Another brilliant lesson. Anyone can "play" this song, but few can do so like Neil can. You really show how to take acoustic playing to the next level.

@mathijsneyens927 Год назад

This makes me realize how insanly good young is on the guiter

@guytzuv 5 лет назад

Many of Neil Y songs especially “old man” represent the simple harmony between lyrics and an acoustic guitar. This amazing tutorial is not only accurate it also captures the essence of the song . Thank you.

@daviddickinson9957 10 лет назад

I am just plucking up courage to pick up the guitar again after my stroke,although there is a lot of things i don't access in my mind at present i stumbled upon your excellent tutorials which help immensely ,keep up the good work.

@jeffj318 7 лет назад

David Dickinson Hope you pick it up. It will do the body and mind good.

@paulross4244 7 лет назад

Go for it David it'll be a bit frustrating for a while but good for the brain and spirit. I had a brain hemorrage 12 years ago and know what you mean. Baby steps, remember journey of a thousand miles n all that. All the best.

@jeffj318 7 лет назад

Just playing and having fun, David. That is the best thing for you. Just strum chords and hum along. Don't even worry about playing songs if you don't want. Music is therapy, my friend. All the best to you and may God bless you in your recovery.

@AndyCal1 7 лет назад

Hows your return to the guitar going. I broke some fingers on my left hand about 6 years ago and struggled to play for many years. Now I cheat my way through it !!!:-)

@RANGERVETBRET 7 лет назад

I was in a bad accident and had head injury with memory loss (short and long term memory) and my left wrist crushed and DR. had 2 attach my index finger tendon 2 my thumb tendon 2 get my thumb workin again on left hand. Justin got me through it so u can over come your difficulty if u got i t in your heart.

@13coyote13 2 года назад

Glad to see someone who actually knows how to play the song, I've watched many many so called professional players that add notes or leave out notes and as you said he doesn't do picking he keeps his beat by a constant up and down strum. Just bought my first guitar again in 40 years and am trying to pick up where I left off learning Neil Young, some Pink Floyd and a few others before I hit the stage with a bunch of professional buddies in about a year and a half. Thanks again, much appreciated.

@larrygeetar9309 9 лет назад

Don't sell yourself short as a singer, Justin! But it is pretty high on the bridge so love your honesty. Really good lesson. Your lessons are among the best on the RU-vid. Your emphasis on rhythm and strumming is right on. Rhythm guitar is a lost art, as I'm sure you know. Most of my students are dying to play like their lead guitar heroes, which is good, but they don't realize that all those heroes had to start at the beginning and play chords and rhythm first. It's the foundation you build on. Thanks for that emphasis. Well done.

@chadlove3443 9 лет назад

larry geetar Wrong, Justins lesson's ARE the best on youtube.

@diilavery4825 8 лет назад

Not to mention they won't be able to play most of their favourite lead parts alone :D

@jadeedmundson5715 2 года назад

Funny, to me lead playing is easier than a difficult rhythmic piece by Neil Young, or say, Stephen Stills.

@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials 10 лет назад

Excellent lesson by an excellent teacher. You're right, peace brother...

@zeerakkhan7140 3 года назад

and great cover too, not bad.

@maryk6780 18 дней назад

I appreciate how you really concentrated on teaching the strumming. Lots of teachers gloss over but that’s what really makes a difference. Nice also adding all the nuances.

@mrsifters3493 7 лет назад

started an account just to comment on this video. All your vids are excellent but i too have been coming back to this one for over a year. Its pretty much an unteachable song. Eventually you just get it but even then you dont really know what your doing to make that distinctive sound it just comes eventually there's so much going on it would be so complicated to explain as you say. Got to love neil tho, so simple but so distinctive

@michaelbattaglia8943 10 лет назад

Thanks so much Justin. I am a relative newbie (at 60) and just discovered you tube for learning some of my favorite songs. I like your approach, breaking things down and explaining so even the musically challenged, like myself, can understand whats going on.

@ericinla5663 9 лет назад

Justin, wow ... you ARE the ultimate educator when it comes to guitar. You strike a great balance between big picture, and details, and cover it at the perfect pace... not too slow, not too fast. Your passion for the music, art, song and the need to do it justice (hence the details) really come through. Great presentation skills, communication skills, top notch brother! Totally impressed! Just started learning acoustic guitar 8 weeks ago after playing bass guitar most of my life, and you just made a very inspirational song that would otherwise be incredibly difficult, much more accessible... thanks man!

@jeffj318 7 лет назад

@hisurfer1 Год назад

I still remember.... When this video was released, I thought I will never be able to play that song. And now, after years of practicing using Justins lessons - I can play that. What a great journey for me. Found new friends, found my wife while playing guitar.... My complete life is influenced by Justins lessons. It's a little bit scary ;-) Thanks Justin for so much....

