You really have to know how to orientate in time with it like Mithril says - you have to learn where to stick it to get the timing. It's also hard to play against the rhythm guitar. I agree it's harder than it sounds for sure. His early efforts sounded more "trapped" in the boxes he was playing in - thematically he just didn't have the narrative UNTIL the take on the record.

He was having trouble threading together something that worked. If you listen to the out-takes (yes they are out there) Jimmy was having a hard time with the solo. I've got a couple of stories about Stairway on my website if you want to look those up for fun - I talk about the year my band played it for a talent show when I was 13 or 14. If you are really serious about learning Stairway be warned - it is deceptively simple but is actually enormously complex. There's also an old Alfred "Off The Record" edition out there that's pretty good - not perfect but darn good. Specifically Alfred has a new " Platinum album Edition" they have just released - the guitar one is good (though I was disappointed they didn't do an off the record version as a complete album score). Most can be found on various torrent sites or purchased on Amazon or your local music store. Problem is - lots of these are "wrong" - the degree to which they are wrong varies - some are crap, others are pretty good with only a few being excellent. There are also a couple of note for note songbooks too. (Guitar World & Guitar for the Practicing Musician were the two biggies) Seek those out if you can - they might be floating around out there. There are so many hack versions of Stairway on the net it isn't funny.Īs far as transcriptions go over the years there have been several in the various guitar mags going back to the 80's.

If you master the notes AND THE FEEL you'll be a waaaaaaaay better guitar player for it - and a waaaaay better musician - plus you wont be a hack. Most guys on the net blow the feel (that's assuming they can even play it right). Then when you think you can play it perfect practice it 100's of more times and really try to get into the feel of it. Keep practicing (literally - 100's of times until you can play it perfect). You can speed up or slow down the song at pitch (or change pitch - but I'd keep it to pitch) which will help you practice along and help you "hear" what's going on. Drag Stairway into the program - ignore the bpm settings.

You want to get serious and have some real fun? Download REAPER - it's a recording program like protools and free to demo and use for as long as you want. Break it down into pieces and gradually thread them together as you learn and keep pushing yourself to play to speed. First: the solo - is way faster than you think it is. Here's some tips that will help you learn the solo. I know Stairway very well and have just finished a 6 month recording project transcribing every single part.
