@@SEB-EDIT Never did I expect a response to my notes. I have told two SD enthusiasts of what you are creating on UA-cam. In a day or two I will contact them to get their reaction. My name is Jeffrey, and I live 20 kilometers from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It is a typical “rust belt” town on the Allegheny River. The last time I drove through Montreal I was on my way to Mont Tremblant to do some skiing. But, my friend SEBEDIT, my mother was born in Massena, NY. She went to college in Potsdam. When my father returned from Japan after WWII, he enrolled in an engineering program at the Clarkson College of Technology, which is also in Potsdam, NY. My mother and father met at a dance hall in Potsdam, and were soon married. After two years of college in Potsdam, my newlywed parents moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where my father continued his studies at Carnegie School of Technology, which is now Carnegie-Mellon University. My sister was born in 1950, and she now lives near Daytona Beach, Florida. I was born in 1953, and except living in western New York for 8 years, I have made Natrona Heights, Pennsylvania my home. But I have cousins, nieces and nephews living in and around the Adirondack Mountains. I too enjoy the final two SD albums. I love the first four songs on Everything Must Go. I read Donald Fagen watched his mother die a slow and painful death. That experience is somewhat veiled in the song “Godwhacker.” Once again, all of us who have discovered your SD productions on UA-cam owe you a debt of gratitude. I agree, you would be the perfect rhythm guitarist in a Steely Dan tribute band. But don’t sell yourself short. As evidence of your hard work and boundless dedication to SD, I am confident you could work the solos and the fills. On tour, Jon Harington did a fine job. But it certainly would be a challenge to replicate the licks of guys like Jay Graydon and Larry Carlton. I have always loved the guitarist of TOTO, Steve Lukather. My wife Lynda and I had the fortune to attend three shows in two years. For one concert we purchased VIP tickets, allowing us to hang out for sound check, a question and answer session, and photos. Lukather told me he always wanted to play with SD. But Luke is now guitarist for Ringo Starr’s All-Star Band. If this damn virus gets under control, the All Starr Band should be in Pittsburgh in June, before the new TOTO heads to Europe. I am the one who is flattered by you responding to my comments. I rarely comment, but what you have done, what you are doing, and what you plan to do is a gift most of us hardly deserve. I’m offering you and a companion an all expenses paid visit to our home. But Lynda and I would ask you to play. We can work on details when the boarders open and the virus is behind us. Please pardon me for writing on and on, but it is your fault. There was, and still is, so much to ask and to say. Kindest regards, Jeffrey erstwhile@microconnect.net
@@MrFarkoshWOW thank you for this invitation MrFarkosh./Jeffrey ;^) ♪ I guess I'd be thrilled and would accept the invitation to visit and play some music too. ;^) ♪ But there are two things in life that I truly have passion for, and they both start with the letter G it's; Guitar + Golf (I play in the low 70's if it wasn't for winter, I'd be on tour...lol...) ;^) ♪ Oh yeah... I would add a third thing with the letter S; it's alpine Skiing too. More of a muggle specialist, jumps and action. Had tons of hard falls but never broke anything; lucky and quite reckless too. But I have always made a skiing day eventful and adventurous. ;^) ♪ My last real reckless skying highlight two years ago was at this tremendously beautiful ski hill " Le Massif " in Charlevoix, where at the previously authorized descent of the day by the ski patrols (since I had for the first time a pair Twin Tips Skis), I took a challenge with my fellow snowboard friends that I'd be the first down the hill by skiing backward! My legs were absolutely burned, but I was the first at the bottom of the hill though...lol.. ;^) ♪ I live 40 minutes from Mont-Tremblant (closer to MTL) in a very charming wintery village called Ste-Marguerite-du-Lac-Masson. Fun fact; the first north-American ski slope was born here in Ste-Marguerite. skimuseum.ca/Chawkers%20articles/Emile%20Cochand%20II%20(March%202010).pdf Mont-Tremblant is nice, but this long flat part and their pricey fees take a lot of my buzz out. ;^) ♪ But "Le Massif," you have to go there once. It's higher, no flat spots, + the snow and view are outstanding. ;^) ♪ Anyway, my point is that I saw there are a few golf courses near Natrona Heights ; the Brackenridge and the Hill Crest golf courses, so I hope you and Lynda play golf too? ;^) ♪ As far as my SD dedication and the tedious hard work I provide in this UA-cam world, it's a win-win-win situation for me.

