Victim of Love - The Eagles | Guitar Lesson

[@dw9034]

Felder made the Eagles a bona fide rock act.

[@FRANKSNAKE71]

I think Joe Walsh was the magic ingredient.

[@Brotherrod1999]

No. Joe walsch did !!

[@prod.terrace]

This song is all Joe Walsh all day

[@vinniemoran7362]

@@Brotherrod1999 Nope. Check out the "One Of These Nights" album. It's filled with rock elements. Scorching guitar fills and solos by Felder. Walsh wasn't part of the band till the next album "Hotel California".

Don Felder was unbelievable he made the Eagles

[@johnscott7791]

Huh? What u smokin, bruh.

[@Anonymous-gt9qp]

@@johnscott7791 what are you smoking kid

[@dj_617]

as is proven by the great number of hits he had going solo?

[@djjjk]

I used always think that Joe was responsible for their heavier sound. Glad to see that Don Felder is getting more recognition for his skills.

[@z-man6925]

Felder was simply a bad ass. I can't help but think Frey(rip) was just a little jealous of a guitar slinger (Frey's words) of Felder's caliber!! God Bless all of em!!

[@FutureRokLegend]

I’m 26 been a big 70s rock fan since I was little. You seem like a really cool dude. Thanks🎸

Welcome!

[@castleanthrax1833]

I've been playing for 40 years and have learned most of the songs I know by ear, and your vids are a great addition to my reportoire. Hearing a song, and then getting it right "by ear" is a very satisfying technique to know. As you are aware, it's something that you get better at with practice. I love watching your vids to double check myself, as well as learning new things. Many thanks. ✌️🇦🇺

[@12footchain]

Thank you. And love the castle anthrax name. "No, I am Zoots identical twin sister, Dingo". Lol

@@12footchain Hahaha. 😜

[@robmarchese]

Great video, but this tune is not on The Long Run! It's on Hotel California.

[@weezysmokes2257]

i was thinking the same thing man

[@aosori1147]

It's glaringly obvious the host knows Hotel California is not the Eagles' last official release. He as much as acknowledges this in the introductory phase of the discussion ,that he is referring to their last album to examine the disillusion and malaise of the Seventies (My description; not the channel host's). The Long Run's release year, if memory serves, was 1980. Why do you guys have to complicate matters through seemingly deliberate obfuscation!!? 🤔 🤷🏻‍♂️. 😢 🙏 🤦‍♂️

[@TannerBartko]

FINALLY someone does an in-depth guitar lesson on this cool song. Thank you and God bless!

[@chrisjames1924]

Unbelievably cool song. More kids should be listening to the Eagles. So much to learn and draw from. What happened to music…where did it go?

[@imannonymous7707]

this is probably the hardest rockn song they recorded....i have other eagle favorites some rock but some not so much....but i love this song ,great choice and lesson

[@adriangiles5086]

The no 3rd (G chord) is commonly referred to as for example G5 and in blues-rock its common for the tonic (the I chord or home key) to be an I5 to give that tonal ambiguity. I never considered an open tuning for this but it's so obvious when you lay it out, so thanks, you taught me something. I'm thinking it's a good excuse to get another guitar that's always in say open E and another in open G as well as one in standard tuning.

[@shawnhelsel923]

I appreciated this video. I learned a lot from it. Been hearing and attempting to play this song since the beginning and I’m still trying to get it after decades. I always suspected it was done in open E but practicality on gigs always had me doing it in standard. I also thought it was Walsh on slide! How have I missed that important detail. . . No wonder, Felder is amazing. I knew he wrote the music but. . . Thanks for the analysis and insight, gonna have to commit and try it in open E. I also never knew that full power chord with the high strings in open E, thanks for showing.

[@JimmyBComputerGuy]

Hey, that's great, Man. I never would have figured that out on my own. Subscribed. Thanks much!

[@12footchain]

Welcome!

[@jonpage4029]

This is a great lesson nice job sir

[@cyclesgoff9768]

Ahhhh open E. This has been killing me for over 40 years 🤣😁

[@wallacefoster1119]

Thanks keep on rocking

[@MattH-wg7ou]

Dude what a guitar! Dont see those every day! Outstanding lesson! I just love that intro...so much attitude in that riff and it's execution.

[@dchanson55]

I really like that SG!

[@GSG834129]

Great lesson! I appreciated your video, learned a lot from it its a gereat song and never knew it was written in open E tuning thanks!

[@alsotimvitullo]

Thank you so much for transcribing the slide part in the chorus! I'm sitting down to learn this for a gig, and you just saved me a HUGE amount of time. Very much appreciated! Cheers!

[@potatotaco_09]

great video but Victim of Love was released on hotel california. This song sparked conflict because felder and the eagles already recorded it with felder at lead vocals, but they rerecorded it with Henley at vocals. Felder had the guitar and words already written. Otherwise, great video! Thanks!

[@shawnkilmer3079]

I can certainly appreciate the lesson{ Open-E( rhythm chords + lead slides ); not necessarily Standard-E + the Mudslide[263] }. I'm loving your delay/ echo. Really, you say it about the dampening and dragging the slide correct! | G | C | G | C | G | B-flat_ A | ! Now, I'm going to try this on my guitar. Thanks!!!

[@regnetexitium2247]

One of my favourite songs

[@darrylmoore127]

GREAT JOB on this song. As a bass player , I can follow what your doing on this song with the runs and chords , then put the album on to hear the rest to know what Meisner is doing . I think your playing and teaching is First Rate 100%

[@12footchain]

Thank you!

[@willd2225]

Excellent!! Speaking of Open E, tutorials on just got paid and train train would be super interesting too.

