The pickups are irrelevant at a certain level of playing. People should spend more time practicing...less time fiddling with gear changes they can't really use.

Good tunes Try using barre chords for Leroy Brown, makes it’s easier to play and you get to work on those barre chords. Start on G, then A7, B7, then C, D, C and back to G. You can use the D7 by moving a couple of fingers and using strings 5-2. You can also move up the neck 1 fret on each beat 4. Watch a live version of Jim on KZfaq.

Hi, I’m a bit barre chord challenged so I mainly play open chords. Is there a particular video or other reference that you could recommend that would show examples of how to play the specific barre chords you suggested? If that’s the better way to play this song I would like to be able to try it. Thank you
@Guitarman195664 күн бұрын
@@Doowopsid sorry, I learned it in a guitar class I took. You can use the E shape barre chord on all of them as you go up the neck. The 7th chords you would lift your ring finger and keep the rest on the strings. Those can be a bit tricky, I still have problems with them. There is a video of Jim Croce playing the song on Midnight Special. You can see he doesn’t seem to play the 7th chords but does play the D7 on the turn around. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eN-JbLqEvbW2aJc.htmlsi=j6MYyGSvmBSFrrFZ

Very nice Barry. Question, on Wicked Games, how are you deciding which chords to add to the 2nd phrasing?
@bcmusic716 күн бұрын
Thank you!... Good question... Couple people have inquired about my capo use, so I am planning a follow up video to explain more... The foundation chords are Bm, A, E .... To play along with those, I know if I put the capo at 2nd fret, an Am chords sounds like a Bm...a G chord will sound like an A chord.... And a D chord will sound like an E chord... Because the capo is up two frets, anything I play sounds two half steps higher...Am=Bm.... Watch for my follow up video explaining this in more detail 🙂... Best wishes🎵

Great work Barry - many thanks. Your video has given me some ideas and inspiration as I build myself up to re-entering the world of Open Mic playing after a longish period away (cue Covid pandemic - the year the world stood still!). I saw another comment that mentioned the idea that it would be good to also provide some details and explanation about the whys and wherefores of your use of the capo in relation to the foundation key of the song. Building on that thought, I wondered if you might consider taking each of these songs and making an individual video for each one so that you can go into the details of capo and chord family and their relationship with the “base line key” of the song. I have a reasonable understanding but it’s far from complete so details based on a specific song in the way you have presented it with the use of a looper (for performance (e.g. Open Mics) use perhaps, as will be the case with me) would,I think, be a great service to your followers and potentially grow your base. I appreciate it’s not a quick thing to produce but it would be so beneficial to many such as myself I feel. Thanks for what you are doing. Keep on rockin’ and loopin’ 😎🎶

Thank you Bluesman for your thoughtful comment... Very much appreciated... You have given me inspiration to make those videos about using a capo...I do know that not everyone is clear on the uses/purposes of the capo, so I would love to help with that.... I'm so happy to hear you're getting back into being out there with your music.... I also like your terms "base line key" and "foundation key", as I think that would make sense to many who aren't as up on music theory.... Thank you for that... Best wishes getting out and showing your talent🎵🎸.... Rock on!

Yeah, I understand this video is about looping. However, instead of saying, i'm putting the capo on 3, and playing these chords. Or, i'm putting the capo on 5, and playing these chords. Why not explain why your putting the capo in that position, and what are the chords your playing?

With all due respect, if you don’t understand the purpose and functionality of a capo, I think a video on looper pedals may be a bit too advanced. Go watch a video on capos rather than complaining that he didn’t cover that aspect in his video which plainly and specifically covers looper pedals.

Any tips on how to make looping work when the chorus and bridge have different chord progressions and or rhythm to the verses. Much more difficult than if just one progression throughout
@bcmusic718 күн бұрын
With that scenario here's what I've done in the past... Some loopers, like the Boss rc3, will let you store an mp3.... I've actually played through a whole song into the rc3, or you can record on a DAW and pull the mp3 into the looper, and store it for playback...I don't think this small Ditto in my video will store other mp3's, but a lot of them do... The Ditto X4 will let you do two loops on the fly, like a verse/chorus.... Or store.....I hope this makes sense...

Thanks Barry. Fun lesson. My looper just arrived about a week or so ago and I haven't had the time to plug it in yet. This is incentive. Back home in East Tennessee in the early to mid-60s, I had a H.S. teacher named Clevenger. Now I've had two teachers named Clevenger. I'll probably pay more attention to you than I did to her though. I'll subscribe too.

So after 30 years of not playing I want to get back into it. Was going to buy an acoustic, like a decent Yamaha, now after watching this maybe I should get an acoustic electric and get a looper pedal. 🤔
@bcmusic719 күн бұрын
Here's my two cents... Yamaha makes great guitars and fine instruments all round.... To me it always made sense to buy an acoustic/electric because it gives me more options... Still sounds beautiful acoustically, but I can plug it in for a gig, or use pedals when I need it to.... I've owned and been happy with Yamaha, Seagull (fine guitars as well), even owned a Sire which punched well above its price... I've had this Martin now for a while, and always thought a Martin would play kinda stuffy? but I love this guitar.... Also still own a Recording King which reminds me of the Martin sound.... Lots of options.... Have fun and much success 🎵🎸

Hello Barrie i m in a similar position as yourself i remember when 30 years ago i first sang songs for my ex wife she said why am i singing in an american accent ? and as Joni Mitchell described with negro affectations ? I was shocked but she was right Rod Stewart sings like Sam Cooke Van Morrison sings like John Lee Hooker Stevie Winwood sings like Ray Charles even eric Clapton plays like Freddie King and as for Zed Lepplin dont get me started We all grown up and admire the the great american song book ie the Gerswins Irving Berlin Cole Porter Carlos Jobim Stevie Wonder Brian Wilson etc Even the Beatles admited and soundef like the Miricles Isley Brothers and Carol King in their early careers but found their own voices and style with the help of George Martin ? There are many indiginous British songs out there which might be suitable for rearection ? And also original ideas which can be develooed ? Music is a great hobby and if we feel for say Indian raga theres no reason we shouldnt explore and study it ! All the early mid 20th Century songwriters had all had some kind of classical background which is why they are great to study and play By the way after 15 happy years we divorced im still playing and occaisonly get paid but even if i didnt i would still continue learning songs and stuff As the great modern guitarist Martin Taylor said we are all in the Laboritory experimenting Bon voyage
