Thanks for always championing a low stress and kind way of learning music Eric. We all need to be kinder to ourselves. Just spent some time audiating some of these old melodies and I felt my neurons making connections!
Please teach us more about christian song.. im learning to play at church.. your lesson are useful for me..thank you
Love the music stuff. That room though... Beautiful hopeful morning light. Seems perfect for this song. Down to the River... Thank you. I'm filled with ideas to try . Now all I need is a guitar and an amp.
Eric’s a wonderful teacher. His style is friendly and inviting. The examples he plays are so very musical and the tutorials easy to understand. Thank you Eric for sharing your knowledge and insight with those of us that want to learn to play guitar 🎸
Another old melody I love is O Holy Night. The B section when "fall on your knees" comes in is so moving.
There’s a great technique that’s, for me, worth this whole video, and that’s the walk down with the pinky finger from the 3rd of E maj. , hit the B note and slide up a whole step, then end on the final chord.
I want that tone🎸👍
Thank You! You have the beautiful gift of teaching.
Such an important lesson. I'm not particularly flash or technical, but I find that nuanced phrasing makes up for a lot of perceived deficiencies.
BIG TIME😎👍👍
😎✌👍❤🖖
3:22 B-A-E progression doing the rounds once again 😊 (Sister Golden Hair and my favorite, So Far Away by Dire Straits). I was fortunate that my father, starting when I was very young, sang to me so many Czech folk songs and lullabies before bed that I derive the greatest joy in working them out by ear on the guitar when the mood strikes. He was a superb musician, even though he couldn’t play an instrument, other than his voice of course. Eric - Perfect tempo in teaching, perfect tone in playing. Thank you for another wonderful lesson.
Thank You Eric ..... Find your lessons extremely helpful ... and your playing so smooth and enjoyable to listen to . Your down by the River playing is beautiful .....
I had just challenged myself just this last week to learn Apache - the Shadows for a single guitar. This dove tails right into this. 😊
Love it man. I've heard Derek Trucks talk for a long time about singing through the instrument and really playing what you hear. Have spent years trying to pick out basic melodies. Haven't seen that many lessons that actually go through how this can work and methods for doing it. Really solid, helpful stuff man. I tried to smart my way around it for a long time with theory, but eventually you get to a place you gotta be able to hear. Thanks.
Sweet! I love rootsy gospel guitar.
"Mary had a little lamb. Piece of cheese. Slice of ham." 🙂 I've been spending more time of late recognizing the triads and their inversions within each CAGED shape. That effort really helped me follow this lesson. Been using that skill to develop little solo breaks for some of the songs in my repertoire by using the triad as a landing point and then using scale notes to connect to the next triad. Just like you're doing in this lesson. My thinking is the triads will give my audience "trail markers" during my solo. Good stuff! Happy Friday. Homemade pizza was eaten.
Thank you for this lesson - I feel like a whole world just opened up. I bought the transcription too, which was super helpful because I was having trouble figuring out where the melody starts and then I saw there's a pick up. :)
Great to see Eric is still handing out life lessons ❤
I'm running the melody down, throwing in some open-string bass Es. However, I love the picture of Eric over the speakers, which pays tribute to Warren Zevon: Werewolves of Carrboro. I saw a werewolf drinking a Pina Colada in Cat's Cradle... his hair was perfect.💯
I'm pretty sure that's a picture of Canadian magician Doug Henning - though Eric might be considered a magician on the 6-strings. :-)
You rock Eric thank you man
Thank you, Eric
I stumbled across figuring out "Amazing Grace" a few months ago while playing. A happy little accident.
I appreciate the lesson.
Be good to you 🙏🏻🤍
Hope your Friday was awesome ✌️🍕
You could add double stops to it and gussy it up too!
Thanks for lesson, man. I love all that you do.
Such a great lesson, this is something I’ve figured out fairly recently. Just chillin with the acoustic on the couch and picking out nursery rhymes
This lesson connected two songs together for me. Rock & Roll by Kingfish and John Mayer’s Slow Dancing. I could hear the latter inside the former but I wondered why. Of course the simple answer is the chord progression, but I wanted to know why both artists ended up with the songs. I think the answer now is Gospel music. It’s no secret how influential gospel music was on the blues. I don’t know the entire history of either - maybe they influence one another - but I do know my old blues teacher mentioning Gospel a lot and how important it was to Blues. I believe the artists of those two songs I mentioned knowingly started with a Gospel melody and developed their ideas from there.
