it actually might be my favorite drum song ever, i am a guitar guy so i dont usually latch onto the drums but something about the drumming on this song i just love it and i always air drum to it.
@@davidmoran5431 Skip Beat, that is actually a great name for a drummer LOL i think Stewart Copeland may be my favorite drummer but this may be my favorite drum song.
Geez how many times I've heard Lindsey is underrated. Why are there so many people posting videos and guitar riffs of his if he's underrated? He was right for Fleetwood Mac and nothing other than that in my opinion. I watched Tusk concert broadcast on PBS last night and was a snoozer Stevie fest.
Tim is a passionate guy on guitar and about guitar. However, I have never seen him have so much fun and be so excited with a song before. If I had only one song to do at a jam ..... this would be it.
Bruce and I were in a band together in the late 70's named Aragorn. "Go Your Own Way" was one of the very few non-original songs we played. Most of our songs were written by Bruce and some were really good. His and my guitar playing styles were so different that they complemented each other. Our band had a lot of potential but alas, out of nowhere, one day Aragorn ceased to exist. I never did get answer why but that was the funnest time of my life and losing the band almost made me quit playing guitar altogether.
I have always loved Lindsey's guitar sound on this song (ALL of his guitar sounds on this song!) and my absolute favorite thing which they barely mention is the feedback swells on the first guitar solo. I love how it ramps up and feels like it's almost is going to get away from him and then he goes onto the next phrase. I think it makes it powerful and emotional.
Remarkable demonstration. While only Lindsay can ever cop any Lindsay riff convincingly, Mr Watson definitely conveys the vibe of every part. Patience articulation and controlled frenzy is The Buckingham way, a uniquely gifted virtuoso like no other
I had the pleasure of engineering the Out of the Cradle album alongside Kevin Killen. What a crazy time. I found a recording with isolated tracks of this song. I play the acoustic part in our local cover band....and the sound of that part has been tugging at my ears for months now. For anyone that is interested, I discovered tonight that the part is not played D-shape capo'd at the third fret as Tim does here. (sorry Tim, not meaning to correct you!!!). I firmly believe it is capo'd at the 5th fret and played in C-shape. Simply lift your third finger (E) for the alternating first chord......second chord is Gsus4. Finally the third chord is an F with the third of the chord (A) lifting off for the open G note. So to my ear….the C note on the second string carries throughout. Boom.....instant sound on the record. The chorus is simply Am F G. (Need to double check…it may be Gsus4) After watching Lindsey record his parts....he rarely tuned his guitar to A440. Most often he would double/triple/quadruple tracks by having me varispeed the multitrack to the pitch of his guitar as best I could. It's that Buckingham "chorus" sound that everyone seems to chase. It's done on GYOW as well. The guitar is also EQ'd with not much bottom end.
My favorite song by Fleetwood Mac song. I learned how to play this and it was never quite "right". Listening to you two guys opened my eyes to how much is actually going on in this song. Tim you are a genius. Bruce is a great guitarist to jam with. I see the Pierce/Watson band on the horizon :) Well done guys
Lindsey's solo tone on this tune is stellar. It's got that feel that the amp is about to self destruct... but in a totally musical way. Great job, Tim! This was fun!
This is awesome! One of my all-time favorite songs to play along with! People don't realize how "windmill-y" and thrashy and kind of heavy this song really is ... it's just super fun to wail over this in D Minor busting out all your best 70s rock licks and accompanying 70s rock faces! Great bass line too. Fyi, for those who want to nerd out, he got his drive the same way Ritchie Blackmore did...using the preamp of a 2 track reel to reel (sony or awia) to overload the preamp of a marshall or hiwatt. During this time most his "heavy" chords and solos were played on a 70s cream colored "white" Les Paul Custom. In The Sound City movie / docs there is some classic photos of him tearing it up on that TV white Les Paul Custom at Sound City.
Classic jam !! One of my all-time favorites. Tim is not only one of the best guitar players on the planet, but has an incredible ear picking out all the variables in those familiar riffs... And Bruce.... there's not enough room to list all the great things about his work !! Really enjoyed this, 👍👍
