As a guitar player yes its really hard about remembering the notes to the solo not how fast the notes are played Edit: OMG 131 likes 😊 Edit: I'm turning 12 this november and holy cow the likes. I forgot abt this comment. I can still shred this solo like Allen could!
Ur not wrong. The solo itself is really pretty simple just all of the parts to remember is the hard part. Also, VRav, that’s what I do, just wing it lol!
@@Guitarplayerotherchannel Tbf, it's basically just G minor pentatonic with small part of major pentatonic squeeze near the end. But the fact that it's so chaotic, it's hard to remember to play it in order.
I just preformed the intro to this song at a friend’s funeral, it was his favorite song. Thanks so much for posting this I really wanted to learn the rest in his honor! Keep doing what you’re doing Mr. Tabs you’ve really helped improve my playing!
My condolences to you buddy and sorry for your loss. You’re very welcome for this and I feel very fortunate to do it through TH-cam so I can help people like yourself. Keep rockin!
Hey everyone! Initially, I had trouble getting the outro solo down. I spent so much time tabbing the song and creating the backing track that I neglected actually practicing. When I started playing the solo, my fingertips were too soft to hold the bends for any more than a couple of measures. To toughen my fingertips again, I practiced bending on an Acoustic guitar with 13 gauge strings. SRV would approve I'm sure. When I returned to playing this solo, it was much easier! Lesson learned and note to self - keep practicing as you are tabbing. I have double tracked the lead guitars in this to give the classic sound. The only difference is that I didn't stray from the guitar that I heard in the right speaker from listening to the recording. So I made it one tab and decided not to overcomplicate things. Really enjoyed working on this song and I hope you have fun learning it!
5:12 this part always gives me chills on top of the chills i already have. i love the progression. this song plays the guitar, it’s so filled with emotion it’s hard to express
I think what people forget about this song when performing it live is that the greatness of the solo depends upon the tightness of all the other instruments. The drums have got a real job to do, not just pace wise but keeping the tempo of everyone in line, the bass has got to be flying about too, I mean its an insane bass line, and the keys and other guitarists have to be so on point. It's the wall of sound created by all of it together that makes the solo truly explode.
@@CaddRome True. But not in the same way dudes like NIN and Tool or Zappa... I'm pretty sure Kurt let the other members write their own parts. It was more of a group effort around Kurt's songs... As opposed to like Paul McCartney telling George Harrison exactly how the Let It Be solo was supposed to go. 🤷🏻♂️
One of the most creative things I have ever seen is the fact that in the solo part, you covered the guitar with a green tape and used a green screen effect to make it look orange. Incredible :) I also wanted to learn this song for ages. This video will be extremely helpful. I can't thank you enough for all the amazing work you do.
Also it's actually a wood effect. You can see the base texture is not wood, because the strains look at the same spot while the guitar is moving. Hence, it's still a pretty dope effect 😄

I've been practicing this solo every day for close to a month now. I was extremely surprised that I was able to even learn this solo, let alone play it at 75% speed, but the jump from 75% to 100% speed is just insane.
This solo (actually the whole cover) is so fucking awesome and perfect that i could start crying. Note for note, the sound, everythings just- so damn on point. Youre a damn legend
Absolutely fantastic as always...tone and chops alike! I especially liked that "love tap" at 6:33 and didn't even break stride...definitely a pro move there :) And btw, how many people go to the extra effort of green-screening their guitar to get the accurate color/wood tone? That's just crazy and shows the effort you put in to the production of these videos. Thanks for all your wonderful contributions, especially this masterpiece!

Just when i'm getting tired and can't think of something to learn, Mr. Tabs comes along and just comes along to guide me to my next challenge! lol. Thanks man, you rock and this is amazing.
This was note for note perfection. Lots of players think this song is easy because it is sort of a collection of basic blues riffs but the timing is what makes it difficult. Getting the bends and double stops etc with the right speed down to hit all the proper accents and moments that give the solo its charm is what makes it hard.
Legendary!!!!!!! I used to love playing this I'm looking forward already to the level of accuracy I know you will present!! Great work you are doing. You smashed it!!!
I was at an old guitar store in northern New Mexico, and this old grey haired guy played parts of this song on an old electric 🎸 12 string. It blew me away like a hurricane wind. Never asked his name, that was awesome.
Thanks for your hard work, perseverance and taking the time to put all this together. It paid off. "Free Bird" in addition to "Call me the Breeze" were/are my favorite songs to jam to from this group. 🎸😎Tim

Definitely is impressive. Luckily when you practice a lick over and over again it becomes easy, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to impress my friends by doing it
Been playing along with this the past few days and have worked my way up to doing most of the solo at 90% speed now. Some of the faster bits I still need to work on and my fingers are sooooo sore from all these bends. :D
This has been my favorite song for ages now... I would have been able to play this right now if I had the money to buy a guitar when my passion started. But I won't give up, one day I will play this song through hours of dedication and learning. Thank you for uploading amazing tutorials like this ❤️

