Dude...I don't know if you even remember this video is here but I wanted to thank you. I needed to learn this song and I just got so many cool licks and riffs and fills from you...much appreciation.
Neil, after several attempts over the years I keep coming back to your version of Black Velvet, trying to learn it and then giving up. I have studied your tab on the link and even used software to musically slow down the riffs to learn it but I still struggle. Is there any chance of you doing a video tutorial when you have time, breaking it down into the various sections? I see a number post asking for the same thing.
Outstanding!! You almost make me want to pick up a guitar again. It's been too long and I have a serious case of wimpy finger now(no calluses left!)...But I'm thinking I might kipe my daughter's guitar and start playing with it. Thanks for the link to the chords too!!
yo Neil, dude I love your playing style man... those fingers are smooth! my girlfriend told me this is her favourite song. I play guitar, so I thought id try it out and ... man.I am learing from you. still struggling my way through your into and rythm. then ill move onto the chorus! sick!
That was really good man! For some reason when I play my own version I get bad luck and so I don't play it any more (lol ; D ), but it was nice listening to someone else for a change.
Hey neil, just a shout out from one busy guy to another... if you ever find a chance to tab out more, that'd be awesome. If not, I'll just be grateful for the learning experience ;)
This completely and utterly blows every other attempt out of the water. This is spot on. The chord voicings are spot on. Great stuff dude!
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightning, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Every word of every song that he sang was for you
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could
You do?
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
If you please, if you please, if you please
