the smiths - back to the old house cover

[SeniorConecho71]

not only should four people be made to go back to the old house,but they should be locked in t' coal bunker...

[nandho5]

What's your guitar?

[ariellecoofer]

Beautiful, I love this song, and it just sounds... amazing.

[eluedy]

@ariellecoofer thank you!

[inalovelessworld]

Great cover of my fave version of 'Back to the Old House' =)

[theside27]

what is the chord after C and the start?

[eluedy]

@theside27 A minor

[ceneg]

Great. What's the guitar you're playing?

[eluedy]

@ceneg it's an old brazilian 12 string guitar (with 6 strings) called Di Giorgio (circa 1975).

[jcw001]

beautifully played........hats off to you eluedy

[DF13NatalRN]

What´s the voice?

[enrashid]

Good work my friend, this is truly impressive

[Threefingerbum]

Sure, you have it down, but why only play not even half of the song? I can play C and Fmaj7 but you don't see me making a video of it, who cares?

[mattersalma]

hey this is great my friend, really great. thumbs up!!!

[eluedy]

@mattersalma Thanx!

[D0ST03VSKY]

Great job.

[Decelerated]

THE best Smiths song. Not by far... oh no. The Smiths are just in everything they do.... but "I much rather not gouho" to any other song sometimes. fakkin amazing!

[MrHankscorpio100]

great cover man! what acoustic is that??

[AnthonyDarnellHill]

That is a very beautiful piece of music.

[Watertraveller]

The TAB is also in Total Guitar magazine, August 98, Issue 46. Ebay might have a copy.

[TheOfficeLight]

Absolutely fantastic.

Any chance of some tabs?

[Pamberjack]

For a song like this I think I would REALLY help if we could see yr right hand as well. Still - great job

[kutbaag]

I think, if you are an artist, it's a great thrill to see the crowd goes wild at a concert, or the announcement that you've sold your millionth album. But to see people actually do your music on their guitar, bass or vocals must be the most impressive thing in an artists career. It just reveals the fact that people don't just listen or like your music; it's one of their daily thoughts and passions and activities.

oh and you play this very, very well.

[eluedy]

@kutbaag thanx!!

You've got five stars, 97 ratings, close to 25,000 views.

What's the chance of you gracing us viewers and five star raters with some tab?

Humble request.

A lot of people would be grateful.

Thanks for the vid.

[eluedy]

you´re right! i'll try, and it's a promise.

all the best,

eduardo luedy

[aleandg]

@eluedy any change of some tabs??

[eluedy]

@aleandg take a look at smithsonguitar.blogspot.com/20­08/09/back-to-old-house.html

[flatwear]

@eluedy

Well, it's not easy writing tab so I'll let it go.

There are tabs at different sites, I just think that yours is closest to the truth.

The closest to the truth that I've heard.

Some magazine may say that they have tabs, but they usually fall short. That's why I like this 'version' and why I want tabs: I'm just not good enough to figure out the fingerings on my own. I get close, but close isn't good enough.

Anyways, ...help us play like you.

[flatwear]

Thanks.

I've uses some tab sites, but they end up failing at some point in the song.

I can probably figure it out now watching your fingers.

I should be able to figure this out on my own by now... /sad

[Watertraveller]

The Tabs are in Total Guitar magazine, August 98, Issue 46. Look out for it on the bay! I can't fault it.

[Marinhoalvesdasilva]

Very nice. But what about the right hand?

[1984THB]

Check out my version, I amplified a shitty guitar through my Fender Deluxe with reverb and the use of a chorus pedal. Tell me what you think.

[MissingScientist]

Nice one!

[smackbannana]

Great job!

[Nigelxman]

Wow dude,. Absolutely beautiful

[Guedingen]

Damn good, you've certainly given 'slim' a run for his money!

[PersecutedCitizen]

[eluedy]

@eqrqt take a look at smithsonguitar.blogspot.com/20­08/09/back-to-old-house.html

[kidakuo]

[robbieonguitar]

[buckleyboyben]

[JEHOVAHCHANG]

Great Job! the best version on You Tube!

[tallron]

Eduardo, You are good ! The best version on Youtube. You must have Marfan's Syndrome like me, we make the best musicians. I grew up playing music, and like you, I have a great ear.I am self taught. You should check out

[machiavelli666]

[greendave08]

Sweeeeeeeet!!!!!!!

[MarcosVideoMusic]

[JoshPoshFleming]

Spot on mate!! I love it! Any chance you could play it slower just so I can see the shapes you make??

[juttkeys]

Ye love it ! Excellent and the trill at the end haha very JM, you always hear him doing that trill thing live too. Nice one.

[eluedy]

thanks! i'm a fan of your renditions because you display the same fashion I have about the smiths and the marvellous Johnny's style.

