By far the best acoustic guitar playing for this tune that I’ve ever heard 👍😎🇺🇸
James nailed ! Very souful performance!
Such a good cover. Bet his dad is so proud of him and what he’s doing❤️
An excellent acoustic cover of this classic Stones. There's nothing more pure and honest to me than acoustic guitars strumming with vocal harmony. That's how Mick and Keith wrote it
Gloria Pascoe Yeah, and the earth is flat too. Brian Jones wrote ZERO songs. He played some great things on the recordings. The internet is full of that conspiraricy crap. Btw. ‘Gimme Shelter’ is a song written and recorded AFTER Jones died. Go figure.
@@gloriapascoe2614 GET OVER IT!!!

Wow! Great acoustic rendition...well conceived & executed.
I don't care if he is McCartney's son, it's a damn fine rendition! Go James !
+John Smith
what
Did you have a question? If so, one word is not enough.
SMH, IDK.
its because you say it like because hes Pauls son it would be a bad cover lmao
Can you write that response in English?
That acoustic solo was fantastic !
Shows up to where his Beatle dad's records were pressed; plays Stones cover. Brilliant. Love you, James
A Beatles' son jamming out here to the Rolling Stones. Gotta love it! Nice job, James and company. Vocal and improvised lead get 5 stars -the max- sitting playing acoustic guitars out here on a chair and crates in a factory.
I love it he is really talented!

Fantastic version. James sounds nothing like his dad. Just an observation. He is a solid musician in his own right. He and Dhani Harrison continue to delight and impress me.

That's because his dad is a professional impersonator that has played 3 or 4 different characters including Paul and Vivian stanshall. Excellent musician. So James is really the son of Billy Campbell and has closer to that voice timber. James is probably also very talented.
@@jamesmccartney5511 heard your Neil young cover a few minutes ago. I thought it was a really good approach
He DOES sound a little bit like paul tho.
FAB
James
♥️💥🌟🎤🎸💥♥️
This is such great performance. I keep coming back to watch it again every couple of years
Same. The song just suits him. His voice, and his guitar style...
Beatle Paul's son doing Mick and the Stones. Priceless.
This is an excellent performance of the Stones classic.
Great job guys
2 acoustics and a box.....are you kidding me! They rocked it. I enjoyed listening. Back up singing and the beat on the box is solid. Lead was fantastic. Vocals are great. Cool 3 piece. Wish they had done a few more that day.
cinconote it’s not a “box.” It’s a cajon.
@@calisongbird you"re right dude,
It's not a box, it"s a peruvian intrument calls Cajón (ca-hon)
Was Internationalized by the great spaniard flamenco guitarist' Paco de Lucía
Lol 😂😂😭😭
@SAN M actually mean Caja not cajon
@@dantefrias All true, especially the bit about Paco being great.
Ive heard hundreds of covers of this ( my fave song of all time). This is right up there, well done guys. Love it!
Don't care whose son he is - dam fine acoustic trio any day of the week. Cheers for the upload.
Fine
I like
He is his own person and he has it down to suit his own style love his music. Nice voice.
I just recently discovered James McCartney and I've been listening to anything I can find. He's freaking fantastic.
His song "Angel" 's phenomenal
I think James rocks this song.....So much so, that I keep coming back 4 more :) Rock on James !
+donna stitz what
+sas ross I'm guessing , U R referring to my comment about baldness. The reason I said that was because someone left a comment saying,"how is it that James is balding, yet Sir Paul still has a full head of hair." & LIKE I SAID, "LIKE ANYONE GIVES A SHIT, WHO IS OR IS NOT BALD ..... I JUST CARE ABOUT THE MUSIC :)
dig it! Go James
I read where male baldness comes from the mother's side of the family. Paul's Mom may not have had anyone bald in her family but Linda's apparently did. And just because the mother might have a bald relative certainly doesn't mean the male children will be. Conversely, if there is a bald child you can bet someone on the mother's side was bald.
oh yeah he will look like a clue ball very soon. ha ha
His guitar playing is top notch
average you mean
@@bbsoni4814 let's hear your guitar playing? 😂
Sounds pretty good
his guitar playing is average at best and so is his singing
Nah mate. Dude plays so robotically. He's just an average player.
haha nice to know a son of a Beatle is covering a Stones song!
The Beatles wrote "I Wanna Be Your Man" for the Stone's first single in 1963.
HAAAAAAAAAAA
Julian covered “Ruby Tuesday” for the Wonder Years Soundtrack
@@gloriapascoe2614 And what song did Brian really wrote? Just name one and I'll be happy ! And Jagger wrote some of the best lyrics in rock'n'roll history (not to mention the music (and riff) of Brown Sugar, that even Keith admitted Mick wrote all by himself)...
