In this lesson, Ayla dives into two of the most iconic guitar riffs from The Rolling Stones’ 1971 studio album Sticky Fingers. Considered by many to be one of their best albums, it’s packed full of incredible guitar work by Keith Richards and Mick Taylor. The two songs we’ll be looking at are “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking” and “Bitch”. 

To play the riffs from these songs, you’ll have to be familiar with a few important guitar techniques like bending, sliding, and double-stops. On top of that, you’ll also need to change the tuning of your guitar to “open G” for the first riff, so make sure you have your tuner handy! Don’t forget to follow along with the tabs below!
