    ► Lesson video: • Let's learn EVERY Lick...
    This one goes out to the Goblin Queen. You know who you are... Enjoy!
    Well, Mark Knopfler... What an insane player!
    He has always been a huge inspiration of mine and I've learnt so much technique over the years. An absolute riff monster, great song writer and performer all rolled in to one.
    You can play this song with a pick if you like but you'll never get the same feel or sound as playing it with your fingers. I'd say this is like 98% right in terms of the positions and riffs that he laid down on the track. Naturally I play a few things differently just because I'm me.
    It's also not the same without the headband!
    All instrumentation minus the drums is me. I found a track online and made the whole tune myself. SOOOOOOOO much fun as you can imagine!
    Enjoy it guys! Let me know what you think and if there's anything else you'd like to hear!
    Best,
    S

    Masterful, from beginning to end. I studiously learned every lick from Sped and the solos but putting it all together is difficult. I like the bass line for reference but when it took over the screen I lost my Sped- Mind- Meld for a moment.

    Yes it needs to be played with a pick and ghost notes. Notice how he mutes the Bass notes with his right palm.
    He nails it !

    Mr. sped Shedding. Hi I came to this page after working a day or so on the sultans lick you have . I of course like most am stammering through the first few licks. Your teaching approach is fantastic. now I am watching this video of you playing it all. in time.. You are just amazing. spectacular. thanks so very much for posting the licks for people like me to learn.

    You cannot just make this video, then a tutorial covering every lick and not cover the solos.... with that being said, I very much appreciate you and the time it took to make the tutorial video for the licks. Very well done man. Hope to see the solos up sometime soon!

    • @SpedSpedding
      @SpedSpedding  3 роки тому +1

      I can and I did. 😂🙌🏻
      I made the recent tutorial years after this cover got popular; I have had a mad few years, had I made the lesson video closer to this cover it would be way more popular. The licks video didn’t really do big numbers so I thought people weren’t interested in the solos, or have learned them elsewhere. People tend to learn solos and forget the licks/rest of the song. That lesson video was to fill the gaps for many.
