Hey, everyone! Thanks so much for checking this out. Hope it is helpful to some!
Hi Gretchen, I'm just curious if you offer in-person guitar workshops or one-on-one instruction? 💙
You’re welcome, and yes, very helpful! You have an outstanding grasp of music and how to explain it! Again, well done!!!
Thank you very much. " You so smart... ".
This was killer! Thank you very much Gretchen. Would love to see you tour Australia with either Zapparella or your own band. Please please please.
My 9 year old niece is learning how to play guitar. This is an excellent lesson for her to improve her playing
Gretchen is a real guitar brain. Explains it sensibly and solidly. Great stuff.
Gretchen,
Thanks for such a well researched, thorough, attention-to-detail, excellent overview of the guitar part of the Immigrant Song.
Great lesson and explanation. Your love and enthusiasm for what you are doing is wonderful. Thanks so much!
What a great video. Thank you Gretchen, the final minute of the video where you gave us (your students) an assignment was really enjoyable.
I love this lesson. Fretwork, picking technique, theory, and the mystery chord.
Fascinating.
This is one of the best instructional guitar videos I've seen.
Thank you so very much for sharing your incredible knowledge and artistry. Yet another reason for us all to worship Gretchen Menn.
Really love these lessons. You're a great instructor. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for checking it out!
Holy crap, this has been bothering me for half an hour, and you, ma'am, have cracked the code. The way you explained the bass frequencies resonating with the guitar makes so much sense! I was hearing that low C with the bass EQ'ed out, but that's because of the higher frequencies of the bass that resonate just like you described here! It's all so clear to me now, and finally this song sounds correct when I play it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and you have earned this sub a million times over! You ROCK!!
Thank you so much for this amazing lesson! I have never been able to play the main riff smoothly or comfortably. Practicing your up/down stroke approach I am now finally able to play this riff smoothly and more naturally. Also, now I finally know the mystery chord fingering! Invaluable lesson. I look forward to more like it. Cheers!
i love how passionate you are about music thanksss
Gretchen, I appreciate your solid background of music theory, your diverse knowledge is evident in the way you play and the way you teach, thank you !! A couple of years ago I watched a video of you playing Eric Johnson's instrumental composition of "Cliffs of Dover", and since then, it has eluded my rediscovery. I love your rendition of "Dazed and Confused"!
You have a great teaching style Gretchen. Uncluttered and straight to the point with tremendous clarity!
Yes! Subscribed!
Awesome lesson, and "When The Levy Breaks" is too! I should be embarrassed about how long I have been playing these songs wrong but hell, everyone else has been too, ha ha ha! The way you map the chord out, show the timing, and explain everything makes it very easy to learn, Thanks!
Extremely clear presentation! Great job!!
Thank you for sharing your expertise and your presentation is so spot on!
Awesome. Thanks Gretchen.
Gretchen, You're Awesome! Thank you for being such a technician and breaking that down for us mere mortals! :-)
So well done. Awesome. Thanks.
I learned more from this video than I ever knew about this song!
Thanks Gretchen
🔥
Thanks Gretchen. Am enjoying your lessons. You’re an amazing instructor
you are a great teacher! and understand the nuances of Page so well! wonderful. Thanks.
Great lesson. Really enjoyable. I'm playing guitar 30 years and everyday is still a school day. Just discovered Zepparella. You guys ROCK.
Thank you for posting this, very helpful!
What great lessons, on my favourite music! Glad I found this, thanks a lot!
So talented and beautiful.

Great lesson ...thank you so much for this!
You are the hottest guitar teacher in the world, who agrees?
Amen brother Brings new meaning for "Hot for Teacher"! I would never want to disappoint her!
Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure I agreeee
Thank you G. Inspirational lesson, clear instruction. Most appreciative. Led Zepp arrived and were at their peak through my formative adolescent years. Aviation career fini, picked up the guitar again after 45 years hiatus with a passion and vengeance. Better late to the party than never. Love Zepparalla. You gals do led Zepp material better than anyone since ...Led Zepp. Best wishes.
Very well done!
Great lesson, thank you.
Thank You... You are a very good teacher 🙂

Gretchen, I just saw you in Murfreesboro this weekend. Awesome show. Please come back soon. This video is great. You definitely know your stuff and know how to teach it as well. Perfect and Thank you.
Very good. In particular, I really liked the explanation of the C in the mystery chord. Good challenge.
Very well explained.
That was a _great_ #*!@ing lesson! I can't believe you offer this for free. Thanks!
Great teaching!
Terrific! Many thanks! 🙏
Thank YOU for watching. :-)
This is a very detailed instruction thank you very much for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. Great Teaching. Learned a lot.
I don't know how I found this channel, but it rocks! Thanks for the breakdown, keep em coming!
Will do! More to come in the next few weeks. :-)
Hey Dimitri, here's how I found this channel. Been Enjoying ever since. UA-cam video: Led Zeppelin When The Levee Breaks by Zepparella
Thank's a lot!!! Merci beaucoup!!! Great teaching!!!
