"Classical Gas" by terrynewton

[terrynewton]

Well—here it is gang--- my first attempt at “Classical Gas”. The first couple of notes got missed on this video and that was bad “start” timing on my part. Next time I will wait a little longer before I begin.

This is the first song Neil I heard you play, and it has always been the one I’ve wanted to learn throughout my entire life, and you made it possible. Thanks!!!!!!!

I know I have a lot of work and clean up to do on it------but I was excited to post it and show you what I have been able to do with it since I joined up in mid May.

My “baseball bat” grip is still with me but I hope that will fade as time goes on. I am working on your last suggestion to me on that point. But this time I let the bat fly on this just to get it posted and sound some what reasonable.

I will continue to practice this until I master it and with your help and the input of the TG family all things are possible.

Terry,

It's going to take a better player than me to critique this piece, but man, that was entertaining.

Thanks for posting it.

Hey, Matt's the entrepreneur around here. Do you think he's thinking about the TARGET album yet?

Excellent job Terry. You should be very proud of yourself. Keep working on your left-hand position and soon that thumb will learn to stay behind the neck (lol) It is worth the effort, it will make your chord changes, especially barre chords, much easier.

Bravo!!

Super job. I'd be very happy if I could play even somewhat close to what you did. But watching your vid somehow makes it look doable, with mucho practice, so thanks for the vid. What's next, you start at a 10 or close to it, I'm looking forward to seeing your next vid. Thanks Gary.

Ummm. Not sure what to say about that except "Wow". Something for us mere mortals to strive for...

Only thing I see to work on is the tan line from your watch!!

Excellent job, Terry.

Excellent job,Terry, you are much closer to Neil version that I am, which means it is possible. This is a good motivation and inspiration.

Great work
