*This* is the way structure a tutorial. Play first and talk after. And the talking was relevant...Many thanks also for not running through the open G tuning procedure 👍👍👍

After many years of playing guitar, I'm starting to play around with slide. So fun and this song is pretty easy and jams so well. Thx for the lesson

Always loved this version. I didn't realize how accessible it was for beginning slide players. Great, thanks!

Makes me feel I am in a roadhouse bar on a Saturday night 🎉

It's as if George Thorogood plugged into George Lynch's rig.

James Sir! Thank you so much!!! I've looked at a few of your video's and you're a bad Oscar to say the least. I appreciate that you took the time and effort to bring this to us all!!!!

I just went down a George Thorogood rabbit hole, and it all circled back to James James! Once again, well done sir! Who doesn't LOVE some 3 Chord George, especially when you're right down the road from Wilimington, DE!?!?

Brilliant again James. Thank you.

Dude... you know so much stuff. I learn so much from you. thanks! Awesome!

That was awesome JJ... you make it look so easy. Bravo.

Thanks for all the tunes..Thanks for that insight on how George plays slide as opposed to Duane playing it..this helped me tremendously on my slide playing.

Just wanted to say I really enjoy your channel and thanks for all the great guitar content! The lessons are great and it's nice to be able to see someone play the song when trying to figure it out. Cheers!

Great job!! That was a huge help!!!!

That was awesome James! always been a fan of George's slide playing ever since I seen him back in the 80's. Thanks for explaining, just starting to get into slide guitar, been trying to figure out Traveling Riverside Blues .. haven't been too successful lol.. I think I'll try George.. Thanks James

Woo hoo good stuff, thanks man! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

you nailed it, man!

I heard this on the radio today!!

LOVE OPEN G LOVE THE SLIDE

Good stuff, man. You just made the world a little bit better.

Thank you

Awesome!

Awesome man

hey James James, this tutorial was perfect for me, I'm sort of a beginner at slide and I love it. now i can jam to this, thanks

Hey James, you're former privettricker, right? You pretty much teached me how to play alternate tuning rock'n'roll several years ago! Good to see you're still on your game! Keep rocking :)

This great!

Thanks that helps me a lot.

That’s really good thanks will give it a shot on the De Angelico today 👍🏾🎸

excellent

Badass!!

great job

KILLER!!!!!

Nice.

❤❤❤❤

Thanks man, cool explanation

There are certain tunes you play that sound as if you've done them 1,000 times. This is one of them. Just great. The explanation of Duane's way vs Lonesome George's style is much appreciated. It would be interesting to hear how, for example, you'd do Joe Walsh or Don Felder doing a Thorogood tune and/or vice versa. Second season starts on Wednesday. There is so much parity in the NHL (in a good way IMO), I don't think there is any clear cut favorite for the Cup. Each fan (of a playoff team) has a reasonable chance to argue why their team could hoist the Cup. Should be quite entertaining into June.

You must be psychic. On Saturday I tried both slide and open g tuning for the first time. Thanks for these!

Trying to learn by watching this video. Best way to get better playing by ear and the video is a cheat sheet 😋🍦licks thank you again @jamesjames

Great video for me to learn something! I know nothing about slide guitar, but my bandmates dropped this song on me to learn. Can you confirm the tuning that you’re using? I think your first string is in open D, and your fifth string is in open G. Is that correct? Is there any other strings that are detuned or tuned differently? Is this standard slide guitar tuning?Thanks!

....and thank you for NOT using a Strat!!!!

Thanks James, always learn something from you! The version you did on your old channel gave me the confidence to try this song, and was also great. Which sound do you prefer the Gretsch or the Gibson?

Hey James! Any chance a lesson on Bad to the Bone?

Another great one J J, How many videos does this one make?

You play this so well, does the metal slide have any advantages over a glass slide? Or if you can use one, you can use the other? Thank you.

Hey JJ, Does the Vypyr 100 is a good bed room/ practice amp? Or is too loud?(sorry if there is any mistakes)

If I wanted to play this in E, would I still use Open G and just use different frets to chord (9, 2+4 for E, A +B) or should I try open E instead? Thanks!

You did another video of move it on over with a different guitar with f holes and single cutaway. What guitar is it? I really like it. You and I have the same approach to music. I don't know scales, can't read music, know the principle behind tab but have never tried to learn that way. I learn by watching and listening. I'm 58 and have played on and off over 35 years. You keep doing your thing. I love it. Oh by the way, I love your videos using slide a lot. Keep up the good work.

Does Jack White play slide sort of in the Thorogood mode, all over the fret board?

Hi JJ. Another great video. Slightly of the current topic, but do you have any impressions or thoughts on the late Jeff Buckley and his music?

Yo James, You began this lesson with, "hello all, got another tune for ya in open (left hand slide from about 10 to 2) , & didn't catch the key (for the left hand slide:) I'm guessing E, am I right? Thanks for your time & lessons, been following you since early PT

I play along in regular open A tuning and it comes off a bit Van Halen but still good , open E looks a bit more labourious but terrific dude.

George never uses a pick , but has two other guitar players', and bass on top of that

thanks jj. starts tomorrow, who do you have your money on for lord Stanley's mug?

What tuning are you using?

Dude that’s awesome but can you break it down slowly please

hey jj!

I'm trying to come up with the right compliment but the only words that come to mind are, "DUUUDE!" and "DAAAY-UUMM!"

If you can conjure a devil with dirty guitar chords this song might do it ?

Big difference between Duane Alman and Most slide players With the exception of Derick Trucks. And Page might have Used slide in the Same positions as George but he was Way more creative ! It's like the way people Use pentatonic scales. Everyone kicks it around In so many different ways . Some create magic with Them. And some use them And bore you to death With them.

Does your name pronounce like James Bond or James Rodriguez (with "H") ?

Open G OK , I'll work on that , looks more fun than open A for sure thanks ! , .

do you have a patreon page, I'd love to support you

Tuned in open E?

Did you say open D or E

Excellent! I wonder how it would sound on an acoustic guitar? I know. Not that great.

Hank Williams did it better. He version of the song is the best.
