One of the most romantic, magical, and haunting tunes ever
Check out deftones covers of sleep walk.
It’s cool how he dream about this song and made it
Thank you. Thank you very much.
You nailed it!!
I dont know if i feel it as romantic, i feel it as nostalgic sad song, magical but sad song for me, I dont know why
Im 54 and just picked up a guitar 6 months ago. Thank you for this. It makes me want to continue on my journey.
Hope you are enjoying being a musician. It's never too late and it never ends ... Thanks for being my inspiration to practice tonight.
Thats great :-) have a good time!
This is how every guitar instruction video should be. Straight to the point. No fluff. No bs chatter. Thank you.
Was in bands back in the sixties, Never had more fun watching and playing along with the music on your site. Thank you so very much.
Thank you so much!
So you watched him play in the 60s?
I’m jealous.
Aww lucky i wish I lived back then because they had better music, love was better it was just nice living
I AGREE and absolutely true
Just beautiful. I'm 77 now, but I remember hearing this for the first time long ago. I've loved it ever since, and have learned a version of it on my Strat. Great job!
I'm 72 years old and this tune still haunts me.😊
Now I might be able to play it!
Thank you so much my friend 👍😊
One of the most beautiful songs ever written!
RITCHIEEEEEEEEEE
Jajajajajajaja te la mamaste!
Lovevit
Love it
Santo and Johnny made the song.
@@ediehunter1563 ohhhhhhhhhh that makes sense
Not an experienced guitar player. But when I here something I love, I practice for days until I have it. I fortunately am able to pick up things very quick. Now I can add this to my repituor of songs too difficult for me to know, with dust in the wind.
Get you the song "one last breath" it's a modern(er) song that most will immediately recognize, and it's only got like 3 different parts, and sounds WAY more complicated than it actually is
Never give up
I had heard this song before somewhere, a movie perhaps.
Stumbled across it by pure chance a few days ago and was absolutely obsessed with it. There's something magical about this song , either way I've been playing this non stop until I've got it down .
So thank you for making these tabs they're perfect.
I've wanted to know how to play this for 20 years, the tabs I always found were single note tabs that I knew wasn't the "real" way, thanks for posting
Thanks!
😊 Santo & Johnny Farina : Sleepwlk ,1959. Recorded on Pye- in C . N B the F minor chords give it a unique tang
:- 24 yrs ago I 'scored it out ',note by note on to music paper - v time consuming, & learned to play it on piano / keyboard ( nice with certain 6/8 rhythms) Th Shadows 1961 version was much different : 'heavyer' & with some altered phrasing.
3 years of practice later I can finally play this song
Great!
@@diegoalvarez6083 lol
@@zidanimawan8021 lol
en 30 minutos yo lo tube
Johnny hendrix#23 bruh the song isn’t even hard lmao
Santo&Johny what a classic!
En México hay muchas personas q amamos está música lamentablemente acá no gustan mucho de esto......sigue enseñando a tocar está maravillosa música amigo hermano brother Conlon saludos una hispano humilde gracias
Thank you!!!
EL MUNOZ !!hola bandido, donde el cartel de surf Coca crece, le pregunto a esa Vega
Escuchen la versión de Javier batiz en mi opinión una de las mejores en guitarra 🎸 regular con mucho feeling !
Como no amigo escucha a los cuervos rockabilly trio son de México
Gracias amigo
There will never be music like this again
Be the change u want to see in this world
Why do you think? There are talented musicians today, too. It's important for young people to get knowledge of the old music... this is a problem, BUT videos like this can bring a change. Hey, why don't you open a channel to show young musicians the retro sounds, too... ?! ;-)
@@laundry1799 You're right.
There is music like this still
Yes there will. Albatross came along decades after sleep walk and there will be others. Because there will always be music. So be happy and positive.
Hello Tom...I started playing again after decades because of this fantastic arrangement! I finally learned this after a month but will never sound as good as you do; I say not bad for a 69 year old and a great teacher from New England! Born in Vermont 1949 here! Unchained Melody next! Thank you again.
Thank you so much! Enjoy!
😮. Unchaind Melody is a clever tune & has many chord changes.
I’m supposed to be doing homework due 2 days ago and here I am just admiring his playing
4 years later im here doing the same thing lol..
Thanks!
Perfect ! Remember Marvin and Nokie.. fundamental masters !
What a great rendition of one of the best pieces of music ever made. Your version really captures the original vibe. Thank you so much!
