Man, Out on the tiles is such an underrated Zeppelin tune. Out of all the top 10 best Zeppelin riffs or whatever videos, somehow this and The Rover as well don't make it, while this is one of the coolest stuff they have imo. Thanks for the video man, much appreciated!
You’re welcome, I agree. That’s why I wanted to shed some light on it. Maybe IV casts a little bit of a shadow on some of the earlier tunes as it hade HUGE tracks on there.
Just found sped. I know I’m a slow learner. Sped is awesome entertaining and knowledgeable. He’s helped me learn how to play Jimmy better than anyone else. And take my guitar playing to the next level after about a decade long plateau. I hope you’re still shredding Sped!
@@SpedSpedding For as long as I have loved Zeppelin it seems that every riff Page has written always has something unexpected or unique that makes my jaw drop. A perfect example is your lesson on When the Levee Breaks and that FACFAC tuning that allows you to play that power chord on the top two strings where you just wouldn't expect it. When I saw you play that I literally sat there thinking how in the hell did Page ever envision in his brain. Genius.
You Sir, cannot be thanked enough for showing the riffage of my youth! Yea there’s tabs and books but this is so much more fun…and your teaching style is top shelf👍 I must also say that all of the records I scratched as a 70’s teen trying to learn this stuff, really feels good now knowing that I got at least some of them right…GREAT CHANNEL🤘
Ditto, We have a lot in common in 62 and grew up with Zeppelin ZZ 8 tracks and albums also Cheech and Chong. Hey man, don’t answer the phone, I think the phone is bugged 😁
I can’t imagine the pain people went through picking up that needle every five seconds trying to figure out a riff! I feel for you, respect. 🙌🏻😂 Thanks so much for the compliment, honoured that you’re revisiting some of your favourites with me. ❤️
@@SpedSpedding Hi Busyfingers 24. These kids have no idea how hard life was for us grown-ups back then before mp3 players, looper pedals and mobile phones 😃
Nice lesson. Breaks down each lick to easily learn. Great tune. I always loved this underplayed extra-rockin Zep tune. Now I finally learned to play it exactly right after 30 of stumbling through it at about 80%.
Thanks! Not only do I enjoy your lessons, your sense of humor keeps me coming back. Thanks for your hard work & sharing your love for guitar \,,/ Take care.
Loving all these lessons, Sped. It’s truly impressive how you go into all the meticulous intricacies for each song. Please please do more later zeppelin stuff, specifically the Presence album; it’s LOADED with awesome riffs. Cheers!
Thank you! Yeah I plan on making my way through some of the later albums, got some other stuff I wanna cover this week and next. A lot of people have been asking me about guitar tone etc.
Great lesson. Zep 3 is often regarded as their least best album but I’ve always felt very differently about it. It’s one of my favorites of theirs. A lot of great songs.
Yeah it does have great songs on there. I mentioned this at the start of my reading the other week, they got a lot of bad press and then came back with IV. Not bad right? 💪🏻😂
@@SpedSpedding yeah to release IV after 3 is like 😮. I read once that some magazine gave 4 a mediocre review and dedicated one paragraph to the entire album. One paragraph for all that material!!
Dude you are absolutely amazing and live the life I dream of doing. High quality, crisp voice, great instructions, always keeping it original with these 50 year old songs. Keep it up my man! I hope to get to your point one day
Thanks so much Jarrett, that’s really nice of you. Appreciate the feedback on the extra stuff like quality and crispy videos. Gotta keep on top of my game; UA-cam is a big place. ✨🤘🏻 Wishing you all the luck with everything.
It's early morning here and having my coffee and a sped zeppelin lesson pops up, and it's one of the brilliant but lesser known tracks, many thanks sped, oh thanks for the Xmas prezzie.
Great lesson again, I love the way you get the tone and detail how to get the tricky timing down in Zeppelin songs with the upstrokes vs downstrokes, etc. I know its a very challenging song, but I have tried to tackle Since I've Been Loving You a couple times with some mixed success but would love to see your take on that and possible with a tiny bit of theory explanation of what he is doing and why those note choices sound SO good!
Thanks Brent, appreciate the feedback on all the finer details in the videos. Glad my teaching suits your tastes. I’ll probably make my way through all the big tunes at some point. They can just get a bit overwhelming doing them one after the other, I like to play them and make sure I’ve got everything right before I make the video.
