Landslide: guitar tutorial part 2 (more challenging fingerpicking, including chorus)

[@dawnsongz4u449]

Thank you for making these videos. I’m finally at a place that I’m excited about reaching this level. Im so glad I found your channel and This is one of my favorite songs. One of my favorite songs to sing. It’s also one of my most requested songs to sing. And now soon to be my most requested to play and sing.. I never thought I would ever evolve past the FChord lol. But now I’m finally playing Barr chords up the neck. . I’m an accidental musician. Seems the universe has plans of its own lol You really are a great teacher and I hope the universe is rewarding you well!!!

[@Stink1714]

The way you explain each chord, note, picking pattern, and thinking process is spot on. Someone said below and I'll say it again - not one word in both lesson one and two were wasted. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge with the world 😁.

[@gregorywebster6640]

Well it would have been nice if he had just said where his fingers are fretting at 4:29. D7/F# ? Can't see so well anymore. Was enjoying but got lost.

[@AnonyMous-yy1rh]

This is pure gold. Spent about a week on part 1 + 2 now as a beginner. Part 2 is really challanging BUT with those fantastic instructions definitely within reach. 🙂 Thanks a lot for sharing this Dave!

[@allanfry1914]

Very good lesson. I admire the way you use your descriptive words precisely. There is no fumbling for string names or finger positioning. I also like how you keep us aware of what actual key we are in without confusing the issue. I am a big fan of your teaching style. Thank you!

[@tjbratt]

I feel the same as most I've seen posting and that is thank you for taking the time and explaining each note and pattern so well I really appreciate it thank you very much

[@Greenhil1]

As a long time consumer of tutorials, I feel like I’m a bit of a expert. Your approach is cogent, well-paced, without excess verbiage and very much appreciated!

[@andrewpayne9664]

Great teacher. Great lesson!! Thanks. Really got a lot out of lesson .50 year old beginner. Was in Nashville for first time earlier in the year. Full of talented people. Thanks again

[@christonalmighty]

You are one of the best actual teachers on KZbin. Breaking everything down to layman terms. I greatly appreciate the time you take to put everything out there. I will be a subscriber for a long time!!!!

[@StephenVTran]

This is so challenging but so satisfying to learn. I have to replay parts over and my vet and I’m slowly getting it down. Thank you for reaching us

[@StephenVTran]

I finally got it down! January 8th, 2021. Thanks so much

[@leimaniax]

Thank you for the excellent lesson and the tab. It’s so super-useful to have both for when you need to clarify something, when the brain and fingers feel confused. Thank you very much, sir. Big appreciation for you and how you share your craft.

[@stephen25uk]

What an outstanding lesson. About as perfect as is possible. Thanks so much.

[@randycoloni4864]

Just want to echo all the positive comments. You take the time to clarify both the fret fingering and the finger picking, and you do so in a welcoming and accepting way. I look forward to learning more from you.

[@lorribott5052]

Thank you Dave for being so simple in your explanation yet thorough. I am 62 years old and have sung off and on over the years. Our family is comprised of many talented musicians (including our children) and I was told my great great uncle was one of the first jazz groups that was played on WJR radio station The group was called The Apollo Five. Unfortunately, when I was a child my parents took music lessons from me due to poor grades. So now my children are grown and I hope to learn to become an accomplished guitarist! Thank you for sharing your gift!

[@nealsadventures9258]

Searched for a good tutorial on this song for an hour until finally finding your channel. Thank you for breaking it down in a way that made it easy to play!

[@TheWildcat1964]

Dave excellent part 1 tutorial and tab. Is the part 2 tab available? thanks john

[@MrJbiker07]

The way you explain the whole process is amazing!! This is gonna be on repeat constantly. Thank you

[@stephentomkins9885]

Hey Dave, thanks so much for your lesson. Very clear with many helpful tips. I really enjoyed it.

