[ronpaulrevered]

Have you made PowerTab for all of your videos? I would die to learn everything you have on your channel

[sneakypower]

@ronpaulrevered Unfortunately, I don't currently have time to TAB things out, let alone post new videos. I would be happy to try to answer any question about a specific part of a song though. Thanks for watching.

David

[Bing42]

You still go to any shows these days?

[MyOwlsLearning]

@Bing42 I go to as many as I can get to!

[runtismaximus]

sweet bro you going to superball

[mbglosser]

nice tweezer tease at the end!

[eyeandmind]

Hi Dave, Been watching some of your Phish stuff for some time and you've inspired me to learn this song. Much of my youth was spent at shows. Without a doubt, your view count will increase daily as I spend the next couple of days, weeks, months, years, whatever learning all the parts. Don't know why you don't post any more videos. Certainly a pleasure seeing your songs. Maybe you're working on Reba and waiting for the right time to unveil it to the YouTube world :) Best

[sneakypower]

@eyeandmind You are so nice to check-in and thanks for your positive feedback. I've been really busy over the past year but I definitely hope to keep posting songs from time-to time. Keep on enjoying the guitar!

David

[wtractor024]

maybe one day i can play like this :-(

[MarcoGreenberg]

I love those tasty arpeggios, harmonic, jazzy riffs he throws in there in the first section and the Tweezer ending. I'm about to go to work and once again, you're vids put me in a good mood so I"ll have your version of this song stuck in my head to get me through the 1pm meeting in under an hour from now. I'm off to work, thanks for setting the mood for my work day! Peace and keep 'em coming. DH and HMG for life, who else wants them to go on tour n come?!?! East coast!

[sblackstone]

I felt deeply inclined to yell "Hood" at my computer...

[sblackstone]

I had to yell "Hood" at my computer.

[ShuguProductions]

Wasn't expecting this at all lol.... Great Job man.

[sneakypower]

@ShuguProductions

[treetophigh]

[Rjc0316]

sick harmonics bud..

[Jamiesjammin1]

duuuuuude! were you by any chance at the 96 vegas show? that was an incredible hh! i can't believe you can play that whole song on an acoustic guitar!! wow!! the thank you mr minor part was the highlight for me. but the background lights fading in to the picture was a cool touch.. awesome stuff!!

[sneakypower]

I was at that show melting my face off in the 12th row! Ahhhh, the merriment of youth!

[sunnysidedown613]

hey by anychance will you be able to send me the tabs or music? this is absolutely one of my favorites songs, and you have just inspired me to learn it on the guitar!

[sneakypower]

I did not use tabs to learn this but I hear emils tabs is a good place to go. I hope that helps.

Best,

David

[omegamagi]

You're great man!

[GracedGosling]

do you have any kind of a tab for this man? plz lemme know about it if you do it'd blow my mind

spot on cover bythe way

[harrisonk5692]

once again, im very impressed! your renditions are awesome. That tweezer finish was cool. Now im on to check out more of your videos

[greatlaw]

Really nice David...Wish I was in your part of the woods and could sit in and jam!

Peace! :)

[doglizarddog]

Love the way you compose it man. I feel good about Hood

[KillyMcGhee]

thank you sneaky power

thank you sneaky power

thank you sneaky power

thank you mr hood

[Psych0Rich]

this a really cool rendition. good job man.

[cherokeeman1]

dam dude so nice sounding. how long u been playing?

[sneakypower]

About about 19 years. I'm glad you liked it.

DH

[rsteeves79]

i had my doubts for a few seconds but i had GOOSE BUMPS by the end... fuckin rock dude... without a doubt the greatest LIVE song... no worries about the glow stick war, i still recreate the went war

[sneakypower]

Sweet- Thank you so much for the kind words.

David

[puntiagudos]

i have a question 4 the guy playing in the vid. how do u learn these phish/dead songs. ive tried online tabs n theyre a good start but they suck 4 the most part, ive tried by ear n its really time consuming. how do u do it????

[sneakypower]

It's really just a combination of major musical obsession, ear training, some formal music training and 20+ years playing experience. When in need, I scrutinize live performances or videos for help. Good luck!

[puntiagudos]

damn i was hoping u would have the golden ticket!!! lol nah but seriously man keep rockin!!!!

[puntiagudos]

listen dude u never dissapoint, u dont need a glowstick war. all u need is that sweet acoustic!!!

[koron5]

nice little tweezer tease at the end

[MJSIV1234]

This is amazing!

[jasonnyr22]

That was a SICK acoustic cover of my FAV PHISH TUNE, very well done man, CLAP CLAP CLAP

[ymsbphan420]

Wow.

[freakcaligula]

nice, and nice tweezer sneak in at the end

[highlee369]

that was so great.

thank you for that.

i really loved it

im gonna go and try to learn this now....but way to go man...this was awesome

[pepepower22]

you need to play this for the class

[lamofbodom]

seriously bro....the glowstick scene during the end brought a fuckin tear to my eye....

thank you for the insanely positive vibes...

[sneakypower]

...and that's what it's all about. Thank you for the very kind words. 

David

[sherydan]

THANK YOU MR HARRIS!

[sneakypower]

Can you feed me Ben Franklins?

[Freealize]

Dude, will you move into my living room? I'll feed you.

[phishdawg]

any tips on the basis of the song in remembering the notes cus I got the chords but the notes arnt exactly based on the penatonic scale. Im not asking for the tabs, this is an awesomely constructed solo interpretation of this song!

