Thanks for watching!
Love the cheesy 70's sitcom grin-freeze!
The lesson's great, too!
hahahaha I forgot I did that edit in this clip! I was playing around with adobe premiere and discovered I could do a cheesy freeze frame - there's all sorts of goofy effects I can add: lighting bolts, lens flare, strobe, - it's pretty tempting use them all.

You broke it down and explained it perfectly
Thank you so much my friend! This is great
I knew it was in D minor! My ear is getting better!
Man on every video your tone is spot on !
Thanks so much, Dominic!
To me, tone comes first - I never could really shred, so I decided early on to make sure my guitar sounds nice. Very much a David Gilmour kind of approach :-)
Thank you. Great song, great tone, beautiful Mustang guitar
Thanks Keith!
I found your channel yesterday, I love your style of playing and amazing non generic lessons , very different from normal guitar channels. Love that you make lessons on velvet underground and Wilco rarely someone does that, it's all just thrash and Nirvana lessons out there not that I don't like that , but just like my music choices I want my music channels to be diverse as well. It's pretty clear from the quality of your content that you are going to get huge , going to recommend you to all my guitar buddies. Sorry for this long comment ,had to tell you ;)
P.S. it doesn't hurt that you are a Frusciante fan and a humble person(from what I can see).Cheers and Best Of Luck for the future mate, it looks bright for you
Thanks so much for such a thoughtful and detailed comment!
When I started this channel a few years back, I thought it was a risk to do more obscure artists that I just happen to love. What I've learned it that there's lots of people out there with the same eclectic tastes! It's so great!
I really feel like my channel is a community of interesting, smart, guitarists of discerning and unique music collections. It's very dear to me :-)
Eric Haugen I am infact going through your videos to explore artists I've not been able to get into until now. Living in a small town in a small state of India doesn't do much help, even people who are into music are mostly into the mainstream Music from the 90s and classic rock.
That's really interesting though - kinda like a time warp, musically!
Those were my thoughts when I found this channel. The first one to catch my ear was a really uniqe and awesome rhythm post. It sounded so simple when he did it - I really struggled to get the swing of it. Eric's talent is obvious and his approach to sharing it is a pleasure.
Love this . Thanks
Great, thanks again! Keep 'em coming, can't get enough! :)
Yeah buddy! You know I will!
（ ^_^）o自自o（^_^ ）
Awesome Thank you kindly , class tutorial 🎸🎸🎶🎶☘☘
My pleasure, man!
Excellent lesson - clear, concise, to the point and easy to follow. Most of all, you are trying to show us the chords of the song and not how much of a hotshot guitar player you are. Well done Eric.
Thanks so much, Ian!
I know what you mean about "hotshot" guitar teachers - I've taken my share of lessons from those folks.
I strive to empower my students, rather than humble them :-D
I agree Ian. That said, this is one of the few channels that I look forward to the initial performance that proceeds the instruction. His rhythms are smooth and intuitive. His arrangements are interesting and make me want to stepping up my game. He doesn't show off but you can tell he actually is a "Hot Shot".
Brilliant thanks
My pleasure Daniel!
This made my day. Thanks for the lessons!
Thanks for tuning in! I really appreciate it!
So glad I found your channel! :-) Once again, great work.
Thanks, friend!
Hey, thanks for your help.
It's my pleasure!
Thanks for watching!
Very fun !!! Dig it !!!! TY Eric ! 😁🖒
Yeah! This is great little rhythm workout!
This is one of my all-time favorite Waits tunes. I learned it slightly different but close enough to yours. The one thing I wished you would have included, that I can't seem to figure out, is the horn part at about 2 minutes in, just a nice descending riff that could really embellish a nice guitar version of this song. Any chance you could suss one out??
+Jared Wolfsen Ooh good idea! It's always fun to transcribe non-guitar things over to guitar 🎷➡️🎸
Great request. There isn't credit or attention given to Waits for his work.
cool. found this after I lfigured it out by ear. would love to show you my way. : D
on quarantine so going to figure out most of this album
This is great. How did you get that tone?
Gah!!!!! I somehow knew this song was in D but I could I ever suss out what chord shapes and patterns to use to play it on guitar? No...... Thanks for this, what a brilliant song to play on guitar.
