HAD TO CRY TODAY : Guitar Lesson Part One : ERIC CLAPTON : Blind Faith : STEVE WINWOOD

This is the first lesson covering the studio version of Blind Faith’s masterpiece, ‘Had To Cry Today’. The sound of the track can be attributed in part to the subtle interplay between two guitars, sometimes playing the same thing, at other times subtle differences. There are some intricate double-stop phrases going on in the verses which, whilst almost certainly improvised in the moment, stick to a theme. Once you get your head around the feel of it you can do your own thing, because trying to remember the exact picking patterns is both a bit of a nightmare and not really necessary for a reasonably authentic recreation of the song. On the surface, a lesson for the guitar in this tune could be an easy and quick lesson, but to do it justice it is really the opposite of that. As mentioned earlier, there are two guitars, weaving and working together. In this video (that I have called ‘part one’) we’re looking at the first (or ‘main’) guitar work in the intro and verses one and two. A later video will cover the second guitar in these parts, and another one or two will look at the chorus. It’s worth pointing out the little ‘catch’ between the riffs. Easy to think of as just the hand touching the strings while moving from one part to another, it is in fact very deliberate and a part of the composition. It’s not a ‘deal-breaker’, but it does add to the feel of the song. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. If nothing else, I always think that in taking apart and analysing tunes like this it increases our admiration for the musicians and our enjoyment of the music. It really is a masterpiece. Cheers, Mark
