[gargano3000]

[Perputualburn]

[pacrat90]

I must say man, You can control those bends!!

[r29spatrickm92m]

[AlexiSkwisJGMetal]

THE THRILL IS GONE BB

AHAHAHAHA

NICE DUDE:)

[adge74]

would happily part with my wages to watch you play live great playing great vids keep it up

[dk4738]

that string do you use? 0.9 or 0.10?

[000Angus000]

That was gorgeous and inspiring, well done. I'd love to see a tutorial on your vibrato.Very effective camera work too, Nice one. :)

[xAcxDcx]

Where did you get that backing track from (and do you have to pay for it)???

BTW, that was amazing. Loved the whole thing.

To be honest, shredding is not my thing, and I love it when you don't do when you play blues!!!!! (No offence mate!)

[r29spatrickm92m]

@coulsonsam87 Awesome I have the candy orange one on layaway I work at a fast food place at the moment so it wont be home for 3 more months 8P by the way great playing

[IbanezRokr]

@coulsonsam87 You gonna put the nuckles in it too?

[videotaker4356]

@coulsonsam87 With the original humbucking pickups (like on the Gibson Les Paul I have) that's even better for that kind of blues songs ! I love the cover you made of this very popular song of BB King !

[TEMPA01]

Can you link to the backing track? Would love to play around with this track. Ta!

[r29spatrickm92m]

Hey Dude is that a Les Paul GT???

[ninonthatsme]

Yes, Sam, I can hear Gary and BB, but most of all I can hear Sam, playing this beautiful improvisation of The Thrill Is Gone, and it sends shivers down my spine! SOULFUL to the utmost! I'm listening to it for the third time already.

[coulsonsam87]

@ninonthatsme Thanks so much Ninon, I spend allot of time listening to Gary and bb. I'm glad you enjoyed listening to this one, i certainly enjoyed playing it.

[dimebagriffs]

@coulsonsam87 Dimebag included.

[nikgottheblues]

@coulsonsam87 I love the way your rig cuts thru the mix, not to mention the great playing. My favorite from you by far.

[nickbaldeagle01]

Joe Satriani is coming to Manchester later this year. Can't see your name in any upcoming gigs Sam. The Manchester Academy would be an ideal venue for you. Book yourself in to play and I'll bring my mate Andy. 2 tickets guaranteed to sell at the very least. I'm sure you'll fill it.

If it's good enough for Mr. Gilbert and Mr. Malmsteen, it'll be good enough for you.

[Evolution2810]

dude, do you think you could do a video of you covering brothers in arms by dire straits if you know it?

[RokinLee]

Quick question on the modes - say you're in key of C, you can play a minor pentatonic. But you mention Aeolian mode too - so would that be just be c major scale starting on a? Cheers.

[Savatage420]

is that a stock les paul because i notice is has differnet knobs

[66lespaul]

wow man, very inspiring. you should have some more tasty stuff like this, and incorporate some shredding. love you're playing dude, keep it comin!!!

[Janeymardon]

So soothing and soulful- just love it Sam Thanks. x

[BlackDiamond351]

vibrato is THE most important thing in lead playing

[MBString]

Very nice! That is so true! If you have a nice vibrato your playing is much nicer to the ear, you can play the notes right but uncontrolled vibrato ruins everything!

[SIXSTRING63]

I here a lot of Gary Moore in this tune Sam! Great playing as always and great vibrato. I hear a lot of guys with chops but a vibrato that sounds like an angry Hornet and this is a great example of how to do it right.

Mike

[twrekx]

Is that a new les paul??? Have you finally replaced the boken one? Awsome video there Sam. The son and I still watch them all

[lotem102]

[danophile07]

porn music!

[Metlhead443]

@danophile07 i think you mean music porn. this is some smooth ass blues, making me all hot and bothered

[mlord1only]

lately you are uploading some great vids! Do you do a professional music education?

[coulsonsam87]

@mlord1only Thanks mate, i took a few lessons when i began. The guy showed me how to chord around and play a few scales. Also i studied music technology at college, but that was pretty much all to do with the gear. The best guitar lessons for me were watching my favorite guitarists on youtube and playing along to blues records.

[gruveb]

Sounds a lot like old Albert King...Ever heard Personal Manager? As far as I know there's not an original recording here on youtube, just a few guys trying to make those type of sounds.

Anyway, as always, lovin' it. Great vibrato!

[jamanursula]
