    Excellent lesson. No-nonsense. Great camera angle, shows both hands, not a lot of panning and cutting, just a good, hard-core "this is how you play it" video. My favorite. Thanks very much!

    I am studying your lessons for this song, Lindsay Buckingham, Jimmie Page, Scorpions, etc. It is such a blessing that you have taken time to post them. Your talent and style are phenomenal, and the results are great lessons, and magical musical experiences. Thank you so much for posting!

    Thank heavens for UA-cam and thank heaven for people like yourself that take time out to put tutorials together. Learning a song the old way by 'ear' would have taken me an eternity so cheers for another lesson learnt!!

    Love the way you play and explain everything here. Love the theory. Love the way jazz seems so fluid and simple here. Not overwhelming but just challenging enough to motivate!

  • @abejacgot
    @abejacgot 8 років тому +9

    A pleasure to listen and learn from you, as I appreciate the "theory" you throw in explaining the derivation of some of the sounds. For me, that adds value to the lesson aside from learning this beautiful song. Many thanks!

    I've gotta tell ya Andy that all of the acoustic song lessons you've posted on your UA-cam Channel has been very well received at my shows. I've always been a stiggler for medleys - even my own original songs. So far, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, etc. have been received with great applause and appreciation from my audiences. I'm looking forward to adding this one to one of my sets. Thank you so much Andy!

  • @bdizzle715
    @bdizzle715 8 років тому +6

    phenomenal song! I tremendously appreciate lessons like this. very clear. I like the string and fret callouts like G4, D3, E2, etc... so much better and clearer than traditional '3rd string, 4th fret' method. many, many thanks! great job! I was intimidated by trying to learn this song,but after finding this video I'm going for it! :-)

    When broken down to just the acoustic guitar it's amazing how James Taylor-esque it is! Thank you.

  • @allancrow134
    @allancrow134 5 років тому +1

    It is an awesome song and I totally agree it will find its place in the classic American songbook. A few years back I managed to pick up an ear version of this song using a flat pick, the occasional finger, and no capo. My other half likes to sing it and insisted I learn it...and I really had to work at it. When I was figuring it out I caught the descending chromatic...and worked around that....very observant of you to point that out. Thanks for great break down. I'm going to search UA-cam to find the Jesse Harris version. :)

  • @dirkardostevergreen4827
    @dirkardostevergreen4827 8 років тому

    Thanks for the lesson. I kind of learnt this song in a sloppy kind of way using basic chords but it's nice to finally see how to do it properly.

  • @triplescale
    @triplescale 4 місяці тому

    thank you so much! I changed that "E7" in the 12/13 fret position, down to another shape - wich is: (Capo is 0 here) D string: 2, G string 1, H string 4, E sting 0. You still have that open ringing sound, but you don´t have to skip a string when picking

    Excited to find your video. I heard the Pat Metheny version when researching guitars, one of my passions. Pat’s version has that incredible base because he had a specially made baritone guitar which he played exclusively on his album, One Quiet Night.
    The guitar is said to be so unique that it’s changing the standard for baritone guitars.

  • @daveburnham9111

    Thannnkyouuu somuch for taking the time to teach those of us who have passion for songs like this and others, interestingly, the name of the street I live on is "Vista Del Sol", and to me, that is what this song and music means to me.

  • @antheamason1651
    @antheamason1651 2 роки тому

    That F#13 is a perfect example of proper four party harmony jazz voicing. I know this because I had lessons a LONG time ago from an amazing instructor named Harry Leheigh. Great tutorial btw, also ur Purple Rain tutorial was excellent.

    Hey, i want to express my gratitude for your great lessons. It´s truly inspirational to see such dedication and skill. I was wondering if you´re planning to do some Rory Gallagher, he is one of my favourite guitarists but sadly there are no quality lessons of his music on youtube.

    thought this was going to be a lot easier to learn than it was to be honest! with the descending bass it sounds like blackbird so i thought it would be of a similar difficulty but was mistaken. Despite that, this video does a really good job of teaching it, well done
