    This proves. He’s still better than any pop artist today. No one does this, this good

    I came to this tutorial over 2 years ago and couldn’t manage it, I decided to try again after rediscovering the song and it’s crazy how much easier to follow along it is now. Practice really does work huh

    Great lesson as per usual. McCartney is a very underrated acoustic player. His style is wonderful.

    Shutup & Play : Your explanations about this peculiar way of playing (with the index) changed my life ! I mean, after few weeks, my guitar playing progressed significatively... and it was 1 year ago ! Your tutos are absolutly perfect, useful, clear and so easy to understand and actually made me a better guitar player.

    It's not just the chords here but it's the light rhythms in between that make this easy sounding tune a very fast moving piece of work to try to keep up with. Thanks for pointing out all the little details with the Cm and Eb open chords. I like how he goes to the E in the second "losing sight of life" part of the bridge before going down to the descending F pattern. Very cool to catch that!

    Great song. Great tutorial. Thanks a million. I heard this song recently and tried to figure out how to play it. I knew there had to be some kind of alternate tuning after watching Paul M perform it live on CZcams. I was getting nowhere until I learned from your video that Paul drops his tuning by 2 half-steps. So, that means that it's actually in Bb. Correct? (The DeFacto key). I appreciate your clear & concise style. Enjoy!

  • @dank4254
    @dank4254 Před 6 lety +7

    Thank you for taking the time to show the picking pattern. So many videos will focus on the chords and blow over the picking.
    It looks like you are actually doing Bass down up Bass up Down as opposed to the Bass down up Bass down up that you say. Is that correct?

  • @michaelbedward
    @michaelbedward Před 6 lety +2

    This is a really great lesson - one of the best ever. When I first watched the demo I thought "no way!" but the explanations are so clear that I've got most of it down now. It's taken time and a lot of slow practice but so satisfying to play such a beautiful tune. Many thanks Andy.

    Thank you very much for your enthusiasm which really helps music lovers to
    comprehend better the mechanics of the attractive. As soon as you seem to be the
    only trustworthy interpretor of Sir Paul the acoustic - though you may smile and
    say, no there are few sof us, believe me, there's no one of the kind in the web -
    will you do us another favor and teach how to play a wrongfully forgotten
    McCartney's number, his brilliant BIP BOP LINK from the Wings Wild Life? Do it
    please, it is only 52 seconds long.

    You say wrong about it was a first in pop music history instrument, called duduk was used . A long time ago another british and brillant artist Genesis leader Peter Gabriel used the duduk after watching french/armenian director Henri Verneuil (aka Ashod Malakian) movie "588 rue Paradis" released 1992.
    Levon Ter Minassian from Marseilles France played this instrument. Another french musician and member of Steve Hillage band Gong Didier Malesherbes is also playing the duduk.

      Do you mean the finger picking? :v

    • @cygnusfloyd
      @cygnusfloyd Před 4 lety +2

      I know this is almost a year old but what you need to do is practice finger picking. You must learn the technique before you can make music using the technique. You'll suck for a long time but keep doing it and your brain will finally get it and your fingers will follow suit.

    Weird, you play "take these broken wings and learn to fly" part of Blackbird differently just playing the A string throughout, looks like it'd be much easier then switching between the low E to the A, which I can understand why you'd want to make that bit easier cause that's the easiest part to mess up on accident! I know cause I mess it up constantly! But that base string just sounds so good, I don't think I'll change it... Anyways I'm rambling, but yeh, you play Blackbird weird. The end.