Thanks for doing this . You have the most accurate version I came across on TH-cam. I’ve basically been teaching myself this song but your tutorial will perfect what I’ve fumbled through
That’s great, glad it’s helping and thank you!
Magic Tunes never to be repeated a formula one of a kind .Great playing Tom.
Such a beautiful song. Never thought when I first picked up a guitar I'd be able to play something like this!
Thanks mate.
Same as me man, yesterday I tried to play it and when I saw I could play it I was really shocked because I realized how much I've improved since I picked up the guitar.
god the surf tone on that jaguar makes this so much more special for me
Thanks, it’s a Jazzmaster. Easy to confuse them. 😊
Reverb on 8
after 2 months of practice, i'm nearly there, only think missing is playing it fluently! Great videos Tom, love them !
Glad the videos are helping!
Your the best! Wonderful rendition of "Sleepwalk." Thank you for the wonderful memories.
Tom you are the master of chord changes.
before youtube, I used to try to figure this song out by ear, but I could never do it much justice. Great cover. Thank you!
Thanks so much! My dad really wanted me to learn this song and he was happy
Thanks so much for laying out that beautiful tune on tab...what a service to humanity(me !!!)...lol
Beautiful. Honestly, I find the last three chords at the end the most difficult of the entire song, because they're unlike any I've previously used before. Love the content, man, keep it up!
Great-Grandfahter of every indie rock riffs.
Have to learn this for a gig. Thanks for a no BS lesson.
I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for teaching this song. I think I’ve tried to learn this for years. This is the first lesson it clicked and I am great full for this. I even purchased your backing track. I’m a huge fan of surf rock. The first song I ever learned on guitar was Gloria and Walk Don’t Run.
My pleasure! I love this music so much and your comment means a lot! Thank you so much and enjoy playing!
Even tho I can't play it flawless rn, I can proudly say I learned it, yippie, thanks again, it was quite soulful
great tone and playing!! sounded great!!
I do not see how haters even hate this it's perfect for teaching thanks.
Thanks!
Beautiful job. Captures the wonderful fluid element that makes it such a great guitar piece. Terrific!!
I've always loved this.Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us here on this platform.
Thank you for watching!!
2:06 RRIIITTTCCHHIIIIEEE. All jokes aside man awesome cover. The reason i play guitar was because of La Bamba and this song. Saw it as kid and fell in love with the music and instrument. Your rendition is so close to pedal steel and i'm digging that subtle slap back reverb/echo!
Thank you so much!
It’s not Richie😢
Grt Job smooth action the slides the string bending and note for note also reverb full of twang for sure
😮I'm working on it Tom, thank you for such a great tutorial,,,you have improved my playing Sir❤❤❤❤❤🖖🤏
Man!! I could watch you all day!
Played rhythm to this song in the 60's in our garage band. Knew just a little of the lead and now you have inspired me to learn the rest of it. I hope I can eventually play it as good as you and my lead player did. Thank you!!
Thanks!
Ive heard a few versions but this is the best one ive heard so far and the Tabs are simple to read and follow
Nice job. Beautiful sounding guitar. I like how you bring more of Ritche Valens feel. Keep it up.. you are very close to Hank Marvin of The Shadows. Hank is the master of this style.
Best guitar channel on TH-cam,, period!!!
Thank you!!
Música de mi niñez! Agradezco poder escucharla nuevamente.
Muchas generaciones no tuvieron tanta suerte!
Really enjoy having learned all those old instrumentals,..oh so good they are. Thanks Tom!
I really love those old songs you teach. Good work
Thank you!
best guitar adaptation for this song. thank you!
Thanks for watching!
After learning this Over a year ago I've come back to say I mastered this song.
Amazing job with transcribing this, the feel. vibrato and scrolling the tab. Appreciate the all the time and effort!
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for making this man
Best version on TH-cam I'm going to go home and learn it amazing job
Thank you!
@@tomcon21 hey do you have a video on the chord progression the you know the chord notes following with the lead?
Silva Studios Universal Not yet, but good idea.
Thanks a lot. I'll learn it this afternoon. This is a great one.
I just installed a Bigsby B3 on my SG, and this was the first song that I wanted to learn. Thanks, Tom!
Riffman42 Great, enjoy!
Wow sounds great! Not letting my girl anywhere near you
Lol.
This is how we found your channel. Love the video layout.
You made that peculiar appliance youre holding sound like a real guitar, Tom. Well executed, sir.
