Stardust (thumb-picked guitar)

Trying to play this beautiful song in my crude thumb-picking style. This is not, of course, a jazz-guitar interpretation (there are many fine versions in the Joe Pass style on YouTube). (I follow more or less the melody as sung by Kay Starr). With my apologies to jazz lovers, of course!

No apologies are needed. This is a fine performance of the old classic, and I'd say it belongs in the tradition of Chet and Jerry and Tommy. Keep up the fine work!

@TheJudplay

@samborambo664

Thank you so much, Samborambo664! I hope "musically incorrect" styles are allowed in Youtube; after all, no one is forced to watch. As long as the ears don't suffer much too much...

Nice done! Perfect length - about 1 minute. Thanks for making it not too long and boring, as youtubers usually like.

[Hikikomori013]

It sounds like the musically correct style to me.

Keep developing your own style. It sounds like it has a lot of potential.

Excellent job! I've just finished recording my own version. Yours is neat!

[RorraSan]

My god, I loved it so much ._.

This is a nice rendition. The only criticism I have is that you can't hear much of the bass stride at all. But it's beautiful regardless.
