After all these years you have taught me you can’t play anything fast you can’t play slow, and it works. Great lesson looking forward to the next one you have a great teaching way 😁

[@brettrossi89]

[@kencostello4443]

Thanks for great lessons Dublin Ireland.First concert was Rory Gallagher great blues guitarist

[@little77me]

You are a very good teacher. I have watched a lot of KZbin to try to learn something to play. I dont know why, but i picked this up in 2 nites. I really like this Peter Green song. I am very thankful for you posting this lesson. I will always remember if you can’t play it slow you can’t play it fast.

[@rodmcdonough6111]

I keep coming back to your lesson right here which never gets old. Cheers!

My first concert was MC5 and Iggy Pop and the Stooges at the Eastown Theater in Detroit. How many people even know who those people were? LOL I have been playing guitar ever since I heard Ry Cooder playing and was hooked forever. Having worked in War zones as an engineer throughout the World my playing took me to my happy place. Thanks Angela for what you do

[@Megathumos1]

First concert: The Beatles (Olympia Stadium, Detroit 1964). I was 12. The original Fleetwood Mac was my favorite band of the 60s. I saw them twice at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit in '68 and '69 and once at a tiny club called Silverbell. With friends I drove through the worst blizzard of my life to get there. Only 15 kids turned out for the concert but Fleetwood Mac played anyway. Afterward they hung out with all of us for about an hour. I met them all. An indelible experience. Love your music. All the best, Rob

[@pmuscio2]

Wow, that’s impressive!! Fellow Michigander here. I think the Rockets did the best version of this song. Loved watching them perform with Johnny B Badanczek on drums, Jim McCarty on lead guitar and Dave Gilbert singing vocals.

[@1968JaguarXKE]

Paul From Lordship Ct. My first convert was Emerson Lake and Palmer in NewHaven Ct. 1970.... Thank you for teaching me one of my favorite tunes. Play On !

[@KevinORourke25]

One of the best thinks you do, which has helped me a lot, is your attitude when you make a mistake. I live in dreaded fear about making mistakes and I have been playing a very, very long time. This problem has plagued me all of my life. You just simply laugh and carry on. You have taught me well grasshopper.

[@fred541]

Great stuff . Love your style. From Adelaide in Australia. My first concert was Slade in 1974 at MemorialDrive when I was 13. I can’t believe my mum let me go!

Damn that’s really kick ass riff

[@7colliemac]

I’ve been playing for quite a few years, I try to develop finger memory, but this can only be achieved with practice. Great lesson, thanks for posting, stop looking at your phones kids & play guitar.

[@markhoffman2237]

Fantastic lesson, Angela! I haven't found anyone else who's broken down this essential blues-rock song as well as you did. Here's how good your lesson is: I can play it now after days of trying on my own and getting it wrong! My first concert was the Yardbirds in Tacoma on May 17, 1968 with Jimmy Page, almost exactly a year before I saw Page with Led Zeppelin in Seattle at the Green Lake Aqua Theater, where they were second-billed to Three Dog Night, which was at that point a better band than Led Zep. On May 29, 1968, less than two weeks after I saw the Yardbirds in Tacoma, I saw Cream in Seattle at Eagles Auditorium. Those were the days!

[@dukeofearl4117]

My first concert was Cream in 1968. I was a freshman in college at that time. They were playing in Denver.

[@johncoddington9532]

Hey Angela, love your program, my first concert was seeing Cold Chisel at the Wellington Town Hall in very early eighties..."wicked"

[@snaggletooth14]

You’re the best guitar instructor I’ve found to date. Great and effective teaching style. I’m hearing you here in Michigan, the water winter wonderland. My first concert was Jethro Tull, at Detroits acoustically perfect Cobo Arena.

Thank you for the kind words!

Tuning in from Galax, Va. Home of the great 80 years old Fidlers Convention. 1st concert was A Day On The Green, Oakland Collisium 1975. Chicago, Lynard Skynard, Edgar Winter Group. Was Great!! Love your playing and personality!

[@marcusbain8743]

Your a great teacher and very good player Angela. I am in UK learned the first bit of this riff in early 70s but now realised I missed out a bit. First concert Beatle's 1964 Liverpool Empire theatre. Think they only had AC30s and a small PA. All the girls were screaming so loud it was impossible to hear them. Unless you screamed yourself I soon discovered. As someone already mentioned your teaching really good technique as well as the song . Thank You. 🙏

[@zimmee]

Hey Angela, you are such a great teacher. Thank you. I'm an Irishman living in London, UK. My first concert, since you asked, was Sparks in Edinburgh, 1974. 😆😎

Thanks, love this! First concert: Monsters of Rock Saturday, September 3, 1983 Blue Öyster Cult Meat Loaf Motörhead Saxon Thin Lizzy Twisted Sister Whitesnake

[@okcpicker]

I always thought that this riff was pure magic that could only be played by the late Peter Green. Thanks for breaking it down so well. Oh, first concert? Beatles 1966, Candlestick Park, San Francisco. I was 14.

[@SadChimchar]

Wow, lucky!

[@AJstormchasing]

62 year old beginner six months now . I enjoy your teaching methods . My first concert was three dog night at the Tampa Stadium in the early seventies . I don’t think that I will ever be near as good as you are but I am having fun . I am in the Lexington Kentucky area .

