I don't typically comment on KZfaq videos, but man this is so well-done. Your clarity on the section of the song you're referring to, and playing with such similarity to how the Dead plays it... just a cray amount of respect bro (your jokes are also hilarious lo)

I took up the guitar in my mid 60's. This is one of my favorite songs. You are a very funny engaging teacher. Thank you so much for showing me how to do this.

this is one of the great eight songs we never got to hear studio versions of as a follow up to fall 1970 american beauty.... all we got were live versions: bertha / wharf rat / brown eyed woman / he's gone / jack straw / mr charlie / ramble on rose / tennessee jed... oh how these could have sounded given fuller studio arrangements as well as added instrumentation like pedal steel horns and strings... thankfully wake of the flood captured those textures...

Davvy- just want to say your the man. I never engage with comments/likes on Yt but always like your videos when I watch. Appreciate your lessons so much

Davy, you crack me up bro! I enjoy all your lessons... not only for the quality instruction and breakdown but for the F-U-N you put in it. Long time Dead Head from the early eighties. Helping me play these songs is like hangin with the boys back in the day. Oh the stories I could tell! Thank you!!! Peace!

'oh shit its that time'...seems to happen to me all the time!

I love how you give a little history of the song. I love it. Fn hilarious dude!

Bro you’re bout funny as shit 😂 thanks for the lesson man much love

I get what your saying about the pinch harmonics but in song like Loser really gets the feel and emotion across espeacially when he missed them.

This is excellent, just discovered this channel.. Man I wish I had KZfaq, and channels like this 30+ years ago !!!!!! thanks for sharing.

Davvy - thanks for helping the people out with all of these videos.

Brightened up my day 🤜✨

Thanks a bunch Davy, this song is a joy to play!

This is my first episode and I am confused. It’s like you know things; nice! Honestly, thanks for the video. I’d figured out the first, “bump-buh-dum-duh-do-boo-buh-do-dunt” last year, but gave up on the rest lol.

I love your channel so much man. Thanks for this.

Love your energy guys...you make learning fun. I could qualm about the chords in the middle of the verse (the walk down over "you know your bound to wind up dead")...I know what you listed is what is generally in the books but I'm pretty sure they used a bunch of sub chords throughout the years on that part and as mentioned earlier sometimes they go to F on the jam for a couple bars and walk up to G but all in all this is the best lesson on this song on KZfaq....you finally explained the lick coming out of the chorus in a way my brain can absorb it! Good stuff boys

Keep on keeping on!

Thanks for your dedication with teaching us Dead tunes.

Best lesson EVER! Please do Jack Straw!

I'm so glad I found your channel. My legit fav channel. Knowledgeable, sarcastic, and funny. And very good at guitar. Thanks for making all of this for us.

Dddaaaaaaavvvvvvvvyyyyyyy....only known of you guys a few weeks but I love your how to's...hope to watch live jam and chills soon...and if you guys are near the jersey shore let's jaAAAaaammmm...bah bah!!!

Simple, clean, fun instruction (aka upitty today). Spent 40-minutes 2-days ago and everything was still there today... I suck and that never happens. So I am going with I didn’t magically become a guitar savant overnight so it must be the instruction and the clear breakdown. I can’t wait to dig into the other songs you have done. REQUEST(s): 1) Unpack WTF Bobby is doing for some of these songs 2) a little deeper dive on the Jam. Think real novice player: scale, shape, position, changes, ideas of when and how to change positions, and maybe a few riffs and where to throw them in. Nothing fancy, just some basic bones. Finally, thank you and to echo the sentiment of @Gavin B, how TF do we pay you?

Superb old boy!

As a self learned Bass Player of 7 years who has no Fen idea what hes doing.. when i start climbing through Tennessees Octaves i get a rush on a different level thats far different than any other Jerry tune.. Definitely helped me to understand the Fretboard and Octaves. When i play to Dead tunes im listening for 90% Jerry, 8% Phil and 2% Rhythms.. probably unusual for a Bassist but it seems to work for me..

This is a great song to pull ou the bag. It’s simple , and an epic narrative by Robert hunter. Writing in Spain while on tour andbon the fly

Awesome dude...love your channel and the Dead lessons 🎸🤘

In the verse line, the bit you say is C C7 Dm7 C is actually C7 Cdim Bb9 C. The bass note is C throughout, the top note descends G, F#, F, E. Similar to the E turnaround in "Loose Lucy", also used in "The Music Never Stopped" (A I think). Used by Dylan a lot, most notably "Rainy Day Women", in the key of F, it's most of the song.

Killing it!!! Great lesson, can't wait to do more

Thanks for helping me with this one Davy! That intro got me good lol

Dood I love your videos. Hilarious, great lessons that are concise and on point. Much love and thanks.

You’re NUTZ! I love it…

I love it! I'm going to check other lessons for some solo breakdowns would be awesome!

Great channel dude, just picked up my guitar after about a decade - thanks for breaking these down!

just found your channel. (started off looking for the intro riff to round and round). this is great, appreciate you guys that take the time to do this. i guess i am done working for the day....

