Not only is Josh great at everything he sings and plays, he's just so much fun to watch. It's like discovering the guy next door is a musical genius and it's fun to cheer for him.
I’m 66 years old. I’ve been playing guitar since I was age 11. It’s sad how all these years I used to think I was good. Then Josh came along. Thanks a lot, Josh. Sigh.
For someone of 66 years of age, u r quite dumb. Stop comparing urself to other musicians/Guitarists Enjoy the level u r at, does it matter if u aren't the best player on the planet if u enjoy what u do? Life is not a competition, it's an exhibition
Roger Barreto Umm, Chill out Rog. My post was tongue in cheek. In jest. Sarcasm. Satire. Self deprecating humor. Calling me names? Wow. I’m a damned good guitarist. My comments were a tribute to Josh and his talents. Try to think next time before you make a fool of yourself. Have a super nice day.
Your performance with Allison was the first of your videos that I had seen. I was sharing it with my daughter and she was impressed with Miss Young's voice as I was. I said "yeah but listen to the guitar, this guy is incredible". True story.
Thank you Josh Turner for this. It is such a beautiful arrangement. I'm 63 YO and am on the final verge of nailing it!! I love that you have such a diverse repertoire, I'm a big fan and so appreciate your taking the time to break this song down and I learn cool stuff every time I watch you.
I'm so lucky to have been playing the guitar for 20 years to almost completely understand this. Thank you, Josh. I'd like to go on tour with you one day.
Dude. Soooo much yes. Deconstructing your own arrangements and making systematic sense of all of this is just fun to watch, let alone to use as a learning tool. Thank you! This is awesome.
I sing and play jazz standards as well as songs from other genres, so his arrangement is something I can do, or mostly do while I’m singing. I like to push myself. Thanks, Josh.
Hey man I just wanted to say that I’ve been practicing this song once a week for almost a year now and I am THOROUGHLY impressed with your hard work that you put into this song. This is so incredibly difficult compared to any other song I have learned. You definitely don’t get paid enough to take the time to make a song sound that good.
Thankyou Sir, just bought a sax, only for the need for a challenge, really appreciate your stuff, rreminds me of a late brother, I am oldish, my mother sang this when I was a child so many years ago, touches my heart greatly,
Agreed on so many fronts ppl. Josh thanks man for the concise breakdown of how you so naturally executed this challenging, ear bending piece. Your community appreciates this!
Nice arrangement. Beautiful playing, as always, And your arrangement complements the vocals really nicely. Thanks!! And it helps me to learn the technical jargon, like “weird twisty shit.” :)
Can't believe this. Watched the Allison Young performance for maybe the 20th time over the last year or so and thinking, I need to make a post , Please Josh do a How to lesson of your arrangement believing you have never done a lesson that I know of in the ten years or so watching you and all your amazing friends and by chance I find this and it's been here all along, thanks so much.
Josh, I have been trying to think of the best way to express just how tremendously talented you are and all those with whom you have made countless videos over these years. So the best way is simply this: I listen to one of your songs; then I have to listen to another, and then another--------. Just when I need to do something else, I tell myself, "just one more." There you have it. I wish you and all those with whom you sing, lead, or accompany the best. Whatever the genre, you all are able to capture the original sound of the original artists. To this I say, outstanding. I know the future holds some tremendous experiences and opportunities for all of you. Kudos!
Love the comments. You are what everyone says. Me, I say you play with the feel of an "old soul" guitar man. The only thing that could improve this tutorial would be to display the chords/Tabs in real time.
13:03 Josh: ''A lot to pick through in this section, but we can do it'' Me: ''I don't think I can Josh. I'm scared'' Holy cow, I have already put so many hours in this and it has been so rewarding and so challenging... each time I get a piece I'm like ''I don't think my head can remember any more of this song'' and each time I'm amazed at how progress is still being made. Thanks for this challenging but educative video Josh! (And underexplaining some things so we're left using our own hearing and thinking)
I know I'm late to the party, but I just saw you doing this with Allison. Both you and Allison were great. As something of a guitar player myself, I was impressed with the arrangement. So thanks for the lesson!
Please please please (I cannot stress this enough) make a tutorial of Paul Simon’s Graceland. I’ve watched your video so many times and can’t work out past the intro. Helppppp. I can’t find any tutorials that are anywhere close to as good as your arrangement
Would you ever consider any banjo lesson videos? Loved your martha my dear video and would love to know how you arranged it for banjo and the methods you approached it with.
Might sound a little dumb on my part, an instrument to compliment the voice you care to accompany, very, very rare, you will know it, when you find it, will be pure Magic!
Your arrangement is great! I'm not sure if could get to all the chords used. I'm going to try out. Thank you so much for sharing Josh. Wish you great success!
Josh ur great man been seeing u all over the tube , and i respect you. Ur arrangements, duets, solo performances. I am a huge dylan fan too I been trying to learn how to comp under blue eyes crying in the rain solo...theres this chromatic diminished bass run thing, at the very end ...at least thats what i think i hear, im stuck honestly If you know or have a vid already...or even a thought or advice....i would be so grateful....anyway yer great regardless...sincerely This is awesome btw and yer cover of dont think twice blew my mind
I wouldn't even attempt this since it's so far beyond my level of croaking out a few sloppy chords, yet this was fascinating. Josh's dedication to his craft is so impressive. BTW, did this get a little saucy at 21:57? No? Just me? Ok, never mind. Carry on.
Hey man, recently subscribed, love your channel. I suffer from a early onset arthritis from overplaying + bad form - I've been enjoying your style a lot and was curious if you could answer some burning questions: 1) What is the mm of string distance you prefer on your guitars for optimal tone+playability/ 2) What are your favorite strings + gauge? (I use elixers 12-.54 phosphor bronze, purely because I like the way they slide but I'd like to try something new!) Thank you :)
I think I could just about manage to play this slowly....except for the capo move which would leave my 50 year old Yamaha well out of tune! Great lesson. Thanks a lot.
Thank you so much for posting! I love your tutorials but this one is a little hard to follow... because of the way it's filmed it's hard to make out the exact left hand notes. Any help you can add here? Thanks
Thanks for sharing this Josh! It'll keep me busy for a while...the whole arrangement's #averyspicything! Is the guitar a 00028? I think i've figured out why you get so many undeserving thumbs downs, maybe it's the Harry Potter look and your guitar wizardry...think it freaks the stoners out... :-)
Lovely tutorial, though it would help much more if you explained what you were doing :) I feel like in some portions you played whatever and didn't explain what strings to hit or frets to play. Besides that, awesome tutorial Josh! It is hard to put genius into explanation.
Very good to learn with you Josh, please tell me wich strings do you prefer? 0,11 or 012 Addario, Ernnie ball...Nobody talk's about it, please be the first. Thank's
Talent is one thing. Sharing it is another! Because it inspires others. Thanks Josh!
Not only is Josh great at everything he sings and plays, he's just so much fun to watch. It's like discovering the guy next
door is a musical genius and it's fun to cheer for him.

