Let’s give it up for James … he closed his channel 2 years ago, and I still come back to it for tips. The man is really an excellent teacher and he has given so much. Thank you brother. Peace and be well.
@@jamescassidy3995 ya, I’m in complete agreement with you. Jimmy was a master of composing stuff that sounds harder to play than it actually was, whereas a good bit of Hendrix sounds like it will be easy, but is actually way, way harder than it sounds.
I realized how amazingly beautiful it is in 1995 when the unplugged concert was published. It blows me away every time. I am only now starting to learn to play guitar, and this song is on my must-learn list.
Man I love learning from you because your the only one on yt that seems to know how or takes the time to figure out the artist really recorded songs. No one else explains how Page probably recorded songs or if they do they never talk about it. Thank you very much for your time and palying the songs the way they recorded songs on the studio version.
Silver B and Jester summed it up perfectly. Been listening to this song for 40 years, and finally got it figured out on the guitar thanks to your attention to the tuning, your patience, slow breakdown, and repetition. I owe ya some frosty rounds at our local pub. Thanks James James!
I remember jogging 12 years or more ago… and this came on for me to hear the first time. By the end of the song, I was standing still just listening to the outro riff.
Hey PT/JJ, I just wanted to say "MUCH THANKS". I am one of your silent majority who came across your Privettricker channel a few years back. Each new video provided me with another valuable lesson. I love your no nonsense approach to playing a song and then simply breaking it down for us. Similar to you, I don't read tabs or music, and at 51 with two kids I don't have the time nor inclination to want to learn it now. I just want to play... and thanks to you I know I am much better than the day I first found your channel. Thanks again for your time, talent and unselfish willingness to share it with the rest of us. And for free... who and why would anyone ever complain about that. Good luck with the new channel... from just another guitar player who appreciates you and all that you have done. Peace!!!
I'm late to the party, but I've been listening, and learning, from you for a few months. I then discovered privettricker and felt his lessons were good too. Didn't realize until tonight you are the same guy. Well, since all the comments are disabled privettricker, I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed those videos. I've learned a few of the songs based on those lessons (Frampton and The Who, especially) and I wanted to say "Thanks!".
+Bruce Wayne Yeah, which is a shame because it's a great album. I love the acoustic vibe, and the rockers are great, too. Celebration Day has always been one my favorite Zep songs.
I just discovered this song a few weeks ago. I try to save some Zep here and there as they won’t be releasing too much anytime soon but man this song is heavenly
@@deriangueldner23 just discovered this now? Your missing out on SO MUCH MORE...Do yourself a favor and just buy the whole catalog.....Theres a reason that their known as " The Mighty Led Zeppelin " BTW, there's a great live performance of this song on the Led Zeppelin DVD...
My all time favorite zeppelin tune! My guitar playing has finally passed the beginner stage, and I realize how much easier these great songs are than I perceived them to be. I know what I'll be annoying my wife with for the foreseeable future! Thanks for the great tutorial!
when he says "to me it sounds like" or "im hearing (whatever)" thats good enough for me !...from the old channel to this hes never wrong...one of the best on YT, always very clear and correct
Great lesson on one of my favorite Zeppelin songs. Best of luck with the new channel. I'd hate to see you go for purely selfish reasons. You're my first stop when looking for how to play a song, and I've learned a *ton* from you. Not trying to butter you up, just wanted to express my appreciation. I can only imagine the idiot comments you've been getting.... Do what you need to do, but I very much hope this channel will work out.
Thank you James - great lesson. You play this cute song perfectly! I live in Wales only a few miles from the cottage where it was written - thought I'd better learn it!!
Is it me or were there just many great acoustic songs written between zeplin and the stones in the late sixties early seventies because I haven't noticed an era since or maybe I am just missing something
Other artists that I have affection for: Doc Watson/Mississippi John Hurt/Grateful Dead....Public radio has some great acoustic music Saturday nights w/Chris Thiele (outstanding mandolin) and recently PBS has been airing a documentary series titled American Epic-giving detailed info on many genre's of American music....
It’s impossible to pick a best Led Zeppelin song, but if you want to play something to someone who has never heard Led Zeppelin, just play “ That’s the Way “. Haunting and wonderful, it’s acoustic magic.
The thing that I love about Jimmy Page’s composing, is how he uses a bunch of different open tunings in his songs. Learning them really gets you “in-tune” or familiar with all these tunings, like for example the “Rain Song”, that song is “hard to play” for me.
Thanks a bunch JJ ... that's a fun one --- for anyone, like me, who needs to look all this stuff up ... JJ said their Live Tuning was prob Open G (DGDGBD), and the Album Tuning closer to Open F# (C# F# C# F# A# C#)
Thanks so much James for the great lesson on this beautiful song. You have an amazing ear if you ask me. I couldn't find a decent tab on the internet in Open G tuning for this song so I wrote one for myself this afternoon based on my take of your lesson. Would be happy to send it to you.
I Hear Ya Brother James James, I Got to Hand it to ya, I've Learned More From You Than Any Other Guitar Player. I Don't think We can Every Stop Learning The Guitar and all its Wonders so Keep Up the Great Work , I've never subscribed till now but Dig all the PT I can Get. I Play by Ear as Well and Have played 39 Years an Dig What You Do! Thank You
