I love the solo and thought I would do a search to see what was on here.

All I can say about this vid is wow!

I've listened and watched this about 12 times tonight because I thought it was brilliant and you made playing it look so easy!

Totally awesome!

Many Thanks ! And the Cheques in the post !!!

To add to my previous post. I agree with the other guy...re-do the video...drop the whammy, pay attention to the riff. Also...consider doing a "learn to do this riff" video...I'd love to learn it, as would others, I'm sure!

[RayTheGuitar]

I didn't think too much about it, i just played it on the spur of moment, in my own way ! If you and others want to hear it like the record ( without Whammy etc etc,) put on the RECORD instead !!!! Easy !!!!!!!!!!!

that carpenters solo is undoubtedly one of the best guitar solos ever and you just did it some amazing credit. well done!!

[RayTheGuitar]

Thanks for nice comment ! I might be getting a chance to play this 'live' shortly in a 'Gig' ... Cant wait !!!

Cheers for the response,Ray. Great to see you again,as always.You pay such a beautiful and highly-skilled tribute to such a legendary solo.(And your editing was also masterful - true genius).

If u go fckn that Wammy once more I will cut your fingers off and the whammy too . Nice job otherwise.Excellent.

[kennethmccarson]

How can you do this!? You never got the intention of the songs of the Carpenters, blame on you!

[DrHogfan]

@kagemane10 agree ... just redo w/ clearer video so us guitar hacks can steal your licks! haha...Other than that ...Very good!

@murc2691 are u irish ... u said doing me head in instead of my head ... lol which i do and im irish ... lol

[Cats4693]

i just wanted to say i love this song and u do it perfectly dont mind wot anyone else says ... u should do a tutorial video ... id actually pay you to teach me this song start to finnish via video .... and solo ... ur an amazing guitarist ... i hope to b great myself one day lol

[murc2691]

This is one of the best guitar solos i ever heard and you do it pretty damn good. Am trying to follow you note for note. Ive got to 0.37 so far but then those double bends are doing me head in. So ill plod on. Rome wasnt built in a day. Eh!

[kagemane10]

All I can say is wow! Nevermind those who says to 'redo the video', 'improve video camera quality' or 'use this or that. You did very well Sir, awesome cover/tribute. The best part is the honesty of artistically capturing all these in a video IN YOUR OWN WAY in a time when you really just like doing your own thang! :)

Kudos from a Karen Carpenter (and Tony Peluso) fan from the Philippines.

My Dad and Mom filled the house with The Carpenters' music as early as when I was around 7 years old. :D

I've always enjoyed one of pops favourite solos.