[baldyman123]

eduardo

[OtherVoices12]

[gbyrne]

great stuff,have you got the tabs for it?

[Danielavrasinec]

5 five stars played well

[floydianworld]

Nice tone and I think it's pretty well note for note!

[dw2345]

i like it...what kind of guitar is that...the neck looks pretty wide.....!

[eluedy]

It is an old 12 string guitar. I only use it with six strings, because it's too fragile to handle such pression. But I love its sonority.

[hendam10]

muy bien, vientos men so good

[starman900]

sempre é legal assistir um brasileiro tocar the smiths

[sallyheartjack]

beautiful. perfect.

youre very lucky. =]

[rayboogie1]

so good

[marokokisetter]

beautiful.. its a shame you didn't play the whole song though..

[eluedy]

I'll try sing it sd well! :-)

[arejay00]

beautiful song, beautifully played.

[bradley1986]

beautiful, can we make out

[christophgerald]

thats perfect.............thanks my friend

[vorgongod]

having seen you do Headmaster, i found this. you just get better and better. i saw one of the comments above saying the person wa gonna learn it from you rvideo. me too!

Bra-vo.

[eluedy]

Thanks!

[stevenuuu1212]

46 seconds gave me a bit of a lump in my throat!

[riles9999]

So sweetly done! I'm gonna learn to play this from your video. I never noticed how nice Johnny's part was in this song. Nice job!

[Wol1verine]

Excellent job! Five stars......

[GREENHOFFS]

it still makes me cry

[Stillillgal]

great

[cryingmoon74]

Very good :)

[bradley1986]

omg that was beautifullllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllwill uu marry me?

[beewiz33]

Sounds wonderful! I've been struggling to learn this song; I can play the beginning part, but the middle confuses me... any chance you could tab this out?

[egosheep]

awesome cover. one of the best things about youtube is learing smiths songs! they'll never make a learning smiths dvd so we'll have to do it ourselves. Thanks again.

did you use tabs or did you pick it out yourself?

[eluedy]

It was by ear. Most difficult was to understand the bass lines. Thank you for the comment.

[fauxeli]

very pretty

[TomBergin]

Very good, I like your technique. I'm learning this at the moment, so it's beeen very helpful. Cheers.

[seoulstar]

My dear friend, you are truly truly blessed. I don't know if guitar playing is your living but it should be. This is fan-bloody-tastic.

[eluedy]

Thank you for the nice words.

[Uncleskinny]

What else can I say? This is wonderful, and you, sir, are Johnny Marr's son and heir. Fantastic.

Peter

[eluedy]

Thanks!

[bladerunnerchile]

Bravo!, sounds clean and in perfect tempo

[janegee]

Bravooooo, ahhh sound I long to hear all day sunbathing...acoustice Morrissey covers

[Adrilondon]

Very good job mate! Now I will play it well!! :) thanx

[bubblelux]

very, very, nice!!!!~can you say what chords you are using? thank you very much.

[eluedy]

The harmonies are not difficult to explain. In fact, we need a tab to indicate how to do the guitar accompaniment in counterpoint with the melody of the song. I'll try.

all the best

eduardo

[slimjimuk10]

Sounds great!

[girlafraid50]

Thanks for sharing that, it was beautiful. I've always preferred the acoustic version of this song.

I'm teaching myself to play the acoustic guitar and it's my aim, one day, to be able to play my favourite songs as beautifully as you. I have a long way to go.

[eluedy]

Thanks for the nice words, girlafraid.

All the best,

Eduardo

[eluedy]

Well, I have to confess that I didi some sound processing with soundforge - compression, maxbass to increase the lower ends and so on. The guitar is an old brazilian Di Giorgio (1977), it is a twelve-string guitar, but I only use it with six - the poor guitar doesn't handle it anymore... but I love the way it sounds. Strings... Dean Markley, I guess. But I actually preffer Martin strings.

all the best,

Eduardo

[marrzipan]

that's a great sound!! What kind of pickup is that?

[eluedy]

Although the pickup that you can see, the recording was made only with my sony digital camera built in microphone. Btw, the pickup is an EMG - and it sounds great. As soon as I get a good sound card that allows me good recordings im my pc, I'll try to use it more effectively.

[marrzipan]

Amazing, I thought you played amplified. What guitar/strings are you playing? The lower registers sound almost like a classical guitar to me, very fitting for this song.

[KissMyShadesToo]

Yeah, but can you eat a Rowntree's Fruit Pastille withuot chewing it?

[bluepoet]

R u Johnny Marr? Tell me. I won't tell nobody. lol

[eluedy]

No no no... Daniel is the "real" Johnny :-) I'm just a big fan tryig to pay tribute to the genius of Johnny Marr

[Belmondough]

great!

[danielearwicker]

Beautiful!