[@lolacranley3267]

Such a cool teacher so relaxed explaining everything so clearly looking forward to learning the hammer ons the are effective thanks so much

[@PaulyM856]

Finally. A video where someone's not reading the dictionary for half an hour in the beginning. Thanks m8!!

[@drudmnd2656]

good job! your precision and patience & technique is flawless ... props to you awesome video

[@rayclean]

Absolutely brilliant lesson and instructor. Thank you Ray

[@rogermorgan9144]

Very nice teaching style. I find these presentations by Dave Isaacs encouraging even when challenging.

[@stuckintrees4796]

Best video on this song I have ever seen . And I thought I saw them all. Thankyou 👍

[@jochiro2007]

This instruction is fantastic! You make me sound like a pro! Can't thank you enough!

[@whatislife268]

Thanks a ton for the video. I've never played finger style before, but felt suddenly felt compelled to learn and used your landslide tutorial as my first attempt. After many many many hours, I went from thinking it was way out of my league, to, I think, becoming very proficient and smooth! Thanks again, Dave!

[@vazhipokkaN1]

Much Respect Sir, frm India! For your genuine interest to teach others without any hidings!

[@markg55]

It's been a real challenge for me as a beginner but it's getting there and actually sounding okay now. I feel like I've learned a lot from it. Thanks so much for this wonderful tutorial.

[@Hun_Uinaq]

Great lesson! Learned a lot. So much more than just the song. All sorts of possibilities of opened up for me.

[@markfeinberg684]

Dave, this lesson and of course part 1 are truly superb. Thank you for doing it for us. I'll work on this with you with hopes of getting it down from the beginning to the end.

[@koontzman123]

Really enjoying practicing and learning this song I thought I'd never be able to even touch. Thanks for your dedication.

[@tommontgomery7325]

Thanks, Dave. Really nice instruction on one of my favorite songs. Kinda captures why I wanted to learn to fingerpick. As previously mentioned your instruction style is spot on.

[@markvl197]

Thanks heaps Dave, great lessons (part 1 and 2) you are fantastic at explaining the songs and then working through them

[@trombonedianne]

Thanks so much for this. I have been a high school music teacher for 22 years, but I am a piano, wind, and vocal specialist and have really not embraced my inner string player. (ok, I'll be honest, I was never really able to "get" strings. Perhaps it was because wind, voice and piano came so easily, and I had to actually PRACTICE to get comfortable on strings. :) ) I appreciate your description of what you are playing for us from a theory perspective--for me, it actually speeds up my learning, as I can relate those theory concepts to how I understand them from playing piano. I look forward to performing Landslide using my own, finger picking accompaniement. Thank you so much.

[@johnjohnstone8243]

Thanks Dave, I really enjoyed your lesson, straight forward and well structured, I look forward to making a start learning Landslide. It was also a pleasure to listen to your guitar playing , you make it look so easy and it sounded great. Anyway thanks again.

[@LostMountainRestoration]

Absolutely wonderful lesson and not a wasted word! You are a very talented teacher. I'm happy to sub and I look forward to future content. Thank you!

[@grantgale]

You are such a fantastic teacher! Thank you

[@lasahe4440]

That was really beautiful. Thank you Dave.

[@russcali4138]

Excellent Lesson

[@artvandelay1555]

Thanks for the lesson. Basic pattern, but hard to sing and keep pattern going! I am playing a Larrivée L-03R bought at Old Tyme music in San Diego quite a few years ago. Beautiful sound. Like those melody lines. Very cool. Thanks again!

[@davemccubbin4475]

Great lesson. Fantastic teaching!!!!!!!

[@bigboi1124]

Ditto here Dave! I have no desire to learn a songs chords and just strum it....I try to finger pick it as faithfully as I can to the original. Youv'e done just that. Your tutorials "fit" with my abilities perfectly. Keep 'em coming!

[@cohoblue6512]

Great job Dave very very well explained,No rush,No fuss, a nice cool calm explanation of how the melody and chords work together..Thank you for putting the time and effort into making this video,,Thumbs up and Sub from me..

