This bloke really does the man in black justice , very nice
He sure does...
I don't understand the negativity in some comments, this was a great lesson and it was nice to see a reincarnation of Johnny Cash :)
Singer pulls it off ....... well done 👍
Johnny cash still Amazing, as you Guys!! Thanks from Italy!!
This was simply a fantastic lesson, thank you so much for
posting.
Amazing lesson.
This helped me a lot really enjoyed this. both are amazing
Loved this a lot the only thing is Johnny had a deeper voice to this master piece of a song but still fantastic
Great video guys,I felt like I was hearing and seeing J Cash , great job
+Surfrby yeah, it's pretty crazy, Skip even has his laugh down! Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.-Rob
Merçi beaucoup pour tout ces detail qui font tout !
Fantastic guys and sounded great 👍

For all Munsters out there: th-cam.com/video/KbKEKlZSfz4/w-d-xo.html

Keep it up!
Nice.Nice.Nice.

Great lesson guys!!
Very Nice work Man
+Ritwik Ghosh thanks for watching, so glad you're digging it.
You coming to the UK
Wow.. This guy nailed it, the best Johnny Cash cover i've ever seen, topped all my expectations!!
Skip is an absolute beast, I'll send him your compliments. Be well. -Rob
swiftlessons x
look up Johnny Counterfit's Walk The Line. He's not a professional singer, he just does imitations, but his imitation of Johnny is dead on.
Jesse Morris does the best Cash of anyone on YT. Here's the kicker, he was in a punk band.
Check out Jackson cash
Good stuff man
Thanks Anthony, glad you're digging the vid. I'll have Skip back soon! -Rob
The guy on the left looks like he'd make a good plumber and the one on the right looks like he'd make a good roofer or block mason.
You're not going to believe this, but Skip actually did become a plumber since shooting this video. 😆
Hi Mr swift. Great lesson Just need now to get the rhythm right to make it sound right,have you any advice. Can you do cocaine blues. Are you from southend if so I might know your dad. cheers. from tea room taylor
Holy shit. His Johnny Cash was amazing
It would be great if you actually played at Folsom Prison In Folsom Ca :)
Action at 04:12
Elvis
I don't understand how to strum the train rhythm though
I recommend playing that part of the video in slow motion using the settings feature on the bottom right of the video. Great tool!
Can someone help me with the strumming pattern?
Hey, I've included that on my chord sheet, and in the video. Basically down, down... down, up, down, up
swiftlessons thanks a lot :)
Is he Elvis? His voice like Elvis
+humamucha paztulam he plays Elvis also, but no this is his Johnny Cash. I think he's nailing it!
To much talking
5:43 car coooaaar
Loved this!! Really enjoy the "Featured Artist" idea, would like to see more. Great job!
+Stephen Rawding thanks, I'm trying to do this once a month, though I'll likely have to break for August. Glad you like the idea though.
Hey everyone,
Thanks so much for checking out this video and thanks to my patrons for making it possible. I've posted my tab, chord sheet and recordings at: goo.gl/WTZYoG. Enjoy!
excellent how did you get johnny Cash in your video ! LOL awesome heres my version ! th-cam.com/video/3uufMdDj4Tc/w-d-xo.html
Yeah let’s pay money just for a tab
Cool rendition but using absolute fret numbers for the rhythm part (played next to the capo) and relative fret numbers for the lead part (played up the neck) seems almost intentionally confusing to me lol
Holy crap! This made my day. Great job, guys! More Cash, please.
Awesome, glad you're excited to learn this classic. Yes, more cash, absolutely!
Many thanks Rob, Skip Robinson nailed that and I felt really entertained with the whole lesson.
Skip is awesome first time I've come across him, never learnt guitar as fast. New fan right here 🙋♂️🤘
Thank you for teaching this song in F, I don't know why everyone plays it in E.
+TenThumbs Productions well it's usually played in E position with a capo on first fret. I've seen footage of Cash doing it with and without a capo, sometimes in E and sometimes in F. The solo however has to be done in E position because it utilizes open strings.
@@swiftlessons
Tune the guitar up a half step to F and play it in open E position.. That's the way they done it.
@@dhy2kb393 that's how I do it, too. Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two also usually did that
Cash played it in E, F and F# too
Even the original band that played this song played it live in e
I saw Million Dollar Quartet last New Year's Day in London. It was fantastic. Im hoping to see it again when it comes back on tour.
Great lesson. You fellas know how to teach. Thanks.I will be following future lessons.Best Johnny Cash I've ever heard.
Such a great guitar lesson! Love your channel it's helped me out so much just wanted to say thanks!
Two talented musicians playing amazing music!
This video is amazing, Skip Robison sounds like jonny cash and Elvis Presley. You guys sounded amazing together.
+Angela Pukis thanks so much, I'll send skip your regards!
Angela Pukis he sounded nothing like Elvis or Cash , not saying he sounded bad.
Solo starts at 18:00
His face melts whenever he lowers his voice
Thanks! Now I can't unsee it!
What an awesome lesson...thank you for teaching us this great classic!
This was awesome. I can't wait till you Walk The Line lesson.
