A Big hello from London

UncleTupelo · #1 November 9th, 2005

Hello and thanks Kirk for all these lessons.

I stumbled across your site a little while back via guitarnoise.com, and now wait with baited breath to access each weekly lesson.

Each time I watch a new video click I think I will never be able to manage the fingering and without fail - and after numerous re-runs of your video clips - I manage to master it (well maybe 'master' is a bit strong!).

So a real thank you from me.

Great to hear from you, Uncle Tupelo, thanks for posting that.

If you have the Kinks' 'Muswell Hillbillies' album, 1972 or so, there's a red door in the background of a picture of them, on the cover ... I lived there at the time. It was on Southwood Lane, Highgate.

I did a few London stints back then. Highgate was definitely the classiest. We got on well, London and me.

Hello Kirk,

I do indeed know that road as I spent a few years in Golders Green (the - slightly less salubrious - other side of the hill to Highgate and Hampstead) so spent a lot of time drinking in Highgate!

I also have the Kinks album to which you refer (my second favourite Kinks album after the beautiful 'Village Green..') so will check out the cover when I get home tonight!

Small world eh!

Now a fingerpicked lesson version of 'Picture Book', that would be a treat!
