Hi Bruce: Larry in Pittsburgh.
Great rendition. You show a fantastic knowledge of your instrument. I love those chords !

Keep up the good work. L

Nicely done Bruce!!

Thank you much, Larry and Roger!

Bruce, have you ever considered busking for supplemental inome? Tunes like this will get you a case full of dough every day you hit your "sweet Spot" corner! However, remember what happened to Joshua Bell, so be sure you are at the right corner. KOPAP. Billy

You lost me on this one, Billy ... I know nothing about Joshua Bell. Did a google and found his web page, but still scratching my head. But, all that aside, thanks for the compliment, sir!

Bruce

Bruce,I was referring to Joshua Bell, one of the greatest violinists in the world. In an experiment, he dressed in nondescript clothes, took his Strad worth approx. 3.5 million and went to the Washington, D.C. subway where he busked for about 45 minutes. Almost everyone ignored him but he did manage to make about 32.00. Only one lady recognized him and gave him 20.00. My poorly presented point was that you need to find the "sweet spot" where you will get a full case by the day's end.

And by the way, I do not lie when I state that you guys are light years ahead of me. I am still stuck in the boom-chuck mode of the '50's/'60's Chet style while you guys are into Jerry, Lenny, Tommy, etc. My "boom" is so bad it would make Chucky the doll up-chuck. KOPAP. Billy

Very nice Bruce... I always enjoy you videos.. Thanks.

Bruce, I appreciated the way you transitioned into each section rather than to get there abruptly. I'm a big believer in transition chords and walking notes that move into the next chord.

I'm liable to get the boot for putting this on here, but this site has most of the beatles' videos on it.. Well structured and ordered. Most of you probably know about it.

Anyway, not to take anything awaything from you Bruce.. There is no comparison. I'm a guitar fan over a Beatle fan and your version of Yesterday is wonderful.
