Putting It All Together: Guns n’ Rose’s “Paradise City” Breakdown

The big problem with theory is that lots of discussions fail to put it into practice. So I thought, why not show you how some of the concepts we’ve been talking about work in one of my favorite songs?

Some concepts I reference in the video include:

  • the G mixolydian scale
  • the g major arpeggios
  • the g major pentatonic scale
  • the g minor pentatonic scale
  • the G – C – F – G progression
  • perfect 4ths in the verse/main riff
