Marty Schwartz: greatest guitar teacher of a generation. m 19. When I was 13 my friends dad (guitarist) helped me get my first guitar. He told me I could teach myself on TH-cam. A few weeks later I came back to him and told him I had found a great teacher that broke down hella songs note by note. He said, "who, Marty Schwartz?" fuck yeah Marty Schwartz.
Bob was actually the one with the rhythm part and Jerry would play those licks and dabble in the chord progression with Bobby. Long Live Jerry! Much love
Thank you for giving Bobby credit for his cool jazzy runs in this song....."Once in a while you can get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right"!
''Once in a while you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right'' such a beautiful line and such a beautiful song! Glad you're doing Dead videos again, keep them coming please haha
So many people are resistant to the Grateful Dead for some reason, thinking that they just endlessly noodle. But they really were genius songwriters- watching Marty break this song down really reminded me of that.
I have started the guitar jam lessons on the blues. I’m up to lesson 20. I have a lifetime subscription. You are a constant in my life right now and I thank you very much! I’m improving everyday! It’s just like you say if I can’t get something just practice it and try again tomorrow and you will be surprised how much better you are at it!
I freakin' love Marty, and just now when I saw he was teaching one of the Dead's best songs it just made me smile even more. Thx Marty ! You're the best, brother 🙂
Marty, I love your approach to this. This is one of my all time fav songs. I stopped and restarted many times while kinda playing along, how did I miss this groove. Showing me Gerry's part pulled the song together. Thanks man. Keep going!
I saw you do a solo version of this song years ago on your channel and really dug it. I’ve been waiting super patiently for you to do a walkthrough of it. Prayers answered. Many thanks!
nice one marty. the dead alone are a great conversation topic for guitar players. interesting what song pulls people in and if there's a influence to play it. and the approach now people take to cover it is as fascinating at the sounds those guys were making. appreciate you taking the time to walk thru this.
Hey, Marty! I started learning guitar in September of 2018 and my only regret is that I didn’t start sooner... you’ve helped me a LOT (whenever I wanna learn a song I check to see if you have a tutorial first) and made a lot of stuff as easy as it can be, I feel. I’m gonna learn the last part to Stairway tomorrow then I think I’ll learn this. Keep on keeping on 🤙🏼
I've bee playing for 9 months. I picked it up at 30. Although im probably better than alot of people with 9mos playing time. This will take me a while to learn. Not the main chords but the small nuances that make it great
It's funny how the process works for me. I watched this video a year ago, I could mirror Marty and kind of pull things off with practice. All the basic terminology and "theory" didn't make any sense. I still can't execute but at least the lesson makes sense 😂 this is such a great song also. Thanks dude. Your content is excellent. ✌️❤️
I love this. I'd love a master class like this on Franklin's Tower, and maybe a part 2 to this video going into a Fire on the Mountain, talking about the transition jam.
MARTY YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!!! IM A BEGINNER...AND YOU HAVE HELPED ME SOOO MUCH...THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND FREE SERVICE, TALENT AND GENEROSITY!!!! STAY SAFE....❤ML❤
Hi Marty, thanks for breaking down the parts so well. It would also be cool if you watched the Dead playing this song so you would see that Bob was playing all the octave parts and Gerry was playing all the single note parts.
Thanks Marty! I've been waiting for this one for a long time. You have an old video of a cover of SB that I loved, but not really a lesson. This is awesome! ;-)
Hi Marty! Is that there your shiny new factory-tour Gibson ES-335? ... Blimey! That thing must have time-travel capabilities enabled! "One in a while you get shown the light ..."
You’re the best teacher on all of TH-cam. Is there anyway you could make some videos on how to play some songs by Tyler Childers such as Lady May or Feathered Indians?
Mart I've been waiting for a proper lesson from this for years and I'm not just kissing your ass but I cant really learn that well from anyone else on here like I can from your lessons.
A couple of notes to add....The part you said is Jerry's in the beginning is actually Bob's. Jerry is playing B to E, then B to A, not just hanging on B like you said. Very useful lesson nonetheless
well well....what...you ran out of Coco & Frozen songs. :). I've been asking for this for years (ever since you did that dead covers Scarlet) you would think a little family nepotism would get my requests pushed to the top of the list. I'll forgive ya!
Bret Schwartz lol 😂 gotta love the fun lessons like that though! 😁 Marty really does it all doesn’t he! I’ve learned so much music I wouldn’t have known had I not subscribed to this channel! Super cool! Love learning songs that I wouldn’t have heard any other way! It’s expanded my musical tastes and knowledge and that is so cool to me!
This was really great! Thanks! Request: How about showing the transition from Scarlet to Fire on the Mountain, along with that wonderful intro riff. It's in B-Mixolydian too, right? I saw Jerry drop into Eyes out of Scarlet Begonias at the Frost (1985?) I know there is a key change for Eyes' chorus, but are its verses in B-Mixolydian too?
1. Fire is mostly just B+A (from the key of E just like Scarlet). So going from B mixo in Scarlet to Fire is all the same. 2. The verses of Eyes is E key, I'm not sure on the scales he uses. The choruses are in G. There is an Emaj7/Bminor bit that's a bit odd before returning to versus. I'd be curious as to what's being played over that (or is it a typo in a songbook?).
@@EclecticEssentric I think they start in B mixolydian, the opening octave riff he's showing us is in B mixolydian. The notes are playing B E D# B, etc then rests on D# again. "I was walking round Grosvenor Square.." is B mixolydian. Then it changes to E mixolydian at "From the other direction". And back to B mixolydian at "might as well try". They like to emphasize the D# to D change in the solos
I don't remember what video it was, but marty absolutely ran his own channel into the ground. I can't watch his videos anymore, just can't remember what video ran it into the ground. lol.
Marty i always learn everything from you and i literally cant learn anything from other guitar youtubers so please can you do AC/DC - hard as a rock tutorial?
Thanks for supporting MartyMusic, I also have some cool FREE courses when you sign my newsletter at www.martymusic.com
Plsss make a lesson for the song altitudes by Jason becker or jewel by I think it was Marty Friedman
Can you please do a lesson of blue jeans Silvertide! There isn’t a single one anywhere
Marty Music Bobby’s actually playing that one riff 6:56
Marty Music does the dead use any kind of effects pedal on begonias?
Hey Marty can you do a fire on the mountain lesson? With some tips on getting fun riffs going based on the songs feel/notes?

