3 Vivian Campbell Licks From 1989

Here's the next episode of Three-For-All with 3 Vivian Campbell Licks From 1989. I've had a lot of requests to feature more from Vivian, and while I did feature him along with Adrian Vandenburg (from their Whitesnake days) in a Three-For-All episode around two years ago, not to mention the Dio Chordplay episode also from 2019, I decided after noticing more requests coming in for him that it was time to feature him in another lesson - so here we go!

This lesson takes a look at a handful of ideas that came from a "Vivian Campbell & Friends" appearance at GIT in 1989, which was post-Whitesnake but pre-Def Leppard, and that transitional period when Vivan formed Riverdogs and a few other projects. His playing was fiery and as aggressive as ever during this period, as this lesson reveals.

The ideas shared here include plenty of pivot arpeggio ideas, which I penned a lesson for Guitar Player back in the Holiday 2017 issue surrounding pivot arpeggios, a common sound heard coming from players such as Nuno Bettencourt and Steve Vai, not to mention Gary Moore - who a was massive influence on Vivian. There's also a sinister double-picked intervallic idea that will keep you up at night and your picking hand in shape, and much more!
