I think I speak for a lot of the Zeppelin community when I say you’re one of the best teachers on RUclips when it comes to Led Zeppelin. Personally you’re my favorite man! Keep on rocking dude 🤟
Like so many songs from Led Zeppelin , this takes you on this journey, the key breaks kind of string you along, hypnotized, then it slings you back into the crushing verses and that driving opening riff. Such a dynamic song - truly great songwriting.
@@franksmith7247 thanks for the tip - I just checked it out . I liked it , probably have to listen to it more times to really get into it , but I have to say the recorded original just has that magic with the overdubs etc. - at least to me
Great lesson as usual! Still waiting on that "since I've been loving you", there are some lessons out there, but you're lessons to me are on another level, specially when It comes to Page songs. Keep them coming!
Loads of people have suggested that. I will do it for sure. Just been experimenting with theory stuff prior to this month. I knew I was gonna make it all about IV so I’ve held off. 🙌🏻
I’ve been playing this song off & on for years… but today, after I found your channel, I realized that the little nuances are so important & effective which took my playing to another level….your explanation and overall production are very much appreciated. Thank you. Oh and your hilarious comment about the G6 chord friend had me rolling. 😂
I can never again watch an episode with a history segment about Led Zeppelin without wishing that your wife was reading to us by candlelight from the tub. THE BEST EVER!
Another excellent breakdown and lesson. Another suggestion (as if you don’t have enough) is Tea For One. That song is quite an undertaking and is a great example of using dynamics while overlaying lead on chords. It’s a long one but at least it’s in standard tuning. I, for one, would really enjoy your take on this challenging song!
You're like my secret weapon that I use to impress my guitar teacher... whenever he thinks there's no good lesson online for him to practice that Zeppelin song. I just calm him down and say, 'Teach... Sped has my back covered and yours'. Keep up the Zepp Lessons dude! My guitar teacher looks like Robert Plant and I I want to continue to knock his socks off with the stuff you've taught me!
Haha, what?! That’s so funny. So you and your teacher are both learning from my videos? Or am I just there for guidance when you’re on your own? Either way cool and stoked that you’re getting so much from them.
Love playing up and down the neck against the open strings. Throughout the song it leads to other fun playing around and experimenting. I learned a lot! Very fun lesson from a great teacher...... Thanks Sped!
You’re welcome Bob; that’s one of my favourite things to do when I learn a new technique, move it all around the neck and experiment with it myself. Have fun!
Just found your channel and I must say you are now 1 of my favorite teachers. The way you teach is very easy to follow. Thanks for what you do and I have been playing for over 50 years. Good job, you make it fun.
Hey Sped, Just sending out a hi. 55 yr old in the states. 3.5 yrs into this new hobby called guitar with dreams of becoming a "Rock Star"! But just wanted to say how much I enjoy your lessons and your background content. Keep up the good work. I'll keep practicing and watching. Peace !
Amazing George, hope you’re enjoying the journey. You’re welcome for the content and I’m glad it’s helping you improve. Let me know when you book your first tour, I’m coming. 🤘🏻🔥
Best Led Zeppelin's tutorials on RUclips! With Tabs would be nicer, but not better! great explanations and with the accent in the music and on the how to play! decoding Jimmy Page!!! amazing!!! Thx!!!
Afternoon! Just wanted to say I spent 2 hours refining some zep that I've ignored for a while.... Four sticks.... The Ocean..... Misty Mountain Hop.... And solo to Whole lotta love..... Just all those little tweaks that pagey used to do..... Scrapes. bends, rakes, pull offs, use of vibrato, octaves... Thanks, Monsieur Sped!
I know I've commented on this feed already buddy but I've been going through a bunch of your awesome feeds here the past week or two because I've forgotten a bunch of key elements to these great songs. I'm also finding a crap ton of material I don't even remember learning the first go around too hah, I suppose I've improved some because it's all coming far easier too, certainly struggling a bunch less at the very least. Anyhow, thanks again man, don't ever stop putting these awesome tutorials up, I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels this way either 👍 Tommy~
Greetings from Rio de Janeiro! And I really like your channel and I'm very grateful for your content, we're both big fans of Led Zeppelin, me from Brazil and you from there. And from now on, I will express myself in my native language, to celebrate this virtual meeting of two perfect soulmates separated by geographical distances: Saudações do Rio de Janeiro! Desde que eu comprei este álbum, que por aqui sempre chamavam de Black Dog Album, ( e devo ressaltar que foi o primeiro álbum que comprei na vida com meu próprio dinheiro aos 14 anos) eu tive vontade de aprender esta canção, Four Sticks. Não tive acesso a este maravilhoso livro sobre o Zeppelin que você tem em mãos, e muito do que aprendi do Zeppelin foi tirando as coisas de ouvido. Mas este álbum foi fundamental na minha formação musical e na escolha de meu instrumento principal: a guitarra. E muito do aprendi de Led Zeppelin, aprendi por meio de seu canal. Obrigado, e continue com o bom trabalho.
The thing I have learned most from your videos about playing Page songs is that the picking hand is rhythmic up-down. I know that sounds like "duh" but it's really important. I've read that he wrote most things on acoustic, and it really shows in this song. Try playing this song with all down-strokes and observe that while the notes are right, the "feel" just isn't right.
Brilliant video as always sped, great insight and so well explained. Thanks for sharing. And for anyone reading this who isn’t a patron. Do it now now . I can’t recommend it enough. Brilliant 👍😎
Yes I have watched the pickup episode... They sound very vintage-y and open... Clangerous even! Have I mentioned the lady I know who calls him James AND has a piece of his artwork? She knows all that glitters is gold.....
Thank you Tyler. Really appreciate that. Been teaching a long time and try to keep the videos as close to a one to one as possible. Glad it suits your style. 💪🏻
