- Here's the next episode of Chordplay with The Chords Of Heart. Heart formed in Seattle, Washington in 1967 and was cofounded by guitarist Roger Fisher, and while his name may not ring a bell with most guitarists these days, his riffs, licks, and solos certainly will, as he's the player heard on countless 1970s hits from this iconic classic rock group fronted by the Wilson sisters - Ann and Nancy.
This lesson explores some lesser-known chord-based moments from this legendary group, and while you may not know some of the songs we're hitting in this lesson, the chords, progressions, and interesting ideas on display will surely inspire you to not only snag a number of new chord moves for yourself but to also dive a little deeper into Heart's music and the countless great rock guitar moments found on their albums.
Some of the songs featured in this lesson include sections from 'Bebe Le Strange,' 'Heartless,' 'Sing Child,' 'Little Queen,' 'Soul Of The Sea,' and more! So if you're already a Heart fan - get ready, but if you're new to the group or not familiar with some of their obscure '70s material, then grab your guitar and great ready to rock because this lesson is for you!

Way to knock it out of the park right out of the gate. HEARTLESS!!!!
Great song and chord choices throughout, killer video. Fantastic choice at the end of the video as well. Soul of the Sea!
thanks for doing the deep dive on these classic rock bands ! we luv your content ! ☮️
So cool mentioned Heart a few episode ago and here it is thanks Dave
I use play in a Heart Trib band for awhile. So we played mostly early stuff and there Biggest hits! I always had special place for playing Heart! Brings back good memories !Thanks David
Nice. Great band. Cool lesson as usual. Thanks Mr.Brewster
Please do a 'part two' and cover Mistral Wind, I'd enjoy your take on that song. Another good lesson, Dave. Thanks.
Dude .. thanks for giving Roger and Nancy’s string work some love
The chemistry between them during those years created so much great guitar work …yet for the most part been overlooked/under appreciated by the rock industry thru the years
Nancy’s acoustic work on those albums was very inspirational to me as a guitarist
Thanks for all the awesome vids Brewster!!
rock on …
Great video. So glad you did Sing Child. It's my favorite Heart song.
Alex Lifeson is another one who pulls out those dreamy open voicing especially going into or out of a solo. Gives a song more depth... beginning, middle, end, feels like you've gone on a little road trip. @latenightlessons, your next series could be called road trip. Highlight songs that have well established movements that draw the listener in with insight about what's happening with opinion about why we love it so.
Great lesson Dave. I dig Heart!
Only just come across your channel man, but god, easily some of the best lessons on UA-cam as well as the history to, I just love hearing everything about the bands and stuff as well. ❤️ Learning a lot from you man, thank you for putting all your time into these for us to enjoy and learn us what you know. Your a fantastic guitar player and your tone is always so lovely as well! ✌️ Thank you bud!
great lesson as always Dave. thanks brother
Awesome lesson man!! All your stuff is ruling!!
Thanks for doing these tunes!
Longtime Heart fan. Saw them in 1979 with Blackfoot and Santana at an outdoor concert, then again in the 80s. Such memorable music that stands the test of time.
I believe the 1st chord from Heartless is the same one Holdsworth used for his bridge in Fred - cool lesson!
Great guitar/history lesson. Love that strat. Keep up the great lessons.
Another great lesson. You ROCK!!!
Brewster...awesome job...love alive sounded incredible !!!!
Great Lesson!!
Love your stuff man! Please keep em comin.
Third! Ha. Awesome lesson. Heart has some great chord progressions. Took me forever and ever to figure out Magic Man was tuned different than standard
Great lesson Dave!
Thank you!!
70s Heart was the best.
The band were massive Led Zep fans and those early albums with the combination of folky acoustic and hard rocking numbers are the best for me.
Awesome guitar parts, Bebe la strange is just a great riff and rhythm part
Hi. Great video and thanks for making it. Love your words about bands in the last few minutes, in particular about Heart. Wild Child or There's The Girl or Kick it Out (quite a few other too) are other examples, not played so much on radio but have some mesmerising guitar parts - and awesome vocals. Regards.
For me Dreamboat Annie was the record so much dreamy magical sounds had a 8 track tape and wore it out playing that stuff good times in high school great blend of guitars both acoustic and electric 👌👍
Very tasty as ALWAYS!
Brewster. I can't help but think of fright nite when I say your name.
Not that well known here in the UK (well, not by me) but thanks to another of your great videos I shall check them out, thanks David!
Heartless is my favorite Heart tune.
Love that strat man
wiked !!!!!!!!! good sound bud !!!!!
I hope Roger is still getting royalties to this day
How about doing a Budgie chordplay? They had some amazing classic rock riffs.
2nd this
Me too! Budgie were epic
Brewster...back in the day, I got a gig for the summer playing in a cheesy band with a girl singer...I had to learn Til Tuesday, Pat Benatar and tons of Heart songs... I’m sure I played half the stuff wrong, but it was a whole lotta fun...Roger Fisher is a beast...remember “city’s burning”??
City’s Burning!! I think Rog was gone by then tho pretty sure that’s all Nancy
Thank you
I was just thinking about making a chordplay on Heart a couple days ago.
Thanks B🐓!
And Lita Ford too. (Hint)
Hmmmm the open ended chords, perhaps an inspiration for Jerry Cantrell when writing Rooster..? He is a big fan of Heart and friends with them, used their old studio Bad Animals to record in
It's Nancy who plays the "main" guitar parts on Heartless. Also some cool chords on Nada One.
