Because my name is also Dave Mason, I HAD to see him when he did a concert near where I live. Awesome concert! Also, after the concert, I waited in the autograph line and presented him with an autographed picture of myself. (Couldn’t resist 😀) I’m just grateful for the part he played in getting our name into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.

This is a wonderful lesson, and I learned about Nashville tuning, too. I really appreciate that. I would make just one suggestion, and please understand how grateful I am for the time you took to make the lesson, but if you were ever thinking of redoing it or adding to it, one thought I had is that it would help if you could sing it, at least in walking us through the quick chord changes. As you said, on this song, it's easier to be prompted by the words than the count where the chord changes are concerned, so hearing them, especially once you get to the chorus, would make things easier. But I think I figured it out anyway, and I wanted to say thank you very much for sharing your skill and knowledge with us. This song alone makes my 12-string worth having!

I have watched you for a long time and it just hit me that you are as perfectly precise and controlled with feeling and emotion on your guitar as say Neil Peart on drums or Eric Johnson on guitar. You without doubt are the best guitar teacher on KZbin, and you really go the extra steps to even make your instruments sound as excellent as possible to give us everything we need to get the most out of your lessons. May we start calling you Professor?? :) Donated and thank you sir!

Your lessons are simply the best because if it's not exactly like the recorded version it's a better arrangement than the recorded version, which to me is the point of acoustic covers if you're lucky, aka good. Finally, your tone is always inspiring. That's half the battle that most people miss.
@lespaulfanofsparta6 жыл бұрын
I understand that. I played in a rock cover band over the last year on a tube amp with analog pedals and there were nights (not always) when I had the David Gilmour tone and mojo working so well for Comfortably Numb that I could freelance off his melody and bring people up out of their seats. They could feel me feeling the amp feel the guitar just crying. Absolute magic. It's like Miles Davis said, if I can't get my tone, I can't play, I can't get paid, I can't get laid, it all goes to hell. The killer pedal for me ironically is compression. A bit of squish gives a lot of controllable feedback and sustain both dirty and clean. Anyway, great work, love your stuff and it's a huge help.

I just didn't think, oh hey, maybe it's done in an open tuning. Thanks so much for showing us this. Now if I can only sing it with half the "you know what" that Dave has. He's just got such a strong athoratative voice. Take care and thanks again. Marc Trainor.

Just a music major geek observation. as you are in an open E tuning, I'd recommend referring to the strings as 6th, 4th, 3rd, etc, as they are no longer D, G, etc due to the open tuning. It might alleviate some confusion for students. Example, Strings now E B E G# B E, intended constructively. Great production value, and playing.

This is great thx. What a great song. Personally, not wanting to bring a separately tuned guitar to play this one wonderful song to gigs...I used to use standard tuning and simply slide a first position E chord up and down the neck. Not exact but pretty close keeping the 1st and 2nd strings open and jangly. If you have second guitarist they could play the higher inversions to help. Indeed, strumming and feel is still really important. PS _ Love Dave Mason’s voice. Thx

OK - You have to give credit where credit is due. Don't get me wrong - I'm a huge Dave Mason fan. Never miss a concert when he plays locally. But alas - Dave didn't write this. Jim Krueger did. Dave played with Jim shortly after leaving Traffic. Jim wrote it, Dave made it famous. Jim also started writing How do I get to heavan. Sadly, Jim passed before finishing it. Dave completed it. Every time I hear it I think of all the folks who are no longer in my life. Also - on another note, Certified Live is my favorite album - just saying.

great lesson. thanks. so you're trying to play this and you keep struggling with it because the thing that's really tricky is the timing. it is not "loose" timing that merely follows the vocals. it is instead very tight and precise timing that is written into the song deliberately to make it more interesting. but it's hard to play. my suggestion is to count it out and write out the words to the beats. so for example going into the chorus let's say "Leave" is on 1; "it alone" lands before the 3. then "Can't" is on the 3 from the next bar. Eye is on 4 and the 1 from the next bar is eye too. "there" comes after the 3 and Good is on the one from the next bar. Bad is on 1. You Me We Dis gree all land on the beat from the last bar. So you see he is truncating it in the beginning so it sounds less routine and then he comes around at the end to land on the beat and make it resolve. It's part of the genius of the song and what makes it sound so unique. Try it!

Chord shapes played as capo is the nut. I understand the up tunings aren't that bad but I've only got 1 eye left as it is. Lol
