    I tom I am 70s years old I had a heart operation two years ago so I had to stay home. After one year I had to do something with my life since I was recuperating from the surgery. So I decided to follow up on my dream that started when I was 15 years old to become a Lid guitar player..So I went to music school for two years, this is 55 years ago. The teacher always told me that I had the music in me and not to give up . But not long after that I and my family emigrated to Canada that was the end of my dream, till last year..Since I had much time on hand I bought a Stratocaster and started taking music lessons again..Then I discovered you, Tom, on youtube..Started lessening to your guitar and ( Man you are amesing ) I love lessening to your guitar and the songs you play ..So I started following you trying to keep up with you and slowly since last summer with the help of your Tabs I started playing my guitar and enjoying myself, and now I want to play like you or close. I now play over 30 songs and I am not giving up my music lessons..Any advice from you will be appreciated..Thank you, Tom. And I am proud to give you my membership....Ang

    I play this song a lot (it is really fun to play!), and come back here occasionally to make sure I have not strayed too far from your original. I have a few things I have slightly modified, along with the one section with the slides and hammer-ons due to a little arthritis, but mostly staying true. Doing quite well with Unchained Melody, but still having a hard time not making a mistake or two (this was/is a tough song for me!) At least I am now able to cover them so that my audience can't really tell. I have also completed several other songs of yours and now working on Because and Secret Agent Man. Thanks for all the work you put into your covers with tabs and backing tracks which I think are the best on UA-cam. I can't imagine how much time you put into them!

  • @sgd5k292
    @sgd5k292 4 роки тому +1

    Now that I have 2 of your songs down pretty good, I printed out and pasted up the tabs for Runaway and was up to around 3 AM this morning having a blast with the much faster pace than Sleepwalk and Summer Place. This is the first song that I am totally learning on my new guitar, a HAZE Jazzmaster copy instead of a Stratocaster VG and boy does it come close to looking and sounding just like your Jazzmaster. Makes it that much more fun! Thanks again for posting your incredible collection of great songs!

    Ordered and received backing tracks #3 and started with Runaway. Reminds me of the times when my band was learning new songs....Gosh, those first sessions started off terribly, but as we practiced we got better and better and this is exactly what I am going through now. With Sleepwalk, I kept the first recording I played with your backing track and had my wife listen to it and told her that was exactly what the band sounded like with our first attempt at a new song. She thought it was pretty funny. Man, that was fun! Thanks!!

    Well, I am now doing pretty well following you at 75% of speed with just a few mistakes. I have also upgraded my Haze HSJA Jazzmaster with Schaller locking tuners and an AVRI Fender tremolo and this thing is playing really great. If I had known that I would like a Jazzmaster this much, I would have purchased one years ago. I loved my Tele and Strats, but this JM, I can't keep my hands off of it! I still might buy a Fender like yours eventually, but I would like to play one to see if it is really that much better. Anyway, I have downloaded Unchained Melody and started to work on it today. Thanks for all you have done and please be safe!
