Paul Simon - Call Me Al (Acoustic Cover) - Lewis Foreman

[@Moonlightdance58]

I am impressed. I cannot play that rhythm and sing the lead at the same time!!!

[@lewisforemanmusic]

Thank you! It's just constant practice!

[@briansamuel246]

​@lewisforemanmusic now you got me wanting to learn this song as well. You ain't in Alberta are ya? Should jam.

[@Kwright304]

I reference this cover more than any tab or live performances of this song when I want to play it. It’s a perfect acoustic guitar guide for how this should sound

[@Matix1179]

Try Vance joy cover he makes every song sound good :D

[@harveysengersmusic247]

What an amazing cover! Liked the riff at the beginning.

[@lewisforemanmusic]

Thanks Nate, trying to mimic the bass line!

[@okrunner]

Wasn't sure this song can sound any good on an acoustic. Thanks for proving me wrong. It's a REALLY good rendition.

[@drumreaper]

GREAT version!! Has to be hard to play and sing at the same time!

[@WhyWillMusic]

so so so amazing!!!!!!

[@FlurpsIxoye]

Totally freaking incredible how much rhythm you get going with just one guitar :O

Good job buddy! Such an energetic song. Sweet guitar too. Paul Simon really spits them lyrics out and it's been a difficulty for me in approaching them because of it. Keep it up Anxious Guitarist!

[@StopDropandRoll17]

best cover on youtube!! could you help me figure out the tuning? thanks!

[@lewisforemanmusic]

hi, thanks for checking it out! The guitar has been tuned down a tone, so from lowest to highest, DGCFAD

[@dungeonsanddoombiscuit]

Nice

[@lewisforemanmusic]

Thanks!

[@ramseynukho510]

This is really awesome! I know the chords are F C and B-flat, but from the video it looks like you’re playing G C and D. Are you using some alternative tuning here? Thanks!

[@lewisforemanmusic]

Thanks for the comment! Yeah, the guitar is tuned down a whole step (a tone). The acoustic I'm using just sounded better that way!

[@tonitrif82]

It sounds equally as good at .75x . I highly recommend changing the speeds and checking it out. :) I’m totally being serious

[@lewisforemanmusic]

Never tried that, I'll give it a listen!

[@longbowman2306]

sounds great please tutorial ❤👍👌

[@lewisforemanmusic]

Coming soon!

[@myalaynaangel]

Are you in standard tuning? I love this... learned it from watching you

[@lewisforemanmusic]

Thanks for checking it out! Everything is down a step/tone but essentially yes, its in standard tuning. Thanks for the comment as well!

[@TheDirvish]

Yayyy finally someone who sings it clearly and doesnt try to make it sexy or ruin it with a heavy accent

[@lewisforemanmusic]

That's a huge compliment! Though, to be honest, if I tried to make it sexy, I doubt anyone would notice!

Tune down 2 steps for the original. To follow the original in this key, play G D C G D G. Nice idea with the longer C, tho.

[@garethwilkinson3456]

Looks and sounds like a Martin guitar. My friends like Martin, however I prefer more meat.

Hi Gareth, it is in fact a Maton. Haven't had much luck with Martins but always willing to try! Thanks for the comment!
