how to play "Layla" Unplugged on guitar by Eric Clapton | SOLOS lesson

[@codechops]

"Clapton is the master of phrasing." As someone who's studied Clapton's' phrasing since Cream, truer words were never spoken!

Please fellow learners....get this man to a million subscribers...he deserves it...won't find accurate and to the point content like this anywhere else.

[@StevelaFrench]

He's far better than anyone else on youtube. Best teacher, best songs, period.

[@tomaszategoniemasz]

Literally!!

[@tedsouhrada7095]

Oh my god.... I've only been playing the intro and rhythm sections all these years simply because I couldn't see Clapton's solo finger work in the video.. LOVE this song, it's my best piece.... I'm almost in tears watching you break this down for us.. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!

[@AndreaCangeri]

The best tutorial channel ever. You even point out the scale positions behind each part of the solo. This is a guitar teacher, folks.

[@raydelavega7457]

This is the main place where I go for my lessons! THE BEST TUTORIALS ON KZbin!! I learned lots from here!! Shut Up & Play Is # 1 🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶👌👍👌👍👌🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸

[@upamanyuz]

Finally someone who actually got it note perfect. Was tired of tutorials playing their own versions. Good job mate.

[@markhuggins5127]

Man, you’re killing it ! Every time I tune in I’m shocked by your accuracy of how it’s “actually” played. I don’t know how you are able to channel each artist but keep it up. I went down to the crossroads last spring. Couldn’t find the devil to make a deal with. Spending time on your tutorials is probably a better trade anyway. Stay healthy Brother. Cheers.

[@imrank4311]

Dude that guitar sounds absolutely stunning.

[@nomoreidea]

Right but I think he would make many guitars sound stunning

[@Jaqotamota]

nomoreidea was just about to comment the same thing. Tone is in the touch

[@mtk635]

It’s how he plays it not the guitar

[@Twizzlemenizzle1]

Those fingers make that guitar sound sweet.🤣

[@joshuasmith8316]

Y’all saying it’s his fingers no shit Sherlock. But still a guitar can sound really good regardless that’s the point he’s trying to make by the comment. Fuckin commander obvious

[@lorenz7775]

Thanks to you, I managed to play many songs that I didn't believe possible. Clear, simple and clean... When you play, difficult things look like easy.. Really thank you!

[@shanestevens8069]

The best instructor on KZbin. Coming on 4 years of watching. Thank you.

[@glenguldbeckmusic3410]

I so appreciate your accurate and clear approach to teaching. Bravo!!!!

[@raul1st2002]

I don't quite understand why there are people dislike this video??? THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST GUITAR TUTORIAL ON KZbin. What's the problem with those haters?

[@hayleyyn]

probably beginners who need more instruction and an easier song 🤷🏼‍♀️ lol

[@dartVadeR.]

Because not everyone knows pentatonic and diatonic.

[@jeanahvatlev691]

Mastered this in less than 30mins! Thank you so much for the best instruction on KZbin! Subscribed.

[@PracticalTacticalAccuracy]

I really really like how you just show where and how to play and not beat holes in our heads with fret numbers and string names. Nice job!!!

[@billwilson7383]

Just wanted to say, you're the best. You're very much appreciated for your ease and precision in your tutorials. I wanted to suggest something a little different. Would you ever consider doing a tutorial breaking down the CAGED system, combining all the chord shapes, arpeggios and scales within each position for better melodic playing? I've just recently been breaking this down and now understanding it's importance in playing fluently up and down the fret board. I just wish I would have learned this decades ago. We may not play all the full chord shapes in each position but having them imprinted in our minds and the triads and scales within them, I believe is most important in understanding the fret board. I see everything in a new light, can't wait to break down these Clapton solos. Thanks again.

Hey man, I've been watching your videos for a while and they've helped so much in making me a better player. Just wanted to thank you. Also I was wondering if you could make a tutorial on how to play The Long and Winding Road by The Beatles. Thanks again!

[@niguel4438]

Brilliant. Thoroughly enjoying learning this. Thanks.

[@AlainVillaverde]

The sound is amazing and you made it look so easy and nice to watch

[@ashleygarner5237]

Man I really love your stuff. Easily the best tutorial channel on KZbin. There are no good videos for “copperhead road”. I’d like to see you play that.

[@overover..]

Great and faithful version. A 12/8 backing track, will really help anyone struggling with timing

[@johndoug4794]

Road to 1M subs! Love everything about this channel, a huge thank you to you sir!

[@darkwell1581]

Boy you said it, clapton is the master of -phrasing and phrasing is so important to telling your story.

