There’s no right or wrong way to play it considering he only really played it in the studio while winging it. He said he even forgot it years later
Does Dogstar cover it? So cool to see you here!
Prince was known for doing everything in one take, no just because he was that good, but because he wanted the raw feeling in his music to shine through.
I just saw a video that some producer was saying Prince would make things purposely hard to cover lol I wouldn't be surprised if that was why he gave that answer too
That groaning noise isn't a synth. It's Prince's voice doing some improvised sounds. Great tutorial! Thanks!
:)
oxy 75 are you seriously that insecure that you trash talk someone who dedicated their time to help others? Couldn’t even post your inane, poorly spelled comments to the correct person. Smh
There is both, Prince groaning and the Synth/guitar.
OK my opinion is prince is singing/groaning through a vocoder synth
It's Prince saying "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah"
Very timely lesson my friend. Thank you. RIP Prince. We will miss you. Peace!
+Sloppy jones Thank you. So sad right now :(
Thank you......I love how quickly you go thru with a close up of the guitar!!!
I can always rewind if I need to but getting right to the point of the lesson is priceless!!!!
dude you are too good! please please do a tutorial on purple rain solo and little red corvette solo too! you are the only one on youtube who does proper price guitar lessons!
+Ozair Rafique Hi Oziar. I wasn't going to do Purple Rain as there seems to be lots of other versions online so I thought I would do songs that don't have tutorials. We did it in the band a few years ago ua-cam.com/video/kUNtpT3kLuA/v-deo.html - great song. When I get a free day I'll do Purple Rain and definitely Little Red Corvette as I don't think anyone else has done this. Next one I'm gonna do is Let's Go Crazy :)
thank you so much for the reply :)
i am looking forward for more of your lessons!
That intro can not be replicated the more I see people do tutorials. It’s not like it’s particularly hard but it’s such a independent creation & uniquely played by Prince that’s its impossible to replicate exactly like him. This was still amazing tho
Sir, you have no idea how awesome this is! Ever since I heard this song, I always wondered how Prince played the intro (attempting to play it wasn't even considerable until now!).
As shocking as his sudden death is, it's heartening to see a lot of guitar lessons on Prince's stuff, so that amateurs like myself could comprehend his wizardry. Hope his copyright police won't revert back to being strict and take all these down.
I think tutorials are safe from the copyright police as I'm not playing any actual recordings in the video.
I made this just a few days before his tragic death. As a result I've been getting so many requests for other Prince songs. I'm trying to do as many as I can to honour such a fine musician.
+Jason Read But sir, I've been scrounging UA-cam for about 6 months in vain. Then I heard that Prince's people, like Bob Dylan's, are very vigilant on UA-cam and that they take down even tutorials. Even his official videos and live performances weren't available here. I guess they've relaxed it a bit now and the floodgates are open.
Thanks for the lessons again sir! I hope you find some solace by making these lessons.
Try listening to, The Time's 777-9311song, and hear the drums. I heard Prince did those, and everyone says it's sick.
Thank You, Well played!! Keep it up!!! Dont stop!, all of his work need a moment and lesson. EPIC! R.I.P Artist, Poet, Genius
+Brad Lewis Thanks :)
Never appreciated his guitar skills until I got older.
thank you for your latest Prince tutorials , I've been playing guitar for about five years and a huge Prince fan grew up listening to him since I was a little boy. finally I have some songs I can play on the guitar. this is been very lacking on UA-cam so thank you for filling the void
+Derek Jennings Thank you. Glad to be of service :)
Guitar is about playing things on your own way. That sounds close enough and good enough to get away with. Anyone would recognize it if you played it just like that.
Because it is so soon there tends to be hyperbole on the talent of an artist. I was wondering though, because of his ability to play 27 instruments, are the accolades and the praise of Prince's ability on guitar, etc. as people are saying? Some are saying his musicianship is extremely rare and once in a generation if not lifetime. Do you agree?
He had a unique gift and was a phenomenal guitar player.
Why thumbs down ??????
Effort greatfully received
because people are freaking idiots they found everything down but have no way of showing you the correct way to do it themselves
As they say 'haters gonna hate' :)
Cheers mate! I play lefty upside down and this did the trick! Still trying to nail it but this really helped!
You're so lucky to know how to play like Prince 💜
So close on that first lick, man. Nice job. 👍
+markmatteo Thanks! I could never get it quite perfect. Only Prince could do that and he was a genius. This is my best attempt. R.I.P Prince - a legend.
+Jason Read I just posted it bro. It's quite a bitch a took me forever to find it. He was a master!!!
Wes, that was amazing!
God bless you for doing these tutorials. We Prince fans and guitar enthusiasts really appreciate it. If you are able, could you do a Joy In Repetition and Dreamer tutorial? May Prince RIP.
