    Perfect follow up to the lesson on the lead lines, thank you. The way that you explain and break it down into smaller pieces made it much easier to learn. It is one of my favorite songs and I never took the time to learn it until your video's. Excellent teaching along with extremely clean playing.

    I love it. I just finished watching the Get back documentary last night and I'm sure you have already seen it but if you haven't, it's a must see. The rooftop concert at the end of the film was incredible. They were such good performers and that would be the last time they ever performed together as a band. Very emotional 😢. I was a fan before watching this film but now I really appreciate them as a band and also as individuals.
