The Small Faces – Itchycoo Park Guitar Lesson Info
Learn how to play The Small Faces – Itchycoo Park note-for-note on guitar with The Small Faces – Itchycoo Park Guitar Lesson.
Itchycoo Park is one of the Small Faces’ most iconic songs — playful, psychedelic, and packed with that unmistakable 60s energy. In this lesson, we focus on Steve Marriott’s acoustic guitar part, teaching you exactly what he plays on the original recording.Because the acoustic drops out during the bridge (“I feel inclined to blow my mind…”), I’ve also created a specially arranged part for that section. This way, you’ll be able to carry the song all the way through on solo acoustic without losing momentum.
You’ll learn:
- Marriott’s original strummed acoustic part, broken down clearly and slowly
- The chords, rhythm, and accents that give the song its unique bounce
- My custom arrangement for the bridge, designed to sound natural and complete on one guitar
- Full supporting materials: video lesson, performance playthrough, tab, chords, and lyrics
- Whether you’re a Small Faces fan or just love classic 60s British rock, this lesson will give you everything you need to play Itchycoo Park confidently from start to finish.
