Yes he is fantastic. I would also recommend Adrian on Anyonecanplayguitar. He’s good too. Does some more eclectic stuff. He’s English so does a lot of British stuff from the 80 and 90s.

Great tutorial but missed the down tuning and almost gave frustrated up. This might explain some thumbs down. The tutorial is not really beginner friendly but hey, it's even sweeter once you figure it out by yourself.

Probably 28 other instructors on KZread with videos that teach it wrong.

So if, like me, you're struggling with the Robert Fripp riff that gets put through Brian Eno's e-bow synthesiser thing (1977 vintage) to get that Heroes sound, just look at a couple of the live videos where a violin is used to get a very similar sound. And don't beat yourself up! Better players than you and me can't do it... so thanks to Shut Up & Play for giving us at least the right notes to play. Awesome song; awesome tutorial. Thank you.

Cool. Thanks for the link to the Sound On Sound article. Bowie , Brian Eno and Robert Fripp were an extraordinary team. I went to the "Heroes" tour concert in 1978 , where Adrian Belew and Carlos Alomar were the guitarists. I went to the "Serious Moonlight" concert in 1983, where Earl Slick and Carlos Alomar were the guitarists. Heroes...what a song live...Strong positive vibe.

Saw the Heroes tour, awesome experience.

This is the best tutorial of "Heroes" on the net! There are many different live versions by Bowie in concert; but the best seems to be "David Bowie (A Reality Tour)". While Fripp used raw feedback to do the sustained note (one reason he is seen with headphones in concert) the lead guitar on "A Reality Tour" is using an 'EBow'. Another concert video shows the sustained note done on an electric violin, but I think the guitar version has more soul!

Great lesson Shutup. I loved Fripp's collaborations with Bowie. Fripp's stylings are very evident in this song and probably even more so throughout the Scary Monsters album. As for Carlos Alomar, he certainly had that certain je ne sais quoi that helped define Bowie's recordings.

Which chorus riff do you mean?

Did not know that, I always assumed it was Fripp. Definitely one of the trademarks of this masterpiece

I've seen Ronson use the Ebow for those killer sustaining single note runs. This is an extremely emotional song for me. It's just perfect. It makes me weep when I hear it.

How can anybody give this a thumbs down? You are certainly one of the best teachers out there. Thanks for generously giving your time to produce your excellent tutorials. THIS is what makes KZread great.

This guy is a genius, he’s give me loads of help over the year’s. I would like to say a big thanks 🙏🏻

The drop 'D' on the bass/guitar line is a master-stroke. Never would have picked that. Great video.

I gotta say this lesson is excellent! I just finished recording a country-blues cover of this tune and this lesson was so helpful and inspirational. Keep up the awesome work!

This guy is the best guitar teacher on the internet that I have seen. Always way accurate and detailed. If I had money I would send some.

This is the best lesson bar none for this song. Well done and thanks.

Just Brilliant! I found this really enjoyable to learn and I feel like I am now a Hero just playing it!. Thankyou.

This piano-like guitar part is awesome! Congrats, and thank you for sharing.

I appreciate your accuracy….also, they move along just perfect with where I’m at on guitar…..without tedious info! 😊

Been larning how to play acoustic for months and I'm getting pretty good. Afterwards I'm gonna learn electric and first lesson ima take is this one!

Wow, excellent break down. My band happens to be working on this song next in our set list... Thanks for your work here, I know it takes a lot of time and thought to put these together. Great job! All the best, much appreciated!

Haven't even got to the lesson part yet and I'm subscribing. The fact that you play the song correctly is enough.

The "synth" part at 11:00 is really Robert Fripp's guitar treated. Yes, there are very inventive things going on within this song. It's a collective effort with the cream of the cream involved. Just the reverb/mic technique of the vocals by T. Visconti is amazing, specially since he invented that technique on the fly 'cause they run out of tracks leaving just one for the lead vocal. Something unthinkable these days.

Always insightful and creative with other instrument and double-tracking parts...I never fail to see and learn something new which helps develop my own playing style. Excellent! Thank you

I love that tune and you broke it down and expressed your attachment to it also which came across which is a great teacher and of course a great player also. Thanks Bro!!!!

one of my fave bowie songs. thank you!!

Only recently saw your videos but I have to say yours are the best, not that I learn songs much anymore but the fact that you play along with the record is super helpful, great stuff man....

Thanks a lot for this tutorial. I love both Alomar and Fripp guitar parts they stick together like a dream... Along with the rest of the instruments, down to the tambourine.

Great Lesson, just remember this from seeing it a while ago and re visited to incorporate into an acoustic version. Well done and great mention on the Sound on Sound article, great read so thanks for that tidbit as well. You're a great instructor!

your playing and this song perfectly illustrates why I love playing guitar.

you always do such a great job,please don't stop. you are the best.. thanks so much

Thank you. You have such a good touch foe both teaching guitar. Your keyboard ideas is brilliant. I adds so much to what a guitar band can do!

fantastic lesson sir, thank you. One of my all time favorite songs.And thank you for the link to the article on the making of the song. I really enjoyed that and sent to my musician friends.

