Love this, Sped. Your content just gets better and better. It’s been awesome seeing your channel grow over the years. Thanks for being a huge inspiration and a great teacher. Looking forward to all the great stuff in 2023. Have a safe holiday 🤘
Brilliant... love it! Saw Robbie play with RP in 83 (Mcr Apollo) and 85 (NEC). He was the perfect foil for Plant at that time whilst he was reinventing himself as a solo artist.
Excellent addition to your most excellent catalog of great lessons! Much thanks to you! I know how I will be spending some of my holiday time off ; ) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Cheers to you and yours Sensei!
OK, I've been getting through this and super appreciate your calm explanation and proper speed. Ship of fools & this lesson are important I think for my guitar repertoire so thank you.
Beautiful! Wish I was well again so I could fully appreciate this. Chronic pain in sucks. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas filled with peace, love, and many blessings!
Thank you! Being ill sucks, my knee is sore at the moment. I’ve been affiliated with this company in the past, but I am on no form of commission etc… you could check out The Tonic in Hebden Bridge UK. Their high-strength CBD patches are really good for easing pain. Had one on my knee recently and lasts for 36 hours.
Perfect way to teach a song. The sections are just short enough and just long enough. (Or as some might say, the perfect length.) And you're funny af. The hardest part was the intro where I had to overheat my car in the rain, but it really helped to get the right feel.
I knew Big Log via Viktor and Alison Krause. Interesting to learn the nuances from your close examination. I tend to noodle around what remains in my head. And its given me the inclination to explore more of Planty's back catalogue.
Wow, that's huge. Like I said in the video I haven't had much of a look online. Sometimes it puts me off making content when I see others covering stuff so I just tend to jump in. Glad you rate the tone.
Hey man :) As usual another awesome lesson bro! I honestly never gave this song much thought about learning but as usual you shed some cool lighting on it. I've been stuck inside Truefire doing some pretty cool Blues type tutorials lately and this was just a nice breath of fresh air 🤟 I'm thinking this will also sound pretty awesome on an acoustic guitar as well too. I'll be practicing this tonight while I'm watching the playoffs ( Yes... fake football as you Brits would probably say ahah! Not soccer 🤣 ). As always thanks! Tommy~
@@SpedSpedding There are some small changes in the double stop portions. Your lesson sounds more like the way that Robbie Blunt played it on the recording. I still appreciate your in detail lesson on the Sultans of Swing. I'm still working on it but I'm making progress.
I knew you would like it Sped 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 Absolutely beautiful Played to perfection Fantastic tutorial 👏👏👏👏 Thanks for the eyebrow tip🤘 it’s going to be invaluable 💯🤣🤣🤣👍 Have a brilliant Christmas and more sped magic in 2023 🙏😎
Honestly, I never heard this song before. So I jumped to the Robert Plant - Big Log (Official Video) and pause yours. I must say your tone is just as tasty as the original, Mate. Thanks for the lessons. I enjoy it. Btw, I hope smoke on the hood just a sfx, and the car just fine.
I drove 4 hours a few weeks ago to go to a Robert Page and Alison Krauss concert. When we were checking into our motel, the lady helping us asked what brought us to town. When we told her, she said "oh I'm so sorry about what happened!" To which we replied, "Why?" and she said,"Oh , you didn't hear? It was canceled." It was canceled about an hour after we started driving. Not rescheduled, CANCELED! The tickets were refunded but it was too late for the motel and gas and everything else we spent to go to it! I wouldn't even care, though, if they rescheduled. That may have been my only chance left to see part of the greatest band ever live! I guess it just wasn't meant to be.
I forgot to say this: To be fair, it was an understandable reason. Alison had the flu. She had been fighting through it at previous shows, so it wasn't a lie. However, I would've been happy to go and watch Plant sing with just backing tracks. At least say you're planning to reschedule, though, even if the time and date are not set yet. The show sold out in about 3 minutes after sales began, so clearly, most people would make the trip again to see it! They could offer the choice of refunds or to wait for the makeup show!
Lol ur such a DUDE!! Honestly I love ur character mate u make learning so good,ur such a great guitarist I see so many on here but u just make things better,the way u explain! And I love ur personality ur so bloody cool.
@@SpedSpedding I loved the intro mate I was in a knot especially the swagger that was so cool mate haha love all ur vids mate there absolutely top of my list mate
Funny - listening to this now I'm really getting a Dire Straits vibe (like the first two albums) from that guitar piece. So lovely. Also - really enjoyed the cinematic bit for the open. I think you're ready for your own Song Remains the Same type movie! Thanks as always for the superb content.
Yeah it has to be the angelic Strat tone plus a deep, dark and moody melody. Also, for anyone who hasn’t seen the original video and then watches this they may just think “why has he filmed himself breaking down?” 🤣🤣🤣
@@SpedSpedding Indeed - I remember the music video very well. In fact I saw Plant live when he toured for that album. Phil Collins was drumming for him. I never got to see LZ so that was pretty special.
Love it! 🪵 My favorite post Zep Plant tune and, my favorite Strat tone of the 80’s. You tee’d this video up nicely Sped! Have a great holiday season. 🎄 P.S. 2nd best Log tune: It's Lo-og, Lo-og, It's big, it's heavy, it's wood. It's Lo-og, Lo-og, It's better than bad, it's good!
@@SpedSpedding Yes I tried to get a friend to learn "The Boys Are Back In Town" but when as he put it, the chords got weird in other words, "these aren't bar chords! why do you always have to play these weird chords? it don't have to be just like just like they played it" so I gave up. But I've always wanted to have a go at "The Cowboy Song" or "Emerald"
