Im 54 and just picked up a guitar 6 months ago. Thank you for this. It makes me want to continue on my journey.

Not an experienced guitar player. But when I here something I love, I practice for days until I have it. I fortunately am able to pick up things very quick. Now I can add this to my repituor of songs too difficult for me to know, with dust in the wind.

[@josephgibson6401]

Get you the song "one last breath" it's a modern(er) song that most will immediately recognize, and it's only got like 3 different parts, and sounds WAY more complicated than it actually is

Why do you think? There are talented musicians today, too. It's important for young people to get knowledge of the old music... this is a problem, BUT videos like this can bring a change. Hey, why don't you open a channel to show young musicians the retro sounds, too... ?! ;-)

I had heard this song before somewhere, a movie perhaps. Stumbled across it by pure chance a few days ago and was absolutely obsessed with it. There's something magical about this song , either way I've been playing this non stop until I've got it down . So thank you for making these tabs they're perfect.

[@wyrlismike]

I've wanted to know how to play this for 20 years, the tabs I always found were single note tabs that I knew wasn't the "real" way, thanks for posting

[@tomcon21]

Thanks!

[@Tom-gv2eo]

😊 Santo & Johnny Farina : Sleepwlk ,1959. Recorded on Pye- in C . N B the F minor chords give it a unique tang :- 24 yrs ago I 'scored it out ',note by note on to music paper - v time consuming, & learned to play it on piano / keyboard ( nice with certain 6/8 rhythms) Th Shadows 1961 version was much different : 'heavyer' & with some altered phrasing.

[@JohnDoe-ig9ww]

Grt Job smooth action the slides the string bending and note for note also reverb full of twang for sure

[@reedburke7762]

Hello Tom...I started playing again after decades because of this fantastic arrangement! I finally learned this after a month but will never sound as good as you do; I say not bad for a 69 year old and a great teacher from New England! Born in Vermont 1949 here! Unchained Melody next! Thank you again.

[@tomcon21]

Thank you so much! Enjoy!

[@Tom-gv2eo]

😮. Unchaind Melody is a clever tune & has many chord changes.

[@Col.JohnMatrix]

2:06 RRIIITTTCCHHIIIIEEE. All jokes aside man awesome cover. The reason i play guitar was because of La Bamba and this song. Saw it as kid and fell in love with the music and instrument. Your rendition is so close to pedal steel and i'm digging that subtle slap back reverb/echo!

[@tomcon21]

Thank you so much!

[@harvest38]

It’s not Richie😢

[@jarrod9052]

Thanks for doing this . You have the most accurate version I came across on KZbin. I’ve basically been teaching myself this song but your tutorial will perfect what I’ve fumbled through

That’s great, glad it’s helping and thank you!

[@chemicalcabbage]

Such a beautiful song. Never thought when I first picked up a guitar I'd be able to play something like this! Thanks mate.

[@hugo.castro9590]

Same as me man, yesterday I tried to play it and when I saw I could play it I was really shocked because I realized how much I've improved since I picked up the guitar.

I even purchased your backing track. I’m a huge fan of surf rock. The first song I ever learned on guitar was Gloria and Walk Don’t Run.