Shout out from Tennessee. Ain’t no place I’d rather be, for reals.

always have great energy ✌🏼

This is fantastic

Awesome! Thank you so much ! always wanted to learn how to play this tune. Great job. Greetings 🖖 from New York !!!

Thanks for another awesome video Davy you the man!! Can you do one for sugar magnolia soon

This is a great lesson, thanks!

0:50 not confused but intrigued. Definitely subscribed!

Its like the cool teacher that knows you be showin up baked as hell to his class. Like, he doesnt saying anything, but you know that he knows that you know that he knows. Ya know?

To cool,thankyou brother A+,now Europe 72 vinyl is spining im loaded doing my thing.

idk bout no other place I'd rather be, but TN is pretty effing gorgeous

Aint no place I'd rather be ! Thanks for the instruction and your comic flow Where are you from? Minnesota here, favorite place I saw Grateful Dead was Ventura California on the beach, Tennessee Jed always a jam :)

Love it

You are great. Is there a tutorial for Bob Weirs part on this song?

Great lesson! Can't wait to get this one down.

solid! been waiting for this tune. Greetings from Colorado:)

I subbed liked & turned on notifications!

That was brilliant thanks 😊

So you play the intro perfect, but you graphic at 6:41 is all messed up… I think the is a 5 on the D string following the 7, then on the A, you are going back and forth from 3-5 but image says 3,3,3. E graphic is messed up too, I think it goes back to A string for a 3-5. Def doesn’t go 5,5,5,5. Non the less, thank you! This helped me a ton!!!!

🌊y Davy this one of my favorite bro 🎸

You are funny. I like you.

There's a solo on Stella Blue (Ok. City - 72 I think) where Jerry does several pinch harmonics in a row to astonishing effect.

First performance: October 19, 1971 at Northrop Auditorium, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Cool vid! I totally identify with the living through your vids projected from your tiny corner thing you got going on there, 😂 (even the wayward dread). I came here searching "jaw harp" and im a relatively young dead head having caught the last few years of tours... Now im thinking to use this vid to work on a version for solo jaw harp... It is an iconic lick maybe it will be recognizable...

As a Tennessee resident I must say I don’t think we even like it here we were dealt a bad hand

2:08 Yo that story is awesome! Im from Spain

Love you dude! Thank you :)

thx davvy

Thank you.

MY DOOD, could you pretty please do st Stephen or jack straw next. Gracias Amigo Love your friggin vids they amazing.

I just found your channel and subscribed. You do a great job on these Dead lessons. I have a request for “He’s Gone” and/or “Brown Eyed Woman” if you get a chance.

Thank you!

Terrapin Station plsss

is he barring his ring finger for the c chord starting on the 3rd fret?

I love how I think I’m a dead head and Davvy shows me a better version of one of my favorites and even shows how to play it. Lol. I will not surrender I’m still a dead head. I just strive to have more BDE but tonight my friends I play they love each other remix thanks to my big brother showing me the way. Ps I wear patchouli do you... still not on to organic soap quite yet. Slam that like and subscribe if you have that BDE if not you need to learn what BDE is first and swing what you got. Toddler arm holding that Granny Smith

Good stuff. Makes my day dude. Thanks. Fuck i wish i could lay down lines like that.

Fucking awesome!

Big Ups Davvy, good lesson. Hoping that Estimated is right a round the corner :-). You did not even plug your band Tennessee's Dead, a bit surprising. Peas'

Did I mention Cassidy???

Love this channel and you are the absolute best! But you have the chords totally wrong in the pre-chorus. They are C ("you know you") Cdim7 ("bound") Dm7 ("to wind up") C ("dead"). Without going through the Cdim chord you will never get the correct sound for this great tune.

Can you share that wallpaper on your PC?

Hey there! How do you tune your amp and your guitar to sound like this? Total newbie here. Having trouble getting the right tone

Hell yeah

🔥

Arent there versions where in the last jam they go to F for two bars, walk up to G for 2 bars and the resolve it to C?

Loving the tutorials man! How about an early 70’s They Love Each Other (faster version) or Mission in the Rain. Looking forward to the next one!

Solid content as always. My only feedback would be that the sound of your voice is a lot quieter than the sound of your guitar. 😅🤘

Wrong chords. "you know that your bound, to wind up dead" C-C7-Dm7-C Play that second chord as C#dim ;)

Hey, Davvy! My granddaughter wants to learn Tennessee Jed. Can you keep the potty mouth on hold for a bit and do a version of this that she can see without her parents trying to kill me? Thanks!

YOu may need singing lesson or two... dozen

ahhh @ 3:10 Jerry in '85

Wow I was too gone for you to hit me with the, “l don’t exist unless until I’m doing these videos.” It’s like a KZfaq superposition. Does Daavy exist without other people observing him? Do I? Is light a particle or a wave? Gah

My bitchy little mouth says Thank You!

Just don’t go near Elizabethton. I hear that place is sketchy af.

Sorry, but you have the chords wrong on the breakdown part, "You know you're bound to wind up dead."

i just want to know whats sticking out of your head
