Keith plays JJF in July at Hyde Park in open G so it wasn’t long after it’s conception he changed the song from D to G tuning, someone presumably smarter than me suggested it may have been because it’s easier to have one open tuning, that would be G, rather than G and D possibly causing confusion on a live stage.

Thank you for a great demo lesson 👍

Best explanation of this song. Thanks

Another great demo/ lesson! Thanks so much for this Gary, another great one to learn. 👌🏻🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

Well done. I learnt the song this way some time ago from a Michael Casswell DVD. So many miss the 2 droning E flat strings in the middle of the chord which are important to get the sound. Michael was such a great teacher sadly no longer with us.

I play a lot of slide guitar and your lesson here sounds correct in Open E or Open E Flat. It’s important to play the song though as it feels right or sounds right to the player. I use very low action guitars for my slide guitar and don’t get fret rattle, it’s all about consistent practice and really enjoying what songs you learn. Thanks very much! This is a great lesson and I just subscribed. You’ve given me a great amount of guidance here to make it my own. I’ll learn learn your version with my slide and add it to my other Open E songs: Just Got Paid “ZZ Top” and Slow Ride “Foghat” I have another guitar set up in a modified Open F for When The Levee Breaks “Led Zeppelin” and a slide version of Iron Man “Black Sabbath”

Keef's main riff was played on an acoustic. It's key to sounding like the song.
-
Open D with a capo at the first works well.
-
Was Keith playing a telecaster on the song?
-
I thought Keith played that in open g tuning ?
