Voodoo Chile Guitar Lesson

[Mrfiveism]

You missed out all the difficult bits you nancy 

[MrArgamonte]

malisimo no te enseña nada!!

[DonRMB]

This guy is a show off.. and he isnt even playing it right xD

[Safno4]

@DonRMB thats better because that means he learned it by ear and didn't look up how to play it

[johnny2x4x2]

not tuned right and not a lesson

[Doubledare51]

Actually, it's in Eb...

[djdan151]

best lesson on youtube thankyou.. any real guitarist should be able to figure it out from this video thankyou v v much youd be amazed at how many videos spend 4 minutes teaching me how to play the muted percussion guitar part the beginning... like id be learning an intermediate song if i couldnt already fucking do that fucking do that! this is gonna be my stepping stone to cliffs of dover XD

[wilbo2468]

he doesnt have his guitar tuned a half measure down

[verbw002]

Dude, nice, but for the tone, turn down your tone knobs completelyand have the pickup selector on the second setting, that should be about right then

[mattswutsup]

great job...how long did it take you to figure out?

[scr3wthegovernment]

wheres the asian guy who had a video of him covering voodoo child in his ukulele?

[rickeygottheblues]

all you need to do is download vlc media player and video soft free you tube downloader then you can download it (slow it down) loop portions that you are trying to learn it makes it easier and posable to learn from this good luck

[Dust0fNation]

stupid this is lesson?

[chrismfoster14]

nice job! great COVER....see thats the problem,its a cover not a lesson.

[kerplunkboy]

It is a lesson for those who can play a little and understand what he is doing...

[0hypnotoad0]

good cover but that's just it, its a cover not a lesson.

[pLaIrVaIdNoGx]

thanks dickweed

[M4STURB4ND4]

You really Rocks Men...

Saludos desde Peru... =D

[trunks2oo8]

thanks now i can play it!!!! xD

[MegaFenderdude]

nice one but have a nit of fiddle with the tone but good good

[micknvicki]

that was great pal well done

[MrNV80]

it's not lesson it's just a player

[Metalrulz7]

@Hendrix6is9 Thing is, None of us are as good as Jimi, dumbass

[alojz300]

why are you all saying this isnt a lesson? you can see the frets and strings right?

[Hendrix6is9]

Yes it's tuned down to Eb technically but it's all in E minor blues

[StStu]

is the whole song just based off of an e minor blues scale???

[jaydenftw]

Nice visit songsterr . com.

[tonio19]

Don't apologize for calling this a lesson! Clear, steady camera angle. Watch and play along kids. "IF" it is too hard that way here is a hint: Then the song is probably too technical for your current ability. This is a great lesson...if you are actually up to the level needed to play the song. It kills me that novices bitch about needing to know what chord is being played...when you can clearly "SEE" (and hear) whats going on...? WTF, kids...

[pamzlq1]

@tonio19

dude bitch, shut the fuck up

if somebody plays some shit, it isn't a lesson.

why don't you look up some real lessons, like the ones from marty schwartz

bitch

[Hendrix6is9]

@pamzlq1

Do you think guys like Jimi had videos to show him step by step how to play? A closeup of how to play something is a luxury we have all come to take for granted

[pamzlq1]

@Hendrix6is9 so, you're comparing the legend, jimi hendrix himself, to this dude? and even i could make a closeup on how to play for example stairway to heaven, and if i find a good guitar lesson, even this. a real lesson is something that explains to you how you should play the part

[ZeroProductions15]

voodoo child no voodoo chile -_-

[sauftoi]

OK...another voodoo child instead of voodoo chile like the title said...

[acdcjacko]

alright its not a lesson but it is bloody good!!!

[RcUniverseGuy]

thats not a lesson...

[schiffnhauser]

great job ,you rock

[qiaorusi]

I think you do a nice job here. Great tone also. What are you using for an amp and distortion?

[rickeygottheblues]

awesome hands great job

[SAMPKING546]

you need to wah!! nice vid though

[ChilledAppleDude]

hendrix cant get any better

[wigfu]

stop hatin guys atlest hes good at the guitar.. not everyone can sing lolz

Jimi rules!!!

[stantonshred]

quit singing

[bob7577]

can't even tell what your playing.The shitty singing makes me angry and can you please get the friggin name right??

I need the real voodoo chile!!

[007batti]

@bob7577 it's actually Voodoo Child (Slight Return), so you get the friggin name right.

Voodoo Chile is actually a blues jam, thats like 15 min long or something.

so, i dunno where you could possibly shove your hating comment, maybe up your ass, i dunno, just you know, make sure you're right in future.

