Tabs... No talking.. no pausing.👍👍

[@theoramos2841]

Fantástico

[@jebnhunteryt]

Al grano

[@mythcrab6047]

I'm pretty insecure on guitar but being able to rock this one makes me feel like I can play a little bit.

[@Luis_s.08]

No such thing as a bad guitar player just another person with a talent starting to show so if you mess up think of it as an opportunity to get creative

[@nnnnnnnnnick5557]

If you can *play this whole thing, I'd say you have no reason to be insecure!

[@nahbruh9818]

The truth is learning songs you know by heart, even the faster ones. You'll be surprised how fast you can learn them.

[@tczbucks6140]

I am a very beginner how much maximum u think it can take me to play this piece

[@no1reallycaresabout2]

You'll get better. After only 2 years of restarting guitar I was pulling off techniques I wouldnt have dreamed of being able to do at the beginning

[@vinnydanose]

Undoubtedly the coolest rendition of this classic ever...great job Tom, and thanks for posting with the tabs for us!

[@tomcon21]

Thanks for watching!

[@heliosthelightningwolf1778]

well...time to listen to this a few hundred times i guess.

[@michaelgreen9866]

When you play these Ventures covers you are on fire !

[@tomcon21]

Thank you!

[@rolandjgutierrez7737]

Your the walking guitar player memory bank library of every song that every one will and enjoys all these tunes....RocknRollFlat5

[@lenbrownoff8834]

“WOW TOM” you always take it to the next level !!! Played this for years and now I’m inspired to go there too. Thank you.

[@tomcon21]

Thanks Len!

[@user-dv5yt9yc9x]

Very melodiously, literally pronouncing words and intonations. Impeccably.

[@user-uw2pm5sc6j]

아! 넘넘 듣기좋아요! 어렸을때 여름밤에 울.작은오라버니께서 이음악에 기타를 얼마나 잘하시던지요.. 이음악이 넘넘 듣기좋았어요. 지금 63세되어 또!듣고있노라니 그때생각이 상기되어 좋습니다.감사합니다~👍

[@thepumpkinking666]

I've been working tirelessly on trying to get this down. My favorite song of all time and this version is so awesome....Onto the third verse I go....

[@ronhouser9175]

Excellent rendition of this Ventures version. One of my favorites.

[@VeronicalSmith518]

One day. I wish to play like this..🔥🔥🔥🔥. That's the best version Ive seen. Epic!!

[@pleblep2741]

I like how the intro is just a bunch of chords played just slow enough to hear the separate notes

[@lisado6028]

I playing this song over and over, still not even good as you are .....love it❤️

[@user-xs8em2vv4k]

Отлично! Давно искал как играть это соло.Теперь буду учится .спасибо тебе Tom.

[@JimWright1950]

me too

[@videogeekin]

"Bravo! Using a thumb-pick like Nokie is quite hard but somehow you have gotten his technique down without using one".

[@laszlonagy5090]

LOVE IT!!! It isn't too hard, and it sounds awesome! Respect from a Hungarian guy from damn Slovakia

[@Lurk-s]

"isnt too hard" no. it is

[@jacobkim6032]

It sounds like a breathing guitar This is the best guitar sound in recent versions ,Oh My God --- This song is difficult to play with restraint, this person is like Socrates playing the guitar

[@sucharmiszcz]

I can't even describe how perfect that sounds

[@mattbrook3219]

This absolutely rips

[@najibpeligroso8734]

I checked many teaching videos . Yours is the best . Action is better than so much talking .

[@michaelmarshall55]

its a great translation of the epic organ solo’s gradiousness and excitement into the guitar idiom

[@luisburgos6940]

Great as always Mr Conlon! ! This a superb rendition of the Ventures version!! I said it before and I will say it again!! You are an amazing musician!! The Ventures covers are always top notch!! Thanks for sharing!! 👍 👍 🎸 🎸

[@mafatdandebbvlog7127]

I playing guitar.. With your lesson Mr Conlon nice skill and very smooth playing guitar..im from the Phillipines thanks sir

[@shivkumarr9060]

A soft slow moving song converted to a rock number with guitarobatics. You certainly are talented my friend.

