How does this video only have 303 likes, counting mine, just now? And, only 21,000 (+) views? In about four years since it was created. You really dive in deep to my favorite music, and have continually blown my mind with your theory. You're without a doubt, my fave teacher, ever! And can't stress enough how under appreciated what you do, is. Your really doing something great, Michael. And doing it better than anyone, today. I really appreciate your work, amd can't wait to see what direction you decide to take your work in, in the future. I will continue my support. No matter what you may decide to do. You're really special, and seem to be a hell of a great guy.
I'll never understand how things like this get any thumbs down. Hard to look over that glaring voice of my generation's disgruntled whiny culture. They don't even need a reason to be negative.
Well done!!!You've managed to serve up more knowledge and understanding about music than all these other note for note copy cats. Up until now it's basically been trying to memorize songs and scales. That's just BS. Every one of your lessons provides something special I can apply to my music going forward. That's a great investment of time for anyone looking to learn this or any instrument.I watched this w a friend who has been playing 40 yrs and has never done these youtube lessons (old school), and he was blown away by your approach. In short... Thank you for taking so much time to put these out there. Greatly appreciated!MUCH continued success to you.
Dude - thank you so much for taking the time to write this! You made my day, and I need a little encouragement from time to time - don't we all! All the best brother!
Really interesting and even if one doesn't play it just knowing how it is put together gives a new insight and appreciation when listening - all those nit picking don't add anything constructive. Excellent and love your enthusiasm.
Haven't read all the comments, but in the Gregg Allman solo version (LAid Back album, Dm), Gregg tuned to Open G. I saw him many times and asked Dan Toler in 1984 what tuning GA used for Midnight Rider and he confirmed.
I’ve been watching all your videos ,trying to learn. I just bought a Les Paul GoldTop and I love Warren Haynes and The Allman Brothers. Amazing how you break the videos down, God your one talented guy!😮😊
I'm going from memory only and I'm 63 , so apologies up front if I am wrong with any facts...I read here that Greg had the song and the band passed on it initially....I just goggized that and it was released by the ABB on their first album " Idlewild South" in 1970... Greg's version ( minor ) was on "Laid Back" solo album, released in 1973...So I'm confused here, but moving to my original reason for posting... I was pretty much introduced to the band about the time the minor version was hitting radio...And I've always loved that version much more than the bands version...And that's a hard thing to even admit to as a life long devotee to this band....Anyway, Greg's version from the gate is guitar driven but backed more closely by his keyboard right from the intro...I mean, the acoustic track could almost be the " D" chord , surrounded the keyboard in the first 4 notes of the song...( Forgive me, I learned by ear only)...But the whole song is altered from those first 4 notes and he really made it much better IMHO.... Don't know where it charted, but I remember it was on the air constantly, and to a 13 year old kid, blew my socks off...But you can't really make the connection here since you used his live version to compare it with the band's version..The studio version would be a better example IMHO...But hey, my hands won't even let me pick anymore..And ive watched a lot of your tutorials and love the way you teach stuff... Hopefully, with more physical therapy, my fingers will let me pull my gear out of my closet one day soon....Thanks for keeping my thirst to play alive !
Hi Michael, thank you for your really interesting insights. Good fun to watch. I like your hear and feel approach. Who cares about exact note by note if you cover Jam band Songs anyway .. Here are my two bits regarding Midnight Rider: I have been working on Allmann Songs for a while (I predominantly do Slide stuff in Open Tunings). It seems as if Gregg composed most of his older Songs on guitar (I think he started out as a guitar player), and hereby seems to have used Open G tuning sometimes. There are a few great vids on CZcams in which he plays "Come and Go Blues" by himself in Open G. I was trying for figure our Midnight Rider for my Jug/Jam Band and noticed that the acoustic versions are different from the electric versions, just as you did. Gregg plays acoustic guitar on the Austin City Limits and Live at the Beacon versions. And I am Pretty sure he has the guitar in Open G, although the song is of course in D. So, he plays Open G, and thus plays the D chord in the open position, and then he does something very interesting at the end of the verse: instead of Gm7 - C as in the electric versions, he does G7 - Gm7 (or rather Bflat) - C. The sequence G7 - Bflat - C is very simple Open G, so something for the lazy guitar player. I like the acoustic versions better for their swampier feel, so that's what we are now going with. Thanks again and I will tune in again...Cheers from Munich, Germany...
