Wild Horses - The Rolling Stones | Guitar Lesson

[@CurtisSimon-ec7vn]

Mick Taylor, rhythm and acoustic maestro. Man, he was a perfect match for Keith. Great video.

[@martymcdonald9177]

very well done. showing the options for different positions the song can be played is very helpful.

[@dontbakdown6015]

The most comprehensive breakdown of this brilliant song I've had the pleasure of viewing. Your depth of research and presentation into each song you focus on is to be commended. Thank you for this great channel.🙂🎸

[@12footchain]

Thank you very much!

[@stonodo]

Your ear for music is incredible! I'm in awe.

[@wolfdog262]

👍 This is a very good lesson, very thorough and very well explained. One of the good ones on KZbin!

[@hunzilla3122]

Mick Taylor years were the greatest

[@adriennekulcsar7734]

........best guitarist the RS ever had....

[@slimturnpike]

Keith plays the lead on this song though

[@hunzilla3122]

@slimturnpike the lead is pretty basic, all the rest is the creation of Taylor and his country influences, especially the genius of his parts played in Nashville tuning

[@slimturnpike]

@@hunzilla3122 Agreed, just pointing it out in case anyone thinks the solo is Taylor.

[@anton2417]

@@hunzilla3122 what are you on about? they where clearly inspired by their good friend garm parson, not taylor.

[@Nick051967]

The Nashville tuning sounds so great, hadn’t twigged before how that was done. Think that’s my excuse for the 12 string I don’t yet have

[@SP4313]

Wow outstanding lesson. I already have one guitar tuned in open G and happened to have a set of 12 strings in the stash. This is the first time I've used Nashville tuning and it sounds great. I've been playing those to parts for hours thanks to this video. Thanks so much!

[@a.c.4732]

I'm one year in , taken to it like a fish to water ( clean water that is , not what our politicians and businessmen have left us with here in Blighty ) . Wish I'd done it forty years ago . My acoustic has just about worn my fingers out , but as they say , no pain / no gain . Must get an electric soon . An electric sings like an acoustic can't - and , as we all know , an acoustic leads the choir !

Arise Sir Ten Foot Chain ! For services to the guitar playing community of the World .. Arise and be Honoured . Love from London , UK . EDIT the 12 string harmonies are sooooo beautiful ; now all within reach ...🤩

Greatest Wild Horses tutorial I’ve seen, Thanks 🐴

Thank you for this lesson! I’ve been working on all the different guitar parts for years and this really helps.

This guy deserves more subscribers -- it's a long slog but I think he can do it.

[@1rwjwith]

“Super Keith” indeed! One of the masterpieces of the era. Fantastic job in demonstrating it. I absolutely believe it’s KEITH on electric also , it’s so characteristic of his attack and style if you listen to his lead playing, bluesy country pretty lines. Thanks!

[@betting4life948]

Kieth did play the electric parts

[@troytempest290]

The best Wild Horses lesson on the net. Well done fella. 👏

[@12footchain]

Wow, thanks

Your site has quickly become one of my favorite sites, please keep it up!

[@guitarman430]

Thanks for the lesson. I have my Martin set up with Nashville strings just for this song . The Nashville guitar, harmonica and the lead embellishment really make this song great. Thanks again for a great job!

[@JakeSpeed1000]

Thanks!

Way, way back in the day in Boulder Colorado I was listening to the local radio station KBCO and Graham Parsons and Emmy Lou Harris played this song live,

Thank you for this lesson!

[@9999999fab]

super tuto, hyper détaillé, merci !

[@WScott-gd2mj]

Thanks so much for this breakdown of a beautiful song...really helpful in trying to put together a solo version that uses best bits. I started out in standard but eventually went with open G as the foundation and figured out how to incorporate some of the electric fills in that tuning..

[@redrock1963]

I think it's fair to say that the RS began as a heavily influenced blues country bank rather than a rock band. So this track brings their past back.

[@Fazzat333]

First class video buddy!Helped me a lot, you filled in many gaps for me ,especially those little licks at the inro/verse(keef),I knew I wasn't playing em correctly . 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Twelve strings in open tuning is where the magic begins.

[@bigtip8371]

I've heard Ketih say in an interview that he plays the solo with his Gibson that he hadn't played in a while prior to that and he forgot how good that ringing sound was.

[@marcbolan1818]

You're a monster at getting these out - great work each time. Bother to setup one acoustic to do this one. I need another! A lot of restringing going on.

