Freight Train - Variations

[tazzarman]

Nice version friend,really enjoyed the picking.

[mitreswell]

I'm sitting here watching you play thinking that's a weird shaped lower bout on your guitar — never seen anything like that before . . . then I realise, it's your knee! Time for me to go to Bedfordshire, I think.

[HenfieldWill]

@mitreswell LOL! :-)

[Switzer727]

I like your guitar whenyou retire and if you don't need anymore sale it to me.

[delkhairio]

[loonyranger]

A beautiful tribute to a wonderful lady.

[harveyewalker]

You're the man will, I'm burning my fingertips trying to play

the basic freight train, need more practice. You give good

instruction.

[benisa15]

[philipglaser]

5 stars - really deserves 10. Lots of fun to watch - and inspirational to those of us who tend to just stick to the notes.

[WalbertJr]

The smile you give us at the end reflected the smile I had on my face!

[bradgenetta]

You should absolutely form a folk band and tour!

This is the best version of freight train ever. Period.

[HenfieldWill]

Ah, well, I play in a 6-piece ceilidh band, and we do dances here and there... :-) Will

[RodneySTR]

amazing job Will :) i would like to learn finger picking. did u teach yourself will? or did u take lessons? and if u did teach your self can u give one pointers on how . like what kinda good books are out there :)

[HenfieldWill]

Hi - taught myself by playing with other people and by listening to records of other people playing. And practised until my fingers bled - and then practised some more. There's no substitute. There are some instructional books and DVDs out there but I can't comment on them, I'm afraid, as I've never sen them! :-)

[spectrum1961]

fantastic playing. Your picking skils are amazing

[MerlynSchutterle]

Very interesting version. I like to slip the Am in just before going to the E. I think I got that from Peter, Paul and Mary.

[killTheExplorer]

honestly i wish i could just get a cd of your playing guitar. id give copies to all my neices and nephews and cross my fingers that it would inspire them to start playing as well!

[HenfieldWill]

There are loads of free, downloadabl mp3 files at my web site - the URL is shown in the "More info" link = top right of this page. :-) Will

[bigalwhittle]

Excellent picking! Nice hat!

[HenfieldWill]

Cheers Al - Mudcat rules! :-)

[crguitar411]

Would give you 10 stars if I could. Great tune that you make even better

[polymerchm]

Great version!! This would make a terrific series of lessons (like daddystovepipe's Thumpin' the Blues lessons) Lots of neat "tricks". Keep 'em coming!!!

[osaki1977]

Great sound and good pickin' there.