[@kevinbodnar448]

Excellent tutorial thanks Dave😎

[@nicholassmith2140]

Dave, I love you! This is the first song I've learned, thanks.

[@Fastlane05]

It takes a lot of practice to get it down good and up to tempo (not there yet), but you are correct, it is very rewarding. Thank you very much.

[@David-uq2uk]

Think tempo about 80 BPM first part ok second part you got to create a fluid change between the chords 2 hammer ons and a pull offs then from D/f# to em that has to flow over 2 bars

[@MizzLeone]

Excellent teaching, thank you!

[@expoundnow7043]

The Larrivee sounds great. Perfect lesson for anyone new to finger picking.

[@runeatexplorer7796]

Started guitat last October ‘20. This was first finger-picking song I tried and it felt ridiculously hard the first 2months. But I think I got it now. Can sing on the verses while picking but not the chorus. That part is hard to sing while playing. But thank you! I feel I can tackle a new song with confidence.

[@thejarv.8360]

Great lesson, great instruction, Thanks👍

[@michaelc7259]

Great job Dave, thank you

[@lolacranley3267]

Beautiful

[@paulmoss4402]

you are an excellent teacher.

[@davidhenderson1412]

Great 2 part lesson, thank you.

[@SlackKeyRon]

Thank you for telling me to go SLOW note by note and guess what? It comes to me easier and easier especially after downloading the melody and timing in my head. Great job.

[@robpainting5112]

Dave - a great explanation of a great song. You made it pretty well idiot proof! So simple. Many thanks - All I gotta do now is learn to sing. 😅 👍

[@DunkMasterDanny]

Started on this yesterday, my fingers won't let me practice anymore! I haven't had this much motivation to learn a song in awhile, time to build up the callouses again. Anyways, wonderful lesson. Thanks Dave!

[@David-uq2uk]

After playing use surgical spirit Dab with cotton pad on tips of fingers after every practice it will speed the hardening faster . My tips are rock hard so hard I don't even feel any pressure on strings .or discomfort on tips .

[@algruber6319]

Thank you for a Great Lesson, Wish we lived closer.

[@yvonnebruce9759]

These are valuable and inspiring lessons. But as an absolute beginner, it would help me a LOT to have closeups of your fingers making the chord variations. Thanks for your hard work on these!

[@peterneagle1156]

Just subscribed, very good lesson showing how to play landslide. Good work, thank you

[@lyriccyril2387]

Merci pour cette leçon Dave!

[@Joe-m6p6b]

Very good.

[@hueycarter5306]

Thank you for taking time to share this. Starting guitar at 65 so I don't have a grasp of theory and my retention sucks but I really like your patience. This 2nd part is a real challenge for me but I will get it. If I could make one suggestion it would be to try to get a tighter shot on finger placement. (Still working on memorizing,Eddie Ate Dynamite Good Bye Eddie , EADGBE.)

[@David-uq2uk]

Never to old to learn I say I don't read music don't have much theory as well all I know is over the years playing I learnt to hear a song and work out the root note and chords a few scales how to transpose and capo key and mainly hearing the guitar on song and playing it slowly .now with internet there's everything

[@keithjones8770]

Hey Dave! Thanks for a great lesson. Any chance you could post the tabs for the song in it's entirety to include your intro, all verses, chorus and outro

[@David-uq2uk]

It's already posted the pdf go to more your see link

[@alfredbrusse9491]

Thank you. This is so well taught. I can't see the link to the tab though which would be helpful. Thanks again.

[@yomoseo]

gets to 7:35 , puts down guitar. "you'll be back, they always come back" says guitar

[@mokezak]

Wonderful lessons! Any chance I can get the tabs for the second lesson? And, I really appreciate your expertise and patient delivery. Thank you very much.

[@123Coffs]

Awesome lesson. Thanks!