I don't even know what to say about this video. It is so perfect. Have been on YT since the day it went live, but this is another level. You have instantly jumped over my other 500 subs to number one. In these times, its just good to know you exist as a thing on TH-cam. From your dessert to rain car breakdown to your most amazing guitar breakdown.... Spoiler: I used to sing in a crappy LZ cover band back in the 80's... Their are literally 5 guitars hanging on my living room walls...right now. I have not touched one in about a year. But you have forced me to learn this backward and forwards... Most excellent job as always Mr. Sped. Now...do " Little by Little" Happy holidays to you and all the Spedletts!
I love this, thanks so much for sharing. 🥺 Every single person who picks up their guitar after watching fills me with inspiration. Honestly, it’s so cool. Hope you enjoyed your close up. 😂 And it was a good job I found that car park or else I’d have been filming in Lidl by Lidl.
@@SpedSpedding Lol. A glass of the Glenlevit at you! I just bought the bottle today! An annual Christmas present to myself. Too expensive otherwise. Jameson is my normal fare.
Great tutorial with a task to entertain yourself for a while to try playing what you taught, I see that this was done a year ago, well today, December 29th, a New Year's greeting and may you have a great 2024, cheers with a whisky, Greetings from the SOUTH of the Hispanic world.
Brilliant Sped! Anyone else think Robert probably asked his guitarist Robbie to "just do Knopfler" The out of phase Strat with fingers (no pick) is just too similar! (and the era)
Oh man, wish I could play lke that. Great vid, helped me a lot.The only problem is still have is getting the sound right. Can you enlighten me how to achieve that? Reverb, delay and a little chorus maybe? Would really appriciate it if you can help me out here.
Sped, Merry Christmas to you the best teacher on TH-cam!!! Please tell me what you did to get that great tone for the lesson. Also....Please teach me the song "In The Evening". I have not forgotten after all the years I have asked you. Haha
I don’t think you’ve mentioned that one before? 👀 🤣 Thanks so much for the kind words and the support. Means a lot. In terms of tone, leave it with me for some decent content.
I was wondering if you had already done this song, just last week as a matter of fact!! Seems like this is Great Music Year, isn't it???!!! A+++++++++++++++ teacher
Post-Zeppelin hi point is Robbie’s guitar 🎸 solo on Thru With The Two-Step tho. Especially on the OG old vinyl LP. But don’t just take my word for it ;-)
I always liked the little solo thing at the start of this song. It really stood out from the crowd back in the day. I will have to remember this video exists and get back to it, because it needs a Strat tone really. My ancient HS3 'more is more' pickups are kaput. I finally worked out the strange buzzy noise when plugged in is microphonic pickups, not a setup issue I could fix with an allen key. To diagnose I just talked to my Strat like I had lost my marbles and pressed record in Reaper. Sure enough my voice was on the play back. P.S. I still miss England where I grew up, but that somewhat Black Sabbath looking scene at the beginning reminds me of how much doing three paper rounds every morning during early 1980s English winters sucked. NZ these days. No Jaffa Cakes. The chippy does not have vinegar. They think football is for girls. They think ugg ball with the dinosaur egg shaped ball is for men (rugby union - in case I was too cryptic there). Other than that it's alright.
Haha yeah, that’s just a typical day in the north. 🐺 Btw if you haven’t seen the original video, you might not get it. Glad that you’ve diagnosed the problem, you’ll get it fixed no problem. The way your phrased it made it sound like you just shouted at your guitar and it sorted itself out. 🤣
Oooo nice little surprise to see this pop up on my YT feed.. Great opening video, instantly thought “Big Log”.. Before I grab the guitar for this one I feel the need to rummage through my wardrobe for a cap sleeve t shirt and maybe ( to really do it justice ) pop down to boots and get a home perm kit!.. hmm maybe not 😉 Such a classic cool and atmospheric intro.. love it.. great lesson as always!!!
Haha, you recognised the desert yeah? Whilst you're out shopping can you pick me up a vintage sports car too? I’ll meet you after I’ve had my perm done.
Hi Sped. Merry Christmas. Greetings from Oldham, home of the Tubular Bandage. In the last video you asked about favourite Planty tunes. Well, I went out and bought Pictures at Eleven when it was first released (yes, I'm that old), and I had a stab at playing Pledge Pin. Moonlight in Samosa is also epic. One question, are your eyebrows floating or hard-tail?
That’s very cool Michael. Used to spend a bit of time up your way. Had an ex girlfriend in Uppermill. Nice part of the north. Great suggestions and thanks for watching. Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas too. 🎄🙌🏻
Hello Sped! Great lesson as always! I saw the Principle of Moments tour in Houston, TX back in real time (80s). Great stuff! What effects do you use for this? Are you in Strat middle position?
Thanks so much! And wow, how cool, wish I could have been there. For this track I went between 2nd and 4th positions. 2nd for the performance and 4th for the lesson. Don’t ask me why. 🤣
I knew it! Past two videos I’ve noticed them playing a strong part. Last night when I was going to bed I heard them talking about what video they want to do next. 🫣
Hands down the best guitar teacher on youtube.
I mean, what’s not to love? Thanks so much! 🎄🥰
Yep totally.
What a cool lesson - so much eye- brow- fun🥳🥳😜
Wow just what i needed, thanks. Excelent explained and on a relaxed way to. Gonna learn it to do you and Robert Plant justice... Happy 2023.
I subbed after watching this and learning the song. Great teacher with some personality to make it fun!
You make learning so nice and calm!!! So precise and easily understood!! Thank you Sped! 🥰🥰🥰
You are so welcome Robin! Thanks for watching.
Love this, Sped. Your content just gets better and better. It’s been awesome seeing your channel grow over the years. Thanks for being a huge inspiration and a great teacher. Looking forward to all the great stuff in 2023. Have a safe holiday 🤘

