the rest i mostly got and really like your imrov solo at 1:05 but are u using an open string as a pedal note for all of it or is just lots of picking? don't hear an open string really but just wondering,
trying to develop my finger picking style and this would help a lot anything at all really. lol
hey wonderful playin, i absolutely love this song as its about the greatest creature in the world, nothin like a blue eye merle to brighten ur day.
was wondering if i can ask u a few questions.
For picking hand -
1. are you using pick and fingers, all multiple finger picks, or all finger only and no picks and do you use thumb and 2 finger or thumb and 3 fingers.
Thanks anyway JC. I've learned the majority of what I play that way but since acquiring a computer in '05, I've become somewhat spoiled. I'm also in my 40's and have a bad genetic thing in my family so, I might not have a lot of time to practice. Your version is fantastic though. Thanks again.
Thanks again JC and, for NOT having tabs! You've inspired me to get off my lazy ass and start doing things the way I used to do them. I still have some work to do on the song but, I'm getting there. I just needed a kick in the ass. THANKS again!
Hello John. I used to watch you play in Dundee many years ago. I am Graeme Watt's pal. Of all the versions of this on youtube nothing comes close to your quality - just astounding stuff. I noticed that Kingfisher is down?? I posted a link to my friends at Joe Satriani's website - they will love hearing this version. All the best. Ronnie
Thats the way it should be done, don't copy the best known live take note for note, play the skeleton of it, improvise and add in other ideas on the top. Thats what Jimmy did. Excellent work JC.
I really love the way you play this. I want to know waht you are playing through. Your sound is right on. Were did you get this version from beside your improv which is GREAT. Thanks I am going to steal a few of your licks tonight when I am playing it. We usually start our second set off with an acoustic zep shot. Thats The Way, Black Country, and right into Bron Yr Aur Stomp. It ALWAYS Gets the best response..
Hey JC, just a doubt. Its ok to tune the acoustic guitar like that? Using C's? And its ok to put it back to standard or you have to leave in a down tune?
Hi John! Steve here. Was good to bump into you in the Overgate the other day. Didn't want to admit it the other day but I know nothing about Led Zep other than "Stairway to Heaven". This is a cool song. Nice playing! I feel proud to have taught you everything you know. ;)
holy mother fuck!!!! hahah props to you my friend... I thought I thought I had the song mastered :P haha damn, I gotta practice the scale on the tuning.
i know in this video the name john curran keeps popping up but um almost guarenteed its jimmy page himself.. it has to be ahaha..just joking excellent job mate
You are the only one other than Jimmy to get this right. Thanks for the post!!! You Rock!!!!!
