There is nothing better than to watch the original artist play their song. What a cool experience!

It's even better to play gigs with him. Thanks for commenting!

Utterly brilliant and tragically underrated piece of guitar work. Dude had people convinced he was using an octave pedal for decades, when he was just doing it manually, and all with a slide on his pinky. One of the greatest rock riffs of all time, couched in a silly bit lovable song ❤️ You rock Greg, thanks for doing this video.

What a brilliant piece of guitar work! Thanks to you and Greg for this lesson, it's priceless.

Can’t believe only 112 likes……this is gold. One of my favourite songs! Thanks so much!

This is a fantastic video. Jungle Love was always complex until playing it the proper way in Open A tuning. Amazing!

I knew this song was in an open tuning! The Stones-esque phrasing gives it away. In the Hal Leonard Steve Miller anthology book, the transcriber wrote it out in standard tuning. What a nightmare to try and play it that way. This makes so much more sense and many thanks to Greg for sharing how to play it correctly, especially the fills and those chord voicings on the chorus.

Great interview! Thanks so much for sharing. Open A! Love it! No wonder there was something special about this tune that always eluded me.

This is and take a look at real talent and a creative musical genius.

👍 that was really nice just to hear the guitar parts played like that by you

I was Greg's roadie from 1987 until 1992, those were some fun times. As far as Jungle Love goes listen to the original by Mistress called Paul words and vocals by Brian Kilcourse, drums by Bill Baron, and guitar by Greg Douglass

Fantastic

Got to see Stevie Miller three days in a row open for Grateful Dead in Las Vegas what a show

Saw Mr. Douglas about 50 yrs ago in my hometown of Antioch CA. at the fairgrounds there....He has a band called Mistress back then....Also seen him in Golden Gate park at one of the free shows there....Summer of Love or Woodstock anniversary shows maybe...

You guys know there was a band called Jungle Love as well

Greg Douglass was very productive in 2000 &, unless this channel has changed his mind re wishing him well as I can't find a referral for a recent one, maybe you can find his 2000 Solo cd Teeter if not Former Members (same crowd).

Song was sped up which makes it harder to get proper tuning an sound When ya slow a song down the tuning changes.

Curious what gauge strings he uses to tune up a whole step on a few strings without snapping any strings... Keith is tuning down to G. Much easier. Sounds amazing though!

Brilliant...VanHalen and Greg have similar style.

Awesome - glad to see you were able to have Greg demo it himself. I think it was my video Greg referenced as "the one who got it right" or closest to right. We had a little conversation in the comments about it, super happy he approved. kzread.info/dash/bejne/aZ-cmNqMmrLgpps.html Thanks for having the man show it himself though - super creative and timeless guitar part.

Greg Douglass was the ONLY other Guitarist- credited or not- as a co-lead Guitarist w/Hot Tuna & so for about 6 months until he suggested that Jorma take care of the rhythm guitar work & he takes the Leads. He's still the only Guitar Player who's co-credited on anything w/the original Hot Tuna.

Hello KZread!! What amp is he playing?? His tone is absolutely amazing! Im guessing a vintage Vox Ac15? Thank you!!

The tone is killer and he only mentions the “sqonk” of the guitar pickups in the vid. Sounds like a cocked wah to my ears but it’s not that. Perhaps we can get more insight on the amp and tone settings. 🤔

@srwaite7 It's diffinently reminiscent of the cocked wah thing, but to me, not as intense as a actual parked wah.
