Lesson - Wind Cries Mary style - Hendrix

[Mikethekiller7]

Its easy, takes practice, i must learn this....Can you combine this with the other Lesson "Jimi Hendrix Style Chords" you made? I watched it and i wanted to combine the two

[rubytunz]

Nice, very detailed explanation, with good, slow closeups of the fingering. Very helpful and apparently accurate. Also liked hearing that Hendrix tuned to E-flat. Useful tips.

[jdiehl1959]

Actually, the fingering would be in F not E. Not an issue until you get to the signature lick on the open E chord....you can only do a half step hammer on to the third ( G# ) if you are in E. In F however ( where Jimi fingered it, but tuned down ) you can get the whole step hammer on from the open G note to the A note ( third of the F chord )

[apissano]

Nice lesson, sounds to me like some sort of country/western style riff-lick. I can hear this influence in a lot of his songs and also some folk progressions. Much people talk about how blues influenced in hendrix's music, but he also adopted many of these country music elements to fuse it with blues funk and rock.

[hectorales2009]

thank you so much, this is amazing, you're really opening my eyes (ears) to this beautifully organic style of playing... if only the kids weren't sleeping upstairs, i could get crank it !

[Stabiiliize]

Could you do a tutorial on that whole intro? It was beautifousssss

[feralking13]

Love Hendrix and love your style of teaching.Great to see the man's music being passed down through the generations.God bless.

[MrPieterWittenberg]

You're awesome dude!

[mwinkler67]

Great video, you have really broke this down to where I am finally getting the Jimmy sound down. Do you think you could do a video something like Machine Gun? Thanks again, keep up the great work!

[Matheus222]

Tack så mycket frö att du la upp detta! Jag lyckades lära mig allt via gehör! Fast tror jag hittar på egna riff när du byter ackordet "A major" till "Emajor"... Antar att det inte spelar någon roll, men skulle vara trevligt att veta vad du gör exakt?

En annan sak, ljudet du har, hur fixar jag det till Pod Farm?

[H0LL0wW]

this song is beautiful

[comeonmakemyday]

THE BEST

[fredrikmelin1]

Riktigt bra lektioner Rob =)! Du är den första jag sett som använder HD kamera, tab, olika tempo osv... Du får en verkligen att vilja spela mer!

[rotren]

@fredrikmelin1 Tack Fredrik!

[wajang1000]

You gave the lick but you played a series of strums and filler chords in the intro to the video which sounded cool. Can you expand on this or explain further so that it doesn't seem like just a 3 or 4 bar lick.

[codyhou405]

I only saw the name "Hendrix" and i knew it was Jimmy Hendrix. I prob only heard that name once in my life, i guess he has just a natural sounding name.

[Rijidij61]

Great video, and gorgeous tone.

Would you publish the patch settings as a text file please?

I'd like to try to re-create it (as close as possible) on my lowly PodXT.

Thanks

[rotren]

@Rijidij61 Thank you, I think I have lost the patch already after an upgrade... sorry.

[DistortedV12]

Sorry about the 1 dislike Rob. I totally didn't mean it =/

[rotren]

@DistortedV12 Click the Like button then! :)

[DistortedV12]

@rotren Fixed. :)

[Torro624]

some thing so small makes a huge difference....God Bless Jimi Hendrix

[knuclel]

very professional and very broke down for simplicity

[garethjones76]

great lesson - more like this please!

[rotren]

@garethjones76 Thanks everyone, appreciate the feedback. What did you like about this one specifically? So I know how to make "more like this".

[Slider388]

@rotren I really liked the part where you showed the difference between playing one note at a time and the hendrix minichords. Also, it was just very helpful to see the general "how to" closeups. Thanks a ton for the lessons, sometimes I watch your videos just to hear you play. It would be awesome if you made a lesson for Hendrix's third stone from the sun or one rainy wish. Thanks Robert!

[rotren]

@Slider388 Thanks for the feedback! I am always very happy to hear my lessons help people in some way.

[Transterra55]

Thanks for this EXCELLENT instructional video. I always wondered how he did that (since I am I not a lead guitarist).

[p3nnywi5dom]

Really enjoyed this, thanks!



[KingTabor]

sharp images and detailed insights, a instructional video cant be better than this, congrats!

[dtoohey]

Thank you - great little lesson!

[hecto95]

@Tigford really? they r better than fenders?

[Vanguard448]

@hecto95 Yep - more expensive too, but you pay for quality.

[VLombardi01]

Nice!

[OPOCHKA]

Thank you Robert for a super lesson, but would you please also put a tab on the screen ?

I am a left handed beginner and find it a bit hard to get the fingering correct here.

[hecto95]

wich guitar r u using? 

[Tigford]

@hecto95

That is Robert's Suhr. Incredible guitars. Much nicer than Fender, IMO.

[ManosOfTerra]

@Tigford In the end, it all comes down to the individual guitarist.

[starwarsfreak1111]

i hear a lot of don't let me down from the beatles in this

[LeJo82]

sweet lesson Robert. That inversion sounds great and even better with the open E in my opinion. And then I discovered an alternate fingering to play the same inversion in 4th position I think (playing that M3rd on 6th fret G string) And then I shifted that chord to an Amajor (12th fret) also with an open E string. Sounds great ! I love how you can make these discoveries on your guitar. Thx again for the great lessons.

[LeJo82]

@LeJo82 Now I noticed that it's not the same inversion because there's no fifth in it. Only Root, major third and root again. But it's a real nice variation on a standard fifth powerchord. however when shifted into that Amajor the open E string is the fifth making it a whole chord. Nice. Understanding this theory is fun.

[PhilipPorter]

Robert, would any of your tones be possible with the POD HD300?

Another great lesson!

[rotren]

@PhilipPorter Yeah, I would think so. The HD500 has dual amps capabilities, but even without that, you can get great tones with the HD300.

[NickoTheGuitarist]

Great tone! Thanks again Rob. 

[roccckkerrr]

jimehh

[GuitarBlues3]

"The Wind Cries Mary" is in the key of F on the Are You Experienced? album. Great video, Robert?

[TheSvenien]

Thank you Robert :) you surprice again :)

[CharveI]

love it, thankyou bro.

[algildea]

fab as ever!

[margovallen]

Incredible! You're a really good instructor.. making things so interesting (and much easier.. less intimidating) than I would have ever discovered on my own. Thank you for sharing! :-)

[evangelionale]

WOW!

Nice tone! :)

[Cazaq]

Great lesson , also a two note chord is called a diad.

[chessdude67]

Excellent lesson. Thank you.

peace!

[Willistonkid]

Very very nice. Love your playing. That Hendrix sound can be found on what special effects processors.

[kevins1310]

what pedal is better: Zoom GFX-8 or Zoom G7.1ut? i like both but i only can choose one :P

[Cazaq]

@kevins1310 Stay away from both

[kevins1310]

@Cazaq why?

[whapaso]

Nice Robert!  I love your lessons!

[emdblues]

Jimi's big influence was Curtis Mayfield and that style came from him ;)
