If SEVEN NATION ARMY was Delta Blues.... WHITE STRIPES Slide Guitar Cover 

Thanks JJ

That was great

I absolutely love this version. I want to see an entire band perform this.

Thought it was simple as watching u play🤣

Boom, blue note just flicked in there

Well said from another guitar player ✌🏻❤️🎶

how you been playing a song for 43 years when it's only been out for 20

@@Dom-lu5dg he learned it in the future and came back to his timeline

@@Dom-lu5dg He said he's been playing since 12. Not playing this song since 12. Maybe read a little closer before you make an ass of yourself.

Facts!!!! Shits a trip!!!!

He doing the Meg percussion completely wrong ...... It's in time 😂

Yo, he’s also doing the vocals

He always does. All day long!! There are guitar players and then there is Justin a Johnson

And the vocals too I swear

This & Pomplamoose's medley with SNA+Sweet Dreams are on an entirely different level of talent

Having played this more times than I can count on bass and guitar because it's easy beginner stuff.. I'd seriously grown to dislike it. Too much repetition. Growing tired of a song from learning to play it doesn't happen often. But 7NA cause it. This totally revived the song for me. Think JW would approve... But this!! Ya. I'm in love!!

True story - Jack White was "saving" Seven Nation Army for a James Bond movie. He was convinced to publish it anyway. Eventually he wrote a song for a Bond movie anyway.

Justin can make anything sound amazing

@@jmac2482 I remember him playing a shovel and making it sound good

Had the same thought. Made me want to buy a steel guitar.

@@mattzetts6501 that's actually called a resonator guitar. Steel guitar is similar but different

@andrew didn't know that! Will definitely look them up.

Ar-tic-u-la-tion.

spot on review

It's fantastic without your honest opinion.

I used to be able to and what I can tell you is it's all practice. Nobody who's good at an instrument is good just because they were born that way, it's almost always that they were the one born with a passion strong enough to fuel them to practice for hours on end. I miss when I did that, but my joints don't work well enough to play anymore.

Look up Mississippi John Hurt to begin the technique. I saw a video of someone playing one of his songs and I loved it. I then began to learn the style and it didn't take too long to learn the basics. Baby steps will get you there.

@@eve_squared I told my dad once that every great guitarist was once that dorky kid who never left his bedroom cause he was playing his guitar all the time.

Training clarity is easy but time consuming. You need to play very slow, with high focus and as little effort as possible. Once you got the desired level of clarity you can bring it up to speed. Playing seperate lines is not to hard if you can seperate the resources. But if you need the same fingers for both at different times you need to rebuild the memory for both at a time. Thats why even top notch guitar players have huge respect for people who can do it.

Is he not also tapping out the drums?

As long as White didn't show up.

I think one is the other's secret identity...but which one? 😉👍

Hell yeah

Hell yeah please🤟

@Jon Kerr: That would be pretty epic IMO

I had the words humbling and inspiring in my mind before reading your comment. So obviously I owe you a thumbs up. I will add that if instruments could choose players Jack and Justin would be deeply favoured. There are many skilled players but understanding the voice of an instrument is a different challenge. Both IMO are exceptional.

" i bet you 5 your not alive if you don't know his name..."

Jack will see it if he hasn’t already

Jack would scoff and turn it off a quarter of the way through.

@@HarryGoulding jack seems to love old vintage stuff and is deeply steeped in the blues, so i doubt that.

Ok, that would be weird enough that it might actually work really well.

Swampy is a great way to describe this. I like the term bilgewater as well.

You are correct it is brilliant

Apparently, they are remaking Firefly. They should hire this guy to compose music.

That's not nice. Why would this make you think his channel is going to be canceled after 14 videos?

@@crediblehulk420 lol True. I know it's going to be trash with Disney and without Joss. But still...this guy should get some Disney money for his playing.

Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand. It's okay I'm still free, you can't take the sky from me

@@crediblehulk420 I have absolutely zero faith that a Firefly remake will be good. Honestly, even if Joss was spearheading it I'd be very skeptical of it having the same feel.

there's covers of this song in so many styles of music and none of them disappoint

Yes absolutely as a hillbilly and has like a legit hillbilly danger of hide like you're down in the holler running your still and the enemies are right around the corner ready to pounce

Strange example. This song is 19 years old.

No doubt there's still talented musicians. Just so few good new songs that reach the mainstream.

@@WalterLiddy there is no mainstream music industry anymore. No one buys records, tapes, cds, vhs of concerts, DVD of concerts. Great acts from those days still have a following and tour (except during covid which killed a lot of old venues in my area and didn't help artists either). Now new acts come up through social media and RU-vid to gain traction through algorithm. It's driven by ad dollars for single songs with videos rather than selling whole albums and concept albums. Napster and Winamp mp3s and limewire marked beginning of end. Then ipods and istore or similar apps like Spotify. But again most people search up old stuff on those, maybe new songs but often from older bands.