Great lesson. I really enjoy your content and humor. Congratulations on your work with Sophie and I hope you guys hit it big time
Thanks so much, that means a lot.
Great video, love the intro bit. Great song.
Great video my friend. Love the tone the chords sound great. Happy New Year to you & Gabby.
Great tune. Great lesson as always. Thanks Sped! 👍🏻
My pleasure! 🙌🏻
Thank you...one of my playlist
I'm learning, just found my favorite teacher. many others are great, although I know and love exactly what you are teaching
Awesome 👍🏻😎!!!
GREAT Work!!! Loved the Lesson!!!
Thank You.
My pleasure!
Splendid lesson Sped . Top notch !
Thank you Steve!
This is just the coolest upload ever, Sped. And I'm glad to have it. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
Thank you my friend! Means a lot. Same to you. 🎄🙌🏻
Sped's Big Yule Log -what a lovely thing to wake up to on Christmas! Beautiful song and love your tone. All the best to you!
Happy holidays David! Hope you had a good one. 🎄
Great choice So many great songs to choose from loved desert rose and 29 palms too
29 Palms is an absolute tune. I had it on in the car coming home from filming the intro. 😂
Smashing! Thank you so much for this.😁
You are so welcome!
As mostly a prog rock drummer I loved learning Big Log on guitar! It's a great Robbie Blunt riff! Loved always the chorused verb clean sound! Thx
Great stuff. Love this song
Thank you! Me too. 🪵

