[riomaxio]

@ Daycron66 LOL.. This is great great guitar playing..NO showing off here. Just real emotion and music.. beautiful stuff..

[1playermod1]

damn,how i love blues and rock...

[BlackBearFilms]

Gorgeous. I'd like to know what kind of dickwad "disliked" this.

[Bluesful1]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[david071066]

Unreal! Timing, phrasing, feel almost perfect. Love the fiesta red strat too.

[vinnothelizard]

why the face like a well sucked orange!!

[lenaspieltblues]

Thanks!

[BeatleUniversity]

Perfection!

[HumblePie76]

Does this come with printed tab?

[Dan99Lee]

@HumblePie76 that would be good, did you find out if there are any? ive been stealing as much as i can from this vid!

[evanfrmheaven]

When I was a kid, this is one of the videos that I went looking for, the other one was Cornell Dupree!

[TimBirkenholz]

thats the most ugliest strat i've ever seen. Nice playing tho

[Dogheadj]

@TimBirkenholz Looks like a '60's Fiesta Red Fender Stratocaster. Very loveable (check out Gary Moore, "Red House" Wembley for another intro to this guitar). By the way Gary, RIP.

[1FenderGibson]

This guy can play the blues like it should be played. More people should know this man's name!!

[hhbluesfan]

Ronnie Earl is such a magnificent guitar player--love the jazz influence and SO clean sound of his playing and setup.

[KeepOnBluesin]

brilliant!

[DarkSideOfTheMoon991]

That's soul personified.

[graemewoller]

Holy Crap! Diggin' that. So's he, by the look on his face. :)

Great dynamic control.

[Machinka]

If you can't get into the blues, then you must have a hole in your soul.

I have seen Ronnie Earl at least 8 times. Every show is excellent. The man is under rated.

[mckaymental]

Nice one! :) Check out mine : watch?v=b_vb0Ebmixs

[Zigblues]

Mihalya (Ronnie's '63 Fiesta Red) is sounding sweet here!

[majo849]

a robar!!

[deathbysilence1]

ive being trying to teach myself can really pay for guitar lessons i like this stuff.

[greenfish88]

just play the damn guitar and leave the phony crap at home, please.

[brnfaceblondes]

Ronnies so ffffiinnn great, sheesh!

[saiano1]

I think that Bieber kid has more soul than this guy....HA! I feel sorry for today's youth.

[TimBirkenholz]

@saiano1 THANKS FOR PROMOTING BIEBER ^^

[saiano1]

@TimBirkenholz Yeah...I feel ashamed now. Hopefully people understood my sarcasm.

[TimBirkenholz]

@saiano1 yeah. okay imma say thiis once to guys like you XD. In every "real-good" music vid, like this one, you see comments about "bieber sucks, the jonasbroos suck, ladey gaga sucks and that this realmusic is waay better. But guess what: youé actually promoting bieber,gaga, and the gaybros by saying their names. I didnt know about them untill I read a youtube comment. Stop mentioning their names, and they'll fade away in time.

[saiano1]

@TimBirkenholz That is probably the most distinguished view point I have ever read in a Youtube comment (no matter how difficult it is to believe anyone has never heard of those "icons"). That was the first and last time I'll mention any of them again.

[TimBirkenholz]

@saiano1 allriight then. Now if everybody did that it would be cool. Im sick and tired of people commenting about them. I wanna see some real comments lol. And nnot those comments that are all the same

[saiano1]

@TimBirkenholz You should be in charge of comments. The Comment Police. "Making Youtube a better place one comment at a time...and hating pop icons along the way"...hell yeah.

[TimBirkenholz]

@saiano1 hey man I like pizza with cold coke. You too ?

[saiano1]

@TimBirkenholz Pizza with cold coke? That's gotta be the craziest thing I've ever heard...Nah, I'm just kidding. Of course I do; although, I'm a little worried that "pizza with cold coke" is a metaphor for something less desirable.