Awesome as always! One thing I'd offer is that in the upper part of Love Alive (starting at 15:13), I'm pretty certain it's played using arpeggiated harmonics for the 1st G chord (5th fret harmonics) and the D chord (7th fret harmonics) -- check out the album.
Nice Job....
Surprised you didn’t include Mistral Wind from Dog and Butterfly
The second riff reminds me of the chorus to "Mean Street."
Nancy Wilson is a sadly, underrated guitarist. I think a lot of people overlook her, because Heart had both Roger and Howard and there being some stupid idea about RnR being strictly a male thing.
No doubt, the 70's Fisher era was the best all around. Too bad they can't suck it up and re-unite that era of the band : (
Met him & he's a cool guy
Cool lesson
I’d love to see a lesson on some Aussie bands like
Radio Birdman
Screaming Tribesmen
Hoodoo Gurus
The Hitmen
Vs Spy Vs Spy
The Angels
Baby Animals
Screaming Jets
Skyhooks
Midnight Oil
INXS
Hunters & Collectors
Yeah!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
We all want king’s x part 2 please!
Another band, More modern perhaps, That loved using altered or suspended chords and progressions were Sponge. Would be cool to see a Chordplay or lesson on their Rotting Pinata/Wax Ecstatic era 🤔🤔🤔
Please part two
Great episode Dave! I can’t help but think Nancy Wilson’s use of harmonics had some influence on Eddie Van Halen. I read where she said she gifted EVH his first acoustic!
i believe the drama was Nancy and Roger had a falling out with the relationship and then Nancy started dating the Drummer Mr. Derozier causing a lot of drama and that just basically where it went south and he was fired but man i can see how he must have felt because man Nancy is a goddess right? but yeah very fleetwood Mac-ish scenario.
on a side not Roger and Mike are friends now and do appearances sometimes well not too recent but you get it.
Bill Steer... please do one on him
I feel they lost alot of their musical mojo when they fired Roger
Open B and E strings…the Alex Lifeson recipe for taking up musical space.
👍
Oh yeah...
Alex lifeson was the first person I noticed doing those open ended chords, I want to say Xanadu
80s "Corporate" Heart > 70s "classic rock" Heart, any day
❤ no pun intended ❤ OK maybe there was some intention there...
Why would anyone cheat on Nancy Wilson? 🤦🏻
Rodger was the man 👍
Heart was Roger Fisher. Leese was part of Mushroom Studios and him and Roger made a great connection with each other while recording Dreamboat Annie. Yes, Roger cheated on Nancy and then she ran to Micheal. Haven’t been able to find it for a long time but there’s video of a Heart concert when Roger gets so angry with Nancy and Micheal that at the end of the one tune he takes off his guitar and throws it to the ground and walks off stage. It was said that was his last show. As far as whether he was really fired or he quit is really up in the air as I’ve seen and heard different remarks made by the Wilson sisters over the years and seems the older they get the more cynical and bashing they get, they’ve even claimed it was their band back in the 70’s. Even Nancy admitted she was a better player in the 70’s but that’s because she had Roger writing and teaching her everything and that proof is in the material. The first 4 albums were and always will be the best for Heart. Oh, and as for Alias, that was the remaining members of the 70’s Heart.
Who the hell cheats on Nancy Wilson ?
Roger Fisher leaving Heart is like Lindsey Buckingham leaving’Mac. Took a downturn. A different band not popular. The emotional tensions, love triangles, both good and bad were essential to chemistry that ‘made’ the magic of their times. Nancy was had the wondering eye. Had an affair with the drummer. Just like Stevie. I don’t need to echo though you instruction and insight in rock guitar….awesome. If you were around 49 years ago I probably would have failed out of premed and started the high school band circuit.
First 😉😉
Roger Fisher WAS the Heart sound from the 70s. Don't really care for the stuff after he left.
Neither sister, reads music, or knows what those special chords are... they just, found them.
Lol how do you know?
@@curragh4635 Lol, seriously? Okay, you asked to look stupid, trying to make someone else look stupid - I know, because... things called "interviews", and "videos where Nancy tells us this right to the camera, that she has no idea what she's playing" - oooooh, yes, it's magic, man.
Most especially, she said this, about songs like, Mistral Wind...along with others she mentions by name.
OBVIOUSLY, she doesn't mean regular chords we all know the names of - even so though, neither are writing with music theory in mind... any more than the any of the Beatles knew what they were doing, technically.
Feel better now, Doofus? Do the world a favor, don't have kids.
@@FRACTUREDVISIONmusic hey guy they deleted 2 of my comments where i basically tore you apart. but anytime you want to call me a doofus to my face im in new york , anywhere you want to meet. i asked how do you know and that was your response. go play in traffic
@@curragh4635 Well, aren't you a dinosaur for sore eyes, lol. Nice you know you wasted so much time and energy, just for lil' ol' me.
Bless your little heart - look that up, it's a southern thang.
You were being a jerk, and you got called out on it. Grow up, testoster-drone Popeye. Goodbyeee!
@@FRACTUREDVISIONmusic I like the fact that you were correct. It seems that you seen the same interviews that I did. However, I believe the guy was honestly and sincerely asking how you know. Unless his original comment as been edited he wasn't rude at all. You could've nourished his curiosity, instead you tore him down. You're not being very Southerly. You best hope your momma don't see what you said else she gonna wash your mouth out with soap.
