You get this so right. I've seen many try to show how to play this and they get it wrong. I'm no guitar player but I know what I hear and your right on. Always. Just great.
Mike Pachelli must be one of the very best TH-camra at breaking down the guitar tracks ! Fabulous quailty presented in his inimitable style! Ty! ❤😂🎉😊❤😂
Mike , thank you so much for your amazing videos where you teach every part of the great Beatles music and give us the back stories .. your contribution to music and music history is un quantifiable. Your playing and singing is magical…thank you so much 🙏🙏🔥
I got the 45 with the two songs for Xmas, 1965. So did my lil sis along with a small record player. We got it all early to help us get through the death of our mother.
Hey Mike, thanks for providing the charts and tabs in your videos now! I'm keen to buy a few charts and tabs for some of the older lessons to help support the channel and I find reading notation more comfortable. However, watching your vidoes has definitely improved my ear 10 fold
Lessons always look so easy it's so well broken down. Another amazing soundalike Mike. When you play the drums do you put yourself in a mind set to be left handed to get the Ringo sound? Sounds great to me.
@philib - Thanks and yeah! I have to work on the drum part the most 'cuz I'm not a drummer. Memorizing where to do what is not as organic (to me) as the guitar parts are. The drums are the first thing I record and whilst doing so - I'm listening to the original Beatles track and do my best to begin accents and rolls with my left hand.
Just read your email where you said you might stop sound a likes. Please don't do that. They are one of the best parts of your videos and bring it all together
Great job Mike! I've been waiting for Daytripper. I thought I played George just right, but as usual you find the little notes & riffs that George does and only dogs and Mike Pachelli can hear! And you're sure he used the Strat? I've seen others say it was the Casino or even the Tennessean. But you DO have the right sound, soooo....winner goes to Mike P!
Awesome as always Mike. Lennon’s unique rhythm style makes the song drive and thrive. Genius chord progressions along with how he brings out individual notes and sounds. Plus his strumming style is so distinct which to me is superior compared with other players and groups of that era. He was such a force. You help us notice and reinforce our respect for John Lennon as an innovator on the guitar. Thanks as always Mike!
Mike, your breakdown and performance of these Beatles songs is always spot on and amazing to watch! Thanks so much for keeping their music alive and well. Hope that all is well in France! 👍👍👏👏
That was brilliant!!! The soundalike was a bloody marvellous cover in it's own right. Your wonderful unselfish musicianship illuminates the Beatles own unique, musicianship. Thank you so much.
Oh-boy, oh-boy, oh-boy! Mike has a new one out! Every time you break dow one of my many favourite Beatles songs, some things (and often a lot of things) are revealed that I haven't grasped for the last 50+ years. It still amazes me how some sounds are actually put together by their parts. In this case the solo/bridge - which I've always enjoyed immensely, but now have another level of insight into. And those pick-aparts never "destroy" anything. They only add to the value. Thank you, Mike!
If it weren't enough that you give us all the guitar parts down to the most minute details like when someone does NOT play a particular chord or string in a chord, but then we get to watch your soundalike performances, which are a pure JOY for me to watch. I have to watch several times, because I'm so interested in all the different parts. Thank you!
Fantastic video Mike! Loved the re-creation at the end. Great point about how well the guitar parts mesh and drive it along. The bridge is especially good.
Great video. I thought usually in beginning of videos you discuss what amps were used and stuff? Great tone on that main riff. Sounds close to record. Awesome
Your Best vocal on a Beatles song.. in my band (68- 76) I played lead and sang it too... it takes a lot of practice, it then afterwards it comes natural if ? You were a Beatles music freak as I was .. LOL!! Great as always Mike!!!!
I stunned by how close the main riff guitar's tone matches the original recording. Like, it's shocking. Very impressive. Thank you for yet another (typically) thorough and helpful examination, Mike.
@Raw - Thanks, I appreciate your ability to hear the similarity of tone. I spent a LOT of time experimenting with different guitars, mic placements, various pre-amps and compressors to find that sweet tone spot.
Here it's another example of Mike Pachelli at his very best, thanks so much for such a stimulating chart! As regards vocals, maybe it should be noticed that though the song is John's, the first line of each verse is shouted by Paul, perhaps simply because John could not sing that high?