Ahaa! Four sticks is not as easy as many think. You need the proper timing ,and to count the number of times the main riff is played. Not as easy(as I deem it) as pie. But you have brought a new feel to it than I played it previously. Well done Sped, on another Zep lesson! Pagey is master!!! I look forward to the next tutorial. You have really got me back to my beginning days where I wanted Zeppelin ravenously!!!!!
Yeah it’s quite tricky. I use lyrics as reference as well, I used to do it live a lot. Rather than counting 8, 10, 12 repeats etc. It’ll probably help you relax into the tune and feel a little less analytical. Vibing off the singer like one of the band. 🙌🏻
So many people are saying the same thing! I’m buzzing that everyone is finding their way over here, better late than never right! RUclips must be putting my videos in the right places. 🙌🏻🔥
Yet another tutorial from you which nails it..... Great song great teacher great humour. Sick tone too Spedmeister. Thanks once again, fabulous tutorial.
Sped!!! Many many thxs man. My big brothers would bring these album's home when I was a child and it tore my head off. I could never get it out of my head until I could play it.🤘💪🎸
That’s really cool, a few people have mentioned riding in their brothers car and listening to this, or similar to you in listening to it with them at home. Experiences shared are everything, and this sounds like a special one for you and your brothers. Surely a defining moment in your guitar journey? Maybe a deafening one too? 😂 Although we hope not.
Wanted to add my thanks to your fantastic site, I've been playing LZ on the guitar for many years, and there's still so much to learn. Also, your tone is ridiculously good!!
I was listening to Four Sticks with my son today, and had the thought -- "I wonder if Sped has a lesson on this?" Glad you do. Great choices to celebrate the 50 years of IV.
When I first picked up the guitar Zeppelin was well out of reach. It’s nice to come back with some chops and be able to learn it properly. Your lessons are spot on. If you need someone to play that G6 chord I’m your man. 🤘😎
I’m just glad I’m here before your channel blows up big time. What a treasure you are Sped. Wish i had found you earlier. I’ve been dying to learn Led Zeppelin songs for so many years and you’re killing it with every video. Excellent stuff, wish you the best. Salute!
Bloody brilliance my friend from across the pond , just splendid I really think so much of people like you who show the way of the greatest musicians ever to roam this 🌎 ☮️♾️🎵🎶🎼🎶🎵🔥💥🔥🎸✌️👍😎
Another great lesson, thanks! This song always gets slagged as the weak link, but I think its the linch pin! More Page genius! So much atmosphere, and of course one of Bonzos best as well. I never tried to learn it until this morning
Yeah it’s a very cool song, it does well to wind Misty down into California. Has the same opening energy and then teases you with sparkling acoustics before it drops fully, if that makes sense?
@@SpedSpedding Agreed! The pacing of the album is yet another instance of brilliance. If I have any "complaint" about the album, it would be that the guitar is mixed a little low on the main riff of this track, but that's probably just the guitarist in me ...to have even written one of these tracks would be a godsend for us mortal men
Always great videos. You make it look very doable and easy. The angle of the camera made this hard to see. Straight over the freeboard is nice as I (we) can see everything clearly that way. Still, great teaching!
@@SpedSpedding Absolutely! Thank you for taking the time to respond to my comment! I would love to get in contact if you are willing to teach personal lessons as well virtually. I'm at around 3 years now and not making as much progress as I would like.
Yeah, this month was dedicated to celebrating the fourth album. Three songs that I had never touched before so figured it would be a good time to release them.
I noticed towards the ending of Four Sticks on my Pecko/Duck pressing of IV swells in volume and sounds more aggressive before the fade out than most pressings... the mastering is reminiscent of Bob Ludwig's magical touch applied to Zeppelin II.
Good morning ! Have been tuning in to your channel on my tv and had to let you know how awesome your channel is ! and.. to be able to play a song such as this, not to mention yet all of the others, I found this one so sexy to play the licks.. & its always been a favorite in my Led Zeppelin memory banks ..its So exciting learning any Zeppelin music ! Although I am just skimming the surface here, I just wanted to thank you for the inspiringly fun guidance in learning the tunes.. (really amazing) as a few years ago I stumbled on the Led Zeppelin Complete Lyric & Chord Songbook (put out by Alfred Music Publishing Co) at a local guitar store and I just stood there in the store, pouring into it thinking.. Ohmygosh, I am holding the holy grail of Zeppelin music composition.. now that said, dial that up sitting down learning from a talented enthusiast as yourself, sharing it all ... mind blowing .. sincerely.. Thank YOU !
Morning! Very early morning for me in fact… 00:13 😂 You’re so welcome! Did you buy the book then? Is it working out as a companion along side my lessons? There will probably be some “disagreements” because I do things my own way. But either way I’m glad you’re enjoying the content and learning with me. 🤘🏻😎
Glad you enjoy it! And yeah I love it too, it's broken up beautifully, if you skipped it on for the first time listening you'd never guess it was the same song yet it works so well.
You're so fortunate. I came close to seeing them live. My friend had put in for tix to their Chicago stop on the 1980 autumn US tour. But we know the end of that story. I did see Page/Plant twice though.
Love it Sped. Your lessons and how you incorporate theory tidbits is awesome. Not just learning the song but learning the notes and the why. Ending transition was on point too, just sayin.
Thank you Johnny! Appreciate your feedback as always. It took my ear so I had to drop it in. Also referencing the thirds in there should simplify things if you know them so linking off to that lesson made sense. ✨🙌🏻
This is the one song they never really thought they'd nailed it sound wise in the mixing stage. Probably my favourite track from Four Symbols. Must admit I nicked the chorus pattern for one of my own songs. It's what Jimmy would want hehe.
Another great lesson! I don’t know if I ever really noticed that variation to that progression at the end. Very insightful as always! Keep them coming please.

