I regularly upload videos to my channel that might help you learn the parts created by the guitar heroes of my youth, including Johnny Marr, John Squire and others. I create videos that use a combination of a play-along cover plus animated tab. Usually I focus on the way the tunes are played live, given that some artists often used lots of overdubs and intricate parts on the original recordings. I also create a backing track with drums & bass to play over. Using the magic of the ‘Playback Speed’ feature in YouTube you can now slow down videos to whatever speed you desire whilst retaining the correct pitch. This makes the animated tab approach a very effective way to quickly learn songs. I’m not the only person using this technique in YT videos of course. What makes mine different are the behind-the-scenes effort that you don’t see; the detective work that goes into getting the parts down so that they can be transcribed as accurately as possible.
