This Free Online Guitar Lesson is Crossroads by Cream with Eric Clapton.
I started dreaming of the guitar around then, and I didn't start playing till age 12. By the time I was 14 I was playing whatever version of crossroads I could muster.
Once again I have to thank Steve Maase for being probably the greatest guitar teacher in the world. We were and still are lucky to have Steve in Albuquerque New Mexico.

The greatest guitar solo of it's time, it had everything, even Hendrix was mesmerised by Cream. The interesting thing about this solo is if you learn to play it, it will teach you everything you can do on a guitar (apart from tapping and whammy bar techniques). It will teach you double stops, double bends, slides, hammer ons, pull offs, vibrato etc. I also believe this is the most complete solo Clapton ever performed, it's melodic, intense, fast, accurate, and had every single thing in it Clapton knew how to do at the time.Tim pays a nice homage to Clapton at the end of the solo, but Claptons end solo is incredible!
The weird thing is that Clapton didn’t like it. He said he screwed up the timing a couple of times. I agree with you though!
Actually Clapton was mesmerized by Jimi. Never the other way around. All pentatonic.ala 90% of Clapton.
@@jimkostan9932 Jimi was humble and respected his peers, you can find the interviews
@@jimkostan9932 Nonsense. Jimi spoke for himself.
I just think this gentleman is a very very great guitarist and seems to teach extremely well.Respect Sir.
That solo itself may have been one of the best I've seen. Thank you Tim.
Tim is the gold standard of guitar tutorials. Out of the gate, he draws you in with his seamless playing. Then he breaks it down, methodically, patiently; and with his infectious joy for playing.
Ah Men... 😎🤟
It is is humble in his genius that works my heart and soul. Natural musicians like Lord Pierce were ALWAYS my heroes- because despite my serious conservatory and university music lessons- natural musicians like Lord Pierce and the love in their ears and hearts trumped my academic music training… amen.
@@fullwaverecked ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dead on ! No way to say it better . Always soulful playing by Tim as shown by that broad deep smile when he cuts loose
Agreed!
I think of all of the guitar solos over the years this solo, more than any, is a "must learn exactly like the record". It's that iconic and beloved and I'm sure you've more than done your part In helping people do that..thanks Tim !
That's probably the best UA-cam teaching I've used. No bollocks... Straight to the point! Perfect.
Hi Tim I grew up with Clapton and have always been a big fan, but I have to say your solo was absolutely superb , and what I love is you can see by your face you are really enjoying yourself. You are truly a great player all the best to you from the UK!
I love the smile he gets on his face every time he plays an insane solo. He’s good and he knows it but he still seems like a nice guy.
I got a totally different impression. When he smiles it looks to me like he’s really enjoying playing,not like “I know I’m badass” type smile. Who knows but him I guess
7 years ago and this still one of the most badass lessons on UA-cam to this day.
Been playing guitar, (self taught) for 45+ yrs. Still enjoy playing. Always a Good day, or rather a Better day when I pick up something new that enhances my vocabulary. My vocabulary Most times is enhanced after watching one of Tim's UA-cam videos. Thanks a bunch Tim!
I never saw a guitarist more smiling when playing then Tim Pierce. Tim you are amazing ... thx for your lessons. Helped me a lot.
Tim, I've been listening to you for a couple months now and I have to say, I believe you are probably the best guitar player I've ever seen, Ever.. Bar none. Your knowledge of the guitar is phenomenal and when you play, you sound Awesome!! Everything is spot on, timing wise and you put everything in the right place... I repeat, You are the best I've ever seen. You Are Awesome!!!
I bow to the interpretive and technical chops of this Mr Tim Pierce and his ears.
This was the first song and solo I ever learned, and was back in 1986. The tablature arrived in a guitar player magazine and I just poured over it. I have forever been glad that I learned it, because everything else following wasn't too tough and paved the way for me to learn other player's guitar styles. After this song, I went deeply into Hendrix, Jeff Beck, and the three Kings.
Tim is just the best. So calm and mellow when explaining and giving alternatives on way making you believe in yourself that anything is possible. Having not played electric guitar for thirty years my plectrum skill has deserted me so I use right hand finger picking throughout. We do what we have to do!
One of the greatest guitar solos of all time! Played live! Amazing! Thanks Tim!
