[@jeremiahwells8525]

Howard is the best. I am SO glad you didn't leave those descending arpeggios at the end! Made me grin instantly when I heard them. I gotta go to bed but this will be practiced as soon as I get home from work tomorrow..Night everyone.

Classic George interpretation of a Dylan tune…he “George’s” it up and it always turns out great…nice job…have you heard the “Early Takes” George cd with all the demo acoustic tracks…a good one to study and learn from…and play along with.

[@247GuitarwithHowardHart]

Yeah... His demos are really cool to check out. Sometimes I find I like them better than the "Wall of Sound" treatment Spector gave them.

Great job.....have you by any chance done a Woman Don't You Cry For Me guitar lesson? I love the Early Takes version.....itseems as though he is doing it in open D? Really appreciate the Geirge Harrison lessons.....I can play the stuff it's just my ear has deteriorated and have troubling figuring things out these days......great stuff!

[@247GuitarwithHowardHart]

No... That's a great one though! I'll have to revisit :-)

[@ODadal]

could you do "someplace else"?

[@ellahorses5436]

Superb !! Thanks. There is a fantastic documentary on BBC Sounds ‘Archive Hour’ on Radio 4 on the making of the album - well worth checking out

[@NicholasHerriman]

Could you give me a bit more detail on that documentary? I couldn't find a 'making of' program there.

[@johncorner9295]

Nice one...

[@larryblack9438]

Well done👍

[@247GuitarwithHowardHart]

Thank you 👍

Nice alternative voicings...FYI It is not co written. It is a Dylan composition, George did not co write. He covered it but in keeping with the God theme of All Things Must Pass record George sings it as a devotional song( ( if not for you , being a God or Spirit consciousness. Dylans perspective is- If Not For You- a woman or a lover, ( probably Sara his wife) An interesting change in perspective without changing a word. Rumi often has the same variable. Drunk on alcohol or a lover or altered by God consciousness.

Good question... I've no idea. Maybe someone out there knows?