[@12footchain]

Thanks. I got one of them for you here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2TKmHSLea6Zf9k

my favorite song from that album....2nd is Life in the Fast Lane......& Those Shoes from the Long Run

[@Weshopwizard]

Hotel California. Right before Pretty maids all in a row.

[@Pb123456100]

This is a great Don Felder song. Your approach to this song is very different to what I've found before. It absolutely sounds correct. I have a hard time when watching videos where finger/fret position is supposed to be. I'd love if you could have tabs playing beneath your video as some others have done. Thanks for some great playing and insights. A Paleton supporter.

[@Reedc16]

You gotta give a lesson on horizontal departures by Robert plant it’s a good song

Great job, how about King of Hollywood another great one !

[@shakeyblues5128]

Fantastic song 12 foot chain ♪♪ Thank you for being here for us

[@dj_617]

Felder had the chord progression on HC. And the solos. But the melody was Glenn and Don's work, as were the lyrics.

[@mobydick3895]

I used to play this song at home in standard tuning, basically just the rhythm part (not the slide part), and i had at that time a real TC2290, and I discovered that for this song a very useful thing is to set up the delay as a dynamic delay. The Eagles were a great band, but I did grow to dislike what the band did to Don Felder.

[@jeffunderwood6235]

This was awesome brother 👏. How about Eric Claptons version of Elmore James UT hurts me to?

[@jamescaldwell1933]

Came across your video. Surprised Don Henley has not had it taken down. Just a quick correction you may not know. From reliable sources, Don Felder's book and interviews with Bill Szymczyk, Victim of Love has no overdubs, other than vocals. All the tracks were done live in a single take. Szymczyk was so proud of the track that he scratched a message in the master for the vinyl LP that said something to the effect of "VOL is a five piece live" on side 2 in the close out grooves. I read that message for years and had no idea what it meant until 10 years or so ago. Also the song is on Hotel California not Long Run. I like listening to side 2 of Hotel California every bit as much as side 1.

[@lastofthe4horsemen279]

What an awrsome SG

Is there a link to the tabs and chord charts on Patreon? I joined but the only link to Victim of Love is the KZbin video.

[@12footchain]

Yes there is a pdf with the chord charts and then last 2 pages have the solo tabbed. Let me know if you can't find

[@phydeaux]

@@12footchain Found it. Thanks!

[@MaxPower-js1sk]

Dude, it was on the Hotel California album.

[@12footchain]

Yeah I have no idea why I said that

[@YooTooobJeff]

Yeah, tell us all about it... All you have to know is " V.O.L. is 5 piece live"...

[@coluber40]

joe walsh played slide

[@phydeaux]

What's your delay settings on this?

[@12footchain]

I don't know man, sorry. Just had to play with the timing until it sounded right. I used a boss dd7 delay, probably 1 strong repeat and faint 2nd repeat. Not sure the exact time though. Just experiment

[@phydeaux]

@@12footchain Excellent job. Guitar tone and delay sounds exactly like Felder.

[@brandonbutler9786]

Victim of Love is on the Long Run? Hotel California is the record its on.

[@12footchain]

Yeah I blew that. Serves me right for going off faulty memory.

[@Weshopwizard]

Hotel California.

[@Weshopwizard]

Great lesson btw. I’ve flailed away trying to make this sound right in standard tuning. Thank you a million times over.

[@YooTooobJeff]

Yeah, Souther didn't do that

[@ronaldblevins1450]

It's on hotel California

[@wooferdevlin3571]

Bad, bad, wicked Zoot, she must be spanked. Well I can stay a bit longer. Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time! Run away! Any way, bold to take on a tune which could be sniffed out. According to Rick Beato, Don H. has a room full of 50 copyright bot' operators, just waiting to seize their pound of flesh. Or at least taunt us a 2nd time. Seriously, I learned the whole kit and caboodle. Never played it, or knew the tuning. Oh, and the ceramic slide, sounds great- with your tone, never gets screechy. Now stay here, and make sure he does't leave til I get back - and no singing!! Right. 🤣

[@12footchain]

Oh, go get a glass of water

[@marcelinasueli4182]

Que nojento este KZbin , não colocam tradução em português , que saco

[@officialfanofrichiebricker8324]

How are you able to play an Eagles song on KZbin? Don Henley says he hires 60 people full time to "Copywrite Strike" all channels that play any of his music ( I guess they havent got here yet). Don Henley's Machine would shut this channel down. They could get Ad money from all the teaching channels but Henley is like "NO, we dont want money, We just want to make sure that nobody ever plays our music again!!! If the RIAA had any control over radio, Don would stop them too and The Eagles would never have been played on the radio. They would have very few record sales and probably wouldnt have lasted more than a year. Nobody would learn to play Henley's songs except him and his Ghost writer and I guess that would make him happy. ** In the future there will be No Eagles music because nobody will hear it and nobody will play it**

[@12footchain]

Well, I think it's because I don't actually play a version of the song also all. I just break out parts. No demo with other instruments, etc.

[@Weshopwizard]

Henley is a bit of a bellend. How many gabillions of dollars does he have?

[@freepressright]

Don Henley is the epitome of a depressive, complaining, ungrateful horse's ass -- only ever to be outdone in that respect by Glen Frey. They were wonderful musicians, but I never understood how they were so constantly miserable and bitching about anything and everything. I can't imagine how badly Henley was fuming when he was caught withholding evidence in that jury trial a few weeks back, AFTER the defense attorney impeached his credibility by bringing up the incident with the underage girl from the early 80s. I'm sure he was a real treat to be around.
