Led Zeppelin’s “Ramble On” - Guitar Lesson [Guitar Solo and Song Breakdown]

In this episode I share the pure joy of learning and playing the Led Zeppelin song “Ramble On”. This is such an incredible track compositionally and a delight to play on guitar. Released by the band in 1969, the track is an early demonstration of the use of light and heavy textures within the same song. That dichotomy became one of the signature traits of Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin throughout their career.
Disclosure: That is me actually playing the chorus riff live against a KZbin drum/bass backing track at the introduction to this episode. I did NOT use a Led Zeppelin recording. I’m using a Bogner ‘La Grange’ distortion pedal into my Fender Deluxe Reverb amp (which has been modified).
In this video (1) I discuss and demonstrate the fluid nature of strumming. (2) The difference between power vs. force in ones playing and set-up. (3) The variations of the verse throughout the piece, (4) the downward voice leading in the chorus riff, and (5) the prosody of the lyrics and music. Ramble On is one of my favorite Led Zeppelin tracks of all time and I can’t hide my joy of learning how to play the parts of this song on the guitar.
Stemming from my 40+ years as a professional artist, I bring a historical and a composer’s background to my love of rock music by analyzing and playing some of the most iconic music of all time. At the heart of all my videos is that I’m an enthusiast who has dedicated his entire life to composing and playing music.
Whether you’re a guitar player, musician, songwriter or just a music enthusiast, I’m sure you will find something in these videos to inspire you and help you smile.

The coolest thing about this demo Carl, is that you can talk about SO many other zeppelin tunes in this same maner.... The Genius of James Patrick Page. His time as a studio musician taught him so much, probably especially how to improvise so many chords and voicing's. Angles, marrying different structures to form almost new sounds, especially one's never tried with blues based rock and roll.. No to mention the many tunings that he used over the years..

[@barrylyndongurley]

" Ramble On " is a song that demonstrates the full scope of Led Zeppelin's talents at the zenith of their powers. The varied moods between the lovely acoustic guitar figure that soon gives way to a powerfully memorable riff. This reminds me of just why Led Zeppelin is justifiably considered one of the greatest Rock & Roll Bands of all time.

[@donmcdonald4874]

I’m totally binging on your videos and there’s is so much there that just grabs me and speaks to me, but, but, but, when you showed how the ramble on riff needs to be continued to be feathered when amped up, well really spoke to me showing the beauty of the song and the music.

[@traviswyatt1113]

Zep II, without a doubt, is the greatest rock album of all time…It’s like rock riff heaven!

[@BKMDano17]

I bought my first Zeppelin album in 69. It was actually an 8-track and I was 11 years old. Personally I thought there was something to it. Most people were still listening to The Beatles And whatever was on the radio. I wish I truly wish I would have had someone to help me learn how to play music then. I can see how much fun you're having Carl and I'm happy for you I just wish I could join you but I never got the kick in the pants or the opportunity or surrounded by people that were interested in music none of my family did anything but listen to records. It's unfortunate but even at 64 years old I still love this band and I'm thrilled that someone puts as much time into it as you are. They got a bad rep when in reality they are incredible musicians each and every one of them. Keep it up I'm having a blast!

[@robs2327]

If you'll allow me a story...I came to rock and roll age when my brother gave me Diary of a Madman for Christmas when I was 12. I loved it. Mostly because my big brother gave it to me. Before that I had fat laces in my Adidas and really liked break dancing! But I was raised in the back of my mom's VM bug listening to Fleetwood Mac and Franki Valli and all the 70s soft rock stuff. So that gave me a soft spot for music, even after the likes of Ozzy took over. I was exposed to Led Zeppelin soon after that, and I remember being so happy that there was this band that could make me feel the way Ozzy's music did, and on the next song make me feel like a Franki Valli song...carrying my first 'girlfriend's' books home from school. at 9 years old :-) They just did it all. And I have not heard another band do it as well as they did since. If I had to pick a band that came close, I guess it would be Pearl Jam. Of course there are lots of other talents out there that I respect and love. Rush and Jane's Addiction are the first that come to mind. But Led Zeppelin, man...that band can make an Atheist think mystically. Cheers!

[@michaelyork4554]

"Ah Sometimes I grow so tired, but I know, I got one thing I got to do" then IT drops, just like "Bring It On Home" Jimmy definitely knew that FM radio, and American Arenas would be massive events which would bring the Zeppelin Punch to the world. I completely agree with you on relaxation while playing. I really worked on that a decade ago, until I could play 10 minutes without tiring. Going back to the Acoustic really underscores the lightness of touch necessary to play the electric. I suppose now you will have to break down the solo in "Dazed And Confused" Thanks Carl

Love this. I’ve been playing for 50 years or so, but I’ve never really gotten past intermediate ability as a player. I’ve always gripped the neck too tight, but your musings on Ramble On, and your beautiful playing, really made the point that less can be more. I think I’m going to spend a week or a month or so playing this song along with your video and trying to get a much lighter grip on the neck and feathery picking down. This video could make a huge impact on my playing. This is probably one of the most inspirational videos I’ve seen to make me think about how I’m playing my guitar, and I so appreciate it. Cheers!

Another great vid... I have used that same technique over the years... Tim Pierce makes a great point that you pick lightly to get a big sound and you demonstrate that perfectly..

Great work Carl, thanks again! I actually read somewhere that bonzo was tapping a guitar Case for that verse percussion. Also in my opinion the drums coming in leading with the snare before the chorus is ridiculous!!! Like you said about the two hits on the snare leading into the "chorus" on bring it on home. They tended to bring bonzo in later in the songs to give it all more effect. Keep rockin! ✌️😊

Something I would LOVE to see besides all the Zep II content (which has been wonderful) is a look into how some of their songs changed from studio to live. Dazed and Confused for example, a six minute song in the studio, but what eventually became a 30-40 minute behemoth.