Julian Lennon did Ruby Tuesday ......
FANTASTIC! Their harmony is superb!
That was really good. Probably the best acoustic version on RUclips.
Blessed with some of his Dad's talent.
Cursed by some of his Dad's shadow.
Lucky for him also blessed with some of his father's money.
WakinTheDeadFan I disagree I think,too it was just a fun jam,like the original was written w Mick & Keef. Chill.
@WakinTheDeadFan His or his father's?
Didn’t get dads good looks 😩
I watched this expecting not to like it, but it's really good. I'm off to play it again.
he looks like Steven Stills with Paul McCartneys face
inkey2 you know you got that' right and he did a Neil Young song!
:-D
Lol...Good observation. I concur.
even his style of dressing is very steven stills
I was just thinking the same thing ! he does !
Damn,he has alot of talent.One of the best versions I've heard of this warhorse song.Son of Macca chops
That is indeed A fine, good Song. Thank you.
I've listen to James McCartney in other things and wasn't all that impressed. But this version of Gimme Shelter is dead on. Hats off to all three of you guys. It's one of my favorite songs and to do it in an acoustic setting and with no real production behind it. Top of the shelf boys, top of the shelf.
Absolutely agree, totally blown away with this rendition!
Paul and Linda's "Sweet baby" James , like this acoustic no frills version a lot!
Wow that is just brilliant........Such a classicsong and they just nailed it, talented group of guys right there and James is doing is pops proud! Just awesome!
That James is a good guitar player and a very good choice of music. I bet the Stones are wrapped you did that song.
I would say mighty chuffed.
NewsNotShownonTV a
Sounds like the version Keith might have played for Mick while they were writing it. So raw. This is cool.
Fine job. Cheers James!
He should do more blues-flavored acoustic numbers like this.
James absolutely outstanding!!!!
I really love this raw acoustic vibe of a great song. James cuts right through with his voice.. an excellent and very musical cover - keep rocking and well done - love it !
Great cover! Gets in the groove right away.
Absolutely love this version of a Stones classic. James is clearly a great guitarist. A Beatles son playing a Stones song it doesn’t get much better.
James I like this version!!!
Go on James lad! Top cover . You can play and sing like a lot of people only wish they could. Respect
I will love to see this trio in concert on tour with this style. Kickin'!!
Very good James !
I love the way James played and sang with his trio.It was great. Keep on keeping on.
Good set-up and energy. The song is one of the Stones best. Good pick
I dig it. I've always wanted to play this song and now I have JMc's rendition for reference. Son of a Beatle digging Stones music is very, very cool.
Great licks on that Gibson James. Love what you do and never WORK a day in your life. Keep it coming James you sound great.
@Jamespcartney I listened to your video cover again. It was even better than the first time. Keep up the music James, you sound great.
I'm looking forward to more music from you. The "GREAT HEART" of your mother lives in you! Your music will keep coming and you will not be able to record it fast enough. Go James!
@Jamespcartney James, we can say anything right here. Let your light shine for all to see. Its good to help everyone. There is more power in the public places than in a private room.
Watch John Hammond Jr. to see how much power one man can deliver. Your talent is similar to his.
Its in the heart, James!
Can't be easy following his dad who has a stunning voice, the Beatles came from hunger, this guy was never hungry but good luck to him.
That took some stones to do this beings Pauls' son. I personally think it sounds great GO FOR IT MAN!
He’s become a competent musician over the years, and this is pretty smokin’ for an unplugged jam.
I only took time to listen to James. He is great.
This is how I play this song on my acoustic. This sounds great. I would like to hear more songs from these guys.
I think he sounds good ... You go James......
I hear Paul's voice in him
Very talented guy! His father must be proud!
Playing the song simply, letting the music do the work. No egos required.
They had a good recording system. He has a good voice, too.
Ok do you guys know how hard it is to learn guitar and even sing in tune? How incredibly hard it is to cover this song acoustically? I'm a musician, I'm telling you it's not bad at all. It's not his fault his Dad is Macca. Good on him for doing his thing.
Piano and singing is impossible
@@jimathy8818 Elton John and Jerry Lee Lewis come to mind straight away 🤔
@@jimathy8818 it’s really not . Once you get good enough at piano, you don’t even think about playing . It’s pure muscle memory . I use to think same thing , but now it’s as easy as singing and walking honestly . Just keep practicing till it’s muscle memory
Clearly never heard paul or John play piano and sing lol
Playing rhythm guitar is one of the easiest things to accomplish musically. The challenge is playing complicated rhythms on bass and sing then test yourself by instantly singing harmony
Awesome rendition with such simple instruments. Fabulous James! (My son is also named James). I'm sure it's a tough road being in your dad's shadow, but you'll do fine. I know he's got to be proud of you. You ROCKED it!
