Phil, I came to Christ in 1981, at 23 years old. I left behind a life of heavy alcohol and drug use. Prior to coming to Christ I was into hard core Rock, but wanted to change my lift completely. Your Song, "Spend My Life With You" was one of the first, and most inspirational, Christian songs I heard. The Lord used your song to touch my soul on a very deep level, and I appreciate your work and artistry. I'm now a beginning/intermediate guitarist, and have a love for both acoustic guitars as well as for finger-picking style. I would absolutely love to learn to play "spend My life With You." I hope and pray that you would at least consider making a lesson teaching it. your fan, and Brother in Christ, Bob

Happy 2024 to ya, Phil! Seeing this vid I'm reminded of you playing an auditorium in Duluth probably 15 years ago, and I gave the stage manager some CDs to pass along to you. I feel a bit disappointed at MYSELF for doing that. I did not realize that 1) it was basically me showing off and 2) you were probably getting CDs from guitarguy fanboys at every stop on the tour back then. I'm learning! Much older and SO much wiser.

Such a Wonderfully Talented Guitarist! "I threw that in" he says "Elvis Presley Moment" So funny too! Sometimes You Sound Like Paul McCartney in lots of your Rock N Roll stuff from earlier yrs. I was just listening to something off of Sunday's Child-Tell Me How You Feel-If I had never heard of Phil Keaggy I might have thought it was Paul.

I think I have had every one of you're taps and CD's that you ever put out, the problem is I give them away, when I play them for friends. They all ways want them. What a wonderful gift.

I don't know about metal, per se, but Phil is no stranger to amazing electric guitar, or fantastic vocals. And as Chuck Berry warned, he never loses the beauty of the melody. Check him out.

@Vaughanabe13 15 жыл бұрын

He definitely has an ear for it, but actually it is very easy to switch between standard and DADGAD tuning. Only 3 strings change tuning, and they move by a single whole step, which is an easy interval to hear. Then when you are in DADGAD, since it is DSUS4 tuning and very "open" sounding, and since you only changed 3 strings, it is easy to pick out the strings that are out of tune and quickly adjust them, as he did in the video. Notice he wasn't in tune right away and had to adjust.

@Vaughanabe13 15 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I hear that. I have really good relative pitch so if I have one note that I know is in tune, I can tune all the rest of the guitar strings by ear from that note. But if all of the strings are in random notes I get lost and have to whip out a tuner to get a base pitch in my head. If you're tuning in DADGAD, I have noticed the easiest way to do it is to get the bottom D in tune and then play 12th fret harmonics, two strings at a time. It's easy to hear the dissonance and tune that way

That's a Ryan guitar: ryanguitars.com/. Luthier Kevin Ryan is a friend of Phil's, and I know Phil admires Kevin's guitars, though I haven't seen him play them in any of many concerts I've been to. Phil's main recording and performing acoustic guitars are Olson guitars: olsonguitars.com/. He's also often used Langejans guitars in the studio and on stage: www.langejansguitars.com/index.htm (alas, Del Langejans is retired from guitar making). In his early days as a solo artist, he played a Mark Whitebook guitar. Whitebook had a short guitar building career because of a bad sensitivity to sawdust, but he made a big impression. James Taylor also used to play a Whitebook, but now plays Olson guitars. More on Whitebook at JT's site: www.james-taylor.com/forum/topic/interview-with-jts-early-guitar-builder-mark-whitebook/.

If you want to get good at guitar, make practice enjoyable for yourself. The key for that is to learn to improvise. Find a repeating loop of some chords, figure out what key they're in, and play some notes in that key. Repeat until enlightenment.

Its time to get right with Jesus. nobody is automatically gonna go to heaven at the end of it, we all have lied or stolen or had sex before marriage and the punishment is hell. Jesus died so you can get a clean slate and forgiveness of future sins if you repent of them if you commit them, so you receive the gift of forgiveness by following him. When you start you have to stop sinning willfully, and follow his word and obey it, strive to do those things. That’s following the Lord Jesus. Read the Bible and find wisdom.

@rockinjon1 12 жыл бұрын

In the case of a DADGAD tuning it's easier to be fluent due to having 3 strings tuned the same. It's hard not to sound good in some cases. Especially like an open D or G tuning. Keaggy is amazing though. mad props.
