The we should really have a YouTube thread thread

also in a similar vein, and i don't think it's been mentioned here before, is rick beato's "What Makes This Song Great" series.  rick has been working in the music biz for some 40 years and the dude can play every instrument, so watching him break down a song into its parts is a treat.  he consistently has the individual unmixed parts (stems) of the song being analyzed so he can solo just one instrument, just the vocals, etc.  he must have some sick industry connections to get those…  there are over 100 episodes in the series, so guaranteed to hit something you like.  strongly recommended for the musicological nerds.


also fun to watch are his "Top 20 Countdown" lists, AKA "Top 20 (X) of all time" (top 20 guitar solos of all time, top 20 rock vocals, top 20 alternate tunings songs, etc).  contrary to the million such musical listicles out there, Rick's lists are defensible. 

^nice find and think I'll be wasting some time on this youtube

fuckin' eh… that bird is amazing.  it sings in tune (for the most part).  i'd definitely go see it in concert.  check out the ad libs it does over the chorus of Knocking on Heaven&#039;s Door - amazing!

what a ham, it's like the bird knows it's being taped too
good stuff

Apparently people are really flocking to Bad

Yes, Rick and Professor of Rock took up much of my freetime in the last two years.

New video from The Suffers, who were clearly fans of Yada so much so they named a song after him and mentioned the name twice…

Vocal ANALYSIS of RUSH&#039;s &quot;Tom Sawyer&quot; with AMAZING DRUM SOLOS!!!

hadn&#039;t see this one, but i&#039;ve watched a bunch of her analysis of other singers.&nbsp; interesting takes.&nbsp; look up her analysis of iron maiden for similar fun ;D

same vein, classical teacher analyzing rock performance: Classical flutist reacts to Jethro Tull (Tampa Stadium 1976) // I AM SPEECHLESS!

IMO best video of that first lady, the vocal coach: Vocal ANALYSIS of Metallica&#039;s first Power Ballad &quot;Fade To Black&quot;. You cannot miss this one!  gotta love he genuine reactions to kirk's solos…

Look at her other videos listed.  She loves herself some Heavy Metal.
