Michael Angelo Batio -Lesson on arpeggios with tablature.avi

From speed kills 2, the number one shredder of all time (as he was ranked by some guitar magazine I don’t remember), Michael Angelo Batio shows some cool arpeggio licks that mostly require fast sweep picking, hammers and pull offs, and alternate picking. Tablature is shown for the two examples and they are also played at two tempos, slow and fast.

Xavier Rudd & Izintaba “Time to Smile” 2010 Koonyum Sun Album World Tour

Time To Smile by Xavier Rudd and Izintaba. Directed by Jeremy Fisher. From the upcoming album Koonyum Sun, street date – Week of April 19th, 2010

This video features some beautiful slide guitar from singer/songwriter, Xavier Rudd paired with the heavy grooving bass of bassist Tio Moloantoa and punctuated with the drums and percussion of Andile Nqubezelo – which truly helps to round out the fusion of African and Australian folk sounds. These former members of the late African Reggae singer, Lucky Dube’s band have rounded out the sound to smooth folky African Grooves you hear now.

Xavier, Tio and Andile formed a bond that extended beyond their musical respect for each other in the summer of 2008 at Austrias Nuke festival. This relationship like their musical tastes reflects a passion for unifying culture, sound and understanding. Moving away from the heavier edged sound that he pursued on Dark Shades of Blue, Xavier is back to his up beat, hip swaying sound that has been his main stay on previous recordings and is now backed by the tour de force of Tio and Andile as- Xavier Rudd and Izintaba

50 Rock Guitar Licks You MUST Know – Lick #22: Rolling Hammers – Chris Buono

A great way to light up a solo is with a fiery legato run like this one. Applying a light touch and a few pick attakcs for good measure, you too can whiz your way through three note-per-string patterns like legato legends Allan Holdsworth and Joe Satriani. This four-bar tour-de-force is derived from the C and Ab Lydian scales and is inspired by Satch’s stellar soloing in the title track from his “Flying in a Blue Dream” CD.

Electric Violin – Cliffs of Dover – (CLEAN cover)

My name is Eddie Carlson, and this is the first violin cover of Eric Johnson’s epic “Cliffs of Dover.” I hope you enjoy my performance.

I am playing a Yamaha SV-200 through a Boss ME-50 effects pedal.

The audio/video sync is a little off…I think it just has something to do with being uploaded to youtube because there’s no similar latency when the actual video file plays on my computer. Oh well.

I don’t have the sheet music for this song, so I can’t send it to you – sorry. Check out the guitar tabs, they’re posted online everywhere, that’s how I learned it.

May 9 2010: I didn’t realize I could change the title after posting a video. When I first made the video, I jammed “guitar hero” in the title to score views. I definitely agree, Eric Johnson is amazing and it’s a cover of his song, not a cover form guitar hero. I give you…the new title, EJ fans rejoice! : )
