    After 30 yrs of trying to learn to play that amazing solo, I feel I'm finally making some headway. A few more weeks should do it. I've got all the techniques down and can nearly do it. I love the way you've broken it down into chunks to make it easier. Thank the Lord for UA-cam and for your tutorial. This kind of playing is far more musical sounding than modern stuff. Thanks very much!

  • @rentic888
    @rentic888 4 роки тому +9

    This song is really really difficult, it appears that they combined several pieces of music which they could have used to create at least 10 songs, its difficult to imagine how they managed to make such a song, hats off to all those who managed to play this effortlessly, you guys are incredibly talented, i can and would rather play this piece of music on the keyboard definately not on a guitar, but that will not produce those kind of vibrations and sound effects...

  • @brianmenke
    @brianmenke 7 років тому +3

    Thank you so so much for this. I have been working on it almost every day for four months. Got all the notes down now and just trying to get it dialed in just right. I'll be rocking this at the next family reunion thanks to you! I just can't thank you enough!!

  • @chrisjames1924
    @chrisjames1924 2 роки тому +1

    This is one of those songs that’s easy and very quick to learn in a superficial level but, and it’s a big BUT, to play it properly, with style and panache, it’s pretty difficult to nail. If you can’t bend accurately, you may as well not bother. One by of the best ever, for sure.

  • @autocrow
    @autocrow 8 років тому +4

    The harmony part starting at 20:00 gets me every time. It's fast and weird. I'd be happy to simply fill in the empty spot in my solo with something that sounded OK. Everyone teaches that part different and I can't get it to sound right to me. Thanks for the lesson. Awesome solo. One of the best guitar solos ever. IMO

  • @ThatOldMan2112

  • @michaeltitus7821
    @michaeltitus7821 9 років тому +2

    Thanks Guitarreference. I have been playing this solo for about forty years and of course play it with my own inflections. As a heavily influenced Gilmore and Clapton strat player I get some of there intonation and styling in everything I play. However I been looking at Felder for years and how he does things with his chops. You captured some of these on point and I have been adding them into my arsenal. Thanks so much for this great solo break down.

    The best I've come across to this tutorial so far, would be even better if all strings were mentioned though, I had a real problem with lick 11 in particular, 10-7, 10,7 was mentioned but not the strings.

  • @dt28469
    @dt28469 8 років тому +2

    Phase 1: Fiigure out in your head the individual notes/durations/method played, by listening to it repeadedly
    Phase 2: Figure out what combination of strings/frets and which fingers work best to replicate those notes
    phase 3: Begin repeating that pattern until you start to attain melodic fluidity
    phase 4: Play fluidly, pick up on errors
    phase 5: Refine, repeat

  • @tomaaron6187
    @tomaaron6187 7 років тому

    Top notch, and thanks. I like the pace and clear explanation. I really like the chord being shown before notes.Just a tip to beginners. No need to copy note per note. I only like about 2/3rds of the original solo. I improvise..ldo the same if playing on your own as it flows better. I also strum a quick chord during the now and then.

  • @runrabbitrun4342
    @runrabbitrun4342 9 років тому +4

    I have to thanks you for taking the time to do this, But for me the hard part is the break up of the licks, The way you broke them down are like in mid lick or phrasing of a memorable lick so for me it makes it harder to hear in my head, I find myself go past your stopping points and filling in the areas not yet covered, If this makes any sense at all. I think you'll get what im saying. Thanks for the time.

  • @SaxJockey
    @SaxJockey 5 років тому

    Thank you sir, this lesson is very helpful indeed, the numbering of each lick has helped me keep track of the learning process. I have referred to other lessons previously, but notice that you have a few additional (crucial) flourishes/grace notes/stops that will help me get closer to the flavour recording. Lick #8 is a beauty (sort of Johnny Be Good style), but getting up to speed on it is another matter 😨. Practice...practice....practice 😂.