I saw a doc about the making of Rumours where Lindsey said that when he came up with the 12 string part (that Tim plays), that it was the key to the rhythm of the song for him. It bridged what the drums were doing against the straight rhythm guitars. I love that kinda shit!! :)
@@musicmann1967 Ray Lindsey, Brett Tuggle and Neale Haywood were the three guitarists who played rhythm guitar on live Fleetwood Mac tours between 1977-2018, mostly in the shadows. The main parts they played were the acoustic six string rhythm on “Go Your Own Way”, again capoed at the 8th fret. Most concert videos do not show them, but they are there. When Lindsey performed the song as a solo artist in later years, he would use a Boss Loop Station and pre-record that part for playback on the song while he played his Rick Turner Model 1.
Here is a comprehensive breakdown of how to play the song. The guy in this video also gives an alternative way to play the acoustic six string part with a capo at the 3rd fret, but this is just a more comfortable way to play it and not how it was played on the album. ua-cam.com/video/TCOJETSbfGg/v-deo.html
You can see Lindsey’s guitar tech Ray Lindsey playing the part live in 1977 at the 2:11 mark here on a six string with the 8th fret capo: ua-cam.com/video/GfVW_d_ufK4/v-deo.html
Tim, this is my favorite of yours so far. Great tune and and I enjoyed how you and Bruce broke down the individual parts. Would love to see more of this content.
I learned to play fingerstyle because of this song. Lindsey buckingham is a genius and an underrated guitar hero. He plays for the song, the bigger picture it's all that matters to him
Lindsey Buckingham had amazing skills, but for me his most amazing skill is that he wrote unforgettable melodies in his solos. Everything he played had great melodies, even the rhythm parts and chords.
Thanks guys, you taught me there was more cool parts to this song than I realized, plus a Gold Top always sounds and looks cool. Peace, Love, and Happiness !!!
I think I figured out the acoustic tuning. It's FFCGCC. It starts with an open strum, then hold the 3rd string 2nd fret, strum, then open strum, repeat back and forth, really easy and flowing and fun. Then in the chord transition, you hold the 2nd fret 5th and 6th string, strum that 3 times, then move up and barre the 5th fret, repeat the same strumming as the opening, going back and forth between 3rd string 5th and 7th fret. This passage is a thing of beauty and makes me respect and admire Lindsey's playing even more. So much fun playing this on an acoustic 12 string. Total joy. Impossible to be unhappy while playing this.
Whoa! First I found out that Tim played what I thought was Neal Geraldo on a John Waite album, then what I thought was a guitar solo from Richie Sambora on "Runaway," and now I've found out that Bruce tours with Foreigner? What about Mick Jones? They hire this guy for rhythm!? Mind-blown, like a Marshall!
great vid guys, gonna do a cover of this asap. How bout that outro guitar right before the song fades out, it's goin like da da da da da da, grungy sounding like a old phone hung up sound, a mean sounding dissonant chord it is I believe. You didn't touch upon that, but any discerning guitarist is all over that. I'll figure it.
it actually might be my favorite drum song ever, i am a guitar guy so i dont usually latch onto the drums but something about the drumming on this song i just love it and i always air drum to it.
it''s just an awesome kind of skipbeat
@@davidmoran5431 Skip Beat, that is actually a great name for a drummer LOL
i think Stewart Copeland may be my favorite drummer but this may be my favorite drum song.
@@newwavepop haha, thank you. Not a Copeland fan but will go study some now :) .
So I'm not the only guitar player who's fascinated by the guitar work on this song
Brad Anderson The timing in this song makes me so crazy. Still working on getting it down!
Are you serious? Buckingham is a guitar god! (Boyfriend from hell, but guitar god.)
Not at all, plus the production of the whole song is remarkable
No it's amazing.
@@lisellesloan3191 I am of the understanding that Stevie Nicks is the girlfriend from hell ?
Lindsey Buckingham is an underrated guitar genius. So happy you are breaking down such a great guitar song.
He's great. We always loved him. And we were guitar nerds back in the 70s hooked on Page, Clapton, Beck etc. Lindsey definitely had top skills.
Geez how many times I've heard Lindsey is underrated. Why are there so many people posting videos and guitar riffs of his if he's underrated? He was right for Fleetwood Mac and nothing other than that in my opinion. I watched Tusk concert broadcast on PBS last night and was a snoozer Stevie fest.
SirVicconius hardly under-rated. He is in the hall of fame
Sir Vic and Lindsay has never asked to borrow a pick and kept it....
Jesus he killed it

