That riff made this song a hit. When I was a young guitarist back in the 70s and I heard this I thought how cool, but didn’t tell anyone I thought it was cool because it was the disco era and I didn’t want to get teased but I think a lot of guitarists secretly wished it was them playing this.
So true lol! Thanks for watching Bill!

And you haven't mentioned the bass along with this. Mind blowing. Edwards and Rodgers were a dynamic duo.
Awesome tutorial
Thanks man
I like the way you instruct in a calm, reassuring manner with lots of encouragement. Too many teachers talk AT, rather than TO, the student. Plus, you know your material. Good job, Eric. 👍🏻

Exactly what i thought
Nile Rodgers of the disco Group Chic is an amazing musician and composer. I have heard and enjoyed his disco guitar and compositions for many years but without thinking deeply about the technique and style but today I found this tutorial with excellent explanation and it really made me appreciate Nile Rodgers' genius even more.
Awesome! I was in a band back in the 70's and 80's and if you could not play Nile's stuff at a dance gig, you were toast, so I had to learn it! Thanks so much for watching my friend! MORE from EricBlackmonGuitar Tutorials czcams.com/play/PLHdKL0zeGNk7sfTEIEr2yVXgGk3WH7T9d.html

How people came up with this instrument and till this day you can make so many kind of music with it, people take such stuff too much for granted, it's almost like a miracle for me.
You are right Adriano! It is amazing to me too! Thanks so much for watching!

Brilliant lesson, thank you so much. This is THE rhythm riff and the one that just makes people smile. I always struggled to get those quick chords in at the end of the main lick, and this video finally showed me how. It was the rhythm I couldn't get right.

That quote in the beginning is good for, well, beginners. Nile is frequently on record as disagreeing with it for his playing tho; he always tries to change it up a bit, so riffs are not exactly the same.
And I have heard him say it. However on his records his riffs repeat with very subtle variations. Thanks so much for watching!

This is basically the first song I’m learning on the guitar and it might not be the ideal first song but I’m a bassist and some things are pretty similar between playing the guitar and playing the bass so it doesn’t really feel strange playing this. I’ll always prefer playing the bass over any other instrument but I really wanna be able to play funky R&B soul songs like this one because it’s my favourite genre and I just think it sounds so cool. it’s also this type of music I wanna produce in the future after music senior high school, and guitar and bass play a big roll in this type of music so it feels important to know how to play both. I also saw Nile Rodgers and CHIC live and I spoke to both Nile himself and the bassist and they’ve inspired me so much to keep fighting for my dream to become a musician, especially because they both started playing their instrument in my age. Thank you for this video! It’s very helpful :)

Brilliant concise and clear, are you aware that your guitar neck is not seated in the pocket correctly just saying easy fix just loosen screws and realign so the dots are in the centre of the d and g strings and then tighten the screws, thanks for great tutorial.
Thanks for that my friend. I tried to straighten it, but the acrylic body is way different than wood. It plays great so I decide to leave it alone rather than ruin it. Besides, I have 12 Strats, so I can afford to leave this one the way it is. Thanks again for the concern. More to come!
Thanks! Gotta play this Saturday and you saved me hours! Great lesson!
You are welcome Eric! Knock em' dead this weekend!

FINALLY! Someone shows in great detail how to play this song in Nile's style. I've been playing guitar most of my life, played lots of rock, etc., but now I want to learn how to play funk rhythms (involving lots of right hand technique,, left hand muting, etc. This has eluded me over the years). Now you show in a very clear manner how to approach this technique. Many thanks to you! Subscribed...

Dude you are awesome. Nile Rogers is NOT easy! He is a genius of funk guitar!
Couldn't agree more! He is the strumming genius that everyone knows about! Back in the 70's when I was in a band, if you could not play like this you couldn't get a job lol!
@@EricBlackmonGuitar He wrote/performed for other people also. I saw him on TV showing some stuff. Don't remember the show.
He sure makes it look like it's just a simple little rythym,,, until you go try to play it.
The timing just has to be perfect.
@@EricBlackmonGuitar Looks to me like you were a wanted man Eric !! You play this perfectly and effortlessly.
@@electricrockguitar No doubt !! That cat is super smooth yet seems to be so down to earth during interviews.
Eric! Excellent lesson! Nile Rodgers is one of the masters of funk guitar and one of my favorite guitarists! So, I'm very happy to see you make a fantastic tutorial for this song; I thoroughly enjoyed it! I'll be sure to check out your other Nile Rodgers video lessons, as well!