Martin, you are absolutely correct on the Open G and chord sequence of G7 - Bb - C at the end of the verse. And yes very simple, yet not cliche, just like all of Come And Go Blues - -no one Open G cliche in the song.
I've tried this on jam nights... Love the Crossroads version with Greg Allman, Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks..... What a great song it is.... Makes me think of High Plains Drifter/The Outlaw Josey Wales.... Simple words... Rolling sound..... Recently heard Eric Johanson 's version - in key of A I think!!! It's superb!! Isn't music amazing?!
Great video!! Great detail!! Wished you could’ve done the studio recording from Gregg’s album laid back. It’s the original minor version and Chuck Leavell is playing keys on it.
I’m from Georgia and have been listening to the Allman Brothers since the 70’s, my whole life. While I love Gregg I still prefer the original version with Duane and Dicky guitars over Gregg’s more organ centric solo version.
I was tripping out trying to learn this, i could have sworn I heard it one way the minor, then I check out CZcams and it would me the major lol. Thanks for this, it was bugging me lol.
Well you're awesome great observation I was wondering about that too I really really love the Greg Allman version cuz I'm two more darker and more hunting things most of the time and that dark intro really I just really feel in a dark place in my soul. I heard it up not too long ago is was going up I go to the methadone clinic by 5 in the morning. I have to have something to control my pain otherwise I'll get myself into trouble I just live in a lot of pain as hell. Back in 1990s just all these people I knew and all these friends and even my cousin she recently died in a fire. So many other people have died drugs and cancer and only 43 and it feels like most of the world is dead friends acquaintances, rock stars. It's crazy. I just really feel this on even just talking about it and thinking about it and you can be in here listen to this musical genius here who has finally called it out and is putting it down thanks brother yeah both versions are cool but the deeper version down to your soul version that's that's what you got to have Gregg Allman version but it's too bad about the whole band and all these other great bands that are gone and will never be again as even more today sad feeling nothing about the world and is Gregg Allman version is like the perfect soundtrack today dark areas of my life and for a lot of people feel the same.
Just think ...... he's 21 when he wrote this.......saw Duane play three times before he passed...... I'm that age......what a fucking band......so sad that there gone......never will be another group of guys like that he's the reason I play guitar
I'm only half way through this...,but my first thought is this: since there is no stated third in the opening and main acoustic guitar riff, you have suspended a major - minor center and only have a modal "D" feel - which is a tried and true folk blues feel...,allowing the play for the vocal to slide in and out of the flatted third. Otis Redding comes to mind, although I think many solo Delta and Texas blues players used this technique. Actually, I really like your approach to this analysis....,
there are not two versions. both do the same key change. D -> F ( Dminor as relative minor... the Bb and C are the 4 and 5 chords of F). Only difference in the second version is that they accentuate minor licks over the D major chord...no surprise here, we all play minor blues licks over a major chords all the time because it sounds good. That all that is going on here. That being said this video is old. Im sure Michael has realised this by now.
Michael, my band going to attempt the Gregg version, been playing the ABB forever ( I play bass) , I was looking for some insight into Greggs's version, your video great help.I live in NYC & should you know people who need Allmans bass have them contact me. Again thanks for the video, you're brilliant!
Gregg recorded this basic arrangement on his debut album in 1973, Laid Back. I like it better than with The Bros. Gregg wrote it, so he can do what he wants.
We do this tune in a 2 piece. Thanks so much for helping me take it over the top, you are awesome! Loved the Allman Brothers since the beginning. For me its Duane , Dickey and Dan Toler as the best of the guitarists. Listen to "I'm no angel" and "Just before the bullets Fly" albums to hear some of the best vocals and tasteful guitar playing . Dan Toler is up there with the best of them. Maybe you just get a tune off one of those albums?
Ive seen this same type of scenario maybe with a Blues tune ,I looked at it as D neutral kinda of an appalacian drone thing, but it opens up major and minor pentatonic options for riffing and soloing
The original version WAS Gregg's version from his Laid Back album....he brought it to the Allman Brothers....I bought that first Solo record of Gregg's......WAS blown away
The ABB version came out in 1970, Laid Back came out in 1973. The LB version may have been what Gregg originally wrote, but the ABB version came out several years before.