Ya know, time just disappears when Sped starts teaching. One video just blends into another and then those bastards at work are calling, wondering where I’m at. As always, great job!
Written by Bonzo! Best (and only) live versions with the band at the top of their game, 9/4/70 LA and 9/19/70 (NYC evening show). Great job! Can’t wait to play this
Awesome lesson. Please do Hots on for Nowhere by Zep. I've been trying by ear to get it down for quite a while. Your tips for efficiency in moving to an upcoming chord are priceless! Thanks so much for all you and Gabriella do.
REALLY liking the video production. The camera angles showing the fretting hand (and with the lighting) looks...dramatic, AND it's a really good angle to see your fretting fingers. Nice, and I've been binge-watching your videos the past few days, so keep it going' man!
That’s really cool, thanks for taking the time to notice all the extra details and leave in a comment. Commentss like this keep me inspired, enjoy the binge watching. 🍿
Check out Moby Dick from 7-17-1977 in Seattle. The opening is Out on the Tiles. If you watch you can clearly see Page slide up to the A# on the 6th fret of the E string before playing the 4th fret A and D strings with his index finger.
Awesome lesson Sped! I tried to learn this as a teenager back in the day after buying my first music book, Led Zeppelin Complete. Could not quite get it right. Now I think I just might! Thanks for this!
That’s really cool Brian, stoked to be your teacher second time around. I’ve dabbled with books over the years but often disagree with a lot of printed stuff so settled on my ear. I tend to find my own way with playing these songs, they’re usually accurate but my own spin on things. Have fun.
Your tutorials are refreshing mate, can’t believe I’ve only just came across your videos, Robert Plant drinks in the pub down the road from me, I don’t go in there much anymore but he frequents it a lot, little fun fact for ya lol 👍🏼🎸
I’ll have a pint of bathams and a packet of cheese and onion 😂😂 ye I live in a town called Kidderminster in the midlands, your welcome to come down, it’s a s@@thole that’s probably the best thing going for it lol
Hi sped really interesting on tuition you are a great guitar teacher I like the way you break it down in bits to understand for a beginner like me watching your hands on the fretboard helps me a lot as I’m not very good with tab at the moment just got myself a mick Ron’s
Hey, thanks! Appreciate that Wayne! I try my best to create these vids in the same way that I teach one to one. Casual, informative and fun. Glad you're getting on with my style.
Hey man! I was at the Genesis concert last night here in New York ( 2nd row dead center seats too, spectacular! ) so I’m getting a chance to check this out now finally here, very cool and thanks as always 🤙
No problem at all, so cool, how was that? I actually got to meet them whilst I was working at radio2, really nice guys. Haven’t been able to make it to a show though. Hoping it was epic!
Thanks for this Sped, excellent lesson, class song - the beating heart of IV I think. Could you drop a note sometime about the best way of getting the pinched harmonic at 5:40
Have a listen to Rival Sons' 'Pressure and time' ... Similar feel... Love both! Also fairly sure Zep used the intro from it on Black Dog on the ' Zep at the BBC' collection....
Hey Sped, love your lessons mate. Your tone is spot on. When you played the first riff of Black Dog wrong, the look that you make was too funny 😳! Cheers
Sorry about that hit the send button by mistake I was saying I got a mick Ronson replica les Paul by vintage guitars looking forward at giving this a go cheers sped.
Thanks sped for another great lesson. Been taking a break from learning I was starting to get frustrated. Feel like I hit a wall so needed to step away but I’m going to jump back in with this. Rock on 🤘
Mate, that happens to us all! Remember a couple of months ago when I was having my creative burnout? I needed to take a step back from putting too much pressure on myself, join the gym, cut down on the booze a little bit! It’s all had a positive knock-on affect and I’m doing good again. Just enjoy every moment that you’re playing; don’t feel pressured to be anyone other than you, just rocking out and having fun.
You know sped earlier today i was wondering how does jimmy play that riff before starting black dog in 75 earls court and I figured it out by ear and. Its a good start to start any track tbh. And now this lesson comes out. Just magical
Brilliant sped, thanks so much I love the way you explain the lesson and the insights that go with it. Invaluable and so so interesting Your tone is ace 👍 See you over there with the tabs
@@SpedSpedding Hahaha, you're humor kills me man. Your riffs are clean. What's not to like? I'm glad you are bringing Zeppelin to a new generation. When I was 15, just a little over 30 years ago, I started playing.... a few months later my sisters boyfriend lent me every Zeppelin album to copy. I still remember how floored I was. I discovered Jimmi Hendrix that same year........ it changed the way I thought about music. Have a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
Great lesson as always sped one of my fave Zep songs. Pagey did write a lot of bad ass riffs. Personally I like that Black Crowes album with Page. Merry Christmas to you & Gab my friend.