[bf2modsde]

Do I have to get high in order to be able to play this? lol

[Campestral]

@bf2modsde

no dumbass you have to get low to play the blues lol but seriously this is a guitar lesson, you can see where his fingers are going. plus noone should ever get hung up about copying jimi, just learn his songs and adapt some of the style to your own, will save you going insane heh

[Conhair25]

@bf2modsde it helps lol

[theweird95]

where's the lesson? slow mode!!! please!!!!!!

[666nick555]

thats great

[revengzmine]

Duuuuhhhh.....How is this a lesson? If I wanted to watch somebody playing this I would watch Jimi.

[oldbutstillrocking]

@revengzmine , It was never intended to be a lesson, like you said if you wanted to watch someone playing it, you'd watch jimi. By labeling this as a lesson instead of a cover, far more people would watch it.

[HolyCraq123456789]

dumbass

[HolyCraq123456789]

DUDE ITS CHILD NOT CHILE u got my hopes up for the other song GOD

[Kubrick856]

DUDE - you're wrong. Check your facts, at least your CD cases, before you open your mouth.

[HolyCraq123456789]

ok dude this is voodoo child (slight return) voodoo chile is the song on JIMI BLUES AND ELECTRIC LADYLAND its ok though keep trying (:

[BILLpunkrockXD]

shut the fuck up TheXylophone123

[SearchInSun]

Stevie Ray Vaughn is Chile :S

[HolyCraq123456789]

i no

[qiaorusi]

Hey man, don't listen to the nay sayers. Alright, you could explain more, but the playing is good, if not excellent, and I'm sure I can learn more from watching this than just listening to the record. Thanks.

[Esp1897]

thx for teaching jk man nice playing

[joesalinas1990]

thats really awesome man.. good voice for it 2

[aquasplashanotherway]

true its not a leson but you've got that song nailed mate with some great improv soloing

[psyboyboy]

I just think that some of the comments below are too badd,its a good job man keep going,but please change the title!

[jacobnapier1995]

lesson ........really

[line6kr3w]

this isn't voodoo chile... its voodoo child (slight return). but nice job

[UtoB100]

bluesrules&Obeypuppet: So, what are you supposed to be? I know! Two jealous losers that probably couldn't play "row your boat ashore" on a mouthharp! I've been playing for a number of years and this guy (whoever he is) ain't so bad. Singing is another story. I'm sure he has more talent in his little pinky than you two meatheads combined.

[bluzerules]

That waisted my time! Are you one of those 30 somethings that live in your parents basement, and smoke weed all day?

[paulstearne]

"waisted"?

[ObeyYourPuppet]

Wow! You really explained everything step by step. Are you a guitar teacher? Oh no! Wait! You are just a dumb shit!

[dmohr7]

no jimi hendrix made it famous live the master

[chapie1987]

fantastic LESSON man! Really helped me a lot. FINALLY somebody who clearly explains the notes and techniques, instead of just playing the fcking song trying to look cool thinking they're one of the few guitar players in the world that can play that song..........................­......CHANGE THE FCKIN TITLE

[guitarjunkie2009]

actually anyone who is a true hendrix and blues fan will know that when you play voodoo child in the key of E it is called Voodoo Chile. usually it will also say (slight return) at the end too.

this version of the song was made popular by SVR god of blues guitar.

[chapie1987]

nice comment (because of the good info), I was actually wondering a while ago what the difference was.

i just don't understand what this has to do with my comment.....I was attacking the uploader on the fact that it's not a lesson, but just a cover of him and so he should remove the 'lesson' part of the title....it's misleading

did you hit the wrong button? and maybe just wanted to make a comment on the video?

[davec3487]

Vocals are not up to par.

[StrumTheStrings]

Wait, it's "Highway Chile" and "Voodoo Child". Hehe. But who cares, great playing.

[unsavourycharacter]

Dude, same thing! When hendrix said "chile" he meant "child" chile is just a different way of caying child. like , "Come here chile" Say child and dont pronounce the D.

[juninhojuninho07]

lesson?

[cheeseman99199]

other than it not being a lesson , ur actually a great guitarist

[AXmichigan]

agreed

vocals..

eh

yea

[cheeseman99199]

if u gunna put guitar lesson in the title , try to let the people learn something instead of just playing the song

[NakturnalX]

good job man, song was good, practice on the vocals more. I can tell you only hear the guitar when you listen to the song.

[loganlee26]

omg! i learned so much!!!!

