so you must be a fan of Scorsese's film

[@charlesford157]

Finally, "Werewolves" will no longer sound like I'm playing a strange twisted version of Sweet Home Alabama. You nailed the groove of this one. Brilliant song and lesson, especially the bit about ghost notes, those chik-a-chiks can really help flesh out a tune. Some of the best songs are the simplest at their core. Thanks Justin!

[@DMSProduktions]

Sweet Werewolves Of Alabama! \m/

[@longjonwhite]

Yep. I keep straying into Sweet Home Alabama too …

[@DMSProduktions]

@@longjonwhite Yeah, throw in a few LICKS!

Omg that's so funny. I feel the pain lol

[@BrianWhitmerMusic]

Clever adaptation of a piano-dominant song for the guitar. Well done, Justin!

[@davegallo8166]

Same way Warren would play it live on the acoustic

[@SaxJockey]

There is a video of Warren on here, accompanied by two guitars and bass. Also a video with a recording of David Bowie singing it; the electric guitar is very prominent on that. This lesson by Justin will be great fun to learn, he has got the right tone with that SG.

Great Video, I learnt this by watching David Lindley Playing This Song...Now There is a Great Guitarist . Who is Worth Checking Out.

[@isayoldchap1]

I am always impressed by how you can play riffs and sing at the same time.

[@alejandrohualdez5550]

One of my favourite guitar solos. Quick and to the point. Perfect.

[@WillsEasyGuitar]

Glad to see you show up in my feed justin. It has only been 5 years since youtube promoted you. Rock on.

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Thanks. Have you visited the website lately? www.justinguitar.com/ Cheers | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide

[@michaelkozenczak1666]

Great explanation of playing "the Feeling" , definitely makes a difference in the sound of this song!

[@elmoblatch9787]

Waddy Wachtel also played a lot with Linda Ronstadt.

[@robvanscheijndel]

A tribute to Warren it is. This catchy song will be remembered forever.

[@stewartsnape2936]

I remember that song coming out in 1978 cool bring back that music

[@johnforgy4075]

You are so perfect, man. And what a wonderful personality, that comes right across, even in a video. Keep it up.

[@jimkirchner3323]

One of My Favorite All-Time Artists...Thank You for the lesson

[@fabientissier1218]

ahhh ouhhhhhhhh !!!!! Excellent Justin .... I grab my guitar and I start to work this immediately

[@mkrj2576]

Been playing this tune for over twenty years, and you’ve taught this old dog a new trick. Thanks!

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Happy to help! Speaking of old dogs and new tricks, have you visited here? community.justinguitar.com/t/older-guitar-students-can-old-dogs-learn-new-tricks/26183 | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide

[@jamesbrannon5099]

More Warren Zevon, please!!! Guy was an absolute genius

[@GreenManalishiUSA]

A nice tip of the hat to guitarist Waddy Wachtel. His group of legendary sidemen, The Immediate Family, which also includes Leland Sklar and Danny Kortchmar, are like The Wrecking Crew of Laurel Canyon. They played on dozens of classic albums. And as for Warren Zevon...a mad genius, absolutely one of a kind. One of his many famous quotes: "I set out to become the rock and roll Vladimir Nabokov. Instead I became known as the evil Jimmy Buffett."

[@cleanriver2]

I had watched every video on the internet to try to get this song right, and they were all lacking. I kept thinking "I sure wish Justin would do this.". Then this. Your hair is perfect, Justin.

[@rayclark9643]

Nicely done Justin!

[@TaskMaster619]

Great video, Justin! I've found this super helpful. Would love to see more Warren Zevon!

[@michaelgallagher3640]

Partied at Warren's house on Cape Cod back in the 80s, had friends who went to school with his kid.

[@heavymetal19610]

Just wanted to thank you for singing as well as playing....I really enjoy your singing !! Cheers!

[@DiegoFrias]

Great song, great guitar, great teacher!

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Thank you!

[@indmych]

How am I doin? I'm doing great! I'm 53 seconds into what promises to be another absolutely fantastic video and I do believe you're about to put another song into my bag of favorites.

[@sumitb7262]

Love the tone from that SG!

[@vinman048]

Thanks. I always learn something new watching your videos.

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Glad to hear it!

[@brbrshpr7763]

One of my all-time favorite songs, thank you for this lesson!

[@nks2086]

Lovely song, thank you great Justin! Greetings from Mozambique.

[@iangray1010]

Waddy Wachtel smashes it on guitar on this song. He has this classic 70s rock guitar tone that's undeniably him. The groove is what hits you.

[@fherrp19]

Incredible song and lesson, been expecting this for ages. Cheers from Madrid.

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Gracias! Cheers!

[@popbattles7855]

The best cover I have watched!!!!! Thanks

[@ChadAbdulJabar]

I learned how to play the song AND I don't miss Norm McDonald as much. Cheers!

[@patpatmat319]

Waoah !!!!! Well done , i love it !

[@Blue_3rd]

Haha! How funny, I’ve been singing this song all day, now I have to play it. Cheers! 😃

[@billmoran935]

Ya hoopooopooooooo!! Great lesson

[@SaxJockey]

Great lesson Justin, the SG Tone (and signal chain) is a great match for this song.

[@OverlandOne]

Thanks Justin.

[@randyhaney5767]

Awesome lesson thank you.... great instruction .

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Glad it was helpful!

[@patfholer379]

Thank you, Justin for all you do. Since you're playing a Warren zevon, any ideas on the open tuning on "back in the high life".

[@robertblock5322]

This is something I been looking for since I'm not a piano player. Thank you, Justin,

[@todadude9539]

I love your music so much Justin your the only one I go to for lessons it's much easier to understand

[@normphillips609]

Good lesson. The music theory is important and the strumming. The other important part is the amplifier setup to simulate the original song. The setup is something that takes more knowledge than I have.

