[@SeaFishAndSwimming]

Wow! That was a real tutorial! You are an amazing teacher and as it seems also an amazing person. Thank you 🙏❤

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Thanks so much for that beautiful comment! So glad you got something out of this.

[@SeaFishAndSwimming]

@@dannyeddyguitar I got only one question. What is the chorus??

[@SeaFishAndSwimming]

But it's ok, I figured it out 👍

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Ahhhh! Sorry - only just saw this. I apologise - my tutorial focuses more on the technical aspects, somewhat neglecting the actual arrangement, d'oh!

[@SeaFishAndSwimming]

@@dannyeddyguitar It's ok. The tutorial is so good that there is no problem. The chorus is easy to understand by hearing the song, just I wasn't sure if there is another video or something (like part 2). But it's ok

[@adrianlopez353]

Great teacher and historian.

[@markusnordberg8798]

Thanks for this detailed info on this my favorite song to play on guitar. More of these tips on the right details in beautiful songs. Remember when i finally learned this song i thought, now i can die happy!

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Thanks, Mark. So glad you're getting enjoyment out of this!

[@markusnordberg8798]

Yes it brings joy, and now i learned the nice turn at the end of each verse thanks to your video and earlier struggle w blackbird.

[@davidblight6714]

Fantastic job Danny. One of my favourite Tom ballads. Thank you. I’m just a harmonica guy but your knowledge and expertise is fascinating.

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Thanks heaps David! "Just a harmonica guy" says Dave. Coolest instrument ever. Wails like a wild tempest. Fits on your pocket!

[@erikraude146]

Thank you for this video. "Closing time" is my favourite Tom Waits's album and it's a pity he decided to stop performing it not long after its release. I read an old interview about this fact - interview that I've never managed to find again - where he said that he doesn't really like that much anymore: he said something like "It was my fist album and those songs where soaked with a sense of ..." but I don't remember what he was talking about. Anyway, this song is a gem.

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Wow, I didn't know that. I suppose many artists move on quite a lot from their first release. But I think it's a beautiful album!

[@erikraude146]

@@dannyeddyguitar I'm sorry I can't be more precise but I tried in every way to remember the missing part of the interview without result.

[@Steph-od9ck]

Wonderful tutorial! Thank you for taking the time to illustrate everything so well!

[@dannyeddyguitar]

You are so welcome, Steph!

[@pantano207]

How the hell do you know so much about Tom Waits? I loved the video about the guitarists who've worked with Tom, this is great too, please do as many of these as you like, good on you

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Thank you Alex. I have learned SO much about Tom from the comments on these vids!

Thanks MM, I appreciate that!

[@mauricegale6660]

Really sweet and well researched ! Well done buddy

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Thanks kindly, Maurice!

[@KenGlasser]

This is such a wonderful, great, helpful video. I loved the details on what else was going on in the song, not just what Tom was playing. And the background on those other musicians. Thank you so much for giving me the details on how to play the song. This is one of those songs that seems pretty simple (the good old I, IV, V as you say) but there are a lot of subtleties in Tom's playing that are not readily apparent and that I doubt I would have been able to get on my own. So thank you for this. It's much appreciated. P.S. The first verse of this song showed up in the new movie "Flora and Son" on Apple TV which is where I thought to try and learn it.

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Thank you so kindly, Ken! Glad you are able to get something out of this vid - And thanks also for the generous tip!

[@mraaronwatson]

Thank you so much!

[@dannyeddyguitar]

You're so very welcome!

This is the first song I learnt to play and sing at the same time. Now I can finally learn to play it properly 😂

What about "Whistle Down the Wind" tutorial?

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Under consideration. ;)

[@raindogred]

best examples of Toms early finger picking were those albums "Tom Waits early years vol 1 and 2"..just bare bones demos done before his first album i believe..the demo version of Ol55 is far superior than what was on his first album..their amongst his best i reckon. I hope that i don't fall etc..is better on the demo

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Great tip! I'll definitely be going back to those demos for another listen.

[@declankenny5290]

Lovely stuff, though I’m just listening to the original and it seems to be in the key of D.

[@dannyeddyguitar]

Thanks. I just checked and the album version is definitely in C - C, F, G7...

[@declankenny5290]

@@dannyeddyguitar Check out kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6Wvh4t4psukeLs where it's in D. Funny one. I guess it wouldn't be the first time an artist changed the key of a song, post-recording. Anyway, nothing a capo can't fix ;-) Your videos are excellent. Cheers.

[@dannyeddyguitar]

@@declankenny5290 Ahh yes, that's an early demo I believe. Those 'Early Years' volumes contains recordings from before he made Closing Time. But you're spot on - that's in D!