I have found that singing the Major and minor pentatonic scales when playing guitar until I can sing them without playing to be really helpful for my ear, forgot about all the kids songs. Same principle I think. Thanks for posting
Really love the new set up.
Such a great lesson, really enjoyed it. once again, you're a fantastic teacher
Very cool Eric. Nice seeing your studio room. Your video's always have the soft warm lighting. Seeing those softboxes high on the stand's tells all. The mix of natural light with the umbrellas well done and your vids always in high quality focus! I bet you have a Fujifilm X100V or Ricoh GR3 in the house for personal photography. Oh yeah, this is a guitar lesson channel so thank you for your soundscapes and interior lightscapes! Happy Friday, Rock on brother.
Another amazing lesson. Gonna really work on the O Brother Where Art Thou track. Never realized how simple and moving it really is
Great lesson and connection.
I really buy into this, Eric. I will sit down and play melodies I heard in Sunday School like "Jesus Loves the Little Children". Or more gospel like "What a Friend We Have in Jesus". And don't leave out "Happy Birthday to You". Thanks.
What a fantastic video have a good weekend Eric ❤😊
So nice to see your "office" in the very first seconds of this video!
Thanks! I learned something today 🔥
So good man, thank you.
Hi Eric, Love your instructional videos and selection of music to illustrate musical concepts. May I politely request that you someday make a video on Dave Rawlings' beautiful guitar intro to his song ""Airplane".
I saw Victor Wooten do a wonderful version of "Amazing Grace" with harmonics that I kinda do as a warmup. Great video.
Dammit. Tough love, just what i needed but didn't want to force myself to do. Thanks Eric. Another great lesson!
Many latin american folk songs (with spanish, italian or native roots) are Pentatonic minor (harmonic minor comes into also). There is some asian feeling (which is true in historic terms). Very valuable lesson. Thanks Eric!
Excellent information, Thanks
That longbottom hellllll yea dude. Been wanting some slower jams
nice morning light shot too fits the gospel theme of the vid
SPOT ON, WELL DONE
Some kind of synchronicity going on here Eric - I play in a choir and sadly we are performing this song (acapella) at a friend's funeral this Thursday. 😢 Looking forward to our lesson this week....
Excellent.
Hey, nice digs Eric! No wonder you're inspired to fill it with great music.
Great advice as ever Eric 👍 👍
Ah, weekend homework. My favorite.
Amazing lesson wow and that guitar is an eye stunning beauty, Peace !
O thou that telleth good tidings to Zion, stuck in my melody mind since high school choir. Cultural appropriation of GF Handel? Great stuff!
Perfect.
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way!
O brothers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on brothers let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way!
O mothers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on mothers let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way!
O fathers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on fathers let's go down
Down in the river to pray
;)
Erie canal has some minor elements. One of the first songs I played on my baritone ukes.
Feel is #1😎👍
Great lesson Eric😎👍👍
😎✌👍❤🖖
Music from our childhood for easy exercise?😅 My parents did JS Bach a lot to us.😂 But i remembrr some easier stuff too.😊
Thx for engouraging!!!❤😊
Great Stuff!
I am interested in the D20 you have back there. How do you think it would sound with a tele playing blues?
Oh yeah it’s good for everything!
Christmas tunes are also great for connecting DNA-engrained melodies to your fingers.

Guitar playing aside, my favourite thing about Eric's videos is that he often looks like he's sneaking out a burp. For example in this video at 0:46 - I fully expected a huge burp. Don't keep the burps in, Eric bro.
(Holding in fart too)
My fav song is "down in mississipi" by Pops Staple
Pops is the GOAT!
@@EricHaugenGuitar oh yeah !
Jesus On The Mainline next please!
I like the things you want me to learn
Tasty!
When he played Will th Circle Be Unbroken, did anyone else's mind go straight to Bioshock Infinite?
And dire straits on the bae
I've been asking a lot of guitar teacher if they can break down the guitars on moby grapes debut record. I think there are a lot of good techniques on songs like 8:05 and hey grandma, Omaha. Great songs, but it's hard to try to cover em.
Berkley shmerkley lol I’m 😂
Nice t shirt. Made me laugh
Jesus Loves You All
Can't think of anything less rock n roll then gospel
Spiritualized would like a word. th-cam.com/video/pm9bHHnz-cg/w-d-xo.html
the Popeye song
Greensleeves?
Kinda! That one’s actually melodic minor - pretty weird!
jewish folk songs?
