Shutup & Play - guitar tutorials I’ve always been so impressed with Elliot Easton’s style and ability. I’d love to see you do a tutorial of Shake It Up. Especially that killer solo. One of my favorite Cars tunes! 🙏🏻

With no deliberate hyperbole, I cannot fault this man's abilities, knowledge, feel or dedication to the most "musical" era of guitar playing, this is my era. This is simply heaven for me, just heaven.

So happy you gave Rick a plug ! He will never go down in history as the best guitar player,,, but he did his part flawlessly and sang ! And looked cool doing it !!!! Hahaha !!! We all loved it !!!! And still do ! 😆✌💕💕💕

@SabastianDuke 2 года назад

I’m friends with Elliot. Fantastic player and super funny dude.

@blayneb7290 2 года назад

This is great as usual, thanks! Elliot Easton's performance on this song is just a Master Class in tasty rhythm playing and fills. Just an AWESOME guitarist who doesn't get the credit he deserves. And the solo! My all-time favorite Cars song.

@borism7615 2 года назад

For self reference: ez Intro riff - 1:50 Intermission between 1st and 2nd riff - 4:10 Intro fill - 5:00 Verse - 5:53 Catchy fill - 8:32 Slide - 10:22 Variation 3 - 10:40 verse 2 - 11:25

Been wanting to learn that "I Will" lick for 35 years, just couldn't get it right back then. Thank you very much for showing us how it goes; I've learned something new today!

over 40 yrs. ago, this song still rocks, Cars were so talented

@jguitar23 8 месяцев назад

@brettsmeltzer2447 3 года назад

Wow! Just hearing that whole intro just took me back to when I heard that song for the first time when I was 15 years old! Sounds Great! Love It! Can’t wait to hear / watch the Solo tutorial! 👍

@stevec.1802 5 лет назад

Excellent demo. Elliott is a talented musical architect seamlessly combining his melodic ideas technically while making it look effortless..🎸 thank you for dissecting the song for us..

@bradpaulburn4857 5 лет назад

Brilliant lesson mate . I didn't think anyone would have taken the time to dissect Elliotts parts , and so well too . The guitarists from this era were often overlooked because there was simply so many of them that played with this sort of quality .

@vvtli808 5 лет назад

I was just going to ask you to do this song - Thanks! And you got the beginning chords correct. So many people don’t get that third chord.

@zergogtovar3463 Год назад

So cool. I never really heard all these nuances in this sang. Now I got to listen with headphones.

@bertclark5046 Год назад

Am late to the party, however, Andy you rock. Have been really enjoying making feeble attempts to emulate you performing some of the all time great rock and roll songs. Thank you!

@nickjones4232 Год назад

Great lessen, I used to able to pick things up but you've given me a great shortcut, thanks very much

@nicholaswoolfenden5254 7 месяцев назад

The funny thing is capo on F to play in key. A lot of people fall apart because it's tough if they are fret marker based. But it's worth pursuing just to test yourself out of the comfort zone of markers. I struggled with it but it is liberating all the same. I wish I'd learner with no markers on frets at all now!

@genestippell1833 7 месяцев назад

Fun fact .... Elliot Easton, real name Elliot Steinberg, went to the same high school as Brian setzer. Age-wise I was between the two. Elliot a couple years older, and Brian a couple of years younger. I knew Elliott's brother and lived with setzer. There was rockabilly in the air back then in the town called massapequa Long Island.

@baronvg 5 лет назад

I KNEW IT! I always thought the fill was virtually identical to I Will and was more than just a coincidence! Lol

@madarakurzemniece7674 Год назад

Thank you for this, this is one of my favourite songs and this is a really great tutorial, kinda renewed my excitement about playing guitar. :)

@thomasvee329 5 лет назад

@paulroark6840 Год назад

I never realized that was from I Will! That's great.

@bassfishingwiththeantichri2921 3 года назад

This song is really cool.

@nicholaswoolfenden5254 7 месяцев назад

Fab mate It's kind of Beatles You Will on steroids. The rhythm guitar of Ocazec is underrated simple as it is. It takes minimalism, hard to teach to my young students who are keen shredders. That's good but how about learning some rhythm chips before you leap into the abyss .... ? I spent 5 years playing rhythm guitar in the band. I only realise now that it was invaluable even if I thought I was just pedalling.

