The greatest guitar solo of it's time, it had everything, even Hendrix was mesmerised by Cream. The interesting thing about this solo is if you learn to play it, it will teach you everything you can do on a guitar (apart from tapping and whammy bar techniques). It will teach you double stops, double bends, slides, hammer ons, pull offs, vibrato etc. I also believe this is the most complete solo Clapton ever performed, it's melodic, intense, fast, accurate, and had every single thing in it Clapton knew how to do at the time.Tim pays a nice homage to Clapton at the end of the solo, but Claptons end solo is incredible!
Tim is the gold standard of guitar tutorials. Out of the gate, he draws you in with his seamless playing. Then he breaks it down, methodically, patiently; and with his infectious joy for playing.
It is is humble in his genius that works my heart and soul. Natural musicians like Lord Pierce were ALWAYS my heroes- because despite my serious conservatory and university music lessons- natural musicians like Lord Pierce and the love in their ears and hearts trumped my academic music training… amen.
Been playing guitar, (self taught) for 45+ yrs. Still enjoy playing. Always a Good day, or rather a Better day when I pick up something new that enhances my vocabulary. My vocabulary Most times is enhanced after watching one of Tim's TH-cam videos. Thanks a bunch Tim!
I got a totally different impression. When he smiles it looks to me like he’s really enjoying playing,not like “I know I’m badass” type smile. Who knows but him I guess
You sir are a giant. Wow what a wake up call. Really enjoyed that lesson. I am a 70 year old retired muso still kicking and doing gigs . And living the dream. U take care please don’t stop, regards martin
I think of all of the guitar solos over the years this solo, more than any, is a "must learn exactly like the record". It's that iconic and beloved and I'm sure you've more than done your part In helping people do that..thanks Tim !
Hi Tim I grew up with Clapton and have always been a big fan, but I have to say your solo was absolutely superb , and what I love is you can see by your face you are really enjoying yourself. You are truly a great player all the best to you from the UK!
Tim, I've been listening to you for a couple months now and I have to say, I believe you are probably the best guitar player I've ever seen, Ever.. Bar none. Your knowledge of the guitar is phenomenal and when you play, you sound Awesome!! Everything is spot on, timing wise and you put everything in the right place... I repeat, You are the best I've ever seen. You Are Awesome!!!
This was the first song and solo I ever learned, and was back in 1986. The tablature arrived in a guitar player magazine and I just poured over it. I have forever been glad that I learned it, because everything else following wasn't too tough and paved the way for me to learn other player's guitar styles. After this song, I went deeply into Hendrix, Jeff Beck, and the three Kings.
Tim is just the best. So calm and mellow when explaining and giving alternatives on way making you believe in yourself that anything is possible. Having not played electric guitar for thirty years my plectrum skill has deserted me so I use right hand finger picking throughout. We do what we have to do!
I've always looked for the nuances to this masterpiece of guitar and just found It. Being a life long hobbyists guitar player this is one I've strived to nail. Your lesson is the key for me. Much thanks!
It is a gift to be able to play so well. It is a gift to be able to teach well. You are one of the few great players who also is a great teacher. Thanks for the lesson!
The guys in my band have asked to put this in the set, naturally the algorithm has brought my favourite session player up. I’ll never play it like Tim but this is certainly the best reference to learn from
Is there a moment when you were learning guitar, that your teacher or someone pointed out something that you were doing wrong, like how you were holding your pick, etc..that changed everything? I watch these and of course say "wow" like 99.9% of everyone else, but watching you teach makes things not only attainable, but much less frustrating...live forever! eagerly awaiting any material from you! thanks millions! Rich...Detroit.
The whole idea , “ in time and in tempo “ . Make it your own then swing it around. The whole idea. The most prophetic words I have heard in a long time.
Tim - You are the Best! I found you, or was made aware of your existence thanks to our friend Rick Beato. Thank you, RB! Man, every time I click on another video tutorial / Jam...damn fun...I am blown away! You Da man! Thx, MSL
This solo is Clapton greatest of all time..I saw David Hildago ,Los Lobos on New Years Eve at the Filmore West..do this note for note...a great time for all.Thanks for this post greatly appreciated.
Tim, that is literally my dream man cave. You are living the dream Tim. Making a living by playing the guitar must be one of the best feelings ever. I would wake up everyday thinking yes! I have work today. Keep on rocking Tim, I really appreciate your videos.
Thanks for breaking Clapton's riff into simpler pieces, Tim! You make it seem so easy...an old hacker with 10 thumbs appreciates your infinite patience and technical insight.
Love your style of playing and teaching! I get impatient (and confused) with every string, fret and finger numbers that some YT teachers recite for every darn note. Just watching you play, with the way you break it down, is perfect for me. Thanks again.
