Magic Bus (Live at Leeds) - The Who

[@AugustMedia]

James you're the greatest ... you cover all my favs!

[@bluesstoney]

Thx James you rock! And you help me rock my companion tunes of my life.

[@clayton3242]

This intro is just so dang bad ass

[@apostrophe1073]

Best live album ever!

[@jamesjames9275]

I really have to go with the expanded/deluxe version.

[@ulrichdzaack]

I have searche for exactly this. Thanx for sharing your gift.

[@Nickpaflas]

I spent many hours in my room in the mid-80's playing along to this record. Huge Who phase before I went deep into Keef and Open G. Nobody ever got more out of A-G-D. I feel like we may have lived parallel lives.

[@brianbianco7316]

Ahhh...Live at Leeds. ..great album!

[@howardtyler7]

That was wonderfully done, my Biology teacher was at at that gig! After years of loving The Who from The Oval supported by Humble Pie through Charlton with Little Feat and Alex Harvey to the ultimate ear- bashing supported by The Stranglers and AC/DC you captured "Towser" to a tee! BTW, I now make Roger's blue rimless spex!! I'm in awe of your playing!!! Thanks!

[@christopherwalsh4590]

You young people will make sure that won't go down with them since their old it's going to live forever!thank you man for your great work!✌👍

[@AnthonyBurrito1313]

impeccable tone

[@JimHabash]

I played the heck out of this album on 8 track around 1980 when I discovered it. I'm glad you played it dood. Thanks! I really dug young mans blues too )

[@stevebleetstein79]

I think you are amazing and I am grateful to have found you sharing your joy and gift of playing, wish I had your ear and skill. thank you.

[@ZiplineShazam]

YES !!!!!

[@CCB6939]

How I wish I could have seen the original Who lineup live in concert..Seeing Pete, Keith ,John and Roger live would definitely have been a awesome experience!! Big win over Michigan State tonight. Duke looked good! You must be excited about the potential that I see in this year's roster... it's early but I think they will get even better as season progresses. Thanks James

[@zozo_1013]

Superb , as always !

[@billd3692]

[@trebortrahrebe2575]

I love that guitar

[@ozijoekersanov]

Thanks !

[@MrJohnlennon007]

I’m currently trying to learn the album on bass by ear. It’s very fun. You nail the guitar and tone

[@stokemeister7929]

If you don’t like this you don’t like rock n roll...

[@The8347135]

Easily my favorite album. Found a vinyl version at the music store recently. A 2017 re-issue

[@christopherwalsh4590]

I feel it dude!😳

[@theseeker6097]

Nice to see a fellow Wholigan James The Who rocks you need to do The Seeker song lesson

[@boblupton583]

btw, best lesson i have seen . one chord? one chord can be complacated.

[@joeybologny6746]

Jeez, what do you have? A guitar fairy under the bed? Is your wife Leslie Paul Gibson? Is there a guitar tree someplace? Inquiring minds want to know....

[@samdrum1]

Been loving this cover and saved it a long time ago, love it.. i had a question if you remember.. are you playing with the neck pickup on your SG?

[@jamesjames9275]

No, that’s bridge.

[@samdrum1]

@@jamesjames9275 thank you a ton!

[@kram21]

James Where did you get that jersey shirt- it’s so 1950-60’s

[@tomi1865]

Any suggestions for how to copy Townshend's delay from Live At Leeds?

[@cliffbartle3772]

Interesting, I been looking at the Live at Leeds video when Pete is supposedly playing the intro and his left hand doesn't seem to be playing those chords and notes at the beginning (although he is filmed from behind), i reckon the video editors have just used any clip for that bit. I seen this before on Fleetwood Macs Green Manilishi live video where they don't seem to be playing with the track. Great video James I love your videos. Thanks. Hope you are still recovering well.

[@waffelmeister9477]

The live video that you're talking about has the audio from Leeds but was actually cut together from varios bist and pieces from the isle wight concert.

[@whyyeseyec]

@@waffelmeister9477 - If ever a concert should have been filmed, it was Leeds. At least it was recorded.

[@bobbykoalaproductions]

@@whyyeseyec They’ve released a little bit of film from Leeds, but I personally think they have much more that they won’t show us.

[@woody558]

Can I buy your skills for 95 English pounds?

[@jamesjames9275]

Give me a hundred!

[@woody558]

James James Nope, too much

[@MrJohnlennon007]

They are a Guitar age wonder, it sounds like thunnnnnndah!

[@kram21]

great guitar playing; where did you get that footballl jersey????

[@timheslip6322]

James, can you let us know what you are using to get that tone? Amp, pedals or fairy dust as Joey implied? Thanks. I appreciate you posting this video. Big Townshend fan and still trying to figure this out the best I can.

[@jamesjames9275]

That's through a Peavey Vypyr 100.

[@lorenzodegani6971]

MAGIKKKKKK JAMESSSSSSSSSS OKEY

[@michaelherman4129]

Fantasy game time: Duke plays UNC in the National Championship. After 5 OT's and still a tie ball game (165-165), they go to a half court (literally) shoot out. No blood after 7 shots (4 made a piece). Next, the Mascots have a dunk contest with no decision (both get three rounds of 50's from Big 10 judges). To settle the evening, Coach K and Ol' Roy must have a guitar battle. What brand and style instrument does each guy play, what songs are chosen respectively, and who wins? This knowing your allegiance to the Dookies, and the Heels ability to "fix" seemingly overt cheating infractions. You can decide who plays first.

[@jamesjames9275]

Coach K does Rude Mood on a '64 Strat and Roy does Never Gonna Give You Up on a Hondo.

[@michaelherman4129]

James James Beautiful.

[@barryhypnotist1]

Great cover-----What is the tuning for this and do you have any tabs----I'm trying to follow but messing up----Cheers Barry

[@jamesjames9275]

It's standard tuning. Pete rarely uses anything but standard.

[@Pinkymilo]

Whats the exact tuning?

[@jamesjames9275]

EADGBE.

[@lptomtom]

Time to add a '60s Special to your stable for that P90 growl!

[@jamesjames9275]

I know.

[@jordandelacruz1866]

James James Or a Jr? Love my tobacco Sunburst 01 Jr! Guy who owned it toured with Ziggy Marley for a year with it! Needless to say, it'll never get used in an emergency, as firewood😳😂

[@kylebowen3857]

Are your pickups set up to be out of phase?

[@jamesjames9275]

Just the neck pickup.

[@kylebowen3857]

If I was to switch a p90 around will it give a different sound?

[@Nickpaflas]

A P90 is a single coil, so no. The Peter Green out of Phase honk sound in the middle position of a 2 humbucker axe is not a result of flipping the neck pickup- Greeny's lester did have the neck pup flipped, but that's not what produced the out of phase tone. Theoretically, you'd hear a little difference because the magnet's at a different point on the string, but you'd have to be a real cork-sniffer to be able to tell. And once the drummer hits the hi-hat, no one will know. To get your buckers to honk like Greeny, you will need to get out your soldering iron (or pay your friendly neighborhood guitar service professional to do so) and reverse a couple of the connections (or take to cover off the Bridge PUP and actually flip the magnet over- I've done this and it works great). Alternately, you can add a switch to your guitar to give you the tone. Just google it- there's tons of stuff about it out there

[@Nickpaflas]

Can't vouch for this guy, but here's what I'm talking about: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJXVp5aqhq50r7M
