Love these old lessons. The funny thing about Sabbath, its not the classics like Iron Man and War pigs and Paranoid that make them great. Its the hidden gems such as Hole in the Sky, the Writ, Into the Void, Rat Salad etc...that make them arguably the Greatest Band of all time. Let alone the most influential. Thanks again, Mike
Hey thanks for the support my friend. KEEP ROCKIN'
Isn't this supposed to be C# tuning?
I mean the classics are still bloody good
I totally agree. I was lucky enough to see Sabbath in 78 Never Say Die tour with Van Halen opening. It was my first concert.
Another favorite is Symptom of the Universe.
What a great sounding riff! Tommy Iommi hit it out of the park when he came up with that. It's even cooler combined with Geezer Butlers bass line. First time I ever heard the song that riff grabbed immediately!!!
Right on man
l'll give you credit for playing this amazing song by Black Sabbath and it sounds awesome, but the tuning for the song is actually in C# Standard.
Same key f# though. You're right but he still manages to play the right chords
thanks for the credit
“A song not a lot of people have heard...”
Those people don’t know shit man
Great song
I never stop learning, Wayne. Mike has a lot to offer. Read my latest response to him, there was no disrespect meant, I tried to make that clear. Not so much an interpretation as transposing to 440, which is cool. But anyone watching iommi play it may wonder why he plays it with different fingerings/position, and the dropped tuning accounts for that. I appreciate anyone offering something contructive on the net, no fight from me.
This is different than how Toni plays it, because he tunes down 3 semitones on tens, so the strings are easy to play and bend so the prosthetics on his middle and ring finger wouldn't come off. However this dude knows the tune and these are the right notes and his version kicks ass
Thanks homie
Back in the day, I'd have asked for tabs, but after enough RUclips and self-teaching, I'm happy to say I got all of that instantly. Great explanation/lesson, and thanks for posting.
I watched this and thought "Oh shit, I taught myself this song by ear 25 years ago but I've been playing it wrong all this time! Noooo! I suuuuck!" Then I went and found a video of Sabbath playing it live in 1975 and watched Iommi's hands. Nope, I had it right all along. Whew.
Yeah, this version is in E standard, and Tony played in C# standard. Sounds about right, just not the way Tony played it.
Yeah if you listen closely the guitar part that he is playing is actually the base riff in the original song. Although doing the bass riff on the guitar is heavy AF. And fun to play
I believe that record was in c#
Just easier to play in standard lol
I can play it now! Thanks Mike!
AWESOME THATS WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR.
awesome
thanks man
stewieiommi,
thanks for posting back-love what Mike does for us and maybe jumped the gun to
defend him. I may need to chill a bit, hope you understand!
thanks
wayne
Hello Mike.
Thanks for your great videos. I like your enthusiasm. About Hole In The Sky, on videos, one can see that Iommi plays it differently. I think becaus he's tuned three semitones down. Iommi always tries to play the simplest way. For exemple he always uses a lot of open strings. I had a teacher who told me : avoid open strings ! Iommi does the opposit. I think it's a good approach. When playing Black Sabbath, always try open strings! hello to the cats.
thanks stewie.much love bro
God that's such a badass song!!!
Oh, I forgot to mention this in my last comment. Can you please do a tutorial on how to play fairies wear boots, fade to black, and sabbra cadabra?
That's a nice old Sabbath tone.
THANKS MAN
Great lesson,Mike! Im gonna try it half step down tuning
My neighbours are gonna live this at 5am haha.
I loved the part at 3:01
Awesome! My favorite song is Snow Blind
+Jaw Tooth yeah that's a killer song.
So heavy, Thanks Mike!
Wow mate, you've got serious skill on those fingers.
That song is actually tuned all the way down to C#and is played in A' but thank you and you shred bro
i like the heavy cool groove, i want my guitar to sound like that for sure
Drop tuning brother
Your tone reminds me of the Volume 4 album. 1st album that I ever heard. I never heard anything like that. Dark and ominous.
