You're a great player Adrian in so many ways how you can weave in and out of styles is incredible and you are a great teacher and approachable person. You make YT a better place.
FYI: not a gear guy, but that LP is (imo) hands down the best sounding of your many guitars. Clear highs, balanced mids and punchy, articulate low E / A strings - as in zero mudd. Got yourself a good one.
I've been listening to your Zodiac Toys album again recently which I really like. You can go from that to this stuff and everything in between. Makes this channel so good Adrian. Great lesson for blues licks.
More than a passable Clapton evocation in that opening take on the tune. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Will get to the lesson later. Guests arriving right now... Grr.. Just when you're having fun! 😉😉
Great lesson Adrian! I appreciate the periodic return to the blues. The variety on your channel is wonderful-love your country, R&B, and post punk lessons but the blues are so foundational to me as an intermediate guitarist. Mick Taylor or Mike Bloomfield would be great.
Loved it. WRT to the tone, I'm now satisfied that it's not all that hard. Some PAF type pickups, a moderate gain vintage tube amp sound, and then, I think, a little bit of the high trebles taken off by the desk - or an eq pedal.
Clapton would approve of you no question about THAT! My favorite guitar sound is still the Yardbirds For Your Love LP (The Purple one. A perfect blend of Blues and Pop!
I personally can never get enough blues lessons , of any era / flavour ,it would be nice to see your take on the old acoustic stuff That said, i'm suited with your diverse choices. It keeps things fresh
Absolutely love early Clapton. Just a phenomenal, prodigious talent, who does not deserve the disrespect he constantly gets online-at least not for his guitar playing. “He only knows one scale “, “He just copies of old blues players” are just a couple of the typical comments that fall apart after being considered for more than two seconds.
There are people out there who will never achieve anything in music who make it their mission to crap on people who have made it apart from a select few that they fanboy over. Clapton, Page, Slash, Edge, Noel Gallagher, George Harrison etc. etc. Guys who written songs, riffs and solos that the world can sing along to being dismissed by guys whose own best friends won’t listen to their home recordings more than once.
Adrian, thanks a lot for a close look at one of my favorite tunes. Another one I'd like to see is Freddie King's version of The Stumble. And maybe an acoustic tune in an alternate tuning - Little Martha?
Great job! Great description of Clapton’s style of playing at that point in his career. Would love to hear your thoughts on his more melodic stuff like Why Does Love…and Got To Get Better… from Derek & The Doninoes Live at the Fillmore. IMHO that was the pinnacle of his playing.
My favorite Clapton blues track is "Tore Down" (another Freddie King cover!) (excluding the blues tracks on the Derek and the Dominos album - that is the sweetest!)
This is a FREDDY KING classic, i believe he Wrote it, and did do it before Clapton. YOU DID GREAT and I knew you would on this, for years I wondered how that turnaround bit was done, I could play the whole tune but used to hit that part and i thought what in the World is being done here, you cover that it is Chorus 5. Thanks for showing this CLASSIC.
You are a great teacher! So much so, I am not a patreon member. The frustrating part is how horrible Patreon is to use. I guess I need to use UA-cam or organize your lessons the search for them on Patreon. I wish I had started watching you earlier. Thank you!
The riff from Chorus 3 is note for note the same riff used in a song called "The Walk" by the Inmates (great 80s rock band). I loved that band when I was in college. I thought that the Inmates copied Hideaway, but no! I just googled and learned that The Walk by the Inmates version is a cover of the original version by Jimmy McCracklin from 1958. So I guess Clapton was copying the McCracklin song.
Great video! How about Michael Bloomfield in the Super Sessions. The song “Stop” is perfect. My second choice would be Roy Buchanan “Sweet Dreams” if you are more of a Tele guy! Cheers!
Incredible tone, funky phrasing and a sweet tone! I think an LA-2 compressor may have been used on the session. Phil Taylor at Effectrode makes a tube compressor pedal based on the LA-2. Again, great choice.
I do mention it. But Clapton's take on the tune is in fact very different from the original, and it's his playing that I wanted to focus on this video. But obviously Freddie King is great, and I may well look at something of his in the future.
Freddy was also great. His tone with the 335 and 1960 era amp was a bit thin though and less accessible to modern ears, or mine anyway. Likewise from the same album, Otis Rush's original recording of All Your Love... is less thrilling than its Bluesbreakers cover. The beano album is a beast of a record, in a good way.
@@rehkramClapton is one of my biggest heroes/influences but respectfully disagree that All Your Love is better in the Beano album than the original Otis Rush version. He’s a better singer than John and it has a more exotic sound than Clapton’s. Probably a tie when it comes to Hideaway. I think the only time Freddie King was bested by a cover version is Peter Green doing The Stumble. Holy smokes 🤯…anyway just my opinion..agree the Beano album is the “big bang” when it comes to British Blues. Cheers.

