Scott Raines You're the man. We need a tutorial of I NEED YOU by Skynyrd to show off to our lucky ladies!!!!!!

That solo has a lot of notes in a short space, and is full of Allen's over bends that he was known for! Love it!

These lessons are unique! It's a privilege to have access to the detailed tricks that give Lynyrd Skynyrd songs such a genuine flavor. This "I Ain't the One" is one of the best of the band! Thank you very much Scott!

I put this song squarely at Number 1 Skynyrd song. I loved it the very first time I heard it back in jr high, still do, it has more spice than all the others. Never seen it get this much expert attention. It is one of about 3 songs that led me to pick up a guitar 50+ years ago. Thank You.

Always been one of my top Skynyrd songs on the list...and the list is long...right there with On the Hunt...

One of the baddest guitar bands ever. Just genius guitar playing.

Wow, incredible playing! So cool to watch. 🤘🎼

Scott, Thank you!! This is worth gold! I hope you keep these coming because people need to know how great the guitars and how technical the guys playing was!!

So glad I ran across your channel, Scott! Sometimes insomnia pays off! This is exactly how I prefer video guitar lessons - regular speed with the original, then break it down, not too fast, not too slow, perfect video angle, and excellent sound. Thank you, sir!

Hello Scott and a Big Thank You ! Love these video lessons of my favorite band and music.

This Yankee heard the intricacies of this song and the distinct Southern feel of every one of Skynyrd’s songs and was sold for life. Billy Powell just boogey woogies his part of it. Scott, did Ed King create this riff? Seemed like Allen always played his leads damn near on the pickups. Man I miss all those guys. Your keeping their songs alive with Artimus and Bob. Thanks man!

Thanks soooo much for your lessons. You are the “guy” when it comes to learning songs from one the best bands ever. I really really hope you are able to do Things Goin On. It’s amazing how so much talent could be in one band.

another fantastic song Scott! one that I had almost forgotten about. you are not only a great musician and instructor, but a musical historian as well. keeping these great songs alive and catalogued. And best of all I finally get to see APB. See you in Watertown, MN. in July. 5 days after the Black Crowes. Yippee😊

They were incredibly clever 😲😲😲

So cool to see this and the timing! Have been playing this one, this week! Nicely done Scott!

I looked at the time and thought this lesson would run slow but Scott keeps things moving at a brisk pace it just takes a while to get all those licks in!

One of my favorite tunes for sure . NIce work !!!

What a guy....! Thank you so much for this Scott...!! All the very Best from north Wales... UK....

Hahaha Scotts says he wished he knew solo better. Then proceeded to play it note for note with recording. You are too humble my hero 😂

Seriously cool brother. Thank you.

my favorite skynyrd song. awesome collins solo. thanks for the video.

Amazing job man. That rhythm part is insanely great. Never realized how mind blowing it is.

Thank You so much, Scott!! I've been working on this song for a while now and I really hope to nail it someday soon lol!! It's a lot of fun to work on and play. Probably my favorite song in their catalogue.

absolutely amazing sir...thank you so much for sharing this man; my #A1 favorite skynyrd song...and it still blows my mind to think that allen collins was only 20 years old when this was recorded; he may have still been a teenager when he came up with those awesome fills and solos ha...anybody that wants/needs to learn this song HAS to watch this; god bless you brother ;>

Looking back on 2020 your lessons are one of positive things I will remember about 2020 thank you.

This song covers so much guitar technique territory and kinda funky too. Looking forward to digging into it! Thank you!

Man, that's a smoking tune. We do this 3 piece, so I definitely have to pick my battles. Thanks for the help on the solo from the A into the D.

Another great tutorial! Good job.

For absolutely ANY Skynyrd tune i want to either learn from scratch or brush up my skills and knowledge on, Scott is my ONLY go to!! Great lessons brother, i love your teaching style, feel like im sitting around jamming with a buddy Ive kmown for years. Learning so much is just the bonus.

