Welcome to my channel and please do have a look around.
The videos here are a bit of a mixed bag with some performance videos, practice videos, play-along videos and smaller video snippets I recorded so as not to forget them.
The recent addition of many play-along tracks are great for playing and practicing along with and the 'how to play' videos are my take on best practices when playing certain tunes or sections of songs etc.
Please do check it out and I would really appreciate if you would subscribe and share and all comments are greatly appreciated too.
New videos coming very soon . . . .maybe even tomorrow (or the next day or day after that but definitely soon )

DAY TRIPPER GUITAR 1 (Instrumental Acoustic Guitar Duo) : Play-along
The main feature of Day Tripper is the two-bar repeating riff which forms the intro and the basis of the verses which are 8 bars long.
During the verses the riff is played twice through, taking up the first four bars,
it is then played up a fourth by simply repeating the same idea and same fingering but starting on the 5th string A instead of low E, this takes us to six bars.
The riff is then played again back on the low E string, which completes the 8 bars.
The song then switches to the chorus which also consists of 8 bars.
The chords here are all dominant 7 chords - F#7, A7, G#7, C#7, and B7 you can play these if you like, however, in this version and to avoid all those barre chords I just play all of these chords as ‘5’ chords -or power chords as you may know them.
After the second chorus the riff then moves up again to be played starting from B (a tone up from the open a string). It is played three times here (so taking up six bars) before it then goes in to a guitar solo which is also 6 bars long.
It then plays a verse and chorus again before repeating the main riff till the end.
I got the idea for this arrangement from the @tommyemmanuel arrangement where he plays the two parts at once. I split those two separate parts to form a duo version for my guitar students to play.

This video is a play-through of the chords to Livin On a Prayer by Bon Jovi. The chords are pretty straight forward open position chords so you’ll soon be stringing them together along with the track. During the intro I strum open position chords- Em, C and D. All the Verses follow the same progression as the intro but played as power chords - E5, C5 and D5 The Pre-Chorus chords are open positi...

SWING 42 (Acoustic Guitar) : Play-Along

This video is a play-through of the chords and melody to Swing 42 by Django Reinhardt. This has a classic jazz standard form of AABA (simply played through twice). Here I play the chords first time through over AABA then second time play the melody AABA. Once you get comfortable with each part, I would recommend also playing the opposite sections from me (when I play chords you play melody and ...

Well done l wish I could play like you 😢
@@pamelaarmstrong7710 thank you😊
Outstanding picking!
@@Motorcyclemike58 thank you kind sir😊
For England James 🇬🇧
@@imlarencharles8595 😂I’m a bit shaken by that comment . . . But not stirred😊
great playing. do you know what scale you where using? i would love to give this a go myself :)
@@mcman_x3748 I would say I was more thinking of chord tones and licks rather than scales. However, if you think of it that way I would reckon both the major and minor pentatonics are in there with some mixolydian elements and, as I say some blues licks and sixths. Hope that helps😊.
@@dreverguitarschool thanks :)
isn't this the flying pickets version?
@ well spotted indeed😊. I used the idea of the a capella intro from flying pickets but I think the song itself was released by Yazoo👍
The only solo guitar version on TH-cam that actually gets the groove and vibe. Thanks for sharing!
Wow, thanks a lot for the lovely comment!😊

A great song using open position ‘basic’ chords. A good one to use as chord practice and strumming practice💪🎸.