@RobynNeundam 7 лет назад

Definitely the closest lesson you can find on the internet for this song. And in my opinion the closest you can get if you are not Neil itself (or really a guitar god). This was the song I wanted to play as I decided to start to learn playing guitar. It took me a lot of practice and I had to revisit this lesson from time to time till all the things are nearly getting possible for me. Thanks to the lesson structure it was easily possible to learn in chunks...

@larrylyons9362 7 лет назад

You are truly a skilled and kind teacher. You inspire a lot of us, Justin. Thanks again.

@markamberg8362 Год назад

This song is frustrating and not easy to get right and it's giving me fits but thank you for the detailed lesson because you really do reach out and try to show the secrets. The timing and rhythm make it sound so good and you know you got it right if you can get all the melodies inside it to fit. I'm lazy and don't count. I just tap my foot but maybe I should learn to count it out....I'm going to keep trying hard on this one because its a song that you have to get in time or it falls apart but if you get it in time it sounds so right. Thanks again. I'm going to keep working at this but like you said there's a lot going on rhythmically with the mutes melodically with the hammers and pulls and and that's why everyone likes this song. Good lesson.

@chrisholmes434 7 месяцев назад

I can’t hear the 4/4 in the intro. Even when he plays it I keep getting to 5. Aargh!

@wandawTube 5 лет назад

I love all of your "explaining." Learning the details and tiny ins and outs of Neil Young's songs makes them come alive even more. Very nice work. Thank you.

@kellystauffer8479 2 года назад

I love your take on music. You have just the right amount of specificness combined with feeling. The one thing that would so help, for me anyway, is if you could teach the music showing both hands at the same time. It's very hard to learn them if you can't see what the other hand is doing . Maybe a split screen is possible? Even so I usually go to your lessons first. And I appreciate all the effort you put in, and there's nothing irritating in your style! Whew! Thank the good great universe for people like you.

@TheJerryw08 9 лет назад

You are by far the best teacher on face book.

@southfork67 7 месяцев назад

Incredibly spot on! My ear is better than my ability to translate it to my fingering. This is the best tutorial I’ve seen anywhere for this song. Such a joy to find these little nuggets to really bring it home. Many thanks.

@steveanthony4695 6 лет назад

Hello Justin and all the fans..... Ive been stocking your videos for quite a while now, picking up tools and tricks as I grow into a newbee guitar player. With this video I have to congratulate you on your work. I'm destroying everything I play and enjoying every minute of it. Thanks for the clues.

@Lasse3 9 лет назад

my dad had this Neil young harvest album ever since i was born, and i always thought while growing up that it was just some old music, and the guy singing had this weird high pitched voice that sounded terribly awkward, fast-forward 24 years; Neil young Harvest is simply pure gold, odd how taste can change like that. always when listening to this 'Old man' i didn't really understand if this were 2 guitars playing, or if it were finger picked or what kind of guitar style it was, but now i decided to learn it and Waaauw ! It's much more difficult than i anticipated ..

@beatalls 9 лет назад

That's uncanny, I felt the same way about Neil Young!

@Lasse3 9 лет назад

@neocon54 6 лет назад

So many people complaining about how hard this song is to learn, but from the first time I heard it I was able to play it well enough to make it acceptable. The chord shapes and hammer ons are so Neil Young that if you get it even close it sounds fine. That's the secret, just keep listening to the original recording. Now the singing is another thing entirely ;-). Great job Justin!

@vyvyanharris149 Год назад

Cant believe that you turned my life around on guitar Justin, it seems that only an Australian could be the U turn in my life, Thanks mate.

@johnnytpb 9 лет назад

awesome man, i love how you tell ppl to listen to the song and don't try to get into the intro picking, i picked up on it because i have an ear, you can't teach that, you just have to open your ears, my second neil young song im learning tonight because of you, props brother!!

@adaptiveagile 9 лет назад

@Tikkurilaten 10 месяцев назад

Where to start..? I've just luxuriated in every second of this wonderful lesson into the mechanics of NY''s classic song. Aged 22 in 1972 when I first listened to 'Harvest' (not 24 like in the song!) and (briefly) living the hippy life with my mates in London, I have been haunted by 'Old Man' (...and also 'The Needle...') for over 50 years. I've had a guitar in the house since my teens but only this year decided I should really learn to play it properly. Yes, I left it late! But boy oh boy, the thrill of being able to play these fantastic tunes - and on my new Taylor guitar - is simply beyond words.. Thank you Justin... Your enthusiasm for NY 's music is absolutely evident and in my opinion should be seen as a vital embellishment to learning, in just the same way that the the picking, hammer-ons and other enhancements so characteristic of NY's style of playing are so brilliantly woven into his music. Thanks again.

@NexusDL12 2 года назад

Great job in slowing down the right hand and explaining some of those strumming techniques. The right hand is where it’s at with this song!

@ChrisDeBeurre 8 лет назад

I don't know if I already told you, but I really like your guitar lessons. Very clear explanations, everything seems so easy when you explain. You're definitely one of the best online guitar teachers. Great job!

