Love this tune!

Thank you for this lesson in life and The Night Life. I am a bass player and I do occasionally Play Key board or guitar. I am kind of an old timer and I heard NightLIfe, for the first time in 1963 at The Spanish Village, a road house, which at the time was on the outskirts of Madison, Wisconsin. I would have been 16 or 17 then, a junior in high school. I was in a rock band and the drummer's father owned the Spanish Village. The tune, "Night Life" stuck with me and it recently popped into my head again. I listened to the original recording right here on KZbin. I then thought hey, there have to be charts for this tune, so I looked up a few and played through them on my key borad. The chord charts for piano and guitar were not what I was hearing on the recording and I learned a long time ago to always trust my ears. Because of the way the "Crazy", algorithms on KZbin work, your very interesting video popped up. I will play around with your far more ear friendly chords right now. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, I really loved reading this comment that you left! It really blesses me that this tutorial was helpful to you and able to transport you back to such a wonderful memory. Thanks again, and I hope to hear more from you in the future!

[@jonwittenberg2776]

Chords and coffee?!! Sign me up! What a hoot. Dig the arrangement.

[@naterevolution]

Thank you friend, look forward to hearing from you!

That song is one of my faves of all time, because, I'm a pedal steel player, and the great Buddy Emmons played the intro that made that song a hit. RIP The Big E!

[@naterevolution]

It’s a beautiful chord progression and masterfully played by The Big E! Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment!! 🙏

[@UncleBuckDallas]

Nate, thank you so much. This lesson was invaluable! I've been wanting to learn this tune for a while and your video made it possible! Cheers!

[@naterevolution]

That’s awesome, thank you Uncle Buck! I love hearing that this video was helpful. God bless and I hope to hear from you again.👍

[@craigyarbrough3588]

Terrific “extrapolation”! I would definitely like a chord chart.

[@naterevolution]

Thank you friend! Chord chart headed your way👍

[@wendelllatimer4146]

Really great lesson and it's fun to play a jazzy progression that's really hip and not square and boring sounding. I always heard that Willy's Stardust album is a good gateway into Jazz. Bring on the part 2 video!

[@naterevolution]

Thank you for the wonderful comment! I’m glad you enjoyed the lesson. Stardust is a great album, there are several tunes on there I really love. We will get a pt2 to this one way or another. Thank you 🙏

[@eldestroyo]

Very nice, thank you!

[@naterevolution]

Thank you for watching! 🙏

[@artisanmetalcraft]

Very Nice, I’m glad I stumbled on to this & would love to hear the rest of the song.

[@jerrycratsenberg989]

Nate, the bridge, "Listen to what the blues are saying/playing" would be nice. Thanks!

[@naterevolution]

I’ll see what I can do! ⚡️👍⚡️

Thank you friend, appreciate you taking the time to watch! 👍

[@artisanmetalcraft]

Broadcaster Wiring, I dig it!

[@whatsthisbuttondo2885]

You made that guitar sing my friend. I love that melody run. It takes some serious pinky stretching but I love it

[@naterevolution]

Thank you friend, I sure do appreciate your encouragement!

[@whatsthisbuttondo2885]

Okay potential episode: I'd love to know your favorite moveable chord inversions

[@naterevolution]

Favorite movable chord inversions… this is a great idea!!!! THANK YOU!

[@Tony_Leonardi.]

Great episode thank you!

[@naterevolution]

Thanks Tony! I appreciate you watching and commenting.❤️🙏

[@lestergeez4349]

Haha!!!! I enjoyed every second of thIs video! Just an incredible level of guitar knowledge. I usually simplify a guitar piece that has 65 chords and fake an arrangement down to 42 chords and the average person can't even tell. Haha!! Now how do I get one of those Chords & Coffee mugs? 😢

[@musicproductionvideos5019]

Hey do you guys carry many lefties?

[@naterevolution]

We typically have a modest smattering of lefty’s
