Someone just asked me how to play down at the doctors so I forwarded your lesson a good accurate description nice one , Phil Mitchell (bass guitar Dr.Feelgood)

[@listairgin]

One of Gypie Mayo’s jewels RIP 🌌🌠. Thanks for breaking it down and doing the demo. 😉👍🏻

[@priceri]

Peace & love & respect but skipping around too fast then saying it's quite straightforward. Yeah then it's easy when you know how. Rewinded twice as many times as Marty.

[@revolver330]

One of my favourite solos of all time and for ages I've been failing miserably to work it out, so thanks for doing this. I'm amazed that someone has given it a thumbs down! Cheers.

[@thejaseguitar]

You're welcome :)

[@mikesco1959]

Currently rocking to Gudbye to Jane following your lesson. Will have a go at this one next. Cheers for the excellent lessons.

[@googleman9425]

Very good Jason. Captures the raw sound of the Feelgoods. Doesn't even need to be exactly the same, if one gets the feeling right

[@paulcoleman3081]

"...you don't have to get the pitch exact because it's quite rock 'n' roll..." I would subscribe to you on that alone, but this is a really cool lesson too. Thanks.

[@watfordkev]

Love your lessons Sir. Great material choices, really well detailed and explained, no flying logos and other unnecessary “blah blah”! Thank you!

[@thejaseguitar]

You're welcome Kevin :)

[@tonyn9858]

hey Jason I went to see dr feelgood at Leicester demontfort hall in Leicester. 1976 the album was malpractice one of the best nights I ever had. I can tell I can tell I can tell you don't love me no more. the live show was better than the record. I'm glad I was there . t hanks for the lessons tony

[@thejaseguitar]

Great band!

[@1980kikote]

Grandísimo tutorial muchas gracias

[@w1llsways]

Brilliant one of my all time favourites and you've figured it out !

[@themuzzmurray]

This is a great video. ALL you need to know about playing pub rock blues is here. Canvey Island, Baby. Excellent tone too!

[@quiescence3980]

Good lesson nice and clear !

[@bmosley4444]

thank you, I have been having so much fun learning Wilko style, please help with Chequebook and Cant Find Rhe Lady.

[@martyno4150]

Jason, thanks so much for this one. Much appreciated.

[@thejaseguitar]

You're welcome :)

[@robs4006]

Thanks for the reply, just going through it now for about the 20th time 👍

[@percythrower9193]

I chuckled at your final comment here. Lovely stuff! Crystal clear explanation of how to (attempt, in my case) play this belter of a tune. Just about nailed Milk & Alcohol past day or 2 so I'll have a go at this now. Turns out these lockdowns can be useful for some things! Big thanks for this - incredibly helpful. I may be your latest subscriber. Cheers and good health. PT

[@thejaseguitar]

Thanks Percy :)

[@arthurnawrath6701]

Brilliant!

[@swordfish211]

Excellent solo Jason and the only one for Down at the Doctors on KZbin. My only gripe is that I do not know all the notes on the fretboard and so I had to work out the string and fret as you said them. Something like B string 3rd fret etc would have been easier for me but maybe it wasn't a problem for others. Thank you very much anyway.

[@thejaseguitar]

Thanks, I usually do give the string and note too, but sometimes forget. However learning the notes is definitely worthwhile so by doing that you've increased your musical knowledge :)

[@SWINGCHARIOT24]

super lesson

[@martynrandall7652]

Nice job great song.

[@larsrook]

great job, favorite band of all time Wilko is my Hero, but Gypie sounded awesome , please more lesson on dr feelgood please

[@jean-louisba3156]

good job have you the tabs? thanks

[@lji0041]

Thank you!!

[@TheVatonaught]

Thanks...I mean it...I'm not kiddin' I can get a piece of this for the first time.

[@robs4006]

This is great thanks Jason, have you got a Tab for this?

[@thejaseguitar]

Thanks Robert. I'm afraid I don't have any tabs.

[@colincampbell4261]

What about the 8 bars of piano?

[@martyno4150]

Jason I have a couple of suggestions that you just can't get guitar tab or lesson. Baby Baby by the Vibrators, who were the backing band for Chris Spedding of Motor Bikin'' fame, another great song. Teenage Depression by Eddie & the Hot Rods or anything from the Live at the Marquee EP (the missing link between Pub Rock and Punk Rock). Hope you can help if you get the time. Is there a way of rewarding you for all the time spent? Thanks so much for all the great lessons.

[@thejaseguitar]

Thanks Martyn, I'll add then to my list :)

[@andyedwards4162]

from memory,the "eight bars of piano"didn't happen because the piano player didn't turn up!, according to the NME,Danny Baker (yes,that Danny Baker)would use the phrase"a load of 8 bars of piano"for when something didn't happen,haha.

[@thejaseguitar]

Ha! :)

[@pit2ryan3]

Andy Edwards - The piano had actually been recorded but eventually erased during the final mix...

[@pit2ryan3]

Andy Edwards - From the book "Lee Brilleaux - Rock'n'Roll Gentleman": "Richard (Gottehrer, the producer), God bless him, he's not the world's greatest piano player, right? He said, "I'm going to put some piano on it, man!" OK... so I shouted out "Eight bars of piano" to give some atmosphere and he was going to dub some piano afterwards. He did dub it on. We mixed it out!"

[@andyedwards4162]

If I didn't request this(can't remember!),I should have done,great stuff as always Jason.

[@thejaseguitar]

It wasn't you but glad you like it :)

[@Zankitophat]

when Dr Feelgood play this now it sounds nothing like the original... maybe you should give them a guitar lesson :-)

[@isadorable9898]

Maybe because what you call "Dr Feelgood" has nothing to do with the original band with Lee Brilleau and Wilko Johnson. I don't even unhderstand how they get the right to play as Dr Feelgood !!!

[@steveritt]

@@isadorable9898 The manager owns the band name

[@steveritt]

Let us not forget Mickey Jupp!

[@mr.stevejones1947]

I've been waiting since 1979 for this. Only recently did I manage to nail it accurately thanks to this recent playthrough - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYm3oohqbsyUfJY. You break down the notes which makes it so much easier. Many thanks. Just a couple of suggestions from the same era - Ian Dury, Sex and Drugs and Rock'n'Roll or Sweet Gene Vincent. Or even both. I love your channel and your uploads are much appreciated.

[@antoniovargas9680]

Estoy OK

[@User58747]

Great playing! How about Milk and Alcohol?

[@martyno4150]

How does anyone give a no like to your videos? I don't get it.

[@thejaseguitar]

Martyn Ockwell you can't please everyone:)

[@irishwanderer4206]

@@thejaseguitar its all the notes very confusing haha

[@aellams4920]

SLOW DOWN!!!!

[@christianwinkler8210]

the first two chords are too fast to see ..!?

[@strikeback2574]

No good it’s not the real riff😬

[@stump3116]

Really good lessons but keep your bloody fingers in one place when you not playing lol

[@thejaseguitar]

I've had to try and learn to stop doing that! It's because when playing live I would wave my arms about Pete Townsend style to try and impress the audience :)

[@stump3116]

@@thejaseguitar lol yeah all good mate learnt a lot from you especially stranglers stuff thanks mate

[@garybrowning8382]

Please slow down, keep your hands still, and remember that people don't learn the songs in real time thanks

[@isadorable9898]

Hey buddy. If you want to teach people, stop moving your left hand all the time between 2 chords, because there's no way to understand were you put your fingers...Please...
