MIDNIGHT RAMBLER : 'YA YA'S' LIVE : How to Play Mick Taylor's Slow Blues Guitar : ROLLING STONES

Shortly after joining the Rolling Stones, Mick Taylor found himself on a concert tour of the United States, the vinyl result of which was what I consider to be one of the best live albums of all time, ‘Get Yer Ya Ya’s Out’. Recorded at Madison Square Garden over two nights, ‘Ya Ya’s’ captures the ‘Greatest Rock ‘n’ Roll Band in the World’ at what many see as their peak. The album features some amazing guitar interplay between Mick Taylor and Keith Richards, none more stunning than their work on ‘Midnight Rambler’. Mick, of course, is a blues player par excellence, and he joined the Stones straight John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, that groundbreaking force that not only created excellent music but which also nurtured and produced many great talents, including Eric Clapton and Peter Green. I believe Keith played ‘Midnight Rambler’ in an open G tuning, with a capo at the seventh fret. For the purposes of the cover demo, and for those parts of his that I needed to reproduce, I stuck with standard tuning. The way he drives and conducts the song, and especially this section, is pure genius; one minute his guitar is snarling and angry, the next it is held right back, creeping and menacing. Pay especial attention to your string bending and vibrato. Mick is an absolute master of both techniques. The vibrato should be strong and aggressive, but not too wide. Enjoy your guitar playing!
