Whiskey in the Jar - Melody & Chords - Mandolin Lesson (Beginner & Intermediate) 

Wow, at last someone who shows simple & informative instructions. Not played for a while & want to play again.

Great lesson as always. Thank you!

And jerry Garcia too laddie.

Great work! Excellent and more than complete presented! Thank you very much!

I originally heard this one from Jerry Garcia and Dawg’s recording of it.

Thank you for this Mike! I love this tune, having first heard it in the 1960s on a folk music oriented TV show. The basic melody has stuck in my head all these decades! Even without your vid, I could probably have figured out some of the melody just from memory, but now, I won't have to do that. I'm just learning how to play mandolin, and loving it; doing ok with fingering the melodies, barely able to play chords (so far). If not for an injury to my left thumb in my teens, I might have picked up guitar (or maybe mandolin??) in college. But it's never too late - I recently had surgery to fix my thumb and now it works like new. It took months for my left hand to wrap around the neck properly, but now it feels very comfortable. I'm loving every minute finally playing the instrument I was given 40 years ago. From the same TV show, I remember a song called "The Whistling Gypsy", which had a similar feel...I've already got that in my fingers.

Thanks Mike great tune, and nicely arranged for the mandolin, I saw Thin Lizzy play this at Liverpool empire theatre with Brian Robertson on lead, fantastic night.

Great lesson. Nice Telluride print in the background too

Hey Mike, love the lessons! Just picked up the mandolin about a month ago and I gotta say the jam session section of your videos are great! Did you do a video on playing the intermediate melody? I see it on the tab but couldn't find a video on it.

Brilliant, could you do a lesson on Fisherman's blues please 🙏

We are not going to sing it because we are not Irish.... your killing me Mike, that was to funny. And as always great video.

Do you have any right had lessons?

don't look up the metallica version
