      You could do an entire series on Jerry Garcia improv. And techniques for his typical dead stuff, but also blues and bluegrass. I’d love to see that! Been fascinated with his soloing for 30 plus years.

      @@JeffWilliamsGuitar I watched it right after it was released yesterday. Excellent breakdown of techniques. Seems Jerry used a lot of arpeggio notes within each chord, then blended this with scales often in a chromatic progression. He could see it all in his head! Kind of genius.

    Ive seen a couple of your videos before, not paid much attention as they were above my knowledge and skill level. I was drawn to this, remembering how much I enjoyed the Dead in the day and found several very useful ideas and explanations. Thank you for creating and sharing this content and for what you are doing for those of us trying to make music. BEST AND PEACE

      Learning Dead tunes is a great way to increase your knowledge and chops. I'm finally an intermediate player who learned some theory in college. But since I couldn't play the piano or guitar it was like doing a math problem. When I came back to guitar a few years ago, I discovered triads and then advice from John Mayer. Mayer said learn songs or riffs, then reverse engineer them. Figure out how and why they work. I've found it's a way of integrating all the things you know. This channel is a great way to give you options.

    The way you played the G chord in They Love Each Other is the way I've always played it. It was years before I learned any other way. Bertha was the first Dead song I ever learned. Holding the G that way made it easy to pedal back and forth between the G and C.

      Duh... That's like beginner shit to figure out. Literally, most people figure that out by themselves not long after learning cowboy chords. The Grateful Dead suck btw.

    Good video. Makes me want to pick up my guitar again. A while back I bought the Garcia/Hunter Songbook, which was fun to go through and try. Some songs were too difficult but others were reasonably easy to get going on. One that was too tough was New Speedway Boogie. Easier but interesting ones were Mission In the Rain, Sugaree, China Doll, and Stella Blue.

    It NASA couple barre chords, but Althea is super easy. 6 chords, but they're all super easy to transition into. The progressions are just:
    Bm, A, E, A, Bm, A, E
    Repeat that twice
    Then Cm, D, A, Cm, E
    And the bridge is D, G, D, G, Bm, A, E
    Very fun to play and practice finger picking.

    Hi Jeff, This was fantastic. I signed up for the Ripple mini course and I am enjoying it. Idea: how about a course on these 5 songs, like you did with Ripple? Also maybe an audio track of just the guitar without drum and bass?

      But again I really dig the 'get out a play' vs the 100% authentic style. Obv, you could play it note for note, but I think there is a market for the simplified versions