[@violetflame23]

Great lesson Angela. Fleetwood Mac was one of the first blues groups I ever heard in the early sixties. My first concert was the Rolling Stones at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino, CA on June 5, 1964. It was the Stones very first concert in the U.S. The promoter almost landed the Beatles for that night, but the booking fell through at the last minute and the Stones got the gig. It was pretty amazing - once the first few chords were played, the girls began screaming and we couldn't hear the rest of the song.

[@kpyuser]

Love this song! First concert was Chicago 1973. Thanks for covering it

[@chrishutchison4875]

Hi Angela.You teach oh well so well!!Thankyou sssooo much!! First concert was Bobby Rydell,Duane Eddy and Brenda Lee in Western Australia in 1962. I was 14. Seems just like yesterday,!

3-10. (GMT) Best online tutor I have ever seen. Progress through some very complex riffs is perfect for me. I have played pretty solidly for more than 20 years. I was also a high school teacher for 20 years and Angela is in my opinion not only an accomplished guitarist but more importantly a VERY GOOD teacher. Amazing! Taught me an awful lot! P.s I have never bothered to comment on any KZbin video - ever. The fact I felt moved to do so to this should tell you something! (sounds very British when I say it like that ) it always seems to intrigue this very pretty and talented teacher where we are. Dave from Scotland (still part of the UK) 1/7/24 (7th January 2024)

Thank you for the kind words, David! Wishing you continued success in your guitar playing!

[@peterpedersen1641]

Hi Angela, it's a year and a half since you posted this video. First concert... Hmmmm Vanilla Fudge... 1967 or 68. They played at my day camp when I was 13 or 14 years old. Sold me on playing rock and roll, and have played guitar ever since! This song, Oh Well, I first heard around 1969 I think... I couldn't play it then. Way to advanced for me. BUT.... in the past years, it has become a tune I love to jam on with my buds here in PA and NYC. We are old, we are worn out, but our guitars are all vintage and well played by seasoned musicians.... Nice job on the video. I had to learn it by ear, then watching a live video from 1969 gave me hints at the three parts being played... Once you got it, you have it for life! WAIT!!! I forgot, my Dad's buddy took us kids to a Rolling Stones concert in 65 in Philly. Front Row! I was 10 years old. I wanted to see the Beatles and was mad about going to see The Stones. Do the kids a lesson on Mick Jagger's Moonlight Mile... That should get the kids rockin in a smooth bluesy way.

[@bobmays2946]

I love how you’re really teaching technique, and the song is a bonus. It’s a great way to learn skills, as well as learning the song. Definitely have to work on my guitar face! First concert was Van Halen in 1981 in Pittsburgh (not counting the Beach Boys with my parents a few years before that!)

Good morning, Angela. Live at the Jersey Shore. Born and bred in Brooklyn. First concert was Gordon Lightfoot at Jones Beach Theater. Favorite band.,.Dire Straits. Favorite Guitarist is Mark Knopfler. Have seen him live four times, twice with DS. He is a superb and unique guitarist. Seeing him live is a sublime experience.

Hi Alan from Glasgow,Scotland here and my first gig was Uriah Heep at Strathclyde University, Glasgow in 1969…keep up the great work 👍

[@ksgant]

Great lesson, as always. I just wish you or other teachers would go into the second part of Oh Well, as it is on the album. It's a very long, drawn out acoustic piece that's just magical. It almost sounds like something out of an old 1960s-70s Italian-made Western. But so many just do the beginning part, and yours is one of the better ones as it really goes into technique.

Hi Angela! - Kenne from Sweden here - Good lesson of one of my favourite tunes by Fleetwood Mac - I am glad that you like Peter Green so much , a guitar hero for me - my first concert : Traffic, and John Mayall in Uppsala

[@timnron]

Yes, the iconic riff in Oh Well has always been my favourite riff of all time! First concert was Ten Years After at Dunstable, circa 1970, with Wishbone Ash opening up for them. I loved the guitar dual between Alvin Lee and Leo Lyons.

[@gregchick3311]

I saw Wishbone at Devonshire Downs, Newport Fest.

[@paulcoonce2493]

Your advice spot on. I can compare that with a golf swing. So many people want to step up and blast it, but it takes slow learning and gradual increase in muscle memory to make a smooth swing and contact the ball exactly as required with effortless grace. Great lessons!

Back again, another like and comment. From, near Nashville, first concert, Edgar and Johnny Winter. Not sure about second, either Cars, Rush or terrible Ted, long time ago, and probably influenced. I learned this one a long time ago, but now I get to see what I did wrong. Love it, thanks again, you’re wonderful!

Tuning in from Halifax, England, my first concert was Queen + Adam Lambert at the nearby Leeds Arena (yes I am younger than some might assume think) been a fan of Peter for a few years now, my personal favourite is Man Of The World, as Neil Finn said before he covered it London a few years ago sad, tender and truthful and for anyone who’s been in a similar situation incredibly relatable.

First concert (small) The Hamsters Band, The Cartoon Pub, Croydon, Southwest London. (big) Pink Floyd, Knebworth or U2 Wembley Stadium. Can’t remember. Peter Green once played part of Oh Well on a guitar I was checking out in a guitar shop (GAK)for me. David Gilmour was my neighbour in Hove,UK. Nick Cave crashed his Jag into the speed trap on Kingsway Hove. I arrived here because I have had Fleetwood Mac CD in the car for the last few days and i’m looking for another guitar and amp. Possibly a Tele, Revstar,LP. Need help.