.....what he fuck is this???

[2121venom2121]

not very accurate.. and even tho im right im still gonna get a bunch of thumbs down lol. people are gonna say OMG STFU BUT IT SOUNDS GOOD WHY DONT YOU PUT A VIDEO UP etc etc..

[bubmobile]

Let's see you play then, fagget!

[2121venom2121]

nice spelling retard.

[bubmobile]

What??? I spelt it perfectly, Dumbass! Ps ... It was a joke, when I said lets you play XP 'Cause you said people were gonna flame you.

[2121venom2121]

wow keep digging that hole retard. its spelled with an OT at the end. now please stop trying to sound remotely intelligent.

[bubmobile]

Plus, I said it was a joke, when i said "lets see you play fagget.". and, Oh shit, You are right XP I looked it up last time and it said it was spelt fagget, and my bro said it was spelt that way too... Sorry XP - But my spelling was not the whole point of it... Keep that in mind, Don't et caught up on the little details so much.

[2121venom2121]

looked it up last time? obviously didnt do such a good job at it. so hows it feel to have a stupid brother? and more importantly how does it feel to be even more stupid than he is?

[mikese93]

you must have been playing for a long time

[loganlee26]

lesson?

lol

[TABWISH]

Great lesson and Great cover..If you can't follow what he's doing with his fingers and you have no hearing, you suck and out of luck...thank U riff1 from NYC

[Zorinja]

nice playing, but this isn't really a lesson so much as a cover

[julianfx]

please don f'in sing dude!

kthnx

[SPFrobber]

I love hom Jimi came on quiet and trippy then fuckin blows your ears out

hearing this song the first time on acid was the baddest five minutes of my life

[LinkBulletBill]

Voodoo Chile? Wtf? Look there's Voodoo Child (Slight Return) and his other song Voodoo Chile... Search up Voodoo Chile on youtube, it's a blues-blues song. Voodoo Child (Slight Return) is this song...

[slbiggs36]

Hendrix doubled the melody notes on the guitar as he sang them! This is the EASY GUITAR version.

[gerdoyle]

this is a lesson as it's a close-up on the neck and what he is doing... but it's a bad lesson as we don't see what he is doing all the time..

Nice playing though

[SlyATV]

uhmm....kid that wasnt a lesson..........

but within saying that.....i did pick a part that i didnt know how to do

Thanks kid.......nice playing......and thats a great guitar...i have the exact same 1

[zappagillan]

good job dude... is not a lesson of course but who cares anyway... comments, funny shit...

[GODSMASHERXL]

how the fuck is this a lesson asshole!

[stevieb6966]

it helps to see how its played along with readin the tab,helpd me a bit anyway

[jessemcalicat1]

excellent work

[ubersoldat47]

guitar-good.

voice- OMFG

[Divorax]

awesome!! Sub, rate + favorite :D

[pichardo25]

duudde yoouurr aarree aawweessoommee but this is not a lesson

[Guitarguykiddude]

Thats true but its a populair song and if people want to learn to play they often go to Youtube and click all vids that say lesson and have to do with the song the want to learn1!!

XD

[kajiki89]

Its a lesson in owning us... lol good stuff friend.

[slashy02]

yeah but he forgot some of the basic licks that are really needed in this song

[kajiki89]

I see what you mean, I like improvise like this gent is doing...

[stlouieslim]

Good playing , a very simplified version of a classic.

[kitarristaxsempre83]

good!!!!!!

[HabboMartin]

you were good, but... LESSON? You can call it selfish lessons... you just want to show how you are, not give us the lessons. p-s out.

[neogeoriffic]

Awesome "performance"... terrible "lesson"

[wv838]

nice rendition bud - thanks :)

[custom24prs]

Should be labeled an improvised jam, not a lesson. It's not bad playing, but it's a far cry from the original.

[Aranadar]

hey man can you make a guitar lesson for this song thew way you play it? looks so easy. please

[Olinolan190]

Sorry to burst a bubble, but i found out that your intro is wrong. I should have a video on the intro soon.

[leilani11a]

dude thts not really a lesson is it... a lesson is where yuu go through it eling us what yuur doing

[kaskdal]

really good bro keep it up

[jdelao85301]

you suck!!!!!!!!!!!!

[thesopranostony]

then you post a video doing this better you fucking prick

[laereus]

riffeo I really was underemphatic if that's a word, this lesson is first rate, super good material, thank you, I've use several of your lessons, solid playing.

