I went to see Chris at the Royal Court Theatre in Liverpool when this came out. I'd never heard of him before but as a guitar player I actually went to see Jimmy Wilsley play because of his part on this track..he was amazing, I was in my early 20s at the time, and to me the star of the show.

Thanks!

The deep ringing of the track always made me feel like it was a big Gretch with a Bigsby.

You speak way too much

Im glad that you mentioned Wild at Heart. I had the soundtrack to the film and listened to this cut from that cassette. Weird but enjoyable movie…great song!

Please,don't talk too much.Just play slowly

are you aware that Keith Richards removed the 6th string for open G songs at some point in the 70s? just kidding

12 foot chain, hey AWSOME video allways wanted to play some stills, well now I am!!! Thank you very much God bless my friend 🧡 again AWSOME video!!! Johnnypotatoes 😅😅✌️✌️👍👍👍 ✌️ peace out.

Brian played it a bit different every time.

Try singing the song. And yeah you do talk way to much. I don't like that Just get to the point. Dude.

Could you do also do the blue moon of kentucky by Setzer?

The way you analyzed the chords and the progression is most helpfull. I am not that familiar with notes so i'm counting on my hearing and i think you have made it easier for people like me. Thank you.

Been waiting for decades to learn this. thank you!

Another great tutorial of James Wilsey's work, more would great and Thank you. Because I’m a big fan Chris Isaak I’ve also gotten into Herschel Yatovitz's pretty unique style and would ask if you could do a tutorial on Pretty Girls Don’t Cry or South of the Border. Again Thx ATB.

I STILL play this timeless rocker.. thanks for pulling it out of the vault. Rock ain't dead yet. Kudos, fret brother! Silvermane Wesley John

Suggestion: before teaching the song, you start the video by playing the song all the way through. You’re assuming the audience already knows what the guitar parts sound like. That’s almost never the case with me. Its like telling me a recipe before I know what we’re cooking. Thanks

I had the honor of meeting Roger McGuinn a few years ago at The Ryman. A friend of mine I grew up with played in Marty Stuart’s Fabulous Superlatives. Marty was playing a charity event and Roger was a guest musician. I had goose bumps during the sound check as Roger hit the opening chords of Turn, Turn, Turn. I looked over at Roger’s wife and she said “It happens to me every time”. Really nice couple.

Wow. Well done. Both playing and tone are spot on.

Over 2 minutes still talkin.damn

The King of Slow. Best James Wilsey song (to my mind) is Insomnia, an instrumental that is inspired by the classic Sleepwalk, as the title suggests.

"Let's all go to the lobby...and get ourselves a treat!" 🎵🎵 😅

When Did Ronnie Montrose come in to. the Picture- before going into his Band with Sammy Hagar /

Outstanding

Great Choice of song. I had that record right when it came out, & Jimmy Wilsey's playing & sound was what made that whole thing tick. "Blue Hotel", from that same record, was used in a network (NBC?) Hollywood Noir detective show, which is where I first heard of those guys. Sad he didn't make it. I was lucky to virtually cross paths with him when he was often on TDPRI years ago.

nice lesson live it up one of his has great guitar parts

yes make more James Wilsey lessons. I like how he uses interval inversions played against with open strings he specializes in that.

My man! Absolutely love this 🙌 James Wilsey doesn't get near the respect he deserves. IMO Chris Isaak's music was never quite as darkly sexy after Wilsey exited the band and sadly passed. Loved his playing on 'Can't Do a Thing' as well, plus his barely acknowledged solo album El Dorado - a real surf / spaghetti noir banger. Really appreciate these tutorials 👍

I get a chuckle seeing Jimmy in that shark suit; remembering back when he was in The Avengers. I can't recall if it was him or the drummer Danny who performed wearing a t-shirt, safety pinned together from two different color t-shirts right down the middle. Brilliant.

Great song, lyrics are utterly daft.

Have you done Young Lust from the Pink Floyd yet ? That would be a great one

A great guitarist who had a sad and tragic personal life . . . RIP James Wilsey.

There's always been this classic along with Greg Lake's equally fabulous 'From the Beginning' that has been favorite lifelong acoustic songs in my life. Very nicely presented and taught here and thank you!!

hey, i was looking for a good tutorial for "sitting on the dock of the bay" by Otis Redding, is that song in your plans for the near future?

Love me some James Wilsey...one of my favs and it's hard to find good breakdowns of his work. Thanks for such a great demonstration Doug! Top notch!

Happy Thanksgiving & THANK-YOU ! Doug. From Les Paul's hometown. YOU ROCK.

They did the True Blood Theme intro. Do that one next.

I wondered who did the Guitar on this record~!!! Thanks Doug!!!

Amazing song and playing. And of course his singing!!

Really, really good good tutorial! Especially like the inclusion of the 2nd guitar part.

My man you talk too much

Thank you. The great Gene Clark. The only thing I want to play before I die is the beginning riff of Swlabr just like Mr. Clapton.

To much talking .

What a great song , rockabilly really , it’s not blues, I have heard it described that way but it’s “rock “abilly”

Does the bass get tuned e e b e too

nice lesson thank you

Donavan may have had something to do with the weird d with f#

Honestly the best tuition for this song on the net. Period. I'm off checking your other songs....🙏🏻 Thanks

@12footchain - Great job as usual - a slight comment if I may. To my ear (via the software program "transcribe" with slow down feature) on the E part of the turn around, on the D string, I hear him play 5th fret (G) to 2nd fret (E) rather than him going to open D string.

Amazing, you made something that sounds so complex; easy! Thanks

Jeez, too much talk.
