Damn Marty I have to say im so glad I'm learning guitar from your lessons. My dad recently got in a climbing accident and can't move from his bed and I watched him today for thanksgiving while everyone was gone, he was struggling to fall asleep so I picked up my acoustic an within ten minutes he was out. I'm just showing my appreciation cause the passion of playing can give you so much in return. Thanks dude

Marty, you're so great at what you do. I hope you are still doing this everyday.

Marty, you didn't let me down. As always. The Dead are the soundtrack of my life!

Once again, Martysongsz gives a great lesson. Its also great to see someone who gives as many lessons as you do to teach songs as awesome as this one.

The fact that we have unlimited access to these lessons for free is amazing. Thank you Marty!!

Ahh nothing like a classic Marty lesson. Decided it was time to put this one my repertoire and to see a Marty video there was no question what I was gonna watch to start diggin this one. Reminds me of learning my first tunes🙂

Yes!! Thank you Marty for bringing the magic of this song alive for me. I'm just a beginner but really like how you break everything down and make it happen. I was excited to know that you're a Dead fan as well. I'm a drummer and teach kids music and you are helping me to learn more. Keep up the awesome enthusiasm and great work!

Glorious one old chap,here ,here,.Good dead stuff marty! Love this tune,love jerrys first solo record.Thank you my friend.

Goodness Marty you just became my hero all over again :)! Thank you so much for this. I don't understand how this is the first time I have seen this...Keep spreading the love, joy and healing of music...Def sharing this on FB

More like this please.....i love your GD lessons. You rock!

Amazing lesson thanks so much Marty! I'm a huge deadhead and this was a great tutorial for one of my favorite dead songs

Thank you Marty from France. Great lesson!

Thank you...been playing bass for 47 years and decided to learn a few songs on guitar..this being my FIRST song.Got pretty much all the way through...now to practice practice...arthritis willing....and try my hand at singing once I get there.

Thank you, thank you. I love this song.

You're the best Marty, thanks again....

About working on learning this song, I’m going to search your page, you are one of the first video that would come to you with yours anyway😍👏🏼👍🏼 thanks for being a boss @marty

Marty and the Dead = musical gold. Much love Marty

Great stuff Man! I really enjoy all of your postings.

Finally a bit more advanced acoustic tutorial ! more please !

Lovin' this Marty. Been following the dead for 30 years, just picked up a guitar 2 years ago. I will be following you for the next 30. Awesome song choice. This is a great lick to work on and a beautiful song to play. And a wonderful way to pay tribute to Janice. For your podcasts, in general, I would suggest let them be the venue by which you can mentor us on subjects we can learn or think about when we *don't* have a guitar in our hands. (Seems like that's never for you!)

Happy Thanksgiving Marty, great video love Jerry and The Dead stuff, thanks!!!!

Thanx. I needed that.

Great lesson. Kudos! :-)

great lesson.

THANK YOU MARTY!! I second the "more Dead" comment!

Nice one, Marty - thank you...

i'm curious what would people want in a podcast from me? I've considered it. thx, marty

great Song Thanks!

Awesome Marty. More Jerry

Grateful dead !!!!! Stellar choice, lifelong deadhead & Marty follower, I bought many DVD series from Marty because he's the only one I've found who can break it down very slow. Keep up the good work, karma will reward you

Very cool!

Marty, you're the best teacher on KZfaq!!! But actually I rather watch your lessons because of your funny personality than the teaching :D

Really cool lesson, Marty! Thanks... :)

~MORE GRATEFUL DEAD ,I've learned so much from jerry's style, on acoustic guitar ...and there is plenty of material there ...I have learned some blues licks from your vid's on ,here . Did not know you were into the DEAD, till this week.. Taught I heard some Jerry overtone's in your playing lol .... thanx again 4 your time ..(~);}

that was a good lesson, rock on marty!!!! :-)

Hey marty, i have been really wanted to play the past recedes by john frusciante and you're the only guy on youtube that teaches well ... Thank you if you noticed my comment

Thanks brother

I started played the chords you said and it came out as "Hey Joe". i guess my hands are deciding what to play again...

