Very well done. I have been trying (from time to time) over the last forty-eight years to learn this solo. In five minutes watching you I have finally learned it! Thank you!

@bobplaw1 Search "Ed Sullivan Rolling Stones". There's a better clip up of it now.

@buzzfuzz146 Thanks! I dug it out a little while ago and learned Lady Jane.

Lots of good tunes in there:)

well do you think their is someway you can help maybe please? If you don't that's alright. I just really want to learn how to play this solo and I can't tell your finger placements from the camera angle.

Bar the 9th fret on strings 1234 like an "A" chord, and the pinky bars strings 12 on the 12th fret. Slide that shape down to the 7th fret.

Next shape is like an "F" chord with your index finger on the 5th fret.

Finally slide down to an "E" chord.

The other licks are fairly common blues licks in "E". You shoud be able to get those by ear.

Hope that helps. I pick most of this up the same way (visually). Sometimes the tabs aren't very accurate.
