Laurence Juber - Strawberry Fields Forever

Beatles Rock n Roll Fantasy Camp, Las Vegas October 2013. He is having a Master Class in Finger Picking, Beatles style, and showing the GAGDAD tuning method. Enjoy this amazing music.

This is very inspirational to me. The first time I heard this was in a small conference room at the O'Hare Hilton. I was standing maybe 10 feet away from Laurence while he played this. It has stuck with me for the last 20 years. It's really a great arrangement.

[@matthealy6607]

So glad you enjoyed it. It blew me away to sir at arm's length away from pure genius!

[@jos7006]

That tone!! He’s the god of nail-less steel string guitar playing

[@scotttyson8661]

Watching Lawrence Juber play guitar is like Watching a spider spin a web.Its amazing.

[@stoictraveler1]

Yup

[@nakonec3303]

This is very inspirational to me. The first time I heard this was in a small conference room at Chýně near Prague.

[@jamesbowen8960]

Extraordinarily brilliant. Paul sure knew what he was doing when he brought him into Wings!! He treats Beatles song with such great care and respect that it's moving.

[@57JackCaptainSparrow]

Laurence is fabulous, but lest we forget, Paul let him go after 1 album and just 3 yrs of touring....

[@amidtheruins02]

FINNALLY found a person who can play this correct you are very talented sir you inspire me

[@professorhamamoto]

Fookin' GREAT! Thanks Mr. Juber. And thanks for posting this whoever you are in the Universe of KZbin. LIFE IS WORTH LIVING.

Kurt Vonnegut: "I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, The Beatles did." Amen.

[@RMT192]

Such strange, strange beautiful music. Lennon was simply amazing.

[@ronniecraft3895]

don't get no better than that , you nailed it !!!!

[@greatnortherntroll6841]

Abso-Damn-Effing-Lutely Stunning! Seldom, if ever, have I been so captivated by someone playing a Beatles tune. In fact, I usually stop the playback after a few moments, but this Grabbed me, despite the first few seconds of instructional commentary. This is simply Amazing!!!!

[@matthealy6607]

Thanks for your comments, this was filmed at Fantasy Rock Camp in Las Vegas - the whole experience was mind-blowing. This was a breakout session for finger picking, Beatles style. An amazing few hours, for sure. So was jamming with 3 members of Wings...

[@georgesantiago1]

He is a master, pure and simple.

[@matthealy6607]

Agreed.

[@lkronquist]

"This is why I need the cutaway." Yes, sir --- I do see! That's tremendous.

[@smckeo1]

Nice Video, I wish he did a masterclass like that on all his repertoire. Have to say though the tuning is DADGAD or D Modal not GAGDAD

[@abhijitpramanik4270]

a millions applauds for you sir

[@paulllewellyn2836]

Beautiful.

[@abluesman55]

awsome thanks again!

[@JoeNocella]

Amazing

[@stevewyatt3339]

cool use of the droney layout

[@attentiondeficitsquirrel7660]

I need to practice.

[@sjdnw]

Brilliant stuff :)

[@Guitaroverkill]

I always played this in standard tuning, but this sounds fantastic.

[@matthealy6607]

Anything Laurence Juber plays sounds amazing.

[@cahillgreg]

The tuning is the smaller part - his touch is sublime

[@jpdel31]

Wonderful

[@MrFranganito]

This was wings guitar player from ‘78 to ‘80 I think. Guess he enjoyed playing with Paul

[@aftnoon2]

Fantastic. It's very interesting to compare this version with Bill Frisel's one. Both are top, but Frisel's variations are more interesting to listen. But I must say he plays Strat...

[@cahillgreg]

While Friesel & band are talented - the talent is simply not near Juber's level. You mustn't confuse or compare the two.

[@therealawakener7]

Proving yet again that rock musicians are the best pound-for-pound musicians out there.

[@cahillgreg]

He's a classically trained and university educated musician first - rock was one of many forays on the side.

[@robhasenwinkle]

Amazing. I wish there were tab for this excellent version somewhere online. Anyone know of where tab for this might be?

[@pixelatedparcel]

ROB HASENWINKLE Just get a free version of "transcribe" and have at it, brother...Then you can modify your comment with a link to your own performance and the tab thrown in as a bonus! ;D

[@mainsblanches8793]

DADGAD power!!...

[@osamabinladen824]

BADDAD power

[@Jeff.Heatwole]

Good ol' GAGDAD hahahahaha

[@MrMusicguyma]

Too much ;) Fab! Gear!

[@AP-gh9oc]

Thanks to the French guitarist Pierre Bensusan who wrote this DADGAD version15 years ago

[@matthealy6607]

+Jarbot Matthias C'est tres interessant! Merci pour l'information.

[@threehour2r]

This is news to Laurence who released this arrangement 16 years ago.

[@gnulen]

yeah i love bensusan, but don't think he had anything to do with this

[@jennifermartin8628]

DADGAD, not GAGDAD

[@patricksmith4424]

I could play just like that an hour after picking up the guitar for the first time!

[@spoonbender123]

How could anyone possibly give this amazing player and song a thumbs down? There are a bunch of idiots in the world. Most all of them are also cowards as it's so easy to be a hater on the Internet. Just a bunch of insecure idiots.Very scary. Fantastic job Mr. Juber.

Are the Beatles fantastic or what

[@juantailor]

Need a cut-away

[@alan4sure]

Seems like learning to play that is like solving complex math problems repeatedly...

[@bretvyon2336]

At times he looks like he's reaching for the whammy bar

[@Mrnut69]

crazy how he can make the guitar sound like a sitar
