Hey Marty this video means a lot to me, my Grandfather of 84 just passed away this year on may 7th and Start me up was his favorite song. I really wanted to learn it for him and you helped me do it. Thanks for the lessons ❤

Marty thank you so much. You make playing easier for me. I've been playing for over 30 years and some songs are just so hard to get down .Especially when there's de-tuning involved. You are doing a great service to many veterans and wanna be guitarist. Its really great that you dont make people like myself at my age feel like dummies. Ijust wanna say thank you. I will tell everyone about your lessons.

Mick Jagger's mannerisms at 6:17 are hysterical. hahaha
I was going to mentally do that.

I love how on some episodes Marty will completely shred the song Cus he gets lost in it and then he will have to then go back to teaching it
It makes my day every time 😭😭

Do beast of burden by the rolling stones

[ffrederickskitty]

Great song. Love Charlie's drumming on this track. Great use of syncopation displaying his jazz root

[miked]

Hey Marty, I've been watching you since I started played & you've always been an amazing teacher but there's one little thing I've always been struggling with and that's getting the tone right. You ever thought of doing a little video about different tones and how to get them? Would be a really big help to alot of us!

Thanks again for everything and please keep your very own project going for as long as you can!

This is BY FAR one of the BEST Stones songs ever!! Thank you for this Marty

[marcusvan]

Marty!!! You’re one of the best teachers man!! Kept it going!!!! Appreciate your wizardry.

[ArtDonna]

OUTSTANDING MARTY (as always) You've got to be one of the "coolest" instructors and likely just a good person having followed you now for a good while. One day I hope to meet you in person at the NAMM in Anaheim. Till then, love all you do for us guitar enthusiasts.

"Ima Take Ya Places That Yaa nEver Seeeen " *puts hands on hips* That was brilliant haha. you made my day with that and learnt the song!

[melroberts]

[liquidsmoke]

[naveenpraba]

Love Rolling Stones! Great vid Marty! Keep it up

[AlanAttack]

"Start me up" is arguably the best music video ever!...06:15....Marty gets lost in the Jagger!....that rocked mate...got caught up.

[kevintaylor]

Loved the Jagger imitation about midway through.

[jesseberry]

Marty! I love you man I’m a novice at best, but I love learning from you. You make it fun and you are easy to follow. It’s weird in that I have watched so many of your videos that if I ran into you on the street I would talk to you like we have been friends our whole life. And you would be taking the safety off of your mace in your pocket like who is this dude I don’t know you! That must be a weird dynamic for you. I’m sure you get that a lot people talking to you like they’re your best friend and you have no idea who they are but they watched you so much they feel a kinship because they are familiar with you.
And you just have such a cool persona you just seem like an easy person to approach and talk to .

[andrewscowen]

We really needed the wide shot of your Jagger impersonation at 6:15 mark!

[jimdiskin]

well done sir! all elements presented and taught clearly. thank you!

[john-dimz]

Once again clean clear tones, no distortion, easily understood instructions....excellent Marty