[danieldddfff555]

veery good

[metensarnaud]

It's so pleasant that I got some chicken skin just to listen him play !!!

[TurtleRocker12]

had never heard of this guy before but i'm amazed

[cjoey39]

Love these laid back blue's solos. Ronnie Earl shows us that soul doesn't mean cramming in 100 notes in 4 seconds. It's something that you don't get and can't play unless you can completely let go and just let it flow. Awesome song and video!!! Joey Vaughan "World Blues Attack"

[andy21212121rfggadg]

i like this!

for those of you who don't already know you can get free blues lessons at

bluesguitarmastery(dot)co(dot)­uk

i checked it out and F'in love it

its weird,totally free!

[DibbyTheJumboMutt]

he looks constipated here. .. 1:51

[MatadorUA]

Good!!!

[johnnyjolijt]

Fuck Tabs. Just look & Listen!

[jockalatta]

One of the most underrated blues guitarists. Masterfull playing.

[barnoguttlin]

yep, and santana is a fan of ronnies.. Actually surprised some people here don't seem to know who ronnie earl is. One of the most soulful cats ever on a strat. he is an absolute master

[jezmundberserker]

Further proof that less is indeed more. Brilliant. About the funny faces, I think Carlos Santana said it best: "If you're not making funny faces, you're not feeling it."

[berlymaiden]

Is that Al Bundy?

[kyle9371]

is that a 59 strat

[Frinkstobat]

"Self Identifying Yourself" haha! Now there's an intelligent statement!

[Frinkstobat]

His vibrato sucks ass, but wow, that chooks bum face he pulls is killer!!

[Ev630]

Thanks for self-identifying yourself as someone whose contributions are to be ignored as irrelevant.

:)

[Spasticsontonden]

Great tone, but that's definitely some pretty sucky vibrato at 1.27. Chooks bum face, yeah, reminds me of when I saw Scofield. He not only pulled a pig face, he actually snorted like a pig by accident into the mic! I kid you not! Don't worry about the comment below. Obviously Ev630 has about as much sense of humor as a brick! Jokes people, remember jokes! jeez!

[stevebres03]

i got the dvd from netflix and its awesome. i cant find the tabs though. if anyone knows where i can find them let me know pleaseeeee.

[dingoswamphead]

You should see the rest of this DVD. There's a lot to pick up about emotional expression and feel.

[StJaso]

Wow Flawless...

[frenzexperiment]

blues fits all kinds of moods...just listen to these 3 minutes and you'll understand

[adlersidol]

does anyone know if thats a song he wrote or if its just him jammin for his dvd cause i really wanna find the tabs for it

[magu0117]

awesome man!

[Umbemoro]

Someone got the tab please?

[AwakeLoner]

This is the Blues, are ya listenin'? I said this si thr BLUES are ya listenin'?!

[Tezman82]

Please post the rest of this vid. That was awsome!

[joey5venuti6]

this guys sounds like hes got alot of sh*t in his life lol

[Oldspirit189]

@joey5venuti6 he was a heroin addict dumb fuck of course

[Hunter0421]

I could watch this video all day. And that is a great looking strat. I heard one of his fans gave it to him but I don't know if thats true

[sebah1991]

fuck his strings look so thick prob 12's?

[stevebres03]

this dude is badass.

[Daycron66]

Ronnie Earl can do more things with a guitar than a Chinaman with a chicken.

[twoheadedboy]

@Daycron66 Chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian-American, please. ;)

[rvcctj]

@twoheadedboy - not if your the other 99% of chinese guys NOT living in America :P

@Daycron66 - I'm chinese, I laughed:)

[crisbianfloyde]

@Daycron66 LMFAO man

[samucalencar1]

man, when he goes high on the strings, that just made me remember a bit of lenny live at el mocambo by srv. Class man, very nice.

[spenceman62]

amazing video!!!!!! i love the blues!!!

