Let It Bleed has since it's release been my favorite Stones album. Every track is a gem. Excellent tutorial.
Mine as well.
In my book, 'Monkey Man' is one of the Stones' top 10 greatest songs. And that's saying a lot because the Stones have more than 100 bona-fide classics.
amen
Top 5 for me. 👍
agreed
Where can I get a copy of your "book"?
Whammy Bard When this record was first released I didn’t get it (still don’t on Exile) there was a lot of hoop la and so on but this was the time of AM radio. As soon as I heard it on a decent stereo and then heard gimme shelter then I got it though ironically it was recorded and released in mono not stereo. But agree, midnight rambler, shelter, you can’t always get are some of the cornerstones of rock
The Stones were all about the hook and groove! Such a great song !
Been about 40 yrs since I learned this song, mix that standard with an open G guitar and your there.
You can't go wrong when you teach folks old Stones tunes!
Thanks for teaching the younger crowd these great ol songs and helping to keep guitar alive✌
Words of wisdom , Sir !
One of the best licks of all time.
Brilliant breakdown (of how to do it).
Hands down best guitar channel on TH-cam! Or at least my favourite for sure haha
Mine too...no joke
If you want to know how to really play a tune, this is the spot. 🔥🔥
@@GregHartnett truer words have never been said
Yes, some of these chords are so fantastic and fit so well. I never realized how well it's put together.
Oh you know that juicy little hammer on? And it alternates and gets a little lazier in the timing every other one. It's so brilliant and I can't get it out of my head. Doesn't help that I love Martin Scorsese movies lol
Amazing job transposing an amazing song by an even more amazing player. So right that Keith never plays a tune exactly the same way twice, even during one take. I guess that's the ultimate secret sauce for how he got all those incredible variations for his parts on so many of those classic recordings.
The best lessons by far!! No BS, great, song selections and he kills it everytime. You really know how to teach. You have a true gift for it. Can't say thanks enough for putting it out there!!
Man, off the charts mix and sound to start this lesson. Earbuds and through my sound system, both fantastic. Great song choice too!
Classic Keef riff! Love this, thank you.
I've only occasionally played around with this song and the capo never crossed my mind. SCHOOLED!!
yeah that second fret capo is the magic on that one in fact most of the stuff on Let It bleed Keith did with a standard tuning and a the Let It bleed title track is the same way he capoed and standard tuned on midnight rambler too. gimme Shelter was interesting one with the slide guitar so there was an open E tuning I believe on.
although from sticky fingers on his when Keith would discover the Telecaster yank off that bottom low E string and play with 5 strings and use a lot of open G tuning on almost everything from on.
From one guitarist to another awesome lesson I totally forgot how to play it. And yes where the hell did time go! I'm just grateful I grew up during the best years of music
Your fantastic for knowing this and especially for teaching it. I've played around with this song when it first came out and had some grasp of it. Now I feel I know so much more about it. And you teach the dynamics too!
Thanks so much. You are my favorite guitar teacher. Keith is, of course, sublime.
Andy - Great song choice, lesson, and breakdown. Been following you since your first (earliest post) on the My Les Paul Forum. Sending another donation your way this afternoon as I know these vids and lessons don't just come together in a day...Thanks for the dedication! If I may be so bold, would love to see a lesson of Marc Ford's Cry, Moan & Wail (arranged for one guitar). Love that funky acoustic blues rhythm and I don't believe anyone has ever broken down this gem of a song. Thanks again Andy!
This is the best lesson I’ve seen on you tube. The little nuances are so important and translated perfectly. Awesome job.
Well done friend I so admire people that can work that stuff out sounded really good trying to break down someone elses feel not an easy task excellently done Thanks a lot
Your selection of tune-age is top notch. Like the others, been playing classic rock from the early 70’s,(it was just “rock” back then). Never did learn this one so thanks. All you young’uns, take heed!
Truly, the best rendition of this song on TH-cam!
Excellent run down on intro and chords. All while adjusting the guitar and never missing a lick. Superb playing!
I saw a previous tutorial for this and had been playing it that way for a year, but as soon as I seen the notification, it's as if I never played it before in my life, I'll learn it from scratch.
Oh man this is unbelievable, thank you so much! 👍🏻🙏
Man .... your playing really inspires me to get it right. Thanks so much
Best one of these I've seen so far - the rhythm from the right hand is on point.
Hands down the best instruction for this difficult Stones' classic. Thanks.
