Its funny that you posted this cause I was gonna do a similar thread..... Andy Timmons is amazing, if i can ever play 1 of his songs I will be happy. The interesting thing with this is he covered the entire album of Sgt. Peppers with his 3 piece band.

So he recorded 1 guitar track for each song, so he had to mix the chord progression and the vocal lines in the one track....amazing results....

It's one of my favourite songs from him too... I wonder why this Beatles videos by him has so low quantity of views...

Posted by: JaxN4 Jan 3 2012, 04:30 PM

Hmmm...good point. I don't think that he is widely known....and perhaps the younger generation has no intrest in the beatles ya know... ??

yes, that could be the reason.. but checking his awesome playing I still can't understand it! blink.gif

Couldn't agree more.... I found the YT clip cause I was searching for Andy Timmons....not Beatles....maybe its the same for others too...

Have a look at this clip.... he goes through a full rig run down, showing you how he gets his tone.... He is an amazing player, and his tone IMO is one of the best i ever heard....

Yellow Matter Custard! I first saw this on a Modern Drummer Video I have that a drummer buddy gave to me. Not an instrumental but I thought it was worth sharing since these musicians are pretty popular in the GMC community.
