[@jimb9014]

One of my favourite songs when first released. I've finally learned over 50 years later how to play it properly from my favourite tutor. Thanks again.

[@rolandsamodal9362]

You really brought tears to my eyes. You've inspired me to pick up the guitar and start playing again. Thank you.

[@georgetaylor6258]

Marty, Love this song and you show what makes it so distinctive. I downloaded guitar tab sheet music but struggled. You show how to do it. Looking forward to practicing this. Thanks soo much.

[@loribenson230]

this is so helpful, thank you so much! I am trying to figuring out the step down part and keep stopping to catch what you're doing, I think I'm getting it --really appreciate how you teach.

[@MrRocknrolldad]

Marty, love your videos and the entertaining way you present the lessons. You are a great player and very inspiring and encouraging to people wanting to learn.

[@philvdb7724]

Hello ! Just a few words to tell you that I am an "absolute" beginner with guitar and that my goal with it is mainly to play Donovan's songs, whom I am a big fan. And thank's to you, I'm on my way ! You're a very good teacher and, moreover, very sympathic ! Thank you ! (from France)

[@GuitarJamzOfficial]

ahh so glad to hear you got them!!! thanks again for the support!!! I really appreciate it.

[@kevinbennett404]

I owe this man so much , thanks Marty..Now I can play anywhere with confidence..you got me through some difficult time in life..I love my guitar

[@Genwaworldwide]

Thanks Marty from doing this song. It's one of real great old folk songs and needs to be kept alive. Love your lessons. JON M

[@MrCretemaniam]

Such a wonderful teacher and explains everything in great detail thank you so much

[@denisem9407]

Great lesson. As a beginner who's struggling with small hands this lesson really helps since the song books have bar chords I can't handle. Your lesson is very easy to follow so thank you.

[@shangtsung6498]

It helps alot if you tune your guitar a half step down. There will be less tension on the strings so it will be more comfortable to make chords. Especially if you are a beginner…

[@colauty2598]

Cheers Marty, all these years, on " try and catch the wind," I was chording C F C G C .. that run down nails it, more distinctive. thank you !!

[@GuitarJamzOfficial]

sweet, so thankful for your support!!! thx again

[@grahamewebber4038]

Thanks Marty a lot of great info in this lesson, especially for beginners wanting more. This song is a great example of how a few simple chords strummed and picked with thought can create such a beautiful tune.👍

[@johnnavarro19]

Thanks for the lesson and the way it's presented vary detailed and step paced slowly mutch appreciated

[@brianmooney9521]

I’ve been wanting to try this for ages . Thank you ! Brian . Northumberland . Uk .

[@annanikia7949]

I love coming across your lessons. This was a great one. I adore this song and you illustrate and explain the technique in a way that gives me confidence that I might actually play it like that one day! Coincidentally, there was a link to a live 1960's performance of it by Donovan on the page. Going to revisit that magic right now to observe and listen to what you have just taught! Thanks, great stuff!

[@rohockenberry68]

Marty...thanks for the lesson...just played it for the first time yesterday...the strum lesson really helps...

[@donaldsavage3699]

Marty you're the man, you make a song so easy to play! thanks brother.

[@1taylorgibson]

An outstanding lesson in technique on a pretty pretty song. You have the best strum Marty. Thanks.

[@edo_moya]

[@bobmc42]

Hey Marty, Just got your new DVD in the mail today. I love being a lifetime member and getting all your new dvd's as soon as they come out. Keep em coming!!

[@svaphrodite]

So, what REALLY caught my eye is the Midnight Sun Brewing t-shirt :) My favorite brewery here in Anchorage! I liked the lesson too :)

[@davidbentley7102]

I appreciate your patience to share your talent. Very easy to follow you compared to some others offering guitar. Thanks so so much!

[@lindseystraus9055]

Great. I am getting back into guitar after a long time away, or at least a long time not really paying attention to my strumming. This one was very, very helpful! Thanks!

[@sannesley]

Marty what Guitar are you using for the tutorial? Looks rockin

[@stayalivesweetheart]

I cannot believe how simple you just made this! thank you so much~!