For most of my life, when the opening riff is played, audiences go wonderfully crazy. I'm rather cheered that John's rhythm work followed his great work on I CALL YOUR NAME and YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
Mike, in your playing career, when did you learn this song? Was this one of the catchiest Beatles' songs you heard, and how influential was this song compared to other songs were learned?
BernieW's earlier commented about the great bass playing. Yes. And I find your drum work is yet another integral part that drives this song forward in power-mode. There are so many previous songs that I think of as "Every Beatle Is Integral" and DAY TRIPPER is one more, but maybe I think of it first in that list. How could that be done without Ringo's opening power-up run and all the other - even the tamborine work is all-but-required for bands.
@Cbcw - I learned it in December of 1965 when it was first released in the USA. It was QUITE an impressive feat to be able to play it back then. I got my sister her first date 'cuz I made a deal with a boy she liked that if I taught him the main riff - he'd ask her out - True story!!
@@MPfrance And she's forgiven you? Er, at least let you LIVE?!! ha ha... I'd love to hear a personal anecdoate about your learning and/or playing experience with each song. Our band has 4 veteran musicians that are virtual jukeboxes. Plus we've got 300-400 own compositions for any setting. But I'm a relative baby in this stuff, but I am always blown away when our band decides "This audiene is now tired and dull - let's crank 'er up with ___" some standard opening riff. And watching the excitement spread like fire. Or occasional shockwaves as they are concussed awake again. I love seeing that audience reaction. I'd love to hear a performance-tale or goofs and re-learning experiences about any of these songs.
@@MPfrance Mike, I would not have guessed that you are the age you state! I’d never put you a day over 40! I guess playing Beatle songs keeps you young. And that is a cool story about your sister.
Okay: I'm only 13:46 in and I have to pause. I mean really, pause. I'm not usually a pick guy, so as such, I have been playing the open, signature riff wrong for almost fifty years. Pick every note!? I've been using hammer-ons and pull-offs in excess. Literally back to Square One ...
Great vocal(s) Mike! How fortunate to have the vocal range to cover it and you don't do any vocal practice whatsoever? Amazing too, you can play bass lefthanded!! Ringo sure has the touch. Love those fills near the end of the song! So sad Google's algorithm's believe your 'sound-alike' is the original (perhaps a compliment?) and they remove your video after all the effort you put in! You'd think with all the money, technology they have they could sort it out! The robot machines are making the decisions here. Google's human employees are clueless. And forget about trying to contact a real person at Google. It's all too much! This post will most likely be deleted.
Mike your ears are like a surgeon’s scalpel to pick out ever nuance, either that or you have psychic connections with John and George. Whatever your analysis is epic. Many many thanks.
Great lesson. I've always admired John's guitar part but like a lot of their early songs I just wish the dial was turned up a little higher so we could hear it more in the mix.
Playing aside, you really got an ear for tone dude. The three guitars that come in at the start are bang-on for tone color. The drums were a little more generic but holy fuck you could have tricked me on the guitar intro that it was an outtake.
Fantastic as always! I never realized Lennon was doing the rhythm like that in that position….you really get Maximum Rick 325 on this. He really worked it kind of Stones- ish .That Riff.! I hear the “Watch Your Step” influence on I Feel Fine but not on this one. I wonder If George refined it? Lennon’s primitive R&B style on Rhythm really drives it ,then that fantastic riff..I actually relate the influence more to Orbisons “Pretty Woman”..it is unique though…a good mashup can be done of those two songs..Day Tripper and Pretty Woman..I have done it! Thanks.
Hello Mike! I don't know much about the guitar, but for some nutty reason I enjoy your videos. Maybe it is simply how much I enjoy these Beatles songs. Not alone, but together with your explanations it is so, so good. And your sound alike at end is outasight. Pleasure. What a talent you have.
Mike , you are the best at breaking down these iconic songs. Thanks for all you do.
I’ve always loved John guitar sound and strumming on this and you’ve captured it perfectly.
You get this so right. I've seen many try to show how to play this and they get it wrong. I'm no guitar player but I know what I hear and your right on. Always. Just great.
Great sound, great video. Best cover of this song I've ever heard.
Mike Pachelli must be one of the very best TH-camra at breaking down the guitar tracks ! Fabulous quailty presented in his inimitable style! Ty! ❤😂🎉😊❤😂

