Atlanta musician here. I’ve played with Jimmy several times, and you really can’t say enough good things about him. He sounds effortless no matter what style he’s playing, and is as much fun to be around offstage as on.
What a small world - I was at this show! My buddy Matt Smith and I (rightmost heads in the audience shot) stood in the front row, jaws open the whole show. Matt actually opened this show with Jeff Sipe, the drummer, as they have a long history together + have recorded together. I think every guitarist in Fayetteville was there that night. Thank you so much for this transcription! Its always good to have more people aware of Jimmy Herring.
Since Ive been Lovin has always been my favorite Jimmy Page solos. I feel like the song maybe goes under the radar when it comes to epic Zepp tunes... i guess there are a lot to choose from. Might be my fav Blues solo alll time because of how big of an impact it had on my development as a player. This take on the changes was a master class. Top shelf
Jimmy Herring and Jack Pearson are two of my all-time favourite guitarists. And yes, they are most underrated, and should be far more known than they actually are. So, thanks for that, Levi!
Jack Pearson is so underrated it is criminal. Also, the fact that the guy constantly plays Squier Bullets nowadays is such a slap in the face for gear elitists. I hope Levi Clay sheds light into the skills of Jack sooner or later. Finally, his slide playing sound is the closest to that of Duane Allman in the Brothers.
I’ve been seeing Jimmy since I was a kid in high school when he was in “Colonel Bruce Hampton and the aquarium rescue Unit”. His playing has always blow me away. His use of swells in his solo here is insanely cool!
What year at Bonnaroo? I was there in 2004 and remembered Warren Hayes playing with The Dead. I was a little "off". Was Jimmy there also? I remember it raining its ass off, right before The Dead took stage. Following Dave Mathews and friends the night before was tough for anyone.The Dead were good. But Dave Mathews and Tim Reynolds playing Dancing Nancies was a highlight in my concert going life. Tim is a monster player
Lucky enough to see Jimmy with Col. Hampton and A.R.U. more times than I can count in the early 90's here in B'ham, AL. I would stand in front Jimmy's amp and have my face melted at The Nick! His work in Jazz is Dead is outstanding... And after He made some amazing music with Phil Lesh Quintet ("the Q") in the early 2000's. You can find all this stuff on UA-cam - including some early A.R.U. Also his album Lifeboat - the title track with Derek Trucks is a thing of powerful beauty! One of my top three favorite guitarists of all time!
We opened for Jazz Is Dead in the 90’s and other than being a complete monster on his axe he was a really cool hang…we played football in the hall after the show, so fun. So humble and chill, a wonderful guy.
He's new to me. Glad this popped up on my suggestions! Thanks for posting it.👍 You did fail to mention his perfect touch with the volume pedal which, along with everything else was impeccable.
Jimmy Herring did a series if classes at Atlanta Institute of Music years ago and i was lucky enough to be there at that time. What a fantastic guitarist, teacher and person. A really great guy.
I owe you a debt of gratitude for the amount of guitarists you've introduced me to. This guys great! Love the high harmonics he's getting from his bends. Very cool. Gunna have to dive into his stuff when I get home, gigging tonight, it'll be nice to have something to listen too while I'm unable to sleep. 😝😅✌️
@@theofficialdiamondlou2418 it's a thing, I've always had issues with insomnia, but sometimes after a gig it's impossible to shut down. By the time you've figured out all the stuff you did wrong, all the stuff you got right and all the stuff you enjoyed either way, it's probably 3am. 😂🙏✌️😎
@@SeagoGuitarist yep. Same here. My wife has learned ,she just goes to bed and says “see ya tomorrow.” Lol as I review videos and just reflect on the night overall.
I went to a HORDE festival tour show in the mid 90’s in B’ham and it was the last show of the tour. Lots of the musicians took turns jamming with the other bands that day just for their own fun I think. Jimmy played with the first band that day, ARU, and I think he ended up playing with every band that came after, 5 more bands if I recall correctly. It seemed like he never left the stage. He’s an amazing musician capable of playing with anyone. I’ve seen him more times than I can remember now but he always put on an amazing performance and everyone he plays with seems to love him.
Your title description drew me in and you are right! It's a great blending of the two players you mentioned and what a great feel this cat has! Loved it! WOOF!
This guy was in the Allman Brothers Band also. The ABB has had some of the greatest guitarists of all time in their different lineups over almost half a century.
Probably the best blues rock song of all time ! Would've loved to hear a singer join in ... but yeah ... Jimmy brought the whole package, tone, touch, phrasing, passion and good taste !!!
Lord have mercy! I've been a huge fan of Jimmy playing for years now, what an absolute MONSTER! His diminished side is among the best ive ever heard. this since I've been loving you has been off of my radar somehow. Thanks!
Jimmy is in My Top 5 of all time....I've been listening and gone to so many of his concerts ....I loved ARU days with the Colonel and all of his side projects....him and Phil fit perfectly together for so many years that to me "He's the Best Jerry Replicator Ever"(My opinion) and now he fits Panic like he owns it....Mikey is Proud
Oh my that’s the great Jimmy Herring! Aquarium Rescue Unit was the band years ago that turned me on to him! Rest In Peace Colonel Bruce Hampton! Great guy, got to hang with him once with the guys from Matchbox 20 and Sweetvine at a hotel bar!
this piece is about 10 more minutes if you look for it = and his own group Widespread panic with tedeschi trucks live is great doing you can't always get what you want- he plays fusion as well- rare player
Too true. Probably the best Jam rock guitarist, nay rock guitarist there has ever been. And a super sweet dude to boot. Had the great luck to have a beer with him at higher ground before a Jazz is Dead show. Lovely human being.
I first saw Jimmy Herring in August, 2002 when he took the place of Jerry Garcia in the Dead’s first reunion in Wisconsin. As a guitarist, I was blown away at his technique. He was perfect at replicating Jerry’s licks. Such feel with monster tone.
That's Jeff Sipe on drums, you know, the guy who played with Shawn Lane. Jimmy plays with Widespread Panic these days. I highly recommend seeing them live.
Love your videos; your opening me up to a whole new world of incredible musicians! Thank you and merry Christmas Levi! ❤ and this guitarist in this video is one of the best tones and phrasing I’ve heard in a long time! Wow! 😮😮😮😮😮😮
Be sure to check out widespread panic, jimmy’s main gig. Jimmy is the band’s third lead guitarist, so look for live shows and albums released post-2006. Don’t sleep in Mikey’s stuff up until 2002. 2002-2006 didn’t happen.
I saw 'Jazz Is Dead' in NYC in the late '90's and thought Jimmy was the best guitarist I'd ever seen live. And now I'm pretty sure he's the best guitarist I've ever seen on UA-cam.
The ol colonel knew what he was doing when he paired O'Teal and Jimmy together. God WHT a duo they were. Jimmy made Panic my favorite jam band, and anything from Lifeboat will impress. Master of the tremolo bar
I really love your short transcriptions! It would be great if you could include the chord progression over the bars and/or the tuning of the guitar if its applicable to understand. Best regards from Germany!
@@LeviClay You're right, I skipped over the introduction to an massive artist that's been playing in the scene for decades, but I'm glad you found him. I'm sure others will appreciate your review.
Jimmy never played "Since I've Been Loving You" so smoothly, but THIS Jimmy did. I've heard of Jimmy Herring forever, but have never searched out his playing. Now I am going to have to!
His playing with Jazz Is Dead was phenomenal, on guitar he was the perfect fit to play lead on any grateful dead song. Saw him perform back in the with The ABB and that was a real treat and surprise at the time. God bless