That’s really sweet Ivan, thank you! I’ve been teaching half my life now. Here’s to the next however long! 💪🏻😂
I agree, all though im a bassist, whenever i wanna learn the guitar parts for fun i always go here or watch these for comfort
@Ivan Arellano... you will respect Sped's authorita!
Easily the best Zeppelin teacher on RUclips!
Definitely yes , I've seen tons, and the books over the years, this is tops.
Love this song, especially when the open chords start ringing out (and the owls cry out in the night). No one teaches Zeppelin better than Sped.
Ah you’re too kind. Thank you for learning with me. 🔥
Four Sticks has always been an underrated Zep song. It's certainly one of my favourites.
It’s a magnificent tune Tony! Good choice. 🙌🏻
Page, always brilliant. Nobody plays and composes like him.
A true master of his art. 🙏🏻✨
The BEST teacher ever. What a talented person.
You’re so kind, thank you! 😍

Thanks for sharing.
And for anyone reading this who isn’t a patron. Do it now now . I can’t recommend it enough. Brilliant 👍😎
Thank you Chris, my pleasure as always! Appreciate that plug as well. 🔥
Absolutely one of my favorite Zep tunes...great to play solo acoustic and even better plugged in with our drummer who nails it!
Amazing, do they have a similar style to Bonzo?
Love Four Sticks. Great tutorial. Robert might be my favorite part of this particular song.
His vocal is precious, I love this song too. ❤️✨
Excellent lesson Sir! Thanks for sharing.
This is a great lesson learned parts that I thought I would have never been able to play thanks so much sped keep the LED going.
Awesome Gary! Thanks for watching again, glad you’re liking the videos.
Sped you're still the Best ! 💪🤓
🇫🇷 is still listening and learning...thanks !

