+1 for this comment... B)James is mighty tough to play and even tougher to play AND sing. But you did a fantastic job! And as usual, quite impressive.
Beautifully done!

Hi Bill,
Thank you for this precious little song.
(And for sharing with us that even you have to work hard to make it all sound as good as you mostly do)

Great review on a wonderfully played tune!

Thanks so much for this review and directed lesson. I knew when I asked for your review that you would be able to point out the rough spots in my presentation. What I didn't know is how extremely helpful your suggestions would be. I wasn't aware of the 2 beats extra I was putting before the verses and choruses. Tightening those up has made a big difference. I was aware that my playing of the syncopated tag was incorrect but I didn't know why. Now I do.
As Kev pointed out, one won't see this kind of care and personal attention on other teaching sites. I've been a target member for a little over two years. I've played guitar for close to 50 years, all self taught (except for pointers from other guitarists through the years). I can say that my experience at Totally Guitars has elevated my playing to a new level. For example this song. I've tried for a long time to play it but never got very far. Now thanks to your lessons and now this review, I have it down pretty well. Good enough for me to try it while playing out.
Long live TG!!
Thanks,
Bill
