I love this version of Save A Prayer, I saw these guys in Melbourne, minus Andy of course, but the song was still a big hit for the night. Its amazing how many people do miss Andy, he is sorely missed, regardless of peoples opinions.
Andy is ok, but he has to be a pain as a colleage. Hes a good guitar player, but nothing else.... Duran Duran's music works better with Andy, but He has shown always how difficult is to work with him.
Very difficult no know, there is not even a clear shot on the headstock to look the brand or logo (for a while it seems to be the "Guild" logo). Besides, the fingerboard inlaids arent (sort of gull wings)very common.
Okay, for those who play guitare and want to learn this version as opposed to the LP version: I BELIEVE all Andy's actually doing is this: Start w/Dm. Slide to frets 5&6, Dm fingering, slide to 10&11 alternating Dm/D, slide down to 7&8, Dm again throwing in middle finger for a D. Alternate Dm and D on 10&11 and 7&8. Chorus: Bm, Dmaj7, G, F#m, A back to Bm. Beautiful on acoustic.
i agree with you dude. Ive listened to Duran Durans new album, Andy needs to be there. I understood why he left. Im a massive DD fan I'm very disappointed with this new album :(
i love this. Many ppl hate Andy but i love the guy. DD wont be the same without him. He was one of the guys who made DD. Best of luck to him though all the same
WOW WOW WOW!!! Simple rendition and simply one of the most beautiful Duran performances ever. God, if they would have done it this way on tour! Andy was so much of an afterthought to me... until now he's gone again. I wish him luck, but I wish him back!
Waooo, first time I see this video and version, It its just great! and very good ! Great combination of Andy and and great voice of Le Bon. By the way Andy is a very great guitar player .... find more about him :)
Its a fairly easy song to learn just from watching the video. The verse chords are Dm, F, Bbmaj7, G, C. The chorus chords are Bm, Dmaj7(or D), G, F#m, A (repeat as necessary). If you like the picking, use Dsus2 and progress to the 5 fret, then the 10th, then down to the 7th, and back again. Hopefully this helps!
I absolutely love this version. It has become one of my favorite songs to play now that I've learned it (not that it was that hard in the first place)
Ya se veia la distancia entre ellos, Andy rechaza el äbrazo^de Simon.Recuerdan lo que dijo una vez Simon en una entrevista? que Andy habia pedido un seguro de vida por si acaso Simon moria en un accidente navegando
Thanks for the post.
