Baby Please Don't Go & Gloria

[ManoloSN]

Muy bueno !!!!!!!

[dfuge10224]

Had a band back in High School, 1964.

Played Gloria, Here Comes The Night, Mystic Eyes and Baby Please Don't Go.

I played a Sunburst 1964 Fender Jaguar through a 1960 Fender Bassman.

Sold the Guitar about 5 years ago, it looked like SRV's #1 and still have the amp.

Played in alot of bands, but the Van tunes always got everyone up and dancing.

@jgstargazer

I have see many (most) of the guitar greats of the sixties/seventies.

I saw Them in Portage, Ind. back in the '67/''68 timeframe. They played both of these songs and the guitar player was awesome (a-w-e-s-o-m-e)!!

He didn't need Jimmy's help with anything, I can assure you. The riffs you are listening to were performed as well as Jimmy could perform them.

You are comparing two of the greats...

[nutbagbrew102]

really nice - thanks for posting give me more-

[acdcrocker22]

G-L-O-R-I-A , Jailbreak! :D

Just kidding, this song's awesome, they both are, and both somewhat kinda have to do with AC/DC

[ChiefSmokesAlot304]

flawless buddie

[Yoric]

Great stuff. Legend has it that Jimmy Page played guitar in this recording - the 'Them' guitarist couldn't get it right.

[jbplastering]

great song baby please dont go , great!

[SkCandy09]

thank you!

[jgstargazer]

Songs from the '60s are the best. Wish new bands would spring up and start coming out with new songs with the same beat and creativity as they did in the '60s.

[50maz]

Well done mate nice

Great Job Leo fender Would be proud

[Sidslotm]

Brilliant, thanks. That is one great guitar, what is it

[jay92069]

@Sidslotm Fender Jaguar HH

[Sidslotm]

@jay92069 wow, looks and sounds so good. you have a good touch there. I am a big Them fan from the 60s, I'm not really sure why in truth, I think it's they just had a good sound. thanks

[SmokieKane51]

This so great , these the stuff I grew up with. Jam

[rollingold1]

I play "Baby Please Don't go" in the key of E, the open strings makes a big difference, great playing though, check out Twangy guitar video, he plays it in the key of E.

[DigitalDon10]

Awsome playing! I'm 53 and just picked up the guitar after not playing since I was a kid, and never playing well I might add, I'm going to learn that if it takes the rest of my life, I'm afraid it might hahah.

[MultiCgp]

Gloria, opening sound track for flick, 'The Outsiders'

Baby Please Don't Go, included in popular flick, "Good Morning Viet Nam'

[metrakos]

right on brother!!! that trick with the open b string for the lick in Baby Please Don't Go....always stumped me....thanks

[MrKeatonNelson]

mp3iffy works again wooohoooo awesome - google mp3iffy

[Jarek9]

nice vid! THEM needs more love nowadays

[obbor4]

That's right there, dude! I salute you, and thank you for the visual lesson.

[ifyoufly]

Nice tone and i dig that crap outta that geetar.

[radiosandclocks]

Tuff man...real tuff!

[stevieVantanna]

what is that repeating bass riff underneath? Is it 0 - 2 0 - 2  or 0 - 3 - 0 -3 ? (on the low E)

I think some versions are different?

[123soulpolice456]

@stevieVantanna 1-4

[BassBoy1000S]

Aerosmith and van morrison have 0 -2, ac/dc has 0 - 3. (haven't listened to other versions yet)

[ianbollock]

Perfect backing, you got the ear!

Do you play live with a band?

Would be great to see bands playing Them songs instead of lousy pop bands.

[Bm52]

Very Nice. Great playing and a Classic tune.

[sk8er4life36912]

and i have the same strap

[sk8er4life36912]

this is amazing,and i love the fender!!!!!!!

[TennesseeShine]

OUTSTANDING! ...and I was playing both of these now classics when they first came out.

[zeebe10]

i've been trying to find this song all morning,

thanks :)

[sheaves333]

ahh hell man, you kicked ass. Great cover, I really enjoyed it. Favourited and everything!

[roge69charger]

Now I know why I like "Trains" Steam Engines, And Electric Guitars, They really Roar!

TY,

[internetkareltje]

Hi, nicely done, but the song was recorded in E. If you want a MP3 of the original THEM recording in E then I have a copy for you. PS the harmonica was an "A" type. And aldough you play nice you still miss a few notes. Take a look at the TV performance when this song was released. You can find it on YouTube. That was a playback performance but you can see clearly how the guitar was played. Regards N

[jbruceguitar]

It wouldn't surprise me if it was played live in E. It's a bit unusual for a song like this to be played in F. Though, interestingly, it's in the key of F on my vinyl LP. I guess it's possible my turntable could be out of whack but I doubt it.

[internetkareltje]

The solo can simply be done using just 1 finger. You can see on youtube the original film of Them of this song and notice it was done in E. Secondly a harmonica in Ab is not for sale standard. I think the producer wanted the song a bit more uptempo and the fasting pitching brought the F. You can hear the high E string ringing together with the E note on the B string in the solo. That gives a double ring effect. This can only be done in the E tunning. Regards N.

[didyouflungpoo]

Still cant get the third set of riffs but Ill keep at it ... Must admit, your one of the slickest players Ive seen in a long time and Im 50 years old

[Triplesod]

Yeah, very fluent, isn't he, mate?

It's often a struggle to hear people playing over a record, on this website but this guy is playing humbly and modestly and those not in the know, could easily think of this as the studio recordingk with the guitar's track turned up slightly.

[povolo1956]

I have the chord E, Em, D, A up to E

I don't get that sound (it's from tabs, and if i see you play it, my chords are wront).

See can you do a small tutorial on this one to.

The one who say a Fender Jaguar is ugly, they don't know where they talk about.

Marc

[jbruceguitar]

I'll be doing a tutorial on Gloria on my new channel JBruceGuitar.

[povolo1956]

Your the man. Gonna look forward to it.

It would be great to.

since i follow your tutorial on Baby please don't go i rewrote the tab i have. it's almost the same but it uses a capo on the first fret. 1 to 4 fret works better because i don't have a capo.

Again thanks for all your time you putting in this Turtorials.

marc

[Stichfam]

There may be 4 chords in there,

At the very end of the fourth beat or two beat of the E chord, (and' beat) ,,, it temporairly goes to an E minor, then it proceeds to D.

[websearch333]

on gloria are the opening chords D,A,E ?

[amriirma]

you play it very well!!!

[eelabob]

cheers , i'm hopless at learning from ear , tried learning from internet tabs and as usual ther all wrong , got it now though

[Triplesod]

Just takes time, mate. You will gradually begin picking up more. You will find, for example, that you are picking out power chords in a song, which you can then move around till you're in the right place. You will notice that certain chords, the D or G for example, will stand out to you. They you will find individual notes and riffs easier, as when you know the scales, you can find your notes in that group. Soon, before you know it, you'll be playing along with a song you've only just heard!

[Triplesod]

Basically, mate. Just keep playing (playing is practicing, to an extent) and most importantly, keep enjoying it and loving it!

Good luck with it, our kid!

[duty5King]

TALENTED B*stard!!
