This and Can 't You Hear Me Knocking are one of the two best guitar intros in rock!!

[@78fty95]

Makes sense bc it’s the same guitar player haha. Quite sure you knew that tho. Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards are the best complimenting players to one another in rock and roll history. Their open tuning licks shaped the 60’s and 70’s. I’m only 33 btw, but my taste in music obviously doesn’t match that lol

[@rogermartin7116]

“Back when Rod Stewart was who he was supposed to be.” Truth. Thanks for the terrific lesson - or thanks for another terrific lesson. I saw The Faces farewell tour in Detroit. One of the all-star bands of rock and roll history.

[@a.c.4732]

no matter how old we get , we lived this stuff when you know - you know

[@bigstick421]

Was there also. Valentines Day,1975

[@sumika80]

Outstanding appreciation of Ronnie's playing with Faces.

[@Deteroblix]

I just can't understand how you got 21 dislikes???? What's there to dislike? Your manner of teaching and your attention to detail is amazing. One of the best on youtube. Thank you for helping us.

[@jdenney666]

21 dislikes from 21 dipshits

[@TUSK1157]

Some people are just moronic. I've seen dislikes back in the day for people doing great acts of kindness. Sometimes there is just no reasoning behind their actions.

[@69Curtdog]

Ron Wood....Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page spamming the Dislike button...lol

[@CPDLee]

I’ve watched the artist who actually wrote the music showing how to do it and morons will do that. They contribute nothing they are miserable carbon deposits. Great job on all the music done here we are soooo fortunate to have you share this, thank you.

[@steveblease]

There's dislikes for the original guitarist showing how to play Last train to Clarksville correctly. People are just dense in the head.

[@NGGlynn]

"One of the greatest rock song ever." Sir, you are correct. And one of the greatest rock bands ever.

[@PoppysGuitar]

Ron Wood is the feel and nothing but the feel and only someone with the ear that you have could get all these parts. Jesus great job!

[@gordonspeirs8179]

Right, great lessons, and clearly the most accurate on the web. Presented in a very teachable way.

[@willnewcomer2125]

Ronnie’s the all time goat. Hands down my favorite player.

[@tshouse2782]

Even the tone is spot on

[@Wade6242]

I was fortunate to see Rod with the Faces 3 times back in the day.

[@allocke9446]

They were great!!!

[@juana1483]

Me too in San Diego 3 or 4 times!!! Suberb concerts!!!

[@alanshepherd4304]

One of my absolute all time favourite rock songs!!😁😁🇬🇧

[@danielyanez7146]

I was looking for some hints to approach “stay with me” playing or just struming Now I don’t think I could find anything better that this real lesson I can’t show nothing else Than a real deep and huge respect This is simple but deep and strong it is solid! Thank you much Sir!

[@bkkfarang4749]

This was when The Faces were at their peak and were kicking ass!

[@chrisst8922]

Solid rhythm playing is an art in itself.

[@andrewbrown6381]

A superb and totally underrated riff. Thanks a lot for the lesson. Really really good teaching and expertly played. Will try it on a Strat rather than the Les Paul.

[@billsstudio2528]

I played this in a cover band many times, got it mostly right, but you show me that having a correct clean rhythm means everything. Great job as always!

[@coaltrain4423]

It's amazing to me how you can remember every dang note on all these songs by various artists,and they created them,but they can't play them the same twice,but you nail them time after time.I'm not cutting them down,I'm just in awe how you can be so consistent in your delivery.I love these lessons,I know you worked hard to accomplish this level of retention and muscle memory,but it just seems to come so easy for you and hang there.Thanks.

[@tommyhaynes9157]

My favorite guitar lead in . Ron wasn't a soloist in the way Beck or Clapton was but came up with the best chordal type fills. Richards or Johnny Marr were great at that too

[@tallmn1957]

Man, this is good. I FINALLY get to see how it's truly played. I've played it with the E on the 4th fret and of course the 7th fret but never open tuning. I feel foolish. Excellent lesson. I never noticed it before but in the outro I hear the opening chords of Pool Hall Richard.

[@stonesfan413]

what a "mean" riff that is.perfect lesson Thanks

[@stevekastenbaum6678]

Thank you. This was very helpful. You captured all the little nuances in one of Ronnie Wood's greatest recordings. Much appreciated.

[@kermit80526]

I have no idea how you NAIL the tone on every song!?!?! You are mesmerizing to watch.

[@tam_ryan1036]

Agreed! One of the best rock n roll songs ever made. Such a tight band and that lovely change to half time feel! And yes, pre-disco Rod! When he could really rock out and didn't care if anyone thought he was sexy. Great tutorial and playing. Thanks.

