So Far Away From Me Lesson

[marcel12309]

playing in the exact key is critical only if you can sing in that key..........it's all right to play a song in any key you want.......just noting the original key is good only if you want to play against the original recording and FYI , no one key is proper...........very nice version !......

@marcel12309 Thanks. Nice response, btw. Cheers.

give your audience the exact proper original key "E" not "G"

Groundhog you give excellent lessons. I've been playing 40 years myself. Your Heart of Gold lesson was also on the mark. Keep em coming buds.

You got a lot of talent too. Have you written any material?

[MrBlieje]

[edinaldofilho42]

[alwaysopenminded]

'Jesus don't want me for a sunbeam' by kurt cobain

[siongxplore]

good performance!!

[trackerworld]

I remember where I saw you. You did some episodes on Emily of New Moon right?

[aikido7]

Very UNIQUE, guy. I'm sure a folk/country version of this song was the farthest thing from Knoffler's mind. But it definitely works. Thanks for working on this video and sharing it. Your instructions were effective and to the point.

Im thinking about buying a Songwriter deluxe cutaway. Just wondering what your opinion of the gibson acoustics are? Nice job on the song by the way.

[sspiblue]

Thanks alot man,

[cknascar20]

this is really awsome think I acually prefer this version to the original and I never thought it could ever of been improved fantastic work

[guitargus]

I was looking for an acoustic version of this song. Great job...harmonica is a nice touch

[cdsouthern]

Wow, to be able to switch keys like that.

[rogersgitar]

Very good - What cey is the harmonica - an can you tetch us hov you blow? Roger,Norway

[peltband]

Thanks for the comment. It's a G harmonica... the riff starts on a G... out on hole 8 I believe... then down to an F#, which is in on hole 7 if I'm not mistaken... (I don't have a harmonica while I'm typing this). I guess I'll post a harmonica lesson video for this one soon. Try to figure it out in the meantime by ear.

Peace!

- Eric.

sorry to bother u again.. but, can you translate the notes you play on the harmonica for the guitar so we can do some kind of a "solo"

thanks in advance

[fvboss429]

very very nice

do you think this can be played with just the guitar playing the chords?

this is a 5 star vid

you must some kind of star where you live right?

thanks for the lesson
