Wow I thought I'd spend a few minutes with this and ended up listening right through. As a musical it has to be up there with the best of them. The darker side reminds me a little of Tommy, that can't be a bad comparison.  On a lighter note. I see Fat Mike mentions The Rocky Horror Show. Love it, the missus and I have seen it many times. I refuse to wear stockings and suspenders, but we make a pretty good Riff Raff and Magenta.

I often just have a scroll around YT just to pick up a few tips here and there, but I haven't found one that focuses on singing and playing, although I guess thats partly because I haven't looked.
One site I particularly like is guitarnick.com, although this isn't on YT. A great site for anyone interested in finger style

Never heard of John Butler, but what a player, great co ordination.  How do they learn to play like that?

I saw Motorhead a few years ago when they headlined a Rock and Blues fest near here. I'm not sure who was more drunk, the audience or the band. The whole set just sounded like Ace of Spades,  This ia a great find, may be worth having a go. Beamer, thanks for posting

Hi ctech. Please let me say again, I think the lyrics are great. Sorry it has to be about a bad experience.  I don't want to be seen to be interfering with your song but as I was playing it through this is what I found. Please remember, I am no songwriter or guitarist.
In the verses you play Am  F. I found Am  G added more emotion.
I added another line to the end of the first verse (D) what the hell am I supposed to do (Am)
Second verse, (D) should I get down on my knees and pray (Am)
I finished in Am rather than finish the verse in F and start the chorus with the same chord.
Their were a few other changes but perhaps to slight to mention.
Thank you for posting,

Thats just not fair, making it look so easy.  They could have at least stuck a few bum notes in there just to make me feel better. Nice one TF

That's right TF, and I'm pretty certain this is the same guy. He went on to have a great career after The Monkees as a C&W artist. One of his numbers I particularly liked to play was Different Drum, that went on to become a huge success for Linda Ronstadt and the Stone Ponys

Just a silly tune
from a strummer boy named Bill
and anyone who knows me
knows how much I love you
and that I always will.

Sorry Bill I'm on my lunch break at work and this just popped into my head.

How odd. I never saw anything like that before. Passionflower is just amazing,  I thought us men couldn't multi task, but here we got a bloke playing percussion, singing, playing guitar and tuning all at the same time. I wish I could do one of those things properly.

Very nice Bill, will you also be treating the one who must be obeyed?

Hi there, some angry lyrics in there. Haven't had chance to play it through yet but will do a, s, a, p. Thanks for posting.
