love your tutorial, your voice is great and awesome when your switching between your accent and your singing. great lyrics when your doing the chords while singing, and mat i reccomend fire and rain for one of your james taylor tutorials?
Is it just an optical illusion or is he not playing the 5th string on the 2nd fret when he plays his open G major chord (e.g. look at roughly 4:47 to 5:20)? If I'm right about that, does that mean that he is only strumming the 4th through 1st strings on that G chord or does he mute the 5th string with his index finger?
half way through a bottle of good pinot when i stumbled upon your upload. agreed...ALOL. ALMAO @ 4:04 etc, etc. nice job, man. beautiful headstock on that guitar, mate. well qualified vocal as well . cheers.
Great Job !!! I have been playing this one for a few weeks now, and it wa nice to see some of the little nuances that you picked out which I didn't notice myself. Nice audio / video production as well - You're a solid player - Thanks !
Justin, I've been working on this video for 3 weeks. Showing slight improvement every day.. Intro is really tough for me. Hard to coordinate right and left hand.
im going to have to look these chords up better, cause i only know the basic few.. but i like the video so far.. hopefully soon, ill nail it.. thanks brother!! keep jammin!!
Thanks Justin, I just love James Taylor. You mentioned covering "Carolina on my mind", will we have long to wait? No hurry I'm still learning this one and it could take another month before that is accomplished. Thanks again for your excellent lessons.
Wow ! Did I ever enjoy that. Love the tutorial. You are a great teacher. I have wondered how to play that for 30 years. Thank you thank you, thank you !
Justin...great way to teach the song by singing the chord names and viewing the chords themselves. I may never play the song this well but I will have a better chance now that I've seen your video. Thanks from St. Louis
Justin, Love the video. This is a song I have tried to play on and off for a couple of years and you have finally made it possible...thank you. People like you make the world a better place...thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge.
Hi Justin, thanks for the JT videos! I went to download the pdf but noticed they are no longer on your site. Did "the man" come down on you? Is there a way I can access them?
Magnificent! My friend turned me on to your website yesterday. I've paid for video lessons at a couple of the major sites and they pale in comparison to what your free site offers. You got it going on.
so happy to hear that you are gonna do more james taylor...especially close your eyes. It would be great if you could also do a lesson on "soldiers"...a short, sweet, and underrated james taylor tune!
@eukicos Its a maton from his original homeland of Australia, I would love one but they don't come cheap, probably around $1500-2,000 U.S , I think his is the Jester model and you can see it on their website maton guitars .com
lol, i love your technique at teaching timing as well, d all you g to a.. d. b minor your g chord to D! and g, going to A minor 7 going to B! as always, well done justin.
@hipyaboyya yah I agree, he has that great Maton guitar that sounds awesome and its got that god awful pickguard lol, never mind still sounds oh so sweet.
Justin you rock!! 7/10 of my guitar skills are attributed to you and your website, but please, please pierce your other ear as well? One earring? who does that? haha jk, I only have one ear pierced, my gay ear.
I must admit I'm no singer but when I paly a song I learn from you I too sing the chords instead of the words to the song people some times look at me funny as I do sometimes sing aloud
Sir I tip my hat and bend my knee to the master of Youtube
Am just able to "stick" the open chords now so this is a bit advanced for now but I am so happy that a bunch of James Taylor lessons will be here when I am adavanced enough to play them! Thanks so much for the lessons Justin..
good job! your singing is really good. i've always wanted to learn this song. thanks so much for all the great things you do here on youtube.