Excellent! Thought I had been playing this correctly for decades. Close, but was about 2 or 3 notes off. As long as you are taking requests, would love to see your take on “For Your Life”. The song has relatively easy parts to figure out, but there are elusive nuances that aren’t so easy to figure out, buried in the mix a bit. You excel at figuring those out :). Thanks again!
Wow sped your a plethora of zep formation aren't ye right ok then,need that book ⁉️thanks again n best of luck with the groovy band .zep has so much .one of my favorites riffs in this one 🤩😳😁🎸🎵🎶🎵🎸✌️😎
@@SpedSpedding you the only guitar teacher I have ever seen on UA-cam, and I’ve seen them all…..that I believe you speak of what finger to use why which is so very important and is part of the incredible guitar “craft” or science…..that no one speaks about but I believe is a critical part of Jimmy page’s playing…..and other guitar players……where music is played on the neck with what fingers is everything….I believe…..and one of the keys to how these fantastic artists made this spectacular music in the first place…..they , like Jimmy, unlocked the god-given “secret code” …..I might have left out another teacher or two but I believe I am correct, sir.
I know, I have the bootlegs of Out On The Tiles. Except for '73, he used OOTT to start Black Dog in concert. Page was too cool. The way I have always rated Zeppelin's LP's has always been Presence first, then the other LP's in the order they were released. LedHed Pb 207.20 🎶 🎸 🎹
I class myself as a music fan rather than a musician even though I've owned a few guitars over the years. (l wouldn'tknow a minor 5th from a diminished 7th if it kicked me in the head!), Anyhow, Zeppelin was my first love, so really enjoying your clear, concise lessons and can't resist playing along on my battered old Ovation acoustic. You have a genuine talent both for playing and teaching. Thanks and cheers Sped!
Thanks so much, I am glad you are getting on with my style. I've really enjoyed connecting with new people over the last couple of months and reading everyones stories of Zeppelin discovery. SO cool.
Rang the bell, Subscribed, also Liked. Also Liked the Video.... Sped, You are fun to watch and learn from. I am always amazed by your tone. Any tone tips?
Haven't picked up my guitar in a year, been thinking about again, and my favorite Zep song pops up with this awesome lesson. This has to be some kind of message from the universe, but is it to eat pizza for breakfast or try and tune my dusty SG?
Very cool lesson, just two minor things I noticed. I'm pretty certain the second note of the main riff is an A, rather than an A#. Then on the descent down, even though it does sound more intuitive the way that you teach it with the half step (B-A-B-A-B-C-B-A), Jimmy Page actually plays B-A-B-A-B-C#-B-A. Even more so than in the original recording this is very clearly audible at the 1977 Bonzo Solo/Out on the Tiles live. Cheers!
Great to see another lesson Sped! It's great to see you giving Led Zeppelin the attention they deserve at the moment... I feel that it's becoming trendy to hate on Led Zeppelin and it's making me sad! You're a light in the darkness! ^a little over dramatic^
Thank you, I agree! I don’t trust people who trendy hate. They all know deep inside what they actually think, sad. That’s why I did the Stairway solo lesson; it’s an incredible song and an exceptional solo. “Ouhhh it’s overplayed….” Shhhhhh no it’s not.
Awesome tutorial Sped! I’m more of bend from the “G” guy myself, but I won’t hold that against you 😂. All seriousness, you did a great job. I also love the information in the beginning!
@@SpedSpedding So I've been playing this song the past week (thanks to your tutorial I finished learning more than just the main riff) and I can say bending from the 4th fret sounds much better. You have converted me. congratulations 🎉🎸 Keep up the great work dude!
I’m going to have to change the way I play this song after watching this. Seems I was playing it in a more difficult way. Haha Great video as always, Sped! 👍🏻
@@SpedSpedding Yeah. Main riff. When you slide into the C# and then hit the F#. I was using my pinky finger to bar across them. It was a lot sloppier. Never occurred to me to slide into the C#.