Excellent! I'm happy to help!
I would love to hear you playing Hoist that Rag
Yeah - I gotta work that one out!
The syncopation is so tricky though!
This one definitely benefit with practicing with metronome. Especially to get off beat base note and pause right
Ah yes the dreaded metronome! Certainly a useful practice tool, though （´∀｀）
Truth be told, I don't really use them for practice anymore. I end up playing with click tracks and drum loops so much that I don't worry about it. I'm a bad role model! ¯\(ツ)/¯
I'm using it for time to time, for most parts I'm tapping with my foot. First thing I've done when I was learning from you video was tapping for your playing to get clear idea about rhythm of a song. Helps a lot :) I'm big rhythm guy
Nice! Foot-stomping is the best way to keep the groove goin'! I'm glad that I could help ya with that!
For me, I've learned over the years that I always rush tempos and downbeats, so I try really hard when practicing or recording to play slowwwwww.
Eric, as I've said before, I love your taste in music and I gravitate to learning riffs from you and teachers like you. But I've come to feel my guitar learning has gotten fragmented in that I'm drawn to great bluesy riffs but avoid learning the verse-chorus-verse of whole songs. Or going through repetitive 12-bar progressions. I'm wondering, in your opinion, the role or place of riffs in guitar study - especially for someone developmentally stuck somewhere at the beginner's level. Thanks!
Good question, Ron! To me playing can be divided into 3 main activities:
1) Strumming Chords
2) Playing Riffs and Melodies
3) Improvising
It do think that strumming chords is important to playing guitar. I haven't offered many videos on my channel about strumming only because I haven't found a concise way to present the material ....yet.
My advice would be to go to a site like chordie.com, pick out some simple songs, and strum along and sing.
Some specific recommendations for good strum and sing songs:
Dead Flowers by The Rolling Stones
Bad Moon Rising by CCR
Mr. Tambourine Man by Bob Dylan
Where Do The Children Play by Cat Stevens
The Weight by The Band
Maybe I overstated the part about avoidance. There are songs I practice daily: Dead Flowers was one of them, Signed D.C. by Love is the song I'm most trying to perfect, and there are others. But Dead Flowers is very much a case in point, it's so utterly repetitive to play! So, many teachers teach riffs, and I do find playing riffs very seductive. That's why I ask about their place in a structured program of guitar study.
Ah I see. It's true, strumming chords can be dull and repetitive. I think that's where seeking out new chords, strumming patterns, fingerpicking, and alternate tunings comes into play. I think many of us who get bored with cowboy chords get curious about jazz chords - diminished, maj7th, etc. - maybe that's a good place to go next!
¯\(ツ)/¯
Sorry to butt into this little chat but- I think in some cases it's the repitition thats locks-in the groove. It can be hypnotic and sometimes I'm in that mood. I might be presumptuous here but it appears to me that is the place where some of Eric's - dig deep - rhythms come from.
Awesome as always, Eric! I thought the 5-5 chord at the is is sliding up, or a hammer on from 0-2, just from memory, maybe I'm wrong. :-)
0-1, sorry!
Oh yeah! I think I see what you mean - it could be 5-5 on the D-G or just as easily 0-1 on the G-B. I elected to do 5-5 because on my mustang the 0-1 sounded too twangy.
¯\(ツ)/¯
+Eric Haugen yes! :-)
Excellent. Now help me do the vocals
Could you please do a lesson for "I want you" by Tom Waits?
By the way: Great work!
Oh that's a good one! I love his early stuff! I'll add that to my "songs to figure out" list!
mirinae IGOTARMYL Hi! If you´re looking for Tom´s early years feel free to check out my channel. :-)
Anyone know whether the tone on Waits' song is from a fuzz pedal or a cranked small tube amp?
Good question! It sounds like a fuzz box to me, but you never know!
the begining of that sounds like "how's it gonna end"
Totally!
It's almost the same riff!
Ice cream man....
dunno man. This song feels more correct in open G tuning. Try it out
Kind of right but not quite
I love it - thanks.
Great thanks!
It's my pleasure!
Viva la Tom Waits!