But dude- i love your tabs and seeing you execute the stuff so cleanly and in perfect time is really inspiring. 🙏👊👍

Awesome cover, big props getting that Gary sound and using an SG, his signature for the slide parts. I read a few times that Gary got that perfect slide sound that sounded almost like a lap steel by placing a nail between the strings and saddles on his bridge to raise the action just enough to avoid the frets while sliding but still leave the action playable.
Amazing!! You killed it man! I knew it was coming, but I'm still blown away by how accurate your playing is and how effortless you make it look. I don't know how to describe it, it's like you have oodles of time to get to each note and nothing is rushed. Perfect!
Thank you. I try not to rush the tabs and gauge how much I will get done in the run of a week and practice accordingly. This one took longer than I expected, but I’m happy I didn’t rush it.
Idk no if the guitar turning to green was a weird comp issue but imma think you played it on two guitars and seamlessly edited those parts together because that was dope
Looks like he taped green tape all over the explorer to create a green screen on the guitar for videos, pretty smart. Green screen just happened to mess up for a second and show what the guitar really looks like haha
@@cosmicbro1973 Definitely green tape and green screen, I didn't notice until it glitched though lol. Afterwards it was obvious when looking at the outline of the guitar.
Taped up green, then green screened to look yellow, and the effect losing colour was on purpose. It didn't just happen to change just as that long bend note was about to hit ha
Os caras para darem dislike desta vídeo aula devem ser uns deuses na guitarra, o cara mandou super bem mesmo, se eu tocasse metade do que ele tocou estaria fazendo uns showzinho em barzinhos por aí, parabéns 👏👏👏

For I must be traveling on, now
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see
[Pre-Chorus]
But if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you cannot change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change
[Bridge]
[Verse 2]
Bye, bye, baby, it's been a sweet love, yeah yeah
Though this feeling I can't change
But please don't take it so badly
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
But, if I stay here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you'll never change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change
Lord help me, I can't change
[Outro]
Lord, I can't change
Won't you fly high, free bird, yeah
Awesome cover, big props getting that Gary sound and using an SG, his signature for the slide parts. I read a few times that Gary got that perfect slide sound that sounded almost like a lap steel by placing a nail between the strings and saddles on his bridge to raise the action just enough to avoid the frets while sliding but still leave the action playable.
Amazing!! You killed it man! I knew it was coming, but I'm still blown away by how accurate your playing is and how effortless you make it look. I don't know how to describe it, it's like you have oodles of time to get to each note and nothing is rushed. Perfect!
Thank you. I try not to rush the tabs and gauge how much I will get done in the run of a week and practice accordingly. This one took longer than I expected, but I’m happy I didn’t rush it.
@@Mr.Tabs.Guitar.Lessons Well worth it! Incredibly accurate!
That was killer! Really tight playing, my good man! 🤘🎸😃
This solo is true gold and very difficult on guitar(imo), but people should recognise how difficult it is for the rest of the band!
What an amazing cover, great job 👏
Idk no if the guitar turning to green was a weird comp issue but imma think you played it on two guitars and seamlessly edited those parts together because that was dope
The Explorer is really in a green finish, so he used it as a green screen to get a natural finish
Looks like he taped green tape all over the explorer to create a green screen on the guitar for videos, pretty smart. Green screen just happened to mess up for a second and show what the guitar really looks like haha
@@cosmicbro1973 Definitely green tape and green screen, I didn't notice until it glitched though lol. Afterwards it was obvious when looking at the outline of the guitar.
Taped up green, then green screened to look yellow, and the effect losing colour was on purpose. It didn't just happen to change just as that long bend note was about to hit ha
6:30 I had no idea until it broke. Now I can't unsee it.
6:31 lol
lol
My man is so skilled his guitar changed green for a sec 😂 but seriously this guys tabs taught me how to play free bird
Lo voy mirando 6 veces desde que salio... La canción de mi vida😳
Best version and best tab of this anywhere. This is perfect.
Wowie, it's amazing how difficult this song actually isn't lol
I don't play guitar, but I watch this video every day.
Your playing skills are very neat.
Mate, this is amazing playing. So much hard work. Thank you for sharing
Thank you too!
Simply superb. If there is a more infectious foot-tapper in all of rock'n'roll, I've yet to hear it...
Os caras para darem dislike desta vídeo aula devem ser uns deuses na guitarra, o cara mandou super bem mesmo, se eu tocasse metade do que ele tocou estaria fazendo uns showzinho em barzinhos por aí, parabéns 👏👏👏
Exatamente
Awesome lesson. Thank you for this.
amazing work! what kind of slide are you using?
It’s a Jim Dunlop brass :)
@@Mr.Tabs.Guitar.Lessons thank you so much
You are not a human! Guitar hero!