When I saw Marty doing a Grateful Dead lesson, I clicked basically instantly. Cheers for this one!
Anyone else remember watching this guy when they were kids????
Glad to see you're still kicking around Marty!
I definitely do and remember being like where’s all the Dead stuff at lol
I mean I still feel like a kid even though I'm middle aged. So... I guess so?
Bob was actually the one with the rhythm part and Jerry would play those licks and dabble in the chord progression with Bobby. Long Live Jerry! Much love
Thank you for giving Bobby credit for his cool jazzy runs in this song....."Once in a while you can get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right"!
Bob weir’s guitar is the first lick with the octaves. Jerry playing the other
Thank you I didn't want to mention it in case anyone else had said it. That's what makes Bob such an awesome rhythm player!
He is one of the best, also can play lead. Not many pro rythym players, play lead.
Kind of surprised he doesn’t know that. Marty is not really a dead fan.
Bob never gets the credit.
If you watch Winterland 74 you can see Bobby playing this lick. Very cool. Love me some B Mixo
''Once in a while you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right'' such a beautiful line and such a beautiful song!
Glad you're doing Dead videos again, keep them coming please haha
This is one of the Dead songs that I should know but somehow never bothered to learn, so now I have no excuse not to learn it. Thanks, Marty!
As a deadhead, this warms my heart. Thanks for sharing this song to others Marty. Keep up the dead.
Yess love when you teach any kind of dead content !

Hey marty!!
Song request- Fire on the mountain!! By the dead!! (Obviously)
Love you man!!! Peace out!
Yes thank you so much Marty!!! I requested this one on your Insta page a week or 2 ago, I’m super glad you did it!
Marty you're the best! Everything you teach is the real deal and easy to digest. Amen brother!

Yes!!!! SO much fun to solo over this one. Just a feel good tune that's great to play the mixolydian over
This is awesome! Probably my favorite Grateful Dead song.