Thank you. I really enjoy watching you play. Any chance of getting you to play "How Many More Times"? Without all the breaks of course, unless you want to, feel free 🙂
That’s real nice Jo, appreciate that. Will definitely consider all these for future. Got a few gear related things lined up this week and then will get some more lessons out. 🙌🏻
@@SpedSpedding Would like a tube amp, like a Blackstar. But realistically, might be something like a Boss Katana. Right now I'm in headphones through a Johnson J-Station. Old but sounds good.
Well I've not watched this yet Sped..... Another epic Page riff.... You managed to find the slow blues on his solo album?.. .. Outrider I think it's called,... Happy Christmas dude!! X
Are you sure that riff has an A# sharp in it? making it Major sounds odd to me? I have always played this song with F# to an A keeping it in the pentatonic formation. I do put a bit of bend on the notes to blur the lines. but I think the riff Always stays in pentatonic. What is everyone else hearing? ( Thumbs up if you hear it in all pentatonic.)
Yeah I am, I actually started learning it with the Open A and was like "why does this feel slightly off?" I realised he's using a F# major arpeggio just like his verse riff in Good Times Bad Times. The riff feels cheeky as opposed to dark so makes sense that he's major over minor.
@@SpedSpedding Hmm... I agree open A does NOT quite sound right......However... Now try the riff with a 5th fret A (not open A) with a slight bend in it.. I think Jimmy is bending the 5th fret (A) which blurs the Major and Pentatonic lines. everything else you play is spot on! Great video thx
Modern player in the same league as James Page I find is Dean Deleo from Stone Temple Pilots... Try Plush... A killer display of great interlocking riffs.... Though the version from about 3 years ago with a new vocalist is utterly spellbinding... Try it... Though you may have heard it.... Their first four albums are sublime

Always a great day when there's a new Sped lesson, especially such a great neglected tune. Love the 'flip off chord". Thank you!
Hahaha, there’s always someone on the front row worthy of that chord. 😂😂
Thanks!
Thank you Ed!! 🎉
You do really really good job of breaking down these iconic riffs in such a way that it doesn't overwhelm the listener who's trying to learn it.
Music to my ears Doug, that’s exactly what I’m trying to do. Love that they suit your pace and taste. 🙌🏻
@@SpedSpedding For as long as I have loved Zeppelin it seems that every riff Page has written always has something unexpected or unique that makes my jaw drop. A perfect example is your lesson on When the Levee Breaks and that FACFAC tuning that allows you to play that power chord on the top two strings where you just wouldn't expect it. When I saw you play that I literally sat there thinking how in the hell did Page ever envision in his brain. Genius.
You Sir, cannot be thanked enough for showing the riffage of my youth! Yea there’s tabs and books but this is so much more fun…and your teaching style is top shelf👍 I must also say that all of the records I scratched as a 70’s teen trying to learn this stuff, really feels good now knowing that I got at least some of them right…GREAT CHANNEL🤘

Great lesson as always sped one of my fave Zep songs. Pagey did write a lot of bad ass riffs. Personally I like that Black Crowes album with Page. Merry Christmas to you & Gab my friend.
Thank you Joe, Jimmy definitely made a deal with the God of rock riffs! He has them in abundance. Merry Christmas to you too.🎄
Excellent! Thought I had been playing this correctly for decades. Close, but was about 2 or 3 notes off. As long as you are taking requests, would love to see your take on “For Your Life”. The song has relatively easy parts to figure out, but there are elusive nuances that aren’t so easy to figure out, buried in the mix a bit. You excel at figuring those out :). Thanks again!
Which parts have your changed from watching my video then? Always curious. 🧐
Wow sped your a plethora of zep formation aren't ye right ok then,need that book ⁉️thanks again n best of luck with the groovy band .zep has so much .one of my favorites riffs in this one 🤩😳😁🎸🎵🎶🎵🎸✌️😎
Sped is the best at these deep dives into LZ. Would love to see “Darlene” or For your Life” havent seen anybody on YT with those solos.
Great songs! Just joined the channel. Proud to support you and Gabs.
Ahhhh look at that little Sped Head emoji hanging out next to your name, looks awesome. Thanks Dennis!
Excellent job, sir!
Thanks Eric!
