  • VIRTUAL TIP JAR IN DESCRIPTION! Join me as I break this classic song down! Probably my favorite Steve Cropper rhythm track ever...NINETY NINE AND A HALF! This was recorded in 1965 at famed Muscle Shoals Studio and released in 1966 on the album "The Exciting Sounds Of Wilson Pickett". Also on that record were "Land Of 1000 Dances", "Soulsville USA", and "In The Midnight Hour". "Duck" Dunn and Al Jackson, also from Booker T and The MG's played on this session. Steve Cropper actually co-wrote a lot of the songs and co-produced it with Rick Hall from Muscle Shoals studio. So fonky, y'all!

    This song needed someone to explain it. One of the greatest riffs of all time. Menacing. The horns are just incredible as well. Thank gawd for Steve Cropper. The intro and breakdown blows my mind every damn time. And yes, Hendrix nicked that for 'Them Changes'. Glad I have a Telecaster. Great lesson!

    Jake" my favorite, Rhythm Blues' s'Soul tune out there
    I'm 70' always been a (rhythm) player can't control my body movements when I hear this funky"song. Go deep into the dark tracks, you can hear the Rhythm player( chucking) out his chords' his style'. This tune
    Is 99 1/2 treble,1/2 fuzz.
    They don't make them like this anymore, and they can't!

      No they just can't seem to make 'em like this anymore Jerry! Those recordings from that era are so iconic and can't be reproduced. That's why I'm still listening to 'em now!

      @@JakeAndrewsMusic I have a '70 100W Super Lead, not sure if that's considered a Plexi, but it is a great amp (maybe a little loud LOL)...Great video, Jake, please consider doing more R&B lessons- you do a great job. Lots of single note solo lessons out there, but good, fundamental guitar rhythm parts, not so much. Thanks again!

    Thanks for the post , love the A7 slide slur thing 🙃 intro I like where you play firstE7 chord 5th fret I guess I can do gliss Off B 4th fret after that
    I here E7 #9 to Edim first & 2nd fret back E7#9 then A. Sounds like top four strings More Funky , Cheers !

    • @JakeAndrewsMusic
      @JakeAndrewsMusic  2 роки тому

      Cool, thanks! That is just the coolest part-where Steve Cropper does that slide back and forth on the A7. And yes funkier on the top 4 strings. So glad you enjoyed the lesson!

    Jake, allow me to correct you. Six of the songs on “The Exciting Wilson Pickett” album were recorded in Memphis. The song you’re playing was recorded at the Stax studio on Dec 20, 1965.

    Your guitar is too loud and sounds terrible, you have no sense of dynamics.
