Скачать или смотреть Foo Fighters - "Hey, Johnny Park!" How to Play Guitar Lesson

A guitar lesson for "Hey, Johnny Park!" off of Foo Fighters' 1997 album The Colour and the Shape.

This one, like "Everlong," "Monkey Wrench," and "February Stars" on The Colour and the Shape, is in Drop D tuning. The main riff of "Hey, Johnny Park!" can be a little tricky. I still struggle to play it cleanly because it's so quick and then you immediately have to move down the fretboard into that E7 shape. Like anything else, practice this one slowly and listen to the song for all of the variations and sections which I cover in detail over the course of this tutorial.

"Hey, JP!" is another Foos favorite of mine. I'd call it the hidden gem of The Colour and the Shape, along with "February Stars." Like all of the songs on arguably the Foos most famous album, "Hey, JP!" focuses on a crumbling relationship. This song has a cool riff, is an awesome example of quiet verse - loud chorus dynamics, and really displays Dave Grohl's impressive vocal range. In fact, this might be one of Dave's best vocal performances on any Foo Fighters record. It's an emotional and serious track, yet you can still rock out to it...pretty much my favorite type of song.

Guitar: Fender Blacktop Stratocaster HH (in Drop D tuning)