That wee G bend on the main riff is genius. And essential.

Thank you Ken; comments like this keep me going. 💪🏻
Excelente consejos para aprender esta gran pieza de Led, gracias..
Led Zeppelin is best Band ever !!!!
I might have to agree with you. 😏❤️
you can substitute hard, 12th fret harmonics on 2 lower strings for inverted A powerchord, let it ring, then slam the G
Great tunes and playing SpedSpedding!
Subtle nuances are always overlooked. You Sir, are an outstanding teacher/player…indeed🤘
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you’re getting so much out of the extra little bits. ❤️

Always loved this song, but I have a new appreciation for it after hearing some of the components of the whole. Never can get enough Zep.
Glad to shed some light on certain parts, have fun playing it!
Wanted to add my thanks to your fantastic site, I've been playing LZ on the guitar for many years, and there's still so much to learn. Also, your tone is ridiculously good!!
Glad to help! And thanks you, I have got a cool video coming up about tone. People should really enjoy it.
Led zeppelin meets Harry Potter, so cool , luv it great tutorial
I was listening to Four Sticks with my son today, and had the thought -- "I wonder if Sped has a lesson on this?" Glad you do. Great choices to celebrate the 50 years of IV.
I was in the room Andy, I was astral projecting for ideas from subscribers. 😂😂 Enjoy.

A treasure, that’s lovely. Thanks for the compliment and feedback. I’m glad you get so much from the video enjoy everything else you find. ❤️
Great lesson. Very helpful. I'm going to have to tackle it and take it to rehearsal and suggest it to our band. Always loved this track.
It’ll be a really fun one to play together. It’ll send your drummer to the pub and back for sure. 😂
how can we click the like button haven't seen the lesson yet. but your still one off the best instructors. I learned charming man from your video..
Thanks! That one was quick and it's a 3-day weekend here so maybe I'll manage two!
Thank you Jim! You'll definitely sneak another one in for sure.

And at the end of tunes the world will end. 😂

Im an older starter, love zeppelin, find your vids and instruction pretty great bud, just wish the willing matched the ability!!!!!!
Oh it will do, just give it time. You’ve got all the extra materials now too! Thank you and welcome! 🔥

