      Justin, how long did it take you to learn that first full riff at the beginning of the song? It would be really useful for me to know that since it is proving a nightmare for me and I can see it taking me weeks if not months to get it right and up to speed. Thanks.

      There seems to be a mistake in the tab in section 4, when going to the E. It sounds and looks as though strings 1 through 4 should be played, not just 2 through 4. But still a great lesson and much appreciated.

    Justin! An interesting piece of trivia for you(or not as the case may be). A relative of mine lives in the cottage in Bath, once owned by Peter Gabriel where he wrote this song. The cottage looks towards Salisbury Hill.

    Justin , THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS AMAZING TUTORIAL !!!!! I've wanted to be capable of playing this song on my 12-string guitar for years. What sets you apart from all other tutorial song videos is your patience to break the song down note for note while playing the notes AND showing the Tab in the little window at the same time. GREAT , GREAT TEACHING !!!!

Haven't quite nailed it yet but well on my way and you're right: so satisfying. I really appreciate your ability to break down the sections and slow it down enough to help me get it while still maintaining the underlying feel of the song. Awesome. Thanks!

    Was on about a two hour trip home last night and not exactly certain why but this song popped into my head and listened to the live version from PG as well as the recorded version and even some covers of it. Within a few minutes I was right back to listening to Justin give his tutorial. lol! Of course I couldnt even watch the video much less practice it.. but I love listening to how Justin lays it out! My moment of venting here.... I used to be so good at finger picking as a kid when I was taking lessons after lessons after lessons.. 43yo now and have had some good strides getting back into playing here and there! .. at any rate.. great video and once again JG has captured my attention yet again! :)

    Justin, you unravel the mysteries of life/music. Then you said Solsbury Hill's in 7/4 a huge light went on for me. That's what keeps the song rolling. Then you explain the 3 - 4 and 4 - 3 counting groups which is the secret sauce. My other revelation came from Grateful Dead's Estimated Prophet, in 7/4, thanks to Michael Palmisano. Now I have another song to practice the 7/4 count. Thank you.

I'm having a tough time with hitting the open high e string (open 6th string) in the intro. I've been playing the 5th string 5th fret with my pinky instead and it seems to work. Yeah, the open 6th string would ring our a little nicer, but I have to practice that knuckle lift a little more. Keep posting! I love your videos!
