I was listening to this song yesterday. The opening riff that Ben pretty much mimics over the guitars in the second measure is fire.

Freaking crazy man..i was just thinking GOD it would be awesome if someone was to do a lesson on THIS song....and here you are the best guy to learn it from on the internet! Thanks JJ, your an awesome mentor here and a great inspiration to get the led out and learn from. I remeber you doing this under the PT name but it was a cover not a lesson.

They were a great band that I grew up with in the late '70s / early '80s. Im gonna dig out that album (yes vinyl) and give that song a spin. (Have it on cd too) Dust off the electric and have some fun. Hope my wife doesn't leave me! Thanks James!

That's a rare deluxe. In sixth grade we pulled the ol' "I'm sleeping over at my friends house!" and went from San Jose to the Oakland Coliseum by skateboard, bus and bart and spent the night in line to see the Who. (80?) I remember running for my life down the stairs to get to the field. Good times!

@@jamesjames9275 I hadn't read to the bottom to see your post before posting above... but here's my comment: 3dsman 1 second ago Best comment I ever read about Elliot Easton's playing was in an interview one of the Guitar magazines (Guitar Player?) was doing with him, when the said... "Your solos are amazing in that they sounds so spontaneous and yet it's quite clear that they're extremely well thought out". To which Elliot replied "Thanks... I work very hard to make them sound that way". Or... something along those lines... I'm going from memory here. But it summarized or now summarizes.. exactly how I've always thought about his solos too.. for a band that's largely thought of as a 'studio' band given their ultra tight synchronization.. they still somehow come off sounding 'loose' and fun. The lead runs in this song being 'case in point'.

I like to start it with a slide up to the 5th fret on the 5th string and ring the 4th open and ring that too to get that harmonic effect - especially since I'm covering both guitars and vocals on that particular piece.

Not sure if your part at 1:40. Could be the same notes but I have seen live videos of Eliot playing that part and his left hand stays in the range of the the first few frets... thinking he is doing some open chords.

Great catch on the A6 chord in the verses! No one else caught that. I think that in the C#-D-E-D-C#-B octave lick it sounds like he is playing three octaves at once. What do you think? Probably uses two guitars. Hard to do with just one.

Thank you, James for this video. Helps learn a great 80s tune that not many people play anymore. Based on the number of your Les Paul, would I be correct in assuming you are a fan of Pete Townshend of The Who?

This is incorrect. Yes, the notes are correct, but the fingering is wrong. Listen to the isolated track and you can hear the first arpeggio has an open B string.

Hey, I was wondering if you could do Brian Jones' parts on JJF at the Rock N' Roll Circus? Someone finally isolated the mix so you can hear him: kzitem.info/news/bejne/lZ5n2ZimbF-GYKQ He's the down tuned bass sounding guitar and the guy said he "plays a B power chord at 2nd fret then open single E note, F# then open A string for the riff. He plays power chords for chorus, middle 8 and outro. "

James James wear headphones. It’s hard to hear without. Brian’s comes in at around 6 seconds after the song starts. Keith is playing the trebly notes we all know (with assistance on the middle 8 from Nicky Hopkins). Underneath Keith’s guitar is Brian’s tunes very low to sound almost like a bass playing a simplified version of what he plays. You can hear him especially well on the choruses and middle 8. He plays power chords there. Listen with headphones and it becomes easy to hear. You’ll hear bass sounding guitar come in six or seven seconds after Keith starts
