    Love that song! I still remember the first time I heard it. I was a little kid and my mom was ironing with the radio on. I thought the girl was singing “I’m your peanut, I’m your butter.”! I think you should cut me a little slack, because I was exposed to bubblegum like “Sugar, Sugar “ and “Crimson and Clover.” But great guitar lesson. This is really rock and roll!

    Those Fender Jaguar's have the period cool in them with all the old-school slide switches, etc. It's got that 60's sort of look and vibe to go with it's chimey-strat-alike sound. Add a little tremolo, touch of chorus & reverb --- and voilla!!

    Listening to the record I wasn't sure if the first notes on the solo were a slide to Bb - G or B - G. I thought it was one or the other but hearing and seeing you put me straight. Thanks.

    What can I say Bruce, your working knowledge of the fretboard is amazing, a product of many years of practice, I would say. It's also plain to see your a stickler for perfection & ya do a helluva job achieving it.
    It is always a treat to watch someone of you caliber. Thanks for all your time Bro!!!
    Big Fan,
    Mike

    Thank you for this fine example and the slowing-down of the more difficult pieces.
    I have one advice, though. Why don't you play the three strokes on the Em and A chord (and later on the Am en D chord) up-down-up, instead of three times down (what you play now)? It sounds much better, because it gives a more prominent pulse.
    You are doing it the (IMO) 'right' way on 11:56, so I know it is 'in your system'. I would prefer to play that way right from the start.
    Happy practicing!

    Thanks for the nice tutorial. I can't quite exactly figure out what you are doing on 5:20/5:21? I see index-finger on 5th fret A-string, ring-finger on 7th fret D-string... but what about your middle-finger? It looks like it's on the 6th fret D-string? is it "damping" the G-string?

    Shocking Blue does not use all down strokes. Also, for the less familiar chords, you should show finger positions. B dom 7 sus 4 for example (I thought that was a Bm chord in the song). Good lesson,however, showing all parts of the song.