I’m kind of a Hendrix disciple but I know how much Jimi loved EC. Having listened more to Clapton recently I have realized just why they once wrote “Clapton is God.” This is certainly excellent musicianship and it happens to be my favorite Cream/Clapton song to play.
basic stuff here with Clapton not Tim .Tim plays it better than clapton . Page Hendrix Beck ..Eric is not even the top 5. even he knew that , that god stuff was embarrassing for him. enjoy the music .
Okay Tim, my guitar's in pieces having been thrown out the window, so what's next? I would run out of superlatives describing your demonstration of how to out Clapton the big 'E' but the greatest compliment I could give is how you really put yourself and joy into playing. There is a sublime love in there for what you do and that's what separates you from we lesser mortals who have enough problems simply getting the notes right never mind putting those subtle bends and beautiful, expressive tonality in with but a thought. The smile as you come down that blinding half blues, half country run before flying back up to the 12th fret is worth a thousand words. Thank you for being who you are. I have taken the liberty of looping your piece 4 times into a 6 minute track if that's okay although without the smile it isn't quite the same! Put that on a CD and I'd buy it like a shot. The sheer exuberance of your playing is a wonder to behold and an inspiration to so many. Thank you for being who you are.
Hey Tim, I enjoy watching you play stuff. Your easy on the ears, you seem to have it all ... Good phrasing, and most of all a modest positive attitude that is admirable.
Looking for a tutorial to learn to play Crossroads... see a Tim Pierce one (sweet)... click... then BAM! WOW!!!!! That solo. Haven't picked up the guitar yet, just keep listening to that intro over & over! Thank you for that stunning ear candy!
This is really an incredible tutorial! I like that you go into every small detail of the song without repeating everything again and again. Thank you very much!
Before I knew it, you have become one of my guitar heroes as well as clapton!! and I have been watching you from Japan almost everyday!! thank you Tim!!
Hahaha, Tim that was AWESOME! Your Clapton licks are great, but your own licks are even better. Love the one you did at 1:18, so smooth man! Your timing is so good it's crazy. Superb guitar playing. You're an inspiration! cheers
The original is a classic, and for it's time, altering. You play it so smoothly when you do it homage. When you start to improvise you retain the phrasing cadence a just kill it with your improvisation. Thank you for sharing.
This is a great lesson in that it provides tons of jump off points for building your own solo. I find this lesson - and your lessons in general great for providing a foundation or reference point to fall back on when creating my own licks. If I can't master a certain lick, I work something else out using this as a sort of home base if you will. Just awesome - thanks for posting these lessons!
Tim, you play with such skill and pleasure it makes me feel the electric guitar is the best thing humankind has ever invented. (Well, in fact it is) You rule! Now I think I have to do some (a lot of) practice...
Great playing! This helped me to find some missing licks. Just to add on what I'm hearing which your instruction helped me find....The lick at 8:55: instead of the A anchor note use F# (4th fret on D string). F# A-F#-A C A D C A(pull off) C-C# (Hammer on) C#-A. I'm hearing a major phrasing in the beginning of that phrase and end. I think it's the F# before the A and a hammer on to the C# to end it but maybe it's in my head! Cheers!
U r really such a good teacher and player! Few are able to be both at the same time, but you are definitely one of the exceptions! I love all your session work! Thank you for being such an inspiration and motivation! Greetings from Singapore!
Interesting how the way that intro is played sounds so much like the Beatles, who did a lot of melodic picking in addition to strumming. Re: 'Pull off with your little finger.' Hmmm... Clapton uses his pinkie when chording but never when soloing, so doing that pulloff with that finger would likely be a challenge he would avoid. I was unable to find any video footage applicable to that specific moment, but possibly he used an alternative approach. Cream were such an exciting band. Looking back it is understandable why. Clapton may have been the self-confessed weakest link, but with Ginger and Jack burning they way they did, he needed only to inject his Bluesbreaker licks into that turbulent undertow to create the magic they did.
The best Example so far for me of this great song..I learned something here, I wished you lived next door Tim, I`d drop by everyday...Thanks so much for posting.
Wow! What a GREAT player! This is my first exposure to one of your lessons. Your ability to break things down into understandable chunks is incredible! It would be easy to get completely LOST while trying to learn these licks, but you provide immediate clarity - and in such a concise manner. I'll be checking out more of your lessons soon. Thank you so much!
I've been watchin' you solo more than 20 times the last days, it's really honey for my ears.. Will try to tab and learn it, I know what to do with my guitar for the next months :-) Thanks again !
Fantastic solo, Tim! BTW, the backing track was/is amazing, as a bass player, I have always admired Jack Bruce’s powerful work on “Crossroads”, all over the fretboard and rock-solid tempo… whoever played the bass on your backup track absolutely nailed that!
That was always one of my favorite Clapton songs. Truly, with so many to choose from it's hard to pick one. Anyway, this guy nails it and I have a whole new appreciation for EC. Good job 👍