I keep coming to your lesson once and again. I almost have the rythm in my hands. Amazing explanation and even better playing. Just looking at your hands gives a perfect example of what is needed to play along the full song. I usually play Good Times and Le Freak in a row and my right elbow ends up almost wasted. That tells me I have a lot of room for improvement in the movement of my wrist. Anyway, thanks again fron the bottom of my heart. You have one big fan in Spain!!! .
Hi Felipe! Use a thin pick to cut down on the resistance, and keep the pick travel tight in short strokes to give your elbow a rest. I will consider doing a tutorial on this in the future to help my viewers with this. Thanks for watching my friend!

@@EricBlackmonGuitar The thin pick approach makes a lot of difference. I was kind of obsessed with sticking to my medium pick but I had to surrender...Thinner is funkier!!! Thanks again!!!
@@felipelotas5609 Can I toss in my thoughts (been playing 40+ years)...I use a heavy pick but what's called Jazz shape (Dunlop Tortex). They are smaller than standard and you can get it in your fingers so just the tip is exposed. 2nd idea is to play without a pick.Hold your hand like you have a pick in it but use the front edge of your index fingernail to "brush" the strings. This is really effective for me, it's not as "loud" as using the pick but really conects you with the feel of a song. And the rhythm is in your wrist, the less elbow movement the better. That's it...enjoy yourself.

@@EricBlackmonGuitar Thank you Eric!! ✌️😙
Great breakdown of the song Eric, thanks. When I kick this one around the block I have a hard time not going back and forth between it and "Rock Steady". I'm certain Nile had more than a passing knowledge of that song. A friend of mine called the right hand rhythm approach "the churn" because you never stop moving. I also believe Tommy Bolin's song (Recorded with Deep Purple) "Gettin' Tighter" and Bad Co's "Rock Steady" also work out of the same territory as Aretha's song.
Different musicians have different names for that strumming style. I just call it funk strumming. Thanks so much for watching Tom!

Thanks for the encouragement that strumming takes time to master and to keep at it. For me keeping my hand moving properly during missed strokes is the hardest.
Hi Marcus! Don't forget that pros had the same problems with strumming as you are having in the beginning, but after performing for hours on end in front of people it eventually becomes second nature for them. Just hang in there man!
@@EricBlackmonGuitar Thanks, Eric. Every day it gets a little easier and I'm amazed that I'm improving so fast.
Eric, Thanks so much !! Great tutorial helped me a lot !

Wow, great lesson, thank you very much!!! I really like your guitar but I noticed that the neck isn’t in line properly. You can see it by the position markers, they are not in the center of the D and G string. Also the low E string isn’t above the pole of the neck-pickup. Quite easy to fix and I think it will improve your sound and intonation.
I will check into that, but I like it the way it is lol! Thanks so much for watching!

Well. I have been fooling around with learning guitar for around 40 years now. And seeing only moderate progress I think. I notice you have big mitts and long fingers. So I am going to view that as an inspiration to keep on keeping on. Great video. Cheers. And thank you for the rhythm.

@@EricBlackmonGuitar I said the same thing about your hands ! You were like ahh alot of my students have bigger hands.
You must teach many NBA cats ! You have some huge hands Mr Blackmon ! Appreciate the lesson. Seems so easy watching you but it definitely takes practice. At least for this mediocre player. Nile is one mean guitarist. He proves how important rythym is !! A good bass player and Nile got this down.
Keep the soul and funk coming! What great lessons!

Thanks so much, Mr. Eric! Could you teach some Ray Parker,Jr. songs maybe? I saw him on you tube with Tim Pierce & his playing style reminded me of yours; loose as a goose, but still in the pocket, no matter what you're playing. Would love to see you do that. Love this lesson; you explain things & demonstrate them clearly, without loitering or rushing. It's *_always_* appreciated!!!

it took me from 1989 to 2000 to figure this stuff out naturally ...I use a heavy pic all wrist ....I learned this style in Chicago from Curtis manifolded band members ........you can play the hidden notes of song cissy strut ....also jb war Motown ..Parliament funkadelic ....and it could take you a decade to understand it ...most importantly it get you gigs as a gun for hire !!!
Back when I was in a band in the 70's, there was no figuring this out. This is the stuff we played EVERY DAY. When the song came out, we learned and played it on gigs right away. I was blown away when I found out that people think this stuff is hard to play. That is why I share these videos.

This is your next video I see, after another amazing tutorial 'Cissy strut', and it's obvious you just didn't learn the staff to drop it on CZcams as other tutto men, you've got the vibe.
I'll definitely suscribe

Hey I just want to say thanks for the tutorial, im still recovering from my wrist injury but as soon as I get back to playing I’ll be learning this first!
I did see that you put your pinky on the high e string, is that to mute the e string when playing the major triad?
Sometimes it is not touching the string, but just looks like it. Check the tabs to see if it is being used or not. Thanks so much for watching! Please save this link to my channel to check for new videos! czcams.com/users/EricBlackmonGuitarvideos