Hello James James! I just came from your last video under your other name. I listened to what you had to say... Let me say this... There are fools and idiots everywhere. I guess the price of a free and open society is that all the "Trolls" are loose and free to post whatever moronic idiotic things that's on their little ignorant minds... Anyway, I have learned a lot from you over the past years. I'm 59 years old and grew up on the Beatles, Stones, Sabbath, Zeppelin, Grand Funk Railroad, The WHO etc.. I'm now a Jazz musician. I also have a degree in Music Theory... I really enjoyed your story about teaching your brother guitar on the "old" RUclips from years ago.. I think you have encouraged many many more people to play guitar and you should be proud of that fact. Your lessons are very clear and I have watched may of them and said to myself, "Oh, so that's how you play that" Anyway, just wanted to say keep filtering out the infantile trolls and stay positive! The amount of hits that you have speak for itself. I think your lessons are great! Just like this one from Led Zepp lll... Keep the songs coming my fellow guitarist. Your lessons are great and I love a lot of the tunes you've picked to post... Peace Brother... Tom F...
I always enjoy your lessons/demonstrations and I always learn alot from you. I am always fascinated by your "ear" and how you can hear things that I never catch until you point it out. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you hadn't gone for good man and this was the first track you taught me to play. I'm doing this on a 12 string Ovation at the moment and copying the Page & Plant live version - would love to see your take on that, including the fiddly embellishments Jimmy does further up the neck, which I'm having a job deciphering (got something similar sounding but doesn't seem to match his fingering).
So sorry you have to endure all that crap with the other site and so glad you didn't give up completely. I am in my 50s and only started trying to learn the guitar a few years ago. Videos like yours are a tremendous help to people like me who just want to enjoy the guitar in their own way. Thank you so much.
Great song. Pretty underrated to, kind of a shame. And underrated song on an underrated album. I guess a couple bad apples ruin the bunch for some people LZ3 was the first rock album I ever got.
Thanks for helping this former Originals band member learn how to play covers and join a bar band! Got a few years on ya but still love playing and you helped! Signed: Former signed 90s rocker and rejuvenated live cover player.
I would like to thank you for taking the time to post your videos and share your talent with us all. I am a better guitar player by watching and playing along with you. Please keep sharing! Thank you
You're always the goto choice when your profile shows up in a lesson query... you usually are spot on, teach well, and just have great attitude generally! Thanks so much for what you do!! On the final melody E F# G melody just after walking up to the big open D chord w no 3rd I think it may be a quick move to fretting B string on 3 / E string on 4 before getting the high G note rather than an open B string; it's a hard one to make flow as smoothly but seems to sound closer to my ear. He's got two guitar parts so it's hard to hear exactly.
Nice work, and nice and concise. I've been comparing the album and Earl's Court versions this weekend. Both have their own variations that are good to know, and you mentioned some. Great tune.
@James James, it sounds good the way you play it but I remember reading in Guitar World that the tuning was Open C6 (C-A-C-G-C-E), which sounds very good. Same tuning as “Bron-Y-Aur”. Have you tried using Open C6 (C-A-C-G-C-E) for Friends? Anyways, I think I'll play it your way since it's easier and I always keep one guitar tuned to open G...
I respect so much what you are doing. Yes let's be positive, share, and GROW! for crying out loud. You have helped me so much. And you pick some really cool songs. It's the only place I found Never Been to Spain! That's how I found you. Thank you so much. Ignore the haters :-)
Love all of your videos. I've never made a request so here goes: Could you possibly do "For Your Life". Love that tune and Page just lays down a ripping solo. I would love to hear you do it. Thank you so much for your time.
Hey JJ... ya know u sound a lot like that clown PT... lol Thanks for keeping it going... btw, most the great players / musicians did not read music... you bring that (a great musician that explains things the way most think about a new song) to our learning process. Best
The "slowing down" thing is incorrect. It can't, it just can't. In open G the third chord is Totally out of tune. It's an another half step down G flat (F #). Anyway you're tuned right G flat. Great lesson, beautiful guitar; Thank you.....
I know you usually do mostly classic rock & that's why I listen, but could you do a lesson on Stickshifts & Safetybelts by Cake? It's a great guitar/bass song, similar to the riff in Hot Rod Lincoln. Thanks much. Peace.
Thanks for keeping the dream alive. I'm sure its easier said than done, ignoring the trolls and such. I hope that where you live allows you to exersize certain specific Amendments ;-). That will take care of some schlub that wants to stalk. Those douchebags are always tough behind an url. As you stated in the PT channel, the world is a different place. Enjoying the new channel already. Keep it up!!
Subscribed! Funny way I found your channel... Guy posted your "final" vid in the Off topic forum of the tele board I hang out on in a thread about "mean cruel rude" commenting on the innermess... Can't see why people want to slag on somebody sharing their obvious talents... Well... I guess I can but it would be cruel to describe it!
Hey just subscribed to your new channel man, keep up the great work dude you deserve it. Been meaning to learn this track for a while and now is a good a time as any!
thanks for sticking around I really need the help and I have improved since I have been following your lessons. I'm 55 and need all the help I can get "that's the way it's going to be"
