sam's lesson

Today's lesson is the same song as my favorite. There's just something about The Rev. Billy G. This is one of Billy G.'s dirtiest and greasiest masterpieces from the 1996 album of the same name. No pick is used here.  This is Rhythmeen and when you kick it out in a bar there's gonna be some fun goin' down...

Today's lesson is an old James Gang tune. This one was on the album Thirds which was the last album Joe Walsh did with the band before going solo. And then on to join the Eagles. This tune isn't that hard and shouldn't take you too long to learn...

Today's lesson is from Joe Walsh's first solo album. Well, actually he was with the band Barnstorm but the album ended up being a Joe Walsh album. The name of the album was, "The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get." And the song is "Rocky Mountain Way...

In this video Justin will take you through six awesome Angus Young AC/DC style licks, close up and slow for you to check out. Then it is up to you to put them to good use. The good thing about these licks is that you could put them in any song that you wanted...

Today's lesson is an acoustic version of "Hurry Sundown" by the Outlaws. This one would be great for a summer campfire party. You could definitely wash it down with a couple of beers and everyone would be having a large time. That reminds me: I should put some campfire music on my lessons for the summer season...

In today's lesson we are going to show some more Montrose from that first album. Every song on that first album is worth learning they are great classic rock and roll tunes. Today's lesson is Rock The Nation. When you whip this one out people will be  saying wow who is that song from they will remember it but not who did it...

Today's lesson is the same song as my favorite once again. But what a great song by Montrose. This one is guaranteed to get folks excited. It's from the first Montrose album when Sammy Hagar was the vocalist. But as long as you can carry a tune you should be able to pull this one off...

Today's lesson is from Marty once again. I do think Marty is one of the best teachers on the net that I have seen. The song today is, "Signs," made famous by Tesla. The song is by the Five Man Electrical Band. Not toohard of a song but a great tune to play anywhere...

Today's lesson is a tune from Alice In Chains. It's one of their big hits and isn't really that hard to play. It does however go over well on the bar circuit. People will dance and party hard to this tune. And we all know that dancing equals drinking and that gets you another gig at the bar...

Today's lesson is an old Deep Purple song from their album "Machine Head." It is a very active song but not that tough. The only thing that might hold you back is that you need keyboards in your band for this tune. I have never been in a band with keyboards...

This interview is with one of the great guitar players of all time. At least that's the way that I see it. Joe Satriani  is one of those players that can do just about anything with the guitar. Whether it's slow, fast or in between, he is one of the best...

Today's lesson is an old, "Guess Who," song that would surely make folks dance in the bar after a few drinks. Hopefully you have someone who can sing it and sound like Burton Cummings. Always remember that in a bar you want people drinking, dancing and having a large time...