I love this. Live acoustic. No over dubbing Just one camera raw and live. Cool.
Loved the version! It amazes me how simple but powerful it sounds. They just needed two guitars, a box and their voices to sound powerful.
If I didn't know he was Paul's son, I'd guess he was Stephen Stills' son.
I totally enjoyed this. A fine job on one of the greatest songs of the 20th century.
top-class guys ! and music too......
This will stay with me forever. Talent at it’s best.
There's no hiding behind dad's figure here. That's a proper guitar player right there ladies and gentlemen. You can't play like that just by saying"daddy I want to be famous, get me lessons", that is real talent. You can have as much lessons as you want but if you haven't got the talent or fingers and hands for it then you ain't getting to that level. I know because I've taught myself to play and I'm not that good, because my fingers aren't long enough and don't have the dexterity needed to be REALLY good, so I'm probably below average. But that is genuine talent and ability, right there. Peace and Love.
He prob just has more free time than you to practice is all to be honest. Not sure how long you've been playing, but there's no Hendrix style wizardy going on in this video. If you really think your fingers aren't long enough, maybe look into mandolin or banjo or Uke. Some people with really big hands and long fingers make awesome bass players, but can't play mandolin at all. Other people with smaller fingers are great at mandolin and banjo and uke, but don't have the hands to wrap around a bass or some guitars well. This is one of my favorite Rolling Stones jams, but it is a simple song in terms of chord theory, and the brief guitar solo he played is fine, it's pleasant with no mistakes, but its very basic and easy to play. Guitar is mostly a technical skill, not a mysterious artistic talent. More time spent practicing = get better and better.
James and the rest of the trio, way to go!!!!
Great, great version. You knocked it out of the park.
I can't believe people have the audacity to dislike this
Mccartney son playing a ROLLING STONES song, there´s something more bizarre than that? Besides that, He is not a good singer and the cajon guy SUCKS
Those guitar playin hands, being put to
Good use. Well done.
Omg. Watching this in 2020. Song and setting so appropriate to Covid times.
Wow this is really good.......well done fellas............the Stones will be watching their backs!
James, great guitar playing. Keep Smiling.😊
Sounds good, man. Really like that open air sound. Good one.
Thank god at last i can see his talent coming through, i like this as he looks com fortable
I know, its only rock and roll....But I like it.
Love this. Love James. He's his own person and is genuinely talented. He has a very good voice. Rock on, Sweet Baby James. Thank you for this fine video.
The music sounds pretty good. It sounds very full. I like it and as for his Voice, it's good enough, no need to compare him to his Father
NICE! love the acoustic version and the setting had awesome acoustics as well .
Its beautiful. I love him.
This is the first time I've really noticed his resemblance to his dad.

Nice one James!!!!
James looks like his dad sounds awesome
This vid inspired the hell out of me. Added this song to my busking set list on the beach and it’s one of my best money makers! Thanks for the upload and good vibes
Really love this version. 🤘
Excellent cover ~ Good choice of location, The old concrete added reverb ~ I Enjoyed it very much ~ All the very best, Geoff
Excellent guitar playing James.
Superb, really good the way those two guitars agree, great voice, great band. More!
So hard to be Paul McCartney'son and musician
hes good too bad he cant get out of his father's shadow just like the other beatles kids
he's good???? OMG he's singing is FLAT
lol... you'd be shocked if you heard the latest paul mccartney dvds before the auto tune and melodyne editing. be nice.
by the way, that's what music sounds like when modern producers and record labels don't get ahold of it and squeeze the life out of it for mas consumption. singers sing flat sometimes.
To get out of your father`s shadow, you have to have a similar outstanding talent.
I'd like to see The Beatles kids get together just once.....
He knows which band was the Greatest Rock and Roll band!
Love it. I used to live near there so that makes me love it even more!
Happy to hear him do tunes he likes. Not always cover of Paul's music.
Nice lead guitar.
This is very good. Amazing considering it's only two guitars, three voices and a box.
James' version is awesome! You go guys.
Just made my sunday morning better, mr James and mates...
You know, Marcus, I think perhaps that's what truly counts at the end of the day.
Maybe in a less judgmental world we'd have learned how to loosen up and have fun.
Isn't that at least partly what the Beatles were about?
Go, Jimmy, go!
genial James!!!
Loved it James , thanks for sharing, 😄
Fantastic version of this classic! Love it!
