This is a fantastic site you have set up. I have been learning to play Steppin' Out for 50 years since I first heard the Beano album. I really like the care and precision you demonstrate in these lessons. At long last somebody has invested the time and diligence to lay out the fine detail of the anatomy of Clapton's prodigious musicianship. I congratulate you on the extraordinary work you have put in and the results you have achieved.

By the way, this and all the other videos to date (November 1st 2018) have been recorded in Garageband on an Apple Macbook Pro, using an iRig Pro single-input interface. I usually always use the 'Crunch' setting and then, within that, the 'Heartbroken' setting. In that, it pays to play around with the amps and cabs. I have told myself to start taking screenshots of the final mix settings and will try and do this, posting them either on my website mybluesguitar.com and/or Instagram mybluesguitar. There are a few already on the website and I put a screenshot of the Sitting On Top Of The World settings (from the take that appears first in the videos) on Instagram yesterday.

@@dougboblas That's a nice rig you've got. My residential circumstances do not really permit using a real amp, but Garageband is great, and only lacks in a very few areas. And one of the beauties of it is that you can record the guitar with a workable 'ok' sound then play around with the settings afterwards to get closer to what you need.

These lessons are an absolute labour of love for an album that changed the sound of electric guitar back in 1966. It's hard to overstate the impact it had on me and thousands of others. I was just too young to see the EC Bluesbreakers live but I can still remember my jaw dropping on hearing the sheer power and consummate artistry in the playing, especially on things like Have You Heard. Anyone who doubts Clapton's position in the pantheon of guitar greats should listen to this album. Thanks , Mark, for sharing this and all the other great pieces from Beano. Great playing as ever.
@mybluesguitar6 жыл бұрын
I can't imagine what it must have been like putting the Beano album on the turntable for the first time back in 1966. There was a ton of great music around, but the guitar had never sounded like this. Whilst I grew up with the music of the '60s, I was a child at the time and it was not until the mid '70s that I first got my copy. What a revelation! I honestly believe that Eric's playing in those days will never be equalled, let alone surpassed. I am delighted to see that so many fellow players share my love for this music!

By far the best lesson on this Clapton classic. I'm knocking on a bit now (71) so I don't absorb things so quickly. for anyone else with the same problem watch this lesson over and over and play with the teacher. Get an app like Riff Station or Song Surgeon (the latter being the better of the two IMHO) slow it down to say 75% and play with E.C. You'll be surprised at how much you've already grasped here. Isolate any tricky bits and go back to these lessons. The times I've tried to master this over the years but time, Kids, work just got in the way. I got somewhere in the ball park but never near enough. These lessons are as good as you'll find anywhere. Trust me I've looked. You can also tell this by some of the comments on accuracy, they really are looking at the minutiae, which I'm not knocking at all, it's how we all move forward. But if there were any glaring errors you'd know about it big time by now. So thank you, Thank You THANK YOU for your time and effort and amazing skill both in accuracy and being able to pass it on so clearly.

Terry, I've just (November 1st) found your comment from 4 months ago. That's a great suggestion to get a slow-down app. I'm sure that back in the day you did what I did...slow a 33 1/3rpm album down to (what was it?) 16 2/3rpm on a turntable, then transpose the subsequently lowered-pitch notes back to the proper key. What a job that was! Modern software is amazingly helpful for the guitarist. Thanks so much for your feedback. All good wishes, Mark

Wow...I am 71 also. This fellow does great tuorial covers. I'd think any dedicated informed player can hear this immediately.....The best I've heard for Clapton, who's work on guitar has been a huge influence on me. I use Transcribe a lot to loop and identify, but 99% is my ears and strong desire to get as good as I can before I croak. I have Dupytrens Contracture in my left hand (neck hand) which is affecting me but I still have compensatory work arounds. A bigger issue is....I'm just not as sharp and fast as I used to be, (EC himself has mentioned this sort of thing in interviews) damn memory issues, normal aging stuff I suppose, but, I feel much more motivated then ever. If I felt this way as a teenager there's no telling how advanced I'd be today. We have our work cut out for us, right? Once you've heard certain things,when it really gets into you, there's just no going back.....Stuff we heard 50 yeras ago, it's still inside us....that's power isn't it? C'est la vie etc. etc.

First off, Thanks! I've been studying EC for years and have learned a lot with help like this, but I was at it way before the internet. I haven't heard this one in decades and I revisited it tonight and his brilliance was really clear on this early Mayall album. This cover is miles ahead of some others on the tube. Clear, consise, accurate, to the point, and extremely useful. I mainly use my ears and then some software but I always look for good tutorials and here you are! Also, and I haven't started to work with this one yet, and I could be very wrong, but it looks like you do not use your little finger much, if at all, on solo lines. and either does he. Chords are another matter. This detail encourages me because now I have a case of Dupytrens Contracture in my little finger (it has effects similar to arthritis and is bad news for musicians) Sometimes I think about Django Reinhardt and Les Paul and how devastating hand/arm injuries just made them better.....and I'm nowhere near that messed up. When you get something RIGHT and it sounds great it's one of the greatest things.

