Great stuff Adrian, and a early merry Christmas to you. You always make me smile not sure why, maybe because your so damn good at playing the guitar, maybe because of your English charm and wit! Doesn’t matter love your KZbin channel and spreading the Christmas cheer through your choice of song👍🇨🇦

[@harigeorgeson5885]

Tasty stuff Adrian. Liked the way they combined hits of the day with Xmas songs. Will pick up the album for next season. Was a big fan of theirs growing up. And the sleigh bells rock!

Thank-you. Yes, it's actually a really clever album, just enough Christmas cheese, whilst still being cool.

Brilliant Adrian, just brilliant, thanks. Happy Christmas and New Year to you and your family. Really nice to see some Ventures in your new batch of vids, still hoping for Ghostriders by them from you. I know it’s not the most difficult of tunes but I’m very interested to see your take if for no other reason than to see how it should be done.

[@acpg]

Thanks Jay. Yes, I really enjoyed putting this together so I may well look at some more Ventures next year.

Hey Adrian, please consider a Replacements song for a future lesson!

Yes, good idea. Compiling list of possible songs for next year so I'll add the Replacements as I'm a big fan.

[@chucksturf1348]

Merry Xmas & Happy New Year Adrian! As usual, another smashing & fantastic video! The Ventures are my "Favorite." Have you ever Played the Venture's version (Ventures Go Country Album) of Wildwood Flower. This song in tab would be a great New Years gift to me and your loyal fan base. Please consider!!!!! Thanks again and Happy Holidays! Chuck

[@acpg]

Thanks Chuck. Great suggestion. No promises but I'll definitely think about it!

[@olivercornford8353]

Could you do Blank Generation by Richard Hell please? 😊😊

[@5olas]

Missing your lessons and exemplary playing. Hope all is well with you and yours.

[@lurkkartman3xy338]

Please do a lesson for madonna of the wasps

[@hobonickel840]

Can you do a vid on the new legend Colter Wall and his Americana, country folk style? Please!! Not so much a song lesson even tho every song is badass but that syle

[@acpg]

Thanks. Yes, you can stream the backing on my site - link above. Email me if you want an mp3 and I'll send it.

[@ganjalord42]

[@DaveFisher1]

[@donp5763]

I'm on it.

[@acpg]

Good luck with it!

[@unclesuperfly]

Are you taking a break from KZbin? Working on lessons? Website?

[@davidworsley206]

Adrian, is the message on your website about malware etc a joke, or is it for real?

[@acpg]

Er, not the kind of thing I'd joke about. Maybe a problem with your computer as I don't see it on mine?

[@1972CB350]

What beats a Jazzmaster in capable hands? Nothing.

[@Broeseler]

Hahahahaha - f.......great!

[@acpg]

Cheers Robert!