Yeah, this month was dedicated to celebrating the fourth album. Three songs that I had never touched before so figured it would be a good time to release them.
@@SpedSpedding Yes, that was a very good way to celebrate the album...I have never seen anyone before to try teach this song :D
I think that this is the first time I've seen someone do a lesson on this song.
There are a few out there, maybe I just covered a few more sections in there. It’s a brilliant song. 🙌🏻
Great video. Love this song but had always assumed it was trickier than this, looking forward to learning it. Thank you!
Time signature wise it pulls you around a bit but the main guitar lines aren’t too complicated. Hopefully this helps you get it down. 🔥
Another great one Sped. I’m the one willing to play the G6 over and over for anyone who is willing to be the one who buys the pints. Cheers
Haha good to know Ron. Love that you went straight in on the G6! “Gotcha!!! Now where’s the pints?!” 😂
Digestible and distinguished!!! Spectacular!✌️❤️
Wonderful John! Thank you so much. 🍿🙏🏻
Are you adding palm mute to opening riff, ? Thanks for the lesson, great teaching
I noticed towards the ending of Four Sticks on my Pecko/Duck pressing of IV swells in volume and sounds more aggressive before the fade out than most pressings... the mastering is reminiscent of Bob Ludwig's magical touch applied to Zeppelin II.
Good morning ! Have been tuning in to your channel on my tv and had to let you know how awesome your channel is ! and.. to be able to play a song such as this, not to mention yet all of the others, I found this one so sexy to play the licks.. & its always been a favorite in my Led Zeppelin memory banks ..its So exciting learning any Zeppelin music ! Although I am just skimming the surface here, I just wanted to thank you for the inspiringly fun guidance in learning the tunes.. (really amazing) as a few years ago I stumbled on the Led Zeppelin Complete Lyric & Chord Songbook (put out by Alfred Music Publishing Co) at a local guitar store and I just stood there in the store, pouring into it thinking.. Ohmygosh, I am holding the holy grail of Zeppelin music composition.. now that said, dial that up sitting down learning from a talented enthusiast as yourself, sharing it all ... mind blowing .. sincerely..
Thank YOU !
Morning! Very early morning for me in fact… 00:13 😂
You’re so welcome! Did you buy the book then? Is it working out as a companion along side my lessons? There will probably be some “disagreements” because I do things my own way. But either way I’m glad you’re enjoying the content and learning with me. 🤘🏻😎
Thank you for this gift!
My pleasure!
I love this song! Great video, as always!
Glad you enjoy it! And yeah I love it too, it's broken up beautifully, if you skipped it on for the first time listening you'd never guess it was the same song yet it works so well.
Awesome job, made me think I need to start playing this again!
✌️😎🎸🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
The record or you personally playing the songs? Either way, cool.
Damn, I wish I could turn my age clock back 50 years lol, but at least I got to see them live twice. Great track, thank you.
You're so fortunate. I came close to seeing them live. My friend had put in for tix to their Chicago stop on the 1980 autumn US tour. But we know the end of that story. I did see Page/Plant twice though.
I think we all do sometimes. If definitely turn it back to a time where I could have seen them live for sure. 🔥❤️
Great lesson!!! As usual...😃
Thank you!
Right on Sped. This is great man! 🤘🏽🖤
You’re welcome. I’m glad you liked it. I’m glad, and so are you. 🙌🏻😏
Love it Sped. Your lessons and how you incorporate theory tidbits is awesome. Not just learning the song but learning the notes and the why. Ending transition was on point too, just sayin.
Thank you Johnny! Appreciate your feedback as always. It took my ear so I had to drop it in. Also referencing the thirds in there should simplify things if you know them so linking off to that lesson made sense. ✨🙌🏻
hey, how you doing mate? love this, have you got patron, how you do, oh isn't that a bargan for the tabs, love you mate.
Haha, you nailed it.
This is the one song they never really thought they'd nailed it sound wise in the mixing stage. Probably my favourite track from Four Symbols. Must admit I nicked the chorus pattern for one of my own songs. It's what Jimmy would want hehe.
Hahaha, if you ever end up in court come back here to erase this immediately. 😂
That intro cracked me up, Sped. Great stuff as always.
Haha thanks David! I bought a lottery ticket that night. Not a single number. 😂
Another great lesson! I don’t know if I ever really noticed that variation to that progression at the end. Very insightful as always! Keep them coming please.
Thanks Paul, yeah the end kinda caught me off guard when playing so I thought I’d chuck in a bit about the hammer and accent changing.
@@SpedSpedding thanks for incorporating that for us mere mortals 🙂
Another awesome zeppelin lesson !! Thanks!!
You’re welcome!
Every song on the IV album is EPIC!
I agree, it deserves a place in history among the absolute best. 🫑 😏
That G 6th is my favorite... and it was on a 12 string.
Ah cool! Explains the octave jangle it has to it. Definitely need a 12 string. And a bigger rack! 😂
