Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) - Cover

I first heard this on my child's CD, and had to learn it. And I threw in a Neil-Young-Inspired harmonica as there were no strings in the house. This version is in G.

hey love how you did this song you have the best sounding harmonic peice for this song I've seen could you please give me harmonica tabs for this thanks

[doofus0123]

thank you very much! I'm afraid I don't have any harmonica tabs - I learned it strictly by ear and by experimental blowing and inhaling into the harmonica until I got it okay.

[MikeHockislong]

well thanx anyway I'm gonna keep watchin your vid and try to figure it out myself. keep up the good work I will keep watchin your stuff

[doofus0123]

sounds good -- good luck!

[MikeHockislong]

are you playing a G harmonica?

[doofus0123]

yes -- that's a G harmonica (I'm playing the song in G on the guitar as well). But I suppose I shouldn't rule out the possibility that someone could play a song in one key and use a harmonica that's in a different key? that would be serious talent....

I love it, about $200 with case, has great sound, takes up very little space, is lightweight. The arm/hand/body angle is different cuz it's so small and thin. It has a "gig bag" type case (soft-sided) so that's not very protective, but it's ok for me; I usually just take mine on camping trips. If I ever took it on a plane I'd probably put it in the overhead bin (definitely would NOT check it). it's so easy to carry, the days I take a guitar to church, I usually take it.

thanks for watching!

i am thinking about getting one of the backpacker guitars for when i go on trips and stuff like that, is it really worth it?

[MKrock0]

martin backpacker. :)

[doofus0123]

Thanks! that's a Backpacker guitar, made by Martin Guitar Co. great to take on outings, smaller, weighs less, takes up less space, and has a decent sound too - when it's in tune....

[doofus0123]
