    Iconic album with this golden hidden track! I bought this record new at Licorice Pizza, North Hollywood, CA January 1980.

    I've been listening to this song my whole life in standard form,..but when Andy slowed it down at the end, I realized what I must do. I will get the Blues Brothers car from the movie, with the huge PA horns on top, and play the slow version far and wide, while driving at top speed. Thank you for providing me this opportunity.

    Do you mind telling me the finger positions are for D and A. I am sorry, but I am not completely sure what strings are being pressing down on or not.

    Dear PGS - is there a possibility You will review Gibson SGJ and LPJ guitars? I would love to hear Andy's opinion on them, played through some nice amps and pedals

  • @BobConanOwen
    @BobConanOwen 8 лет назад +2

    How come on the intro video it looks like you are playing a completely different chord technique on the main riff to the standard power Chord riff you show us? That first technique looks like the way the clash would play it live too..

    • @darkroomxvii
      @darkroomxvii 7 лет назад +1

      BobConanOwen he's doing major triads in the intro which like you said is the accurate way of playing it

    whether you find tab or not , it would be really helpful if you try and learn it simply by the vid. trust me

  • @BCEFilms
    @BCEFilms 8 лет назад

    Sorry for my beginners status here, just starting out learning how to play but most sites seem to have it as D A A yet it seems as though he is playing other chords. Can anyone help me with this, as it is a wonderful song. And I apologize for my amateur questions here.

    • @JohnMartin-ng5ug
      @JohnMartin-ng5ug 8 лет назад

      +BCE Films
      Look at 1:55. That is where the D-A-A riff is taught/played. It is one part of the song, but obviously there are other parts.

    • @skottietilson5925
      @skottietilson5925 8 лет назад +1

      +BCE Films Watch his right hand and which strings he strums. For the the first "A" he doesn't strum the top string or two, then the second "A" he does. This helps distinguis the 2 notes.

    • @BCEFilms
      @BCEFilms 8 лет назад

      +Skottie Tilson thank you so much, that has definitely helped since I've had a bit of a problem with the right strumming as well!

    • @BCEFilms
      @BCEFilms 8 лет назад +1

      +Skottie Tilson Do you mind telling me the finger positions for D and A. My apologies again but I'm not wholly sure on what strings he's pressing down on or not.

    I appreciate the production value of this video, and don't even mind that it is basically a commercial for a reverb pedal (gotta pay the bills somehow) but there's some issues. Biggest one for me; watch yourself playing during the intro part of this video, watch your hands forming the A-D part. First, you don't say at any time that you're playing A and D, but worse, you aren't doing the same barre chords that you do later when you're showing the close ups. It looks more like a modified F at the 3rd fret. It's cool, sounds great, but I wish you had done a close up of that finger positioning.

  • @caoimhinbenjamin9998
    @caoimhinbenjamin9998 11 лет назад

    Gee, are you trying to sell any particular pedal? Is the word "Spring" in it?

  • @DiatonicVids
    @DiatonicVids 11 лет назад

    PGS doesn't carry Gibson guitars to the best of my knowledge. There are other brands the cover a similar niche in the guitar kingdom, but do it at a much better cost-to-quality ratio.

  •  11 лет назад

    Oh yes, You're probably right, but SGJ and LPJ are just stunning, and cost about 1000$ ;]

  • @dannythompson1948
    @dannythompson1948 6 месяцев назад

    Lol im realizing that this is one of those song's that sounds simple, yet nobody can play it. This is the ten video ive seen where its not only played using different chordas, but it also sounds just off enough... does anybody know the correct way to play it?

  • @agaetisbyrjun

  • @SasquachPL
    @SasquachPL 11 лет назад

    Actually, no. "Zaginam czasoprzestrzeń" in a rough translation would mean "I bend time and space". And btw dyslexia is a medical condition which makes it a lot harder to learn to read and write, it's not the inability to do it.

  • @dapperdragon5602
    @dapperdragon5602 8 лет назад

    I just want to learn how to play guitar on it. Not a waste of 77 seconds of the song that I CAME here for. You wouldn't think I already knew the song? And then 29 seconds of random stuff that doesn't help me with learning this song on the guitar at all.

    • @derdudernan
      @derdudernan 8 лет назад +4

      +Westley Trease Jeez Westley, don't get your panties in a twist. In case you missed it he was showing you how to play the song in those 77 seconds. This song is simple enough to just watch the chords he's playing, if you really need instruction beyond that, maybe you need to start with something simpler. Thank you to the uploader for taking time to show how the song is played.

    • @dapperdragon5602
