RicksPick learning to play More Than Words acoustic guitar
I like both of them alot. I tried More than Words when it came out several weeks ago, but struggled mightily and gave it up. I will come back to it, though, as your version has inspired me to give it another go. Not any easy song, though.

Guess I missed this the other day.... :silly:
I have to be honest. I am NOT a fan of Extreme in any way, shape or form. Did not like this song when it was out back in the day (how's that for starting off friendly.....lol).
Now that the negative is out of the way, I really thought your strumming/percussion was terrific. Whether I like the song or not, I appreciate the techniques involved and the work you have done. Excellent job! I love that type of sound, and would like to spend some time on it myself. Keep up the hard work, as it is certainly paying off... B)
Cheers!

Rick- looking good on a really tough song! Your percussive technique sounds great and the chord patterns are almost there. Timing will get better with time too!
Overall, a really nice job. You should be very proud of the progress you've made. Lot's practice has really paid off!
Thanks for sharing this fine video! I enjoyed it!
Cheers! :cheer:
p.s. I love the hat too! You and Tony should start a cool hat group! lol!

Thanks MJ didn't like it either back then as thought it was a girlie tune, love song type of thing, lol, I only recorded and uploaded it today though.
Thanks Rick praise indeed, Hey I'm just glad I live In the Northern Hemisphere so I don't have to use double sided sticky tape to keep my hat on
Cheers

Regardless my friend, I still enjoyed your work on it, and it made me think of giving it a go for the learning....Thanks MJ didn't like it either back then as thought it was a girlie tune, love song type of thing, lol, I only recorded and uploaded it today though.

Hey Rick great mate! Unlike all these Macho men I love that song. (I'm very in touch with my feminine side). You are getting it really well I think, I can't really offer suggestions, but it's on my list of songs. Thanks for the look. With Layla, it's coming along. Just that intro mate over and over and over until it's under you fingers. I get you with the nerves, it's a pain that they get in the way of showing where you are really at with the tune, but I think we all understand that.
The first hat is killer. You should have been doing Streets of London with it...perfect.
The second one...when you put it on and stared down the camera I felt you were talking to me after my "ungracious" comments about England! I love you guys really, it's just the colonial boy coming out in me.
Great job Rick, look forward to the next update.