[@999gremlins]

My favorite band, my favorite song and the best guitar teacher on the web. I let out an audible wooo hoo when I opened my email. As usual, you nailed it. Two guitars? No wonder I never quite "got it". Few bands could equal the faces playing live. It was brilliant drunken chaos. Speaking of Ian Mclagan- search KZbin for his "Never say Never" video. Listen to the lyrics, if that doesn't bring a tear to your eyes nothing will. Simplest guitar ever in that song (besides Smoke on the Water of course) but it's just perfect. Time to sneak down the cellar and break out the Les Paul...I know how my weekend will be spent. Thank you...Thank you....Thank you. Time to donate.

[@zippy61]

I love you man! This came at the perfect time I have be starting to play this and you sir de mistified the fills and as a bonus even show the slide! A donation is coming your way! Guys he is always spot on, best teacher on you tube! SEND A DONATION IF YOU CAN we gotta support this man efforts! Thanks again for the great work..

[@imannonymous7707]

zippy61 thanks for donating to this channel if i was rich i would too......he deserves it

[@ebbanjenkins5960]

Gotta say thanks 110%..easily one of best riffs EVER..I'm only playing guitar a year have experimented a lot with open G and Keefs style but this in Open E makes me feel like a bloody rock God even though I'm real beginner what an awesome tone first time I've played something at 12th fret and beyond and not sounded like a screaming cat in a washing drier

[@ThePosingPensioner111]

You are the real deal Fella 🎸 A seriously good player who gives superb lessons ❗️Keep on Rockin’ & Stay Safe 🙏🏻🤘🏻😎

[@PurpleWhirple]

Brilliant lesson, thank you. Love this song and never could quite work out what goes on at the beginning until you explained it.

[@PISSEDOFF-MADABOUTIT60]

I know I did request it from you because I thought you were the man who could bring authenticity to it. And I hope it was my request this song is so deep in my life that rod was god in are home. By the sound of it you struck GOLD. BELIEVE ME WHEN FRANK S. IS PLAYED DAY IN AND OUT ROD WAS A RELIEF.

[@5jkimmels]

What a GREAT lesson! It's one thing to be able to PLAY the song, but another to TEACH it. You maintain a great pace! Slow enough to see enough details, but not dragged out. Masterful teaching! Thanks!!!

[@cerclesvicieux]

Completely agree with you about Stewart. He was in his prime when he was fronting The Faces. Love everything by these guys. Great choice for a lesson.

[@79943]

Many years ago (pre internet) when I started learning guitar I just used chord charts from books. For the normal E shaped bar chord I didn't know I was supposed to bar the entire fret with one finger so I hooked my thumb over the top to grab the 6h string. Hendrix also did that. Worst thing I did tho was I reversed my pinky and ring finger from what I should have done and I put my pinky on top (the 5th string). I eventually learned how to bar with my index finger but I have never undone the reversal of the ring and pinky fingers. BTW I have small hands but reaching over the top was never and issue for me. You just have to rotate your wrist above center line of the neck. Anyhow, great lesson again. You remain the top of the food chain when it comes to these lessons. You set the bench mark.

[@badkatrising3918]

By far my favorite teacher on the tubes. Thanks. Now more lessons!!!!! Lol

[@piano40s]

You nailed it for me when you said one of the classic intros ever, I have always felt that too, when I am driving along and this song comes on the digital do da thing I turn the volume up to 11 and then speak to digital thing to play again and again and again, only a few songs I do that too and this is one of them, another is Hawkwind Silver Machine check that one out, but be careful you will be doing 100MPH in no time, back in the day I got a lift home ( i had missed the last bus ) from Leeds city centre to home about 5 miles to walk, by the Faces tour bus they saw me walking along (long hair type then) stopped and just about took me to my ( parents ) front door, a guy I guess was a roady gave me a bottle of beer and talked to me, I could see the band at the back of the bus but never got to speak to them. now 40 years later I think I will put one of my Guitars into open E and try this out for myself, thanks for the Vid it will make it much easier.

[@piano40s]

Just worked it out on my fingers more like 50 years ago, I am getting old....

[@sharmitoboylos7585]

very nice tutorial on yes one of the greatest rock songs ever

[@ashworthwiltshire7446]

Thank was yet another great instructional video. Thank you.

[@PISSEDOFF-MADABOUTIT60]

Yo this song is sooo out there and you are right that is one of the greatest songs of all time and just as fresh I finally got that found the sound on my amp and have been killing it after watching you.

[@vincentrandazzo8388]

Nice work. Easy to understand.

[@benjacoel1115]

Thank you you are exellent at teaching guitar

[@davidlister4465]

Fantastic. Many thanks. Wish someone had shown me how to do this 40 years ago.

