You are among the greatest guitar teachers ever. You have taught me how to sing and play at the same time. I never thouht that was possible. Thank you very very much.

[@michaelneas2732]

singing over the top of the long part of that riff is challenging, I like Robs tutorials not only for his teaching style but he includes the singing and usually the whole song, Thank Rob

[@davidbischoff1770]

Another great lesson from Rob Swift

[@dominikmarkov7052]

Great lesson. I had learned this song years ago and forgotten the chord progression to the bridge. A couple of things I do differently though: On beat 2 of the main riff you pluck the G# note on the E string. When I listen to the recording I hear him doing a quick slide from the 3rd to 4th fret (G to G#). I was also taught to use all downstrokes for the riff but I really can't say why that is how they taught me but I think it sounds more even when I do. Also I wasn't playing the C7 as the last bar on the first half of the bridge. I was doing 2 bars of Cmaj and the Cmaj to C7 sounds a lot better. Another thing is strumming pattern. I strummed DDUDUDU and the DDUUDU you teach sounds more like the way Roy Orbison played it. Thanks for getting me through another one.

[@patrickbuechel2599]

Good lesson, thank you. There used to be some great Philly steak sandwich shops around the Navy base at the end of E Broad Street back in 1972, I was in the Marine Corps station d there. I lived on those sandwiches and sweet potato french fries,,,the shops I liked served the steak n cheese on Lebanese bread rolls with grilled pepperoncini, fresh grilled mushrooms, grilled onion, provolone, mozzarella, cheddar or cheese whiz. I miss those sandwiches.?.😮😊❤
