Hey everyone! I hope you enjoy the video. That last lick will be the death of me honestly hahaha.
What would you like me to learn on camera next? 😁🎸
Sweet!! Please do eruption please please PLEASE 😎 🤞
Eruption please🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Fred Bear by Uncle Ted (Nugent of course)
Your videos are always entertaining, You really are a great guitarist.
What about 'Still got the blues' or 'Pride and joy' (Solos) for the next video of the serie.
Sorry about my english, greetings from Mexico!
Always a dangerous question, inevitably someone says Fire and Flames 😂
Let me know how it goes. I've been "working" on this song for decades now.
Mike! Nice to see you on here!
I played with my ear when I was young I will try again Today 🙏
And that's the reason why I didn't select you as my guitar teacher.
@@chrisking6695 unnecessary comment, he is a great guitarist and you are only hurting yourself in the future by not learning from someone skilled.
@@chrisking6695 edgy boy
This is how I learn to play songs... Especially back before The Internet. I can appreciate the struggle. This is great ear training.
The intro and the last few lines are the hardest. It's pretty sweet because you get to the end of the song and then fook up the outro and have to go back to the start and re-record. Fun times. Waiting on yours, Burrell
Your guitars tone is so warm, one of the best tones I’ve ever heard
Man, your timing is excellent. Great feel, especially for a difficult song like this that you just learned.
Damn, you really did a great job with this!
Slowing it down like that gives it a cool and smooth bluesy lick, nice work Sophie!
Learning one of the worlds greatest electric guitar players music, is never going to be easy. That's why Eric is one of the best in the world.
Amazing seeing your playing by ear skills!
As someone who’s tried to learn this before the fact you did that well in an hour and a half is unbelievably impressive. Insane.
Great video! Love seeing the process, not just the final product. I think more beginner and intermediate guitarist need to see videos like this. Amazing as always and much love 🙏♥️🙌🎸
Man that last lick is just so good!
I love your tone, it sounds so good and dynamic with the volume
the final result I saw already, this explains why you seem to have the actual feel, because you looked at the riffs in many positions and approaches , thanks for the inspiration , I know a couple riffs from this tune but their are way easier EJ songs for me to attempt Thanks!
Insane skills.
Could be way too niche, but the solo from “Drive home - Steven Wilson” is an insane solo full of passion. I reckon you’d smash it
Hi Sophie, at 75 I've just bought my first electric guitar!
Heeeelp!!!
Love your skills!
probs not best song to learn on ur first guitar haha itlll take months to master it
@@SausageDawg months?!?! He doesn't have that long!
@@SausageDawg It takes years to master especially if you are just a beginner!
Absolutely nailed it Sophie!! Your phrasing and tone are both incredible! 🙌
So refreshing to see a video of a musician learning a song through sheer talent kudos to you.. I also feel that this is always a great way to learn and find your own licks and ideas along the way
Don't beat yourself up. It's a great piece of work. Had a teacher said "it's 90 % remembering and 10% talent. He made me sick, but he was and is that good. Thanks miss and Nick Greathouse. You folks rock
just came from watching your reel on insta and i loveddd being able to see the process. the fact you can play even THAT much of it WHOO!
That’s still absolutely insane how close it sounds. It would take me months to get half of that even
This has always been one of my favs, can't wait to hear the whole thing 🙂
I feel your pain. Years ago we had albums that we learned from. The turntable cartridges sure took a beating.
You absolutely rock, and I love your funny comments through this. Awesome work. Love this song
This is awesome. I love how your showing the process. making it funny and fun. And ALOT of people who wanna get into guitar i think who are just listeners, and they dont really understand the process of sitting there for HOURS playing somthing over and over and over intill you got it. To a listener its magic because they didnt see the person do the work. Then you get the people who say "Its was a gift!" and believe it to be true. It was not a gift, It was not just given. it was achieved. I love this content.
This is refreshing, it looks exactly like when I learn a song. The "I forgot what I just did". I felt that.
First time I saw Eric Johnson was on Austin City Limits, totally amazed me. One of my favorites.
You won my subscription!!!! You’re really good!!!! I got to do what you do, play by ear more and different songs to get outta my comfort zone. 👏👏👏👏
Nicely done Sophie!
You are so freakin talented! It was a pleasure watching your method of learning such a difficult piece.❤
Hi Sophie, Fantastic to watch you work through this classic and to see the process in action.. this opening lick is such an epic for me and along with other classics of “widely guitar” such as the lick to “green tinted 60’s mind” are just so epic & iconic and dam tricky to do right… great work 🎸🤘🏼😎
watching this made my day not because of your struggle but because of your no giving up mentality awesome young lady keep jamming God bless cant tell you how many times i gave up lol still never could get it some humans are gods
You did a great job in such a short amount of time! To make the progress you did, I'd have to spend many days. I really enjoyed seeing your learning process and hope that you post more like this. Seeing you work through the musical process gives me hope that time invested is not time lost. In the end, you really sounded great!