He did a great job but after enough Cash he sounds nothing like him and isn't enthusiastic enough
Ha oh my god I have a lawsuit cfsuzuki&co j200 acoustic too, bought it for fifty pounds second hand when I was 15 and I'm 58 now and I still love it, I've played and own much more expensive guitars but it's the one I'll pick up everytime. Those 1970s Japanese acoustics are really well made. You don't see many of them so I was thrilled to see that one.
Great-strumming technique tuition
Very helpful to understand
Thanks again 🙏✌🏼
Great
Uplifting playing
Brilliant 👏🏾👏🏾🙏😁🏴👍🏽
So awesome thanks for having him on it was amazing to hear you both play! Glad to see these songs moving along in another generation!
His voice is wow 🤩😘 thanks for this both of you
4:10 it starts
Awesome Guys! Rob your solo 😍 👌👌👌. Thanks for sharing!
I play the beginner's version... Bonfire style lol 😟...I'm trying but talent is like the genie in the lamp gotta rub it a lot 😓...🎵🎵🎵
Skip is awesome. Great lesson all around.
Great lesson. You just need a single coil Tele to give it that twang.
link to buy the sj200 copy?!?
Epiphone ej200 is a good close choice
Brilliant work, keep it up mate
Why all this «noisy» music in the background in the start of the video. Absolute Disturbing.
johnny doesn't do as much as those hiccup-ish sounds (sorry for not knowing the proper term)
I’ll be sure to let skip know haha
alright cool, he has a great voice too.
Hello my name is Peter.
I'm from Germany . You are very good teachers. Have learned a lot from you. Stay on your channel. Here in Germany you will not find such good internet teachers. Thanks again.
Hello Peter!
Same here in France... Cheers 🎵🎵🎵
I find it odd when people play their chords, like how he fingers his E major chord in the shape of a C major chord , in different fingerings I've seen it done with the A, D, E, amongst other chords.
Дружище! У тебя очень интересный контент! Наткнулся случайно, но мне очень нравится. Делай больше! Ты крут!
Nice job. Small error though. Since the song is in F, the IV chord is Bb, not A.
What a vocal rendition! Great guys, well done!
Very cool!
God it's crazy he looks a lot like Johnny Cash and has that same look in his eyes like him.
+Alpha.November.Charlie 01 Skip is the real deal. He’s currently portraying Buddy Holly in another musical.
swiftlessons could you do a video of "When I get where I'm going" by Brad Paisley & Dolly Parton?
Anybody that thinks this guy sounds anything like JC is totally tone deaf.
I've watched this lesson so any times...about time I actually tried playing it! Great lesson and excellent channel!
johny strumming in this song seems easy but its not guys
Hello! My friend I would like to play like you man.
still waiting for WALK THE LINE
He eve nailed cashes faces he makes 🤣
Could you please make a tutorial of 'rocky mountain high' or 'annies song' you can play without a capo?
PS: Love your channel so much!!! :)
(Sorry for that bad English in this comment but I 'm not from an English speaking country)
Hey,That was pretty elite Cover.....If Skip's show travelled up near Scranton,I'd sure buy a ticket..
Great lead matched with as well.. Salute!!
jam starts at 4:13
Is that a fucking good old Martin guitar?
The links to Skip are dead. I hope this does not mean Skip is no longer with us.
Skip is alive and well, but took up plumbing 🪠
Thank you so much - just perfect 👍👍
I believe I’ve seen the show life. It was awesome
I'm pretty sure the solo starts with a slide
Naah. It's not a reggae song, (1540 ish) and naah, it doesnt sound cool. But useful, so thanks!
I use a different strum pattern on this song (dotted eight and sixteenth) which fits a lot of country and Johnny Cash stuff. Its a lot easier to do as well and gives a great train sound. But I learned that intro you demonstrated and its great. Took about ten minutes to get it all flowing and I've an audition in a couple of weeks so just might do Folsom for it.
This channel made me wanna renew my guitar skills after so many years of not playing thanks!
Picture is saying ,ahy boys do you know Spanish ladies or Show me the way home, perhaps, I hope.
That's a really cool painting on the wall.
NIce lesson although it would never occur to me to number frets absolutely rather than relatively. Seems positively nutty. What if someone needed to capo to the second fret?
Ive herd better covers, who played the real locomotive sound, this is modified. Bit he does look the part
He looks like Johnny cash 😉😎😎
Ho! I live in Firenze (Italy) compliment for the Channel and good job whit Johnny cash shot! Thank you
That’s Johnny Currency
Love it!!! thanks for the great lessons.In 1974 or 75 i had that Tele in a dark brown,,My first real guitar!
is there technique for smaller hands for the solo part? awkward reach from top to middle.
Looks like a big red flag has been waved at Gibson...stand by.
great
That's great
Love it guys...I was learning this song..this is so much help...xxxx
Incredible!!!!
Thanks Jayne, hope to have Skip back on very soon!
good Johnny Cash impression. This coming from someone not right now in the Johnny Cash music phase like I was when I picked up guitar a few years ago(but I will get get back into that mood eventually).Nice intro riff.
Hey Ato, I'll send your regards to Skip, glad you're enjoying the performance! -Rob
Thanks Rob, great guest!