[@donheller231]

Great break down of a true rock song. Done correctly ! Thank you !

[@bryanmckenzie1089]

I just love watching your videos! You have to be one of the most accurate players in the world.

[@kldeich]

Really great lesson on this song! Thanks a ton!

[@shader26]

Back again. This is an excellent tutorial, totally perfect. As a guitarist playing since the seventies, and used to playing note for note and figuring out songs, this is a still totally excellent. Will just mention, I’m struggling with the very first part of the intro, when you have the first three notes, and then hit the low E twice, there is the slightest hesitation there that to me really takes it to another level. I’m hitting it right in a beat, and then when I try to hesitate, it’s too late. I notice you do it perfectly when played at speed, but slowed down I am not sure but it seems you hit the beat like I am. Oh well, Just gotta work in it to nail it, as you do. Also the Rythm part in the verses. Thanks for pointing out how much is going on there, the variations that come and go. I was working off a live version if the song, which they played more straightforward, but just bought the original and can clearly hear a lot more activity as you showed. Trying to figure out if there is a “sense” to it or if it is just random when they play more straight or add beats and notes from the normal shuffle style. As we get older, at least me, sometimes we gloss over the small details (I notice band mates do this too) in the rythm section. I think a lot of times we listen to a round of the verse and Think “ok that’s the verse part” and don’t realize the cool things they do to make it more interesting. Your videos are just perfect for someone that can already play, and I LOVE that you often also offer a demo version to play along with! Hope you keep churning them out! Thank you!

[@gibsonlpxr1767]

You are The Man. I so appreciate the way you move along with adequate information at the right time without getting bogged down with tedious explanations. Accuracy, feel and great tones. You are my go to when I'm not getting a song plus or just want a fast way to learn a new one. Really appreciate your work. Donation on the way brother.

[@thekolt533]

One of my all time fav party songs and bands ....thanx so much !!

[@kgreene1958]

This is quite interesting. Some years ago, Paul Warren (former guitarist for Rod Stewart) described for me how he plays this tune in concert and he told me to just drop the A5 to G and play it there, however I've always kept playing it in Standard tuning for expediency and practical reasons, AND cuz I felt I did it justice at least as well as Drop G. Now that I hear this, I'm have to reconsider my approach because this kind of nails it on a certain level. Kudos man. Glad I've stayed on your email list!

[@2253glen]

Xcellent. For sure one of the greats of all time. If you can stay still during this song, you're dead.

[@scottfromsouthcarolina3185]

Great lesson, thanks for the important details. I've alway wanted to play this song.

[@andrewkaiser7203]

I loved this song immediately when I first heard it. It has an obvious Stonsey-ness to it. But I didn't know it was Ron Wood at the time. I found out a few years later, even though I was already a Stones fan. And no wonder. Ronnie was wanting into the Stones (as if that's a reasonable goal!). But THIS song cemented his spot, methinks.

[@pddaniel8033]

Fab lesson - thank you!

[@freddiebargiacchi3744]

Absolutely par e Excellence! It’s as if Ronnie was in the room! You nailed it! Also agree with your comment about Rod he was the man when he was Rod the Mod!

[@patrickfitzgerald3747]

Yes, the best guitar intro ever! Thank you sooo much for showing us.

[@greensombrero3641]

BRAVO! FACES WERE INCREDIBLE

[@chipdippelstein]

Awesome. So you've recently done some Stones, link that up with Ron Wood to get to the Faces. And Ron Wood would take you back to the Jeff Beck Group. How about something off the Truth album? "I Ain't Superstitious" perhaps?

[@bobwall68]

yeah, do something completely different from this

[@madscientist4578]

Just a suggestion- I use the slide on my pinky, which allows less cramping of the fingers, as well as being able to transition from slide to standard picking.

[@dangolguitartech]

So good! What a great selection to work on, and you killed it as usual… I always thought there was more than one guitar in the intro, as well. Guess that’s why I never came close to even trying to learn this. But now you’re giving me hope! Thanks!

[@bullkellhofer8157]

Great job. I really enjoyed your lesson. I agree with you, keyboards would have been great. The keyboard break in the song and Woods style of rhythm are what drew me to this back in the early to mid 70's. I saw Rod live in Cleveland at Richfield Coliseum. Hot Legs, Maggie Mae, and Stay with me, my favorites. Thanks again.

