This tune and many others by Roddy inspired me to take up guitar. i wish you tube had existed back then, my fingers and ears bled trying to learn this. especially that solo. i never could get it. today i learned it in 5 minutes.
And Johnny Marr said...... "A couple of days before I wrote 'This Charming Man' I'd heard 'Walk Out To Winter' (by Aztec Camera) on Radio 1, and I felt a little jealous. My competitive urges kicked in"
Bert Weedon play in a day he certainly aint 33 chords and the truth yeah that about right he throws in every chord and then some a brilliant guitarist up there with Johnny Marr
Great footage. I hope he's planning a new tour in 2010. I haven't seen him for 3 years! What's that at the end? - Sounds like the DangerMouse theme tune
