i've had to put aside learning a new surf tune for a bit since i've got to learn the rhythm parts to about 30 tunes for the group i'm playing with. it's amazing how some seemingly simple songs, aren't. the two i'm working on right now are 'middle of the road' and 'magic man'. — |

I'm almost afraid to tell you because the last couple of times I did, something went horribly wrong and I couldn't play to get ready. But here goes. A Ventures medley. Rumble, Harlem Nocturn, Sealed With a Kiss, Lawrence of Arabia, In My Life, Paperback Writer, I Feel Fine and Back in the U.S.S.R. The Ventures recorded all these tunes. Really! The Beatles tunes are from a Japan-only Beatles record The Ventures recently released. Ironic, isn't it? And Phantom Mustang by The Intoxicators, Experiment in Terror (again) and will soon be starting on the Beach Boys' early hot rod and surf songs. I still don't play well, but I'm picking up tunes much quicker now and playing them better sooner as long as they're slow. My speed isn't as limited on rhythm guitar. But I'm still just a guy who can play some tunes on a guitar. I'm not yet a guitar player. Having more fun than ever! And I owe everyone here who's ever offered an encouraging word a hearty thank you. —This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got. Last edited: Jan 22, 2013 08:33:27 |

Thanks. I hope so. I debated including this, but I've agreed (Help!) to play rhythm guitar on a couple of tunes by Mojito in his long distance collaboration recording project. They're really good tunes and ... I think this is even scarier than playing Ventures tunes in front of Bob Spalding. —This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got.

Have you got some way of recording yourself at home with a drum machine (like garbageband)? This can help you with really drilling home the parts you want to record so you get used to playing precisely without mistakes. When you record you invariably make a few mistakes and have to re-take the tracks several times to get it sounding good. —He who dies with the most tubes... wins |
