  • NOTE: The Backing Track is designed as a "tutorial aid" - so the Bass track moves with the changes to help emphasis where the chord changes happen. On the original recording, the Bass stays on A - creating a G/A voicing.

    George was so underrated. I wish they had given him more space with them to contribute a few more things. Great job as always. Another to add to my never ending list of songs to learn

      True - He was sadly overlooked in the Beatles... But hey - ALL THINGS MUST PASS was a monumental LP because of it :-)

      So true! When they broke up he had a treasure trove of songs he'd written that they overlooked. He's an absolute genius and one of the greatest musicians of all time, and just like John we lost him too soon.

      I can understand why George felt the way he did, I mean after all how could he possible get the famous duo of "Lennon & McCartney" to listen to any of his compositions when they were so full of themselves?

    Ok, I have watched this video dozens of times and it just keeps getting better each time. The performance is the best - it captures the emotion and feeling of the song. The fluid, smooth playing style is motivation for me. The tutorial and explanations are outstanding. I am a beginning guitar player so other than working on bits and pieces, this song is a bit out of my reach now. However, as I learn more and progress, this is the go-to video for this song.

    Howard, awhile ago as I was learning how to play this song, from a gui, he was playing the C chord at 1.10 (on your video), he used only his index finger to play the High C, and it made for a very eerie nice sound, try it just for fun , and see how it is, .Anyway, your videos are a complete Bible for my preferate music, Thanks to you

    Very nice lesson. If I could make one small correction to your demo it would be with the bassline. The first 2 chords are actually played with an A as the root tone. (A G/A). very cool. Cheers. Keep ‘em coming!

    • @247GuitarwithHowardHart
      @247GuitarwithHowardHart  3 года назад +2

      You are absolutely correct... After thinking it over, I thought I might post the backing track as well. So I chose to "spot" the bass so to speak - sort of a guide, especially for beginners. I have to say that I love McCartney's bass lines on so many Beatles tracks :-) Thanks so much for watching... and mentioning that.

    I tried doing it your way with a capo and it didn't feel comfy. It's really not difficult to play the lead line on either the 1-2 strings or the 2-3 strings in the appropriate positions. I'm positive that George Harrison did not utilize a capo. Having said that, it is another approach that may work well for some. BTW, I'm playing it on a late reissue Ric 360/12. Thx!!

  • @MarkPMus
    @MarkPMus Год назад

    It doesn’t sound quite right where in the verses you drop down to a “C” shape. You need to drop to the “C” but keep a “D” bass note. I have a piano version in Ab which I presume the capo 7th fret D shape chords sound, and it’s A flat to Gb/Ab bass. I don’t know exactly why the piano version is in Aflat cos the Beatles play in A, as you said in description!

    Great guitar part. But the bass part doesn’t move to the second note “c”
    Shape it continues to play the riff through the verse which gives it the psychedelic feel. But I get this is a guitar lesson not bass.