[mastermetx]

Excellent¡

[yngwie005]

Bordil blues  héhéhéhéhéhé

[Zwem73]

Fender strats and Super Reverb amps are it!!!

[TwinCitiesBlues]

Ronnie is known for playing black face Fender Twin Reverb amplifiers.

[EricCirca6566]

He also use to use Super Reverbs before the Twins. Everybody used to use Super Reverbs.

[free3easy]

cooking... !

nice strat too .

[wcrimi3]

Awesome

[orelpap]

Nice video!

[MisEnPlace420]

i heard he just plays through a cranked vintage super reverb

[totosmeels]

whats the chord he plays at 1:54???!!!!

[bluesbren]

Looks like he'\s playing a B9 top 4 notes slid up a tone (2 frets) - it's the top 4 strings e.g

B9 - 13 fret d string, 14 fret g,b and high e - then slide it on up 2 frets - voila!

I might be wrong of course, but it sounds pretty close!!

[rvcctj]

@bluesbren - yep, the 2-fret slide up technically makes it a B6. However, he passes back through the b7 of the chord (A note) so it stays within the sound of a B13.

Classic T-Bone walker move, really. Used by BB, Buddy, SRV, Ronnie and a bunch more.

[totosmeels]

GREAT tone

[es345td]

That's Great ! What Tone. I will look for the dvd

[waisfrancor]

incredible!!! i see god

[LegacyRiff]

Simply fantastic.... will buy the DVD...

[thailow117]

given that he just makes this piece up and jams along, i have to to say that mr. ronnie earl easily deserves a place among the greats. he is so complete. full of history with a delicate personal footnote.

i fucking love it.

[drpickup]

Ronnie Earl is up there with the great blues musicians - this is a great DVD - get it!

[vergeharget]

Maybe he's one of the best blues players living. No?

Itzik Basman

[stratman323]

Yes!

[greenfish88]

nice playing, but i could do without the stereotypical blues grimacing; makes me feel like it's a bit "phoney" and only done to copy some of the original black blues musicians who really did FEEL the blues...

[bonecracker23]

You don't play like this if you don't really feel the blues...You don't necessarily need to be black and from the beginning of the 20th century to have soul.

[soundmethod]

@bonecracker23 I can kick you in the balls and you will be playing like Furry Lewis.

[5telecaster]

@bonecracker23 I agree since music is n't specific to black, white, chinese etc it's for everyone.

[TheSatanas666]

@bonecracker23 YEAH BUT YOU NEED TO HANG OUT WHIT LOTS OF BLACK DUDES LIKE RONNIE DID

[dpinsker]

I know you dont learn blues by tab, but is there any tabs for this? :P

[senorv6]

Yes. There's one particular guitar tablature book that is out of print. It's got the entire "Ronnie Earl Blues Virtuoso - Live in Europe" tunes note for note. No lyrics though. I have a copy and would considering selling it via a Paypal payment. By the way, Ronnie Earl is such a great blues guitarist and has so much feel. Love it!

[pottedmeat42]

FYI - that album is all instrumental (and all good!)

[senorv6]

Great Instrumental album. You're right. I was actually referring to a Guitar Tablature book that I have of this album which someone had asked about. Thanks for the great video!

[carpybv]

hey dude - how much for that book? i tried to find it second hand ages ago without any luck and had forgotten about its existence... but your comment just reminded me! send me a private message - cheers :-)

[motokev]

I'll buy that book

[Flowws]

Could you scan it maybe? & post it somewhere?

Thanks

[iagobroxado]

buy his "Hot Licks Series DVD", thats from where this comes from.

[jayscott49]

what gets me is that Ronnie has so much soul ALL the time, i've just never seen him at less than this level of feeling, and he's back! gotta see him again...

[dpinsker]

Try listenin to this at 2am, just try it!

