Felder & Walsh also composed one of the most epic guitar solos in rock music history. As I recall it starts at 4 minutes & 20 seconds into the original studio version and is a bit over two minutes long. Henley may legally have full rights to the song, but the best parts, the chord progression and the epic outro solo, were all Don Felder and Felder & Walsh respectively. It’s sad that the truly notable creative forces behind the song have no say.

They're out there. For electrics, Danelectro makes some good ones for the price. Unfortunately, many others realized this and have been snatching the humbucker models up. Eastwood has some but I've yet to try one.
0:43 I used "Over The Hills" intro to test guitars back when I worked in a shop. I found that opening riff to be a good way to pick out playability issues. Even better, also I learned it upside-down. Being left-handed and most customers being righties, I'd throw them for a loop when I'd demo my work to them by flipping their own guitar over and laying into it. =^-^=
Rick is the reason I will never listen to the Eagles or anyone like that by choice. Rick seems like a straight up, honest guy that his rants become that much more convincing
After reading Don Felders book, i can definitely agree Don Henley is a selfish ass hole. Dude treated the other eagles like sidemen and wanted all the money
@@marcofearg9956 what do you mean by that? It's a riff which is played on a 12 string in the studio version, and Alex Turner plays it on a 12 string live.

However, one can never go wrong playing one of Alex's guitar riffs, unless you just plain suck !!

Really blurring the lines between a riff and a chord progression here, but great list! I've see some Eagles songs get used in lists by not mentioning who it is on screen or vocally. Maybe try that next time?
It’s a good idea, and it would probably help, but I get the feeling that with Hotel California specifically you’re orobably screwed anyway. Since it’s their number one song, and he probably wanted to play it properly, not just strum it or something.
That was spectacular! The Eastwood 12 sounds amazing - certainly one of the best electrics I've heard. Your playing was was great as was the camera work. You made playing the 12-string look easy, something difficult to do. Thanks

I noticed that this particular video doesn't go on and on for once, and be over 15 minutes. Straight to the point, and showcases 12 awesome riffs. Another video can be more of a discussion of sorts, and gives more info of what makes the riff sound good or even just the 12 string guitar.
Roger Hodgson from Supertramp has written a lot of great 12 string guitar riffs and songs. Give a Little Bit and Even in the Quietest Moments are two *great* examples!
Oh yeah. How could a top twelve string guitar list not include anything by Supertramp? Unless it's a copyright thing and he already dunked on the Eagles for that reason.
@@SameAsAnyOtherStranger Ah, I didn't think about that. That could be a reason. Anyways, definitely Supertramp had written a LOT of great and, in my opinion, severely underappreciated 12 string guitar songs.
Not actually famous as a 12-string riff, but everytime I hear upper octave harmony whether it's from an actual 12 string or effect pedal like whammy I always think about Radiohead's My Iron Lung

Don Henley and Glenn Frey made careers off the backs of far more talented and creative musicians, but postured themselves to be the big dogs of the Eagles.
I somewhat disagree. Henley was a jerk, but Don and Glenn did most of the song writing. The rest of the guys were great, just were in the shadows a bit because of that.
Thanks for highlighting the second section of Stairway to Heaven. I’ve always thought it is the best part of that song! BTW, A nice English Horn patch is the best thing to use for vocals in demonstrations like this.

Rick Beato often mentions the Eagles as being rabid RUclips blockers, and he says it is usually not the bands, but the record companies that do the blocking.

He totally missed it without including The Byrds sound , they put the 12 string electric on the map !
As someone who was born in the late '60s, you just played my entire life. Joys of tears my friend. If we could only relive. Thank you Tyler!
Funny that the 60 were 60 years ago 3 years ago, how are you Doing?
I was kinda surprised neither "Mr. Tambourine Man" or "Turn, Turn, Turn" by The Byrds didn't make the list.
It Won't Be Wrong--McGuinn's best solo IMHO.
You needed The BYRDS! They are 12 string Riffs identified which everyone copied!!!
And I would have added -- "Eight Miles High" as well. McGwinn was a monster on the 12 strong. To leave his work unacknowledged is really insulting.
George Harrison Played a Rickenbacker 12 String, McGuinn saw what it was in the movie, A Hard Days Night and bought his soon after.

It will die with the radio.

Jovial Audio hell yeah ! It’s a shame that no one talks about early genesis in these kinds of videos
Supper's ready as well ;)
I was gonna ask if you made this one to see how many claims you could get on purpose, but you answered that question towards the end. I'm glad you dont care, and actually stand your ground for the sake of music. Right on bro. Damn the man. Nice work. Cool guitar, by the way.
1 view, 20 likes, and youtube is saying 12 comments even though i can only see 2. Gotta love being early
Nice list, I can add Look Through Any Window by the Hollies, that riff is amazing
Do I Wanna Know by The Arctic Monkeys is not only one of the greatest 12 string riffs but one of the greatest riffs of all time
Thank you for putting I Stay Away by AIC. Song is so good!
I find the lack of Gordon Lightfoot immensely disturbing.
Levon Mylz - You get a big ol 👍🏻
I find someone finding the lack of Gordon Lightfoot immensely disturbing immensely disturbing
And I find the lack of Roger McGuinn disturbing, and Leo Kotke
Nice I think I may get a 12 string Thanks for the vid
i was wondering "Haven't i seen this video before!?"
and then i remembered, ah yes The Eagles are the biggest blockers on youtube and of course they took the video down for playing Hotel California
eagles have only been in it for the money;
Bro, life by the drop definitely should’ve been on this list! Still a great list though! Love your work man!
