Very groovy. I read an article with Tom Dowd where he talked about recording this album. He said Clapton & Bruce set up full marshal stacks and it was the loudest thing he ever heard. My friends and I always used a hard R at the end of swlabr.
Love your lessons! You are awesome!! I've been playing guitar for 35-40 years! But I'm ALWAYS A STUDENT!!! YOU TEACH SO WELL I'VE BEEN ABLE TO PICK IT UP FROM YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE SO STRAIT FORWARD WITH YOUR LESSONS!!!! I'm so glad I subscribed I wish EVERYONE would also follow you!!!! It would help anyone to learn from you!!! Thank you so much for the awesome content from your sight!!!!
@stevenkimsey7039 Your speaking "Keef" of course any riff from Richards is more likely better than others. Gimme Shelter is just as good 👍 or even better.
I read an interview many years ago where Eric said he preferred the ‘cowboy chords’ (first time I’ve heard that expression but I get it). He was of the view that the notes were more reliable down there. Not his exact words but close.
I love cowboy chords. The intonation is almost always nearly perfect and you get a lot of open strings playing in the first position. So everything just rings out better. And you can always fool around with fun voicings for different moods.
I watched this video and immediately subscribed to your channel. This was a great lesson, thanks for sharing it. I always thought of Swlabr as one of Cream' s hidden little gems.
I had the same SG and a Twin with EV 12 L 200 watt speakers . Loud and clean. The lady across the street wasn’t impressed that she could hear me in her house. Cool lesson. Thanks 🙏
Bro you are such a GREAT teacher i cannot grasp ANY OF your lessons unless i REALLY grasp your playing style! You are a truly great master of each of the guitarists you are trying to master! But each guy you tackle you seem to pinpoint perfectly!!!! Thank you for that ive learned so much from your videos!!!!! You are a master of the guitar and i cannot thank you enough for all the help you have given me!!!
Excellent breakdown of one of my old favorites to listen to and play (like 55+ years ago!) I completely agree that the solo was all above the 12th fret. Your tones are great - I think that has to do with the guitar as much as the amp. My first "real guitar" was a 62 SG Special. I really wish I still had it.
Great lesson, and my hobbyist ears agree with the 14th fret theory, you get the thickness of the wound strings and avoid the high E string! What I like the most about this song is the stereo separation between the rhythm and lead parts. The reverb is incredible too!
Clapton is definitely playing a double stop, not just a single note at the end of that little signature riff. You can clearly hear it. Play all double stops for that riff on the B and G strings (14th fret to 12th fret to 9th fret) and give the notes heavy vibrato when on the 9th fret and you'll sound like the record.
In honor of Ringo’s new album, out today, I’d love to see “It Don’t Come Easy” one day. 😊 It’s one of my favorites to play, and I’d love to see your take on the intro riff and the solo. During Covid, (I think for Ringo’s 80th birthday), Peter Frampton showed a closeup of how to play that during his cover. I learned a few of the notes from that. But the intro to IDCE is probably my favorite guitar tone of all time. Love that Leslie sound!!
@@s2seltaeb I hear George who did lots of lovely stuff played on a d chord or a ‘d shape’, eg And your Bird Can Sing - originally recorded in D as heard on the Anthology; and Here Comes the Sun, albeit played with a capo at 7th fret in that case.
I've always loved how that lick in the verses outlines the Amaj-Gmaj-Emaj chords with the major thirds. Since Gmaj isn't in the key of Emaj, it could be ambiguous and you might hear it in the key of Emin instead. A lot of blues based rock doesn't emphasize the major third in this kind of progression, but this song is like, "HEY! All the chords are MAJOR!"
Great tutorial! Agree on the solo position. Not familiar with this particular song from Eric. But seeing him playing many other solos you generally see him work where the fingering is most efficient, regardless of it means staying south of 12t fret for a long time. So I think you’re spot on.
Thanks so much for the lesson on this song. One of my favorite Cream songs. BTW craziest thing. parts caster that has dingwall SRV pickups in, Neck pickup, tone rolled totally off, going through a duekest and a nobels pedal into my real '65 deluxe reverb with celestian "A" speakers and i get perfect clapton women tone
Something about those Gibson years! Clapton was on a mission, and his playing and tone reflected it! His playing was full of piss and vinegar. I can imagine that era of trying to stay on top against players such as Alvin Lee, Peter Green, Hendrix, and then Johnny Winter, Santana, and Duane Allman up and coming flat burned him out. In his book he said between being in a band with Bruce and Baker, and the massive volume of the Cream shows was overwhelming. He definitely put a cap on that era and mellowed. But yeah, Gibson era Clapton was my favorite too!
I absolutely love this guy I mean, look at his knowledge and equipment, then consider his kindness and honesty about everything.. a humble soul with a lot of great taste and skill! Bravo!! Thank you! Oh, by the way, I played my whole life and I’ve owned every amp imaginable and have terrible tinnitus to prove it… and I can get every great tone imaginable with a Stratocaster and a champ.. I own a silver face, a black face, a tweed and the new release champ… I don’t need anything else.. if I need more volume, I bring another champ… George Harrison had four champs as a stack for Bangladesh.. good enough for him good enough for me! Thanks again, brother
Would you ever consider doing a video on all of your equipment and what you’ve learned through buying and playing all of this fine equipment? Maybe possibly even a link to a band if you play in one… thanks again