[@resultadomoral]

excellent as usual!

[@kennethmccann630]

Outstanding. Def Keef playing the solo/electric. My evidence is, when you showed how to play "the little Rock part" or however you put it.... that was a Chuck Berry riff. Any and every time you hear a C. B. part in a Stones solo, it's Keef. Thankx. Keep up the good work!

[@boytjiejoolz]

Rolling stones 😎, taught on a Beatles guitar. Sweet 🇬🇪, 🍎

[@CakewalkHootenanny]

this is great! thanks

[@charleskinsey2141]

I ordered a set of 12 string strings last year even though I don't have one yet except in electric , but I am going to use my lesser acoustic 6 string as my test subject been dying to try it but not so much the work of changing it around .

[@loaap4576]

Man you are great!!

[@guitarman430]

I really think Keith played the lead on the neck pickup on a telecaster. I played it this way for many years in my previous band and it sounded great!

[@HardToBeSomeone]

Nice 👍🏻 never figured Nashville tuning was used in this track -

[@MrWilkat1]

I like the options you showed--I was playing some of the licks the same way too. Are you shooting in a music shop--nice batch of guitars behind you?

[@MrChristopherMolloy]

There was magic in the air....

[@MrChristopherMolloy]

...and hashish.

[@Teleman73]

Keith on solo for sure. That's Keith's vibrato. Mick Taylor's vibrato is much more on point.

[@fabiogobbato9146]

I think the electric part is Keith too...!

[@Billsingsong]

Do you have a lesson on you can’t always get what you want?

[@12footchain]

Not yet, but I will. Would be a pretty short lesson, not much to that song, but it is great.

[@wooferdevlin3571]

Great ear. Piano back there too, so pickin' out harmonics must have been fun. I wonder if the electric is both, Mick licks and Keith licks- same guitar maybe. For me, the Keith vibrato is key - he digs in as it decays, really a quiver. Mick could learn to ape that, but I think the phrasing has more definite ends and rests- Mick tends to gain momentum, where Keith seems to play more in that little bursts way. Fingers or plectrum? In the second solo, I really hear the pluck and snap, and some places in the verse- Hybrid picking? Definitely overdub at end 2nd solo. Anyway, cool stuff- keeep awn!! 🙃

[@12footchain]

Yeah hard to say. I think it might be fingers, but tough to tell. I play it w fingers

[@ibji]

So, if Mick Taylor was born in Jan, 1949, and Sticky Fingers was released in April '71, how old was he when he recorded this?

[@12footchain]

The interwebs say it was recorded Dec 69 - Feb 70, so......20? 21?

[@pkramerable]

Did Clapton, Allman or Page ever use the Nashville tuning?

[@12footchain]

Not to my knowledge

[@BCBlue]

I don't quite understand the tuning. Tune the bottom four strings up one step, is that what you mean? The tuning is FBEABE??

[@12footchain]

For the nashville tuning? You actually need to restring strings 3 -6 with thinner strings that are one octave higher than the normal pitch. Strings 1 and 2 stay normal. Here's more info on it. They also sell stringsets that have all of that put together for you. stringjoy.com/nashville-tuning-electric-guitar-strings/

[@charles6762]

two significant influences in this genre of music Graham Parsons and Ry Cooder had time with K Richards . Some say Parsons wrote wild horses and Richards began using open G after seeing Cooder use the tuning .

[@petertheobald5898]

Good stuff Charles, but the man was named INGRAM and not Grahame!!!!✌✌😆

[@jray5363]

If you’re familiar with Gram Parsons music, it’s hard not to hear his influence in this song! They were all so busy getting high back then, I doubt anybody remembers the truth. Surprised Keith made it through! Such a shame Gram didn’t! You always wonder what could have been, and how many great songs were lost!

[@20cenctstyle]

I loved this detailed lesson, thank you I ask myself “ does it sound like Chuck?” I figure it is Kieth if it does 🙄 I thick Taylor is more subtle ? I wonder how much Parsons influenced this song ? Wonderful job brother 👍🏻

[@adriennekulcsar7734]

Gram Parsons wrote it and received no credit or royalties

[@tedlivermore6955]

@@adriennekulcsar7734 lol

[@20cenctstyle]

There’s a video on muscle shoals and M Taylor is in it. So from that it’s maybe him on lead ? I heard everyone in the studio must do something, hit a tambourine whatever, Jagger let’s no one just watch so Taylor would be doing something musical?