[@dontgoout1434]

It is simple

[@Rubyroseboehme]

[@brucelevine6517]

Dear Marty your videos are a wonderful way I witch the average man or woman can ENJOY their instrument and bring joy into the lives of many your contribution to society is some thing to be praised carry on brother 👍❤️

[@LeeEisenstein]

Another great lesson, as always! Mahalo for making a video of this beautiful song.

[@dommcloughlin8436]

Brilliantly done and gone in great detail and made look simple to follow great teaching manner

[@johnporter9416]

Great lesson Marty been trying to get to grips with this song on and off for a long time, I think i have it licked now thanks to you

[@musicisbrilliant]

TRULY helpful Marty. Youre probably the best teacher Ive found. Thanks again so much!

[@blaksu]

This is very helpful. Thanks very much. One thing I've noticed that you can do, on the second C on the verses momentarily take the pinky off the top string and let the E note (well actually the G note as it's capo 3) ring out. It matches with the vocal, when he sings 'uncertainty'.

[@kenarrowsmith7130]

Thanks for teaching me to learn "Catch The Wind your an excellent teacher and guitar player, i will carry on practising. All The Best Ken. ( Chester UK )

[@dontgoout1434]

Hes ok no big deal find a local guitar folk dude all donovan stuffs easy mate

[@dontgoout1434]

[@liberatorful]

Thanks for a great lesson, Marty. Now it's making sense.

[@Warriortattoo]

Hay buddy I got this song OK, but the walkdowns in the intro ect any chance of breaking down walkdowns in/out of chords. Spicy flav yeah x

[@TluvSmith-ri8cj]

What d u recommend

[@EarNoodles]

Thanks this really helped me with the little nuances beyond just which chord is used.

[@GuitarJamzOfficial]

bptravbrad thank you!

[@kamikaze2613]

bptravbrad is

[@iheartqueso]

Great lesson! Been trying to figure out how to do all the fancy stuff for a while now and now I know!

[@johnbrattan9341]

Marty, you're the best. If anything, the capo. I know its necessary i guess to follow the a truthful rendition. I've been playing this song for many years and never used capo. Everybody sang along. Love your lessons. Capos...can we ever do without them. (makes it easier for the piano player)

[@dontgoout1434]

Donovan used a schubb capo not necceassary just to meet the singers pitch its a teen level song very easy lacks explanation indeed your right .hes out as the level you see and happy .go fuether find top guys in folk clubs mate . Cal reason folk blues legend.

[@nicholaspage8193]

Thanks Marty! One I my favorite songs.

[@bulltastik]

You're right Marty...that was "pretty"! Thanks for the lesson

[@cRy7eKz]

[@MrSuzuki1187]

Perfectly done! Thanks

[@jaybulmer4077]

Marty you ledgend you have got me from a three chord strummer to having a decent go thanks mate if you ever on gold coast Australia let's jam my name Jay Jay

[@kissofdeathisraja]

great lesson as always marty. you seem to hold the pick at an angle to the string - is it because you want to get the pick's krch-krch sound?

[@michelblueg23]

Love that - song and lesson! Thanks

[@flatpickfan]

Many thanks. I agree, a nice song/melody and a nice guitar riff/pattern. Works for me!

[@Airsoftslayer93]

I requested this ages ago, Thankyou Marty

[@illuminotmereloaded6896]

Good work here. Much appreciated!

[@Kane856]

Fantastic - Love Donovan, keep them coming Marty :)

[@RockinJohnny]

Excellent tuting this, sounds just like the record

[@Metal-Spark]

Could you do a video just on embellishments? I'd love a way to add more interesting sounds to the songs I know and it'd really help practice in general too

[@dontgoout1434]

Embellishments can be learnt yourself try any other note without leaving a chord .are you talking of barre or open chords

[@naztubez]

You got me playing like a baws. Thank ye.

[@chrispools]

[@AdrianDelso]

Another killer lesson. Marty has to be one of the best guitar teachers on the Interweb.

[@dontgoout1434]
