Russel Hitchcock from Air Supply does the same I was fascinated watching his playing when I was learning 'All Out Of Love'.

Getting back to Bill's point, I have jammed with lefties before and have had no problem watching and following them. When you know the key, you know the common chords used and watching a lefty is like looking in a mirror at yourself playing (the way I learnt to play chords without getting into weird positions to see where my fingers were ). However having the music does make things a whole lot easier.

Unfortunately the water noise is a little overpowering but by using headphones I was able to pick up the guitar work more clearly and you played that piece well. Good job.

I do not usually post multiple songs but this project has been on the back boiler for ages. I recorded the song 2 years ago and have been struggling with material for the video but a chance comment from a friend about a some video clips I posted on Facebook of the normally dried up river beside my home suddenly running with water gave me the idea to finish it. Only completed and uploaded this evening.

For the COLOURS category: Blood Red River.

To maintain a Songbook you have to log in so many of those logged in are probably just here for that.

My pet hate are the ones who come and make a single post because they have a problem and I either ask them to give me more detailed info, to write to me personally, or I do make suggestions to answer their query then they completely ignore the offered assistance and give absolutely no response.

I feel better now I have that off my chest

OK Phill, you asked for it, so now you have it.
For everyone else. I made a recording of how I interpreted this song, however it was not until after I had recorded the backing and started the vocals that I realized that there was a chord error in the original so I sent it to Phill anyway. As he said he would like me to post it here I have re-recorded it, correcting the error, and it is now on Soundcloud:

Ark, I like the transition in the middle of Greensleeves, it makes it far more interesting. I have never heard She Moves Through the Fair before but that is a seriously good piece of music. I am a little surprised that you have not submitted one of your original instrumentals.

Roger

OK Phill I will record it and e-mail it to you as soon as I have finished. You can certainly post yours as I will not listen to it until after I am done as, rightly or wrongly, I do not want to, even subconsciously, have any outside influence on what I do.

Roger

Great offerings from Joe, Tony and Richard. Are they your youngsters in the background, Richard?

Here are mine for this month:

I had a little play with this one Phill but looking forward to hearing a recording to know how you see your song.

Roger

Please explain Jim. Written in the right way it should show the chords, in blue, above the lyric where it changes, written any other way it should remain the same as it was written.

But I did not know that songs from the Songwriting section could be added to a Songbook. A far as I know that should not be possible.

Roger

OK this was just supposed to be a quick test and then deleted but I forgot to delete it.

However it does go to show that the Chopro/Chordpro formatting is now working again.