Yessssssssss... sweet man!!!

more Jerry.... Sweet!

can't live without it, brother, Janis sister.

More easy Dead please!!!!

wooooo! more dead from the one and only marty! thanks a million

videos great, super informative 10/10. One thing I'd change is the hat

Thank you

You can u Tube the Grateful dead play Birdsong live in their accoustic set in Autumn 1980. Jerry gives a lovely smile during his accoustic solo, what a lovely man.....

Jerry never dies

Good Choice!

Thank you.

MORE DEAD!!! YOU ROCK!

i'd love if u covered jerry and trey's styles,like random riffs they do alot and their tones

Yes - That podcast is an excellent idea! How can such a thing happen? Hmmmm??? Marty - Have a podcast PLEEEEAAAAASSSe. I've learned so much from your dvd"s I got (the coaching club) But it would sure be nice to see a concert from our teacher. Something to share and motivate people to play and strive to be good enough to learn to play 1/2 as good as you are - Thank you Gary

Yes some guitar and music theory would be cool to hear you talk about.

Hey marty, im not sure where to put a song request. But you should totally do jerry garcia: off to sea once more!

Here we go!

Hi Marty great lesson (like always) Thanks ! in these accoustic songs could you help us a bit on the placement of the lyrics? like at the end of the lessson, you would play the song slowly and singing on it... thanks again !

Hey Marty, I really dig everything you post and I've learned quite a bit from you. Any chance you could put some licks from grateful dead's "althea"?

Hey Marty, thanks for the ever incredible stuff you have always posted. I am curious what you are recording with. Is it a large diaphragm condenser? Sounds great

Can you teach Macy's Day parade by green day for acoustic i can't get a good tab anywhere but you always find the best/correct way to play it

Hey marty could you please do some Newton faulkner tutorials I'd love it as no one else has done any follow able videos

Oh...and a great choice would be Scarlet Begonias => Fire on the Mountain! Nice lick and some fun with open and barre chords. Thanks Marty!!

Yes more Dead Tunes, PLEASE

Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee more dead songs :)

This had 300 views like 24 hrs ago...Great lesson.

Great lesson! More Dead more JGB Run for the Roses.

Explaining theory/scales would be awesome; Common mistakes; Switching from Acoustic to electric guitar (differences); setups; New artists you've found; style reviews of players; The list goes on :P Rock on Marty.

would it be too much to ask for a `spacy jam` lesson? Thanks!

Marty what model Martin guitar is that? Do you still have? I have a similar one and was wondering what exact model your was in this video as I notice in your newer videos your playing a different axe. awesome videos thx!

would like to see some venture type songs if any one could i think it would be you.

MORE DEAD!!!!!!!

You got me showin off..

bird song...turkey day...I get it!...good choice...

Any chance you are going to do a tutorial on Rosa Lee Mcfall, Deep Elem Blues or Dark Hallow? Hard to find anything on the first two....

fantastic lesson; opening riff: I love it; great explanation of chords and their rhythm; but the "vocal melody" part you never explained! Or at the least you could have slowed it down and repeated it a couple times. Anyway, great lesson. Mil gracias.

PLEASE do cough syrup by young the giant

It would be awesome if you made lesson that showed how you mixed the dorian scale with the pentatonic scale :-)

More dead songs please.

thx

can you teach ball and biscuit by white stripes

can you show us Can't find my way home. thanks

i think you should do a cover with Orto pilot

Marty I thank u once again may the Schwartz be with u

PLEASE MORE DEAD TUNES!!!!!!

and just so we're clear I mean from 0:13 on (starts with an E major chords, goes to C, G, D, A and back to E major. It actually is the same progression I think. Haven't played Hey Joe in a while)

is it me or does the riff kinda sound like that of Hey Joe (in the same way that smells like teen spirit kinda sounds like more than a feeling by Boston)?

a weekly. with one each of: the tip, the song, the scale, the chord and the player of the week.

Can you teach plateau by nirvana next Marty, please
