วีดีโอ

I'd like to apologise for all the sleep you've been losing because the issue of whether I choose not to record songs because I can't clear copyright was unresolved!

It was more the concern about songs you’d not recorded due to linguistic ineptitude… I’m sure there must be some mandarin blues 😀 I shall rest easy tonight, PP

@@GhostontheMoor Cheers Nigel, I'm very pleased with how it has come out

@@HugoBruno-g9p Awesome, thanks so much ☺️

Thank you - it's a lot less ambitious than some of the stuff you've done!

This was just a quick lesson on how to play my arrangement of Rock Island Line which you can find here: th-cam.com/video/dDdT4ySvreg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aOXnEwqK9LYStD5G . It's something people told me they would like when I was doing weekly uploads of cover songs, but the great thing about old blues songs is there are lots of different versions out there, so if you don't like my arrangement you could always learn a different one, or write your own 🙂

Thank you - I'm very glad you enjoyed it :)

I think it's the blues genre's propensity for euphemisms that means even the most innocent of phrases start to sound a little risqué when you stick them in a 12 bar 😂

@@pistolpetewearn Yes! Exactly. 🤣

And for a brief period of my early thirties it would seem!

Sure thing - for which song?

@@pistolpetewearn roll the old chariot ☺️

@@mescalito2178 Cool, I'll try and find some time. It's been a few years but I don't remember it being anything overly tricky - the vamp is just Am & G with a couple of hammer-ons (the capo puts it in Cm) and the instrumental section was largely just a question of what I could reach with my little finger while I played those chords.

Thanks so much - really glad you found it useful :)

Cheers! Thanks for taking the time to have a listen :)

No problem - I hope it was useful 🙂

Merry Christmas to you too!

Thank you! Very glad you enjoyed it :)

Thank you for watching. I'm sorry you didn't find it useful.

Thank you. I'm not sure I'd use the word "lovely" about a song with a grisly murder at the end though!

@@pistolpetewearn Well, all these years and they haven’t caught me so, yes, lovely 😀

Thank you - really glad you enjoyed it!

Gracias Jose, yo escribi esta canción. Yo como practicar mi español con usted!

Thanks so much!

Upper Lipholstery is looking boss !

@@bonecarving 😆It's changed again since this was shot!

Thank you - really glad you enjoyed it

You'll make me blush!

Thanks so much! You'll make me blush 😊

Thank you :)

@@pistolpetewearn ...fine...

Cheers!

Thanks Jose, and hello from Stafford!

I like to think I can make up for what I lack in finesse with sheer consistency 😉

Funnily enough Freight Train is on my current to-do list!

@@pistolpetewearn Great stuff Pete, I listened to the Peter, Paul and Mary version as a kid, but also love the Elizabeth Cotton one. As I had not heard of a Freight Train, growing up in Australia, I mistakenly sang, and, called the song "Faye Train" for many years. I have attempted to subscribe to you on TH-cam but, have been unable to sign in for many years? They keep telling me my email address is already in use and, after 2 emails and 1 text with a verification code this evening, still no joy. Love all of your music Pete and, look forward to listening to your version of Freight (Faye) Train soon.

It's a great tune - originally by Blind Lemon Jefferson.

Hola Jose. Gracias de nuevo por escuchar :)

Wow, thanks! So glad you liked it :)

Thank you - I was very pleased with this song.

Thanks for listening

Thanks so much! :)

Cool, thanks! Really glad you're enjoying them. I'm hoping to do some more lesson-type videos in the near future, so hopefully you might find those useful :)

Thanks so much. And cheers for subscribing too :)

Gracias Jose. Sigue tocando musica!

Thanks so much. I always enjoyed this song :)

Thanks so much - glad you found it useful :)

Glad my timing was so good!

@@pistolpetewearn Me too, it must be destiny. I look forward to more of your Blues tutorials.

Fantastic - thanks for sticking around :)

You're too kind!

Thank you. We have a few fiddle players around here, but most of them focus on British folk music. I really like the sound of the instrument on Blues & Americana though - so all credit to Olly for jumping in on my stuff.

Thanks so much!