"look what you could be!" What a wonderfully optimistic thought! 😊

First recorded in 1933 by Blind Stripey White.

So awesome as always you have the soul and heart to help so many... Great job. Keep up the awesome work 💜🔥💥🌟🕊️

But…there’s no bass in this song tho

@@torqued111 even though it wasn't recorded on bass, it's still a bassline.

Justin Johnson may not be super well known but I'd argue he's one of the best

It's Bluegrass, not Blues, a different genre. Bluegrass has more a twang to it, and sounds more like country, and the string instruments are usually acoustic. I also think most of the songs have more energy to them.

@@bennytran2780 This is definitely blues. Blues was originally all acoustic and very twangy, many people without any knowledge of music history confuse early blues with early country. They developed from the same roots, after all.

well i really didn't, bit after reading the comments I'm getting even more hyped to learn how to play guitar, just so that in 10 years or so i might be able to do the riffs

​@@sean7902 Many people play guitar for their entire lives and never reach this level. This is the kind of playing you need to enslave yourself to. I hope you get as much joy out of guitar as I have, good luck!

I did.

But you do. 😑

Lucky. I want a Mule sooo bad.

If you're still diving deep in that genre check out "Amos Moses" by Jerry Reed. His plucking style is next level, but it often gets missed because his lyrics are so funny.

Dig Rev Gary Davis and Blind Willie McTell. Once you hear that? man… you’ll be ready to get into some good trouble

HELL YES!

"he loves blues" you say about the world famous blues artist.

@@reecedeyoung6595 in their defense, in today's society he isn't *really* known as a blues artist.... except among people that truly know blues music. Like, MOST people would just throw JW in the lump of "rock guitarist". Let's appreciate the fact that someone recognized Jack White's love of blues, shares that love, and here we are, all together, enjoying this tasty jam of Justin's rendition.

@@therealdannymullen and I guess John mayer is known for his pop music. I think you should give people more credit. People who know Jack white by name have likey interacted with his music enough to know that blues is the primary influence. That or they know him from his self titled releases. Which are very obviously blues.

Slide resonator guitar that is. Great. Staff I got trinity. Mud slide resonator. Guitar and. Love to learn More thanksgiving. For. This. Great video

I picked up a guitar 6 months ago. Best decision I’ve ever made. Go for it mate, you’ll be able to jam along to your favourites in no time, you’re learning every time you pick it up

Take lessons. You improve much faster and being held accountable is far more effective.

Go for it dude, it's way, WAY easier than you think, and I can't describe how rewarding that sense of accomplishment is when you learn a new song. Obviously don't expect to be at this guy's level in a few weeks, but it's just plucking with one hand, and holding a fret down with the other. Can you play this exact thing in a couple months? Probably not. Can you play a close approximation of it that still sounds cool? Absolutely. Remember, learning guitar is an S curve (look it up to get the visualization), so I'd highly recommend starting off with an instructor who can help you establish the technique and muscle memory, as well as make sure you don't start with bad habits (it also helps initially to "force" yourself to commit to it, since that first hurdle can be pretty rough). After that though, you can pretty much learn any song you want, as long as you have the time and patience. You don't need to learn music theory, or how to read sheet music (although you can if that's what you want to do). Just use guitar tabs, they are like sheet music, except way easier to read, they literally tell you which fret/string combination to play for each note. As long as you can count, you can read guitar tabs. You also don't need to be "good" at guitar to enjoy it. I see so many people get discouraged because they aren't as good as famous musicians. It's like comparing yourself to an Olympic athlete, and going "I'm out of shape." Remember, those musicians practice for hours each day, because that's literally their job. They also have teams of audio engineers and millions of dollars of recording equipment. You're never going to sound as good as them, but that doesn't mean you don't sound good. Nor do you have to sound good. As long as you are having fun, that's all that matters. Will you join a band? Maybe, if that's what you want. Is it fine if you never perform, and just learn songs for fun at home? Absolutely. You don't need an "end goal" for music. Just learn what you want, how you want, and make sure to have fun while doing it.

@El Mango 🧐

One of the best versions of 7 Nation Army I've heard

A great alternative version to the “metal” version the WS did…

Awesome, thank you!🎸🎸DOWNLOADABLE TABS: www.musicnotes.com/l/gwjMb

A band called the dead south kinda just did that, it’s not got that Justin vibe but those boys bring there own blue grass vibe, definitely worth a listen