[sneakypower]

Pentatonic scales are great for many things but they can be limiting. They wouldn't be my first choice for the first 3/4 of the song, but I'd be all over them in the "Hood" jam. My improv toward the beginning of the song was based mostly on arpeggios and diatonic modes. Is that helpful?

[pauly7917]

LOVE IT!!

[gbg4243]

haha this is sick man, I loved it--can tell you feel good about hood! Great job.

[sneakypower]

Deep thanks--I DO feel good about Hood and I can't think of any jam that makes me happier.

[crazycatpeekin]

great once again. I want that guitar so bad (or any martin for that matter). But who is the guitar signed by in the background?

[sneakypower]

Thanks. The guitar is signed by Trey, Mike and Page from Phish. I met them in 1997 before embarking on the west coast leg of the summer tour. Fond Memories!

[crazycatpeekin]

Nice. Trey is awesome.

[atamagashock]

very nice guitar playing!god do i miss hearing this live

[joewillie33]

nice work bro

[GravityBomberMan]

Oh my god!

this would have to be the best harry hood cover i've ever heard, and possibly the most beautiful guitar playing i've ever heard!

would you mind maybe doing a tab for this?

or maybe just for the first part before you sing?

i've been itching to learn the tabs for your version of the song!

again beautiful!

[sneakypower]

It's comments like yours that give me such a big head. I'm extremely flattered. The chords are D minor/A minor...They repeat a few times until you get to an F major 7/E minor progression. Then there's a C major 7(arpeggio or Lydian run)/A minor turnaround and it starts over again. Tadah! I hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

[GravityBomberMan]

Thank you

Very much appreciated

:]

I haven't been able to find too many good tabs and then i heard this and loved it!

thanks again

and beautiful playing!

[kookedude11]

well done

[turner2914]

dude your awesome

[sneakypower]

you are, too.

Thanks, and I'm glad you liked it.

[LivesoninHeadPhones]

I am amazed that that is all coming from your guitar (well, and your voice of course). BLOODY BRILLIANT! This is your best one. Shows your talent the best. Sorry, cause I like the other ones and am glad your friend is included, but this is so complete even just by yourself!

[woodwardz1]

thanks so much for this sneaky. My computer in college had that glowstick photo for a couple years. Definitely gave me goosebumps. I like to play that last progression every once in a while and think of better times...

[smokesbob]

good stuff.

[pingswinger]

Brilliant.

[forwardmarch]

holy shit, that's quite amazing. it holds up just like that. going to record it for my mp3 player now... nice job.

[sneakypower]

I heard Trey do it and thought the same thing.  You sort of have to hear it to believe it. I'm so glad you like it.

[rjohnston1128]

You can feel good, I can feel good. This song makes me feel good. You and your buddy could make a fortune off the yuppies down on Pearl Street in Boulder. If you have a day job, you should quit it and move to Colorado.....

[sneakypower]

You don't know how enticing that sounds...If it were guaranteed money and the ability to make it, it be on the next flight (with Hugh, of course).

[olbrantz10]

thats amaZing, trey should consider u for a audition.

[Nicu52]

haha omg man i wish i were as good as you

[navajo2]

watched it again, so rad bro. if you have the time, please write up a crude tab?

[sneakypower]

Please don't hate me...I don't really know how to write tab. Would you like me to write out the chords?

[navajo2]

please. i play it pretty similarly, but i'd like to compare your playing to mine so i can have a better understanding of the notes on the fretboard. again, a crude write-up is fine, anything is appreciated.

[aceetobee]

Nav, google "emils tabs"

[woodspread]

good shard in me trousers, that's fine pluckin'

[JizzFaceLover]

dead on

[navajo2]

sick as fuck... as usual

[phishmd]

complete with glowstick war - nice! Love it.

[msharky36]

David, this is phenomanal man, really, you and hugh are just a HUGE breath of fresh air. Now I have one question: What kind of acoustic do you use there?

[sneakypower]

Thank you, and thank you! This is a Martin D-35. In most of the videos we've posted, Hugh plays a Martin 0016 New Yorker. On Runaway Jim he's playing a Gibson.

[zek5m7]

Why not add a little more variation to the 3rd section of the song (the jam)? I think that is most people's favorite part of Hood.

Great Work!

[kayaloveskins]

Kinda brings me back to the U of A student union ballroom ! As a Tucson local i'm stoked to know there are some 'mature' heads making sweet music there. Suprised no jack straw yet, after all that was 'our' song. Will be in old pueblo soon, hope to catch you. Thanks for the inspiration.

[sneakypower]

Kayaloveskins,

Look me up when you're in town- We'll play...Do I know you?

[kayaloveskins]

Don't know you, 'our' song was meant as 'tucsonans'. If the boys opened with JS after a long roady, 'we' knew all was well. Did see Phish at uof a, though, 92? Maybe we've brushed shoulders...

[sneakypower]

That was a no-brainer..."half a mile from Tucson..." About Phish 1992- that's a funny one...I was one of those snotty Deadheads who fully rejected Phish until '94. Thus I missed that prime opportunity. :(

[bigwhitefeet]

awesome as usual david. whens the next show?!?!

[sneakypower]

Your house tomorrow night after dinner!

[bigwhitefeet]

sounds good

[theerion]

man i just watched this again this morning, and when you go into the end jam, the superimposed glowstick war gave me chills. how many of those have i been a part of. and now, another.

[ARoon1090]

niice!!!

[drosedale]

Awsome man. Shot well so it's easy to learn from your playing. How about Silent?

[theerion]

No no, thank YOU, Mister Minor. Nice Tweezer tease at the end, brutha. Sweet!