+renardoj Thanks. I'll add them to my ever growing list! :)
yes! thanks for this! also yes, "dreamer" was one of his greatest guitar songs! would be great to get your breakdown on that! I'm sure "Bambi" was requested!
Slow down
I'm a fan of Joan as well ha ha great rythm guitarist
Great vids! Yes-along with the strange vocal sound at the beginning,Prince also gives us a dove cooing impersonation at about the 4:40 mark of the song under the "hoo-waoo-waoo ooo-waa" harmony part. Also, a kiss smack sound over the long keyboard solo near the end which I never noticed until recently.
I know which bit you mean as I've been working on the solo recently :)
What a coincidence-I recorded a vid of myself doing the solo last week(which I might-or not) upload. I found this video of yours by checking to see if anyone had done it already. As a huge Prince fan,Im glad you've done great vids of his songs,particularly his lesser known ones(crazy you,so blue etc)
Thanks. I guess because I had made this video before he sadly died that's the reason I started getting so many requests for Prince songs, which because I'm such a huge fan I've been trying to honour.
Love your PRINCE Tutorials Dude! Thanks:) Keep them coming!!
Thanks Rodney! More to come over the weekend!
You teach so well. Thank you!!!
Ur amazing brothera!!!! I only watch your videos...cuz you explain so well. I learn it so quick.
Thanks :)
You should make a videos and put it together. Your mind is lethal....n genius. Thanks for blessing UA-cam with your style
You're welcome :)
Sounds like an Octave pedal kind of effect on the opening riff 👍
Thx so much, can't wait to riff it up!
+Paul Hamrick You're welcome.
What about when the drums kick in and he is hitting those chords before the first piano ?
Prince never got his well deserved props for his guitar work!!! WhT the he'll were they thinking??!!
I prefer memorizing this from a practical view. I really doubt that a lot of these great players go for playing the exact note, the exact same way every time. It's more about being in the moment and capturing a gut feeling on tape. That's what gives some players soul as opposed to just being able to play 75 notes per second in a perfect scale.
Great job 💜
Thank you :)
excellent lesson mate.
This is great thanks for sharing. If possible can you do a other video showing what your other hand is doing I'm a beginner and a lot of this stuff is still confusing to do with out being able to see what u doing with the other hand
I think I need to do a general video on right hand picking technique. That will help.
+Jason Read That would help
great as always thx!
Obrigado Jason
Great video. Would love a Part 2 covering the solo!
+Alex Gibbons I'm going to do some more Prince solos this weekend when I have some free time :) It's definitely on the list.
+Jason Read Looking forward to it mate. On this particular song his vocal ad-libs mask a lot of the solo, it's not high enough in the mix for me. Subscribed in the meantime.
Great tone
I'm sure you do your a fab player I've subscribed so I will be soaking up some quality stuff muchas gracias!
Hi,
Great tutorial. Can you tell me what effect pedals you are using to get that "When Doves Cry" sound?...Thanks
Prince!!!
🇬🇧 or 🇦🇺 people rock! 🤘🏾 Thank’s bro!
Love your videos.. Thank you!!
Jason I met Prince once back in 1998 on his new power soul tour, then I met him again in 2004 I met him through my cousin risa. she lives in Minnesota. I met Michael Jackson to.
That's brilliant!
What effects do u use on this song
how u make guitar sound like that through amp? treble/gain/bass/middle levels? my amp is basic
Hey can you do a tutorial on Prince eye hate u
what type of effects do you have for this sound? octaver?
nice thank you for sharing!!!!
Wow, great stuff!
Cheers :)
Excellent lesson, bud. North Westerner? Bolton? Blackburn? Burnley?
Ro Chambeaux Morecambe:)
It's not a blues scale as you stated but a basic E minor scale since the blues scale adds a Bb tritone, which is not part of that run. Also, played slower with less frantic wiggling vibrato would make for a better tutorial after the initial performance.
Can you do a lesson for the Bass line on the studio recording?
Done. Here it is...
@@thejaseguitar Is it in H?
Oh well , in every bunch of roses you'll always get a prick ;/ X thanks again Mr !
Haha. my pleasure :)
The groaning noise is vocal, actually playing kinda muted harmonic on the 7th fret
Better intro technique than it was played on the Purple Rain tour!
Helps if you have an octave fuzz pedal.
That’s something I’d love to own.
@@thejaseguitar there's decent sounding ones at budget prices.
Are you going to teach the outro?
great lesson
+guitar bang ........... I rarely give comments about tutorials. But, I think this tutorial was well done on every level. His voice was well mic'd. The close up was well done. He didn't rush it and explained it. The guitar didn't sound too loud. A++
+ExclusiveLM Many thank :)
great tutorial dude.. how did you achieve that tone??
+Ashirvad Lima Thanks! Think I was playing through a Supa Tonebender Fuzz.
thanks for this.
