Wow, love how she is able keep tempo and timing no matter what. Slow down, go faster.. Always right in it. Great soft touch too

Not only a huge talent but humble and really, really beautiful too. She's the real deal.

It’s 2023 and her music still holds up completely - bravo Nancy your a definite icon of guitar - and just such a cool bad ass .

Most of my fondest childhood memories include music. My parents primarily listened to traditional country music - thanks mom & dad! My older sisters introduced me to rock 'n roll - including Heart. Thank you! The 70's have proven to be very much a high water mark for rock, and Heart was right there. Thanks to Heart for the great memories!

I absolutely ADORE Nancy Wilson's guitar playing and arrangements! By FAR one of the greatest to EVER be! This is one of the most dizzying riffs I've ever heard in my life, and have tried for YEARS to learn how to half-assed attempt (unsuccessfully, I might add), and one that I'm sure haunts 6 stringers EVERYWHERE as well! ❤❤❤

Lovely lady and possibly the most under rated guitarist in rock history! thanks for this!

Thank you Nancy for taking the time to show us how to play your songs. A wonderful, wonderful gift to so many beginner guitarists. I hope you realize it is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately, I no longer play my guitar. I had to give it up because my fingers weren’t suited for it, so I turned to the piano and am doing quite well. I can only hope one day Rick Davies from Supertramp can show me how to play some of his songs. I would be in absolute heaven for a tutorial from him like the one you have given here. Your fans are so lucky to have you. This tutorial keeps your music alive for generations.

She is a super genius. No joke whatsoever.

What I love about the Wilson sisters and their music is that, they don't do easy material. Their timing, their tempos, chord changes, vocal work! Everything about them speaks extreme talent! Plus they are nice people. To me, they are the greatest female rock stars in the busjness! Nobody sings like Ann and Nancy is a hell of an act to follow on guitar !!

There has never ever been better music...seriously what happened to music?? Just incredible she is

Killer playing. One of the best intros in rock. It really sticks out amongst the crowd. Nancy and Ann have true talent and are just real pros. So glad they are around

Over a million views. !!!!!! Words can’t express enough about her.. she’s loved by many..

What a class act Nancy. I have been around Heart since you and Ann started back in the day, and you both have never disappointed in any concert or special you have done.

That is an amazing piece of work. Seeing her do it on stage with her hair flying around all over in the lights….pure magic. I’ll never forget that night at the Seattle Coliseum (Key Arena) on New Year’s Eve 1979. Great night. Great show and one that all other concerts I’d ever see would be measured against. No one has matched it. Thanks Heart!

“Mostly where the dots are”. Hysterical. Still love that recording.