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET
Youre the best mike
Hey thanks
@@rockingguitarlessons of course.Sometimes trying to find good tutorials is so frustrating.Its refreshing to find good,clear videos like this.
Great lesson. Thanx Mike!!!
Very welcome 😁
thanks mike
Can u please do a under the sun lesson
thanks mike man your the bomb been tryin to learn this song for a while finally learned it thanks again
Very welcome
You do lessons for the best riffs known to man 🎸🔥👌🏻
Thanks man
Love*
Thanks for the lesson. You made it pretty easy. I found you can either do 2 and 4 on the D string or 3 and 5. It’s more sinister with 2 and 4 though.
Every time I watch your videos, I regret giving up my Dual Rectifier. Someday, I'll own another one. My original one had its tubes go, so I replaced them with old JVC tubes my buddy found and it was even more bad ass. Only thing stopping me from getting one is coming up with 3 grand.
Get an EVH5150 and crush the Dual Rectifier. Death Metal is never wrong.
Have you ever even listened to the song?
no bro I just randomly guessed that it went like this.cheers
hehe-
;)
Cool version. I like it. Chorus is different than the album, however. It would be nice to learn how the album version goes.
Yeah, this version is just played differently all together. I took one look at the hand position and knew this wasn't going to be the way Tony plays it. He played in C# standard, not E standard tuning. It mostly sounds about right, it's just not the way Tony plays it; which is fine, and helps people -who don't want to tune down- to learn it.
Once again you da man Mike...thanks for teaching us this classic Sabbath riff !!!
Another classic sorely missing from YT is "A Girl Like You" - Smithereens...how nobody's taught this one is beyond me.
Yeah that's a killer tune
Hey Mike, Love your lessons my friend!
You are truly a great teacher and guitarist!
When you got the time could you please make a video of Megalomania from Black Sabbath? That would be really awesome!
Keep on rocking my friend! Greetings from Germany
GREAT SONG ILL CHECK INTO THAT..GREETINGS FROM USA..KEEP ROCKIN'
yo what up man i know I ask alot from u but this time u asked for it black sabbath is my fav band and it looks like you do alot of sabbath so whenever u get the time in your busy schedule could u do into the void but if its drop tuning then nevermind my walmart tuner wont do drop tuning cept drop d tuning all the stings to match that one
not to dis the disser or non-disser or whatever he is :
this is Mr. Gross's "interpretation of the song"
why are you scoping out the lesson if you already gots it down??!!
thanks for what you do Mike-fight the good fight!!!!!!!!
How about the chorus?
Thanks for making the video could you make one showing how to play tomorrows dream or st. Vitus Dance or Sabbra Cadabra all of those by Black Sabbath
I would call this a good alternative way to play that song.
ive got it
Hi Mike. Have you ever tried playing this with the guitar tuned to C#? It's a lot easier to flow the main riff.
Yes!!
how do u play the long outtro jam portion of symptom of the universe?
hi mike do you learn tunes by ear?
Hey Mike, great lessons. I wanna know if you can do a lesson about scales and arpeggios, at about 120-140 bpm. I'm going to be attending Musicians Institute this coming April and I need to learn scales and arpeggios, hopefully you can and thanks :-)
yupyup
fret markers are nice for lessons.
+rock lives so would ten guitars set up in alternate tunings. You work with what you got in life. KEEP ROCKIN'
I need to work on them and wanted expert advice, I know LOTS of rhythm
i have subscribed to you, i was wondering if u could do solos in ur lessons? i think there is a third riff in this song before the solo. I have a request, if you could do lord of this world or hand of doom that would be great
Awesome dude you use for into the void by sabbath or Jacobs ladder by rush purleassssssssse
Love your videos can you do crazy train by ozzy
I have it already
Don't Start (Too late) lesson please!
