Didn't Jimmy use his Telecaster for most of the early stuff?

[@garyhughes9199]

Are you freaking kidding me ?? That was spot on freaking awesome !!! I am 65 an have seen Led Zepplin live, and have never heard anyone sing that song as good as you ! And you sing and play it at the same time. Your the man !!

[@GuitarPilgrim]

Jimmy page also played this song with the black crowes, that lead singer did a fantastic job, he can really sing!

[@raymondrak961]

The guitar part might be easier than the vocal. No one could sing it like Robert Plant.

[@linkappleyard8231]

Man you are just a fantastic teacher. You taste in music is phenomenal. And as always your enthusiasm is 200%. I thoroughly look forward to every video you put out.. thank you thank you thank you

[@rdtasker]

💯 superb teacher

[@fabiangonzalezchiruchi36]

Jimmy Page`s solo on this one is more than amazing...and all the band is incredible as well.Great job pilgrim.

[@raymondrak961]

Jimmy Page was the driving force behind Led Zeppelin and his band mates were extraordinary.

[@CraigHollabaugh]

"Honey, have you seen my slide? GP's rocking his new LP playing JP from LZ!" You're hitting the high note with this lesson. Thanks from Colorado.

[@bluangl9wingman]

I don't play. Messed with it 50 years ago on my own. No teachers or peers to work with. Didn't know anything about anything. If only I would have had you and your videos. Now I like watching and learning how this stuff is done! 👍

[@Dungeon_of_Regret]

start now! You have most of what you need here. It’s good to have an in person teacher too though to correct and guide you, set goals etc.

[@neiladdison5614]

Wow! I haven’t heard you sing a song that suits you as well as this one! Absolute ripper!!👏👏

[@juancarlosgranados4425]

Always great! So much feeling! And I was surprised with your vocals. Long live the blues!

[@stevends3865]

You nailed the masters technique, great lesson and your Les Paul sounds awesome.

[@danabogue1804]

The joy on your face playing a Jimmie Page riff says it all! That's why I'm subscribed!!

[@titocayamanda3177]

I remember putting a request about something of Jimmy Page the first time I saw you having a Les Paul. Thank you so much for this. Awesome! Hope to see some more Zeppelin stuff.

[@dmartyair]

My favorite so far!! Awesome job on vocals as well!!

[@megasuperlexa2]

initially a John Lee Hooker instrumental and yes, Page was recording with Tele on LZ first album. Still a great lesson thanks!

[@bryanmannoia8410]

initially a Earl Hooker song that was actually recorded while his band was warming up for a session. He didn't even know it was recorded until later.

[@michaelmendillo7513]

Outstanding brother!!!! Luv to see more Page stuff in the future, 😎✌✝💕

[@petehaight1139]

Had to drop what I was doing to watch this. Been anticipating a jimmy page video for quite a while. Good stuff.

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

In fact, Page recorded this with a Telecaster, not a Les Paul 😎 anyway, fantastic work on explaining all the details, as usual 👍

[@chrisjames1924]

Standard tele pickups or was it a deluxe with humbuckers?

[@robertoortiz3501]

@@chrisjames1924 standard...

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

@@chrisjames1924 single-coil pickups, no humbuckers... I don't know what other gear or amps he used for their 1st album

[@tenlittleindians]

It still sounds great on a Les Paul with PAF pickups.

[@brianmcdermott281]

I actually heard he recorded it with a Flying V

[@simononeill941]

Oh yeah! I thought this was going to be cliche. Then I heard the opening lick and so glad you chose this of all the "typical" Zep riffs PS Please stop singing high A so well. My god man. You're as good a singer as you are a guitarist. Loving it.

[@jtbkilmartin9110]

Vocals were immense. Guitar playing is always on point. Loved it.!

[@geo.cgeier3435]

That was awesome Thom! Your vocals were a plus and that slide was killer ! More singing!!! Thanx mate!