Hi Dave, apologies for my miserably late reply. I let comments build up then sit down with a mug of tea and answer a bunch in one fell swoop! So glad to hear you found the video useful. Eric is a classic three-finger player, much more so than the other Gods I feature on the channel, like Page and Mick Taylor who both can be seen using their little fingers often. But Eric..virtually always just the three! I'm sorry to hear of your problem with your own little finger, but like you say...think Eric, Django etc! Thanks again and good luck with your playing :-)

@@mybluesguitar It appears Page has a double jointed first finger. Today I mastered your first lesson on Hideaway. After I got it I played along with the EC/Mayall track. I use an old Fender Twin and a Marshal Bluesbreaker OD with a seperate pre-amp boost that gives me close to his exact tone at low volumes. I rewired two Lollar Imperial Humbuckers for series/parallel so I can simulate a Mayall/Peter Green sound, or damn close, but I pretty much stay away from reverb unless I'm doing "The Supernatural." I'll try and go through 2 lessons a day this week. EC is my "go-to guitarist." (And at the moment you are too) The only Mick Taylor stuff I've absorbed are those beautiful elastic singing phrases from "Hide Your Love" on "Goat's Head Soup." Re: Page I mainly have grabbed his acoustic stuff, like the ancient Your Time is Gonna Come or on Ramble On..... I get lots from the 3 Kings, lately back to Freddie. Hendrix i don't even deal with too much...He's too astonishing...I just sit back and appreciate it; He died on my birthday when I was 18...not a good present. I'd think Wes Montgomery influenced him some; His Octaves with Band of Gypsies at the Fillmore. I'm babbling...I drive some of my friends nuts. I'm getting old and before I croak I owe it to myself to participate in the genius of guys like EC, and actually guys like that are one per planet. Working on that great little signature phrase at seconds 16 to 21, getting that timing "under my fingers"....I can then really appreciate the brilliance of it....and he's conributed so much to the lexicon that there are likely thousands of players who don't even know who has informed their playing. Anyhow, again, your help is much appreciated! D.

@@mybluesguitarNo problem, your doing me a great favor with this material. I mastered lesson one today. I'll try and do two per day this week. Once I got it I played along with the Mayall track. That great signature phrase he does around seconds 12-21 on the Mayall track....getting the timing down I become a participant in the inherent brilliance of it. The only Mick Taylor I know are those beautiful elastic singing phrases on his 3 solos on Hide Your Love from Goat's Head Soup. I use a little bit of compression and reverb there. Clapton has been a "go-to" player for me for a very long time. (And at the moment you are too...) I have a lot of influences. Lately I transposed the terrific Jr. Walker Sax solos on Cleo's Mood/Cleo's Back here on YT. If you haven't heard those I strongly recommend them. One tone it took me a long time to get was making my guitar sound like a saxophone with a slight case of laryngitis. For EC of 1966 I use an old Fender Twin, a Marshall Bluesbreaker OD and a seperate preamp, and two humbuckers wired for series/parallel. In general I try and get the exact tone and architecture and feeling from material, and if/when I do, then I've sort of 'earned the right to improvise.....I'll take all the luck I can get, but I find it's a ton of hard work that gets me results. I'm not a DNA lottery winner like EC....(In his case it's one per planet) but then, I'd bet he worked his ass off , probably with more dedication then a lot of people. "Use it or lose it" I guess. One thing I've noticed that he has continually used across the stylistic evolution of his career is the way he mixes sweet/seventh ....major/minor often within the same phrase. It gives many of his phrases a very sweet "aftertaste", a synesthesia. His best playing is full of Joy. I hear the exhuberance in this Freddie King cover. (And I'm way into the 3 Kings, especially Albert) That's just the soul of the guy. And how he's laced that joy through fantastic architecture and great technical muscianship is why he's EC. Anyway...Thanks again for your very timely help. D.

Hi Nico, Thanks for your questions! I currently have three amps: a reissue Marshall JTM45 head (the 30w one), an Orange Tiny Terror (with the matching 1x12 cab) and the little Amplifi unit from Line6. But I don't use any of those for the videos. For these I plug straight into my Apple laptop using an iRig. I then go into Garageband. I have been asked a few times about how I make the videos and I will shortly be making a video going into that. It took me (literally) years to figure out how to do it, because most (if not all) of the 'how to make guitar videos' on KZfaq that I found assumed degrees of understanding, which I just didn't have. I would really like to make a really simple, step-by-step guide to save fellow guitarists the hassle that I went through myself. In the meantime, here is a link to a page on my website, where I include a screenshot of the settings I used on at least one of these Hideaway videos. In conjunction with the settings, the guitar was usually on the bridge pickup, with the tone right down, between 2 and 4 and the volume usually between 5 and 7. For the videos with the Firebird I use different settings. Anyway, the Hideaway settings... mybluesguitar.com/amp-settings-for-recording-hideaway/
