In the early 70's the James Gang had a concert in Murfreesboro, TN which is about 20 miles from my childhood home. We went to see the James Gang and when they came out on stage I didn't see Joe Walsh anywhere. He had left the band a few months earlier. Of course the promoters didn't mention that on the radio ads and finding out information about rockers at the time was like looking for Nessie. The concert sucked.
Great one-liners here: "Guys, we're not building violins here." "Don't sweat playing it perfect Play it and love it." This is the philosophy that every music instructor should embrace.
Thank you! I am firmly of the opinion that music is for everyone and everyone can play music! I’m the furthest thing from a virtuoso you will find! I play sloppy, I make mistakes, but love to play and I think everyone should! Thanks so much for watching!
@@ClassicGuitarRockJFL I've been playing (with) this tune for decades and have never looked at how anyone other than Joe plays is until now, preferring instead to figure out how to play it the way it sounds on the record using mostly my ears. I ended up here from the lazy power chords video you mentioned, and I'm glad I did, because I picked up a couple of tasty little morsels from your tutelage here. I am compelled to hit the subscribe button and also, thanks! Funk it up indeed! Imma go do a little of that right now I think, so I can try out what you've bestowed upon me here. 😁👍
Excellent vid! I have the same "cheapy" guitar but yellow. Really underated guitars. Its a cool riff and you got the whole vibe of the song (and rock n roll) right. No point doing it if it dont make you smile. Keep it up!
Thank you! Actually very low tech setup. I have a little Yamaha THR desk top amp on the British Gain setting. I just run out of the headphone jack into my little USB mixer. It works pretty well. Thanks so much for watching!
@@guitarocd9984 Oh Yeah, Funk 49. I use my Strat through a dimed 1947 Magnatone, I hit the front end of the amp hard enough that the power section just falls down and sounds beautiful. Pretty sure Protective Services would remove that little amp from the home if they knew how much it was being abused..........................
Here's what bugs me the most about this video. We are being taught a great rock classic by a mediocre skilled guitarist at best.. If you TRULY want to learn this song. Learn it from the song.. Not this hack

Ha! Super easy to play but it sounds complex. Love rock and roll.
An absolute classic! Very well played 👍 Top t-shirt too 😉😎
Thanks so much for watching!
Great lesson. Shows just how advanced Joe was in those days. And today even.
Agreed! That whole album is incredible!
Yeah buddy!!! We play this one in Suave Agave! Love it.
One of my all time favorites! Thanks for watching!
Kool one thanks for posting!

Great lesson man, that was awesome 😀🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for watching!
P90's man! Said of Page: "He's gritty but he get's the job done"
Thanks for watching!
Thanks, that is fun
Yes it was a champ, I have one, 1965 mint and will never sell it.
How are you recording your guitar? It sounds incredible!

@@ClassicGuitarRockJFL man it sounds expensive! 😂🤘
There's a little thing that happens after the break down nobody ever shows it and I can't figure it out.
It’s that funky little lick? To be honest I’ve never learned it.... I just do my own thing.
Ok thanks

What are you doing here. I got a couple suggestions for this channel. Did you watch The Lazy Billy Gibbons Chord thing that was pretty cool.
Buen tutorial.
Gracias!
I have that same guitar. did you do any mods to it as it a bit of a nightmare for going out of tune
my fave part was when you said "whoops" 😹
Keep watching! That’s a regular occurrence! 🤣
@@ClassicGuitarRockJFL I will for sure! Makes me feel right at home. 😹
Telly though a champ is what he used.
The intro has very specific micro bends but if you play it 3x going down it sounds closest to the record to me
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
@@ClassicGuitarRockJFL thanks for posting!! Total classic and my favorite Joe Walsh song
🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
nobody ever shows where the guitar comes back in after the drum solo
That’s cuz that’s the trickiest part and most UA-cam guitar hacks like my self are very lazy! 🙄🤣
That
That return occurs in Funk 48, just a little goodies. But Joe was a goof.
Joe does alot of muting in this song too
Maximum slop LOL
Definitely a sloppy version.
nope
Here's what bugs me the most about this video.

Not gonna disagree with you. Please share a link to your lesson so we can all learn it right.