For someone of 66 years of age, u r quite dumb.
Stop comparing urself to other musicians/Guitarists
Enjoy the level u r at, does it matter if u aren't the best player on the planet if u enjoy what u do?
Life is not a competition, it's an exhibition

@@georgelennon3618 lulz sorry haha
Roger Barreto 😉 Oh and btw, didn’t my user name tell you something about my passion about guitar? I didn’t just pick those two names out of a hat. 😬
@@georgelennon3618 that name sounded fishy ;)

Thank you, Josh. I'd like to go on tour with you one day.
Josh, just out of curiosity, how long does it take you to come up with an arrangement like this? It is a brilliant arrangement.
I love every video you write "I do not have tabs"
Dude. Soooo much yes. Deconstructing your own arrangements and making systematic sense of all of this is just fun to watch, let alone to use as a learning tool. Thank you! This is awesome.
Once knew a kind gent let me a a Martin to play about 40, 50 years ago, a collector, you handle that well kid, admire what you are doing.
The year is 2035, Dr. Joshua Lee Turner, Phd, world reknowned musician and tenured Professor at Juilliard.
Well said. Crazy skills and knowledge.
I sing and play jazz standards as well as songs from other genres, so his arrangement is something I can do, or mostly do while I’m singing. I like to push myself. Thanks, Josh.
This gave me a whole other appreciation of Willie Nelson. And thanks that I moved to Austin.
Thought you’d like this Josh

I 100% agree with this, lol

I watched this whole video knowing full well that I’ll never be able to repeat it and liked it too 😆
I honestly know, on a slow day, the right guitar, right girl that sings, will be magnificient, better than I spell!
Nice arrangement. Beautiful playing, as always, And your arrangement complements the vocals really nicely. Thanks!! And it helps me to learn the technical jargon, like “weird twisty shit.” :)

Lovely arrangement this Josh, thanks buddy
"I decided to obfuscate it and needlessly complicate it." Now that's great art.

Josh: ''A lot to pick through in this section, but we can do it''

Holy cow, I have already put so many hours in this and it has been so rewarding and so challenging... each time I get a piece I'm like ''I don't think my head can remember any more of this song'' and each time I'm amazed at how progress is still being made.
Thanks for this challenging but educative video Josh! (And underexplaining some things so we're left using our own hearing and thinking)
thanks for sharing~
your arrangement of billie eilish's bury a friend was also amazing!
Never knock you, you'd be a natural jazz guy if you wanted, nice stuff Man.
I know I'm late to the party, but I just saw you doing this with Allison. Both you and Allison were great. As something of a guitar player myself, I was impressed with the arrangement. So thanks for the lesson!
Can’t wait to get to learning this.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
you are amazing....divin..incredibil...Gretings from Romania(Europe)
Loved your partnership with Allison Young. Great!!
Gorgeous
Thank you Josh!!! You made this piece come alive for me.
I did not know this channel exists I’m so happy
Your such a Fantastic arranger
This is so brand new! How fantastic to discover the very same day!
Thanks heaps Joshua!
I have about 6 months into this lesson and still don't have it down! Those stretches in the last A section are kicking my ass!
Wow amazing. I can’t even come close
Please please please (I cannot stress this enough) make a tutorial of Paul Simon’s Graceland. I’ve watched your video so many times and can’t work out past the intro. Helppppp. I can’t find any tutorials that are anywhere close to as good as your arrangement
There's a pretty close tab on UG
Thankyou for lesson 👍🏻🎶🎸
Great job ! You inspire me to write more music
Would you ever consider any banjo lesson videos? Loved your martha my dear video and would love to know how you arranged it for banjo and the methods you approached it with.
Love it - thanks a lot, Josh, you're really someting else. Big fan here 👍✌❤

