Now retired after southern rock bar bands (with little craft) for decades & just playing instro surf now for enjoyment. But that has led back to rockabilly, the need for basic technique and wonderful tunes like this one. Thank you for sharing. Many can do, but few can truly teach, and you are doing a fine job at both. (Your approach and civility actually evokes Hank Marvin's gentlemanly way I've heard in informal discussions of his echo & other technique.) Keep having fun; we are certainly beneficiaries.

Not sure if you heard the news but we lost Scotty Moore yesterday. : ( I heard it on the radio in a 3 second news blip after longer news blips and just before a commercial break. I was like, "Wait, wait, what, no!", and had to look it up online to be sure I'd heard right. He deserves so much more than a 3 second news flash. So many great songs and such a big impact on so many of us who love music. Thanks for helping to keep that great music alive. Be well. Peace.

Scotty was such a humble man. He should been the biggest guitarist ever. Sadly, Scotty never earned much money. He didn't earn a dime from the original Elvis recordings at Sun Studios, Sam Phillips didn't pay him.

Learning this song was a life changing event and took my playing to another level, after years of seemingly going round in circles. I can now play all those wonderful Travis picked tunes like Dear prudence, Buckets of Rain, Julia, He's a Mighty Good Leader and many more that I thought I would never be able to play in a million years. Thank you so much Adrian for all your hard work, may the heavens rain glorious jewels upon thee! 💯

I have studied about every video lesson available, including a couple paid sites, and have gained some progress. BUT without question, your lesson here is the best, clearest, most patient, most organized, best video, and plain best instruction I've found for this tune and the style. Great job. Thank you and I will be seeking more.

I started learning this song last year - it was a long journey having grown up with Elvis as a kid and hating that music most of my life (familiarity breeds contempt) - I finally made it okay to appreciate Scotty and his influence on the likes of Hank, who influenced Gilmour etc. But once I started to try to learn this song I put the guitar down for a year. Turns out this is a really unique approach to the guitar - and like you said - a substantial archetype for rock-and-roll. You do it justice and I might just pick it up again under your inspiration.

I as an older guitar player fully appreciate just how authentic this is - producing the relaxed train style feel to it - very good. The best track from the Sun album. I was also emotionally moved that you as a young player felt this was an important song to add to any guitar player's repetoire. This was pioneering stuff that still reverberates around the world - pun intended. I felt the high point of your lesson was the close ups of your right hand.

10 years and a stroke later... Thanks to this lesson, I used to be able to play Mystery Train passably, although I never perfected it. Now after an untold number of neurons have died, I am back again, for a lesson in humility, patience and impermanence. I think Adrian's channel may have had around 1/30th of its current number of subscribers back then. Given the consistently high quality of the channel, it's a mystery to me he hasn't broken 1 million yet. Maybe he doesn't care that much, and authenticity always comes first? Anyway, if he did a couple of collaborations (Eric Haugen, Puisheen, Dave Simpson, That Pedal Show, 60 Cycle Hum, Justin Sandercoe, Jens Larsen are some of the names I think might work) he'd easily double his numbers. If he wanted to. I bet he has been asked and declined a few times.

Hi Adrian, another great lesson enabling anyone seriously interested in the guitar to really improve their playing. Always love hybrid picking whether it be the late, great Scotty Moore or that man in the beret, the still blooming Richard Thompson. Over the years I've learned a great deal from many excellent postings on KZitem and the related links to the sites of countless players/teachers. Without descending into 'brown nose' territory, I honestly can't think of any site that is better than yours. I , along with many others no doubt, am very thankful for your generosity in providing us with such superb material. Looking forward, if you ever get the time, to see more with your Tele - I've got the same axe myself. Cheers.

Hello Adrian, Just bought a Classic Vibe Telecaster, mainly to play Keith Richards stuff as I'm a great fan of the Stones, and stumbled across your channel looking for some country licks (a lot of people think of Keith as a blues/rock guitarist but I hear a lot of country in his playing too). This is a brilliant lesson on how to play this simple but quite tricky song. I'm already working on it. Also love your videos on a simple country solo and a simple blues solo. I play a lot of blues and like the idea of playing something that doesn't rely on simply widdling up and down the corresponding pentatonic scale. Thanks for all your advice. Keep up the good work!

Our little band have started doing a few rockabilly numbers and trying to get Scotty Moore's work down correctly proves just how good he really is and how ahead of his time he was 60 odd years ago. If you've time, a couple of numbers I'd love to see your take on is Scotty's work on My Baby Left Me and Hound Dog. The start of Scotty's 2nd Hound Dog solo has me completely baffles. Delighted to subscribe and see what other gems you've got lined up. Terry