@MyDadWasALifeguard 5 лет назад

@Habs8691 4 года назад

Funny how the guitar lick in this song is very similar to the one in the Beatles "I Will" from the white album. Check it out and you'll hear the similarity instantly.

@madcowusa4277 4 года назад

Killer lesson

@rich-moporter 5 лет назад

Another great video! I played this song in a band years ago but did it in the key of F, did all the fills and the solo (not as accurately as this though). For the life of me, I can't remember why we didn't do it in E. Would have made my life a lot easier!

@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials 5 лет назад

For sure playing this in F would not be fun!

@davearonow65 5 лет назад

We do this song in F too. I play bass so it doesn't matter to me, but the guitar player nails every part no problem. I asked him why don't we just do it in E, wouldn't it be easier on him but he said yes it would be, but he learned it in F and has been playing it in F for so long, why bother and besides, it sound's better and more right in F which I agree with him on, so, ok, F it is.

@imannonymous7707 5 лет назад

My favorite cars track Elliot easton the new wave rocker with a rockabilly heart Didnt know r.t.baker produced it, but it all seems clearer now. I always knew that was the i will riff , but that is in f or at least tabs ive seen are ,could you do a vid on that track, lol plz, also a great song

@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials 5 лет назад

@imannonymous7707 5 лет назад

Thanks andy sorry i guess i missed this lesson. So thats cool. and i guess the tabs i seen are wrong too ...it totaly make sense....thanks again bro, peace

@vegasaxeman Год назад

A really great lesson on a really great song! Easy? Yup! BUT... Without all of the subtle nuances that you bring out, it's very bland... Really great job my friend! God bless and take care...

@addictedtogear 5 лет назад

I’m a big fan of yours. Keep up the great work. On a side note can you tell me what pickups you have in your les Paul? I dig the sound. Thanks

@StanleyCullerEsq. 5 лет назад

If memory serves, he has said that they are the Suhr Doug Aldrich signature pickups.

@imannonymous7707 5 лет назад

Is that a little fret buzz im hearing ,hmm ,prob just me. Thought id mention it.....you could make a string on a broom sound amazing tho, thanks again

@jlsagely6892 5 лет назад

It is. Guitar needs a setup.

@atlgator1928 5 лет назад

You don't hear it through the amp. All electrics have that sound when heard acoustically.

@michaelolin2219 3 года назад

Wasn't sure at first, but this guys a pro! Nice job Edit- hey man, talented musicians, but we can all agree there was uncut cocaine and sometimes the notes just flowed...? Even today they might rewrite a few bars. Trye artists are never happy.

@charlesmoulton6237 3 года назад

Please do something by Don Henley, new to channel, like what I'm seeing

@truckerkevthepaidtourist 5 лет назад

shit man it's happening again first we lose the money man and then we lose Ric... 70s and 80s Legends going away too fast..although I was surprised to find out Rick was seventy-five I thought he was about the same age as Eddie 70..😢😇like this say if there's a rock and roll heaven you know they got a hell of a band

@sinistar426 5 лет назад

Think of it this way, the longer you stay on this Earth, the more people you're going to watch leave it.

@johnvcougar 4 года назад

We have their legacy. The Cars remains for me one of best pop rock bands ever. Love their work, and these lessons are still unparalleled. Pefect about of talking, mostly playing. Thanks.

@TerenceMcLaughlin-ty7rr Год назад

Andy - I know you are a stickler for accuracy - Rick does not play power chords on the chorus. Its a little boogie using the 'D' string 4th fret to 7th fret then back open B7. You can see Rick on multiple live versions doing it and other lessons on youtube have it ---- just saying :)

@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials Год назад

I do see what you mean in the live videos, but I don't hear that at all on the studio recording. Cheers Andy

@thomasperry4825 Год назад

How come the record is in F in A440 tuning

@darranedmundson1505 5 лет назад

Andy, the link to the "more information on this lesson" in the description above is broken. The one listed in the first pinned comment works. It's the other at the top. As always, awesome video.

@reubenchildress8992 4 года назад

What type of tuner is that on the top of your guitar?

@oojudg3oo 4 года назад

Yes, I Will is an influence on that fill. But I also believe Buddy Holly's Words OF Love is in there too. Even the Beatles version
