I am from Alberta Canada and I ❤ this song and I play a 76 Fender Telecaster Deluxe. Playing this song is very calming.

[@liseeistrupschrder4888]

Tuning in from Norway. 🇳🇴 Favourite song , oh gosh. River of tears. And so many more.

[@highdesertsunbeam]

Thank you! Really appreciate your teaching and love to hear you play.

[@michaelsimmons7003]

In Tucson Arizona , my favorite Eric Clapton song would have to be Double Trouble with its sticky blues goodnight.

[@mikefarquhar5063]

Are you Alive in Tuscon! Love that comedy series "Last man on Earth!" Phill Miller aka Tandyman aka Duncan Skunkin, and now I probably know less about a place in America that I've never heard of outside of the show and Google earth, being from Scotland that's an understatement and ironic. Anyhoo- I hope its Wonderful Tonight in Tuscon! Freedom! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.. .. ....

[@michaelsimmons7003]

I actually just moved to Leesburg Georgia, from Sequim Washington. I'm just hanging out in Tucson for a few days. I've only seen a few episodes of last man alive. I forgot about it. I will have to give it another try.

[@johnnyshae2601]

Tucson Guy myself. Never go wrong with Clapton Blues.😊

[@davidsawyer6784]

Fabulous. Starting with nothing. Ending with a wonderful Clapton song. Thanks You Angela.

[@mikefarquhar5063]

This was a good lesson! After you explained about how Clapton sometimes used different chord shapes in live situations, I was inspired to look into alternate shapes, triad positions, inversions to find more shapes to experiment with differences in overall sound of appregios over the chord parts, and then from there I started to find the chord tones and was able to use those notes to emulate the melody/solo parts all around the fretboard in harmony with the key, simply because its all already mapped out waiting to be found! And of course your teaching methods are 'Wonderful' tonight 😉 ha ha, seriously though.. I enjoyed this one, my nephew he is practicing this one and blackbird, day tripper too doing his music gradings so also came at impeccable timing- possibly a KZbin algorithm who knows don't care it I am more of a 'things happen for a reason' kind of guy. Plus I'm subscribed. So thanks! I am Very happy with your Wonderful Tonight lesson. It's good to get into songs in detail over an extended time. I would ask one question- please 🙏 do More like this one.... sometimes the simple ones are the best because they are genius! Making most of the best classics much easier to learn than they seem.

[@daryljones3195]

Tuning in late from Alberta. Very similar to how I play this, but you showed me some nuances that will really make it much better. I guess this would be my favorite, since I play/sing it all the time. So thanks!!!

[@rond227]
