    Harrison, Doublestops, slide, those delicious chords, octave fuzz... Prime Haugen, right here. Man, I've been here since early on, june 2019, when I found you with bell bottom blues. I gotta say, the Haugenism is powerful in this one. Listening to this, I am as happy as you get when playing this progression. My new favorite, for whatever it is worth!

    Gorgeous song. One of those songs that you wish would never end.
    So much like 'Something' in George's style, in that the chord progression is based on changing one descending note to create a new chord.
    Like here, you're hearing D C# C A in the verse chords. Beautiful music.

    Dang, Eric! Great lesson.
    I heard quite a few George-isms in the melody. Always something to work on.

    Wow, what a wonderful coincidence: I was just playing this last night after years of not playing it. This tune is beautifully hypnotic. It swirls and takes me in. along my favorite tunes of all time. Cannot wait to dive into your rendition. Tedeschi Trucks have played this for years. Well worth checking out their various live versions.

    Thanks for this! (and the rest of your videos) You have just inspired me after wanting to learn slide guitar for so long and I have just ordered a slide. Harrison's songwriting and slide playing is truly something else. Being one of my favorite musicians I would love more videos about slide guitar and Harrison's style. Thanks again for all you do! =)

    Beautiful slide playing! Also, the way you arranged the changes reminds me of Elliott Smith.

  • @InsolentMusicalPeasant

    Any time I hear slide guitar, I have to listen to The Allman Brothers Band. Just sounds so cool.

  • @danielakerman8241
    @danielakerman8241 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Beautiful playing and great explanation of a beautiful song. All the chords are right, but from what I understand, George played this with a capo at the 5th fret, using D-chord shapes. That's how he plays it in the one live video that exists of him performing this.

      Aha that does sound more correct I just tried it there!

    Lovely progression Eric! Would throwing in a Cm/G resolving to G in the last bar be blasphemy? Take care man.

  • @donindri
    @donindri ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So when someone comes up with a really cool progression, how much is due to a knowledge of music theory, and how much is due to a regular sprinkling of one’s guitar with lots of Pizza dust? Thanks for posting
