No, that song isn't in the 5. Guess again.

Thanks a lot, I agree - he was one of a kind!

Thanks! Good to see you!

Thanks Sam! It's my pleasure.

Thanks! And happy February to you as well!

I'll have to check that out!

Good question. G is the b7 chord. G# is the 7th of A. So the b7 chord in A is G.

Great!

Thanks!

Thanks a lot, and happy February to you as well!

Thanks

I think you mean the 6th string. I'm not playing the 6th string, so it doesn't matter. I prefer to be able to play my guitar for other things as well. Also, Keith, a great rhythm player, rarely plays all the strings at once. It's a common problem with many rock players who commonly play barre chords. They take up too much space. Listen to how little space Keith is taking up on Gimme Shelter to see what I mean. He has to leave a bunch of space in there, so he's usually playing 1 or 2 notes. Once in a while he plays 4. One last thing is that you usually don't need to tune the E string(s) to D. The 6th isn't played and the 1st isn't usually necessary to get that Stones sound. (You need the 5th in the bass for his chords, so the A-string needs to go to G.) That way it's very fast to re-tune AND you can solo using the D, G, B, and E strings, which is not very limiting.

@@MarkZabel Or: you can loosen the low E string a little, then just lift it out of the nut and let it lay against the neck of the guitar. Instant 5-string sound. When you’re finished, lift it back in and retune, and you’re back in 6-strings territory. Been doing that for years.

@@HoneyTone-TheSearchContinues That's reasonable, and a good option! I don't think I'll change what I'm doing though. It's also a 5-string sound. (Though again, I rarely play more than 3 or 4 at one time - even with 6 strings.)

That's the way!

LOL, sounds like you're on the right track. Keep it up!

The wife left !! The dog died more time to practice though...

You simply click it on.

That grown ass man has also made more money then you have ever touched in your life without playing simple bar chords

No worries brother. Pros rarely play barre chords. They're not a good sound.

Barre chords aren't beginner friendly, but they're great tools. Learning your triads can help replicate the sound of a barre chord while also freeing your fingers.

Once you get the hang of forming the shape chord using the 3 fingers (other than your index finger) of your fretting hand, Barre chords will become second nature. Don't give up.

@@ronaldviens7862 It's okay to be able to play them ... just try to avoid playing them in most situations. They can take up way too much space in the mix and walk all over the bass, keyboard and singer. One of the great things about Keith's playing is that he's usually playing 4 or fewer strings.

It's a chord progression. In the key of A it's A, F#m, D, E. In the key of C it's C, Am, F, G.

Thanks!

Was that before or after he played it? (It was improvised, so he knew what it would sound like. But how?)

Page, Clapton, Hendrix ... and before that B.B., Albert, Freddie, Buddy. That's how it's supposed to be with the blues. Pass it on, but change it.

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!

You are very welcome

Go for it!

Thanks!

Um, that's the point for all the players who think 1) the pentatonic scale is everything and 2) scales are everything.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Hi Sandy. I'm not in Detroit. (Grew up there.)
