Matt,
Nice job! Sounded good. Your strumming was steady and the hammer-ons were good. Well done!

That's coming along nicely Matt, the Neil Young embellishments are sounding good. Only comment is work on the Neil Young claw hammer style a bit more and get the muting at the bridge down then you'll have the whole NY deal going on. Lot of work in this tune for a 5. Hey you are getting there NY is not as easy as some might think.

If I wasn't off to work right now I'd be picking up my guitar and refresh my memory on this song.

Good job Matt

Chas

Matt, You have this pretty far down the road and it is sounding very good. I can only offer encouragement on this tune as I have not yet learned it.

Well you got the progression and hammer/ons on there place,,so now you can focus on the mutting wich will give the NY sound..

Nice going Matt, that seemed to really flow out of your hands. I would loved to have heard that sung too!

Sounds good Matt, as Chas was suggesting the palm muting could be enhanced on the intro part. I would add that it would benefit to emphasize the picked bass line : pick the individual bass note while strumming, a little louder as this is the key signature of the song (besides the intro).


Great work Matt

TG friends,

Great feedback on the palm muting and emphasizing the bass notes.

I have been really enjoying playing with a pick lately and working on my accuracy and timing.

I blew a few sections by playing one too many measures here and thre and mixed up the arrangement as usual, but feel pretty comfortable with my progress.

Thanks again.

Matt

Hi Matt,

Real nice job on a really cool song. I agree with most here about a little palm muting to really get the NY sound.

Thanks for sharing

Bob

Matt,

Really nice job on this! You should be proud of yourself.

I was having a technical problem with video: the channel that had your singing was completely muted.
