  Time of your life

Hi all,

This recording business is something else eh. Nearly as frustrating as smooth chord changes!. Anyway here is my first upload. been playing for a few months now and would like a bit of feedback. be gentle eh, didn't play the entire song, think I missed a bit out and the end picking went a bit wrong at the end. but hey it's all part of the fun

Keep rocking

Rockingdad


Be excellent to everyone :o)

Nice job RockinDad... Nice and patient and played with some style. For a few months on guitar, that's an awesome job.

Good job, perhaps just up the tempo slightly. Any chance of hearing you add a vocal? Nice playing though, sounds like you were having the time of your life (groan).