Scott, thanks for the video, This song is a Masterpiece here, the first time i heard it in 1973, i kept running it back after the first 45 seconds, it took me 10 minutes to get through the whole song.. Skynyrd just had a way of starting a song that immediately, just kicked your ass, hands down, Rock on, Cousin Figel

Thank you again Scott. Much appreciated

Great lesson, as usual. Such a beautiful shade on that SG.

This one of my fav LS songs and I haven't played in about 3 years. Great video

Great job Scott ! thank you for getting so involved with all the fills, gnarly - narts and other subtle nuances. Ronnie & those LS Boyz didn't mess around, the average listener doesn't realize how finely crafted all these tunes are. They definitely had the right chemistry we're very creative well-disciplined and did their homework! That's why chances are slim will never hear another band come close , except maybe of course APB!!! Thanks again, also could you do Lend a Helping Hand? much appreciated ✌️🐾 JF

Thanks a lot Scott! I am transcribing the solo myself at the moment and got totally stuck at the "tricky bit".

Thank you for taking the time to show us I Ain't the One. Definitely one of their best songs. Take care

Lordy!!!!! Scott thank you 🙏

Nice- thanks for sharing.

I first heard this song and thought immediately, this is the best song from Skynyrd I’ve heard (and still is my favorite all time song period), and so started learning this song from audio around 4 months ago or so. I got the basis of how it sounded, obviously nowhere close to being right, but then I get into looking at a tutorial and from my knowledge not one person had a tutorial until I saw you. And my sir, you made the best tutorial and I can confidentially say I can play this song in front of 5 people maximum and still sound great. So thank you so much Mr. Raines, you got me further into Skynyrd with all your tutorials! Much thanks from me 🙏🕊️

Scott, All your vids are EPIC! I had no idea that APB was doing this, and as a long-time Skynyrd fan and guitarist/bassist, these tutorials are greatly appreciated! i wish that I had these 40-plus years ago when trying to cop all these licks when playing with my buds in my HS band! Love all the guys, but Ed King especially!

Love your skynyrd lessons man!

We need more SCOTT!!! You're literally showing the details that will be gone forever when Gary passes.

Thanks Scott, please update us all on the next tour dates.

You are the goat Scott Thank you

Scott. Love All your videos. I was on RLC #1. Seems like a long time ago. There were lots of bands, but the biggest thrill was seeing the APB out on the pool deck. I remember talking to Tony Black in the fitness room. I have been a BIG fan of you and all of the APB. Thank you for Keeping the music of Ronnie and LS alive.

So cool man. I really appreciate these videos your the best 🙌

Finally tore into this one today and man is it fun and I just wanted to ty for doing this song I know its alot of work to do these videos and ty and APB for keeping Skynyrd music and southern rock alive and well, if it wasn't for APB and Blackberry Smoke it would be a sad world indeed.

I got to meet Bob up in Spartanburg SC a few years back....probably more than a few. Really nice guy

Very cool video as always! Thanks Scott!!

Great brother 🙏🤟

Thank you very much !!🎶

You're a kindred spirit man!! Thanks so much for thiese videos Cottonmouth Country request??

Thanks, Scott. These lesson's are brilliant. I've been blundering and bluffing my way through this stuff for years and it's great to be able to play it all spot on. Any chance of a lesson on the live version of Crossroads? Thanks again and stay well.

Hey Mr. Scott! I met you last night in Newport, Arkansas (the guy who said watches your tutorials). Hope to see y’all again and thanks for helping me learn the songs with these videos!

Thanks so much!! Appreciate your time and efforts!!

Thank you Scott I love all your skynyrd lessons I'm ready to play now ☮️☯️🎶🎸♥️

Dude you rock been on a real Skynyrd kick lately its nice to have these great lessons thank you!

Fantastic. Actually this is the song that taught me how to hybrid pick many years ago. I see now I had a few little things wrong. Thanks for this!

great riff to say

Thank you so much sir !!! I’ve been trying to learn as much as I can from your videos. Thank you !! ......now ....not to sound ungrateful but I honestly have 1 request .....T for Texas, the live version .....I think it was a Roger Miller (?) but the way those 3 guys came together .....it was amazing !!!! If you ever get the time, it would be greatly appreciated. If not......I understand. I still and always will appreciate everything you teach us out here. 🙌🏼 THANK YOU AGAIN SIR !