[frankeesh]

the guy is possesed when he gets going live.One of the best blues players ever,and some people never heard of him.sad

[dingoswamphead]

What a clean tone and total blues feeling. Very slick management of the flatpick, and I'd love to know what setup you were using. Can a standard Strat sound so good?

It had an essential simplicity with deep soul.

Thanks Ronnie, you are such an inspiration.

[silkee59]

I have played with Ronnie many times and no matter what he was using it sounded like him.

In most cases one or too Super Reverbs.Ronnie live is very loud volume at 7 treble 10 middle 10 bass 4-5 which is pretty standard setup that most players using a strat and super seem to like. The guitar is an early sixties strat if I remember pretty stock action is high for most and strings are if memory serves me 11-52. Rember its the shooter not the gun you are the tone not the

equipment!

[brewereric]

ummm u really sound like you may just have played with ronnie....interesting...it does sound like an new set up but back in the 80's was that the rig? just curious

[silkee59]

From what I remember yes that is what he used

If it was not a super then on occasion a black face twin with SRO speakers or perhaps JBL. Ronnie loved old supers as many blues players do since they give a great break up at mid volume. And yes I have played with Ronnie have not seen him in years but live close by.

[brewereric]

cool, i met him a few times in clubs around the midwest...mostly ohio and pa we used to talk about fender twins and how the texans made them popular in the late 60's when leo flooded the area with stuff for mass consumption. he was quite a conversationlist...never played with him but always wanted too...i was young then and didnt have the nerv.....lol but hes a gifted player with a sharp ear....thats most respectable

[frankeesh]

you know so much about him who are you?I know all those terms too.

[PilotDoofy]

"its the shooter not the gun"

I couldn't agree more. Ronnie could play with a Squier and still have people on their feet.

[rasomaso]

Arnold J. Rimmer O.o

[Stratomite]

Great feel and amazing tone. Makes me wonder what Stevie Ray would sound like if he was still alive today.

[RAZOR4U]

Mr. Intensity himself....He sounds great live.

[ilovestratocasters]

Amazing player! Cheers me up everytime.

[saxby01]

Is this bloke stoned? Or maybe just no sense of swing.

[daviemcf]

One of the greats!!

[geeterman98]

i love ronnie earl,and IMO i think the tone that SRV finally got was when he was trying to copy ronnie earl's tone

[dpinsker]

Stevie had different sounds for his guitars, i think his Lenny strat sounds alot like this.

[woodjoewood]

yea i saw this pic in srvs bio with him looking at ronnie earl very closley when they were playing togther.

[alanstrainor]

Truly amazing player. Thanks for uploading this.

[woodjoewood]

so sweet. one of them tones and styles i just found thats worth knocking one out over.

[Daycron66]

When Ronnie plays his guitar, it stays played.

[MrCaribbean]

for me ronnie earl is one of the best when it comes to feel,he has alot of taste,he is very crafty and he has got the feel.

[esuterik]

man i remember seeing u when i was 12 at byron bay blues fest/Australia - man u really rocked it

keep the peace and blues flowing

really hope one day to literally look upon you as an idol

mystic earl!

[RAZOR4U]

Very tastifully done as always from Ronnie. Awesome.

[79dan]

LOL....2:25 looks like he just smelled the worst but nugget ever........great playing though

[vergeharget]

phenomenal player; at the absolute top of the blues guitar heap.

Itzik Basman

[79dan]

you can rent it from blockbuster online....

[alberzzz]

HE IS A MASTER, NO DOUBT.

[zkat2]

Ronnie has an exceptional talent. talk about playing with feeling...this is as good as it gets.

[motokev]

the guy is amazing.....one of my favorites

[randalltomes]

Where to buy, I found some on ebay.

[Daycron66]

Ronnie taught me everything I know.

[LevyNagy]

The best musicians are so damn hard to find! It took me a few years of digging the Blues to get in touch with the magic of Ronnie Earl. Now I know for sure I haven't lived my life in vain.

[babo85]

where the hell can i get this dvd????

[magicksam]

Beautiful
