get WAY more recognition.
Robben never played anything memorable. Nobody whistles a Robben Ford tune.
@@slicksalmon6948 That's because whistling doesn't sound like an old tele through a cranked Dumble. If it did, we wouldn't NEED guitars.
Great presentation of guitar instruction! Thx
Great amazing player and instructor. Truly masterclass!❤🙏
Wonderful lesson!
Wow, that's a cool lick to emulate. Thanks
I have too many saved videos of guitar techniques and lessons of outstanding Guitarist on RUclips, but I've finally found the right channel for me and what I'm trying to achieve in my play. I'm definitely watching everyday.
Oh yes, this tune was my gateway into jazz blues. Turned me on to John Scofield.
Thank you from New Zealand!well presented, great teaching. Cheers I’ve subscribed and following
Great Job, thank you so much!
Clear thinking. Love it.
i love that recording! and that lick too!!
I just now stumbled across this channel for the first time. I like your teaching style. I like your choice of content. I like your playing style. I like your D'Angelico. I am your newest subscriber! How the hell do you get almost 55K views and only 9.2K subscribers? This stuff is GOLD!
Smokin Andy. I first heard him on a sound system in a record store in Texas in 1982 with the Yellow Jackets. I was like a hooked, been a fan since. You play very well and love the guitar. I have two of them myself, great instruments. Thanks for the great videos.
Wonderfully well explained
that's a very interesting analysis, thanks
Nice lesson with good production too. Seems to me that Robben used to play hipper, jazzier lines back in the 80's and 90's. 😊
Love Robben Ford.
Mr. Dacoulis....most appreciative for this one...too good providing the chords voicing plus grid display....nice...as well as theory ...very kind thanks for sharing...in debt for slowing it down ..
Great job!! Thank you for this!
That is indeed Robben Ford...Nice job. Robben is my favorite Blues/Jazz player.
Great, as usual. Many thanks !
Thank you so much !
Yes!!! Great video Andy! 👍
Thank you Carlos!
Beautiful playing, very good lesson. Been a working musician all my life but never stop learning. It never ends. Played this great tune many times, but not with some of those voicings. Thanks
Thanks!
One of my favorite guitarists. Came across his music in the late 80's. An early album that Robben is featured on is Tom Scott's- 'Tom cat' album from the mid 70's.
Robben is one of the GOATS. A channel that dissects and teaches Robbens stuff? im in! awesome work dude
👌🏻excellent Andy!!!
More of a mature style. Exactly. Amazing lesson and thanks so much for not playing that one played out blues box over and over again. That is so tired. Again, amazing lesson.
Wonderfully explained and nicely played too! Subscribed;-)
That's sweet, I respect your honesty
Hi all - you can check out my Modern R&B Chord Study here: ruclips.net/video/jgdk3mstEDw/видео.html
Hi Andy, Great video lesson! Thank you! Where can I get the backing track to that song? (Ain't Got Nothin' But The Blues) ?
Excellent lesson well explained my head is exploding love it..
Dave Workman sent me here to see this !
I owe him more coffees...
You are a gifted teacher
Superb analysis of the theory behind the lines!🙌🏻🙌🏻🍎
This is great! And wow.. I have a lot to learn 😳
Beautifully explained Andy.
such a cool chord progression
Very nice sound
I was on my way to narrowing down the online RUclips guitar classes, but now I just added one more guitar player thanks for making the decision hard for me. I appreciate everything that I've seen and heard from you so far. 👍
What a great comment! Thank you so much. I'm happy that you enjoy the content.
Great setup story❤
Beautiful. Great work. Robben's playing is SO attractive!
World class playing foreal!
Great album. Ford's tone on Talk to your Daughter is beautiful
I hear your discovery of Robben Ford, and.. there could be my face in your video :)
that record came out and blues guitar changed for all of us.
Indeed, many people have told me the same thing!
The golden touch right there.
That’s Beautiful D Angelico. Had a 335 style one that was turquoise. Beautiful guitar. Played it at one gig and I was tuning every 5 seconds.
love that record stil blast it out at work when i get a chance
Sometimes you feel you are stuck in a particular rut and every time you pick up the guitar you play the stuff in different places on the neck! I find playing more complex chord sequences that change keys and then trying to solo over the loop until you know it inside out helps you discover new things.
