10-25-220 @tiki trash The lessons for the most part seem to be for us players who have a decent working knowledge and experience of how to play songs. So our Instructor does not usually give those type of "put your finger on the 7the fret" etc., explanations. There are several other YT music instructors who operate in a similar manner. It is expected that the "student" already is "up & running" with their guitar or bass playing. That recognized, some additional detailed explanations can be useful, e.g. with uncommon chords and complex parts.
PIcked up a guitar at 55 years old and 8 years later just love it. I have been inspired by Tricker James more than any other youtuber. Cool tones, cool guitars, cool songs, great lessons, cool shirts, talented player. Thanks for all these. Keep on rocking, I will, in part because of your body of work.
Great Gretsch right here, thank you James, I’m a beginner guitar player, you’ve shown me to play all my favorite stones tunes, acoustically and electric
Everyone raves about the intro(quite rightly of course) but the rhythm guitar part is pretty outstanding in it’s own right imo,especially when it’s played correctly.Thank you for this.
It's pretty fun too play that part in standard tuning as well, there's video from the 90's of Keef with the Wino's playing it solo and he does it in standard.
That harmonica...dang! As great as the guitar work is, and Merry Clayton’s show stopping vocals, it remains Mick’s harmonica that gives the song its apocalyptic snarl
JJ, its been years since I've stumbled upon the Privetricker channel. I've always been just a lurker, but i have to thank you now. Your Stones covers and lessons inspired me to advance my guitar playing further. Cannot thank you enough!
Those opening notes... they take me back to the era of Vietnam and nuclear fear, not knowing whether the assholes in the Pentagon were any stupider than the assholes in the Kremlin, thinking you have your whole life ahead of you and being convinced that it wouldn't be long...
James James correct. It was recorded at Olympic Studios in London during multiple sessions in 1969. Keith plays ALL of the guitars. Jones was already gone and Taylor joined later that year. Mixed at Electra Hollywood where Merry Clayton did the great backup vocals!
Spencer, no, no. You're confusing The Rolling Stones with the CCR. In ANY Director's mind, war + Vietnam + helicopters = CCR, preferably "Fortunate Son" 😉.
Gimme Shelter Would have been Epic in Apocalypse Now. Satisfaction was Good though. Hendrix's version without lyrics of All along the Wall Tower too. Ride of Valkyries was symbolic because Valkyries are the angels of death in Warfare. A little too clever idea that didn't age well.
I wonder, which is your favorite version/tuning for this song and why? I think I've seen three now, all sound great to me, I kinda like playing it in standard so far, but this sounds perfect! I tend to practice on an acoustic and don't really like tuning it to open E though.
If you're scared of putting a lot of extra tension on your guitar, you could do the same tuning but a full step down. That's what I did, just put a capo on the 2nd fret and play everything a little higher :)
