Great version! Thanks for posting. Keith Richards is playing the song in open G tuning, but it can be played in standard guitar tuning too e.g. cover version at: loosecovers.blogspot.com. This is easier when playing live (saves having to retune between songs at gigs, or carrying a second guitar ...

Fantastic live version! Re comments below: yes, the original song is indeed played by Keith Richards in open G tuning, but it can be played in standard tuning too as in cover version of Honky Tonk Women at: loosecovers.blogspot.com. This is easier when playing live (saves having to retune guit...

@Hoodrio Thanks very much for the quick reply. I use a Zoom G2.1u (it has an expression pedal built in) as part of a rig with other pedals for gigging and practice, and we do a few Stones songs so I'll experiment along those lines you indicate. Thanks again.

Nice clip! Keith's powerful chords are everywhere, but especially on Honky Tonk Women. This was released on 4 July 1969. Apollo 11 made the first ever manned landing on the moon 16 days later on 20 July 1969. What a month for human achievement! See a cover of Honky Tonk Women at: loosecovers.bl...

Great song! Honky Tonk Women was released on 4 July 1969. Apollo 11 made the first ever manned landing on the moon 16 days later on 20 July 1969. What a month for human achievement! See a cover version at: loosecovers.blogspot.com

Great song. Honky Tonk Women was released on 4 July 1969. Apollo 11 made the first ever manned landing on the moon 16 days later on 20 July 1969. What a month for human achievement! See a cover version at: loosecovers.blogspot.com

Honky Tonk Women was released on 4 July 1969. Apollo 11 made the first ever manned landing on the moon 16 days later on 20 July 1969. What a month for human achievement! See a cover version of Honky Tonk Women on our channel and at: loosecovers.blogspot.com

Great live version, and just a few months after the song was released, on 4 July 1969. The Stones used to play it in open G tuning, but it's OK in standard tuning too, e.g. The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women at: loosecovers.blogspot.com

Fantastic song! Yes, the original is in open G tuning, but it can be played in standard tuning too, e.g. The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women at: loosecovers.blogspot.com

Interesting early take - getting pretty close to the 4 July 1969 single-release version! Thanks. Where did you find it? A truly iconic song, since covered by Bruce Springsteen, Free, Tina Turner, Prince, AC/DC, Joe Cocker, The Pogues, Humble Pie, Taj Mahal, McFly(!), Tom Jones (!), and by us - Th...

Great version! Check out The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women on YouTube or at loosecovers.blogspot dot com

Great lesson: many thanks! Though Keith plays it with open G tuning, it can be played in standard version too (easier in a gig setting, to avoid switching tuning or guitars between songs), e.g. as we do for The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women on YouTube or at loosecovers.blogspot dot com

Never knew AC/DC did it! Raucous version! Check out The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women on YouTube or at loosecovers.blogspot dot com

Such a great song! Check out The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women on YouTube or at loosecovers.blogspot dot com

Yes, Keith plays the original in open G tuning, but this lesson is useful as the song can be played in standard tuning too, e.g. our The Loose Covers studio version of Honky Tonk Women on YouTube, or at loosecovers.blogspot dot com.

A very dfferent version - but good! Check out The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women on YouTube or at loosecovers.blogspot dot com

Interesting acoustic version! Check out The Loose Covers version of Honky Tonk Women on YouTube, or at: loosecovers.blogspot dot com

Great live version! With ref to comments below, yes, no doubt that Keith Richards is a brilliant rhythm guitarist (and works well with both Taylor or Wood on lead). He also writes most of the Stones songs with Mick Jagger – including the classic Honky Tonk Women. Cover of this song at loosecov...

Great live version - and the title is very definitely Honky Tonk WomEn (cf below): see picture of the vinyl single and cover in our video below. An original Mick Jagger - Keith Richards song (words and music), it came out in 1969 on the DECCA label. Although the Stones are a British band, the mu...

Yes, this is an original Mick Jagger - Keith Richards song: they did the words and music. It came out on vinyl in 1969 on the DECCA label. Althogh the Stones are a British band, the music was published by ABKCO MUSIC, INC. in New York.

@antonis0035tc Yes, it's a great riff. It's from Led Zeppelin's 'Bring it on home'. The song starts as a slow blues, then explodes into that riff at 1:44. If you like Old School blues-rock riffs check out our version of Dire Straits - Money for Nothing at loosecovers.blogspot.com

One of my favourites, from a great album! We discovered I Muvrini during numerous holidays in Corsica from 1998 onwards. We were lucky enough to see them live in 2000 in Sartene, in Cargese in 2003; Folelli in 2005 and Paris in 2010! Excellent! That mix of great voices and superb playing inspired...

A beautiful song! We discovered Giramondu, Massimu Merlandi and Stephane Casalta et al during numerous holidays in Corsica from 1998 onwards. We were lucky enough to see Giramondu live in 2000 in Propriano, and a different set-up of the band in Vico in 2003! Absolutely brilliant! So sad that Gira...

No censorship. We simply play the shorter 7" single version (as part of a 26-song 'old school' set) which had been published by Chariscourt/EMI (the record company), and also featured in the official transcript of The Very Best of Dire Straits. First Amendment is not relevant in the...

Lots of talk about versions of this song here. It would have been good if GH3 had made it clearer that Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac actually wrote this song 1968. This later 1970 Santana-based version is great too, though! Which is best? Both good. BTW, check out our kinda hybrid version of this...

Actually, all rights go to Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac who wrote this song. This later Santana version is great too, though! Which is best? Check out our kinda hybrid Loose Covers version of this classic song on: loosecovers.blogspot.com

Viva Lila! Great version! Check out, too, our hybrid Loose Covers version of this Peter Green (later Santana) classic song on: loosecovers.blogspot.com

An absolute classic song from Peter Green from 1968, and a great smooth guitar sound here! Great to see him back. Thanks for the post. The blues band Loose Covers has done a kind of hybrid version of Black Magic Woman at:

An absolute classic song from Peter Green in the late 1960s, and a very different live and funky sound here! Thanks for the post. Can't decide whether I like the Fleetwood Mac or Santana version better, and between live or studio. The blues band Loose Covers has done a kind of hybrid version of B...
