This is literally the only video where I can learn how to play this song CORRECTLY, all these other tutorials don't help at all 😂

Funny thing is that you might be a supersonic shredder playing hundreds of notes in a single bar but still you won't achieve that charm, groove and beat that Neil Rodgers has with very basic four chords. He is so incredible.

[awiildlucas]

easily one of the most skilled and smartest guitarists the world has ever seen

[CranfordPark]

Co wrote and played rhythm on Let's Dance and here he is over 30 years later still relevant and and playing for an audience that weren't even born when he collaborated with Bowie.
A true pioneer and legend.

these chords have been played so many million times in a million ways but still this song is like it's coming out of nowhere and sounds out of this world. Why? geez I don't know This is magic of Niles as good as ever

No matter how many times you hear it.... it's ALWAYS beautiful and honestly I can hear it on repeat for hours.

This is one of those songs that could go on forever and you never have enough

[FLAMENCO]

This is the most funky thing I've ever heard

[clumsystrummer]

Something I'm sure guitar players can relate to: When first joining my latest band, I got the usual list of songs in their repertoire to learn. It had the usual Michael Jackson, Van Halen, Billie Idol, Prince chestnuts along with newer top 40 stuff. When I started working on Get Lucky I thought "Great! an easy four chord song" until I really tried to learn story short, far and away the most difficult song on the list.

[Zerotonin]

You could actually see Nile trying not to jive to the funk

[kickbiker]

"Nile Rodgers Sound" .... brilliant

[hermanmunster]

I grew up loving Nile Rogers' style, with huge collaborations with Diana Ross, Chic, Sister Sledge to name a few. His music transcends the races and age groups. Just pure brilliance.

[ritvikyeluru]

A masterpiece! Most of the times, we often forget that simplicity is the key.

[clement]

Incredible sound, beautiful strat, incredible guitarist.

[HT-lrrs]

THIS HURTS SO BAD.
This song introduced me to daft punk.

[aroryboreallen]

Listening to the way Nile composes is amazing.

[samscarletta]

This man..straight up musical Icon. But with no ego. Pure artist. He should be in the hall of fame and he don't give a ****. Respect to this legend. ✊

[Nirvanablue]

This is SUCH a GOOD WAY to do a video like this. Really, really beautiful job, D'Addario and Co. Nile really shines here.

I have nothing but total respect for this man. He produced so many hits for so many artists. And on top of that, in that Get Lucky music video, he looks so freaking cool playing his transparent Stratocaster.