Yeah man. Met him when he was with Bruce Hampton and the ARU. Super nice guy. We both laughed at how many hours we'd logged listening to Steve Morse.
Simply Beautiful I bet he's even a nicer guy then how he plays the real deal thank you
hell man,not many guitarists make me say...i wanna play with this guy,but yep i'd pick up my sticks for him!!
Behold folks, if anyone ever made a deal at whatever crossroads, bet this is the guy.
He got duo humbukers, I'm just wondering what kind. Need to get some for my son's fender.
It's beyond words how good this is. The tone, the phrasing, the melodic content...........just fantastic.
Wow, you're not kidding! The precision of the bends too...spot on. Great thing to wake up to this side of the pond. Hope you're thriving Levi!

Was this recent? I see he's playing that Strat with P-90s from the rig rundown ages ago....

That live version off of Song Remains the Same...💯🔥
Yes that girl starting to laugh in the middle of Page's solo! Always been my best solo EVER!
Agreed

Wow! Levi, thanks for this... He's soooo relaxed and laid back with
the phrasing, creating an elastic stretchy sense of time. Excellent...
Wow thanks for showing that to us. Beautiful guitar work, and excellent tabs
Thank you for this transcription, well done.
Incredible transcription thanks for sharing!
He is a gem in the jam band scene. When I first heard him he was playing with The Dead at Bonnaroo. He is an amazing guitarist.