so right!

Except it wasn’t a twelve string…it was a six-string Dobro, capo at the 8th fret.
@@AllenGarberGuitarFun I could swear Lindsey said it was a capo'ed 12 string, but I defer to you.

Lindsey is so underrated as a guitarist, Wonderful musician! Is solo albums have some sensational work on them! =)
Thanks Tim and Bruce! What a fun video. You both are killin' on this song, which is one of my all time faves too. Love your guitar sounds. YESSSSS
What a great lesson! I love the back and forth between the two of you.
When discussing the technical and artistic aspects of a song then playing it beautifully becomes an art form of its own kind.
Tim, just wanted to say thank you for what you do. I've learned tons from you. Thank you sir.
These guys r amazing at dissecting this song
Bruce is my hero! Keep going.
Tim, this is my favorite of yours so far. Great tune and and I enjoyed how you and Bruce broke down the individual parts. Would love to see more of this content.

These two guys are the coolest!
A Biiiiiig thank you for reminding us of this all-time classic.
Thanks Tim...superb breakdown as usual and special thanks for highlighting Lindsey B creative playing and producing skills, the Man's a genius.
I love this Internet UA-cam stuff, I was jamming with you guys great stuff it never gets old love it
Great to see you playing with the greats, talking about it, jamming!🍺👍🏼 Beato needs to jam with peeps just to relax, chill, play, laugh🍹
That was so much fun. Thanks Tim, for bringing it.
Two fabulous guitarists! Amazing how full it sounds with just the two guys...
Wow!! Incredible playing and fun to watch.
Top ten greatest bands of all time.
I swear to God, that was fantastic. Gonna be lots of Masterclass diving this weekend.
Great Solo in that song, love the drums as well, true heavy beat
That was F A N T A S T I C ! ! ! Thanks Guys. One of my all time favorite tunes.

There is no 12-string on the album version. Lindsey uses a pick to strum a six-string Dobro which is often confused as being an acoustic 12-string.
More of these deep dive videos would be great, I loved this.
AWESOME !!!! One of my all time favorite rock songs..
Nice to have a couple of pro's break down a song like this...thanks
I find your playing inspiring to me.
I’m inspired to set up my gear in the backyard and hurl rocks at it.
Tim, the parties at your house must be like concerts with an amalgamation of all the talent that walks through the door.
In the prcoess learning this song & been hunting around for some tips. This tutorial is brilliant! Has really help me out. Thanks!
Here’s a major tip…the acoustic part on the album is not a twelve string, it is a 6-string Dobro with the capo at the 8th fret.
Tim Pierce can currently be heard on the soundtrack of Stranger Things 2...("Runaway"...Bon Jovi)
AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!!
3-5 5-7 is the foundation of all rock
Wow! ... Just, WOW!
That was great! Bruce has to show us a Foreigner song :-)
Hot blooded double vision style...
Two masters 👍🏻 Brilliant and thanks boys 👍🏻
Love your touch on your bends and vibrato.
Ace. It's often about the choices isn't it. Buckingham has the thought processes of a producer. It has always been really evident.
Great job guys, 👏👏🤘👏👏🤘👏👏
wow so much fun to watch and learn
this was really awesome as a lesson and just to watch !
it got me motivated to learn this song from this video. cheers tim and brian truly fantastic!
I love Foreigner! And that Fleetwood Mac tune is pretty darn rockin'! + cool slight Fish Eye lens effect on the production!
Great Video Tim!!Thanks for Posting.Bruce Watson Super Cool Dude:-)
That was very cool I love to see you too great guitar players breakdown of song and really get it to it thank you so much for that, more please!!!
Love the content.
Great, great stuff Tim. Very freeing to see how these songs go together very normal chords and pentatonic licks. Gives me hope.
Love that gold top Les Paul
Awesomesauce!!! That angry Lindsey tone.
Thanks Tim and Bruce...this was stellar:)
Just a great song!
That Danelectro is a beauty
Whoa! First I found out that Tim played what I thought was Neal Geraldo on a John Waite album, then what I thought was a guitar solo from Richie Sambora on "Runaway," and now I've found out that Bruce tours with Foreigner? What about Mick Jones? They hire this guy for rhythm!? Mind-blown, like a Marshall!
Great work. I guess they also liked mike Campbell’s version. He went on tour with Fleetwood Mac this year.
Great opening jam!
👍
Great playing great song 👍🎸
absolutely great watch !!!!
Love it... Could you Please do a lesson on that solo? Please and Thank you...Love your channel
Bravo 👏. That was 12 minutes of fun.
Great video - thanks!
Love this kind of video.
Tim! As always that was awesome! Thank you!
that was so much fun
That was great! Thanks for sharing!
I liked learning it at 0.75 speed - it's more hypnotic too - thanks for the lesson it was soulfull :)
That was awesome, thanks guys! That 12 string intro sounds dead on just like the record Tim! 👍
It’s a six-string Dobro on the album, capo at the 8th fret. No twelve string.
This was/is awesome. Thanks!!!!!
One of my all time faves!...you guys are freakin amazing!
Truly Awesome! You guys are great 👍
Outstanding
This is so great, thank’s you guys,
The best guys👍
That is So Cool Guys
excellent as usual!
Amazing as usual!!
So is your channel!
Awesome tutorial.
AWESOME!
Tim, great vid. Oh, and the beard suits you. Well done.
I don't have a 12 string. In absence of 12 string, I went single coil + mild slapback + A touch of chourusy reverb....Sounds ok.
The complexity of classic rock music, is actually often on the same level as orchestral classical music.
great vid guys, gonna do a cover of this asap. How bout that outro guitar right before the song fades out, it's goin like da da da da da da, grungy sounding like a old phone hung up sound, a mean sounding dissonant chord it is I believe.
