What tuning is this?

Bobby and Sonny!

God I love being taught by one of my 60's heroes John Sebastian.....

Gonzalez Gary White Amy Lewis Jennifer

so where is the teaches part?

Oh that’s so pretty. Wish I had written it.

Its amazing to watch a great player tell you what NOT to do then see another great player doing EXACTLY what the other great player told you NOT to do. Speaking of melody David Griers arrangements sound NOTHING like the song--If the video weren't titled I would think he was making up a new song as he went along

"Yikes" Jorma, From the very first time I brought home the first Hot Tuna album soon after its release, you've influenced how I interact with my guitars. You made finger-picking cool again. Thank you.

I dint like anybody

GBO!!

Greatest song ever written

He's right and wrong at the same time. Strictly speaking, you don't *have to* but it's better for society if you are.

That’s what uncompromising class looks like.

Ralph was Original snd and his Music still remains unmatched !!!!

I first heard this by the Yardbirds as a pasty white musically naive teen. been working backwards ever since.

He is one of the best I ever heard. 4 foundation flatpickers in no order. Norman, Tony, Doc and Clarence. Everyone learned to master their craft my listening to and patterning themselves after one of these guy or parts from each.

Buster Poindexter laying it down like the Wolf.

Norman Blake is the most down home guitar picker ever.

Gets ya

That doesn't really need "teaching". It needs HOURS and HOURS (and hours!) of practice.

One of my heroes.

She is the only female player I've ever heard that can play this song with authority, and, as she says in the beginning, with the funk, force, and groove the song needs. There's nothing dainty or mannered about the way she plays it-she can hold her own with any male player.

Cool

Wow!

Jorma's finger picking on this song will always put me in that special place in time with rivers of memories taking you back to the first time listening in awe 🎸🎵🎵🎵

In my head doing Jacks slipping sliding rumbling base lines.🍄

Music has a way of taking us right back to those experiences -- and this one was magical. Early marriage, LSD, and trying our best. Thanks for the reprise.

Okay, but what is that song in the intro.

Wonderful song.

We were truly blessed to have had The Osborne Brothers in the bluegrass music genre. Sonny and Bobby rest in peace.

Jorma.... unbelievable artist.....Hot Tuna concerts live on in my thoughts......🌄🌄🌄🌄🌄🌻🌻🌻🌻love it🪻🪻chk out jorma Fur Peace Ranch.....very cool..⚡⚡🌞🌞🌞🌞🦝🦊🐸🦓🐻

I have his VHS Tape from Homespun when it came out in the 90’s. It’s like brand new. He is outstanding. If you didn’t know he tuned down it would drive you crazy trying to do that.His double stops are so different than others you know exactly who it is in 2 seconds when he starts without seeing him and yes he is so underrated

I'M SHOCKED THAT'S DAVID JOHNSEN, AND PUT HUBERT SUMLIN IN THE HOF, ALREADY, IT'S A DISGRACE HE'S NOT ALREADY IN THERE FOR 30 YRS

Please sing too!

But this song it sounds different to real song, how can I get this song? I like this more than the Spotify song

Is there a version of him playing this, you know on a good guitar in high quality, without the lesson? Just the tune? Not the original with the band, this sounds better. Cheers.

I love Earl and JD. I respect Bela. But Ralph is my all time favorite banjo player. His sound moves me. It just sounds more raw and closer to the mountains than the concert hall. And oh my goodness, his singing..just phenomenal!

Ray..just incredible telecaster guitar player..great rhythm.

Thanks for mentioning is in open G at the end of the video xD

"Slow it down for the folks" - plays the exact same speed lol

That singer kills man!!!

Thanks for the lesson made get back into my guitar 🎸

This guy is a great teacher

This one's like Alices restaurant by Arlo Guthrie

Darling, you are playing a song called Flying South by Jerry Reed. Well you are playing half of it. Chet plays the other part. I accidentally rewrote a song of his myself, so I know from where I speak. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnzYhISArZupm7ssi=cxaGsO-f03M3YGTs I believe you will find it very familiar. And wait until you come across all the harmonics. You will love it.

He plays the song differently here from the way it's played in the studio version. Please listen to this video and the original back to back. Why did he do this?

Go Vols!!!!

I love this man!! 🧡
