Learn how to play I Won't Stand in your Way as performed by the Stray Cats. We'll run through the chords to provide the song foundation, then tackle the guitar solo. Beautiful 50's era ballad written and released in 1983 on the Rant 'n Rave LP.
Was recorded in early 2020 as a virtual lesson for my brother Tom, and looks like I had decided to "eat my feelings" for a couple months during early pandemic :-) . I decided to re-release this on my new 12 foot chain channel here. Hope you enjoy.
Here's a link to the MTV video for the song from 1983 • Stray Cats- I Won't St...

What a great ear you have. Cant wait to check the tabs
Not seeing any tabs on patreon. Did you not publish them?
I almost got it!!! I play a very simplistic version, but I appreciate a lot your contribution....thanks so much...one of the greatest compositions ever
Really appreciate this lesson. Nicely done. Thank you.
Wow dude. Awesome lesson and tribute to one of the most beautiful guitar pieces ever. You are an amazing player yourself btw! Thank you for this!! Rock on .. 🎸🔥
Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for watching
Thank you for working this out. The version I was playing was more simple. I think the chord at the end is an E69.
Thanks very much for the lesson. VERY helpful!
(And fwiw, you look younger and healthier now than when you recorded the solo. Good job!)
Can't wait till you do lonely summer nights your rendition.
Love it, thanks!
Awesome lesson
Someone teaching a tune who knows chords: HALLELUJAH! 😹 I started listening to the Stray Cats in '81, when their first single in the US was released.
You have a beautiful voice!
Your playing is also beautiful. That guitar...I can see why you miss it. I traded an early '60s Gibson ES125TC that had been fitted with a Bigsby by the original owner (Eric Clapton owned it at one point, according to the serial number)... that was basically a piece of plywood meant to be a beginner's guitar, but mine was an anomaly. I got it for only $200 30 years ago, and it had the straightest neck of any guitar I've had, tied with my '85 Les Paul. And it sounded incredible plugged right into the amp on tunes like this.
I regret trading that guitar for an $1800 drum set with cymbals and stands, etc... but I needed the set to record with.
But YOUR guitar...
My goodness.
I'm glad it's in good hands.
That's good to know.
I really enjoy your playing.
I photographed Brian 3 times and interviewed him once. One time I photographed him not long after his Hot Licks VHS came out. His manager forgot to tell him he was meant to go to the studio and record that I think it was on a Saturday morning... Brian was out at the Limelight all night. Hahaha! You can kind of tell from his hair. But dang, he knocked those lessons out of the park!
Well, I started playing in '77 at age 7, and then couldn't play for the past 13 years at all due to a spine injury. I played a little bit today. It's funny, I wasnt playing a Stray Cats tune, but was using meant of the chord voicings you used.
Playing guitar is such a gift.
Thank you for sharing your gift with us all.
And don't be afraid to sinc it loudly!
Cheers!
Wow, thanks for the note! That's incredible that you got to interview him, I'm jealous. I bought that vhs back in the 90s and watched it a ton. I remember he had two tube screamers hecwould kick one on foe lead and then the 2nd one for extra. Loved those
@@12footchain Yeah! I had an original '70s Tube Screamer and cannot find it at my parent's house! 🤷🏻♀️
I apologize for that extra LONG comment above; lack of brevity since the spinal injury.
But I really love your playing and your voice!!
Cheers!
I don't think they tuned down to Eflat. Try 432 tunning.
