Nobody Leaves A Girl Like That - with Old Faithful
As promised What’s Up - 4 Non Blonds
Thought I’d have a look at Last Christmas - WHAM! - Old Faithful again but needs re-recording due to video jump

Fabulous posts Rachel! Super rock steady strumming with old faithful on Home Town Girl and Last Christmas and spot on pattern with What’s Up. Changes clean and timed nicely, plenty to be happy with all around, bravo!
Thank you.
Rachel.
Sounding really good Rachel. Apart from the playing and tone, I think you nailed the balance between guitar and BT.
I think next time round post up in AVOYP as your own Topic.
Keep on rocking and rolling!
Hi Rachel,
What the boys above say
…and fly girl fly
Greetings…
Thanks Nicole! I will definitely take that on board for next time, I also have not grasped using a pick yet which is probably causing my guitar to be low in volume too, I’ll keep practicing
That’s the same here . I’m only playing with my fingers (no pick so far). And yes, that’s a reason for the lower volume.
Great work Rachel.
The strumming/ rhythm skills are looking really good, along with solid, clean chord changes. Well done.
Cheers, Shane
Ooh, off to a grown ups room
Thanks all
Rachel
Hello Chiara and welcome to our community. Also, congratulations on your first AVOYP posting. That was great. Nice playing and singing. Looking forward to other recordings from you.
Three very good videos there Rachael. Your playing is great. You look very relaxed in your strumming and the chord changes sound nice and clean. Well done.
Thts good to know, I’ve done the Strumming SOS 1 for 11 weeks, maybe time to look into dynamics and possible get a better feel to upgrade my strumming. ?
Rachel.
Yes, something to start. Get into those good habits early.

Bravo, Chaira, that truly was ‘short and sweet’. Playing and singing both sounded good. Keep on keeping on and I look forward to a full recording of the song when you are ready.
Here is my second attempt at Pearl Jam’s black ,hopefully better than the last time I played this. I have been working hard on my timing and in general strumming . I think I have improved and will continue to work on my timing. Also working on dynamics’s and sus cords.
Hi Jeff,
That sounds pretty good and looks good
A lot to like,
Greetings,Rogier
Thanks to Justins teaching for making my guitar journey easier then when I tried last time I tried the guitar. I have improved and plan on pushing forward. Thank you roger for your kind words.
Your timing and strumming look and sound good. You need to get your guitar much more vertical though.
When you’re learning it’s really tempting to either lean over the guitar or lean it back to you to get a good view of the strings, though these will turn into habits that are hard to break, (and you do need to break them!). In the longer term, if you lean forward all the time while playing then that can be bad for your back, while if you tip the guitar back to you, then stretching your hand around to fret can lead to wrist and finger problems, such as carpal tunnel syndrome; both of which are best avoided if you can!
It looks as though you may be sat on a couch/sofa and this may be encouraging you to lean back and take the guitar with you? It will help you (and your body) to sit on something more like a dining room chair, which will encourage you to sit more upright.
Look forward to to seeing more soon!
You are right I was on my couch laid back on a Sunday morning. I don’t always play like that .but thanks for the input and will try to knocking out the bad habits.
That sounded really good Jeff. Lots to be pleased with there. The timing sounded good and everything was nice and clean.
Some great advice there from Iain too. Try standing up and see how that feels. Watching you play I don’t think you would have any problems with your chords changes whilst not looking at your fretboard.
