You obviously paid attention more to the recording. I applaud you for that. If you are interested and this relates to the song, Wally Bryson of the Raspberries learned how to do the bridge part for The Kids Are Alright from Pete Townshend showing him. He used the same chord shape for the intro to Go All The Way, and not many ppl know how he did it. (x 0 7 9 10 9). If you're interested in the intro of Go All the Way, he flattens his pink for the suspended 4th note. The second chord he plays is (x 0 0 11 10 10). Townshend is such a fantastic musician, as well as Bryson.
Solid reminder of what a great song this is with a well-driven guitar part beautifully performed here. Lovely guitar w/ a more tobacco sunburst colouring (less red than GHv64).
Thanks! I’ve played Real Me a lot on my Gretsch (Pete used his 6120). I’ll consider a cover of it, although I’m always hesitant because I have a different gretsch haha
The older records can be muddy. Nice to have your interpretation. Could you fix the drum part from the old 'Psychotic Reaction' recording? It's way out of the pocket.
Really nice- great tone on your 360/12. I've got a '67 360/12 (McGuinn style), but need a jangle box to get that ring. Are you using a compressor to get that beautiful sustain?
@@sampopkin Thanks! ObviousIy didn't read the description! What speakers are you using? I like how you use the volume knob. It's a lost art. I have been listening to the first Who LP a lot lately and wondering if Pete used the guitar volume on the recording. You show here that it can be done.
Thanks for watching! I’m not a big fan of compressors but it definitely helps the rickenbacker especially to get those McGuinn tones. Pete was just using his Blonde Bassman with the volume way up
The 12 String Rick has got to be the instrument that Pete played on the original recording, right? All of the live videos I can find, Pete strums a Strat with Roger playing an acoustic. It doesn’t sound nearly as cool.
@@Edward1312 Reading this makes me grieve for the fun you could have had. It's a real shame someone with authority didn't have a word with the RIC factory people way back at the beginning when the RCI 12 took off, and sold the benefits of offering a wider neck option for those with larger fingers. Had they gone with offering a narrower and a wider neck option on their 6 str guitars and basses it may have made a few extra friends too. Certainly a potentially more expensive way to do business, but on the plus side, it makes you sound like a company that cares about the player's comfort in a professional by offering a little bespoke tailoring. I know they did offer a neck with backwards sloping frets on at least the the little Lennon style one for a while I saw one in a local gtr shop around 1978.
@@ianbartle456 There was a Pete Townsend signature version with a wider neck however it was sold in v small numbers. Ric dont need to change because they always make less numbers than the market demands, so they just stick with what they know and like.
beautiful sound of rickenbacker!
i like it!
My band has been playing this for years but nice to see the subtleties of the guitar parts we’ve been missing! Great job Sam!
Thanks Chip! I remember your band rehearsing this song. Happy New Year!
@@sampopkin This sounds like a Beatles song
awesome. That jingle jangle sound is like heaven.
Finally! Someone who played it right!
Just t played this video 10 times OMG it is so good
Well done, it’s nice to see the actual complexities of the guitar parts

This is one of my favourites The Who's song. Your cover is brillant!
LOVE IT!...Don't change a damn thing!!!!!! LOVE IT!
And gorgeous guitar😍
Thanks!
!! Badass Work my friend keep rocking and have a nice day peace !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope Pete sees so e of your videos. The jacket was a nice touch.
That would be a dream come true haha
Great playing, mate!!! Really great job... keep on rocking!!! ✌️🎸🎶🔥
Holy guacamole. So good.
Jangle Pop is pretty great I think Buddy Holly with Words Of Love could be one of the earliest renditions of the genre
I love that theory. I’m a big buddy fan. The crickets after he died had some strat jangly songs
@@sampopkin Big fan as well I really wonder how Peggy Sue Got Married would of sounded like in the complete version with Buddy Holly’s help though
@@NitroUnity I’m planning on doing more buddy covers in alternate universe form. Like Everyday but full band rock version
@@sampopkin Yeah that would be very interesting, definitely looking forward to it
My Generation as an album is REALLY GOOD.
Great cover as well!
The most Bealtes-sounding Who song.
That was fantastic !!
Very cool
Love it, Sam!
Fabulous tone!
Amazing Tone/Guitar n Playing! Have you covered The Real Me? That's A Tune Man! Cheers
Thanks! I’ve played Real Me a lot on my Gretsch (Pete used his 6120). I’ll consider a cover of it, although I’m always hesitant because I have a different gretsch haha
Boss makes a good one, mate.
Do My Generation (used by the same Rickenbacker)
That was on his 6 string Rick, but could be interesting!
@@sampopkin yes. But live he used the 12 string
@@Flowering_nights ooo gotcha!
super merci

What about anyway anyhow anywhere?
Doing that one soon!
@@sampopkin Pictures Of Lily?
@@sampopkin Also, Substitute is on an Acoustic guitar and Capo on second fret. ruclips.net/video/-blmxHkdhuk/видео.html
You nailed the tone! What amp are you using?
1965 Fender Bassman

@@danielkroha5440 thanks, they are the original speakers Oxford 12t6’s
Oh, my apologies! Didn't expand your comments...I see that you mentioned the Analogman pedals including the compressor. Thanks for doing that!

Did we have some good music in the mid-sixties, or what?
Jingle-jangle

Yes!
Your low end is a bit boomy - perhaps a little tweak...?
Hate the narrowness of these guitars fretboard, makes playing them far harder than it should . A 12 string needs to have girth.
Lighter gauge strings help
@@sampopkin I had the very same guitar had to get rid of it, couldnt play it.