[@larrygoldstein3481]

Holy cow great balls of fire, what playing that was.. Smoking the fretboard, your choice of amp tone and playing nuance. I'm going to practice to get this good, it's so awesome. Nokie is smiling at you in heaven!

[@tomcon21]

Thank you so much, I appreciate it!

[@66lwmorgan]

I used to play this back in the day, the 70's but nothing like you just did. I watch all version's of this classic and your version Sir is definitely in the top 3 and there must be a least a million versions. Very nice job, I listen to all your playing. New sub Tom

[@fabiomoreiradossantos981]

I fell in Love for This guitar.....

[@timtaylorguitarnut]

Funny, 26 people didn't like this and I don't know why? No negative comments, if they don't like it alteast say what you don't like. This is awesome nothing negative about this lesson. Great and I'm a new subscriber, glad I found your lessons.

[@tomcon21]

Thanks Tim!

[@urmum1959]

26 people were expecting the Leadbelly version, I guess

[@tomcon21]

Ur Mum 🤣

[@commanderthorkilj.amundsen3426]

Best version I’ve ever heard!

[@tomcon21]

Thank you!

[@patricko.1964]

unbelievably good

[@georgeborrego7483]

That was awsome. I liked the way you put the tabs on the screen while you were playing. You are very talented. Thank you.

[@tomcon21]

Thank you George!

[@TaylorLames]

Definitely check out his other uploads. So many good ones.

[@davidwalter2282]

I was struggling with this, but now I have some guidance! Very much appreciated. Great job!!

[@tomcon21]

Thank you, glad it's helping!

[@burbleburb5264]

This is like a more passionate version of the song

[@normanrowe2831]

The Ventures were awesome. Under appreciated. Super talented. Thanks for your exceptional playing and keeping their music alive.

[@tomcon21]

Thanks for watching Norman!

[@ThePapa1947]

Great job! I saw the Ventures live a number of times. All in smaller venues. Once at a place close to us with table seating and we were right up front next to Nokie. That was the last time they were all still together. I love the Venture songs and you do a great job on all of them. Gary

[@tomcon21]

Wow, must’ve been great to see them! Thank you!

[@ThePapa1947]

For sure it was great. And I saw Mel's son play after Mel had died. Wow he looked like his dad and played the drums just like him. I even talked with Nokie on the phone a few year before he passed away. I had ordered something from his web page. The Ventures are why I started playing. I have a number of Venture music books long before Tab. Thanks for your videos...you are the best I have seen for playing the old Venture songs. Gary

[@videogeekin]

"Note for note just like Nokie played live in Japan on the 'Beloved Invaders' tour documentary film from 1966." PS: Very few guitarists were bending guitar strings like that in 1966. Supposedly Nokie was influenced by blues players like Albert and Freddie King, as well as Chet Atkins use of the thumb-pick.

[@tomcon21]

Thanks!

[@Lqqq]

Great sound and playing without detracting from the original structure of the song! Well done Tom! 🎸 James

[@tomcon21]

Thanks, I actually took it note-for-note from Nokie Edwards' playing in the Ventures live version, Japan 1965.

[@lacomita]

I just happened to be streaming about a week ago when I ran into your channel.. Man I’m glad I did! You are truly gifted..! Your awesome man! Good work! 👍

[@tomcon21]

Thank you!

[@gustavogustavo6003]

Magnífica interpretación. Magistral diría yo!!!

[@USMC_BABE38]

[@flycubfly]

[@rudahunganzideson7383]

wowwwww you play it very well, I play it but I never really got it ..... you are so amazing

[@SuperScreenman]

Tom, I must admit, watching you play makes me think about giving up sometimes... I'll keep trying, Great video by the way ! G

[@tomcon21]

Thank you. Just keep playing. Whenever I get frustrated, I tell myself the reason I’m so frustrated with what I’m trying to play is because I love it so much.

