‘Spent my days with a Marty most kind, strummed 6 strings, now I’m playing

[moptop]

I thought this day would never come where Going to California was taught to us by the great Marty Music

[mrfishy]

The hey you guys genuinly scared the shit out of me😂

[chadc.chaderson]

I get to spend 32:19 minutes with my favorite teacher learning my favorite Led Zeppelin song. Thanks Marty

[archerevan]

I love that you’re doing more classic rock n roll, thank you.

[Mikey-wgxu]

I have been coming back to this video for a good two years now. I think this is one of the best song tutorials ever on YouTube. Marty really explains well, with just the right amount of repetition where needed. And the arrangement of this complex piece is spot on. Everyone should support Marty at least a little.

[MokeMilly]

Really can’t believe just how much learning Travis picking patterns and practicing those has helped with songs like this, takes it from “damn this is hard” to “wow I only need to practice a few new chord shapes” 👍🏼👍🏼

[ericshewchuk]

i watched this entire video and practiced each part over and over and I am shocked I can play one of Zeppelins best folk songs now. Marty you've outdone yourself on this lesson thank you

[rylanhudson]

I love how it goes from beautiful guitar playing to a sudden “HEY WHATS UP YOU GUYS”

[ryanmillsap]

Zeppelin, Doors, & Floyd is all I need in life

[mikep]

There are a lot of tutorial videos on how to play GTC----this one is by far the best. Don't look anywhere else. Just stay here and watch this one over and over until you can play this in your sleep. You'll be happy you did.

AND---Always remember: Don't practice until you get it right--practice until you can't get it wrong.

Holy shit Marty! It took me nearly two months but I have finally learned this song. Thanks so much for taking the time to teach! I have always loved this song, I cannot thank you enough!!!

[Valthekid]

I think this inadvertently may be the greatest guitar tutorial ever.
I never comment on anything. I’m sort of not really a beginner but the way you explain it without over complicating it. Sort of forcing us to learn the picking pattern before varying the high e or d string looks is masterclass. If you threw all that shit on us at once I would think this is impossible to learn and simply above me. Well done sir..

Marty, This is your Zenith lesson !
I'm an accomplished pianist, and an instructor but you broke through to me with this epic session !
Bravo & Grazie mille
from your Sicilian brother,
Michael Erik von Hartung

May the Schwartz be with you !

[SC-fjzp]

I was stoned got into your intro when you yelled @1:02 it made me jump!😳😂🤣

[dr.doofenshmirtz]

don’t worry all the time you spent trying to teach this was totally worth it, i’ve learned so much from this and i’m sure others have too. love u dawg

[wow]

I think Marty has a special emotion to LZ...

[Ratcatcher_jpg]

I’ve never heard this song until now, it’s beautiful

[kacywilliams]

It's all there. Anyone with enough patience can learn this beautiful song. Just follow Marty's steps. I'm still a beginner so it took lots of rewinding and replaying, but I got it. The right hand pattern is the key. Excellent tutorial 5/5.

[funklawfirm]

I’ve been wanting to play this song for the last 2 years. This lesson felt like it was a one-on-one lesson designed just for me. Thank you!