@@SpedSpedding you the only guitar teacher I have ever seen on UA-cam, and I’ve seen them all…..that I believe you speak of what finger to use why which is so very important and is part of the incredible guitar “craft” or science…..that no one speaks about but I believe is a critical part of Jimmy page’s playing…..and other guitar players……where music is played on the neck with what fingers is everything….I believe…..and one of the keys to how these fantastic artists made this spectacular music in the first place…..they , like Jimmy, unlocked the god-given “secret code” …..I might have left out another teacher or two but I believe I am correct, sir.
Sped awesome video. I you really do a lesson on In The Evening and or The Wanton Song
Thanks! They’ve been requested before and are on the conveyor belt. 😂 Hope you’re good!
I know, I have the bootlegs of Out On The Tiles. Except for '73, he used OOTT to start Black Dog in concert. Page was too cool.
The way I have always rated Zeppelin's LP's has always been Presence first, then the other LP's in the order they were released.

I class myself as a music fan rather than a musician even though I've owned a few guitars over the years. (l wouldn'tknow a minor 5th from a diminished 7th if it kicked me in the head!), Anyhow, Zeppelin was my first love, so really enjoying your clear, concise lessons and can't resist playing along on my battered old Ovation acoustic. You have a genuine talent both for playing and teaching. Thanks and cheers Sped!
Thanks so much, I am glad you are getting on with my style. I've really enjoyed connecting with new people over the last couple of months and reading everyones stories of Zeppelin discovery. SO cool.
Another great video thanks for the lesson!
You’re welcome Paul, had fun with this one. ✨
Thanks, Sped! You rock, mate! 🎸🤘🏻
Thanks Steve, as do you. Watch out for that Christmas whiskey, it’s a strong one. 😂
Rang the bell, Subscribed, also Liked. Also Liked the Video.... Sped, You are fun to watch and learn from. I am always amazed by your tone. Any tone tips?
Thanks as always Bob. My tip will be to watch this channel over the next week or so as there will be a tone video dropping. 💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks Sped! 🎸😎
Welcome Keith. 🙏🏻
Plant sings his ass off on this . His phrasing is incredible. Huge riff by Zeppelin
Great lesson as always!!
Epic, thank you! Had fun with this one. Hope you managed to brew up in the middle. 😂
🍻
Haven't picked up my guitar in a year, been thinking about again, and my favorite Zep song pops up with this awesome lesson.
This has to be some kind of message from the universe, but is it to eat pizza for breakfast or try and tune my dusty SG?
I am telling you to put down that pizza and pick up that guitar! You're not lost anymore soldier. 🙏🏻
Could you make a white summer live at royal Albert hall lesson please!!!???
Very cool lesson, just two minor things I noticed. I'm pretty certain the second note of the main riff is an A, rather than an A#. Then on the descent down, even though it does sound more intuitive the way that you teach it with the half step (B-A-B-A-B-C-B-A), Jimmy Page actually plays B-A-B-A-B-C#-B-A. Even more so than in the original recording this is very clearly audible at the 1977 Bonzo Solo/Out on the Tiles live. Cheers!
Amazing as usual! Thanks a lot man :D
My pleasure, you’re welcome.
Great to see another lesson Sped! It's great to see you giving Led Zeppelin the attention they deserve at the moment... I feel that it's becoming trendy to hate on Led Zeppelin and it's making me sad! You're a light in the darkness!
^a little over dramatic^
Thank you, I agree! I don’t trust people who trendy hate. They all know deep inside what they actually think, sad. That’s why I did the Stairway solo lesson; it’s an incredible song and an exceptional solo. “Ouhhh it’s overplayed….” Shhhhhh no it’s not.
@@SpedSpedding I applaud all the people who are brave enough to play stairway at a guitar shop! It's 'overplayed' for a reason damn it!
Awesome tutorial Sped! I’m more of bend from the “G” guy myself, but I won’t hold that against you 😂.
All seriousness, you did a great job. I also love the information in the beginning!
We’ve got some serious work to do if we’re gonna get you up to that 4th fret. Come on, join my gang; you gotta pull it up to the roooooot.
@@SpedSpedding So I've been playing this song the past week (thanks to your tutorial I finished learning more than just the main riff) and I can say bending from the 4th fret sounds much better. You have converted me. congratulations 🎉🎸
Keep up the great work dude!
Yay! One of my favorites. Nice!
Sweet Eddy, I chose wisely! 💪🏻😂
These are the best zeplessons !!
