The SHOCK When I Discovered THIS!

After hours of transcribing and research I was shocked that John actually played it like this!
This journey to get to my transcription video was interesting and I wanted to share it to get you on a quest of discovering.
Bye Bye Badman by The Stone Roses. The bit thay took me so long was getting the chorus down how John Squire played it on the record.

John Squire is unbelievable. His fluid inventions are refreshing and original, like his visual art. Thanks Dean.

[@RiffsRhythm]

Couldn't agree more!

[@SpikeyBoy25]

Probably one of the most underrated guitarists ever. Has it all.

[@RiffsRhythm]

5/1/24 get it in the diary LG and JS! SO looking forward to it. Hopefully he will reach more people

[@cinemar]

Who's been underrating John Squire? First I heard of this. We've been nothing but adoring fans of his guitar laying for more than 30 years now.

[@kimchi_b]

@@cinemar The industry and the general public.

[@henrikrdstherchristie9553]

The singer not so much.

[@craigesson6944]

Cracking Job Dean, thanks again for your efforts on this one. More of the same please!

[@RiffsRhythm]

Thanks Craig, it was fun doing something different and hopefully showing the issues of becoming a perfectionist!

[@datsunyellow2570]

your playing is ethereal. transports me to another place. will have to give this a crack! never like playing with a capo so this is most welcome

[@RiffsRhythm]

very kind words! thank you. Yes please have a go and let me know how you get on

[@johncollins5552]

Did you know John spent about 300,000 of the geffen advance for second coming album on a 59 Les Paul.😂 It does sound amazing when he plays it, I heard it live at Roses reunion gig in Dublin, amazing player.

[@RiffsRhythm]

Wow! I didn’t know this! 😂 Did he then have to sell it to pay the fee back? I know he recently purchased at 58 with bigsby as he didn’t have his 59 which you are referring to.

[@Kommander_Rahnn]

That's what I would have done. 😂

[@agdgdgwngo]

It's a really beautiful piece of music that solo nice work deciphering it. Caused me headaches as kid try to learn guitar.

[@RiffsRhythm]

It was a headache working it out and learning it :) Glad I did though as I love discovering these things and sharing it. Hopefully now you can learn it? I have done a whole playlist of Stone Roses songs here kzbin.info/aero/PLRmdYbn2rqyWxl49sHHCiLsfu1V5UYQ3Q if you want to check this out too. Thanks for your support.

[@PracticeLikeAPro]

Great video mate thanks for breaking it down!

[@RiffsRhythm]

Thanks mate! It was a good discovery

[@MLNLad]

Great stuff. Well done

[@RiffsRhythm]

Thanks Luke, I had fun putting this one together.

[@eamonndinan5996]

Brilliant this. .👍

[@RiffsRhythm]

thank you!

[@iani1457]

Mani’s on record as saying they were never really happy with it live cos it’s so damm difficult

[@RiffsRhythm]

Thats interesting! I didn't know that. Thanks for the insight

[@isaacpriestley]

It sounded great in 2012!

[@OpiateHolidays]

3:46 I practiced this years ago but eventually gave up on it from the tabs I found online. I might try it again now.

[@RiffsRhythm]

Well I can say after a a lot of research this is how he plays it. However I think you might this video interesting kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGjbqoGOntWDZq8 This is my journey getting to this video and watching John playing live on youtube, i was surprised

[@Ellieandmasonmusic]

Yes fella lovley playing, hope you don’t mind me asking where your overhead jacket is from please🤣 nice one

[@RiffsRhythm]

Thanks man! This was a little find in Supermarket of Sainsburys in the UK. Didn't expect to see something like this in there but it's the Liam Gallagher vibe :)

[@EmbodiedNonDuality]

The tab book worked nicely for me

[@RiffsRhythm]

Does the Tab Book have a capo on 2nd Fret?

[@EmbodiedNonDuality]

I no longer have it but as I recall, yes it did. You do a great job here.

[@RiffsRhythm]

@@EmbodiedNonDuality thanks Jon really appreciate it!

[@kevinborland2090]

Headless guitar player the best way to play it, exactly like the studio recording

[@RiffsRhythm]

Alot of people play this with the capo as from this video he plays it without. Check out my full run through kzbin.info/www/bejne/n566Y6tmabmfpK8 and let me know what you think. I have spent along time trying to get it note for note on the record. Be great to hear what you think? It certainly makes it harder though not having a capo! So not sure why John did this without. Thanks Kevin

[@kevinborland2090]

@@RiffsRhythm I think he changed it for Ian Browns voice, to suit his lower key of voice, same with Where Angels Play in the rehearsal. Playing with a capo and all the pedals squire had in 89-90, along with the twin fender amp, drowned his vocals out. He always complained about Squire playing to loud. The way squire set up and played post 2012 completely different to Blackpool 89

[@RiffsRhythm]

@@kevinborland2090 this version is in the same key as the original just not played with capo. Yeah I did hear that he was always mega loud and I think this continued in The Seahorses too. John liked to be heard :)

[@coreyryan97]

@@RiffsRhythm I love John as guitarist and even then he’s a cool guy but both bands broke off cos John wanted be 1. In Charge 2. Loud

[@RiffsRhythm]

@@coreyryan97 yeah it’s a bit of shame. The Seahorses split for the very reason and John over played quite a lot but the album “Do It Yourself” has got squires best guitar in that! Class

[@robertoestebanmoreno6996]

Ian sings like sh..!

[@Bigtleem]

Do some Dean Ween will ya?

[@terrypmusic]

01:22 Cool!

[@rickb.4168]

Fracture next!

[@glenndouglas8822]

I can play it so easy on my pretend guitar.....

[@nez9751]

Yes he’s great , to be fair he’s been doing that for 30 years, nothing new But anyway bring on the new Liam and John album can’t wait Bring on the 5th

[@RiffsRhythm]

sound epic from the clips I have heard!

[@dukeofpearl]

I love playing this track. I wouldn’t say it was hard. As soon as you’ve learnt it, muscle memory kicks in and away you go! But I do enjoy the slow process of working out the notes. Tabs?……..PAH! Use your own tabs(ears)to learn! It’s far more rewarding. Nicely done mate👊🏼

[@RiffsRhythm]

Totally agree! This was using my ear but TABBED out for anyone interested. For most people, TAB is a quick way of learning tunes but yes training your ear is super valuable

[@kevinryan7669]

Very easy play

[@scottbartlett4853]

Great job! Cracking band! Too bad Ian is tone-deaf otherwise can you imagine?

[@rickb.4168]

Okay King Crimson’s Fracture now!

[@RiffsRhythm]

yep, that's some picking mayhem there! haha