The solo up around 14 is where I hear parts of the Purple Haze solo being played too. Hmm. Coincidence? Maybe/probably but I know I watched my local hotshot guitarists pretty closely back in the day (and still do) to see if I could learn or steal a lick or two.
Ha! For once I get to teach you: the intro is an open E chord moved up the neck... Typed in haste. It's an open E then a "G" barre chord without the barre, then "A" without the barre. The "D" is a regular open D. To my knowledge, every G and A chord in the song is played this way too.
..brilliant !!crikey moses that champ sounds well.. i never knew what swlabr was supposed to mean .. until now! finally after all these years ,thankyou !
Excellent lesson, and I agree with your positioning idea. Regarding the exact tone, I have used my 1966 Cry Baby rolled back to achieve this semi-muted tone. Eric was experimenting a lot with a Cry Baby at the time of recording Disraeli Gears - perhaps worth a try?
We all rush out and buy the gear they played in concert. They had 100 watt stacks because they are on stage.., duh. We would all be shocked to find out how many of our favorite songs were 50s Tweed Champs, 5 watt Selmers or a Silvertone P.O.S. Then the producers and engineers washed everything through compressor, delays, reverbs or what ever until they found their bliss. Mean time poor us is buying every frigin' thing in the store trying to get that magic tone..., that's what created Gear Acquisition Syndrome.
In the studio with Cream on Clapton's electric guitar parts .He just played a Gibson through a Marshal cranked all the way up . Like he did on the Bluesbreaker album. The engineers told him what they wanted with the Bluesbreakers, and he told them what he was going to do. Why the " Beano " album was so ground breaking of a sound. On Disraeli Gears he played the replacement to his stolen Les Paul, which was the Les Paul he got from Andy Summers, plus "The Fool" ( S.G. ) also through a fully cranked Marshal, only addition was a wah pedal on "Tales of Brave Ulysses". No engineering trickery.
@@johntiger5 Bullshit! Just using a microphone best suited to the task is 'trickery'. How about a limiter, or compression or EQ. or even mic placement? These are very basic recording techniques that every professional studio employs daily.
@@johntiger5 The reason his guitar sounded like a Kazoo is because his stack was so loud the diaphragm in the mic was vibrating like wax paper on a comb.
@@Honkylips007wasn’t that because he used both pickups and turned the tone pots on the guitar down? I believe that is the “woman tone” you are referring to.
Either I missed it, or I guess you forgot about the lead lines in the verses, you know, Coming to me in the morning bah bah-baaaaa... Those really fuzzy, flutey lines? They are in harmony and they totally sing. Their bluesy lazy lilting swerves lift the emotion of the song throughout! But....
I prefer his Gibson phase as well but I also like his early Strat phase. Something got lost in the ‘80’s when he went with the active pickups and the on board boosters.
I started on guitar and bass in 1963. I've had allot of amps and guitars including a full stack with a 50 watt head and back then.. it was too loud. But a Deluxe was great.
Nice work. It sounds to me like a Treble Booster or a very biting early 60s fuzz On the lead track. Rhythm guitar sounds like he’s playing through a cranked Marshall i’ve played this Song times it’s pretty difficult actually. I think it to be one of Eric’s best tunes for his psychedelic signature. Definitely multitracked. Thanks
Excellent! This is very much appreciated along with all the other cool songs you do! At 7:22 is nt that c# sharp minor chord shown incorrectly on chart! Keep rockin'!
Nothing wrong with calling it The Hendrix Chord, no harm in that. But it's actually called an E7 sharp 9. The sound that you hear that makes it so mean is from having a major third and a minor third voiced together in the chord, the major third is below the minor third (the sharp 9), it's a bad ass sound, old as dirt, Bach and everybody after him made use of it. But yeah, The Hendrix chord, why not (I'm all for it), we all love and respect Jimi, why shouldn't he get his own chord. Good lesson. Well done. Right on, PEACE.
Awesome Song, had this on repeat all week. there is this song called stroll on by The Yardbirbs, it features Jeff Beck and Jimmy page on leads. check it out sometime, maybe you could do a lessons on it
Yeah, kinda complex. Cable with RCA jack on one end 1/4" on the other. Rca to amp, 1/4 into my fryette power station attenuator. It allows you to set ohm for amp and different to cabinet. So I can set the right ohm set for the amp, and 8 ohm to the cabinet. So that's how I do it. I've run the vibro champ in that way to go through a big 4x12 marshall cabinet too :-)
You might want to use a compressor to sound like most records because that is the typical treatment. It evens out the response like toothpaste out of a tube.
@12 foot chain This is a pretty great tune.But if I'm being honest, I like YOUR tone better, & You did a fantastic job getting as close as possible BTW, however the rhythm on the album has this annoying screeching to it, & it's tough as a musician FOR "MY EARS" ANYWAY) to listen to! But well done as always, Brother! Thank You! CHEERS!🇦🇲🎙🤙🏼
Actually a good lesson and video, but why do you do not start with playing the song, so the viewer knows what to expect? Yes, I/we know the song but it would be nice to see at the beginning what we get in this video.
That was Badge. George was writing it down on paper and Clapton was looking at the paper upside down and misread as Badge. And the rest is history ....
Lucky for me.I got to hang out with felix papalarde You didn't get. That cord in the verse right and missing one note I was a bass player at criteria studios got the hang out with felix and talk about everything
Thanks so much for the lesson on this song. One of my favorite Cream songs, plus one that isn't heard as much these days!
One of my favorites. Your tones are to die for!
thank you!
@@sampopkin He nails the sounds and the playing EVERY TIME 😉
One of my favorite cream tunes
Very groovy.
I read an article with Tom Dowd where he talked about recording this album.

