BEGINNERS: Strum along with Jimi Hendrix's "Hey Joe" in MINUTES! [Guitar Lesson]

[@sammckelvey]

Jimi is the reason I bought a guitar, but Ryan is the reason I didn’t burn it immediately and kept at it. This video warms my soul

[@RyanLendt]

Salutations, Joe

[@rift0110]

dude you are seriously my favorite guitar teacher on this site, you make things so easy to understand and digest - and you're super entertaining to watch. keep it up!!

[@RyanLendt]

hey thanks rich :)

[@anthonysullivan2902]

Wowsers u seriously are without a doubt the best teacher period. 98% of my arsenal is from watching u so thank you sir for all you do

[@RyanLendt]

it's an honor anthony :)

[@bweissvt]

Hi Ryan: Your videos are awesome. I've watched a bunch of channels - Marty, Justin, Shut Up and Play - just to name a few - and you, my friend, are the BEST! You've got the perfect combination of: 1. achievable (yet impressive) guitar parts 2. great blend of songs 3. entertainment (you really are funny) I get the impression that you are a pretty good singer. If you were to throw some singing instruction into the mix, you would have a niche that no one else could touch. Thanks for considering. Ben

[@RyanLendt]

why thank you for all that kindness Dorset :) I am a singer, yes, but I have no experience in teaching people how to sing - and probably not in the cards for this lifetime :)

[@dewsic1]

As someone who indeed thought it would be quite daunting to play this song for some time now, I appreciate this one!

[@RyanLendt]

woot! get it!

[@igavehimadollar3354]

i love the remastered clip of jimi playing this live on youtube dude was so cool

[@RyanLendt]

yep. the guitar looks like it's part of his body.

[@IrishRooster86]

Thank you so much for this bro!! Such an iconic jam. Peace out and rock on!!

[@RyanLendt]

peace!

[@tjbauer991]

[@frederickshaw1835]

Keep up the good work, your simple method and explanations are brilliant for both beginners and players alike. Love the campfire versions, keep up the good work.

[@RyanLendt]

thanks fred!

[@rosskegler2433]

Awesome lesson. To make it 2 and 3/4 signature moves. After the intro riff - an e chord . Then slide this mighty E chord to the 4th fret. Then a quick stop at 3 and then back to the regular E chord.

[@RyanLendt]

that is within your rights :)

[@markc8302]

This lesson is the ticket. Thanks,man

[@davidroth7138]

Well done!

[@KevinLamb]

That was fun, and helpful! Keep'em coming.

[@RyanLendt]

thanks my dude!

[@petercrick3958]

Last time I was camping one of my enemies stole my sleeping bag…I’ll not rest until I’ve found them! Thanks Ryan, fantastic as ever 👍

[@RyanLendt]

[@RyanLendt]

it's on my mind - thanks for the vote :)

[@wardphillips2104]

For the E-C-G-D-A progression, do Barre chords work as well as open chords? Thabks!

[@RyanLendt]

yessir

Hey Ryan! Please tell Joe, Jimmy, and Billy they've got a super hit song

[@fenderfox5080]

You da man Ryan😁👊🤘

[@RyanLendt]

cheers fox

[@feliperosa2322]

Still great

[@davidmorgan8446]

Thanks a lot, Ryan! Now my old lady is about to shoot me for spending two hours exploring this song instead of doing some chores around the house. Seriously though, what a fun and surprisingly accessible song. I spent some time listening to the recording on this instead of just trusting my (faulty) memory and it's fun to try to add additional bits to it.

[@RyanLendt]

just tell her playing guitar calms your nerves, which will make you live longer and ultimately be able to do more chores

[@johnshive5548]

I like this guy.

[@RyanLendt]

:)

[@TC3333]

Another great video, thanks! Any particular reason you play a Taylor?

[@RyanLendt]

because Stone Gossard plays Taylors. I have one martin on my list, and then two will be enough for me in the acoustic guitar department, but that won't be any time soon.

[@TC3333]

@@RyanLendt Well, that's a damn good reason. I'm on a journey to buy my first Martin, have always liked the tone of your Taylor. It's decided...both.

[@gabrielhenning1620]

Excellent lesson as always, now I can counter my enemies haha

[@RyanLendt]

go forth and vanguish!