Your over all analysis of the basic tonal harmony of the song is correct; however, in blues it is common to use a mixolydian scale that incorporates both the major and minor aspects... this is what you have identified as the minor sound in the song ... Some blues tunes incorporate a Dorian mode, but I do not think this is the case here. As for the later version that Greg uses in his acoustic performances with the band, I believe this is probabley the original version of the song when it was written. If you use correct drop D tuning, you will get that characteristic sound at the beginning. Listen to the Austin City Limits version of the song and you will see what I mean
I heard yesterday that Vince Gill is now going to be part of the new Eagles. Also Glenn Freys' son Deacon is also a replacement. This should be interesting !
Excellent video and analysis Than you! Am I the only one who cannot hear the Vince Gill guitar section, starting at the 33 min mark ? There is blank audio during the playback of the two first listens of Vince ?? Am I missing something here ?
Not for sure but it sound like greg's has his guitar tuned to open G on 2nd version. Sounds real similar to His solo version of come and go blues which was tuned to open G.
Just play it exactly the way you feel it. Its what i do when that happens. And you sound like a player that can make his own version, and tare the crowd up with a fresh curve to a over played sigle version that we all hear on the radio every time we drive our asses to the gig
Answer me please? And tell me the truth please? When you go hear a band playing, do you prefer it be played to an exact science or played in a new way? I to have been a guitar man, since i was 14 years old, now im 50, and i just plain got tired/bored playing any cover the same as everyone else. I used to be just like you in this video. Greg Allman's a bad ass musician...but so are you bro.
Have you been nabbed by the copyright police? Lots of silence at the end of the video where the third version of the song that you discuss mutes out. Really enjoying your vids though.
Před 4 lety+1
29:55 And he composed this just a year or two after the loss of his brother...really strange how you say that. It's almost like you figured it out man. We figured it out..
If you knew anything at all about the Allman Brothers band they have about 10 different guitars going at the same time. Just one question didn't your daddy never tell you not to cross your legs like a woman???
I appreciate your videos,but you should be more accurate with some of the stuff you are talking about.That bridge at 16:02. The bass is not doing that at all! If you listen,he is pedaling C to Bb ,before going back to the chorus.Cmon man!
Dude - Thanks for jumping in on this - So I listened again, and I think you're right for the original recorded version...but it is all over live recordings..I think I got caught learning too many versions at the same time! Regardless, this is jam band territory and it's going to be different each time it's played :) I'll make sure and triple listen before turning the cameras on next time.
Everything's basically jam territory, its R&R. I think it's way more important to show people concepts and let them explore within wiggle room. I can do great versions of Wind Cries Mary and Hey Joe but whenever I read tabs i realized over time how much I've adapted it to suit my style. Hendrix was the same, it's amazing how much live versions would change over time. Hey Joe was a perfect example, he seemed to use that as a practice song and play all five chords with different shapes in each verse. For an intermediate or advanced beginner, that song was what helped me understand the flexibility of modern music and how much room for interpretation there is and how to play chords in several different ways. The guy who asked the question about not being able to use barre chords cause his fingers were too short, Check out Hey Joe tab, he played an A chord in at least 3 different ways. Hendrix rarely used bar chords and I hear he had really long fingers.
@@Guitargate Yes, the horns and strings from the Gregg Allman solo version definitely are doing that bass walk, and certainly a guitar part that is played on the original ABB version.
Wrote you are exactly loving looking for yes there are 2 versions the first version is okay but the second version is the best it's haunting it's dark I'm trying to find all Over the place how to play that version I've Only been able to Find the Original version which is just not exactly my cup of tea if I'm gonna play one of the 2 versions it's gotta be the darker moral haunting minor KEY 1 unfortunately I'm just like a tablet you're guitarist I Don't Know how to read notes All That kind of stuff you Know I have learned all sorts of Covers Over the years and I've learned about anything but I'm unable to acquire this spider either so I Don't Know if it's an E flat too many I Don't Know what the hell is going on I'll try to figure out a number of ways no knock it so let's see what you've got Here.
This is one very knowledgeable music man...I'm blown away.
23:35 "Why?... Because it's fantastic!!" Greatest explanation ever. :)
Exactly.
This is the best guitar lesson I’ve ever seen on CZcams. Great song and fantastic job of explaining the details to us.

