Burn Guitar Lesson - Deep Purple - Famous Riffs

Today&"famous riff" lesson is from the legendary Deep Purple and their iconic guitarist Ritchie Blackmore. This riff is pure hard driving classic rock with pounding and fast moving chords that create a frantic sound. In this Burn guitar lesson video we will take a look at that opening riff to see exactly how it is played note-for-note. I do recommend using your thumb on the low E string like I do in this video lesson. That is how Ritchie Blackmore himself played it and it makes the other fast moving chords in the riff much easier to play. I think most intermediate level guitarists won&have much trouble with this riff. As always take it slow and just repeat the riff over and over again until you feel that it is nice and controlled. After that you can proceed to speed it up but make sure you keep that groove going steady! If you would like to learn the entire song all you need to do is "like" this video on YouTube. After it gets to 600 YouTube likes I will then teach the entire song note-for-note. So have fun with this classic riff from Deep Purple and I will see you back here soon with tutorials teaching the entire song. :) Carl...