I wanted to thank you for all the help yo have given guitar players! It is appreciated. Your arrangements are fun!!
Keep the dead coming 🙌🏼 get to see them and Jm this year at Jazzfest
Thank you for the Scarlet Begonias guitar lesson. Greatly appreciated!
every year you are looking a little more and more like Jerry ! keep 'em coming brother !! love it
Great lesson. Thank you! Bob plays the octave riff and Jerry the part but I couldn't either until I watched your lesson
Only thing cooler would have been a combo lesson with a Fire On The Mountain transition at the end!!! 🤘💪 🔥
It's funny how the process works for me. I watched this video a year ago, I could mirror Marty and kind of pull things off with practice. All the basic terminology and "theory" didn't make any sense. I still can't execute but at least the lesson makes sense 😂 this is such a great song also. Thanks dude. Your content is excellent. ✌️❤️
Why Ive said 100 times, you are the man. Sugar magnolia is another good one, with kinds the same rythym groove.
Awesome lesson Marty. Great song with lots of concepts to learn and I will try to play. Thanks!
Thanks, Marty. I was trying to figure out that end jam and with your help, I think it's about right.
That is such a beautiful guitar. I can’t wait to get home from work and learn this
I love this. I'd love a master class like this on Franklin's Tower, and maybe a part 2 to this video going into a Fire on the Mountain, talking about the transition jam.
Great lesson. Lets keep up this with more dead tunes!!
Thank you so much brother, been suggesting this for so long!!!
3:41 That's not Jerry. That's Bob Weir's rhythm part.
Right On Marty! I love your Grateful Dead lessons.
please please do throwing stones!!!!! you are the only youtuber i can actually understand 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 also it’s so relevant now!!☮️❤️
Marty, your one of the guys who I go to when I want to learn a song! It's awesome you love the dead

been trying to learn this one lately. thanks so much for posting!
Great lesson. That's a fantastic sounding 335!
Didn’t know I needed your dead lessons so much!!! keep it up!
Yaasss! Another great choice Marty! Can't wait to practice this and add it to my repertoire!
SOOOO... Grateful Marty! Please do some more Skynyrd like Saturday Night Special, That Smell, Tuesdays Gone, Ballad of Curtis Loew. Thanks Marty.
This song is soooooo freaking fun man ! Thanks bro
Nice explanations!! Thanks Marty, great stuff. New cover for the set list. Lol
Band rehearsal is gonna be even more fun.
Hey Marty, long time student though we havent met haha. Thank you for this! You're awesome!
Hell yeah dude! Great cover/tutorial. What a great Dead tune.
Love it when you do a Dead tune Marty Garcia!
I think it's Bob playing the octaves not Jerry. Thanks for the all of the great content! Appreciate it!
Marty, the octave runs are Bobby, Jerry's playing the e with 2 up strokes in time to follow bobby back to the B.
Tone sounds awesome in this video man
Always love the dead lessons. How about brokedown palace my wife's favorite.
Thank you marty! Absolutely love this song!
Thank god this lesson exists ❤️
Definitely one of my favorite Grateful Dead songs and great lesson! Could you possibly do Cities On Flame With Rock and Roll sometime??
The octave intro part is bobby's part..he essentially does that always during non verse non bridge moments..
I'm glad I play bass that looks too complicated😁
the main fill/riff is wrog. It doesnt slide from 5 to 6 on the A string it goes 6h7p6. The bridge too. It goes 0 2 4 on the low E
Have been waiting on this one👍👍
Great lesson Marty!
Hi Marty! Is that there your shiny new factory-tour Gibson ES-335? ... Blimey! That thing must have time-travel capabilities enabled!

@@marcosluna7792 try stitchmethod. Love that guy. Great vibes
@@Spacecowboy42 I love his lessons too!
Facts!
Can you please do the bass lesson for this too? Some awesome jamming Marty! Im also considering purchasing one of your looper pedals!
can’t believe this only has 34k views
My favorite GD tune! Can you please do more of a rythm, lesson? Something to strum around a campfire.
Love you for this one Marty!!
Strangers stopping strangers, just to teach some songs!
Yet beautiful
More Jerry! Awesome Video!
Marty - what would I do without you?!?!?!
i really accidentally yelled "fuck yeah" when i looked this up and saw that marty had a tutorial for it
Awesome breakdown.
A couple of notes to add....The part you said is Jerry's in the beginning is actually Bob's. Jerry is playing B to E, then B to A, not just hanging on B like you said. Very useful lesson nonetheless

Great lesson!
Nicely done, thank you!
Yes!!! More Grateful Dead the better
Thank you, Marty! Good stuff! Would love to see China Cat and I know You Rider! 🎸 ✌🏻
Marty Music rocks
awesome lesson thank you
Yes! Thanks, Marty!
how are you muting the strings during the octaves?
Marty i always learn everything from you and i literally cant learn anything from other guitar youtubers so please can you do AC/DC - hard as a rock tutorial?
Great video!
Now you have my attention. Great song and great band. Always wanted to know this but too hard or too time consuming to figure it out.