Fantastic Mike. Even though this is a guitar tutorial i really enjoyed the sound/mix you get on the drums!
@paul - Nice of you to notice - thanks! I take a LOT of time on the drum sound.
Wow! Your breakdowns are high quality. Optimal cool and One Man Tribute Band at the end is great and should go on tour.
Well Done, as usual!!!! Totally enjoyable and educational...
Great story and brilliant rendition as always - thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
LOVE...Always Great, Mike..TY..
I got the 45 with the two songs for Xmas, 1965. So did my lil sis along with a small record player. We got it all early to help us get through the death of our mother.
great breakdown and I enjoyed the sing alike very very much!
Awesome, thank you!
The fun facts cut was a nice touch
I’m really surprised Tripper wasn’t done years ago. Great song and great lesson.
Bangers out the door, Mike ur him
Hey Mike, thanks for providing the charts and tabs in your videos now! I'm keen to buy a few charts and tabs for some of the older lessons to help support the channel and I find reading notation more comfortable. However, watching your vidoes has definitely improved my ear 10 fold

You R Soooo Cooool ! 🎉
Thanks
You’re doing god’s work mike!!
Great job, vox and all! Looks like you have a 4003s with binding or is it the lighting that makes it look like it has binding?…
No hammer on for the main riff. Man, I've been playing that wrong for years. John's part is so unique. Clever on how he switches from the E to E7...
Just read your email where you said you might stop sound a likes. Please don't do that. They are one of the best parts of your videos and bring it all together
The Rck has to be the worst sounding guitar ever ( great video though Mike)
Let's not overlook this: Mike plays the iconic riff on bass and simultaneously sings, which is definitely no mean feat!
@Bernie - Thanks for noticing that. It took me a while to get it right!
I just wanted to say the same thing. Even Paul had to think about it for a moment when his band proposed to do this one.
As always a very neat and accurate job Mike! Thanks! I would love it though if you also taught us the bass lines
And left-handed!
Great job Mike! I've been waiting for Daytripper. I thought I played George just right, but as usual you find the little notes & riffs that George does and only dogs and Mike Pachelli can hear! And you're sure he used the Strat? I've seen others say it was the Casino or even the Tennessean. But you DO have the right sound, soooo....winner goes to Mike P!
It's 4am--haven't slept yet--and I'm here with my guitar out
5:00 am for me.
Awesome as always Mike. Lennon’s unique rhythm style makes the song drive and thrive. Genius chord progressions along with how he brings out individual notes and sounds. Plus his strumming style is so distinct which to me is superior compared with other players and groups of that era. He was such a force. You help us notice and reinforce our respect for John Lennon as an innovator on the guitar. Thanks as always Mike!
@brad - You are SO right! Lennon was world's apart from other rock/pop rhythm guitar players of the time.
@@MPfrance Yes indeed. Thanks again for enlightening me. I wouldn’t have been able to notice this by myself. Grateful to you for your hard work.
Wow - one of the greatest riffs ever - and songs - thank you!!
Mike, your breakdown and performance of these Beatles songs is always spot on and amazing to watch! Thanks so much for keeping their music alive and well. Hope that all is well in France! 👍👍👏👏
That was brilliant!!! The soundalike was a bloody marvellous cover in it's own right. Your wonderful unselfish musicianship illuminates the Beatles own unique, musicianship. Thank you so much.

Well done Mike. Bring on Strawberry Fields - love your cover!
Oh-boy, oh-boy, oh-boy! Mike has a new one out!

