[QUOTE="Davy, post: 77180545, member: 404357"] I used to play guitar, being a child of the 70's and classic Rock. And it's not fair, because today one can buy a digital phrase recorder to figure out solos and parts when in the 70's we had to keep moving the record player needle back and forth. I scratched a bunch... of good LPs back then learning Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Jimi Hendrix riffs and chords. I found that to get the chord structure of a song by ear, I'd follow the bass notes. Once I had that then it was just a matter of time to figure out what chord type was being played. I didn't get into heavy metal, so I didn't have to bother with their power chord stuff which most of the time was only a 2-note interval simulating a chord. With a lot of distortion, 2 notes can sound like a full chord. [/QUOTE]