My friends and I always used a hard R at the end of swlabr.
Oh Lordy Lordy!
That SG has a wonderful tone!
👍🇦🇺
Thanks
Cream had a penchant for odd song titles, but man, this one is a banger and a fave. Another great lesson!
That's because of co writer Pete Brown ❤

Nice Doug haven't heard this in years. So cool, you are treating some of the young ones to this song. From Les's hometown, have a great week-end sir.
Possibly the best opening riff in history 👌
"Can't You Hear Me Knocking" probably gets my vote.
@stevenkimsey7039
Your speaking "Keef" of course any riff from Richards is more likely better than others. Gimme Shelter is just as good 👍 or even better.

getting the right tone makes all the difference in the world. Fantastic job as usual !

The Swablr is my favorite fishing lure
Swlabr popper!
Your second version of the solo both looks and sounds better to me. Thanks for the breakdown. I love Swablr, one of Jack's best vocal performances.
Excellent ! Thank you. So many greats like Neal Schon developed their skills and style from using this album as part of their resource library.

Back Where it All Begins....the ABB next ?
She Walks Like A Bearded Rainbow = SWLABR
That fits the language of Disreli Gears ⚙️
It comes from bicycle derailleur gear. It was a slip of the tongue by a Cream roadie, who said Disraeli Gears.

But the rainbow has a beard!
For the longest time I thought it was appeared

It's shocking!
Maybe a hit of acid while learning this song!😊
Can you do a video lesson on lay it on the line by Triumph
great tone.

I highly doubt that Clapton ever sat down and thought " let me figure out the most difficult way to play this riff"
Sounds great. Your tone is awesome. Definitely that woman tone

Reminiscent of the tone on I Feel Free on the first album. The Woman Tone.
Really good!

Well the Layla album wasn't too shabby!
@harveycan5820 the album was the one that made me really like Clapton I don't think you can go wrong on any
I prefer his Gibson phase as well but I also like his early Strat phase. Something got lost in the ‘80’s when he went with the active pickups and the on board boosters.
I think Clapton can touch anything with strings and it will sound good he could probably tie his shoes and sounds good
@@blastingcapps4341 Yep! Gotta love Slowhand!
I started on guitar and bass in 1963. I've had allot of amps and guitars including a full stack with a 50 watt head and back then.. it was too loud. But a Deluxe was great.
Classic Clapton leads - switching seamlessly between major and minor pentatonics as in Crossroads.
Joe Bonamassa plays the cowboy chords for this too, so you are in good company.
Lead above the 12th fret Definitely has the correct voice leading. No doubt!
The lele with whammy bar and white binding hanging. Did it come that way? Its striking!
Great tune. Great lesson.
I got it used, but yeah I believe that was from factory. It's a made in Japan early 2000s. Neck humbucker is not stock

One theory on the “Woman Tone” is middle position with tone rolled off on the neck pickup
SWLABR: She Walks Like A Bearded Rainbow.

Sometimes i do, but often I get hit with copyright or revenue sharing, so i have to pick and choose where i do that
You want to pronounce it Swallabar.
I read years ago Clapton often uses little practice amps to record with.
The title of the video is misspelled. Yeah - I'm gonna find another source with better attention to detail.
Lol. Fixed. Good lord I hope you're joking.
It means broom in Russian.
I thought George Harrison scribbled it down, they couldn't make out the word and it became "Swablr". 🤷 Who knows?
That was Badge. George was writing it down on paper and Clapton was looking at the paper upside down and misread as Badge. And the rest is history ....
You're creamy
Lucky for me.I got to hang out with felix papalarde You didn't get.
That cord in the verse right and missing one note I was a bass player at criteria studios got the hang out with felix and talk about everything
Stricken with loutishness and bed-ridden? Sex workers like a bent rod? What is this; help me out lads.
Took much talk!!!! Get to the point
Nope...
Too much talk
Song sounds like shit when you play it
TMI. Claptons's "woman tone" the neck pickup of a Gibson, a Marshall with the gain turned up and the pentatonic scale. Blam.
President Biden can pronounce it for you.
Haha, not likely. But WOULD like to see the attempt
Too much talk. Just play the song dang.
Really good!
