Hi Willem... nice strumming! Good work on this. Can I suggest you check out the hammer ons at the Em, not quite right. Very important to get that right as its key part of the song. If you listen to Neil's or Wandoctor's version you will hear it. Neil explains it nicely in the lesson. Looking forward to the harmonica riff!
Hi Willem,
You've nailed the Em C D G sections down solid. I was really feeling the groove there. As Chris has mentioned, above, there's something not quite right about the timing in the latter section of the verse. I'm afraid I can't say quite what it should be and Neil's video of this song isn't coming up properly; but perhaps there are other examples you could find. The rhythm on the rest is great, however, and I can't wait to see it all come together.

Hi Willem,
Real nice job. Nice bass strum and clean chords. One thing I notice is when you go from the D to the Em there seems to be a couple strums missing or something. It still sounds really good though. I can't wait to see everyone doing the "long distance collaboration" on this great tune.

Hello Willem. Great tune and I look foward to your contribution in the "Full MOnty" with the other TG players. I think this version was good except for the hammer-ons that were already mentioned. Thank you for posting your video.

Willem- well done!! A really fun song to play.
If I may suggest, work on your timing on the intro. The downstrokes are critical to this song. The upstrokes are almost silent at times.
In the Intro after you play the D chord you go back to the Em for just one downstroke and then play the little vamp or riff. And then play the whole Em7-D-Em again. Remember that Neil Young's song are pretty simple musically but they rely heavily on timing for their impact. You can't just play the chords and sound like Neil!
Your chord work in the verses sounds good and you have the timing pretty close. You are really close to having this song mastered!
Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing! :cheer:
