My mum's been to a concert of them here in Argentina. She says that she put her headphones on her belly so I could hear the Stones when I was in there. 14 years later, I'm still a fan of them.
-
the more I learn the guitar, the more respect I have for Keith. Awesome work, man
-
R.I.P standard tuning
-
This is why the rolling stones is an eternal band. They never get old
-
Unless someone wants to send him a free Telecaster, maybe stop commenting about the guitars he used.
-
People need to appreciate the album Tattoo You more, for the amazing riffs on there.
-
I had to play these night after night in the 60's gigging. You got 'em right on the nose! Really fun songs. Thanks!
-
Waiting on a friend is probably the greatest music video of all time
-
I just saw The Rolling Stones in concert last Saturday in St Louis MO. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards STILL have it in their late seventies. My wife couldn’t believe they were that old - she thinks Mick is hot and Keith is adorable. We’re 25. Anyway, time to buy my first guitar, a squier telecaster.
-
Keith changed his tunings so he didn’t have to change his finger patterns. Ultimate genius at being lazy
-
I reckon you’ve got those pretty much spot-on, mate. Been a Stones fan since I was a kid and you’ve nailed ‘em. Excellent stuff!
-
Let's take the time to appreciate how he absolutely NAILED those tones!
-
You forgot the riff of "Miss You". By far, my favorite song of The Rolling Stones ❤️
-
Keef was, is, and always will be one of the coolest men to walk this planet. You just provided a little snippet of why.
-
Keith’s riffs were so basic, but so musical and unique. His use of different tunings gave way to such a diverse set of grooves, many of which you masterfully demonstrated. Nice job. The Stones Rule!
-
Keith Richards was a simple and yet complex guitarist all in one. Most of his riffs are easy to play for the most part.. however... the style and fluidity he put into those simple riffs is what makes them so hard to learn. Its almost as if he mixed punk rock ( before punk, of course) with blues technique
-
There is so much emotion in those riffs. Nice job!
-
I like it that you included a couple acoustic things. I’ve always thought that Richards’ acoustic work doesn’t get the attention it deserves. Great job on all of it, though. I’ve been a Stones guy since 1964 and know all those tunes backwards and forwards. You nailed them all.
-
Ever hear a riff and say "why didn't I think of that"😂
-
Amazing video, I've always loved the Stones riffs, Jumpin 'Jack Flash is one of my favorites🎼🎸♥️