+Rocco Galata You're welcome.
That first lick is an octave down. I am certain that Prince played all the solos, and back in the day probably with a mxr Blue Box, but Boss likes to say all his pedals were Boss. Maybe.
I think the first lick is played in that position but with an octave pedal. :)
Hi Jason can you break down the lead to this song? Thanks in advance if you can:0
Hi Rodney. It's on my solos to do list :)
Thank dude have a great day:)
Thank you very much!
I went from starting with a smashing pumpkins as my first song then to pink floyd and in 2 months this.
thank you sir,,,for yr sharing, God blesses on you
+John Michael You're welcome :)
That “keyboard noise “ isn’t a synth, it’s Prince going “yeah e yeah e yeah e yeahhhh....” LoL
Great video though it will get me close enough ! Thanks
Please do a video on speed picking
what tone and gear are you using ??
It's and Ibanez guitar (early 1990s) and a Line 6 Amplifi amp :)
Thanks can we get alot more tutorials on him? And thanks for doing a song other than purple rain idk why everyone acts like that's the only song he played guitar on. Maybe controversy and little red corvette and when you were mine? I could never take the place of your man. So many guitar song. Raspberry beret
+TracksByDesz Yes, there's more to come - understandably I've been getting so many requests.
+TracksByDesz ua-cam.com/video/ajc0X5a6qMk/v-deo.html When You Were Mine
+Jason Read awesome man THANKS!!!!! Wow
TracksByDesz I've done Little Red Corvette too, and when I have a bit more time I'll do a separate video for the solo :)
awesome!!! thanks can't wait for the solo! and these songs are so much more simple than i thought. and you really know your fret broard sweet! thanks for all of these Jason.
Great lesson.. thanks always thought it was more complicated.. will take a while to get up to speed but I will keep at it.. RIP 0(+>
Thanks :)
Boom nice one pal xx
+Sam Mitchell Thank you :)

Thank you for taking the time to post this... but a word of advice... Stop whipping your hand off the neck immediately after playing the last note. It’s a bad habit for a teacher. And slow down. People are looking for notes and hand placement, and you speed through a passage then throw your hand out of frame every time.
This was one of my early videos when I thought only a few of my friends watched them. Hopefully I’ve improved a bit since then.
@@thejaseguitar I know it takes a lot to film, edit and put up videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, tips and tricks. ;-)
Awesome. You only left out about 8 notes. And my search goes on for someone that can play it correctly.
I think I'll just stick with ccr thanks
Those chords for the main verses are wrong. Its Am G Am / Am G Em - F - G - Am Youre completely missing the walkup and there's no D.
I think you missed a couple of small notes for the introduction
Dont mean to be 👿 or anthying and obviously you can play but that vibrato you got is what Steve Vai refers to as the frightened mosquitoe... Slow it down I know its hard... Been there. Try to replicate Zakk Wylde or watch Joe Satch hes got good lessons on vibrato. Btw Thanks for the lesson.
eh up Jay,,U R a star man ,where ya from ?
Morecambe :)
so fucking hard getting the first lick
need a Octavisor or it doesn't sound right
Didn't sound right to me
it is a bit to fast the explanation, you can do it like that... hahahahaha, i don t!!
the "noise "emulate the doves cry....
+Rocco Galata Yes! :)
This is great. I'd love if you'd listen to my tribute video to Prince and let me know what you think! Hope you enjoy.thank you!
didn't help, sorry, try to go a bit slower and do a bit at a time rather than rushing, some people can't keep up. For people who could keep up with it, congrats, but for me, it wasn't the best. Jason, you can play guitar well but your teaching needs a bit of work. i'm not saying i could do any better but, as you actually do full tutorials and everything, i think it would help get more people watching. However, this is just my opinion, i hope you take this comment under consideration and i realize you probably won't read this as the video is over 2 years old now, but if you do please don't ignore it. You can do anything you want but, like I said, this is just my opinion. Bye
I have to admit how frustrating this video is. 5 and a half minutes later, you get to the actual song.
Love the enthusiasm, but read your comments....much too fast. Can you do it slower, please?? Thanks John
You going wayyyy too fast lmaooo no way anyones gonna learn shit like this
. The manic last part is all SPASTIC strumming, sure you might have some o the key notes worked out, but where is the SPASTIC strumming???? BZZZZZZ.
please slow down
lay off the caffeine, man. it's gonna be alright.
Too fast I thought it was a lesson not a concert lol
Bud you are going way to fast
dude im pretty sure he dont use that much vibrato
TheBlackCrown30 !! This guy has some great lessons but regardless of the tempo of the song he has ONE vibrato speed and its a "nervous" vibrato and way too fast most of the time. He also has a terrible habit of sliding his hand up the neck after every single lick he shows. It gets really annoying.
He’s going way to fast