Cliffs of Dover, one of my all time favorites! You did great Sophie!
You are such an inspiration Sophie !
You're amazing!!. Great Job!. Keep going!. I'm looking forward to see your full song cover.😎🤘🏻💪🏼
Wow! That is a monster lick into that song.. You're awesome Sophie, well done!!💚
I love Eric Johnson and this song in particular. I've always wanted to learn it but never attempted. Watching you struggle and prevail was quite inspirational. Thank you for this video and all the best to you!
You are awesome. I greatly appreciate you sharing the process and struggles.
Yesss!!! I knew it would be Cliffs of Dover!
Impressive! As someone who has struggled for years trying to get chunks of that song down, watching someone more talented pick it apart was very helpful. Nice editing as well.
What a tone! Really diggin it!
Your one of the best out there! Really dig your feel and warmth. Try doing some Jeff Beck he's so unique. Paints with a whole different palate.
First of all, excellent job!! It really didn't take you very long to "re-learn" it. You rocked it!! Many years ago I learned it from the tab and with the help of a great teacher. In some ways, the intro is actually the hardest because it is not only so iconic but as you said, it is in free time so it is harder to nail. I never got it up to speed but man was it fun to try. The rest of the song is easier compared to the intro. Still a hard tune to get but learning the whole thing took my playing to a whole new level. I still mess around with it as exercises especially the main theme and the intro. The rest of the song is in time so you can use a metronome to work on it. The main theme is really fun once you get it. I hope you decide to do a cover once you get it. The two things that made it click for me were his use of wide spread arpeggios on the ascending bits and the descending mix of 4's, 5's and 6's (with some triplets mixed in) changing positions as he descends. They are mostly pentatonic with some passing tones or unique chordal transitional notes as he goes. This is signature Eric Johnson style stuff. I never mastered the song but went back many times to give myself a workout and test my chops. I also one day hope to be able to master the cascading descending licks and roll them into my solos. Hope you show us the rest of the song sometime soon. Keep rocking!! Love the channel!
LOVE this channel!!!
Discovered you from the newest issue of Guitar World, congrats on that by the way!!!Enjoying your channel very much!!! Especially the “Cliffs of Dover” vids!!! Love your tone and technique as well!!! Thank you for sharing this with the world!!!
Total respect. I think you did an amazing attempt. I saw Eric in concert at Birmingham and he played Cliffs of Dover. One of my all time faves and absolutely mind blowing how he plays it, with so much ease.
Your picking hand is perfect!
You rocked that! Very difficult to play because a lot of it doesn’t follow basic structure. Great song choice to try and I definitely would like to see more of these type of videos
Really enjoyed it Sophie you are very humble your playing on this elite piece was amazing I know we all strive to be as accurate as we can but even if the exercise teaches us new techniques I know I'm happy. Thank you for sharing the process 🙏
I'd love to see you do the main guitar solo to Rush - La Villa Strangiato.
This! And the Exit Stage Left version where he goes off at the end
It's simple if your ok with I and m. Rh fingering a la flamenco , checkout sabicas now that's hard
Amazing! You inspired me to revisit this song and try to learn it again!
I very much appreciate all your hard work on this! You are so smooth you make it seem effortless although I feel the the tension that goes into doing this. I’m the old days I used to turn the record player down to 16 Fromm 33 and keep picking up the needle and dropping it back. Although it was in a different key you could get the jist of it. Cliffs of Dover is so much more over the top than the lead to Zeps Rock n Roll or I’m Going Home. You were definitely born to be a guitarist. Keep up the good work very inspiring God Bless take care of those hands!
I worked with Eric Johnson at a gig in 1990! What a great guy and an amazing performer!!! Good luck on a most difficult song!!! Watch the live video!!!
Brilliant tune love it and a fantastic challenge Sophie. 👏👏👏
You are amazing Sophie! I have tried and abandoned this song so many times over the years. It's a beast of a song ... well above my abilities.
I often learn songs by hear and found myself relating so much to you saying "something like that" in the beginning. Great vid!
awesome job been playing for 30 years this is a hard song to play well done. i am still worrking on this one ty.
Nice work. That sounded awesome!
Your AMAZING . Keep up the hard work .
Incredible skill sophie love the new guitar 💛💛you are a fast learner
Great vid Sophie keep going, you’re awesome.
Amazing job well done Sophie 👍🏻
Amazing job….I’ve listened to that song a thousand times…that was pretty damn close, and the tone was really great!! Love it!!
Sounds class, bravo Sophie.
