Harvest Moon by Neil Young

Hey Folks, this is my second go at a video. All feedback is more than welcome! I have been strumming and taking justinguitar since May 13th of this year. I also have a great coach yes its that
@Richard_close2u fella!!! Hope you enjoy and I hope it helps someone. It seemed a little dark so I may need to adjust my lighting next time also hope to start singing someday! Thanks!

Thank you @LesPaulMoreRay

Hi Edward,
That was really good, nice steady tempo. You had me tapping my foot along also. Well done :clap:
Like you say a little more illumination from the front wouldn’t go a miss. Lovely song, I only discovered it recently and have been listening to it a lot. Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes,
Alan

Nice strumming and chord changes. If you can get the setup so that we can hear the backing track as well, that would be nice.

Well done.

Coming along nicely Edward. Strumming, good, chord changes, good and even tapping that foot.

The singing will come when you are ready.

Steady rhythm (great toe tapping, who needs a metronome!) and steady clean chords.
Yes, you need to change your setup. Easy one is the lighting. Don’t have a window behind you.
A more defined backing track would be good as it was barely audible and 5 minutes of strumming is a lot.
I look forward to you adding your vocal.
Well done Edward.

Thanks to you all for the great feedback!

Hey Edward, it’s great to see you follow through with your intention to record and share another recording.
I’m quite content to leave the comment to those before me who make some fair points and I can only endorse the positives re rhythm, strumming and keeping the beat. RE lighting, it isn’t that dark during lessons - is it the same camera you used?

That is impressive after that short amount of time! :clap::clap::clap:
I would guess you have spent a quite a few hours to get this down? Very very impressive, nice steady strumming and dynamics!
Well done!

Hi Edward,
Super good on your way, such a long song and then just keep going, for some listeners it may be a bit long, but for yourself these types of songs are really good to play often, keep it up :sunglasses: :clap:
