Let's learn this awesome Jimmy Page guitar lick.
Whilst prepping for a lesson I stumbled on this Jimmy Page guitar lick and thought to turn it into a lesson. Do you recognise the song it's come from? If you do let me know in the comments below.
I think it's important to have understanding and awareness when learning songs by other artists.
If you've watched some of my other videos or are a patron then you'll know I always encourage you to think about key and scale shapes. If you've got the bug to learn a song or a solo then you should definitely figure out why you like it so much and what makes it work, then you've got that for life and you can call upon it whenever you need it musically.
Enjoy the video.

Houses of the Holy. Always loved that one and the different variations in the song. 🔥🔥🔥
I stumbled on your channel looking for some Mark Knopler type licks and just wanted to let you know you have a wonderful way of explaining the lessons. Thank you for the inspiration to blow the dust off the guitar
great tone and such a simple lick but so effective
It's very similar to the beginning of the Stairway solo played down 3 frets
I always loved the little throw away solo at the end of this song, it has a lot of Jimmy page go to live motiffs
Houses of the holy for sure but definitely is on almost every record! Hahaha. Love Jimmy!!! Also your videos are so inspiring!! Keep em coming

One is shorter, resolving on the G String 2nd fret (A) and second is the one Sped showcases here which is a longer pentatonic run resolving on that open A string! Growing up it was always so much fun trying to make up different variations (I still do lol)

I tell everyone who plays guitar to check out your lessons. No one, not even the big guitar youtubers are as accurate as you are. I wish I could come to England and get a private lesson one day. NYC to UK with my Les Paul.

@SpedSpedding mate, best Jimmy tone, check out a bloke named Bryan Williams, he mods pick ups to mimic extremely closely Jimmys MSG 73 tone, and does the double necks as well. Put a set in a leftie double i have built up, they are amazing! Now i just gotta learn Stairway for my 70th b'day! Got 21 months! Better get off my arse and practice practice practice!
I love your teaching i have a form of autism so tabs i can do but find hard in fact i dont even know scales as such i use patterns that i see all over the neck thats how i get away with it but your slow break down of riffs ect is of great help
Nice lick!! Not sure if you have tried One of These Nights lead but it seems right up your alley. Tasty licks for sure.

Lesson on San Francisco from TSRTS at MSG that’s before his bow solo. I find it to be magical and can’t find a single quality/accurate video on KZread on how to play it, and with your channel being the real deal/competent, it would be cool if you did a vid on it! and if not, I’ll cry but still learn from your vids 🫡
Sped I’m so happy to see you’re back! Pretty sure the exact lick is from Houses of the Holy, but my first thought was the Stairway Solo! I’ve added Stairway, Black Dog, Custard Pie, Rock N Roll, The Ocean, Whole Lotta Love, Over the Hills, and Ten Years Gone to my daily practice session. Plus a little EVH for fun. Got any suggestions for another new one to learn?

Nice lesson, though I think I'll be playing that a bit slower than you. Understanding the major/minor relative keys and how easy it is to switch between them is a great way to expand your range of licks very quickly. I can't remember if you've done a specific lesson on this before. My very tentative guess at the chord based on what I can see of your fingers and some scribbled scale diagrams and a quick strum is an inversion of F#m7 (F# A C# E).

@@SpedSpedding Aha! I wasn't sure whether your fingers were on top three strings or the next three, surprisingly hard to be sure from that angle and my ears aren't quite as good as Dylan Beato's for recognising the notes played. Having checked my copy of The Guitar Players Chord Bible I can now see what you were playing. It's a fun game, you should keep it in. End each video with a chord and viewers have to watch the next video to find out what it is. Good fun for us and more views for you.😎
Thank you Mr. Spedding! I'm astonished by all the "misses" in the comments...at the risk of sounding boastful, I was like _Houses of the Holy_ right off the bat (key of A being a big part of the tell). Perhaps the major factor (for me) is simply being a Zep fan for so many years, one becomes very familiar with even micro slices of the guitar work (and vocals...and bass...and drums). :D IMHO, it's a tribute to Page as a _producer_ nonpareil--the "re-listening" value of their records--capturing the perfect performances that hold up to repeated listening. Formidable!