Back in the early 80's when I had my band together, I think back then I'd figured out the entire Sabbath Catalog EXCEPT for SABBATOGE, (which is to me, their best album of all time.)... [and back in those days there weren't any "tabs", or you tube, I used to have to slow down the album with my thumb, and figure out the bass lines, to then figure out the rhythm chords, alotta patience, and many hours spent figuring out the songs of the greatest rock band that ever lived!!! Until Ronny Almost ruined it, Thank god for Tony's riffs, and Tony Martin, and Ian After that... Thanks for Hole I.T.Sky, but could you also do the same for Megalomania, & The Writ? Do you think there is any other Classic rock Song with as many guitar changes as in that one? [Tony at his Zenith, if you ask me] Talk about an overlooked/under-rated album!!!
Ey man noice vid, if ur still posting can u show the rest to Institutionalised, you showcased 2 riffs but only did the tutorial for the first
OH ILL ALWAYS BE POSTING LESSONS.I DID A LESSON ON THE PARTS MY SUBSCRIBER REQUESTED.KEEP ROCKIN'
Cool thanks man, you have so many vids lol
I've got a song suggestion how about some Gallery of suicide by cannibal corpse...I wanna learn that song 😈
more sabbath mike...please
Damm. try to play "PROWLER''By Iron Maiden
yer welcome my brutha from anutha
Isn’t this song in C# standard?
great job, but the guitar is supposed to be tuned down 1 1/2 steps (C# Standard), and it is played in the key of A. I made the same mistake for years. Keep up the good work tho man!!
KEEP ROCKIN'
INDEED
Sympa, mais je ne pense pas que ce titre se joue ainsi.
Tasty Fucking Riff
Like most CoC songs lol \m/ and everyone else lol
I thought I had a fucked cd because It would always end so abruptly. But I've learned it now and I love. I
At last a different song that iron man i can learn.this one on.bass
Great playing and I'm aware that you in a different tuning to Iommi but the chorus is incorrect. Still sounds good though.
ive never made a mistake..ever in my lfe.........;)
@@rockingguitarlessons me neither.......haha
maybe.im not sure yet.i have to feed my cats first
go to my channel search and type in shred riffs or sweep picking.....that should be right up your alley mega
Mike can you redo this in C Standard Like its supposed to be. This doesn't sound right at all
Sorry man I'm way too swamped with work at the moment. If you think that's the tuning just switch up the tuning. I usually have these tuning spot on
Show us Aerosmith - No Surprise.
THATS A GOODN
Mike, I'm a beginner. Just starting to play electric. This kid looks like he's playing C5/D5 D5/C5 as the power chords at the end of that first riff. Is that wrong?
ruclips.net/video/JhHt7W1x3Os/видео.html
I have to say, for a kid his tone and sound is very Iommi like. He is playing an SG or Epi version of sg so I guess that's a good start.
I've seen other covers playing it this way too, although not as well.
By the way, you are awesome - I've learned 2 songs from you so far.
I watch all these videos of Hole in the Sky covers, and alot of these dudes are clearly talented players, like this guy. But what really, REALLY bugs me, is in the chorus where they are stroke-bending and holding, they should be stroke-stroke-bending... there are TWO strokes in there if you listen to all versions by Black Sabbath and even pantera's cover, and should be striking both D & G not just D. And another thing, they should be bridging all strings, E included on fret 5 during the bending, and lifting their finger off A with finger still on E for the lower open chord between bends.

cant win em all bro-such is life..now-LETTUCE ROCK!!!
+Kurtis McLeod Make your own video if u have nuts
pussy
you putz.
He uses a weird tuning on this song
How you doing Mike? Man you talk fast or maybe I'm slow.
Good man and yes you are slow. It has to be :)
Hey Mike, why are your videos showing Arabic language in the middle of the screen?!?!?!🤔🤘
Sit on a coach sometimes. :P
Huh?
This is so NOT THE WAY THIS IS PLAYED. it's supposed to be in C# tuning, not E standard bro.
Lol 🤣
So much unnecessary fret board movement.
Lol um. Maybe so but these gtr players don't always use the easiest convenient way of playing their tunes ... Look at iron man for example.Iommi uses 10 frets to play one of the biggest hooks in metal when he could have used about 5 frets. It is what it is broh
Nice
;)