When I was around 12, 1967, I was in Greenwich Village with my best friend. His mom worked in the Empire State Bldg. So we would left to our devices. Walking down Bleeker Street, I walked into a record store and purchased my first 45. A copy of Honky Tonk Womanl, by The Rolling Stones. Soon after, buying The Doors, Light My Fire. Then I was off to the races. in 1969 I was 14. My dad's best buddy was president of Philadelphia University. We rented a farm from his family. He gave us 2nd row seats to The Rolling Stones to my entire family, Mom, Dad, me and 2 little sisters. Talk about crazy... LOL. Anyway, Been playing guitar since I was 16. And these lessons here are the best on the internet! No shit!! Donate to Andy... he is working so hard to make all this seem easy. Some tunes I've played all my life and taking an updated lesson from this makes me realize that I learned this stuff by ear, and it was mostly wrong. It worked. but it was not correct. All these videos are correct, showing the best way to play the tunes for you young guns out there wanting to be our next Rock Stars... Just Donate some cash, Got It? Thanks Andy, another fantastic video, for the record.....
Hi Peter. I always enjoy your comments! Thanks for supporting what I do, I really apprciate it. Cheers, Andy.
@@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials Thank you Andy... Hey, off to see Justin Hayward and Christopher Cross on Sunday, 7-14 my 69th Birthday..! My friend from England, Mike Dawes is playing lead for Justin. And opening the show. I am sure you know who Mike is. Check him out. Look up Boogie Shred. He wrote it at 16 years old. I met him in NYC when he had his first gig in the States, at The Iridium in 2014. One of his friends sat at our table with me and my bass player. After the show he invited us to hang. I asked Mike to put his hands up against mine. Seriously, Andy, his reach was around 11 inches!! I would really like to see you play live, or catch up sometime. Do you work in studio atmosphere outside this gig? Seriously your videos are the top of the stack. Professional as it gets. Cheers to you.
Great job on one of the Stones’ funkiest songs. I really appreciate your attention to detail!
Great jam. Thanks Andy
PEACE from Philadelphia
Usually the chords are pretty easy, but almost without exception, guitar part tutorials for popular songs tend to get the rhythmic nuances and phrasing wrong. This one, on the other hand, is right on the money! Very nice. One of my favorite guitar parts! :-)
Excellent lesson! I can’t thank you enough for this video and the TABs.
I’m glad I didn’t die before TH-cam came along. More specifically this channel. I need to visit the Patreon tab again. Your a treasure brotha
Great lesson. Thanks for publishing this!!
Thank you so much, your channel is my go to channel for all my guitar learning , and I have seen a lot of the others, but yours is tops. Your presentation is excellent and you get right to it, as what your channel title says. I liked your Scorpians and Bryan Adams stuff, Keith Scott is awesome as well as Mathias Jabs from the Scorpians and of course Schenker too.. Thank you so much for your time puting these Videos together for us. BTW I did donate on your donate page, your time and work into this is valuable. -Ray
Killer song. One of the best stones songs. Well played! THANKS!
best tutor ever,got me playing it after 5 minutes messing & getting the feel, the stroking makes it sound just right 👌
I forgot how awesome this song is!! Fantastic job - you nailed it
Awesome job!! One of my favorite stones song.
As always fantastic work !!!
I agree- killer tune. Nice work, and man that is a beautiful standard u got there
Been hoping for this one! Thank you very much
What a classic. Outstanding lesson.
Great song choice, thanks so much as always!
Love your approach to sharing the wealth!!!
I love it great way to break this one down!
Excellent job learning this song and showing us all how to play it. Please keep it up; you're really nailing the Keith Magic on all of the Stones songs you have posted thus far.........!!
This is the very BEST channel to learn . Dude is amazing ! Totally A-1 for pro or beginners .
I get into all your videos, but in my book the tops! Thanks so much for sharing!
No wonder I couldn’t figure out how to play this song for so long. Richards kept tuning his guitar 🎸 down to open D. Same with Jack Flash.
Once I tuned down my guitar, it was easy to play and sounded exactly like the recording!
I was amazed! It’s like finding the final piece of a Jigsaw 🧩 puzzle that completes the Picture!
My problem was I knew nothing about changing the Tunings. Now I know about it and I have an App that makes it easy to do. Back then, I had nothing!
So I’m finally in tune! Thanks for the demonstration! Great Song!
Excellent rendering of this song!
This is the way I hear it as well.
I agree, we've been listening to the recording for decades (and loving it), so that's the way we want to play it.
Love it. It's one of my favorite songs.
But with the Stones, there are so many!
(Beast of Burden, oh, gosh, so many.)
we
Andy, this is so fantastic.
So cool. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. I dont play, but I love to hear you play. I bought the "Let it Bleed" album I was 15 yrs old. Monkey man was & is one my favorites. You nailed it. Thank you !