NICE LESSON 40.YEARS I LEARNED THIS TUNE IN STANDARD TUNING "G" BUT WE HAVE TO KEEP IN MIND PAGE OVERLAPPED WHAT YOU ARE PLAYING WITH ANOTHER KINDRED ACOUSTIC PART! I NICE OVERVIEW NO LEARN IT IN STANDARD AND YOU ARE 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@@!@
Thanks for your reply,had to reply this way sorry,it says error 404,but allows me subscribe and unsubscribe other peoples sites don't understand that.Anyway will still be following you,you always sound happy,there's enough of the others,cheers.
Heya! Saw your last video and couldn't agree more with your opinion. I'm 54 and don't have time to worry about the theory Nazis, even though I jam with a guy like that is one and he drives me insane. Your videos are great for someone like me that is at a level where I just need to see and hear it. I don't want a note for note breakdown that takes 25 minutes.....unless it's a lead lesson (like your blues lessons). Rock on bro and keep up the great work!
Finally getting around to this one, JJ. Just curious, how do you figure out these "in the cracks" tunings? For this one, did you have an idea that it was in open G due to some of the progressions and then just tweaked the tunings from there by comparing it to the record? Or was there some other process?
I think the Doobie Brothers song South City Midnight Lady is in open G. Anyway love that guitar work in that song do you think you could do a video and post it ?
i was looking for a good lesson for how to play this song and I found one that I liked that was not from you. However After I saw your cover of the song on your old name "privatetricker" i decided no contest i wanted to learn your way. (i love the instructional videos you do) But when I saw your recent video was you cancelling your account, i was very sad. Then I was very relieved to see that you were continuing under a different name, and after i searched for jamesjames this was the first video I saw and I was over the moon happy. Fuck people man, you do you cuz you're a beast and a killer guitar player with an awesome taste in music. rock on man.
Tuning down may also be attributed to tuning the guitar to the pedal steel guitar that was at Ardent Studios in Memphis, where the album tracks were recorded. It’s only a theory.
Let’s give it up for James … he closed his channel 2 years ago, and I still come back to it for tips. The man is really an excellent teacher and he has given so much. Thank you brother. Peace and be well.
Hash tag me too:).
Hopefully he returns
Thanks for showing us a way to play an incredible variety of songs over the years.
Love that you busted the Martin out for 2 of the first lessons. So glad you decided to keep it rollin too.
Good work here again James. Its trickier than it sounds and needs full concentration to get through without hitting any bum notes.
Listen to that Martin D-45!! Sounds like an orchestra.amazing job James
Hey PT/JJ...so glad you're keepin on keepin' on!...I've learned a lot from you!
Just wanted you to know!...Thanks!
Works a lot better in open g, Thanks for the lesson..
Hey......please do Achilles Last Stand Lesson . I really want to learn that song all your other Zeppelin lessons are awesome.
+Mohak Shukla Posted it a couple years ago and it was blocked.
Love this song! Thanks again.
awesome...Grazie mile
I'm new to this site, but am familiar with the old PT batch. Please tell me about the acoustic guitar that you used on, 'Til there was you. Timbo
Just a thought, there are a few songs they did that sound tuned low. Do you think they tuned to 432, not 440?
Thanks
I like your Zep videos ,do you know anyPink Floyd?
Colin Simpson Yes, I do.
Props again
When you break it down like this, you come to realize how exquisitely beautiful the guitar part really is...
You also realise how incredibly easy it is to play a lot of Jimmy’s stuff. Real basic chords in open tunings he got from Bert Jansch & others.
@@jamescassidy3995 ya, I’m in complete agreement with you. Jimmy was a master of composing stuff that sounds harder to play than it actually was, whereas a good bit of Hendrix sounds like it will be easy, but is actually way, way harder than it sounds.
Yes! I was thinking the same thing.
You are so correct. It's beautiful.
I realized how amazingly beautiful it is in 1995 when the unplugged concert was published. It blows me away every time. I am only now starting to learn to play guitar, and this song is on my must-learn list.
Life would be a terribly dull place without music.
dull is an understatement.
If I went death id probably commit suicide.
Without music, life would be a mistake. - Friedrich Nietzsche
Got that right
All of the arts' highest endeavor is to make life bearable. As consciously aware beings, it wouldn't be, otherwise.
Man I love learning from you because your the only one on yt that seems to know how or takes the time to figure out the artist really recorded songs. No one else explains how Page probably recorded songs or if they do they never talk about it. Thank you very much for your time and palying the songs the way they recorded songs on the studio version.
Carl brown is also very good at this. it's what really separates channels. but this man has definitely earned my sub because this is a great lesson
100% the other "guitar lesson" channels don't know zeppelin as well as this guy.
I agree
Silver B and Jester summed it up perfectly. Been listening to this song for 40 years, and finally got it figured out on the guitar thanks to your attention to the tuning, your patience, slow breakdown, and repetition. I owe ya some frosty rounds at our local pub. Thanks James James!
I adore "That's the Way". It's a Summer song - don't know why? One of Zep's best in my opinion - magical!
Yeah, it's really something, yesterday i saw you standing by the river... Beautiful .
Page is so damn good
My Dude!! You hit the nail on the head. Thats the Way is definitely a summer song. 🤘🤘
I remember jogging 12 years or more ago… and this came on for me to hear the first time. By the end of the song, I was standing still just listening to the outro riff.
@@ElronHumpperdink I would do the same - magic
Hey PT/JJ, I just wanted to say "MUCH THANKS". I am one of your silent majority who came across your Privettricker channel a few years back. Each new video provided me with another valuable lesson.