Formidable !!! Très musical !
NICEEEEE!!!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!
Thank you for this lesson! I would also appreciate a tutorial for your arrangement of "Summertime", it seems so fun to play :)
You conveyed the emotion within the lyrics well. 👌
I love your secondary channel bro, for real! Big thanks
Damn! The hell you say. I'll just stick with wild wood flower. 😂😂 Thats awsome Josh!
Thanks for the lesson! I vote for more in the future!

I am very happy with this lesson. Loved the early version with your female friend.
i needed this so much, thanks man
Genioooo! Saludos desde Argentina!!!
That was awesome. Thank you I will learn this.
Top work Josh, thank you! Buddy
Might sound a little dumb on my part, an instrument to compliment the voice you care to accompany, very, very rare, you will know it, when you find it, will be pure Magic!
CRAZY good arrangement Josh!
Your arrangement is great! I'm not sure if could get to all the chords used. I'm going to try out. Thank you so much for sharing Josh. Wish you great success!
Great lesson. Thanks. BTW, we have rainbow makers around our house too.
Wonderful. Thanks.

Thank you so much for the lesson!!
This is great
Good job sir
Josh ur great man been seeing u all over the tube , and i respect you. Ur arrangements, duets, solo performances. I am a huge dylan fan too
I been trying to learn how to comp under blue eyes crying in the rain solo...theres this chromatic diminished bass run thing, at the very end ...at least thats what i think i hear, im stuck honestly
If you know or have a vid already...or even a thought or advice....i would be so grateful....anyway yer great regardless...sincerely
This is awesome btw and yer cover of dont think twice blew my mind
Josh, you're a dream my god
My fingers detached itself from my hand after watching this.
Perfect for complimenting a voice Sir!
JOSH Please take a listen to Os Mutantes (brazilian band). Cheers from a big fan !
You should do a Graceland tutorial, your arrangement was great!
I wouldn't even attempt this since it's so far beyond my level of croaking out a few sloppy chords, yet this was fascinating. Josh's dedication to his craft is so impressive. BTW, did this get a little saucy at 21:57? No? Just me? Ok, never mind. Carry on.
Even with a lesson, I'm going to need to take a whole day for each phrase😅
I can’t believe that you can keep a straight face while teaching this stuff. I wish....
omg thank you
I know one of Willie's nieces. She's great.
Cifra Club Rocks!
Oh Thks !!! Wonderfull !!
Hey man, recently subscribed, love your channel. I suffer from a early onset arthritis from overplaying + bad form - I've been enjoying your style a lot and was curious if you could answer some burning questions:
1) What is the mm of string distance you prefer on your guitars for optimal tone+playability/
2) What are your favorite strings + gauge? (I use elixers 12-.54 phosphor bronze, purely because I like the way they slide but I'd like to try something new!)
Thank you :)
Know what your doing, like to hear ya cut loose!
Please make a tutorial for Quién será
I think I could just about manage to play this slowly....except for the capo move which would leave my 50 year old Yamaha well out of tune! Great lesson. Thanks a lot.
OYEAAAAHHH THANKS FROM RUSSIA
"bug a dum dum" made me laugh
Thank you so much for posting! I love your tutorials but this one is a little hard to follow... because of the way it's filmed it's hard to make out the exact left hand notes. Any help you can add here?
Thanks
I had no idea Ferris Bueller was such a great guitar player!!
Thanks for sharing this Josh! It'll keep me busy for a while...the whole arrangement's #averyspicything!
Is the guitar a 00028?
I think i've figured out why you get so many undeserving thumbs downs, maybe it's the Harry Potter look and your guitar wizardry...think it freaks the stoners out... :-)
Lovely tutorial, though it would help much more if you explained what you were doing :) I feel like in some portions you played whatever and didn't explain what strings to hit or frets to play. Besides that, awesome tutorial Josh! It is hard to put genius into explanation.
I would looooove a tutorial for Sunflower
Do a cover by the beach boys...dont worry baby !!
Mean no offence, sounds sonically sweet!
A close up of your fingers would help but love it regardless!
Very good to learn with you Josh, please tell me wich strings do you prefer? 0,11 or 012 Addario, Ernnie ball...Nobody talk's about it, please be the first. Thank's