Great job Tim. I've been playing this song for 55 years, and love the approach you have given us.
absolutely amazing....I must have listened to this at least 100 times and I can't stop smiling afterward.
I've always looked for the nuances to this masterpiece of guitar and just found It. Being a life long hobbyists guitar player this is one I've strived to nail. Your lesson is the key for me. Much thanks!
Hey Tim,
I enjoy watching you play stuff. Your easy on the ears, you seem to have it all ... Good phrasing, and most of all a modest positive attitude that is admirable.
The whole idea , “ in time and in tempo “ . Make it your own then swing it around. The whole idea. The most prophetic words I have heard in a long time.
That was always one of my favorite Clapton songs. Truly, with so many to choose from it's hard to pick one.
Anyway, this guy nails it and I have a whole new appreciation for EC.
Good job 👍
This is really an incredible tutorial! I like that you go into every small detail of the song without repeating everything again and again. Thank you very much!
Is there a moment when you were learning guitar, that your teacher or someone pointed out something that you were doing wrong, like how you were holding your pick, etc..that changed everything? I watch these and of course say "wow" like 99.9% of everyone else, but watching you teach makes things not only attainable, but much less frustrating...live forever! eagerly awaiting any material from you! thanks millions! Rich...Detroit.
everything beautiful... the choice of the song, the sound, the guitar, the joy in your face playing... great inspiration 🍀🍀🍀
It is a gift to be able to play so well. It is a gift to be able to teach well. You are one of the few great players who also is a great teacher. Thanks for the lesson!
This is a great lesson in that it provides tons of jump off points for building your own solo. I find this lesson - and your lessons in general great for providing a foundation or reference point to fall back on when creating my own licks. If I can't master a certain lick, I work something else out using this as a sort of home base if you will. Just awesome - thanks for posting these lessons!
Fantastic musician,amazing feeling.Tim was born to play guitar,he knows how to make a guitar sound great.Phenomenal Artist !
You sir are a giant. Wow what a wake up call. Really enjoyed that lesson. I am a 70 year old retired muso still kicking and doing gigs . And living the dream. U take care please don’t stop, regards martin
Masterful lesson and teaching. I have ALWAYS loved the "3 phrase" D7 part of this rhythm and the "skip" feel - you articulated this very well.
Your sound, technique, personality all add up to an unrivalled exponent of rock and blues. Thx for sharing your secrets and talent.
Love just listening to you play Tim, the lessons are great and I love learning them but sometimes it's just so cool just watching you play, you look like you are have so much fun and you play so naturally, it's so great. Thanks for what you do for us all Tim! -buddy
Thanks Buddy! #crossroads
LOVE how you're always smiling in your videos Tim, can tell you love playing, and it makes the video a joy to watch and learn from! Don't stop :)
Jake Gill Thanks Jake! :) #crossroads
The best Example so far for me of this great song..I learned something here, I wished you lived next door Tim, I`d drop by everyday...Thanks so much for posting.
Love your style of playing and teaching! I get impatient (and confused) with every string, fret and finger numbers that some YT teachers recite for every darn note. Just watching you play, with the way you break it down, is perfect for me.
Thanks again.
Brilliant! !!!!!
we all know this , but Tim is one of the best , maybe the best in my opinion , Respect !!!!
Shane from England ....
Thanks Tim, this really helps in my study of Clapton's Cream era playing. It is very useful in grasping the combining of Major and Minor scales.. Your lessons are much appreciated. Clapton's playing during that time is an education in blues/rock guitar. Thought I would never grasp the Major/Minor thing, but the light is coming on for me thru lessons like this. Great teaching and playing, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
TIM, I have been watching all of your recent vids and always look forward to the latest post by you. But when I saw your Jimi vids and your ZZ vids and your Cream vids, I didn't think it could get any better. Yours are the most accurate and I appreciate that you share the knowledge. Thanks.
Makes me wish had learned this solo back when I was copping Clapton licks. I’ve got to get back into the learning groove. Tim, YOU’RE SO GOOD!
even though I have played this song for years I tend to do it my own way with a Clapton influence. figured I would pop on here to see what I could improve and you gave me several good ideas. thank you!
Tim, that is literally my dream man cave. You are living the dream Tim. Making a living by playing the guitar must be one of the best feelings ever. I would wake up everyday thinking yes! I have work today. Keep on rocking Tim, I really appreciate your videos.