[@veekatore8983]

Hot legs is also fun to play. I played drums and a lot of screw ups when playing that song for our 2 guitarists. .lol I think it was best to have 3 on that song. We would be more surprised if we all got it right. There's a sweet bass Riff as well and one of the best leads with sweet backing rhythm.... Underrated leads... Yea there was too much disco going on and Rod did a little..lol

[@chrishonsel2902]

Really great lessons, awesome song selections, as well as appreciate the background info about the song and musicians! Thank you

[@SuperBoneidol]

I totally agree with everything you say. Fabulous band fantastic song. Red lips hair and fingernails I guess you’re a big old Jezebel was my favourite pick up line at discos back in the day. Didn’t work for me as well as it did for Rod Great lesson by the way Got to mention Steve Marriott original front man of the small faces. I was born in 55 and definitely lived through the best rock n roll years there will ever be

[@twofingerspirits1479]

Great video and lesson. I really enjoyed your thoughts on all the members of the faces. And I agree with you 100%

[@g3ultra]

Excellent! Always wanted to learn this but I never think about it until I hear it on the radio, which is rarely. I think this is the best riff Ronnie Wood has ever written. Thanks for putting it out there for us!

[@gomezthechimp1116]

My favourite song of theirs is (I know) I`m Losing You. Check out the live version with the Kenney Jones drum solo.

[@Dan-mi7hn]

Great many thanks

[@bkkfarang4749]

Very interesting..... good job.

[@harrygorter6053]

Fantastic !!

[@roryboy100]

Thank-you, much appreciated

[@TNDAVES]

Man I sure appreciate your lessons

[@ErrVine]

Great lesson! My tablature books were not even close. Your lessons are the best! Have you ever thought about teaching the song "I'm Losing You" by Rod? One of my favorites.

[@badkatrising3918]

Robert Irvine totally agree. Would love a lesson on that as well. That’s two of us so far. Please more people join us with this request. Thanks

[@PhilipK100]

I third that 👍

[@davidshields948]

Great. You've even got the tone spot on 👍🎸👏👏

[@jbrooks1348]

Great lesson as always, much appreciation for your hard work.

[@jbrooks1348]

The notes are super simple, its all about locking into the groove...you really have to trust your ears on this one.

[@nancyparker9809]

Fantastic. Extremely thorough knowledge, coupled with very accessible teaching style. Also zero self aggrandizement and ego. Best tutorial ever! Closely followed by by Alex Leifson teaching us how to play Tom Sawyer Though LOL

[@juana1483]

You taught me a new word: aggrandizement. Geeze and I have a degree in English!!

[@DessieTots]

Andy that is bye a long way, for me, the most satisfying lesson I've watched and practiced with so far. I'm very new to electric guitar playing and so it is great to "give it the beans". Very much appreciate your shared knowledge and hard work making these videos. I'll definitely grab the wife's credit card to make a donation. That Open E tuning sounds amazing. But £14.10 + for a mug??? I don't love you that much :-)

[@stevenday9687]

Why even say that crap man. Hell, guitar lessons cost more than that. Had a great reply that was cool ruined over $14.00. Banks not open???

[@EubanksDVDs]

Awesome tutorial dude

[@johnjackson999]

Absolutely brilliant, thanks for posting this, something to have a go at over the next few days, I've used Open G for Stones stuff but didn't realise this was in open E - Fab.........

[@Patriotic327]

John Jackson Faces not Stones.

[@Diddleywah]

Excellent Teacher & well explained ...Thank You! (From U.K.)

[@jerryhollis8155]

Sir, you are effortlessly cool.

[@haritssafari9350]

Hey i just wanted to request a tutorial exclusively from you cos u have by far one of the most accurate if not the most accurate guitar lessons on youtube. Can you play temple of the king? I believe you can do the song some justice. Thanks in advance😁

[@trevorpringle1480]

Superb!!!

[@dodgecukc]

Thanks for this, you are right, an amazing intro

[@twofingerspirits1479]

[@lockedin60]

Woodie was always about feel. What a great tune by a great Band. I wish they had been around longer but Rod needed to spread his wings. Ronnie landed his best gig ever. The Stones.

[@suttonknight8625]

Crazy good! Thanks and amazing job!

Love it, added to the must do list, thanks

[@MilitaryAIWorks100]

Thank you thank you thank you! Love this song and I’ve been wanting a good lesson/demo. Keep up the great work!

[@custom.0860]

Hey Andy Since we are in the 70's what do you think about something from Frampton Comes Alive. I was thinking "I'll Give You"Money I think the solos in that song would be cool to learn. Everybody had that album in my day and most of the other songs have already been covered elsewhere but have never seen that one. Anyway love your lessons, try to contribute every time I see a song I want to learn whether I actually learn it or not is an entirely different story, really enjoy watching you play. Thanks

[@darrengallagher8051]

Another fantastic lesson thanks brother

[@isaacjohnson.]

So So good. Thank you for this great lesson totally rocking song! Love it.

[@TRyan-op2jo]

Wow!! Beautiful job.