[@itsbustintime]

Definitely more accurate than most on how to play the breakdown to the chorus

[@David-uq2uk]

Looks like this is the version he played at the American express gig by seeing the pdf tab with one slight difference the added lick he did that run down to the C

[@copernicus633]

One small suggestion is to only mention once keeping the 1st position chord shapes at the 3rd fret. Do it at the beginning, then don’t interrupt the flow after that. But this is an excellent tutorial, with the detail needed to master the piece. Thanks

[@kevinmoreno846]

SUcha great video man, you are a great teacher :)

[@Majnun74]

Great! I’ve got lesson 1 down pretty good. This lesson looks to be a bit more challenging.

[@maspe2323]

Love it!

[@joanmilligan2165]

Do you have the tablature for Landslide?

[@David-uq2uk]

It's in link click more

[@barbaramarowitz]

I am having trouble figuring out if one is supposed to sing in this chorus part. If so, I wish Dave would sing during this part as well.

[@NashvilleGuitarGuru]

It's tricky because she sings off the beat. Listen to the song for how her phrases line up (or don't) with the alternating thumb. I generally don't sing in these lessons because it triggers the copyright notice.

[@barbaramarowitz]

@@NashvilleGuitarGuru well you sang a little bit in the one part. It would be sooo helpful if you sang in the HARD part.🤦🏼‍♀️

[@dawnsongz4u449]

KZbin has a setting to slow down the video. It helps a lot.

[@jl6357]

Having trouble downloading the tabs for this (Landslide pt 2). Is it different from the part 1 printout?

[@davidweingarten809]

i love the explanation, but the tab doesn't include the whole song. Where can one get the complete tab start to finish?

[@NashvilleGuitarGuru]

I'm not a fan of "complete" tab for a song like this, it's too repetitive. Better to learn the parts for each section but be able to work from a chord chart, or at least make that a goal. Same way you'd learn a song you strum, with patterns and repetitions.

[@berniefrimond6558]

Two very helpful lessons - thank you David. Techno problem - when I tap the link for the part 2 tab sheet, I keep getting the part 1 sheet! Any suggestions?

[@NashvilleGuitarGuru]

Both parts are on the same page, part 2 begins at the second ending of the tab.

[@marybirkhead2309]

Is there a way to see tabs? I have not been able find link.

Sounds great Where Can the tabs be found

[@WScott-gd2mj]

"a bit more challenging"..haha...great lesson, thank you!

[@lucasbenjamin9418]

You live by your name Namaste

[@katechen9958]

How dare you to say that there is good teacher on KZbin? Here is one under your nose!

[@andrewbrown1970]

Here's me thinking I was playing at an intermediate level. Chorus part threw me a bit, defs made me concentrate. Well explained lesson though

[@DennisAnthonis]

Actually, you’re in the key of E-flat, not B-flat. But a good lesson nonetheless!

[@NashvilleGuitarGuru]

Arguably, yes, but I hear the chorus as the resolution to the 1 chord rather than as a 5. So the verse is: 4 1/3 2m 1/3 and the chorus 1. 5/7. 6m. 6m. 4. 1/3 2m. 5 in the key of Bb. that's how I hear it, anyway...notice that the verse never resolves but just circles.

[@DennisAnthonis]

@@NashvilleGuitarGuru ... yeah, the resolution doesn’t come until the D7/F# just before the course. The song is in the key of E-flat though; there’s really no arguing it.

[@NashvilleGuitarGuru]

@@DennisAnthonis except that to my ear, it's the resolution that determines the key. The good news is, we don't have to agree to play it right.

[@moreme40]

Key of E flat

[@OldCowboySongs525]

My fingers are sooooo clumbsy...

[@rickharvey5166]

have you heard this version,one guitar does the whole thing and it sounds excellent i think,he does it a little differently than hi original,improvement i think,heres a link mrGuru,your a pretty good teacher not a fan of your singing though,sorry,some people simply should not ,im adfraid your one of them,despite your obvious love of singing