Great easy to understand video.
totally! I hate being in ruts. Sometimes just trying things completely opposed to your typical style is another good way to get outside of those ruts. I was disappointed when I went to your channel that you aren't the woman in your pfp lol... Is that a Bond girl or something? BUT, you have a Fender Lead 2! I was considering getting one over a strat player. Should I, or would you say just go for the strat? I already have a Casino and SG if that matters. Also the PRS silversky is supposed to be pretty nice... choices, choices.
@@JunkBondTrader Ha! Hi! That’s Britt Eckland! She was indeed a Bond girl.
Regarding Lead 2, it’s a beautiful guitar if you already have a Strat but it’s pretty bright sounding and has only 4 voicings with the two pickups. The Lead 3 has 2 humbuckers and 7 voicings. The Player Strats are excellent, same neck is on the Lead series, but what kills them for me personally is the 2 point bridge and Pau Ferro instead of Rosewood on some models. I’d say try them all out if you can. Let your ears decide!
Regards…
Talk to your daughter was one of - if not the first - blues album I really listened to and for a a long time I was a bit disappointed that not all blues albums sounded like that.
OMG! Your guitar sounds like "Beautiful Smooth Pop Rocks! What amazing tone you have SOOO MUCH kNOWLEDGE!
Very cool!
That guitar instructor that can teach you anything - Andy
absolutely gorgeous guitar and playing too ;)
Nice!
Γεια σου από Ελλάδα Άντυ!!! Πολύ χάρηκα που πέτυχα το κανάλι σου!!!
Thanks man. Nice lick. So I subscribed.
Thank you!
One of the best lessons I've ever watched on RUclips. There's just enough playing and talking to deliver true understanding to the viewer. Thanks!
Agree
Seriously, will be checking out more of his videos as a result
Same here. I hate videos where it’s just playing or just talking. You need both. You need to explain it AND show it.
New to this channel. You’re a stellar player. Awesome tone, great feel.
Thank you!!
You changed my guitar playing life with this video. Is there a complete transcription of all content in this video? I got the opening lick. Tasty is an understatement...
Hello - glad that you enjoyed the video! All the notes of the opening solo are available for download on my website if you are interested. Thanks
ωραια δουλεια..μπραβο φιλε....
Robben plays outside and sounds inside..( that’s the trick,ay..?)…
I play inside… but sound outside…WAYYYY outside..!😩🤣
Thanks for this..!👍🏼
I totally agree, Scott Henderson plays outside and sounds outside, lol. Still love both.
Great lesson. Perfect for music school graduates with 20 plus years of practice and experience.
Identical to my experience when I first heard Robben Ford and the same album.
very cool
Good one.... I think that augmented ideas are very cool and many guys don't even think to use them except in a limited way ... nice blues lines too....
Thank you! Yes, the augmented ideas can lend themselves to a variety of colorful sounds, I agree.
@@AndyDacoulis Just subscribed.... thanks
You said it. Blues is great to learn the guitar, but if you want to move forward, jazz is the ticket. 👍👌😊
Great information thank you for sharing. I didn’t quite understand where the cord progression goes after the altered C ?
Whoooooweee that run at 0:23 is it!!
Subscribed in literally less than 10 seconds of this video starting.
Really excellent stuff man.
That progression reminded me of something Tonino Horta might do. Like a bluesy version of "Mountain Flight". You just surpassed "Scuttle Buttin'" on the 'to learn' list.
Very well described and a great sound 👏. I think that Larry Carlton did something similar with his solo on Kid Charlemagne - sounds like it anyway.
I love your music and what you are doing here. I happened to see an interview with Robben Ford where he said that he learned jazz chords from the Mickey Baker jazz guitar books, which I think shows in some of his choices (e.g., the Am11 to A♭7♭5, which is one of the first things we learn in that book). Guess Who guitarist Randy Bachman was a student of Lenny Breau and Breau used the Mickey Baker books in teaching Bachman. You can hear the jazzy influence in "Undun" (a.k.a., "She's Come Undone").
That book was a staple in my early days of learning jazz.
Hey Andy, I really like your guitar, the tone is killer and it's really good looking. Nice playing too. Just wanted to throw that out there
Thank you!
