Riffin On Blackbird - 3 Camera Shoot
This video is a 3 camera shoot of playing Blackbird using a 2 finger picking style. A link to the tutorial explaining this picking style is below. After learning the pattern, I played along with the actual recording to see if I could play it while keeping time with the "click track" you hear in the song - not an easy thing to do. However, after listening a few times, I did pick up a few subtleties. In the pattern, Paul is using his thumb on the E, A & D strings to keep time with the click track. Also, between the "Blackbird fly..." choruses, when its just the guitar riff, he is "pinching" the E & B strings when he moves up the fret board, instead of just the E string as he does throughout the rest of the song.
One other thing I noticed from watching Paul play Blackbird on various videos, is that when he plays the verse riff and then does a short tag to end the riff, he plays an A7 chord instead of just B string 2nd fret.
Its really enjoyable to finally play the song in a way that is "closer" to how it was played when it was recorded. In this take I'm playing from "muscle memory" after playing along with the song a few times. So I hope this video is helpful to folks who have been wanting to learn how to play it.