Didn't Duane die in 71?
@@johnthornton4266 yes he did. I think the band broke up after his death.

Excellent video 👍
Thanks !!!! Loved the sound of the solo and the two guitars, and couldn't figure out what I was hearing.
I dig it. The second version was done on Gregg Almann solo album I believe in 1973. He said it wasn't quite right the first time.
Hi Michael, thank you for your really interesting insights. Good fun to watch. I like your hear and feel approach. Who cares about exact note by note if you cover Jam band Songs anyway ..

The second "minor" version is from Gregg's Laid Back Tour which dates back to 1973
Really great instructor got so much. from your vidieo thanks a mil.
I was tripping out trying to learn this, i could have sworn I heard it one way the minor, then I check out CZcams and it would me the major lol. Thanks for this, it was bugging me lol.
First time listener, but I dig this breakdown of Gregg and Vince! You do know there is audio missing. Right?

The best of this song was done on his record “Laid Back”
I want a lesson for the Hank Jr. version.
In jazz this sort of chorus progression is common, and is called a "backdoor II-V".
Brilliant lesson
I dont really care for blue guitars but damn... that prs is an exception. That faded denim-ish kinda finish. Love it
Well done. Thank you.
I'm only half way through this...,but my first thought is this: since there is no stated third in the opening and main acoustic guitar riff, you have suspended a major - minor center and only have a modal "D" feel - which is a tried and true folk blues feel...,allowing the play for the vocal to slide in and out of the flatted third. Otis Redding comes to mind, although I think many solo Delta and Texas blues players used this technique. Actually, I really like your approach to this analysis....,
If you listen closely you can hear the keys playing the D major chord with the third (F#) six seconds into the song.
tip......tune 1rst e string to D...u will find what your looking for.
Thank you
Gregg brought the song to the band, they didn't like it. So, he recorded and released it first. That Allman Brother's recorded it later.
there are not two versions. both do the same key change. D -> F ( Dminor as relative minor... the Bb and C are the 4 and 5 chords of F). Only difference in the second version is that they accentuate minor licks over the D major chord...no surprise here, we all play minor blues licks over a major chords all the time because it sounds good.

Again thanks for the video, you're brilliant!
Have you heard the Stephen Stills version of this song from "Thoroughfare Gap"? He changes up the riff. A live version by Stills also around.
Gregg recorded this basic arrangement on his debut album in 1973, Laid Back. I like it better than with The Bros. Gregg wrote it, so he can do what he wants.
was hoping for laid back version too
spectacular!
We do this tune in a 2 piece. Thanks so much for helping me take it over the top, you are awesome! Loved the Allman Brothers since the beginning.

Ive seen this same type of scenario maybe with a Blues tune ,I looked at it as D neutral kinda of an appalacian drone thing, but it opens up major and minor pentatonic options for riffing and soloing

Hi, can you show the Whiping Post chords in the Gregg Allman¨s solo version ?
Your over all analysis of the basic tonal harmony of the song is correct; however, in blues it is common to use a mixolydian scale that incorporates both the major and minor aspects... this is what you have identified as the minor sound in the song ...

I heard yesterday that Vince Gill is now going to be part of the new Eagles. Also Glenn Freys' son Deacon is also a replacement. This should be interesting !
Excellent video and analysis Than you! Am I the only one who cannot hear the Vince Gill guitar section, starting at the 33 min mark ? There is blank audio during the playback of the two first listens of Vince ?? Am I missing something here ?
A Masterclass on the ABB...doesn't get much better than this. Any suggestions on ear training courses brother?
Not for sure but it sound like greg's has his guitar tuned to open G on 2nd version. Sounds real similar to His solo version of come and go blues which was tuned to open G.
And the most amazing thing about the Greg / Zac / Vince version is that JACK PEARSON is standing behind them all and doesn’t play a lead lol
Jack always knows how to fit into the mix. Superb player.
I’m trynna learn theory and you do a good job on explaining what’s happening .. thanks .. new sub🎸
Just play it exactly the way you feel it. Its what i do when that happens. And you sound like a player that can make his own version, and tare the crowd up with a fresh curve to a over played sigle version that we all hear on the radio every time we drive our asses to the gig
Answer me please? And tell me the truth please? When you go hear a band playing, do you prefer it be played to an exact science or played in a new way?

Greg Allman's a bad ass musician...but so are you bro.
Thats definitely Duane playing the pedal steel licks.
The second intro lick is a bass line, not guitar
Duane is not doing that walk up on a slide
For those interested, skip to 21:00 to hear the minor version.
Guessing you had to mute the Vince Gill version for copyright?
"intro riff" is like this (bass) czcams.com/video/6_8IJU4Wyu4/video.html
Thanks for sharing!
video showing as not available
Try it now - just finished processing
what's the moral of the story? many artist combine major and Minor keys.
It's a harder song than it sounds for sure.
Have you been nabbed by the copyright police? Lots of silence at the end of the video where the third version of the song that you discuss mutes out. Really enjoying your vids though.
29:55 And he composed this just a year or two after the loss of his brother...really strange how you say that. It's almost like you figured it out man. We figured it out..
why would you even play or use that live version as a reference ?
Why not? If he played it like that live, then it's obviously what he liked.
if you listen carefully you can't hear jack shit of the Vince Gill guitar solo.
Hey we’re not on a date, play it already.
Please pick me for the giveaway sir pleaseeeee

Hey Joe was a perfect example, he seemed to use that as a practice song and play all five chords with different shapes in each verse. For an intermediate or advanced beginner, that song was what helped me understand the flexibility of modern music and how much room for interpretation there is and how to play chords in several different ways.
The guy who asked the question about not being able to use barre chords cause his fingers were too short, Check out Hey Joe tab, he played an A chord in at least 3 different ways. Hendrix rarely used bar chords and I hear he had really long fingers.
@@Guitargate Yes, the horns and strings from the Gregg Allman solo version definitely are doing that bass walk, and certainly a guitar part that is played on the original ABB version.