[dungeonmaster29]

fuck you fuck you you fucking suck, you can't sing nor play the guitar dickhead! I'm gonna kick your ass one of these days, and if I don't meet you no more in this world, I'll kill you in the next one and don't be gay.

[haloguru101]

some one has a little to much hate just by the off chance, are you a nazi?

[intheshapeofhuman]

shit

[supermaurox222]

don't use the natural minor scale notes on that song, they just don't fit.

[laereus]

THIS is the bEST version of this anywhere,

it's so beautiful, I am studying this version

because he's so loose, the action on his strings is perfect, the whole thing is all greasy and he is not overly serious it's so easy to assimilate the song using this "lesson," I sure find it fun this version is okay and now I know the words.

[mattroger06]

this not lesso

[rocknroolskool]

dude it voodo CHILD by jimmi hendric voodo chile is the remade blues version by steve ray

[FenderMan88888888]

1)its Jimi Hendrix not jimmi hendric

2) voodoo chile is an evolved version of Catfish Blues it was recorded after Jimi played a blues club where everyone was just jamming

3) Voodoo Child ( Slight Return ) is this song.

Both songs were on Electric Ladyland

[benno491]

this is no lesson

[amsalema]

youre just playing thats not a lesson

[Paisley29]

This isn't Voodoo Chile. Why can't anyone get it right on here?

[ACUTEFAILURE]

They don't read.

Wanna put out a disclaimer that says:

GET IT RIGHT

Voodoo Child [Slight return] = Short

Voodoo Chile = 15 minutes long.

[Paisley29]

There is actually a third as well simply titled "Voodoo Chile Blues" that runs for eight minutes and is basically the same as "Voodoo Chile", but without the perfected tone.

[taslan11]

LOL u cant sing... sorry,

[robervarelar]

Your vocal with guitar work is good enought!!!

First class lesson on Youtube for me

[systemabuse123]

ha its wrong

[Yingiling]

You should have played with wah-wah in the bigining, but it was good

[hollycan]

Lesson or no lesson. I'm 65 and was able to suss every note if played over and over. This stuff doesn't fall into your head, even with a teacher in the same room.

You gotta work at it, after all yer gettin' it for free!

[xp29]

Great lesson, just what I needed to get started.

[TeMexican11]

dood u totally shredd on this!

but jimi is spinning in his grave over yur singing

[Olinolan190]

this is very good, although i really needed a lesson vid not this type. but good anyway

[peterpetersbng]

i think SRV sounds better than jimmys...

[abnuridd24]

yo this shit is tight but get real its not a lesson, who can properly learn from this

[sparky0083]

anyone who looks at what his fingers are doing and copies...

[alsline]

Hendrix never played a tune the same way twice, i know i was there. Credit where its due and to the pond life thats knocking this post, put up or shut up. great job man.

[namesean]

WHEN DOES THE LESSON BEGIN. I am so tired of people just singing other peoples songs and calling them LESSONS. This is not a lesson.

Thanks....B U T - N O T H A N K S

[rockabilly92]

i agree. you cant really give a lesson on a hendrix song, due to his individuality, he played the song different everytime. besides, this person is just playin the song. its hardly a lesson. surely someone must agree?

[leocarucci]

excuse me your version is not correct. this is not voodoo child, this is another sogn. i'm sorry...

[elzupelzu]

YOUR BIRTH WASN'T CORRECT!!!!

[whitbycaptain]

ive played guitar for years now and allways loved hendrix, not the best ive seen but dont knock him, its easy sat here, diffrent doing it

[greenguitar28]

how about 'spread the knowledge...' I disagree with you PaulO309.. thanks to riffeo01 for this great tutorial video with nice closeup view of what you are doing. Keep up the great work :)

[animorock]

Ok!

[lessonsink]

I'm just starting to learn this Damn! your F*ckin amazing! man! 5 stars here

[Defector5]

Hey, really good job here. Man I can't believe some of the retarded comments some people left you. Most of them come from weirdos and people who can't play as well as you. What a wonderful way for them to showcase their stupidity.

[wizardeal]

its certainly not a lesson it's close to StevieRay's version, I would call it a cover not a lesson

[gdawgus]

great song

[DarkNowInDachau]

Dude, not even close. This is piss poor.

[Cloud62493]

omg THANK YOU!

[rikhurley]

thats actually quite a nice cover

[PirateCEO]

what are your tone settings?

[viper4525]

too much gain dude

[Dampyy]

åsum

[wa10uru]

nicely dne mate

[partridge668]

u racist cunt

i bet your some white trash redneck

it's about the music not your skin colour