[@georgemarcinko3778]

I'm a big Venture Fan....Love what you do!!!!

[@tomcon21]

Thanks George

[@ACHOO12245]

Bro I've been spending 2 hours on this and I'm getting better

[@edwill62]

WOW, now that was simply AWESOME

[@tomcon21]

Thanks Ed!

[@leaningforward4543]

You da man Tom! Easy looking song, but super hard to play it right.

[@TheTwangKings]

Fabulous version of The Ventures version! 🙂 I think it brings to the song an almost spaghetti western kind of feel.

[@gilh3947]

Great one , Tom! These are such great clips for the home player (or for any player).

[@tomcon21]

Thank you!

[@leventrock63]

BRAVO, my friend! Nokie would proud of you! Greetings from TURKEY!..

[@tomcon21]

Thank you!

[@-GuitarZero]

OMG That was fantastic. Completely stoked.

[@tomcon21]

Thanks!!

[@frantiskagondorcinova6953]

Hezký večer přeji Tome! Děkuji za prima píseň! Zahrál jste ji skvělé! Líbí se mi moc kytarové pisne !! Už jsem jich slyšela dost! Zdravím Vás s Česke republiky! 🇨🇿🙋👋👌🤗

[@frantiskagondorcinova6953]

Krásný večer Vám přeji Tome! Jsem ráda za odpověď a potěšilo mě že se Vám líbil můj komentář! A děkuji za milé ♥️ udělal jste mi radost!!👋👍🤗🤵🏻🎸🥰🙋

[@markheiliger9825]

Great job, Tom. The tone and tempo are perfect. Love it!!!

[@tomcon21]

Thanks Mark!

[@markheiliger9825]

Tom, will you post the backing track for this song on KZbin or Payhip? Also, would it be possible to post the tabs on Payhip as well? In my opinion it would be well worth the money to be able to print out the tabs, make notes, and quickly glance at a tab sheet as opposed to searching through the video. Or, maybe create a “bundle” with the tabs and backing track on Payhip. Just a thought!

[@albertofourie3294]

Wow, simply awesome! 👏 One of my favorite songs which I'm also learning to play on guitar.

[@guitarDad100]

Very nice arrangement. This song is a great one to embellish with. Thanks for sharing.

[@armandomedina5747]

What surprises me is that it plays but wow I'd like to play like your You have my respects brother ❤️

[@smirnoff-3635]

[@tomcon21]

Thanks, have fun!

[@spacelemon1]

Update: I'm playing a lot better... still trash but better trash :) Now i feel comfortable to try and learn this version.

[@scottconger1266]

Oh hell yes, that's my generation's music, sounded great, i mean ( sounded groovy man) thanks for the awsome video.

[@tomcon21]

Thanks Scott!

[@pb12661]

You are amazing! So very happy I found your channel. It’s what I’ve been looking for. I look forward to more of your awesome lessons for this amazing music.

[@tomcon21]

Thank you Matt!

[@sakinney3]

Thanks for this! Now I get to transpose it, since our keyboard player likes the song in another key..... still, great set of ideas to draw from, Thanks again,

[@tomcon21]

Thanks for watching!

[@enriquevargas2618]

Siempre considere que está versión de los ventures es magistral..me impacto la primera vez que lo oi

[@dave9922]

That is excellent playing......wow.

[@tomcon21]

Thank you!

[@Col.JohnMatrix]

Really might have to look into these modeling amp/plug in's! They really bring the desired sound to life. I've been playing thru my mesa boogie roadster for 14 years now. While i love it's 4 channels and versatility it really cant dial in some of these 60's vintage sounds the way the plug in's can. Really solid playing as always Tom!

[@guilleblancotheaulas-ofici2430]

Amo esta version!!! Y la hiciste genial!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@juliewinton4338]

Great sounding song Tom. Perfection

[@tomcon21]

Thank you!!

[@dougschrecengostii3656]

Great work! And another great tune I must now learn - thank you! If I had a suggestion for your videos, it would be Ventures - "Blue Tango"

[@tomcon21]

Thanks! I’ll check it out!
