Wow, nice job  :)

[titanmac87]

Well done seriously well done. Great job. Not too sure why but I'm finding this tune very hard to learn. Both the solo's I can play well but the rest of the lead I can't do.

Once again excellent job 5*

[donesis]

Would definitely love to come to Manipal. But I don't think I can make it before dec 007.

I used to play for the KMC band. We had great friendship with the then MIT bands - Bijith Baura and Sameer, Matts etc. Those guys really rocked. Those were the good ol'days.

Great knowing you pal. And all the best!!

Hi, Great to know that you have a squire too. I too am a big fan of Knopfler and Floyd.

Thanks for the comment. Chak de India!!!!!

[stevejamesmorris]

[donesis]

Thank you very much steve. Glad that you liked it:-)

[pinkfloydfan19]

Awesome !!! You are indian right ?

If you are, great to hear one play like that !!!

Mera Bharat Mahaan !!!

Just Wanted to know if that is an affinity strat or a standard one ?

[donesis]

Hi! Yes I am a proud Indian like you. Thank you very much for your comment. My guitar is a squier strat from fender. And of course Mera Bharat Mahaan!!!!Very inspiring comment!! great!!!!

[roger8791]

really cool groove

[donesis]

Thanks roger.

[euceph]

great work... pitchy in some spots, but wonderful, nonetheless.

[donesis]

Thank you very much. You are right, there are rough patches...Will work on them. :-)

[sheenabilly]

Hey Biju, This is the best of the lot....hard to believe that you didn't have professional training...looking forward to more of your work.

[donesis]

Thanks Sheena. I really wish I had some professional training on the guitar. Now it is difficult to understand the theoretical aspects, which I believe is essential for a complete understanding of music. But anyway so far so good. Yes I will keep you informed about new videos. In between shall post some vitreoretinal stuff also..

[sheenabilly]

Hey....theory can't be worse than macular dystrophies...I am sure you can do it.

[donesis]

Of course, Theoretical aspects of macular dystrophies can be really tough. That is why musical dystrophies like mine are easy:-). As in retinal surgery, I think the practical aspects are more important I guess. Thanks sheena

[donesis]

Thanks phil for the nice comments. Appreciate that very much. Actually I don't have any formal training in guitar. So technically it is not at all perfect. I pick up by ear only. Can't read notations or tabs. I like direstraits and have been picking up Sultans of swing in bits and pieces. I started playing this song may be in 1993-2000 period. Then had a long break till 2007 Jan when I picked up my strat again to brush up the old tunes. Thanks once again

[RayTheGuitar]

Very Nice ! I like the 'Alchemy' bit at end !

[donesis]

Hi Ray, Extremely happy to know that you liked it. I am seeing your other videos also. The blues one was awesome. I have left a comment also.

[Alinho]

That was great Donesis .,

Keep on the same work .,

I will look for some more videos of you .,

[donesis]

Thanks Alinho for the wonderful comments. Yes I will let you know when I post the next one.

[Trinita75]

Fantastic , one of the best in youtube sultans of swing.

[donesis]

Thanks very much for your kind comments. I appreciate that very much. For an amateur guitar player like me, this comment of yours is as great as a grammy award!!! Thank you very very much. Keep rockin'

[ritchieraju]

[rakhs27]