[@enzoformisano4012]

Very, very fantastics ... congratulation from Italy,

[@uglyawesome]

Guitar Pilgrim is special in the KZbin guitar community for his exceptional music choices. Knew this was the case when you showcased the late, great Jerry Reed!

[@robertobriant2749]

Dude! I’ll be watching more of these

[@Impractical_Engineer]

It took 13 hours for the KZbin algorithm to get this to me. That is too long to wait for this, wonderful playing and attitude.

[@stevelogan1699]

More Jimmy Page. Please! That was fabulous.

[@CrazyHenkie777]

Goeie keuze... excellent choice!!!

[@kenl2861]

I love this guy

[@willardv]

I'd love to see some more slide videos! Something like "Dust My Broom" by Elmore James

[@GuitarPilgrim]

That's a marvellous suggestion, you've got it brother, I will definitely take on Elmore James!

[@DieterKrauss]

@@GuitarPilgrim do "Shake Your Money Maker" but the Paul Butterfield's Band version please! Mike Bloomfield on slide guitar!

[@craigthomson3621]

ZZ Top’s version of Dust my Broom is very good - although I also love Elmore James’ version.

[@tyroneoneill2014]

@@GuitarPilgrim the sky is crying would be a good one for elmore james

[@stingaling]

@@GuitarPilgrim EJ's slide version of "When things go wrong" would be another fantastic option.... :-)

Man, I was playing that same song last night... I love this song. Thanks for the video, that was a killer.

[@ndothager]

OMG I wanna just rock out to this! So good...

[@rabokarabekian409]

I was in my teens when Glen and Roy Clark fired me up to get a guitar and learn hybrid picking. For years, I practiced from sheet music, trying to get the melody, a bass line, and some harmony. I also use my pinky (yes you can - people touch type). Hybrid is very rewarding, eventually. I have lately begun working on classical style tremolo "butterfly" picking too, but may have started that too late in life.

[@gilmichaelbendecio6525]

Just Like the Guitar Pilgrim I subscribed from day one Which really helped me continue playing the guitar. Thanks so much from the Philippines.

[@whitewolf4724]

Love your show you are very talentd

[@anthonymaziero2591]

Man I gotta say sometimes i listen to this song and i dont give it the price that it really deserves. Now, when i listen to it I’ll be all ears for it thanks to u!!

[@paulholmes8885]

Amazing, good stuff. Thanks

[@brocluno01]

Well done again.

[@DieterKrauss]

Dude....you pretty much make a video on every song I want to learn to play. You just did the Glen Campbell video, now THIS Led Zepp song that nobody has ever done a solid lesson as yours. Keep up man, you're doing great. Thanks for the tutorials!

[@johnheart6890]

So good!!!!

[@mikedegrazia]

This is awesome man...

THOM! YEOWZA BABY! Lovin’ your very fresh “GP Series” Can you play…” great call. Just picked up an Epiphone Les Paul ‘59 Custom and it’s astoundingly good, PLEK’d, Bridge work and OMG Monty’s PAF Humbuckers and Loom.

First! Giving this one a go after work! Great singing, by the way, dude.

[@jacksanluka2]

nice performance !

[@bassert1966]

So tasteful. Your are the best on KZbin. #Gibson should send you a real R59.

[@francus7227]

I wonder what Jimmy thought the first time he heard Muddy playing You Shook Me ??? Probably the same thought as the Indians the first time they saw mounted horses... "Look what I could do with that !"

[@normasnockers323]

thats scary good mr pilgrim. many thanks

[@alanhowell3646]

Wow you nailed that

[@ferramirez4570]

One of my Fav Zeppelin songs! In fact Led zeppelin I is my favorite album from them it's rough and bluesy! The Tele and Supro! Era

[@sebastianmarko4273]

Your voice is sounding great!

[@drewbarries]

That was awesome, pretty good singing too! I think it was really Elmore James that Muddy was channeling, I could be wrong but am pretty sure.