The weird thing is that Clapton didn’t like it. He said he screwed up the timing a couple of times. I agree with you though!
Actually Clapton was mesmerized by Jimi. Never the other way around. All pentatonic.ala 90% of Clapton.
@@jimkostan9932 Jimi was humble and respected his peers, you can find the interviews
@@jimkostan9932 Nonsense. Jimi spoke for himself.
I just think this gentleman is a very very great guitarist and seems to teach extremely well.Respect Sir.
That's probably the best TH-cam teaching I've used. No bollocks... Straight to the point! Perfect.

Dead on ! No way to say it better . Always soulful playing by Tim as shown by that broad deep smile when he cuts loose
Agreed!
I bow to the interpretive and technical chops of this Mr Tim Pierce and his ears.
I never saw a guitarist more smiling when playing then Tim Pierce. Tim you are amazing ... thx for your lessons. Helped me a lot.
That solo itself may have been one of the best I've seen. Thank you Tim.
Been playing guitar, (self taught) for 45+ yrs. Still enjoy playing. Always a Good day, or rather a Better day when I pick up something new that enhances my vocabulary. My vocabulary Most times is enhanced after watching one of Tim's TH-cam videos. Thanks a bunch Tim!
7 years ago and this still one of the most badass lessons on TH-cam to this day.
I love the smile he gets on his face every time he plays an insane solo. He’s good and he knows it but he still seems like a nice guy.
I got a totally different impression. When he smiles it looks to me like he’s really enjoying playing,not like “I know I’m badass” type smile. Who knows but him I guess

any true music lover would never hate this. awesome.
every other teacher of this song plays it half assed and wrong , except you Tim. Awesome !
Wow, that solo literally melted my face.
absolutely amazing....I must have listened to this at least 100 times and I can't stop smiling afterward.

Masterful lesson and teaching. I have ALWAYS loved the "3 phrase" D7 part of this rhythm and the "skip" feel - you articulated this very well.
This solo is Clapton greatest of all time..I saw David Hildago ,Los Lobos on New Years Eve at the Filmore West..do this note for note...a great time for all.Thanks for this post greatly appreciated.

Tim, great lesson. These licks are so ingrained in our musical thought that it's easy to forget the chops needed to reproduce them.
Makes me wish had learned this solo back when I was copping Clapton licks. I’ve got to get back into the learning groove. Tim, YOU’RE SO GOOD!
That lick at 1:20 makes my 👂gasm! All the licks are awesome but that one stands out to me.
Always love you lessons and the stuff you show us. Thank you Tim.

love to see a guy that loves his work
Interesting how the way that intro is played sounds so much like the Beatles, who did a lot of melodic picking in addition to strumming.
Re: 'Pull off with your little finger.' Hmmm... Clapton uses his pinkie when chording but never when soloing, so doing that pulloff with that finger would likely be a challenge he would avoid. I was unable to find any video footage applicable to that specific moment, but possibly he used an alternative approach.
Cream were such an exciting band. Looking back it is understandable why. Clapton may have been the self-confessed weakest link, but with Ginger and Jack burning they way they did, he needed only to inject his Bluesbreaker licks into that turbulent undertow to create the magic they did.
