Great arrangement and nice guitar work. My main complaint is the camera work, haha. It felt like three minutes on the extreme close up of his lip. And then no left hand shown on most of the guitar solo. Oh well, I really like the arrangement. Keep it up.
Hey, Grinch... thanks for your comments. This was one of the first clips I ever shot, I'd never seen Andy before, had no permission or anything, just heard him play and had to 'grab' it, you know? Also, I am NOT a guitar player, so totally didn't get the 'left hand' thing at the time. I'll keep it in mind whenever I shoot a guitar player from now on. Hope you'll check out my other clips, and pass on the ones you enjoy... I just passed half a million total views, cos of fans like you doing that!
I have a version of this on I did live not too long ago. - If you would like to check out my solo - just slip a bit towards the end, if you love this tune...take a chance.....
No. This was written in 1972 by the legendary Bill Withers. He is one of the most sampled men in history. Check out Grandma's Hands, Lovely Day, Ain't No Sunshine, Kissing My Love. All great Bill Withers tunes.....
I wasn't being mean man. I was just trying to spread the music. Some people still don't know that Hard to Handle is an Otis Redding song. So I work on that one too....lol
I've been wanting to cover this song, but my band has two guitarists on it, so we're probably going to base our cover on yours. OMIGOD THANK YOU!!! You are one talented guy!
hey guys we are talkin uk music industry here remember..they don't give a fuck for real talent.I have played jams with this guy when he was like 13,and i still see him now and again in the pubs...he will probably be doin this till the cows come in..but hey its the love of it that counts.
i've seen this guy live and he's amazing! he WILL become famous. his best song is shock to the system and his guitar solos are immense. if u live in the UK CHECK HIM OUT! u won't regret it.
Yes he can and yes he will be a star. Nice.

He is no Buckethead on guitar but plays with soul and that my friend is what it takes to play music. Nice job.
