Recorded with a Rickenbacker 360, Fender Twin Reverb ’65 Reissue amp, and a Sennheiser e609 SilverDynamic Guitar Microphone.
Minor yet significant point: By unbarre-ing that A, it makes it an A add9 because you have that open B. Great tutorial/Peter Buck 101 class.
Finally, great tutorials of early REM. Thank you. Please keep them coming off Murmur, Reckoning, and Fables.

Thanks so much for the kind words Christian. I will definitely keep posting!
"Sitting Still" used to be my warm-up song whenever I picked up the guitar. Was always the first thing I'd play. Should start doing it again.
yes, do it
You make an excellent teacher.
Where’s this channel been hiding ? Super glad I found it. Thanks for making it 🙏
Beauty in simplicity. So Peter Buck. Song about a hearing person connecting with a deaf person. Lovely
Agreed
Hey thanks I was just wondering what this song was about, so glad I found your comment!!

You're also missing the 2nd Katie barre chord. :p 7999 or 79x9, depending on whichever you feel is appropriate. Just hit it 2 or 3 times, then back to the first chord before going down. Also, I don't think you said "jangley" often enough. ;) You can see my full tab here (I did the bass part too): www.songsterr.com/a/wsa/r-e-m-sitting-still-tab-s408767t0
Greetings from Wurtland, Kentucky. Did i ask you to do a Cover for Drive? I Think so. Anyways please let me know when you are ready to do that cover and getting back on acoustic.
Hi Christopher...i am minus an acoustic...need to eventually get one but not in the near future. I may see how it goes on the electric.
Fast Ocular Can you please try to do Drive on Electric?
Had to unlearn bar chords for this!
ha
How about an acoustic radio song and sweetness follows lesson? Love your site we want more lessons.
Hello +jpercel1. Just did a cover & lesson Radio Song...not acoustic as I do not have one but it still may be worth checking out :-)

lesson: ua-cam.com/video/pWWMxFfIU2E/v-deo.html
Hey great thanks!!
In the verses he's just playing the low E note, palm muted, which you can see clearly here, as none of his left hand fingers are even touching the strings: ua-cam.com/video/kRTH8eqZbPM/v-deo.html
You can hear it on the record as well, as it makes that distinctive "flub flub" sound that only a single string makes. I didn't want to believe it, but the more I listened, the more I heard it that way, so I decided to scour all the old videos for proof, and hit gold. LOL
I suggest playing the part(s) through once first before beginning the lesson??
Thanks for the suggestion. I actually made a separate video as a cover of the song. In later videos I did combine the cover and video into one video :)
Thanks for checking these out!!!
@@r.e.m.guitarlessonscovers9654 Thanks for the reply; don’t mean to nitpick... ; )
No worries at all...all good!! Just happy you're interested and checking them out :)
@@r.e.m.guitarlessonscovers9654 You are the man for doing this; a great service to fans of this incredible music
LOL the lesson hasn't even started yet and I'm already wondering how you're going to do the palm mutes with the silly bridge cover on. I actually do know how to play it already, but it's fun to see what other folks are doing.
In the Part of B chord - A chord, i always listen in the record song a little progression like some kind of 7th or 9th chord type of variation or maybe its just me and my fucked ears. Great channel man!. kudos for you! Do wolves, lower
+Ayaxsoul 64 Hi there...I think in the intro chord progression PB may not go down to a B chord. I just did a cover and lesson for Wolves, Lower...check it out here:
ua-cam.com/video/_h8U2pFn33I/v-deo.html
There most definitely is, during the B chord Peter moves his pinky onto the 9th fret of the G string and moves it right back before moving to the A. It's a familiar move he does in other songs like Can't Get There From Here and Finest Worksong. There is also a third chord he forgot to mention during this phrase, as the phrase ends with the open F#.
Also the B in the intro happens once more during the final verse of the song.
