As a fan and player of prog rock and jazz (on piano) I've always adored this song. The effect of the drums playing straight 4/4 and the riff playing in a sort of 5/4 gives a sense of staggering, like an old dog or a drunk staggering or stumbling down the street. It's fabulous. Your rendition is just about perfect, by the way.
Thankyou Justin , another great lesson , this is one Jimmy actually mentioned in an interview stating this is one of the hardest zeppelin tunes he has had to play for them over the years !! Great job bud
Thanks for playing so slow so we can copy notes on our own tab paper to have song!!!! You play this song GREAT & THANKS A LOT!!! Please do more songs like this.
Thank you Justin .The true value of a teacher is giving the students the means to improve without the teacher being there.I have always followed the dictum ,practice slowly,learn fast…..Now by showing me Transcibe I can play Black Dog at 57%speed and realise I still am too slow ,but by taking that speed up 1 percent up each time the practice should get it up to speed soon enough ta.
I remember learning that years back, I probably drove everyone mad with it until I got it down; great track from my favourite band. Good technique and amp balance will get you the sound you want.
I think he said somewhere that he plans to re-shoot all the potato looking videos at some point. There are a couple of Red Hot Chili Peppers tunes as well like Can't Stop and Under the Bridge.
Thank you, Justin. Very helpful. (Regarding 'Transcribe': for linux users this function can be delivered by an application called "Play It Slowly". Worked for me on Ubuntu Linux.
Thanks man! As' an intermediate player, I love learning simple yet classic riffs like in Black Dog.They do a lot to help my confidence and I appreciate when you upload one. Another poster just requested a song by Deep Purple. I too would like to suggest a Deep Purple song. The basic riff and rhythmic portion of Knocking On Your Back Door. There are a few people that posted playing this song but not in lesson mode and I really could use some help with it. Keep up the great work you do and not just in the music scene. God Bless you Justin.
Today's session programm is sorted. One of my favourites of all times. Thanks, Justin! If you haven't seen Black Dog cover by Alison Krauss and Robert Plant, I'd recomend to check it out. It's brilliant beyond words really.
it litteraly goes out of tempo , in the sick riff most explained here, its one on tempo, the second off, and then the 3d time its o 5/4 so it has one more note , for magically get back on main tempo.. idols of riffing it
Sadly Justin the overzealous LZ copyright attack dogs hound UA-cam into "suspected infringement mute audio" mode. Even on many clearly educational/instructional videos. Thank you for uploading though and have a great 2018 :)

"click....yeah we're gunna go"............love this song. Great job Justin.

I drove my parents nuts with this one. They used to like the song anyways..
Thanks Justin. Most helpful! I had an idea of what Jimmy Page was doing when I listened to it but you helped me get to the finished product quickly :)
Thank you! Great lesson!
You're very welcome!
thank you for posting. I finally heard the hitch I've been struggling with and it made sense! Really well done.
A Day in the Life lesson please
It would be nice if you mad a video of the other riffs and a way to tie them nicely together.
HAPPY NEW YR Justin- Great JOB HERE!
Thank you so much...nailed it.
Hey Justin,
Could you re-do Little Wing by Jimi Hendrix?
Jürgen Kraise THIS WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!
I think he said somewhere that he plans to re-shoot all the potato looking videos at some point. There are a couple of Red Hot Chili Peppers tunes as well like Can't Stop and Under the Bridge.
surprised this one took so long...
good stuff as always justin..
thankful to you always
Even better the second time, thanks. Your singing is a bit up & down, I love it.

Justin super muzikant 1.
Nice Tele Justin.
Awesome riff 😀
Awesome I'm a Big fan rock on
Thanks. Well explained.
Man! I need to try to wipe the slate clean, and learn times, rhythm, strumming and using my ear from the start!
I never learned the solo from this song, you should do it :)
Thanks man!

Random compliment, but the ring on your middle finger looks super cool. Can I ask where you got it?
Amazing song and riff :)
Hey whats up, been waiting for this
Been up for years but audio was pulled!
Today's session programm is sorted. One of my favourites of all times. Thanks, Justin!

Any chance you could look at Mark Lanegan’s Bubblgum album. Some great guitar work on there...
Tight
Can you please do a lesson on dirty deeds done dirt cheap by AC/DC
the old couch returns 👍
I wish - I miss that ol' thing. But Cath Kidson took it back. :( like she couldn't have just bought another! ;)
Is this an A chord or an A power-chord?
6:23 8:00 9:03
Hi Justin, thanks for your lesson, but I already know how to play Black Dog.
Oh yeah! \m/ HNY Juz!
Hey Justin, what type of strings does your guitar have?
NYXL's
Justin.. is there anything you CAN'T play!!!??
Cheers
John frusciante- Anne with solo, the will to death, or omission please, good sir.
Justin likes to bounce when he plays
Lesson is fine. As is Page. Who's the lady on the t shirt. He main question
it litteraly goes out of tempo , in the sick riff most explained here, its one on tempo, the second off, and then the 3d time its o 5/4 so it has one more note , for magically get back on main tempo..
idols of riffing it
Cool, love this Led Zep song....you'll have to give Since I've Been Loving You a whirl at some point. Just about the coolest (sexiest) intro ever.
First :p hi justin
Hi!
Can u do some Nepali songs
Si ré re# mi mi do la ré re# mi sol sol # la mi do la .
Forget the upstroke/downstroke - WHAT ARE THE NOTES?!?
Gibson is the truth!
I'll be god damned !
I didn't know Norm MacDonald knew how to play guitar lol
Ha, I was thinking the same thing!!
Hang on, he looks younger here....is this an old lesson reuploaded?
yep - for some reason the old one had the audio muted - so trying again :)
Planning to do the same for your lesson on Babe I'm Gonna Leave You? Went back to brush up a bit the other day and noticed it had been muted :/