All parts of this song are so lovely going to start learning it now always loved it

I always thought the lead was so haunting. It always got to me. Fantastic lesson on a great song!

Really great lesson of the correct way to play this classic Bowie track. Thanx so much !! With wishes. Rx

first class lesson braking down a truly first class song. Thank you.

Credit where It's due - You are a very good teacher and excellent guitarist - 10/10

Great Instructional. I always like your instructional videos, but wanted to shout out a thank you for the timely Bowie song. RIP.

Thanks for the excellent tutorial!

This is great. I love how you give us the background Just for info some of the lyrics and chord sites have some really crazy chords in some lines that are just plain wrong.

Fripp and Eno both helped make this album, their craftsmanship and musicianship is intertwined in the songs all over this album. great works

this lesson deserves so much more love

Very nice!!! Better than just most rhythm only lessons!

The best guitar teacher on YT. Brilliant. Thanks for all the good work. Cheers from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

That was brilliant. A well crafted song and you made it jump out - hey that's Bowie "Heros" song. That's interesting with the drop D tuning. Well done mate. Parraboy

Beautifully executed vid ! BIGTIME THANKS.

Dude. Thanks a lot! I've been playing for a long time. But there's still so much details to learn. That's why I still love KZread. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

That is absolutely fantastic! Thank you sir. I shall be donating so that I can see more of your videos.

Just a fantastic breakdown. Great song choice. Thumbs up.

Excellent! down to earth and just all around excellent instructor. Thank you so much

One of my favourite songs, thank you.

Great lesson. I have great fun with this song and a looper.... sounds amazing!!

Beautiful sustain!

Thank you for the excellent tutorial and instruction!

brilliant insight, interpretation and distillation, thank you. great song, my only album by the great davy jones

What a fabulous lesson ! Watching it every day until I get it.

Once again, absolutely magnificent! Thanks

Fabulous!!! Appreciate all the insights and direction. Article was fan friggin tastic. So no Ebow used, all Fripp using Eno's EMS Synth thru the guitar, brilliant. Thanks for the website SoundonSound turn on. Steve

Omg, I grew up with this song, I will be dusting off my guitar and learning this. Thanks to you so much

I love the color of that LP

THIS IS SO GOOD

I just ended up here kind of by accident, but just wanted to compliment you on your playing. And more than anything on your style of demonstrating. It assumes a certain amount of knowledge, and goes quick.

Well thank you very much, really well explained, excellent tutorial. Regards.

Cool man!!! THANK YOU for referenceing that article on this song. SO cool!

Love that tone, not alot of gain but nice sustain and clarity, but capable of a nice growl. Excellent video.

Love this song and your tutorial ( and your others as well). Thank you. Supposedly Fripp's guitars incorporate a sustainer, which partly accounts for the quality of that guitar line.

This is one of my favorite songs thank you so much

Awesome tutorial! Thanks! Can't wait to read the article.

Chingon hermano every single tutorial of yours I love your guitar too man

Great lesson, you cover so much. Thank you!

Great tutorial many thanks! Really appreciate it

Nice Job, you made this song so fun to play. Bravo!

One of the best tutorial sites Thank you.

Great video! I like how you first play the song then teach it. Keep it up!

Great lesson, thank you!

Great job, mate! Thank you!

Another great lesson, thanks!

Just a brilliant lesson, one of the best I have ever seen...and you are too modest!

Wow. That was great. Not that I'm really surprised, all your lessons are great.

Thank you so much! I thought it was a hard song for me (I'm a beginner) ad I learnt it thanks to you. :)

Sounds incredible!

Fantastic song and almost as good a lesson. Who could not love this???!!!

I love your videos. You've mentioned before that you do the bass for your backing tracks. I would really like to see a bass series for all of your great videos. After all, a bass is a guitar too.

Thanks a lot! Fantastic lesson

Great lesson like always, thanks!

Lovely work,man.Thanks

Ur tone is magnificent

Mindblowing that anyone could "thumbs down" this!

Thanks for this video! I love this song !

Great lesson, very accurate and cool!

Stunning! thanks from New Zealand

really like your tone cool playing sounds clean

Man! This is the best fucking tutorial I have ever seen. A nice straight forward intro showing us how the parts looked when played. Then a straight forward break down of the parts. But not too broken down. None of this 'ok, so put your second finger on the 5th fret of the D string and your little finger on the 2nd fret of the A string and play the 2nd, 4th and 5th strings etc'. Just showing us, visually, as you would a mate.

Your a great guitar teacher thanks man