Thanks so much for you time worrking.... Saludos desde España

[@markbrown7103]

Yeah that’s for you hard rock and rollers house for me I’m a finger style guitarist I like that stuff but I don’t play a whole lot of it but I got say Jimmy Page is one of my favorite guitars along with a few others but thanks for the video it’s pretty cool have a great day👍🏼🎸🎸😎☮️

[@NytronX]

Jimmy played this song on a Gibson Flying V that was lent to him by someone trying to sell it to him. I wonder where in the world that Flying V is right now.

[@briankellymusician]

Superb! 🤘🤘

[@sirstashalot7441]

Great video! How about Johnny Winter next?

Didn't know GP can sing *that* great. Wow! Led Zeppelin ... was just unbelievable. Extraordinary musicians, including that guy who wasn't Page, Plant or Bonham! (to quote Homer)

[@DonDeering]

That guitar part on Muddy Waters' original was played by Earl Hooker.

[@greg77hot]

Great lesson Pilgrim

[@johnianknox1629]

Thom, love the video as always, some more fantastic slide playing you may not know (as you are half my age) is from one of my favourite 70's band NAZARETH, the guitarist is MANNY CHARLTON and the track is a cover of a RY COODER song "VIGILANTE MAN ", the other track is one of NAZARETH'S own compositions "BAD BAD BOY". Keep up the good work buddy and take care.

Great video Thom & terrific playing! BTW, I looked up and watched a few videos of JP playing this tune & he was indeed using a Gibson Les Paul. Hope that you & your family are doing well...

[@skipneumann1]

Great video! I never was good at playing slide with a pick because I never worked on the muting after each picked note-going to start over again and try it

[@charalampostseronis6500]

Jimmy took the idea from Jeff and made it better like always did

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

better in your opinion... I don't hink that Page made anything better than Beck. The Truth album is as good as the 1st Led Zep in the notes of Beck-Ola Beck wrote something regarding how all the heavy-blues bands were proliferating and how he was quitting the genre. I believe he was implying that he started it all, first with The Yardbirds and then with Truth, but he was too humble to say "I paved this path for you, do it better if you can" I don't think anybody bested those 2 first Beck recordings. And Page ripped off from him everything he could. Even when Beck left The Yardbirds, Page was influenced so much by Beck that I can't even think on Page not being like a different ramification of Beck's style. At least until Led Zep III In that album Page became Page fully

[@charalampostseronis6500]

@@JulioLeonFandinho I didn’t mean he made everything better than Beck. I love the first Jeff Beck group and I think they were equal to Zeppelin. I mean he made everything better in general. In the case of you shook me he made it better than Beck by far

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

@@charalampostseronis6500 again, no It's a different arrangement and idea for the same song... I LOVE the ending of Beck's cover and I miss something like that on Zep's cover

[@pontiypilat7769]

[@MarcBrewer]

Guitar legend Earl Hooker did it first - As an instrumental called Blue Guitar. Willie Dixon bought the rights to the song and recording, wrote some lyrics, and had Muddy dub a vocal on top of Earl’s recording Of course, the Jeff Beck Group covered the song on their first LP too

Great video. I recollect Keith Richards talking about different guitar tunings which he learnt from Ry Cooder, by taking out the top guitar string & using just 5 strings. First heard Keith playing on Beggars Banquet using his new tunings. Please could you do a session on this topic. Love your vids.

[@DougZbikowski]

Fun note: You Shook Me appeared on Led Zeppelin I- Jimmy Page is known for playing a Les Paul, but the electric parts of the first album were all played on a Telecaster…EXCEPT for You Shook Me. Somebody was trying to sell Jimmy a Gibson Flying V at the time, and You Shook Me was recorded on that Flying V. The humbucker pickups on that guitar made the small Supro amp Jimmy used break up very easily, resulting in that songs very heavy and distorted tone.
