      Hey Marty, Couldn't help but notice from your Live Stream that you are in San Diego. Do you teach privately in the area? If so I would be interested.
      Thank you,

    Marty! You're the best, man. I got my first guitar for Christmas when I was 11. I was horrible. Didn't even know the basic chords. Took lessons but no teacher was teaching me what I wanted to learn. I never got better and I lost interest and stopped playing. Years went by, UA-cam became a thing, I decided to give it another shot, and found your videos. I've been watching your videos for years now, and I've gotten better than I ever thought I would. I play every day and I love it. Now I look forward to learning new songs every week with your videos. You've been a massive help for me, and for thousands of others I'm sure. Thank you

    This is one of my all time favorite songs. That G/Dm/F/G break after the first chorus... I crank the hell out of that, always have. Death of a Marshall? I'm surprised how many chords are in this thing. Yeah those Keith Richards Brown Sugar SUS chords. I am a long way from playing this on guitar. I've played some of these licks on my Roland keyboard... or on my Hammond with the tube overdrive. Radio station here back a few years used to play this song on Saturday night about 7 o'clock but not anymore. Elton has done many fantastic songs but this one is his all time burner. There is only one guitar lick I crank louder - not a hit song. Opening power chords to ZZTop's Backdoor Medley / Backdoor Love Affair on Fandango. Such simple power chords but amped off the charts. #1 cranker, been doing it for almost 50 years!

    Marty, it’s Elton’s longtime guitarist Davey Johnstone whose I think the only member of the band Elton hasn’t replaced. Good job 👏 so although I needed the chords I have to go and see what key would lead be in. I’m thinking C minor. I am tuned down to make things more difficult for my brain but better for bends.

    • @wilfredreedman5683
      @wilfredreedman5683 2 роки тому +2

      I know I’m way too late, but the verse of the song is in G mixolydian (same notes as C major) and the chorus changes key to C mixolydian(same notes as F major)