Thanks a bunch for the inspiration, and when I find the way, I won't be shy of letting you know first! Lol..! ;^) ♪
Till then, enjoy the practicing process. BTW I'll be publishing "PEG" within the next two days! So stay tuned for some more fun. ;^) ♪
Peace sir ;^) ♪

@@SEB-EDIT Peg is one of my favs.
I took the instrumental part ~2:13-2:47 of this classic and looped it so it lasts long enough to get into some good vamping, and get a couple shots of the good shit. What a groove!! I do have to say I have trouble watching fingers contort like yours. Still.. nice work!!
Just a crude observation but one I have often mentioned to people and they look at me like I'm crazy. All the gangbangers and their twisted hand signs... Imagine if they only chose to play the guitar with hands that can dance like that?
Have a great day!
Greetings, Mr. FX Rider ;^) ♪
Indeed, this fine Columbian musical passage/loop is quite groovy, and tasty. ♪
(IMO) as much as I think that I deliver and work hard on providing the cleverest and easiest chord voicing path,
to get as much as the song provides harmonically, bass, melody, structure, and so on...
Heck, it's Steely Dan, they barely ever (at least the seven last albums) use any conventional power chords
(cowboy chords (lol..) in their masterfully crafted and complex compositions.♪
And, in that passage, you've practiced, there's even a chord symbol mistake,
it should have been an A7b9, instead of just A7.
What about and/or how would you go about simplifying the chorus and/or the bridge's chord progression, too?
Their song has more often than less, over 35 chord voicing changes on average.
It's quite an undertaking my friend.♪
----------------------------------------
In the end (if you don't suffer from any arthritis), what stops you from practicing them
as an exercise within itself (at your own pace), at 75% or even 50% of the original playback speed
(UA-cam settings). It's mind-boggling the guitar skills improvements it provides.♪
Before showing off my interpretation on any of my tutorials, you have no idea how much practice
I put into them before filming and recording myself for visual examples. (there are no short-cuts) ♪
---------------------------------
Nonetheless, I vowed to revisit "Hey Nineteen" one day, correct it,
add more nonfinger twisters guitar chord options (like I do today in my last two videos/lessons),
and adapt to what is my satisfactory format I have today three years later since I've done this version.♪
-------------------------------
Though I have a decent English knowledge, I'm mainly French-Canadian speaking,
everybody is entitled to their respectful and civil opinions, but what is so crude about your observation,
I'm not sure to understand the significance of "gangbangher and their twisted fingers"...♪

@@SEB-EDIT Never did I expect a response to my notes. I have told two SD enthusiasts of what you are creating on UA-cam. In a day or two I will contact them to get their reaction. My name is Jeffrey, and I live 20 kilometers from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It is a typical “rust belt” town on the Allegheny River. The last time I drove through Montreal I was on my way to Mont Tremblant to do some skiing. But, my friend SEBEDIT, my mother was born in Massena, NY. She went to college in Potsdam. When my father returned from Japan after WWII, he enrolled in an engineering program at the Clarkson College of Technology, which is also in Potsdam, NY. My mother and father met at a dance hall in Potsdam, and were soon married. After two years of college in Potsdam, my newlywed parents moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where my father continued his studies at Carnegie School of Technology, which is now Carnegie-Mellon University. My sister was born in 1950, and she now lives near Daytona Beach, Florida. I was born in 1953, and except living in western New York for 8 years, I have made Natrona Heights, Pennsylvania my home. But I have cousins, nieces and nephews living in and around the Adirondack Mountains. I too enjoy the final two SD albums. I love the first four songs on Everything Must Go. I read Donald Fagen watched his mother die a slow and painful death. That experience is somewhat veiled in the song “Godwhacker.”
Once again, all of us who have discovered your SD productions on UA-cam owe you a debt of gratitude. I agree, you would be the perfect rhythm guitarist in a Steely Dan tribute band. But don’t sell yourself short. As evidence of your hard work and boundless dedication to SD, I am confident you could work the solos and the fills. On tour, Jon Harington did a fine job. But it certainly would be a challenge to replicate the licks of guys like Jay Graydon and Larry Carlton.
I have always loved the guitarist of TOTO, Steve Lukather. My wife Lynda and I had the fortune to attend three shows in two years. For one concert we purchased VIP tickets, allowing us to hang out for sound check, a question and answer session, and photos. Lukather told me he always wanted to play with SD. But Luke is now guitarist for Ringo Starr’s All-Star Band. If this damn virus gets under control, the All Starr Band should be in Pittsburgh in June, before the new TOTO heads to Europe.
I am the one who is flattered by you responding to my comments. I rarely comment, but what you have done, what you are doing, and what you plan to do is a gift most of us hardly deserve. I’m offering you and a companion an all expenses paid visit to our home. But Lynda and I would ask you to play. We can work on details when the boarders open and the virus is behind us.
Please pardon me for writing on and on, but it is your fault. There was, and still is, so much to ask and to say.
Kindest regards,
Jeffrey