You are easily one of the best players and teachers I've ever seen. Please upload more tutorials ASAP.
Ryan LaViolette More to come thanks! #crossroads
Thank you Tim for the patience, knowledge, insight and the gentle artistic approach you take with these great vids!
Tim, great lesson. These licks are so ingrained in our musical thought that it's easy to forget the chops needed to reproduce them.
I so much enjoy watching your videos. You play with such fluidity and joy that your music is outstanding. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Wow! What a GREAT player! This is my first exposure to one of your lessons. Your ability to break things down into understandable chunks is incredible! It would be easy to get completely LOST while trying to learn these licks, but you provide immediate clarity - and in such a concise manner. I'll be checking out more of your lessons soon. Thank you so much!
The guys in my band have asked to put this in the set, naturally the algorithm has brought my favourite session player up. I’ll never play it like Tim but this is certainly the best reference to learn from
I came to this video to learn that second part of the intro. But I keep coming back to hear you rip that solo. I love it. Seriuosly so good. Hypes me up to play my sunburst ES too!
Thanks for all the useful stuff you teach Tim!... Let me say I that I just can't get tired of hearing you play! Thanks for giving us music!
Miguel Mejia Thanks for subscribing! :) #crossroads
Tim..This blew my mind. .well done brother. .Thanks for showing us mortals how it's done
Fantastic solo, Tim! BTW, the backing track was/is amazing, as a bass player, I have always admired Jack Bruce’s powerful work on “Crossroads”, all over the fretboard and rock-solid tempo… whoever played the bass on your backup track absolutely nailed that!
Looking for a tutorial to learn to play Crossroads... see a Tim Pierce one (sweet)... click... then BAM! WOW!!!!! That solo. Haven't picked up the guitar yet, just keep listening to that intro over & over! Thank you for that stunning ear candy!
Tim, you play with such skill and pleasure it makes me feel the electric guitar is the best thing humankind has ever invented. (Well, in fact it is)
You rule!
Now I think I have to do some (a lot of) practice...
Gui Rangel Thanks for subscribing Gui! #crossroads
Practice and great spirit!
3 best: Surfboards, Guitars and guns.
Sounds great Tim! And it's also very cool to see how much fun you have while playing! Keep up and thanks for sharing.
This is amazing. It's one of those tracks I thought I couldn't play but after watching this I can't believe my progress. Thanks Tim
Great chops, simple to follow, and well explained... thank you Sir Tim!
This solo is Clapton greatest of all time..I saw David Hildago ,Los Lobos on New Years Eve at the Filmore West..do this note for note...a great time for all.Thanks for this post greatly appreciated.
I agree with Kraven, excellent as always. You seem to always have a great time playing and teaching.
Doug Collins Glad you like it thanks Doug! #crossroads
You are one hell of a great guitar player and teacher. More power to you. That part you said you used to play the ending riff, is exactly the way I do- until I saw what you showed patiently in this video. Thank you very much.
Tim has the best guitar face ever!!
It’s say ‘I rock but I’m still a gentleman’
Awesome!
Fantastic lesson Tim,so clearly explained with patience and modesty....a born teacher and brilliant teacher.
Gerry Mc Gill Thanks Gerry! :) #crossroads
The original is a classic, and for it's time, altering. You play it so smoothly when you do it homage. When you start to improvise you retain the phrasing cadence a just kill it with your improvisation. Thank you for sharing.
Hey Tim! I really enjoy your videos. Thank you! I am actually a drummer that's played for 30+ years and learning guitar and bass to eventually record my own stuff and I have learned so much from your tutorials. Thanks again. Cheers!
Tim, I like your teaching style - you get the info across effectively.
Wow, that solo literally melted my face.
Always love you lessons and the stuff you show us. Thank you Tim.
Great Tim, always a pleasure to hear and watch you play!
Martin Tallstrom Thanks Martin! #crossroads
I have tried and failed a few times with this song but with your breakdown and style of teaching you made it a LOT simpler for me.
Thanks!
Mike95DSM Great to hear thanks! :) #crossroads
Great lesson and you make them very easy to learn from, direct and to the point without a bunch of useless fluff!