@danphipps615 8 лет назад

If you are struggling with this song don't worry about hitting the notes exactly at first, it will come to you. As Justin says it's very difficult to explain note by note in this song. I never play it exactly the same twice running but I've got the feel of the Rhythm and it soon comes together. Great song.

@dickvandenberg7941 6 лет назад

I was also 22 when this song came out, I could play it reasonably well, but stopped playing a few years later. I got a job in the music industry and became a listener in stead of a player. Now two years ago a friend of mine inspired me to start playing again and I did. Your lesson helped me to recover my memory of this song and now I can play it again. Your lessons are great anyway, "It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock'n roll "really helped me out. Thanks Justin!

@shadowsruss5748 10 лет назад

amazing rendition. thanks, man.

@MsJoaniePH 8 лет назад

While it is nice to learn how the original played, there is always room to make any song your own by adapting it to your own style. Still, if learned in its original form, it does expand your list of "tools" to use while playing and makes your style additions a bit more in line with the original feel of the song. Good job Justin!

@me12learnpolish 8 лет назад

You must be an accomplished musician.. i prefer to play like the original as I am not good though I suspect sometime most people try not to play like the original and pass it as an in interpretation because they can't really play like the original due to the difficulty

@user-wu1re9rs6x 7 лет назад

Sibyl Haynes Practice makes perfect, it's the truth. If you bored or watching tv, sit with your guitar and just play through little sections slowly, doesn't matter how slow, eventually you won't even have to think. Practice normally as well of course. Good luck G.

@jeffj318 7 лет назад

You are never too late, Sibyl. Play the best you can and keep on singing. Maybe try Harvest by Neil Young which might be a bit easier. Not to be confused with Harvest Moon by Neil Young. I started playing many decades ago and thanks to Justin and others I am learning how to truly play the songs I love. Best of success.

@AdAstraCan 6 лет назад

I tried this a few years ago and it was too soon for me: I am finding it much easier now. There is a ton going on in this song. Don't put too much pressure on yourself and just do what you can for now and enjoy the ride as you progress. The basic idea with learning music is to slow down and divide it into learnable chunks, though.

@mersmom1 5 лет назад

Love ya man. Been playing since I was thirteen, but after a long break, now sixty...can't believe how easy it is to tune in and learn a song from Justin Guitar. You are a gifted teacher. Don't listen to any of the negative comments. My husband is learning for the first time, and hearing him, I picked up my guitar again and am enjoying all the great resources for learning that are out there now. I remember picking up the arm of the record player and placing it down again and again trying to figure out a song. Now, I just got to Justin Guitar. We are both huge fans and think you are by far the best. We are buying your books. Since I studied classical, I really detest trying to read tablature, so I guess if I had any feedback, I would say that providing real music would help me. I guess that's rare. Keep the little side comments with bits of music theory for us! Your pacing is spot on.

Your technique is real, and it makes some beautiful songs much more accessible to a lot us who want to make it sound a bit more polished, as opposed to simply strumming the guitar. Thank you.

Y'know, Justin, sometimes I look up your lesson videos, even if I already know the guitar parts, because I want to KNOW what it SHOULD sound like, when a GOOD cover version of the song is done properly!.. My man, EVERY TIME I watch you Play and Sing a song, I get INTO it, the whole IDEA of Performing that song for someone!... Cuz when I watch YOU play and sing it, Anyone can SEE, just by the rhythm of your arms, and your whole vibe, that YOU are into it, and that you are doing justice to the song, making it sound GREAT! 👍👍👍

Your detailed breakdown of the strumming/picking combo style has cleared up for me what I've always wanted to actually do exactly right, so that it's as recognizable in the opening notes that I play, as the original is. This is one of those classics that is instantly recognizable in the opening notes, long before the singing begins. I've seen audiences erupt with applause and cheers when they hear this song start up... nice to see just how this song is done just right. Thanks for being a great teacher! Cole

mate you are a really good teacher - born to it. especially for stuff like this that seems easy but sounds terrible if you do it not quite right - ego free zone. I love it.

This is always a favorite when I pull out the guitar at the campfire. I cannot sing as well as the J man, so I have to have help. You can really play this in so many ways. J shows the most technical, but you can go beginner and just strum the chord. As you get better, the start throwing in all those little details that make it so great.

Justin, you're a genius. I'm a fairly competent guitar player (have a few videos up) and I've been playing this song for years but I've never been able to get to sound like Neil. The level of detail you gave (and fretted about - pardon the pun) was really wonderful and greatly appreciated! You're right about listening to the original. I started playing, maybe before you were born, and learning off the original by ear is the best way to do it, this is a fantastic boost up though. Thanks so much for all the great vids you're making. You're the best on RU-vid! Also, I can't sing the high verse either (who can?) so I just sing it an octave lower. It still sounds good.
