Babe I'm Gonna Leave You - Led Zeppelin | Guitar Lesson

[@GaryBook]

The recording with the partial echo is haunting. It felt like the first time I heard it in Junior High and my musical world was altered forever.

[@LeeMcDaidDonegal]

There are certain "Guitaresque" parts that, when you first start learning Guitar, sound so utterly sophisticated and complex that you drive yourself to distraction trying to learn them -- actually, just trying to "hear" them correctly is a difficult enough thing in of itself. Jimmy had a LOT of parts like that, but for me the little twists and turns (and indeed quirks and foibles) of the quasi-classical lines he plays in the background of this tune (especially at the 3:15 mark on the original track) have haunted me for a lifetime. Love it!

Went to a Led Zep concert in '69 at the Pasadena Rose Palace in California. My friends and I were tripping on LSD and this song was just so awesomely otherworldly beautiful -- and seemed to last forever.

Great 12 Footer ~!

[@tariqosman2913]

Most detailed lesson of this song on the internet. Bravo and thanks. Ive always wanted to learn this song and finally i have

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

I agree. I can't wait to tackle this. Really well taught. Good for fingers, heart and soul.

[@arturtor1784]

O thanks! First teacher to show the accords by the way. That what I miss in all other teachers. That was slowing me a lot earlier.

[@STVG71]

Wonderful lesson! I'm going to get going on this today. Thank you!

[@harry8097]

Excellent tutorial! Thanks much!

[@harrytiltmam3075]

Wow only so little views if people want to play all the correct pieces I would recommend this video for sure

A folk song written by Anne Bredon in the late 1950s. Joan Baez recorded a version for her 1962 album ‘Joan Baez in Concert’ and a variety of musicians subsequently adapted it to a variety of styles, including Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page. The folk rock singing group The Association even recorded a version on their live album. Several songwriters have been credited as writers although Anne Bredon usually receives a sole or partial credit.

[@VictoriaPalmer-y8i]

Got it thankyou

[@dandilion62]

Great lesson!!!

[@John-zq3xl]

if you listen very closely to the first 4 notes of the song(Am chord) Jimmy finger picks the 5 string, then quickly strums the 5-4-3 strings as one note so to speak(like 3 in 1 note) or 1/16th note or one 1/8th note depending how you time signature one string pluck, then picks the 3rd string and then picks the 1st string, it happens fast but if you listen that's exactly how it's played and pretty cool, easiest way for me to do that lick with the right hand is pick 5 string up with index finger then strum down with index finger on 5-4-3 strings then picks 3rd string up with index finger then picks 1st string with ring finger, he also has some other variations that are 32nd notes when picking, great song but as we know he only made it better than the original artist's chord progression, I actually hold the F chord notes differently on my fret hand without a bar chord so there is no interruption from the F# bass note to the F base note, it's an awkward fret hand position and takes practice but it works, good job as I learned some of the chord variations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@12footchain]

Yep I know that strum thing you mean, almost sounds like a stumble

[@John-zq3xl]

@@12footchain Thanks for your reply! Jimmy does make a few mutes of strings etc., but I feel the beginning little strum on the 2nd note of the song is another example of Jimmy's brilliance of adding embellishments to a repeating pattern over and over in the song. Just started practicing this song lately after I fell in love with it again recently. Once again, nice work as it will come in handy once I master the basic patterns down first and then work on the alternate chords and picking you display very well! Keep on strummin'.....

[@JonHammastix5643]

That’s what I also thought at first too. However, if you slow the track down to 25 or 50% he is actually not doing this. Of course he plays the open A, no doubt. But then he plays 4-3-4 strings. It’s a triplet for sure but with different timings within that triplet. The first part in the triplet (4-3) are almost played simultaneously, but they are not. There is a tiny gap. It takes a while to get used to the timing but once you get it down, you have an a-ha moment. I can show you via tablature or actually playing it to give you an idea! Not a lot of people pick up on that first chord and in my opinion it provides the foundation for the rest of the song to follow. Regardless, beautiful representation and this is one of the videos that get it right. He actually put time into this one.

[@YlmazDALKIRANscallion]

Thanks.

[@markdesod561]

Tremendous Tutorial!!

[@ThePHCHIEF]

Thank you!

[@myyootube2]

There's a certain feel Jimmy Page gets, and only on the original recording, very hard to duplicate though. As near as I can figure he rushes the 2nd note of each chord in the sequence from Am just a smidge closer to the thumb picked note than it should be, and then he lets the last note of each chord hang just that same smidge longer, to balance out the time. Otherwise all the notes would have the same value. But he plays with the timing brilliantly, and to me it makes it sound more ethnic, gypsy perhaps. Am I crazy? This is what I hear.

[@kensalazar5066]

Intentionally done..the Genius of Mr. Jimmy Page

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

The great drummer Jack DeJohnette once explained how he feels time and I think it's indicative of any great musician: "You know those clothes washing machines where you can see through the front door? To me, the rhythm can be like the clothes falling freely around the drum. But the pulse of the drum is constant. That's how I approach playing."

[@Nobody_Important_Yea]

Nice!

[@trevorgwelch7412]

Could you do Gordon Lightfoot " Talking in Your Sleep " 1972

[@wooferdevlin3571]

Why did you choose 12string /6 to do this? We've seen a 'burst Yammie before. Anyway, the interlude and outro are esp. impressive. I think the pinkie lift is good to release hand tension too. I could swear the Dm w/ open 1st E str., is Croce's Time In A Bottle chord. Great stuff, keeep awn!! 😵

[@12footchain]

My son is now taking guitar at school so the yamaha 6 is now with him.

[@specialkalberta]

Awesome

[@scottwood4955]

Great! What amp were you plugged into for this?

[@12footchain]

No amp for that. That was a mix of a mic in the room and a line out into my focusrite interface. The guitar has a pickup in it

[@gregoran]

The my shop is closed? Is there another place to get the tab? Thank you.

[@12footchain]

It's available for my patreon members.

[@Jah_Rastafari_ORIG]

It's little known that this isn't a Joan Baez song but in fact a song of unrequited love that John Travolta wrote to his co-star on Welcome Back, Kotter. Robert Plant just changed the name from Gabe...

[@gt7150]

Awww... you didnt map out all the verse variations :-(

[@Toxination1]

Anne bredon

[@fredchouille]

Merci !

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

It's obvious Page was just guessing his way through everything he did. Didn't know a damn thing about harmony or voice leading. And all those overdubs to mimmic finger picking. It's too bad Page wasn't a studio musician before Zeppelin. He would have been much better.

[@12footchain]
