Nice, dude. I just learned this song as well, but I like the tone. You do something just a little different than I do on the "...never going back again" part, but I like it. Really nicely played, man. Honestly, if I were to see you walk down the street, I would never think you played guitar, let alone play it well. Don't ever stop, man.
Mothra at first thought you were playing a joke as the sound is so big and heavy...like you were doing "air guitar". But then Mothra recognized and respects your skill. What yummy clean playing and beautiful transposition of the material. Mothra bows respectfully...!
Excellent!!! I'm diggin' all your cool video clips. Please let me know what your signal chain from the guitar to amp is. It's a very good sound for this material.
Cool, I've been learning this one on & off for a while now. I think I'll put my back into it & get it nailed. It's not an easy song by any means, so well done on such a fluid & schillachi version!
This is fucking beautiful! Ive listened to this a million times its so amazing im a big fan of that CD from Fleet wood Mac just that CD though lol and your version is so delightfully plesent i do say :D
did you ever happen to have guitar lessons in Coopers Music do you? it's just i noticed gorseinon in your tags and i have my drum lessons there, besides your probably too good to still be having lessons anyway. oh and by the way this video was great!
For what it's worth, I think I have played this clip more than any other youtube song. Love it, great playing, great guitar. More of that sort of thing!
The original is actually on the 6th fret with the Low E string dropped to C and the A string dropped to G. It's called Wahine C Tuning or Dropped C tuning.
That is one very nice sound you have going there. This one of those youtube excellences that I cut the plug off my television for. Love it. Thanks so much for sharing, for the uplift and for making me want to learn how to play.
Hey Simon, where's your capo???? Just kidding, you obviously are doing great without one. I've been playin this song for years off of "Rumors". However I notice that there's an extra part some people play that's not on Rumors. Can anyone tell me where this version comes from?
Really, really good. you even nailed the new middle part that lindsay has been playing. A request: play it again with a capo. Also when your playing the high part up the neck there are two different rhythms however you are just playing one. The second rhythm leaves a bit less time between chords and adds more interest.
Really, really nice. My favorite interpretation. I love the the changing emphasis on the bass strings, really slapping em hard at times to give dynamics. Beauty.
You Play this well - only comment I have is the dominant 13th chord (A7 basically with the F# added) the flurry of melody notes should begin on beat 2 - you're playing them on beat 1 - which is fine and is easier to play - watch the Lindsey clips. Rob130290 's comments I disagree with - you play the chorus section great - even if you miss the alternating bass lines. Well Done
Call this constructive criticism if you want, but you're playing the chorus wrong, Lindsey frets the 4th string on the 7th fret above the capo etc, and then plays the bass line like so: 6th string, 4th, 5th, 4th, 6th, 4th, 5th, 4th etc.
Damn good...and without a capo!!! Your playing really reminds me of my own. A word of advice from a similar player.....NEVER fight...walk away,protect your hands.
I have this guitar and it kicks fuckin ass. Its a godin multiac nylon duet. about a $1,500.00 dollar guitar. The sound when plugged in just resonates with tone, quality and craftsmanship. Definately a premium sounding guitar and definately worth the money if you like classical or electracoustics.
hey simon, i jsut started to play a guitar, i have a question :) what kind of guitar itis? "spoon" electric? but i can't see any sensors (you know what i am talking about)
I dig it!