[@beranmuden6155]

I didn't want to know this, but great lesson nonetheless(on)!!

[@RyanLendt]

hehe

[@pwrbrkr38]

Top notch... and who can't use "extra open E string time"...?

[@RyanLendt]

no honey I wasn't at the bar with the guys, i was having open E string time...

[@jackhaugh]

Sometimes I’ll hit the “Hendrix chord” and morph the song into Purple Haze at that point which really fucks with peoples heads if they’ve had a few libations or even something stronger…

[@RyanLendt]

yum

[@kvstrickland]

Yield backdrop ❤

[@RyanLendt]

[@giangnamk]

I like that bell :))

You skipped a bunch of stuff, but yeah it still sounds pretty cool. My favorite song of all time!

[@RyanLendt]

3 hour video to come ;)

[@jameslong4929]

See that guy with the comment was one of the enemies that we'll be destroying if they dare enter our campfire. I'm now ready for them. 🤟💪

hehe. there's always someone!

Uh, look! I‘m spinning, I‘m spinning!

hola chris

How very River of Deceit-y that one bit is :)

[@RyanLendt]

add it to the dictionary!

[@ImNotOld_ImVintage]

Fun lesson! but... Chipotle has mexican food? I have been to Mexico and the food there is great. However the "food" from Chipotle gave me the runs..

[@methodicalmadness1192]

The water in Mexico gave me explosive diarrhea :/

[@RyanLendt]

you have to eat chipotle, which gives you IMplosive diarrhea, to counteract the effects

[@tenkarabadger5244]

"take that, enemies!"

[@patprime7320]

I do love a mortal enemy pot luck

[@RyanLendt]

it's the only way. the trick is to back them into the cul de sac

[@paulthompson2072]

Much much easier your way lol that will do ty

[@RyanLendt]

:)

[@mcburnski]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHauY3h6pt2jmbs Apparently this is the original!

[@RyanLendt]

unreal - best comment section on any video in the world. and only 83k views. proof of my theory: nobody cares. thank you Martin for taking the time!

[@mcburnski]

@@RyanLendt i followed your link to the "original" and went down a short youtube rabbit hole. The woman who claims she wrote the song is still angry after all these years. Thats a wee shame. Anyway, loved the lesson and can't wait for your more indepth version......

[@anthonyreed1941]

Maybe a Alice In Chains - Sea of Sorrow lessons next? 😮

[@Severinate]

That link, pretty sure, is a cover of the Hendrix version, maybe by Billy Roberts, but it clearly has a ton of Hendrix-ism's. 'Hey Joe' is an age old folk song, no one knows who actually wrote it and it's usually credited as 'traditional' on records. Billy Roberts is widely regarded as the first to record it in 1961. His version is here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZ7VeIKOf7KEoJI

[@RyanLendt]

check out martin burn's comment here as well - seems like there's some info to sift through!

[@RyanLendt]

[@scottpaules7495]

Fun fact: The chord progression follows the circle of fifths! C-G-D-A-E

Hey Joe

[@mollymaggieandmemollymaggi5189]

11/13/22. Your acoustic sound for “Hey Joe” sounds great! You seem to be playing with extra emotion, like you’re upset, but that extra fire in your belly made you sound better, I think. Maybe you should think about playing this when you sing live? So you’re insinuating Jimi Hendrix stole his “Jimi Hendrix chord” from Billy Roberts?” ... The other day, you put out a video saying all are welcome to watch you except for one person, and he/she knows who he/she is. Is it a Marty fan again or someone else? What is this person doing that bothers you? Take care, Ryan.

[@benidictnelbert]

You are that person.

[@RyanLendt]

as per the norm, I was spouting nonsense with that comment

[@andrewharvey2161]

Carlisle… ? Seriously 😂

[@RyanLendt]

;)

[@flynn2324]

Ah yes jimi is great :)

[@RyanLendt]

jimi for president!

[@chrisbennett814]

please dont watch how jimi played it. lol. its slightly different, to say the least.

[@markknopflerisnot]

Could you possibly play through the whole piece prior to breaking it down...give it some context

[@keithrourke8227]

Thanks!

[@RyanLendt]

aw thanks pal
