The Guitar Hour Podcast

Ant Law returns, joining Tom, Beebs and Jake. They discuss Ant's recent adventures before delving into 4ths tuning (Ant tunes in 4ths, but not the same as TQ), juggling multiple musical identities, and a passionate re-evaluation of the "3 note per string" approach, yields surprising conclusions. In the Patreon aftershow the guys chew the fat and briefly review Petrucci's new album, Terminal Velocity. Ant has also very kindly given us charts and backing tracks to his latest album for you guys to download, log into Patreon to see them.

The Trooch, the whole Trooch and nothing but the Trooch. This week TGHP guys are joined by the almighty progressive shred legend himself, John Petrucci!! (can you tell we're excited about this one?) They discuss John's soon to be released second solo album "Terminal Velocity" and the freshly released title track. Topics include the background to the writing, recording and production process, crafting guitar tones, reuniting with Mike Portnoy, and how everything was accomplished during the pandemic. We also get John's take on the practise themes of late, and how his practise, development and maintenance has changed over the years since the Rock Discipline instructional. Other topics include different approaches to legato, Berklee, learning and drawing from diverse styles and getting yelled at for rocking the jazz department too hard! 😂 This is peak podding fun for us, and really hope you all enjoy listening!

Tom Quayle looks back on over 10 years being on YouTube and how the landscape of online guitar has changed. With Jake putting more time into his channel and Beebs contemplating doing the same, the team discuss what it means to start a guitar based YouTube channel in 2019, the possibilities, prospects and potential pitfalls. They also finally get round to some discussion group comments and tackle the idea of learning, absorbing and utilising licks in solos.

Everything is fake these days. In the 90s all we had to worry about was Thom Yorke and his plastic trees, but today it's the news, the deep...and now, worst of all...we've got fake guitar playing on the Gram. So the guys convene to tackle the recent hubbub of mimed, sped up shred vids and the community response to it. The discussion then turns to a more interesting subtler shade of grey: 'Jam' videos with composed solos either explicitly passed off as improvised or implied to be improvised. Guess who's passions are high on this one 😹 This is a great episode with strong debate tackling the important blurry boundaries between writing, improvisation, presentation, perception and preservation of image.

Tom and Beebee are away drinking all the whisky on the Scottish island of Islay, BUT…still find time (and sobriety) to sit down with guitars and nerd out on a special episode. This week they answer listener feedback email to the grade exam episodes and talk about the parallels of wood obsession between whisky connoisseurs and guitar nerds. Next, they break the "this podcast isn't a lesson" line, and talk about expanding the number of chords that work within a key. Surprise, there are a lot more than 7! This is a fun teaser and a window into some of the more lessony type content that is in the Patreon bonus episodes and Practise Posse live streams. This weeks aftershow bonus for the Patreon edit features no banter, but Tom and Beebee in a whisky fuelled jam over a couple of standards.

With nothing short of a Herculean effort 3 of the 4 guys convene for an emergency episode. Putting the exam shenanigans on hold for a while they discuss getting their first paid gigs, which morphs into the perils and positives of comparing industry successes. The Patreon bonus after show this week contains some impromptu finger twisting chat about Jake's technique, note grouping and phrasing and light speed. (Apologies this is shorter than usual, but we were lucky to get an episode out at all, Beebs has been in and out of hospital during the week visiting a poorly Sarah) Special thanks to all of our Patreon supporters & those at the producer or practise posse level are: Andy French Dave Cookson Jiri Popek Jonathan Murrell Norman Taylor Patrick Prellwitz Rodaidh Mackay Tim Bennett Tim Daley Ulf Schwurack Zach Loss If you want even more TGH content, please consider supporting the podcast on Patreon!

Happy 100 everybody! After a cursory overview of their experience of all things 'graded', the boys dive in head first and discuss some potentially controversial material from various guitar syllabuses. While doing this, they wrangle with the implications for both teacher and student when it comes to misinformation and the pitfalls that could arise if not tackled.

In this monster episode the guys ponder the prickly subject of graded guitar examinations. This kicks off a theme of episodes discussing the history, variety, quirks, positives, negatives and the downright head scratching weird aspects of them. Also in this episode you may discover the Tom Quayle emoji, an interesting discussion on the state of the album in 2019. Apologies for any problems with the edit/audio and the sparse show notes.

Deep dive this week comes off a discussion group post re: improvisation and the speed of technique and mental processes. Beebs puts this to Tom framed around legato technique, and they all delve into the nature of improvising at high levels of speed and get into the development and some back story of Tom's landmark modern legato tutorials.

After a few weeks of high emotions and even higher music theory, Beebs, Quayle and Willson attempt to take things easy talking about the 3 albums and 3 players that have shaped their lives. However! This is not before Jake pulls everyone into a half hour musing on free will, musical determinism and where our ideas come from.

Tom Quayle & Beebee sit in the virtual armchairs for a chat with one of our most requested podcast guests - Rick Beato. They discuss Rick's incredibly diverse skill set, musical background and rise to YouTube phenomenon (he will have just ticked over a million subs as you read this!) before delving back deep into the ear training topic and Rick's upcoming ear training course. There's word of The Beato Book v3 & Club and of course, Beebs says the words fretboard visualisation at least once.. We always say this, but.. it's a great one!

Beebee's lost in the Italian mountains, Tom is releasing his fire hydrant of harmony in Spain and Jake, well we don't know what Jake's up to this week...but for someone who's not a Northerner he spends a lot of time down pit. So until the team return we have a fascinating pre-recorded interview with Joe Mulholland and Tom Hojnacki, authors of the Berklee Book of Jazz Harmony. This conversation delves into the background, context and scope of the book, harmony at Berklee, the source of conflation for tonal and modal harmony problems in guitarland and much more. This is a shorter episode than normal, but it gets heavy and spawns some new avenues to spiral down with further research, reading and exploration. Huge thanks to Joe and Tom for coming on.

Beebs & Quayle welcome the incredible Jack Gardiner to the podcast to talk about playing Satch-n-Vai songs on tour with Stu Hamm, China Crisis, his current projects and upcoming E.P. There are some Beebee nerd questions in the middle before the big topic.. The guys revisit the area of mental health and musical identity in light of Jacks' recent (and excellent) YouTube video, where in he opens up with his struggles of the of the last few years and recent return to social media. This is a wonderful episode and I (Beebs breaking the wall here) want to thank Jack for having such an open, honest conversation about this stuff. The previous episode we did on this, 52. was of tremendous help for my own inner workings (Beebee breaking the wall here) and judging from the feedback and response to it, was relatable and helpful for many of you out there. We pick things back up here framed around Jack's experience, however the conversation is multifaceted and the result is a rich discussion on the ups, down and managing when the wobbles come. Thanks dude.

Quayle, Willson & Beebee reconvene for a follow up on playing consistency, which, quickly turns into a discussion on how to measure ones guitar progress in a healthy objective manner. Beebs guinea pigs an example of Giant Steps with legato and discovers that consistency may not be the issue after all. Light is shed on the effects of always playing at the edge of ones ability. Finally the guys cover some Facebook discussion group chat and ponder why students find descending scales harder than ascending.
