@@JayGeschwender I'd settle for doing them half as well as you! I've started back up after 30 years, and I'm determined not to wimp out on tackling the barres!! They do lend some classy sound, but yeah they are not my favorite. Give me C, G, Em, etc. My fingers are hurting like mad, but I'm hoping another few weeks and the calluses will form. keep up the great stuff. I know this is one of your older ones, but you're still plugging away.
Are you a baritone, right? I'm, but I'm not a very good singer due the lack of technique and I don't have the time to assist to singing classes, so I have to do it on my own. Do you have any advice or know a book or something that can help me?
Well, sadly, there is no book. Your voice is an instrument that can only be developed through a great deal of practice. When I began singing, I was not very good at all, in fact, I was very bad. I just kept working at it. Voice coaches can help you learn to project your voice. Knowing how to get your voice to carry is the first hurdle. Other than that, practice, practice, practice. Good luck buddy.
Your voice matches this song perfectly!
Hambur Thanks!!!