[@Palmdalebandit_]

Leave it to Clapton to always be exactly in the pocket. Your channel is amazing you have excelled my playing over the years. You pick up on feel so well

[@tonkageorge]

I have to slow this down to about 75% to pick up all the notes. As a bonus I get a laugh because you sound drunk. Thanks for the video.

[@DL-xq1bv]

The cleanest player on KZbin. Love your videos

[@gregdenis5191]

Another top-notch lesson … thanks Andy.

[@dionisiotorres1383]

Good teacher...i've learned the whole thing easily...

[@stringman509]

Thank you for all your time and help Colin uk

[@berkc06]

Please more Eric Clapton lessons.

[@pjgarret7653]

Best "Cut to the chase" vid out there!

[@Landon_Flowers]

I got the chills so many times while watching this video 😂

[@zachkiker6008]

Basically play the mixolydian mode in C, which is a mode of the F major scale, which is the same exact notes as this D minor scale. Understanding modes is what has made my guitar playing what it is. Thank God for Jerry Garcia!!!

[@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials]

That's way overcomplicating things. It's in D minor using mostly D minor pentatonic. Cheers, Andy.

[@erikj2104]

First time I've seen someone play Dm like I do! And well done!

[@robswanston9581]

I would love to see you do Bad company- the song bad company and also Little wing.Thank you ! Rob

[@guacaipuro69]

Thank you for your valuable time.

[@glenclinton1418]

Thanks it's taken me a long time toget this but I'm getting there and enjoying the challenge great lesson thanks again

[@pollycide5760]

I'm pretty sure that's a Taylor 314ce... I own the same guitar. I keep coming back to hear what it's SUPPOSED to sound like.

[@oldrrocr]

8:11 LOVE THAT! Thanks!

[@abcnech]

I would like to congratulate you for this great lesson . I just discovered your channel and I will look on your other videos . Thank you !

[@hanselixn5726]

Thanks a lot, unique and masterful lesson - man, you´re a perfect musician. 🎸

[@toneloke7489]

Great lessons, right to the point, I think it's good that you don't name every note, it would take forever, this great for more experienced players to learn licks .👍

[@sideman7117]

Excellent. Thx

[@ShadowD2C]

Im not sure if you read your comments but great lessons and great ear man, kudos

[@adimarsh5028]

[@jessecabrera1852]

Awesome job, as always. Please do the solo on the acoustic version of Old Love.

I struggled so hard watching this as it was hard to see what you were doing so 0.5x speed did it for me. You are so very accurate at what you do but the tutorial was hard. Worth it tho ✊

Brilliant playing!! Great tutorial! What Taylor model are you playing? Thanks for doing these vids! 🎼🎸 Dude that guitar sounds absolutely stunning.

[@PateeSarasin]

You’re an excellent teacher .. but with this one .. would Eric play exactly the same way every time ?

[@Mravilet18]

Thanks a lot!

[@manuele.itriagom.728]

I honestly thought just by hearing the song that it was easier. I'm not very advanced in leads even though I've been playing for years. I kinda stopped learning at post amateur level haha. Now years later I pickup up the instrument again and shit, thought it would be easier. The notes themselves are not that complicated, but the feel and positions are making it hard on me.

[@danrowe79]

Once again (as always) impeccable playing and user-friendly lesson. Brilliant. Thanks, keep em coming......

[@JMRTZTHUNDER3]

Nice. Thanks

[@gavindadds4414]

Had an urge to hear Layla unplugged again ad found this. Fantastic lesson but one thing, Clapton never uses his pinky finger when he solos, always first, middle and ring. I've watched him forever and never seen that pinky come into play. He also has that thing where most of his bends are done with just his ring finger.

[@notacrew69]

How about a lesson on the beautiful song something by george harrison

[@Raddrizz]

Also written for layla

[@flo5146]

Could you please make a video for the layla Version of derek and the dominos, especially for the great outro solo?

[@Sto1660]

I’d click “like” a thousand times if I could. What are you playing?

[@rickmurray2389]

It doesn't say in the title. I promise lol

[@gp1003]

The backing track is clean. Where to get this version?

[@delcapslock100]

If you check out his acoustic solo in Can't Find my Way Home on "EC Was Here", it's the same key with a lot of similar phrasing. A much more soulful feel than this one, in my opinion, maybe because he was a bit younger then :)

[@claudiocipriani6719]

okey

[@margiesplace259]

I want to phrase da da da bending phrase as a car horn note ..lol

[@samueldamin9519]

kudos

[@snaponjoe]

How do you stop feeling the vibrations in your finger tips when playing this song ?
