Hi Al, sounds pretty good! I was playing along with you on it all fitted well. How about laying down a strumming track and then play over that... or are you doing that already?

Hi Chris,
No multi-tracking here. I'm making a point of keeping my in-progress videos 'bare-bones'. I don't want to muddy the waters and hide my actual playing, so I can (hopefully) get feedback on how to improve.
I may one day post a full version with more tracks.
Thanks again for the tabs and the original post!

To be clear- I record the video about 5 times. If you're talking about actually learning a song- you'd have to add a few zeros to that 5!!
Al WroteI too get frustrated with songs and leave them for a while (sometimes a LONG while). The trick is coming back to them.
To answer your question- I guess when I post a video will vary. It depends on whether I'm looking for help, or want to show a technique I'm working on, or just want to post a song that I'm pleased with at the time. But specifically with this video, I started to learn it after Marc and Chris posted their version (a week ago?). I didn't want or need this upload to be bang-on, as I am looking for input on how to improve my playing the melody with the strumming.
In general though, once I decide to record and post something, I probably record it about 4 or 5 times before I get something I'm semi-pleased with. It also helps that I now leave my recording gear set up all the time now. I can slide in a record whenever I feel like it-- less of a chore to set up etc.
Hi Al
Well you have picked that up quickly in a week... cos it doesn't sound like you've got far to go with it.
Yeah, I can see the advantage of having your gear set up.... you can then record on impulse too.
Thanks
Cheers

Hi Al,can't say much about this REM song,,only that i like it much after hearing Marc and Chris..
