Thanks to Chris Sharp for the request.
Thanks again for all your nice comments and for watching. That fact that you all are watching is amazing.
I have succumbed to suggestions and now have a 'buy me a coffee' page if one of my videos has helped you out and you want to show it. Thank you very much if it has and you do :)

Great, thanks 👏
I always loved this band. Very strong yet subtle chord progressions and an Argent- like style, on this one.
An absolutely unexpected pleasure to hear this one brought back. If only someone could explain Roger Chapman’s vocal technique 🤯
He’s one of a kind for sure 😊
Electric bleating goat meets Little Richard...they said...strong vibrato I would say...one of a kind...like Rod Stewart or Bon Scott fronting a progressive rock band...
I was enjoying one of the few sunny spring days over here, sipping some Rheingau Riesling, when my smartpohne gave me alarm "new contribution by Guitar Tundra". So I went inside expecting some more Groundhogs. "Family", I had the pleasure to watch them live four or five times, far more than 40 years ago. Sir Dave is one of the few young men to appreciate their impact by giiving an approch to the subtle guitar playning. Nobody could outplay Family live!
Ace, thanks Tirpali 😊
We've all done it...glanced out the window while playing our 'Geeetarrrsss'!!
I have a very distracting bird table 😊
Well done and so nice with a little love in the direction of this great band :)
Thank you Jan 😊🍺
You the man!
Sounds just like it. Charlie Whitney was a great guitarist, probably severely underrated.
I think so too - there’s so much personality and character in his playing. Thank you 🙏
Brilliant! Thank you for demystifying this one. It's been on my band's wishlist for about 20 years!
That’s great, I’m very glad it’s useful 😊 thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for contacting me and I am many more will look forward to your tutorial. Jon
I'm just going through a Family revisit. Love your interpretation of this. There may be no 'right' way to play it. Apart from the overdubs on the original, it is very likely Whitney never played it exactly the same way every time. Many thanks.
Thank you Neil, that's good to hear :)
Bunked off school, bought Music in a doll''s house in a great wee record shop in Smithfield market, Belfast, probably 1987. Still remember playing it on the old man's record player for the first time. Happy days.
Anybody know what happened Mc Phee's scratchplate on the cover of black diamond and why it isn't there?
I'd never noticed that before to be honest
I’m over the moon with the groundhogs videos, my interpretation over the years has been in the wrong key or not the right chords, this certainly sheds more light on the darkest guitar player I’ve heard 😁
That darkness is one of the things that sets him apart I think
@@theguitartundra A few artists that inspired me in the 70s maybe you could do some tutorials on. Captain Beefheart, John Martin, Peter Green, Bebop Deluxe, Edgar Broughton Band, Alex Harvey Band, Jethro Tull, Wishbone Ash, Gentle Giant, Gong, Steve Hillage, Man, Focus, Floyd, lsley Brothers, Hendrix, Deep Purple, Sabbath, Santana, Humble Pie, Blodwyn Pig, Amon duul, Zeppelin, Zappa, Robin Trower, just a few for now. 😁😁😁😁👍👍👍
@@paulmullins8425 ha! Brilliant, some of my favourites are listed in that lot 😊
I’ve got a request Devils answer atomic rooster l love some of John de canns playing always
Loved this family track cheers
Thank you 🙏 - I’ll have a listen to the Rooster track, thank you 😊
One of my all time favourite songs. Great tuition video. Thanks
Thank you 🙏😊
I spoke to Jeff Whitehorn and Chappo about this song, as I'd been trying to play it for years. They told me Charlie Whitney had put at least four overdubs on it, so I'd need five guitarists to play it as the record.
It’d be great to be able to hear all those separated
@@theguitartundra You can kind-of separate them to a degree by just panning the stereo to side or the other, but even then they are not easy to distinguish individually - particularly as the tone is almost identical on all the guitar tracks. Apparently Charlie Whitney was very keen on adding guitar overdubs!
Thank you so much Dave, RUclips suggested this one, and I realised that despite searching nobody had ever done a lesson on this. Hope ypu enjoyed learning this one as I did watching and listening to it.
I did indeed 😊 thank you 🙏
Nice one Dave, love it.
Thanks for this, Mr. Tundra. I saw Family many times, as they invariably had the opening slot for Traffic or somebody at the Rainbow or Roundhouse, and Burlesque stood out. I’m going to practice that Ry Cooder-esque lick and combine it with Cooder’s Honky Tonk Woman opening - and drive myself batty. Thank you!
Thank you very much 😊 - I’m jealous that you got to experience all of that !
Love it!
Saw Family 7th September 1973 at Newcastle City Hall on their farewell tour. One of the best gigs I have seen.
People speak so highly of their shows .... I’m jealous 😊
@@theguitartundra what we need is a time machine. Early Groundhogs and the Velvet Underground would be on my list.
@@russellurwin1374 that would be fun 😊 are there any other Velvet Underground tunes that would be good to look at ?
@@theguitartundra From Lou Reeds solo album Coney Island Baby is Charlie's Girl a guitar and rhythm gem. Going back to There she goes again I have tried singing along while I play, do you think his starting note 'There' is an A. Lou Reeds voice is so thick it's difficult to gauge
@@russellurwin1374 I’ll have a listen in the morn 😊🥸
Fab! Although I think the third chord in the bridge rundown is D (rather than F#), so it's A (R-o-o-o-llin'…), G (Tu-u-mblin'…) DDDD, FFFF, A. But big thanks for working the rest of it out for me!
Cool, thanks - I’ll have a look 👀😊
Loved this as I mentioned on your later update. Request: I have long admired the Blockheads as a band, particularly the subtle guitar arrangements of Chas Jankel. Fancy having a go at Billericay Dickie or Clever Trevor?
Surely, I’d love to - time has been a pain of late, but I shall put them on the list 😊
Come on mate, some of us need a bit more help. It wwould be sso good if you could take us through each part as i really love this song and would love to play it. Its a real classic and tons of people would be so grateful. Jon
You’re right, I just watched it - a pretty terrible video. I’ll try and do a part two at some point and slow it right down.
Why does he suddenly look out of the window? That is weird!
If Peter Gabriel had taught guitar, this is close to what it would have looked like :-).
Thank you Jomo 🙏
Please can you have a go at the chords of
Hi Al, did the end get chopped off of your comment ?
