I just got your book and I love it. I really enjoy your UA-cam tutorials as well. I’m working on 20 Flight rock and Summertime Blues. Eddie Cochran was so cool.
So glad you mentioned the ebook. I have now purchased. Fantastic book and loving the tutorials. Great teaching and very enjoyable singing. Thanks so much
I think the strum pattern graphic is missing an upstroke between beat 2 and 3 (the same upstroke shown after 4). Great video, just ordered the book. I'm going to do this song at my second attempt of an open mic, tonight.
Hi Jez. I'm close to playing that song. A few more hours and I'll have it. I saw numerous covers that you have on UA-cam. I'm hoping that you can provide us with more Tutorials. Take your pick.
Great lesson! Could you please do some Apartment tapes lessons? Those are great acoustic pieces, with great strumming. Would love to learn those. Best wishes
That’s correct. 👍 Like this: ua-cam.com/video/QeM9VB0hFLw/v-deo.htmlsi=1_WbRRFnMRv7zbBN This is an easy rhythm guitar version. Although, it is how Buddy’s rhythm guitarist, Niki Sullivan played it on the Ed Sullivan show.
@@RocknRollSongbook Yes. :) It makes it easier to play the intro and the solo by using E shapes. I struggled at first to play it using A shapes - I believe Hank Marvin, (according to Bruce Welsh) also found it harder in A but managed it of course. :) Then I found out about the capo and it was a piece of cake. The same thing applies to Well Alright in F#.
Great video! You are the best, Jez. Been a fan since 2016. Just ordered the book & looking forward to doing all of it. I want to ask a favor. Can you please do a video tutorial of Red River Rock by Johnny and the Hurricanes? It seems simple but somehow the beat escapes me. I'll bet you can teach it better than anyone.
Thanks very much Bill! That's a great record. So far on this channel I haven't taught any instrumentals. I tend to focus on songs that can be played on one guitar. Tunes like 'Red River Valley really relay on having a band ...or at least a couple of players. 😊
Jez can you do Mr blue by the Fleetwood's.... Really love this song... Just need the main man rockin jez to teach me...... Great job still struggling to sing and play but its a lot easier when I'm following you...hope your well
@@RocknRollSongbook ha brilliant. I think because that Elvis movie is out more people are wanting and asking for more Elvis tunes. Keep up the good work cheers
Many tanks for this tutorial I bought 3 months ago the mini Taylor,samedi as yours ,it’s a very goog guitare Now i’m looking at your Gibson,what is the model? Thanks you again
Hey Jez great cover as always. Hope you are doing well. You doing ok with the heat ? Maybe do Folsom Prison Blues and See Ya Later Alligator!!!! Thank you and Keep Rockin !!!
Thanks very much Todd! Yes, the hot weather we had here in England a couple of weeks ago was a killer, but things have cooled down since. Thanks for the song requests. I love 'Folsom Prison Blues', but I can't decide if it fits into my '1950s rock 'n' roll / rockabilly' channel specialisation. I've been meaning to do 'See You Later Alligator' for a while.
(From France) - Hello Jez, you asked us if we have sorts of rock songs to propose. So, Can you try one in France please ? :-) Try a song From "les forbans": titles: "tape des mains" or " lève ton fut de là" or " Flip Flap".... " Hot dog".. or the famous "Chante" !!! I received your song's Book on the march 7, at home . Good job ! Pierre-Emmanuel
Thanks for the requests Pierre-Emmanuel. I'm not familiar with those songs, but I'll check them out. I think you'll find my French pronunciation pretty terrible though! 😆
Hi David. I’ve never taught singing. I’m not really sure where I’d begin with that. But I’m flattered that you think I’m good enough. I’ve never been too confident about my own singing actually. It’s something I’ve had to work on over the years. I suppose I’d say: the more you sing, the better you’ll get. The voice uses muscles that need exercise. And also, pick songs that suit your singing range: there’s no point in struggling to sing in the key of the original record if the notes are out of your range. Most Buddy Holly songs suit my range, but I have to transpose most Elvis songs down.
I already know how to play the rythym style of "That'll be the Day" as I worked as a Buddy Holly impersonator. But this song is very week if you do not know and play the intrumental part at the beginning of this song. You really need to learn to play the into licks as this song is very empty without this. To bad you did not show or teach this instrumental beginning as I would have like to see this
@@RocknRollSongbook you're welcome. I'll try that on my Squier classic vibe 50s Stratocaster two tone sunburst after I get it as my Christmas present this year and I'll show you😄
Gteat, sounds so authentic and nice
Thanks very much!
Soon as I get my paycheck im gonna buy your book! Love your videos!

Great lesson! Could you please do some Apartment tapes lessons? Those are great acoustic pieces, with great strumming. Would love to learn those. Best wishes
Great cover Guys :)
Thanks very much Peter!
I think Buddy Holly played this with a capo on the 5th fret and played E
shapes.

Thanks Patrick! I don’t know that one by the Fleetwoods. I’ll check it out.

Thanks!
Fantastic thanks 😀. Hey Jez, a nice Elvis mash-up would be good 3 or 4 songs into 1 . Cheers
Thanks very much! I've been thinking about doing that ...great minds.

Good day, sir. Can you make a tutorial for “Nowhere to run” by Martha and Vandellas please? Really like that song and your tutorials!
Many tanks for this tutorial
I bought 3 months ago the mini Taylor,samedi as yours ,it’s a very goog guitare
Now i’m looking at your Gibson,what is the model?
Thanks you again
Oh yes, I love my GS Mini. The Gibson I’ve been playing recently is an L00 Studio. Smallish, but still nice and loud. 😄
Great job thank you. Your guitar sounds great too. Can you let us know what make and gauge strings are on it? Thank you
Thanks very much! I'm using .012 to .054 Martin strings.
@@RocknRollSongbook Thank you for the info!
Please do the same for roll over bethoven. I would love to be able to play it with open chords.
Thanks for the request Pedro. I’ll do it. 😃 It may take me a little while to get around to it though.
Thank you. I can hardly wait.😀

Here's a tutorial I recorded last year: ua-cam.com/video/QeM9VB0hFLw/v-deo.html that should be what you're looking for
Poezja.
Dziękuję Ci!
What model of a Gibson do you play Jez ?
I’m playing a Gibson L00 Studio in this video.
how about a modern rockin' ballad from go cat go lonesome road can play and sing it but the solo not so good
Wow there is Indonesian subtitle
That’s good to know! 👍
Hi, what model of guitar is that?
It's a Gibson L00 Studio (walnut). I also have an L00 Standard - sounds a little different. I love these smaller guitars.
👍
Thanks very much Tim! Is there a song or two in particular that you'd like me to make a tutorial for next?

‘No more monkey business’
‘Roll over Beethoven’
Thanks Jez
Thanks for the requests Tim! I think I'll do 'Roll Over Beethoven' first.
💎💎👍👍🎸🎸
Thanks very much!
Great job but I thought I heard 4 chords!?
Thanks! Yes, that's correct. As I say in the video, the song is played with 4 main chords (A, D, E & B7), but I throw in a couple more (A7 & A6).