Oh fudge. Tab is discontinued. Anybody find a matching one? On Ultimate, none use a capo
What are the Frets and Fingers positions for the Organ Piano intro you did?
fantastic lesson - thank you!!
I love the late 60's to early 80's.
Very Cool.
Thanks.
So cool such cool licks. Love that you look to get it dead on. That's what it's all about because that's what makes it special. And you make that happen 👍
Awesome playing and great tutorial, dude! 🤘
great track ,great tutorial...as always
Sounds spot on. Great lesson man. Thanks!
Thanks for your videos,very helpful…great job…great tune,always loved it
Great explanation and lesson--well done! I hope you get the support you need.
Love it ! Well done !
This is so cool. Bang on the money. Nail this any everyone will think you're a guitar god
I always look for your tutorial s 1st. Your the best teacher I’ve found
Masterfully done! Thank you.
Best guitar tutorials on the internet!
Awesome lesson as usual!! Thanks a million!!
Great great great tutorial! I always felt Monkey Man stood out from all the other tracks as if it was produced/engineered/mixed completely separate from all the other tracks. Like ahead of its time. Obviously amazing songs all around on that album but this one always hits me different. Thanks!!!
Can’t wait to get home so I can crack into this lesson!
Masterfully done!!
✌️💜🙋🏻♂️🎸
Amazing job on this one - great tone too
Well played, great tone. So cool!
You do a great job and if a guitarist want to get the song right your the man. Thanks keep it up
great lesson! you really nailed the tone!
surely one of the best version ever ! congrat man !
Thanks so much Great Lesson 👍
I shut up and played. For real. What a blast this song is. Sway and Gimme Shelter are in the books here thanks to you bro!! Thanks a million!!
I know this is a old lesson but....NUANCE!
NUANCE... Great tune by a real genuine genius!...
Let's not forget how dam good a teacher you are!...No Brag Just Fact!..
Thanks for your help with this one!...And every other one too!
Ray Boston 👍🏻
That's such a grimy and sleazy Grove I love it
You, Sir, are simply f’ing AWESOME ❤
Awesome video man 😊👍👍 my favourite Stones song 👍👍
Hell Yea! Great selection.
So good!
Awesome work!
Good stuff!!!!
DUDE, YOU ARE JUST SO GOOD. AWESOME.
Andy ! I knew you would love this one ! I requested it like a month ago. Not sure if you even saw that but thanks for posting anyways ! Lots of Keith nuances on this one. And I see you have the capo which I suspected also. Those D shape hammer ons I’m hearing always seemed to suggest capo. So I’ll say mystery solved. Love this track. Also perfect tone you got going there. cheers man !
It's going to be a great Sunday jam. I'm a Monkey........Man! Thank you, great lesson and you nailed the tone.
Oh my god man you freakin dialed this one in. That was pure magic and I had to listen to it multiple times. Just record an album with just music, I have my wish list already. But Christ almighty that was unbelievable 🕺🤘🤘👏👏😷😷😢 and the guitars sound in perfect tune I’m still listening to it, is this one of those where Keith supposedly just took off the high E, I’ve heard that about several songs (can’t you hear me knocking)
First heard this song on goodfellas. Great tune
Sound is spot on.
Nice job with this song,like you sound.
Hearing detail I never knew was there - esp the volume up single notes on intro. Now I gotta start all over!
True! Been playing this tune for 15 years now have fresh look always looking to improve
I appreciate your exactness.
Awesome!
Truly awesome work! You are only one of two people on the entire internet that I trust to figure songs out accurately. I really like the details and the nuance, because therein lies the difference between a really good guitar player and just an "okay" guitar player. I've seen a lot of your other stuff and it's all equally great. Please take a look at doing Heartbreaker Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo. You'd have to decipher Keith and Mick Taylor. No one else has got it figured out, at least not on the internet. Some have tried and crashed and burned.
Hey man! Love the videos, they're not only a great help but also pretty inspiring for an real amateur like me. Would you ever considering doing a lesson (or lessons) on some Crosby, Stills, Nash (& Young) songs? I think they have some really beautiful guitar parts that I'd love to see your take on, namely - '4+20', 'Guinevere', 'Helplessly Hoping', 'Ohio' and 'Suite Judy'. Keep up the great work!
Your lessons are awesome! Amazing technique combined with easy to listen to instruction. Thank you so much!! May i humbly request.. The Ecstacy of Gold by Ennio Morricone for a single guitar performance?
Interesting. I learned it in open G and it always sounded pretty dead on. But this version sounds right as well. The guitar is a crazy instrument that way. Thanks!
Andy-
I finally gave you some cash though it wasn't nearly enough compared to what I've gotten from your lessons. I'll do better as time moves on.
Thank you.