Cool! Thanks for sharing Mrs.Gottardo
Awesome. Thanks for sharing! :)
Excellent, Gretchen. I'm here because i wasn't playing it exactly right and I just discovered with your help my timing is off. Thank You
Even though I have no musical talent or ability I really enjoy these videos! Mostly because I love all of you ladies dearly and I don’t get the chance to see you nearly as often as I would like! I also enjoy the insight into how y’all perform this incredible music so well!
You're an artist of words! xoxo
Very cool, very informative video!! Well done!
Thank you so much!
Excellent job explaining this!
Glad if it was helpful!
That's an excellent writing assignment. Well done, again.
Love to hear what you come up with!
Gretchen, I love you! Greetings from Germany/Bavaria
Excellent Gretchen ... simple is BEST !
I have absolutely no idea what the hell your talking about but I’ve enjoyed every bit of it
this is very cool... I love the learning and the secret chord.. I just ordered the dragon telecaster.
Fascinating to hear Gretchen expound on this thrilling number, clearly with great insight and technique, but it also shows how creative Jimmy Page was back in the day.
I'm a bit less dazed and confused thanks to this rather special video. Thank you Gretchen.
LOVING THIS ....I'VE REALLY LOVED THIS SONG SO MUCH ...CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR AWSOME GUITAR PLAYING 👍 🌹🌸🌹🌸🌹🌸
Thank you so much. Really glad if it might be helpful!
I like everything I see, and thanks
Awesome presentation. I really appreciate it when people figure out one of those unusual chords in a famous track, it can make all the difference. Also loved the insight into how Jimmy Page might have created it with Bonham's drums in his mind (or in his ears!).
Very good tone as well !!
Thank you! I'll be discussing my rig in the last video of this series for my fellow tone geeks. :-)
Wow!
And that wow is not because you’re pretty, it’s because of just how informative and detail oriented you are in your lesson! Incredible teaching style here! Very well done, thank you. One of the first songs I went after. I’d be curious to see how you teach ‘Babe I’m Gonna Leave You’ because that is what I went after when everybody was going after Stairway.
Wow, this is awesome thank you.
My pleasure! Thanks for checking it out.
great. thank you very much.
Awesome guitar ,, real talent!
I real intellectual explanation of the song and an interesting chord. Thanks !
Hola Gretchen, me gusta mucho tus enseñanzas, abrazos... 🤗🤗🤗
Hullo Gretchen. Greetings from a Glaswegian, tho in the States now. I know that there is an
infinitesimal chance of this falling under yer eyes. But I very much want you to know how many of us old head axe slingers over in Scotland whom absolutely love Zepparella. Yer a bonny bunch of wee lassies. Just lovely. And we, in spite of our pride are learning from ye !
Haste Ye Back, Zepparella. 🍀🌹🍀
you are wonderful, i'm from brazil in the state of ceara, your band is visually and musically beautiful.
Thank you!
EXCELLENT+!
nice lesson,,, i like it
Yeah, Love it.
Super leçon merci ! En espérant vous voir jouer en France bientôt !
Mr] page you must give this guitar player all the respect she deserves. Don't be envious. She is showing us all how the master did it in the first place!!!!!!
What a great lesson. When this Covid thing is over. I really wish you guys would come to S.W PA area (Pittsburgh, Greensburg, or even Morgantown WV) I would jump at the chance in seeing you guys. Again so great of a lesson
Food for the eyes the heart the ears and the soul and I'm still a sucker for that bass player hot as hell
I love how your smile almost to giggles as you do up and down strokes or counting. when all the research and wood shedding is done, you're playing by feel, so audible counting is not normal. as a bassist and guitar player I was thinking exactly - where is the C in the outro chord. your diligence and research are top notch. way to go. Ü ♫
Thanks Gretchen! I always played that C in the mystery chord... except for that I had the rest of the song right.
Thank you! Good homework assignment too.
Very nice
I love music but I have no musical talent. She's speaking complete Greek to me but it was amazing watching this instructional video with all of the intricacies. How can someone remember all of that? It's really amazing. I'm an accomplished athlete but when it comes to music I'll stick with listening.
You teach very well.
Very cool...thank you, I'm a french fan !
Thanks!
I am subscribed, great
I love Gretchen.
Nicely done. Lovely guitar.
jvb
Nice. Good explanation and detail. Thank you very much. Yes, simple riffs are the hardest to write, for sure.
Whew, and some are the masters of that. Jimmy Page, of course, Ritchie Blackmore, AC/DC... so many were brilliant at something deceptively difficult.
Gretchen my lovely. We all know who you are, that’s why we are here😀👍
Thanks for the guitar lessons. You're an awesome lovable person. I wish I could play the slide as good as you. For some reason I always sound like I'm killing an animal or something.
awesome
Awesome
Wow, what a terrific lesson, Gretchen! Thanks! Now I'll have to check out some more of 'em! (And yes, you're absolutely lovely. If ya don't mind my sayin'.)