Things like this are so important for us to see, Sophie. Some of us just sigh, unplug our wretched axes and go watch tv. And that’s just trying to play scales straight! Hugs to you for this.
Dobry sposób na zachęcanie ludzi zdolnych do gry na gitarze. Brawo za tak ciekawie wykonywaną pracę i cały wkład w nią.GRATULACJE.❤
Amazing Sophie. Really love your work.
Hi Sophie, I know you think this is something we are generally not interested in seeing but.... please have it be known this is very entertaining, I don't know if it is because I myself am a hobbyist musician and I enjoy seeing how other musicians learn songs and kind of feel myself reflected like "ah! it's very humbling seeing others the way I at times sit down and try to learn music myself!" I don't know what other words to put to describe it but I think these are fun videos to make. anyway I enjoyed it and was smiling the whole time.
I'm pretty sure every Eric Johnson fan has this song as their number one but I am no different, it's such a joy this song so magical so filled with awesomeness
specially because I do not know how to sight read so I have to rely on my ear, it's been like that for me for the past 20 years since I picked up a bass guitar for the first time so I feel you! and I'm not even a guitar player!
Really enjoyed the video. Every hour spent on Eric Johnson is a joy! Cliffs keeps circling in my work-on-it list- has been for years! Many of us remember the 60's when we stacked quarters on the tone arm of the record player to slow down the speed; which also changed the pitch-ha! I also count the number of notes in a phrase like you do and create muscle memory by converting the feel of the sequence to fit a standard counting-- then add the feel back in when playing for real. I don't use headphones- have to give it a try... just amazing slow downer and neutral studio monitors. Best of luck with this series!
Cliffs over Dover is such a great riff. Eric Johnson was such an underrated guitarist.
So true !!!!
@MAIN well since Cliffs over Dover was released in 1990 let’s see who was “popular” back then….Eddie Van Halen, Slash, George Lynch, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Angus Young, Kirk Hammett, Steve Vai and Yngwie Malmsteen so yeah he’s underrated when compared to those guys.
awesome Sophie.. great playing, great video
You are an amazing guitar player. Always look forward to new music from you. 😍🎶🎸💖💘
Great Video Sophie.
Incredible video SOPHIE. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the awesome work. Keep the videos coming. Hope you have an amazing day. Much love from the EAST COAST USA
Well worth all the effort, it sounds beautiful so far
Love the silver sky great work wish you well
Buenísimo video Sofía. Muy profesional
It’s a great guitar song, nice to hear you affirm that
great musical energy!!! fun enjoyable video
You are phenomenal!!!! Love watching how flawlessly you pick up a song and match it to a tee. ROCK ON!!!! (Do you do any Journey or genesis?)
This is awesome, one of my favorite songs! I would love to hear some steve vai stuff in the future. 🙂
Wow, great job! You're awesome!
Hey Sophie. In the 70s and 80s, even when CDs had arrived in the mid 80s, many albums were not available on Cd and so we used vinyl records to learn from. I became a master of finding the exact point at which I needed to place the needle to find the solo or even a part of the solo. Maybe try it and see what happens?
That sounded great in the end!
I was chuffed when I learnt the main chorus melody 😂 but the intro is on another level. You did an insanely good job.
I love how you put that out there girl I love how you put that out there and you have shown progress be proud 🗿
This gave me the motivation to try to learn Cliffs of Dover’s intro (AGAIN)… Thanks Sophie for ruining my week end, I’ll think about you during my pentatonic struggles😂
Impressive start! Good stuff great ear
Awesome video, showing the frustrations we ALL go thru...LOL
What is your home setup sounds great!!
Love how passionate you play guitar.
Took me hours to get the first bit of the intro down.. played it back and realized that got me 15 seconds into the song 😅 kudos for this choice. EJ made this one tricky. Goes in and out of comfortable pentatonics and lots of time signature and tempo changes.. hard to even use a metronome to play along with.. your tone is awesome btw
The descending run at the very beginning when it shifts to the index finger on the 4th fret is so hard not to lose timing
You nailed it! Great job lady!
I could listen to you play all day🎸🎼🎶🎵
as a BEGINNER guitarist, the way you make playing look so easy while my fingers seem to have a mind of their own is crazy 😭
Well, unless you're doing things slowly making sure you got them super good before speeding up
That's probably part of the problem
Keep playing, practice basic scales and chord changes. Your finger dexterity and speed will improve before you know it. I also put down my guitar for a few weeks after playing almost non stop for six months. I was shocked by how easy it all came back to me and that I actually had improved, so I think it’s important to take breaks too.
"Every guitar player should have learn it"
That's so true ❤
That was a great job. That's a really hard piece. Love the color of your PRS.
You are amazing! Just wow
Great series! I lasted about 15 minutes trying to figure out the first six seconds and my head is swimming. Respect for grinding on it for two hours!
