Queen - Somebody To Love - Guitar Tutorial by Brian May

Показать описание
In 1983, Star Licks Productions created a series of instructional videos featuring well-known musicians demonstrating their unique musical styles and techniques. The portfolio debuted with a wide-ranging group of players including Steve Lukather of Toto, Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath), Al McKay (Earth, Wind & Fire) guitarist Albert Lee, and acclaimed guitarist/educator Wolf Marshall.

In this video, Brian discusses his equipment and techniques, and demonstrates a number of his guitar solos. He covers both famous and lesser known Queen songs, including Brighton Rock, Tie Your Mother Down, Somebody To Love, It's Late, Dead On Time, Put Out The Fire, It's A Hard Life, Keep Yourself Alive, Jesus, Father To Son and Crazy Little Thing Called Love.

The programme was produced and directed by Mark Freed and Robert Decker, and recorded at Sarm West, London, England. The video was originally released in 1983 and later reissued in 1993/4.

Note from Brian :

Mark initially came to me with an idea for making audio cassettes of guitarists explaining their techniques. It seemed a good one and we arranged to meet and make it happen. But I said ... if we’re going to the trouble of recording this stuff, why not film it as well, and make it into a Video Cassette ?! So we made a ‘pilot’ video, and people liked it, and this became the template for a whole collection of videos which, I think, stand up very well to this day.

Maybe we should do an update ?!

About my new YouTube channel:
The official BRIAN MAY CHANNEL is designed to carry anything on film or video that relates to me [Brian May] outside Queen - to replace all the bits and pieces of music video that are currently around out there with new highest quality versions, and fill in the gaps; and to cover under one umbrella the other areas that I operate in … Stereoscopy, Astronomy, and my animal welfare work through my charity the Save Me Trust. Each of these areas will have their own playlist on the Brian May channel. But the intended pivot of it all is the entirely new part that we’re calling Brian Talks. This section will carry current ‘to the camera’ comments, updates and communications, and I’m hoping it will be a proper ‘voice’ for me, an outlet, as well as a way of glueing together the rest of the channel.

Queen were so ahead of its time that Brian was doing “tutorial” videos long before they became trendy. One word describes him: Boss.

The funny thing is, even with Brian himself teaching us his solos, it's impossible to even come close to sounding like him. Not only are his solos hard to interpret, but the "soul" they have is absolutely unique and impossible to copy.

“Everything is flat out”. Ladies and gentleman, the Queen philosophy.

Oh Brian. You beautiful, beautiful man. Your life’s work will absolutely go on and on, but I’m sure there’s room (and appetite) for more.

There’s no other way to describe Brian May besides a GOD. An astrophysicist, a guitar/rock LEGEND + tutorials??? Omg

That vibrato on the bends is what gives his playing that May tone, along with the "screamy setting" as he calls it.

Brian is esentially a genius. Even tho i can play this solo after tutorial i still can't get sound even close to the original. His style is so unique
