You Can't Go Home Again

This was taken from the Adagio from Rachmaninov's 2nd Symphony. Recorded by the late great Chet Baker. Sergei composed it in 3 sharps but Chet plays it in 5 flats. A horrible key for guitarists! I went with 5 flats.

Pretty Les Paul you got there John. That would be a bitch to read for me. Nice playing and sound my friend!

Cheers for that pal! Appreciate it! ...Are you still posting?.. Not seen any of your stuff recently. Maybe just missed it?
(The L.P. is a '74.).
Aye.. Db! . The most horrible key for guitarists! Very uncomfortable..
I went for it tho cos that's
the key Chet Baker chose.
Fckn horn players!
Actually Rachmaninov composed it in 3 sharps!..A major. Now that's a guitarist key!! 😀

@@johnrutherford3309 I've been playing mostly electric lately and I got bored with the acoustic groups on Facebook. Not much on supporting those that in my opinion shouldn't post until they get a bit better. And oddly enough, I don't find that those folks are looking to learn from more experienced people so.... I post on my own FB and also here on UA-cam.

@@TheGrass-Hopperz I know what you mean. It's a bit like they have a guitar hanging on the wall as an ornament.. which they occasionally pick up ..to play the same old tune over again. Then..the light bulb moment......I think I'll make a video!