Nice, 👍. Thanks for this video, It helped me out alot! I had the basics down, And you defined everything else! 🎶🎸🎶

Looks like you haven't made a video in a while. Been loving your content as I learn some of these old tunes. Would love to see I Need You done with all the parts if you ever come back to it. That song is in my top 5 Skynyrd tunes. Such a great groove tune.

Awesome!

The first time I saw those guys in 74 In a tiny auditorium in Alabama that was there opener so it’s etched in my brain. But thanks so much for bringing this tutorial to us so an average Joe like me can maybe tackle it... Thanks so much!

Fantastic work and commitment. Did Skynyrd ever do Same ol blues by JJ Cale. If you have time a tutorial on it would be greatly appreciated. Happy Christmas to you and yours.

Scott, been playing Skynyrd tunes a long time. I have gained better insight to their songs thanks to your tutorials. Was looking for your tutorial for “Roll Gypsy Roll”. Didn’t see one. I play a rudimentary version of it. Would love to see your rendition as a tutorial. Thanks and keep rocking with APB.

Excellent! I've been faking this for too long. Appreciate the lesson!

Thank you scott for another mind blowing video...ya know I retype this text about 5 times..l.o.l ..an In short the best way I can put it is simply put -your really good at it..an great at explaining it ..wish I could play all those songs, an the way you play them..your the leader,.I'm the student..l.o.l..maybe someday I'll be good enough an something would workout an I could play a while with ya..I've always liked playing different stuff but I grew up listening g to lynerd skinerd the most....I dont know if you ever considered the song"He's Alive" by lynered skinered..its an early one that I think has really been underrated but I'm hearing more an more from some that they as well as myself would like to see this song done in a lesson...what I have seen an is very very little seams to be incorrect at the beginning of the solo..but maybe not...I'm having a struggle myself because no matter how I try it it sounds off...if you ..an I'm not gona say could because I know you can😎..but if you would please consider doing a cover for this one an /or atleast help me start this one off so I could have a chance of playing this with the skinerd/southern feal an for my girl an my son...I would be forever grateful!!..but I say thank you again for all you have given us all...keep your wheels on an keep it rolling bro.!!👍

I would love you to do gimme three steps. I got it down start to finish, but would love to see the nuances I know I am missing. Thanks Scott! You do an awesome job and I love all the backstories you put into these breakdowns.

Another great song and another great job brother. Skynyrd's catalog runs so deep with great tunes. I'd love to see you do a tutorial on That Smell. The way you breakdown a song that'll be a 5 hour video lol. Seriously though, it would be a great dive into three great guitarists as the bounce solos back and forth with their own different styles. I'd still love to see Gary's work on Cry For The Bad Man too but I'm partial to Gary's "snarling" guitar. Love the tone he's got on One More From The Road. I apologize for getting off track. Thanks Scott. These vids are great. BTW Anyone new to Scott should also check out his Rain Song cover. Sweet.

Great job Scott!! Would love to see you rip apart That Smell.

I love your channel, Skynyrd is my favorite band. I'd love to get to see APB someday. I wanted to request a song if you have time to make a lesson on it. I'm currently learning Things Goin On and I'm having a hard time with the solo, if you'd be able to make a lesson I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you for all the lessons.

My brother has stage IV Prostate cancer. We both play and its music therapy. I took him to see a Lynyrd Skynyrd show last September. We are having so much fun learning and playing this number. He didn't realize how cool the riffs were until he started playing them. Thank you for providing this amazing service! We both apricate it. From Sparks Nevada 🙏🎸🙏

Thanks sir for sharing! Enjoy your material! Pretty SG by the way...Rock On

Thanks dude ! Of course I was playing this kinda' close ,but ,you just gave me the keys to the kingdom ! This really might be their best . I always leaned to Steve ,but the more I analyze it & now !! ,the more I am awed by Ed . I realized how nuts he really was after watching him in 87' on the tribute gigs as much as it kind of pissed me off after the first agreed on tour dates was extended. That was shocking (Ed's playing). This song is really a pain in the ass , and actually just as ripping as anything off SS , thanks to him ! Much appreciated though. It feels so good to play it correctly finally ! With the 3 guitar army & Phyco bass just tearing your brain apart ,it is easy to discern who is doing what sometimes . Really Great lesson .