@@MrFarkoshWOW thank you for this invitation MrFarkosh./Jeffrey
;^) ♪
I guess I'd be thrilled and would accept the invitation to visit and play some music too. ;^) ♪
But there are two things in life that I truly have passion for, and they both start with the letter G
it's; Guitar + Golf (I play in the low 70's if it wasn't for winter, I'd be on tour...lol...) ;^) ♪
Oh yeah... I would add a third thing with the letter S; it's alpine Skiing too. More of a muggle specialist, jumps and action. Had tons of hard falls but never broke anything; lucky and quite reckless too. But I have always made a skiing day eventful and adventurous. ;^) ♪
My last real reckless skying highlight two years ago was at this tremendously beautiful ski hill
" Le Massif " in Charlevoix, where at the previously authorized descent of the day by the ski patrols (since I had for the first time a pair Twin Tips Skis),
I took a challenge with my fellow snowboard friends that I'd be the first down the hill by skiing backward! My legs were absolutely burned,
but I was the first at the bottom of the hill though...lol.. ;^) ♪
I live 40 minutes from Mont-Tremblant (closer to MTL) in a very charming wintery village called Ste-Marguerite-du-Lac-Masson. Fun fact;
the first north-American ski slope was born here in Ste-Marguerite. skimuseum.ca/Chawkers%20articles/Emile%20Cochand%20II%20(March%202010).pdf
Mont-Tremblant is nice, but this long flat part and their pricey fees take a lot of my buzz out. ;^) ♪
But "Le Massif," you have to go there once. It's higher, no flat spots, + the snow and view are outstanding. ;^) ♪
Anyway, my point is that I saw there are a few golf courses near Natrona Heights ;
the Brackenridge and the Hill Crest golf courses, so I hope you and Lynda play golf too? ;^) ♪
As far as my SD dedication and the tedious hard work I provide in this UA-cam world, it's a win-win-win situation for me.
'Cause I do it; FIRSTLY for my learning purposes (my own musical note references) and by accomplishing/finishing a tutorial,
I really know the song by heart (If not, I just have to go in my channel to refresh my memory) ;^) ♪
#2- I constantly improve my skills with " After Effects" (the animation editing software I use). ;^) ♪
#3- I seem to fill many musicians' needs (like me), agonizing over demystifying their smooth/sophisticated compositions. ;^) ♪
I sincerely enjoy the enjoyment of the people enjoying it. So it's all worth it. ;^) ♪

*Hey Nineteen* was my third tutorial in 2019 two years and a half ago more or less,
I have gained much experience since now that I'm at 38 tutorials now.♪
My animations and graphics demands a tremendous amount of labor,
and during my beginnings, I did cut some corners short because it was never-ending.♪
-------------------------------------------------------
Now near 2023, I truly enjoy my graphic format and matured template to undergo my future work.
Therefore I intend one day to revisit *Hey Nineteen*, and update it,
add the solos, and why not correct a few chords. (I'd like to know exactly
what chords or corrections you're mentioning and that you'd suggest?) ♪
And if read in all my descriptions, I'm just a starting point portal for musical folks,
for them to break the ice, and have the courage to undergo learning their songs more in-depth♪
I tend to love to emulate the piano voicings often, because I play alone and with more full sound,
by possibly adding the basslines, main triads, and melodies as possible.♪
The perfect exactitude should be left for you all to find on your own
once the most important basics of the songs are acquired.?♪
Peace, sir, stay tuned, the best is yet to come. Respect ;^) ♪
