I put this together quickly for some buddies on the Acoustic Guitar discussion forum. It's a few tips for beginners. Skip it if it's too basic - if not, I hope it's of use to you.

Daisy Bell (A Bicycle Built For Two)
Posted by: HenfieldWill
Video duration: 101 seconds
This lovely old tune was written by Harry Dacre in 1892 and was probably the first (and only) song to be written about a tandem! My version was inspired by that of guitarist John Fahey, who gives a beautifully exact performance of it. Needless to say, I stick in a bit of my own off-the-cuff rubbish in the middle...

Heading South
Posted by: HenfieldWill
Video duration: 255 seconds
A home-made riff in Southern Rock style - starts with the theme, follows with a quiet bit, and then takes off with a nod to the Allman Brothers...Played on my '87 G&L ASAT - early to middle ASATs were the last guitars to be made under the eagle eye of Leo Fender.

Just two choruses of Django Reinhardts's classic - played fingerstyle (in F) - and dedicated to those friends on the Acoustic Guitar Beginner's Forum who get phased by barred chords (particularly the F). You CAN do it!