Well done Sped ... Well done ...
Thank you!
Yes, thank you
No problem, thanks for watching. 🪵
Entertaining and educational. Going the extra mile to film the intro on location was well worth it. 👍
Haha thank you Dudley. Nothing like driving around for an hour looking for an empty space. To film yourself breaking down. 🤣
Big Log riff rules all. Perfect driving song.
Could do with swapping cars with Planty. 🤣
Perfect way to teach a song. The sections are just short enough and just long enough. (Or as some might say, the perfect length.) And you're funny af. The hardest part was the intro where I had to overheat my car in the rain, but it really helped to get the right feel.

Uhm, I think Big Log is the winner. I agree….. And I thoroughly enjoyed the remake of the Big Log video! 😂That was great! Thanks for the lesson!

Your's is the clearest explanation of how to play this riff. I can play it but I'll have to change a few things after watching your video.
What you gonna swap out Brad? Got anything to trade? 😏

Fantastic tutorial 👏👏👏👏

Covered this a few months back but I will be back on it with your version, the opening of this video was sublime 😂
🤣🤣 glad you liked that. A bit of fun, I need to do more of it.
@@SpedSpedding It's an awesome piece of guitar work, working on ship of fools right now.
Great lesson. How about doing thru with the two step. Haven’t ever seen that one online!!!
I love Rainbow, such a great vibe to it. Great intro btw😂
Thank you Cullen! 😂😂😂 Nice to get out of the house.
Best intro yet! So close to 100k!
I know right! It’s a crazy cool number. Glad you liked the intro. May change the thumbnail as I’m not sure how many people will get it. 🤣
hell yeah i know this is going to be good!!! your version at the beginning OMG SO AMAZING!!!
and the ending omg dude you got the stuff man Sped. You got the soul brother!

Brilliant Sped! Anyone else think Robert probably asked his guitarist Robbie to "just do Knopfler" The out of phase Strat with fingers (no pick) is just too similar! (and the era)
Even if he had asked that, to pull it off so beautifully takes some serious talent. Robbie is a badass.

Nice one Nicholas, it was a Big Log landslide in the end. Pleasure to dust off Ship of Fools though! 🙏🏻
Great playing great lesson great song I was just on podcast unbox this channel is definitely a a lot better
Ah thanks David. I am not familiar with that channel.
Box Guitar and then he opens the box almost every episode
If yer asking, "In the Mood" and "Other Arms" would be great. Robbie Blunt was so distinctive on Plant's first three solo albums.
Yeah his style and tone is iconic. I’d say a little underrated tbh. I’ve got a lot of love for the sounds of those early records. 🥰

That’s very cool Michael. Used to spend a bit of time up your way. Had an ex girlfriend in Uppermill. Nice part of the north.
Great suggestions and thanks for watching. Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas too. 🎄🙌🏻
Hello Sped! Great lesson as always! I saw the Principle of Moments tour in Houston, TX back in real time (80s). Great stuff! What effects do you use for this? Are you in Strat middle position?
Thanks so much! And wow, how cool, wish I could have been there. For this track I went between 2nd and 4th positions. 2nd for the performance and 4th for the lesson. Don’t ask me why. 🤣
When i first heard the title I thought 🤔 it was a tune about taking a crap 💩 🚽 because its all I ever drop are Big Logs
Hi Sped, amazing lesson as usual, but what´s the Fender guitar model you are using please?. Thanks.
It’s my 2013 Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster Trans White.
U are a bad ass teacher clear view
Thank you Michael!
Hi, thinking of joining your patreon. Is there an address I could ask few questions?
Tia the season, all the food, some constipation, then…big log.
Haha, yeah I think you're spot on to be honest Jim. Don't forget the whiskey!
It is definitely the eye brows that are controlling the whammy bar and NOT the other way round.
I knew it! Past two videos I’ve noticed them playing a strong part. Last night when I was going to bed I heard them talking about what video they want to do next. 🫣
Big Log... and 29 Palms!
29 Palms is out in full force today. Taken over the comments for sure.
What kind of compressor are you running?
Since you’re doing Plant, can you also do In the Mood?
Depends what mood I’m in…
🤣
