yep, that was it!!
not heard that for ages.

Ken

phew,
I am glad I dont remember this program, so that means I am still a boy,lol

I do rememberthough some other program I tihnk on bbc2 early eighties? cnny remember the name either ,lol. But that had a lot of guitar tuition on it.

My wife, brother, and 2 mates are all left handed but they play like a right handed player.

Never actually thought of this before. So many left handed people dont play the left handed way.

Hi nadine,

See like what James said about me and roger taking the lyrics and chords for one of his songs, well that was a wee experiment we done in Feb. just to see what it would turn out like.

I would do more of them i this computer was not so tempramental with my recording. Some days it will not allow me to do it, other days I could do it all day. I get fed up and dont record so many now.

sometimes with your own melody to someone elses song you might find you have to change a chord or two to make it fit to your style,

Ken

Yep,
It looks like I misread his silly stupid original post. I thought he was complaining about having tabs and nt what chords. Now I see he i anting actual sheet music, a page that "real" musicians will understand.

What a complete numpty welcometmyhead is. I know some numpties that hve said nicer things than he has done.

As mentioned about John Lennon, also Paul Macca did not understand any sheet music at all through the 60', I dont even know if he does now.
He did not know sheet music but still managed to write songs on the piano,guitar, bass.
When I started off, I did not have a clue apart from the little i got taught in school

but looking onthe positive side, ye have got a lot of replies.lol

this song is now on my bebo page on my playlist.

Ken

yep,
you do get quite a few wrong chords here and there, but it is good to know you can change them so everyone can see the correct chords.
Bad thing is someone could change them so they are the wrong chords.

If someone has changed the chords incorrectly it is easy to change them again.
Down the bottom of the page where the song is, there is an option to revery back to original.
this will put the chords back to te same as what chordie first got them as. This is not to say they will be correct iether. It all depends on the website the song came from.

Another way to amend chords is to go to the original site where the song has been submitted to and tell the webmaster of that page. If he is a good webmaster he will amend the chords.

hope this helps and expalins things about wrong chords.

i had a big massive poster once of Angus Young from AC/DC
On the poster it showed him playing left handed, I thought for ages he was a lef handed player but then after watching videos and seeing them, I now know the poster was deceiving.
the poster was in fact a mirror image that made it look like he was playing it left handed.

there is a guitar shop in Glsagow called McCormicks, they have or had a sign up before wit ha big list of songs you were not allowed to play.
I think if they want to sell an instrument the nthe buyer should be able to pay whatever the hell he likes, or she likes.
I didnt like the shop anyway, got bad advice from them before so I never ever went in after the first time, I never recommend it and I hope it has shut down.lol

I watched a documentary a few months ago on hendrix.
According to the program he was heavily influenced by cream, the way they played, not only guitars but al lthe instruments. A few other bands were mentioned as well as guitarists.
I dont think he was a guitar god at all. I think he was fantastic and pretty damn tallented, but a guitar hero? na, not at all. If he had lived at least  7 or years more and kept coming outwith the same stuff, then perhaps yes.
What he was a god at was his unauthorthodix ( spelt wrong) way of plying that got him noticed so much.
in my opinion the guitarist that ozzy discovered " randy Rhodes" was by far a betterguitarist than hendrix, but he gets no recognition because he only done one album I tihnk with ozzy, but if you listen to his riffs and solos i think you will find it hard to disagree.

But I do love hendrix and his music ( mostly his music and not really him)
But just because he is dead I will not go on about how good he could have been if he was not so stupid.