Genuinely one of the best guitar channels on YT. Learnt so much from you! Thanks for your continued hard work.

Wonderful job. Great tone and excellent lesson.
Brilliant stuff as usual, Adrian. Thanks.

Great breakdown of this classic!
Masterpiece album , thank you for this lesson ,
More than a passable Clapton evocation in that opening take on the tune. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Will get to the lesson later. Guests arriving right now... Grr.. Just when you're having fun! 😉😉
Thanks Adrian love what you do, the most eclectic taste of teachers on You Tube and you always come across as a really nice guy. Thanks again
Thank you! A must-know track indeed
Class, as always. Thanks a million.
Great lesson Adrian! I appreciate the periodic return to the blues. The variety on your channel is wonderful-love your country, R&B, and post punk lessons but the blues are so foundational to me as an intermediate guitarist. Mick Taylor or Mike Bloomfield would be great.
Very impressive Adrian. You are way too modest!
Loved it. WRT to the tone, I'm now satisfied that it's not all that hard. Some PAF type pickups, a moderate gain vintage tube amp sound, and then, I think, a little bit of the high trebles taken off by the desk - or an eq pedal.
Great stuff mate!!
Thank you! This is right in my wheel house as to what I've been trying to get solid. This will definitely help me clean it up.
Great lesson. Thank you.
As ever great video and playing
Clapton would approve of you no question about THAT! My favorite guitar sound is still the Yardbirds For Your Love LP (The Purple one. A perfect blend of Blues and Pop!
You capture the sound and style fine 👍
I personally can never get enough blues lessons , of any era / flavour ,it would be nice to see your take on the old acoustic stuff
That said, i'm suited with your diverse choices. It keeps things fresh
Well, that was fun! Thanks Adrian.
Back in 1966/67 when i started playing GTR "Hideaway" was a must know/play instrumental!!! Thnx for posting this!!!

The “One Scale” that he knows served him very, very well. How come his detractors can’t seem to do the same?
Adrian, thanks a lot for a close look at one of my favorite tunes. Another one I'd like to see is Freddie King's version of The Stumble. And maybe an acoustic tune in an alternate tuning - Little Martha?
So incredible Adrian
Awesome, Thankyou 🎸🎶🎸
So cool your lessons.
Greetings from Tupelo Mississippi.
Great choice!!

Would love to hear your thoughts on his more melodic stuff like Why Does Love…and Got To Get Better… from Derek & The Doninoes Live at the Fillmore. IMHO that was the pinnacle of his playing.
Would to love see the 2nd half of the srv version

Don't understand sell yourself. You are a great player, in all different styles.

Top stuff. Apparently all the knobs were set to seven except the volume which was of course at full on.
7:20….. Upstrokes Addy!
You forgot to mention the upstrokes!
👍🇦🇺
Killer !!!
You are a great teacher! So much so, I am not a patreon member. The frustrating part is how horrible Patreon is to use. I guess I need to use UA-cam or organize your lessons the search for them on Patreon. I wish I had started watching you earlier. Thank you!
Forgive me for going all TPS on you... "But what are the settings?" :D GREAT VIDEO!
Yes please Mick Taylor!!!

Hi Adrian thanks for another great lesson 👍 what is the colour of your LP please?
Great video! How about Michael Bloomfield in the Super Sessions. The song “Stop” is perfect. My second choice would be Roy Buchanan “Sweet Dreams” if you are more of a Tele guy! Cheers!
don't be coy, that Les Paul deserves to be played, and you got it well in hand... 🎵r0ckoN 🎵
Mr. Adrian, you nailed it! Would you be so kind and tell me what gauge strings you are are using?
Love your channel, that Gibson is gorgeous, what model is it?
❤
Incredible tone, funky phrasing and a sweet tone! I think an LA-2 compressor may have been used on the session. Phil Taylor at Effectrode makes a tube compressor pedal based on the LA-2. Again, great choice.
C'mon Adrian, everyone wants to know all the details of that great LP....colour, model, PUs, etc.
Can't think why you'd need to practice for a month 😂
This is an almost note for note cover of the original Freddie King version. Why not focus on the original?
I do mention it. But Clapton's take on the tune is in fact very different from the original, and it's his playing that I wanted to focus on this video. But obviously Freddie King is great, and I may well look at something of his in the future.
FK had such a great and unique flow

Eric Clapton is sooooooooo boring.
Expressing an opinion without censure is one of the beauties of life in a democracy
In that spirit, were you around then ?
I'll bet you get old to listen to!
Rather hear Clapton
