Chordplay - The Chords Of Y&T

Here's the next episode of Chordplay with The Chords Of Y&T. I have to admit the recent outpour of requests to feature some ideas from Y&T surprised me - and I want to thank everyone that chimed-in after the recent Dickey Betts Three-For-All lesson. Those requests steered me in this direction and I tapped into some really cool ideas from Dave Meniketti and the music of Y&T, so thank you again! This lesson hits some choice rockers from Y&T's catalog, including a rare treat found on (technically) their second album from 1978, when they were still called Yesterday & Today. I didn't realize that Y&T had albums and music in the mid/late 1970s, so I dove into that music first, while also visiting and revisiting their entire catalog from the 1980s and beyond for this lesson. The riffy ideas shared in this lesson come from songs such as 'Knock You Out,' L.A. Rocks,' 'Rescue Me,' and more, not to mention the biggest hit of their career, the timeless 'Summertime Girls.' There are some cool riffs and great chord-based ideas hiding in this lesson, including some tasty twists based around minor seventh chord shapes/fingerings, ringing power chords, slinky single note riffs, not to mention some standard 1980s rock guitar moves, such as sus chords, pinch harmonics, and much more.