"Getting close to pinball wizard territory"
Haha I love it, exactly what I think whenever I strum crazy fast for a song
Thanks! This IS the type of zeppelin song that made me fall in love with the guitar.
I wouldn't have guessed that this one is in open G. Very under-appreciated Zep song.
That whole album. Except for Immigrant Song. A lot of people skip right over it and head straight to IV.
+Bruce Wayne I prefer it than IV.
+Bruce Wayne Yeah, which is a shame because it's a great album. I love the acoustic vibe, and the rockers are great, too. Celebration Day has always been one my favorite Zep songs.
I just discovered this song a few weeks ago. I try to save some Zep here and there as they won’t be releasing too much anytime soon but man this song is heavenly
@@deriangueldner23 just discovered this now? Your missing out on SO MUCH MORE...Do yourself a favor and just buy the whole catalog.....Theres a reason that their known as " The Mighty Led Zeppelin "

My all time favorite zeppelin tune! My guitar playing has finally passed the beginner stage, and I realize how much easier these great songs are than I perceived them to be. I know what I'll be annoying my wife with for the foreseeable future!

Absolutely agree!! PT's willingness to just give and share is what the world should be about; for sure what music should be about!
Thank you James - great lesson. You play this cute song perfectly! I live in Wales only a few miles from the cottage where it was written - thought I'd better learn it!!
Is it me or were there just many great acoustic songs written between zeplin and the stones in the late sixties early seventies because I haven't noticed an era since or maybe I am just missing something
there was a resurgence of folk music in that time period, not only with rock bands but in many styles.
Other artists that I have affection for: Doc Watson/Mississippi John Hurt/Grateful Dead....Public radio has some great acoustic music Saturday nights w/Chris Thiele (outstanding mandolin) and recently PBS has been airing a documentary series titled American Epic-giving detailed info on many genre's of American music....
Yeah you missed Pink Floyd..
Very well played. I used to strum along in standard tuning but the open G really does the trick
It's great to see the new channel already gathering a lot of subs, all the best to you PT, thanks
Would love to see you do some Neil Young stuff on this channel, love his music
It’s impossible to pick a best Led Zeppelin song, but if you want to play something to someone who has never heard Led Zeppelin, just play “ That’s the Way “. Haunting and wonderful, it’s acoustic magic.
Best lesson on this I've found. Too many others seem to treat it simpler than it is and thus miss much of what's going on. Good work, thanks.

your onto something there but you sould copy and paste this to a video on those songs ....oh wait i could?