Thank you, you’re too kind. 🙌🏻
I always learn something new about playing a Zep tune from His Spedishness and I’ve been playing since ‘78. Can you put Sick Again on the list? 🙏🏻
It’s on the list for sure. And I love that, thank you Mark. Keep rocking and having fun. 🤘🏻🎄
Awesome thanks bro
I’m going to have to change the way I play this song after watching this. Seems I was playing it in a more difficult way. Haha
Great video as always, Sped! 👍🏻
Oh really? That’s interesting. Which way did you have it? We must be talking the main riff?
@@SpedSpedding Yeah. Main riff. When you slide into the C# and then hit the F#. I was using my pinky finger to bar across them. It was a lot sloppier. Never occurred to me to slide into the C#.
It's the drum roll-out at the end that makes it for me. As if you are about to miss some enormous, ball crushing jam session.
Haha, I reckon that there’s a huge jam session and solo and they kept it all to themselves, never to be heard. 🍿😂
Excellent lesson. One of my favorite Zep tracks. Pardon the mundane question but might I ask what strings you use on your Les Paul?
It's a 1998 Standard Honeyburst. If you want a bit more info on it check out my 57 PAF installation video!
Pure Ledge... ( Legend) thanks Sped
You’re welcome! Thanks for the hype. ✨💪🏻
where does the 'stop' off the recording fit in?
Sped, can you do a lesson on The Lemon Song? Love the content!
It’s definitely on the cards friend. 🍋
@@SpedSpedding thank you!
thank you
Your videos are great!
Glad you like them Tim!
@@SpedSpedding love the humor and the accuracy. Thanks again
Thank you. I really enjoy watching you play. Any chance of getting you to play "How Many More Times"? Without all the breaks of course, unless you want to, feel free 🙂
That’s real nice Jo, appreciate that. Will definitely consider all these for future. Got a few gear related things lined up this week and then will get some more lessons out. 🙌🏻
Mr Spedding are we gonna get an Achilles last stand transcribed for one guitar lesson like mr page did it live for xmas? 🎄🤘🏻
We might be able to squeeze it in, just in time for Christmas? 🎄😯
Seeing Jimmy play out on the tiles with the black crows. I always thought Jimmy slides on the low E from #F to #A (or A) to #C, #F?
Another weekend, another song! I'll have to put together another band... which means an amp again...
What we shopping for? 😏👀
@@SpedSpedding Would like a tube amp, like a Blackstar. But realistically, might be something like a Boss Katana. Right now I'm in headphones through a Johnson J-Station. Old but sounds good.
Well I've not watched this yet Sped..... Another epic Page riff.... You managed to find the slow blues on his solo album?.. .. Outrider I think it's called,... Happy Christmas dude!! X
Happy Christmas Mark! Yeah I’ve got that album, it’s cool. And yeah it is another epic Page riff. 💪🏻🍿
Most underrated guitar channel
Currently at the gym replying to comments. Let’s hope for double growth. 💪🏻😂
Are you sure that riff has an A# sharp in it? making it Major sounds odd to me? I have always played this song with F# to an A keeping it in the pentatonic formation. I do put a bit of bend on the notes to blur the lines. but I think the riff Always stays in pentatonic. What is everyone else hearing? ( Thumbs up if you hear it in all pentatonic.)
Yeah I am, I actually started learning it with the Open A and was like "why does this feel slightly off?" I realised he's using a F# major arpeggio just like his verse riff in Good Times Bad Times. The riff feels cheeky as opposed to dark so makes sense that he's major over minor.
@@SpedSpedding Hmm... I agree open A does NOT quite sound right......However... Now try the riff with a 5th fret A (not open A) with a slight bend in it.. I think Jimmy is bending the 5th fret (A) which blurs the Major and Pentatonic lines. everything else you play is spot on! Great video thx
You played the Pinch harmonic and it reminded me of the kinky times. Bit like ala mighty boosh.
Eels. Eels. Eels. Eels.
Exactly my son he's five, sings it we are nutters.
Great stuff, miss old blighty.
tks! great!
Glad you liked it!
This kicks ass
Thanks Joshua, appreciate that. 🤘🏻
Modern player in the same league as James Page I find is Dean Deleo from Stone Temple Pilots... Try Plush... A killer display of great interlocking riffs.... Though the version from about 3 years ago with a new vocalist is utterly spellbinding... Try it... Though you may have heard it.... Their first four albums are sublime
Nice one Mark, I have heard a bit but never gone on a deep dive listening with focus. 🙌🏻 Will put some on over the holidays.