I've been watchin' you solo more than 20 times the last days, it's really honey for my ears.. Will try to tab and learn it, I know what to do with my guitar for the next months :-) Thanks again !
Danny, email us at admin@timpierceguitar.com and we will try to help........Tim

Thanks for these Tim. I love your style. Very fluid and you teach it so well. I'm actually really inspired when you talk about the areas where you struggled. Makes me feel like there's hope for me. ha!
Tim as always your instructions are so clear and full of details. Thanks so much for sharing.
WOW!!! Amaaaaaaazing. Geeeez, Tim, it's like you're music's version of a carpenter. You NAIL it EVERY time. Unbelievable.
13thAMG Much appreciated thanks! :) #crossroads
Wow!!!! That’s drop the mic stuff right there! What a way to open a lesson up!
any true music lover would never hate this. awesome.
Nice to see someone play the thing they're going to teach first up. So many don't. Great playing and an excellent tutorial.
God bless you for doing this channel Tim. Love everything about it. Love your attention to detail and easy teaching style. Just great to watch you play.
Tony Lee Glenn Thanks Tony! :) #crossroads
U r really such a good teacher and player! Few are able to be both at the same time, but you are definitely one of the exceptions! I love all your session work! Thank you for being such an inspiration and motivation! Greetings from Singapore!
Joseph Chong Thanks for subscribing Joseph! :) #crossroads
Tim - you are an amazingly gifted player and teacher
You're guitar collection amazes me just as much as your awesome playing! Love these videos Tim!
you have a gift for clear, precise instruction; very nice and thanks
I would love to see you break down Clapton’s guitar introduction on Cream’s live “sitting on top of the world” and Jeff Beck’s solo in “rock my plimsoul.“ You are my favorite online instructor!
Really enjoyed the lesson Tim this one of my all time favorite tracks by Cream. You've broken it down it manageable chunks, thanks again great lesson cheers Gary
Thank you Tim. I do appreciate your generosity and expertise. I'm learning a lot from you.
every other teacher of this song plays it half assed and wrong , except you Tim. Awesome !
i have been playing this tune for years, different versions, my own versions and yours kicks ass. I play the rhythm the same but you walk through the scale like Eric himself showed you. Very nice, thanks
Even the pros study the hell out of the classics. Thank you Tim.
Thank you being clear and concise both in your style and your lesson!
Thanks for breaking Clapton's riff into simpler pieces, Tim! You make it seem so easy...an old hacker with 10 thumbs appreciates your infinite patience and technical insight.
So patient and detailed! Much appreciated. Thank you!!!
Had my best results playing the D7 arpeggio with hybrid picking... pick for the A and D, and middle finger for the F# on the high E string. Love your take on the 3 lead sections!!
You are one of my favorite guitarists Tim. Thanks for taking the time to do these!
Fantastic overview at the beginning; I love watching your face as you play. You were born to play guitar!
Dave Dycus Thanks Dave! #crossroads
Great instruction!! Watching this cover tells the whole story why you are so great, why people want you on their records!
Okay Tim, my guitar's in pieces having been thrown out the window, so what's next? I would run out of superlatives describing your demonstration of how to out Clapton the big 'E' but the greatest compliment I could give is how you really put yourself and joy into playing. There is a sublime love in there for what you do and that's what separates you from we lesser mortals who have enough problems simply getting the notes right never mind putting those subtle bends and beautiful, expressive tonality in with but a thought. The smile as you come down that blinding half blues, half country run before flying back up to the 12th fret is worth a thousand words. Thank you for being who you are. I have taken the liberty of looping your piece 4 times into a 6 minute track if that's okay although without the smile it isn't quite the same! Put that on a CD and I'd buy it like a shot. The sheer exuberance of your playing is a wonder to behold and an inspiration to so many. Thank you for being who you are.
That is one beautiful guitar !!!,,, Tim is simply awesome !!! 😍🎸👌🔥🔥🔥
beautiful playing with teaching,thanks
Tim, thanks for sharing your talent! I am learning so much from you. Just signed up for the extra licks, gonna work my way through them. Thanks again, you're an amazing teacher.
Tim, you're an incredible guitar player, and a gentleman as well. Thanks for all the help. I've picked up a lot from you.
Thank you so much! Lots of things clicked while I was watching your very clear lesson. Great!