Jeff Sipe on drums and Neal Fountain on bass should NOT be overlooked 😲
Incredible musicianship ♫♬
They should NOT is c100% correct.
And Matt Slocum on the keys.
I has just about to comment on Jeff Sipe on drums. What a great lineup.
If the drummer has a lot of ability he sure is hiding it.
Sipe is one of my all time favorite drummers.
We opened for Jazz Is Dead in the 90’s and other than being a complete monster on his axe he was a really cool hang…we played football in the hall after the show, so fun. So humble and chill, a wonderful guy.
Man this guy is making finger bends that parallel some of Derek Trucks slide sounds. Wow!!!!
3:12 nice little quote from Zep's " You Shook Me" solo :)
He's new to me. Glad this popped up on my suggestions! Thanks for posting it.👍 You did fail to mention his perfect touch with the volume pedal which, along with everything else was impeccable.
This guitarist is in a league of his own.
WOW, hats off to you sir
I saw him live with Panic at Suwannee a few years back. Didn't even know who he was. I was right in front of him and he blew my mind
Heard the name a few times but it's my first time hearing him play. Phenomenal player. Lot of control, technique and very musical.
OMG, he's got so much feel and the notes he plays are so good. A real GEM finding this dude.
Thanks for posting mate, cheers.
Jimmy Herring did a series if classes at Atlanta Institute of Music years ago and i was lucky enough to be there at that time. What a fantastic guitarist, teacher and person. A really great guy.
I hear a little bit of Roy Buchanan influence in his playing, too. Definitely nails it

What is the name of the song, sir?
@@stefanchernev4996 "Since I've Been Loving You" By Led Zeppelin !
Im loving this. At least some new inspiration. Thanks Levi 😊
Excellent rendition of Since I've been loving you.
they all sound KILLER. incredible stuff
Sounds like a saxophone in some parts. Very unique indeed! Thanks for posting
Incredible playing, unbelievable sound and awesome choice of the notes he’s gonna play.
I was in the same class as Jimmy at MI. I got to know him and his brother a bit that year. Great players and really cool guys too.
What a great player, thanks for putting this out. Great cadence
Thank you for this. freaking awesome
Lord have mercy! I've been a huge fan of Jimmy playing for years now, what an absolute MONSTER! His diminished side is among the best ive ever heard. this since I've been loving you has been off of my radar somehow. Thanks!
That was really great! Somehow it worked out that I was planning to play around with this song today and this is perfect!
Wow absolutely spectacular cover of this absolutely spectacular Page solo of what deserves to be a zep classic
I’m from Atlanta and Macon Ga …been seeing him play live for over 30 year … he is amazing ..he uses lots of volume pedals
Thank you so much, Levi!
Jimmy is in My Top 5 of all time....I've been listening and gone to so many of his concerts ....I loved ARU days with the Colonel and all of his side projects....him and Phil fit perfectly together for so many years that to me "He's the Best Jerry Replicator Ever"(My opinion) and now he fits Panic like he owns it....Mikey is Proud

So much quality here!
Hurly furk. My fave blues choon, and this is the best I've heard that opening played.

Man this guy plays really cleanly. Tight control with feel. Excellent
Theres a great clip of him playing Stratus in 2015 with Warren Haynes, really tasteful playing. Great videos, massively appreciated
Jimmy Herring did an amazing tour with John Mclaughlin a few years ago. What a monster player!
We went to see that show. Unbelievable!
Yeah, you titled this vid correctly! Between Jeff and David for sure! Very nice!
Too true. Probably the best Jam rock guitarist, nay rock guitarist there has ever been. And a super sweet dude to boot. Had the great luck to have a beer with him at higher ground before a Jazz is Dead show. Lovely human being.

Glad you enjoy it!
Saw him with ARU, great player for sure, thanks for reminding me/us.

Herring’s turn with The Other Ones after Jerry’s death is also a pinnacle. Saw him live, 2nd row center, lead a great band through a surpassing show.
Thank you for the discovery. I didn't know him. He is an amazing player !

Apartment Q258!
Amazing video, thank you. I had heard of Jimmy Herring, but never heard him until today. He’s absolutely amazing.
Jimmy was in my class at GIT back in 1984. Super nice guy, fantastic musician!
Where have you been , JH has been around for a long time, but glad he gets more airtime, great bloke and even better player
Where have you been? This is like 2 years old.
The description was spot on! He has that bendy strat tone with the same sense of melodic space
💪

I was introduced to Jimmy late at night watching a Widespread Panic show.
Right away…. You knew he was a special player.
Great everything!!!
I think we are witnessing a new genre in the making.🎸🤟👍💜
He’s great. Love this video and his style.
WOW, that is more than just musicianship, I have never heard "feel" like that before - completely blown away
His interview on “No Guitar is Safe” podcast.
He just plays stuff that Is so good. And he’s just the best interview to listen to.
This is great Levi. Jimmy Herring has technique and feeling in spades, thanks for posting & transcribing. Going to have to check out more of his work.

Playing like this requires years and years of development. Not just the tech but more the ear.
I remember first seeing Jimmy with Col Bruce and ARU in the early 90’s. Changed my life.
Great player, congrats !
It’s a lesson of good taste and feeling! And ! Love the band too!

He’s doing a cover of Since I’ve Been Loving You by Led Zeppelin so look up the chords to that
Wonderful, making really good use of his volume pedal. A volume pedal can sometimes get you to places rolling on and off can't.
Glad to see you finally found him. Go back and check out him with Aquarium Rescue Unit and Jazz is Dead. He's been a jam scene god for years.
