Man, you have been my near exclusive teacher for years now.. All I ever wanted was to be able to play some cool Who/Pete tunes, and you have really opened the door for me. Endless learning of scales, chords, tabs, notes, etc. etc. for years and years yielded me almost nothing until I found you. I am just truly life-grateful brother. What an amazing talent you have for the 'correct' sounds imo. My playing has improved exponentially these last few years. f i n a l l y Wish I could get the 'tremolo' picking more consistent... been working on that for centuries too.. maybe one day Rock on brother - I hope the good karma returns to you 1000-fold
So cool! Played this one in my high school band in the late sixties. Faked all the nuances that James has brought to life. LOL Played a Hagstrom solid body through a Traynor quad 6L6 amp.
Of course. Yes I was joking. I'm a pianist and music teacher and your videos are fantastic. They have helped me and so many of my students who also play guitar we are very grateful. Particularly during this season that now believes the spirit of Hanukah and Christmas are found in a shopping mall. Please keep the videos coming and don't change a thing - they're, well they're- perfect. Merry Christmas P
Another great tune I've been playing just a piece of for ever it seems. Thanks for the lesson. Starting to sound like a whole song for me now. I wish I could figure this stuff out for myself, but thank goodness we've got you man.
Excellent job there JJ. Thanks for that. Now you've made me divert my attention away from what I should be doing, and go and practice on this! One of my favourites from the 60's, but it always eluded my attempts to work it out with any real success. I only wish I could play drums too, this being one of Keith's most insane efforts on the skins. The lawns can wait!
That was awesome PT/JJ. My all-time favorite Who song! I know how much you like Pete. Could you please cover his acoustic version of Bargain? Thanks for all you do to help us less gifted guitar players!
Hey James James, just saw your last "Privettricker" video (yeah, I'm a little behind on my subs, LOL). I'd like to thank you for all the help and pointers you've given me. I too, primarily learn songs by ear, but I've used videos of the original musicians playing their songs and others' (like yourself) interpretation of how to play these songs to fill in the gaps in my knowledge. All the best, Will.
What amazes me about yourself is how you can play so much. When people talk about the greatest guitar players like Hendrix, Van Halen etc., I often wonder if they could of played so much of other peoples music. In other words, maybe they were not that great. They did create such great music but what else can they play. Who, in your opinion was a great guitar player?
Can you perhaps try Lucille , I Got A Woman , Long Tall Sally , Memphis Tennessee, all by the Beatles, if you have the time and pleasure? Thanks, It'd be a great help.
James James I just saw the Who perform at American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX on 'The Who hits fifty' tour and let me tell you... that was one of the best concerts I've been to (and I've seen Clapton and Winwood perform together on their 2009 tour, Skynyrd, Doobie bros, Rick Derringer, Great White, Foreigner and more) still a damn good show. The Who are up in age but it has NOT affected their performance!
I've learned through watching your vids that The Who modulate to different keys in many of their songs. Do you know if the Rolling Stones did this in any of their songs?
Thanks for showing the chords for this one even though I picked it up on your old channel. Also I've figured out Keith's chuck berry licks on little queenie by ear, but I don't know the rhythm part, is there any way you could post a rhythm part on that song?
Hi james ! Very good cover, can you do the "goofy goober" rock by spongebob squarepants ? The original song name is "i wanna rock by twisted sister " thanks! !!
Hey man, I want to turn you on to some music I like, the artist is Ryan Bingham, the Song is called Southside of Heaven from the Album Mescalito. ryan bingham southside of heaven
one of my favorite Who tunes...I love all your Who covers!....

Hell yeah I'm seeing them tomorrow!

You are so damn good!! Thank you for sharing!
Pete was accused that he wrote a song about taking drugs, he replied no it’s just about a guy with fantastic eyesight.
Ty I like the tone and the reflection of your right hand
Thanks for the lesson and I'm loving the Oilers jersey. Keep up the fantastic work!
Thanks JJ I still go there all the time when I want to learn a new tune.have a good day.
That was awesome PT/JJ. My all-time favorite Who song! I know how much you like Pete. Could you please cover his acoustic version of Bargain? Thanks for all you do to help us less gifted guitar players!
Well done. Way better than any tab or video lesson available on line.
Perfect! Great lesson.. any chance you can do a lesson on Rough Boys in keeping with the PT theme? Thanks for the lessons
Awesome! Jimmy Jam Jam once again shows us how easy this shit is when you have his ear!
One of my fav guitars you own
Awesome lesson! Thank you!
(I see all these sweaters, but I have yet to see you put on the sweater of God's team of choice. The Toronto Maple Leafs!)

Thanks
Great Pic! I wondered what your true identity was!
Awesome!
so cool

Go! Leafs Go !
wow, impressive, thanks! I think I'll be able to manage that thanks to your explanation
great. nobody else does it correctly on youtube.
Hay,JJ that was a good & quick lesson ) thanks, how about another?the real me? Thank you for sharing all of this knowledge you have,your the man!!!
james gomez Check the privettricker channel for plenty of other Who songs. There's a complete lesson for The Real Me.
James James I just saw the Who perform at American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX on 'The Who hits fifty' tour and let me tell you... that was one of the best concerts I've been to (and I've seen Clapton and Winwood perform together on their 2009 tour, Skynyrd, Doobie bros, Rick Derringer, Great White, Foreigner and more) still a damn good show.

Never seen a chord say 'F you' that clearly before.
nice vid,in im uk tried to get a schecter pt but a lefty three months wait and had to pay in full without playing it
Nice tutorial. alot of open sliding power chords. Thanks for the lesson.
Thanks for showing the chords for this one even though I picked it up on your old channel. Also I've figured out Keith's chuck berry licks on little queenie by ear, but I don't know the rhythm part, is there any way you could post a rhythm part on that song?
James James what happened to your tutorial on Coldplay's Sparks. Can you re-post it? It was super helpful and beautiful.
+MegaPianoPaul I assume that's a joke.
+James James so brutal james hahaha too funny, you would make a great rockstar, especially when it came to interviews
Are you sure it's in Em? I have the original sheet music & that shows it to be in E.
Could you do a cover of think about it by the yardbirds I really need a good version to watch the solo is so hard to figure out
That Jers better have McDavid on the back... haha
Hi james ! Very good cover, can you do the "goofy goober" rock by spongebob squarepants ? The original song name is "i wanna rock by twisted sister " thanks! !!
Awesome oilers jersey can you do free ride by Edgar winter group
King Llama Check the privettricker channel.
+ James James thank you and I'll be honest I loved your videos so much so I'd play them for school and I wanna thank you (:
I can see 5 miles.
And are you in a band?
I've got a Flames sweater with your name on it...
Funny how The Who used the American term "miles" instead of the English metric "kilometers". Rolls off the tongue better, I guess.
The UK has always used miles.
what amp and settings
It's a Peavey Vypyr 100.

Terrible jersey but another great lesson! Go Wings!
