Mike I just watched Bargain and See Me Feel Me, Awesome!

I feel so enegized to learn these songs as part of my practice routine.

The Who are definitely one of my bands. The songs this site picked for the Who, Stones and Beatles are right on. We need Pictures of Lily

Mike here is my rendition of Behind Blue Eyes. You have to copy and paste. I did a decent jobs with the guitar. It was after six voice lessons. The voice was choppy, but the guitar I was relatively happy with.

It's my music recital. I take voice and guitar.

Love the Who stuff. Thanks, Mike! I especially love the fact that you guys often put songs up on here that aren't taught or tabbed anywhere else. I am a big tab/guitar site junkie and it's refreshing to see songs I love that I can't find anywhere else. A lot of the guitar magazines out there and some of the tab/music notation websites keep putting out some of the same songs that have been tabbed over and over again in the past.

You Better You Bet is a great song and I loved learning it. Same with Love, Reign O'er Me. Mike, you are my favorite instructor on here (although everyone else is great too). I just like your teaching style better and it seems you do more of the songs that I love.

Keep up the great work!

M.O.:

The more I think about it.....the more it would be so special to have a pretty complete study on Pete Townsend and his techniques and style......easily one of the most underrated guitarists and somewhat underrated songwriters of our era!! I believe you're just the man for the job!! It would be a blast for you, for us and especially for G.T.!! Jim C.

M.O.:

I've already submitted my own suggestion to Ben last week or so after we discussed this. We'll see just how much 'pull' a fairly knowledgeable G.T. subscriber has on the ole 'powers that be'!!! Pete is so inventive........I just can tell he'd craft and create nuances and changes that are cool and unusual and just great guitar work........worth a complete study I'd say!!

Also........is that you laying down the vocals on your song lessons. Mike?? I ask this as a compliment!! Jim C.

Jon Statham is the name of the very talented vocalist that lays down tracks for us - I'll be sure to pass along your compliment!
