Black Sabbath - Paranoid - cover - full song + solo

Black Sabbath - Paranoid.
Backing track from GuitarBT :- http://www.guitarbt.com/index.php?page=dl_list
Thanks to doctornerve for the amazing lesson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=io_L-QAtE0g&feature=PlayList&p=7EDAD09...
He has done several great lessons so maybe more Black Sabbath on the way!

I can't believe I messed up the opening intro [ D'oh!! ] but my wife says that it makes it my own version so I'm happy with that !! I found doing the full song and solo at 100% speed in one take a challenge. This is the best of a few different takes.
Please rate and make constructive comment. :-)

This was recorded 15 August about 8 months after starting to learn to play lead electric guitar (after years of just chords 'n' stuff) using the lessons from Justin Sandercoe (thanks!) on his amazing website justinguitar.com - http://www.justinguitar.com/

Solo in E minor pentatonic.

Equipment: Yamaha SG400, Vox VT15 preset model, recorded on Sony Digital 8 Handycam.

Quite basic. Improvise and play it louder.

[MrClose2u]

@zlEpiphoneSheraton it took all my time to nearly learn it and at the time - probably still - I don't have the skills to improvise on a fast rock track ... louder .. if only ... small room in a semi-detached house!

[zlEpiphoneSheraton]

@MrClose2u Yeah I don't meant to be rude, but you should perfect the track before performing it. Fair enough. :)

[MrClose2u]

@zlEpiphoneSheraton I know what you're saying ... but I am an amateur bedroom strummer and these vids are mainly for fun and to record learning progress and maybe get some tips / guidance on improving. I'm not trying to show off my prowess.

[MrClose2u]

@zlEpiphoneSheraton No, not fair and I really don't agree. You honestly rhink that the only people that should post music videos online are those that have mastered the songs - to a professional standard?

That's not right.

You gotta leave room for all of us mere mortals that are still learning and just having fun!

[zlEpiphoneSheraton]

@MrClose2u No, not at all. But why show the world an unfinished piece? Makes it seem like a pointless project in the first place. Nah I understand what your saying though, If your just having a bit of fun then there's nothing wrong with that.

[MrClose2u]

@zlEpiphoneSheraton Well we kind of reached some agreement there - that's good. This was as finished as I was able to make it at the time of recording with the skills I had practiced and developed then. So not perfect, but as good as I could get it without spending hours and hours and hours on the same 20 seconds of lead guitar! Sometimes you've just gotta know when to move on and learn from something fresh! lol