Outstanding Lesson. Thanks Tom, much appreciated. A+
Thanks for the tabs. Very helpful for learning this gem. You played it flawlessly!
Just got a new Jazzmaster in the mail yesterday, gonna have this one down note for note by the end of the day!!!
Enjoy!
Good luck to u sir👍
It plays well on a strat too,
You don't hear enough of Santo and Johnny these days although their recordings are still available on CD or as mp3 download. Much underrated.
Excellent and subtle use of the vibrato arm in this one, Tom. Nice one.
You just helped me in taking my playing to the next level!!! Thank you so much!!!
Great! Enjoy!
Oh my gosh. Thank you. You made this so much easier.
Thanks so much for this! Always wanted to learn this song, seemed way too hard, but thanks to your tabs I'm going to practice this until I can play it. Great work
This is a great cover. My favorite version is probably Jeff Beck's.
Nicely played and love the Jazzmaster. 👍
I didn't know I needed to learn this until now. Thanks!!!
Thank you, have fun!
Man that was away esome.Beyond cool
Loved that rendition. 10/10
Thank you 😊
Que de plaisir de recevoir cette musique qui a bercé notre jeunesse merci
I love this tune and your playing; perfect. This was a slow dance tune (Ventures) when I was a teenager, Great job Tom!
Thank you!
After 2 months to trying to learn this song, i find your video and i made it
Thanks to you men :D
You’re welcome!
Nice job, loved the sound... I grew up back in those days..
I just ordered a Gretsch Electromatic 5420, and it's scheduled to be delivered two days from now. This will be the first tune I learn to play on it. Well done, as always, Tom -- thanks for the inspiration!
snailspace You’re welcome, enjoy the guitar!
Learned it -- great lesson (and I got a chance to use my Mickey Baker chords) . . . thanks again!
Great!
A PERFECT RENDITION
Thank you
Beautifully Played ! Love to hear the harmonized chords instead of single notes. Thank you.
perfect playing and gorgeous guitar!
Thank you!
I gotta get some p-90's on something ! thanks I bought the tab by the way...great lesson. I've been trying to play this by ear for a long time...I can remember when it was out on American Bandstand...loved it then and now.
"Not my Ritchie ... Oh god bob not my Ritchie"
ok now im sad
“RITTCHIEEEEEEE!!!!”
jajajajaja so good
RITCHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Vincent Mileto it was in at the beginning and at the end
Thanks Mr. Conlon...I bought and downloaded the backing track and watched the video, it really helped me alot..now all I do during this lockdown is play this song over and over..I think I'll download some other backing tracks soon :)
It's sleepwalking. Love this. Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
Wonderful and adept arrangement. Dazzling!
Thank you!
Thanks for posting as this helped me tremendously on the last three chords....SUPER !
Thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot, sir I really needed that, all the best for your career and keep up the good work.
Thanks Tom. Great version
Half way done with this. Amazing tabs bro I love you so much
This is sooo nice! Love just listening, thank you!
Super version, Merci pour votre façon d'enseigner. Szlut de France
Juste magnifique j'adore merci pour ce partage
Really good job. Been wanting to learn this for a while and your chord changes are great!
Thank you!
Excelente interpretación,hermosa melodía de ayer y siempre mi admiración y respeto desde New York
Thank you!
Sublime. Thanks for tabbing it. Some of those chords got lost in the seventies so it’s great to see them here.
Thanks!!
El mejor cover que he visto para esta canción. Muchas gracias
Thank you!!!
Really, I’m fan ! You’re staying on the same level as Elvis in my heart… and my guitar ! :-)
Well done, Tom! I took what you showed me here and substituted some chords where there were single melody lines and came up with a slightly different arrangement. Many thanks for the inspiration and I look forward to tucking into some of the other tunes you have on your channel.
Chris Maddox Great, Thank you so much!
Fabulous version of this song. Thanks Tom. I’m putting in the work to learn this.
I love this song....I don't want to learn it.
It would lose something, if that makes sense♥
Yes, but it’s so worth it!
I so know what you mean
yeah, learning a song sometimes takes the magic out of it.
If you love music and food, stay out of music schools and kitchens.
I know what you mean.
But this song is really a simple song. But this guy is not playing it so simple. He is playing it fairly intermediate. Guitar playing can get fairly complex. But even this is not complex. That's why I respect good musicians. Dedication is the magic word.
What I'm trying to say is, don't get discouraged. With practice it becomes easier. That's why they say. Practice makes perfect. It really does. This song is worth your time and effort. Really.
