    Hello Jerry

    I was just wondering if you were going to do the Eric Clapton song
    (Hideaway) Great song I can not find a lesson anywhere you are my last hope.

    Thanks
    Ken

      Hi Ken,
      The answer is yes at some point, but I don’t have a timetable for it at the moment. It’s one on a long list. Sorry I can’t be more helpful.

    Jerry! Wow!! A whole set of Nick Drake tunes!! Brilliant!!!

    Nick is one of my favorite artists and one of the most difficult to emulate. Especially since there is no live pieces to look at and “fix” those little trouble spots.

    Day is Done is such a beautiful and magical piece and, like Taylor’s “Mexico”, one of those pieces that I just couldn’t seem to quite get right over the years.

    I just purchased this and Pink Moon, which is not as complex as Day is Done, but even in the intro piece I notice that you’ve done it a bit differently than I have been all these years.

    Thanks again Jerry, keep up the great work, and what a total surprise to see Nick Drake tunes!!

    Also, I hope you haven’t forgotten….I would LOVE to see you do a full lesson of Williams’ “Classical Gas”!! I’ll be first to purchase it AND I’ll make a little shrine to Jerry’s Guitar Bar in your honor! :) :)

    Kevin

    Hi Don. You can download directly to an iPad. You just need the free ‘Zip Viewer’ app.

    I love Nick Drake. He is probably advanced for me but it will be fun working on these songs. My favorite Nick Drake song is the cello song. It probably doesn’t sound great just guitar, but it is a shame you didn’t include it. I am away so I will wait until Tuesday when I am back home to purchase and download with my PC. Shame cannot download directly to an iPad.