If you're not tuning your guitar by ear and you're using a tunning app or something like that,
tuning to Open G flat works best (imo)
Hey JJ... ya know u sound a lot like that clown PT... lol
Thanks for keeping it going... btw, most the great players / musicians did not read music... you bring that (a great musician that explains things the way most think about a new song) to our learning process.

Great, detailed lesson given at the right pace to actually pick it up. Keep em coming!

Good Job.

Thanks for all James. 🖖🏻🥰

The "slowing down" thing is incorrect. It can't, it just can't. In open G the third chord is Totally out of tune. It's an another half step down G flat (F #).
Anyway you're tuned right G flat. Great lesson, beautiful guitar; Thank you.....
One of my all time G maj medleys to play --this BBlack Country Woman Bron-YR Aur Stomp (1877) and carole; 'stheme. so once again you nailed this gem

Hey just subscribed to your new channel man, keep up the great work dude you deserve it. Been meaning to learn this track for a while and now is a good a time as any!
thanks for sticking around I really need the help and I have improved since I have been following your lessons. I'm 55 and need all the help I can get "that's the way it's going to be"
NICE LESSON 40.YEARS I LEARNED THIS TUNE IN STANDARD TUNING "G" BUT WE HAVE TO KEEP IN MIND PAGE OVERLAPPED WHAT YOU ARE PLAYING WITH ANOTHER KINDRED ACOUSTIC PART! I NICE OVERVIEW NO LEARN IT IN STANDARD AND YOU ARE 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@@!@

Awesome! So glad you are still here! Felt kinda sick when I heard you were shutting your channel down. Long live JamesJames!
Miss James James so much I hope you and the Mrs, are doing well ✌🏻
I'm learning this in my car on the way to a gig. Thanks for the lesson!
Awesome lesson....missed this one while you were still on YT.. Miss your lessons, BIGLY!
Great call on the tuning. Otherwise I would have been scratching my head as to why it didn't sound quite right.
Heya! Saw your last video and couldn't agree more with your opinion. I'm 54 and don't have time to worry about the theory Nazis, even though I jam with a guy like that is one and he drives me insane. Your videos are great for someone like me that is at a level where I just need to see and hear it. I don't want a note for note breakdown that takes 25 minutes.....unless it's a lead lesson (like your blues lessons). Rock on bro and keep up the great work!
Good job sir.....your Martin is so sweet! One of my fav zep tunes.....
Finally getting around to this one, JJ. Just curious, how do you figure out these "in the cracks" tunings? For this one, did you have an idea that it was in open G due to some of the progressions and then just tweaked the tunings from there by comparing it to the record? Or was there some other process?
I think the Doobie Brothers song South City Midnight Lady is in open G. Anyway love that guitar work in that song do you think you could do a video and post it ?
That acoustic sound is like having sex with your ears. Nearly got it all down now thanks to you breaking it down. Top man.
Dang I am seriously loving that Martin!
i was looking for a good lesson for how to play this song and I found one that I liked that was not from you. However After I saw your cover of the song on your old name "privatetricker" i decided no contest i wanted to learn your way. (i love the instructional videos you do) But when I saw your recent video was you cancelling your account, i was very sad. Then I was very relieved to see that you were continuing under a different name, and after i searched for jamesjames this was the first video I saw and I was over the moon happy. Fuck people man, you do you cuz you're a beast and a killer guitar player with an awesome taste in music. rock on man.
«And that’s…eeeey…the way!»😂😂😂 Awesome stuff!🤘
Tuning down may also be attributed to tuning the guitar to the pedal steel guitar that was at Ardent Studios in Memphis, where the album tracks were recorded. It’s only a theory.
If I'm not mistaken he uses the same tuning in Wild Horses, sort of open F#. Have a great day. So cool to see only positive comments!
The hard thing? The really hard thing is singing against that guitar cadence. I'm going to stick with it.
Neat! I love those open tunings, and I love this song. It sounds great, until I start to sing. Oops!