Any chance you could do a tutorial of I Know a Little? Saw the video of APB playing it and you guys killed it! Always wondering if I'm playing the songs correctly and you always seem to nail 'em! Would be much appreciated.

Mr. Raines, sorry to bother you sir. Your version of 'Coming Home' with Mr. Burns is amazing. I mean absolutely amazing. I would love to hear you do 'On The Hunt'. I have searched and I can only find Mr. Durden covering the vocals on this track. I personally think you should cover this track. I would also like to mention that I been a Skynyrd fan all my life. The true fans in my opinion adore songs like Mr. Banker, Searching, Four Walls Of Railford,....and etc. I will never understand why you guys never cover their greatest treasures. I would also like to mention that I think Ronald Wayne Van Zant would have been honored to have you on vocals. Thank you and the rest of your band mates for carrying on the legacy. I would also like to mention I mean not disrespect towards Mr. Durden either, I think he does a terrific job as well. I am actually a Audio/Video Design Engineer who is right down the road. You gentleman ever need a hand feel free to reach out. I will be more than happy to slap the board around a bit,...... 8D

EXCELLENT JOB SCOTT. i was wondering if you ever got a chance to play this with Billy Powell on the Piano . I belive he would have loved your rendition , He is a distant cousin through my Grandma Powell , I was also wondering if you have the solos for this song step by step like you did the Rythm parts.. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK ....Later Jake P.

Rock on 🤘🏻

Awesome playing. I think Gary brings more of a Rock/ honky-tonk kinda of feeling

Very good lesson! You make it very clear and understandable to follow! Thanks for this great tune Next maybe ‚Cry For The Bad Man‘ also by lynyrd skynyrd ? This would help very much, cause there are no good lessons on it. Cheers

scott, would you be willing to do i need you from pronounced when you have some free time...you rock!

You teach good I was wondering if any of the guys in Skynyrd like gary or ricky as anything about you showing us these songs

Amazing! Thank you! I KNOW A LITTLE Tutorial - it would be great!

Swwwweeeeeeeeet! Thanks!

Thanks

It's amazing how good those musicians were at that early age. A lot of people don't realize it, but it makes a real difference when recording. That is, how much the different guitar parts change, depending on whether other instruments are playing, or the vocalist (Ronnie in this instance) is singing. The guitarists will essentially play the same chord sequence, but in one case they'll play extra fill notes, or else they won't. Or they'll play a catchy lick, or else it's more simplified. Its like the difference between playing the lower strings in a chord vs just the upper ones, bc in cases where there are other instruments, you don't want to "muddy" the register. (I think that's how to say it.) Anyway, every song they recorded was a masterpiece of arranging and performing. They were very talented, and it's awesome that they found each other.

Would love to hear Trust!

Hi again Scott I am enjoying these as always but have you ever broken down RED , WHITE , AND BLUE step by step ? , KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK Jake P.

Wish you had one of Down South Jukin'. I'd love to see all that Ed King clean strat stuff 😁

Thanks from Bergamo Italy

thanks Buddy the Artimus Pyle T-Shirts ahhaha :)

Great job! I have a request if you can: "That's How I like it" . Thanks

I concur with Brian h and mr. Huff, and also the dude below. I need you please kind Sir! No innuendo intended ha ha

Thank you

Didn’t mean to delete my comment or the response. (Apologies). Love this vid and this site. Hope to see more. Happy to donate to tip jar and would love to see a vid on I know a little. Regardless, thanks Scott!

What the chance you could do a lesson on “Things goin on”. One of my favorite songs. Found plenty of stuff on the intro to the song but I’m trying to figure out the solo too. Thanks

I’d would love to hear you break down Same old blues that would awesome

Would be much appreciated if you would do a tutorial on That Smell. It’s so hard to find anything on KZfaq. Your channel is killer

If you see al the parts of them loose. You see how fricken talented they where. And it sounds so sickk damm.
