    I gave this a thumbs up because it was John (by God) Sebastian. More 'n 50 years since Woodstock and he still looks great.

      I think it´s an old video. You can see how he looks nowadays in the movie "Echo in the canyon" about the middle ´60´s music.

    Loved you in Woodstock. I wish you had played autoharp for Woodstock. I loved what you played and I am glad you can play other instruments.

      Wish he would visit Atlanta. I am too broke to visit him anywhere. I have nonprofit. Fear Thou Not. I also tell people about Autoharp Angels. Google it.

    Very useful tutorial. Thank you for putting it on. I already had the DVD and that was very useful too.

    Hi John, I love all the music you have created for us. I loved the Lovin Spoonful and I loved your solo work. My favorite song is "The Room Nobody Lives In".

      Do you think this an American thing only? Bc my mum trained to be a teacher in the USA and she learned the autoharp, but all my music teachers in Canada, growing up, played either guitar or piano to accompany/teach us. I've never seen a teacher play an autoharp as a result.

    Y'all do know this was just a sampler video, right? And that John hasn't looked like that in 30 years. ;) And yes, he did write the theme song for Welcome Back, Kotter.

    Does anyone know if this includes any Lovin' Spoonful songs? I can't find any mention of that on Homespun's site, and there's no way to ask on the Amazon page for the DVD.

    Mine is labelled wrong? I tuned it according to how it told me to but "FM" sounds a lot like C#m7 D:

    • @queenhenryviii
      @queenhenryviii 3 роки тому +2

      Well, F# is just inverted C#m7. Think about it like this man, a C#m7 is comprised of C#, E G# and B and the F# 2nd inversion is made up C#, F# and A.... The key of C#m contains the notes F# and A which is 66.66% (SATAN!) of an F# that's why it sounds similar.