Mike is all the Beatles at once, or am I definitely Tripping ❤😂🎉
John's exact part has been a lifelong mystery for me. It's SO cool! Thanks for this!
Brilliant lesson complete with a fantastic explanation of the original recording in detail. Thank you so much Mike. 🌌🌅🌠👌🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@MPfrance 🌠🌅👌🏻
Really enjoy your "Sound Alikes" - Great work on all the parts. Thank you & Cheers from Seattle! 🍻
Mike. This was the song that got stated on my guitar journey. What an absolute joy to see you play this together piece by piece. BRAVO ❤
Hey Mike! Do you have a one after 909 guitar lesson video? :)
Thanks Mike! A great Fav! Strat played by George! Always Loved It! 🎸🎼💥
Your respect for the group and the instruments is exceptional.
This was great! I had no clue about John's rhythm part..thanks Mike.
I stunned by how close the main riff guitar's tone matches the original recording.
Like, it's shocking.
Very impressive.
Thank you for yet another (typically) thorough and helpful examination, Mike.
@Raw - Thanks, I appreciate your ability to hear the similarity of tone. I spent a LOT of time experimenting with different guitars, mic placements, various pre-amps and compressors to find that sweet tone spot.
You are the archeologist of guitar parts!! SO great!
one of the coolest songs of all time! Love the breakdown of Johns part! And i agree singing and playing this is crazy hard.
The breakdown of the guitar parts during the middle/solo was majestic! Many people overlook the ascending B scale riff. You are the best on You Tube!
Here it's another example of Mike Pachelli at his very best, thanks so much for such a stimulating chart! As regards vocals, maybe it should be noticed that though the song is John's, the first line of each verse is shouted by Paul, perhaps simply because John could not sing that high?
@rotanal - Thanks - very kind words indeed. And I think they just instinctively knew who's voice should go where to propel the song along.
I always thought Paul did the 2nd half of the solo. Love John’s jangly rhythm part! Thanks for a great lesson!
FANTASTIC Mike so well researched and performed.
Nice puns too - "fret" and "anyroad"!
God, I just love your videos 😊
Wow you actually give the historical context of the song, amazing. I'm definitely subscribing
@baj - Great. Welcome aboard! And yeah - if ya wanna play something accurately - it helps to know its backstory.
@@MPfrance Thanks. I can't wait to watch more of your videos👍
Perfect as ever.
Fab!
The one man Beatle band
For most of my life, when the opening riff is played, audiences go wonderfully crazy. I'm rather cheered that John's rhythm work followed his great work on I CALL YOUR NAME and YOU CAN'T DO THAT.

Mike your ears are like a surgeon’s scalpel to pick out ever nuance, either that or you have psychic connections with John and George. Whatever your analysis is epic. Many many thanks.
19:30 Wow! Now that you're suggesting Paul might have done the solo, I agree!
So my Beatles guitar book is showing to me wrong? It basicly the same chords but I'm learning in the cowboy chords first three frets from the nut.
Great lesson. I've always admired John's guitar part but like a lot of their early songs I just wish the dial was turned up a little higher so we could hear it more in the mix.
Could you upload the version with Epiphone casino again please?
My father believed it was about going to the Isle of White for an abortion. Wow, where was he coming from?
Playing aside, you really got an ear for tone dude. The three guitars that come in at the start are bang-on for tone color. The drums were a little more generic but holy fuck you could have tricked me on the guitar intro that it was an outtake.
Great drumming, Mike. You should include Ringo's part in the lesson.
Great Mike: been back playing the guitar for three years now and just ran into you.
Fantastic as always! I never realized Lennon was doing the rhythm like that in that position….you really get Maximum Rick 325 on this. He really worked it kind of Stones- ish .That Riff.!

I remember learning that riff back in 1966 and really thinking I was hot stuff.
Nice 1 Mike , cheers
Hey Mike,
Can you do a tutorial on how to play " If I needed Someone" please?
Love your Sound-A-Like, but if it gets censored then maybe best to let it go. The lesson is the most important.
Nailed it! Until I bought an electronic tuner I tuned my guitar by playing along with the opening riff of this.
Thanks for showing me I have been playing this solo incorrectly for years! ;-p Outstanding work - as always.

Let’s hope they won’t take this down and we'll have to wait again! But it shows how great a musician Mike is!
Especially one man Beatles so much pleasure!
Damn! 👏👏👏👏👏You even nailed the bridge harmonies. Wow.
This one you really got in the pocket!
Thanks for your channel :)
Excellent lesson and one of my favorite songs. This single was a turning point in my life. Thanks!
This is just BRILLIANT, Mike. You have great musicianship, and the soundalike recording is superb.
Many thanks!
Bravo, Mike!!! 😊
wauw! flabbergasting good stuff!
Thanks very much !
Maravilloso, thanks!!!🎉
Some of Ringo's best work, too.
Are still in France. Do you like it better than Nashville ???
@Steve - Yes - I permanently live in France and altho' I have dear friends in Nashville - ANYWHERE is better than Nashville...