[@bobu9982]

Very nice Justin!

[@windrider65]

Love this song Justin, thank you for sharing this with us. I'm going to try this one acoustic, I don't own an electric and don't have any plans to purchase one. Take care of yourself and your family and stay safe. Again thank you for all the fantastic lessons. From Charlie in the States. I like that you say the feeling of the groove, if you can't feel it you'll never learn to play it. Feeling is the most important part of music. Without feeling, it's just missing something.

[@grievouserror]

I had the same thought, although I would eventually like to pick up an electric or two.

[@andrewthorpe6995]

one of my favorites thank you

[@markmorrison8700]

Great tutorial! BTW..that SG looks like it seen some use...out of kilter truss cover and those scratches..plays wonderfully.

[@bmsixer]

Thanks Justin. This is a great song and a really clever adaptation. A great example of those ghost/feeling notes is Joe Perry in the original version of Aerosmith’s Walk This Way

[@thebluesrockers]

Warren was such a great song writer. great cover at the beginning. always a pleasure seeing you play Justin. Peace

[@wofoo1]

love your channel, love your song choices - you're terrific, have been following you ever since i picked up the lesson you did on landslide about half a decade or more ago thanks!

[@StevenShults]

Zevon! "His hair was perfect". Hope you'll also teach Lawyers, Guns, & Money eventually. (Speaking of Zevon, you've taught no songs by the guy who made Zevon's first album possible. Please teach some Jackson Browne songs! :-) ) Speaking of friends of Jackson Browne, Waddy Wachtel is currently recording and touring with The Immediately Family (mostly members of The Section, from James Taylor and Jackson Browne's early albums.) Check them out.

[@mrsoul4231]

Lawyers,guns, and money would be amazing.

[@RebelTheUncanny1]

Nice one, Justin.

[@alexanderselvan2390]

Fantastics to learn from you dear sir From Bangalore India guitarist

[@alexhay3041]

I feel lucky to have stumbled across this when it's still brand-new. I've enjoyed other lessons by Justin, and this is another great one. I appreciate the detail and careful explanations. Thank you!

[@Username89039]

You're the best Justin! Another great lesson. Does your voice have a slight Australasian twang?

[@jameshaff6574]

More Zevon!

[@AliOsman1]

Suits your voice Justin!

[@DwainDwight]

love that SG mate

[@Jhossack11]

Sweet lesson!

[@bestself2438]

You can also roll your left hand so you don’t have to finger it with another finger.

[@freddysnightmare8391]

very nice selection young man thank you

[@oki2508]

hey, i just want to say. Keep rocking on dude!

[@TooLooseLeTrek]

First - you do a fantastic job on this channel Justin. I have a question about your transcription of this song. Both the D and G chords you play as power chords (with a shuffle 6) but I'm wondering why you use a triad on the C-chord? Did you have a particular reason rather than maintain the power chord + 6 shuffle? Keep up the great work!

[@wolfie316781]

Nice job

[@mikekavalerchik5226]

I always thought it was Steve Lukather playing guitar on this song. Good lesson. Thank you

[@billhobbs7077]

Thanks Justin,been playing this al wrong with barre chords (D5 D6 etc)sounds so much better with open strings(when necessary)

[@tepidtooth8539]

I didn’t know how bad I wanted to learn this until now, thank you! Probably my mind being stained by All Summer Long lol

[@fightfan6852]

Classics! Awesome!

[@thomasking4791]

Gentle request to transcribe Keep me in your Heart for Awhile by Warren Zevon. Cos sometimes you just wanna swim around in your own tears

[@simontemplar3359]

I saw a werewolf drinking a Pina colada at Trader Vic's... his hair was perfect! Great tune! Great adaptation. Thank you!!!

[@redbandmedia79]

A tricky one to sing and play at the same time Justin, good work as always mate 👍🏼

[@kralleyeah]

LOOOOVE it!!! More Zevon please. Would be awesome if you could do my shit's fucked up or keep me in your heart. Better yet... BOTH 😊

[@douglaschristine8387]

Hey Justin? Like the tone of your SG.

[@marvinstorm9153]

Zevon ...... The bast songwriter ever according to Mr Dylan.

[@Keninoz1]

Great song & great lesson. Did he play it with an unclipped high E string as well? :)

[@jamesfewell2100]

Awsome...get to learn one of my favorites aaaaah...oooooooh werewolves of london aaah...ooooooooh...lol

[@inayatsama6059]

Bravo, well done this..love this stuff, thank you Justin 👌👍👍

[@mariorabottini5687]

Yeahhhh…..Damn Awesome!

[@barryunderwood2900]

Love it!

[@markusspans8376]

Hey Justin, another really cool song, thank you so much! On top of your always top notch overall approach I especially like in this vid those subtle hints and tricks you point out in the second half which definetely will help to bring this song alive. Having (recently) left the beginner stage I find this type of hints really helpful to enrich my playing and become aware what to look out for. All the best to you

[@chrissnape9537]

Well done Justin as usual. The tee shirt 👕 not so good lol 😆

[@garrickpridemore413]

Very cool!

[@toodyface]

Cheers Justin, pretty cool brother❤🙏👍🤘👏😸

[@JWFW-007]

Just great Justin!

[@noahmichael2213]

Thanks a nice tone. What year is that SG and what kind of amp is that? Tried looking around to see if you posted your equipment but couldn't find anything. Appreciate the video. Sounds Great!

[@Damianmillsmusic]

Love this song. It’s great if you can get the crowd to join in with the howling on the chorus

[@charynwoodbridge1046]

fantastic intro Justin! : )

[@markgreenfield772]

Justin loving the lessons mate! are they standard pick ups in the sg they sound sweet!!!!
