Thanks Jerry – I find your lessons very helpful (from an older beginner in Perth – Western Australia).

Your lessons are great!
Kevin Yates says
Thanks Jerry! I received the compressed files. I like the play through version as it gives us the reality of real time and how this should sound! It is a huge help. In fact, I will now be subscribing to your Youtube channel as well!

Hi Jerry,
Great YouTube-video on My girl! Unfortunately I haven’t received any link to download the file however…

It took a while but I finally got my girl downloaded . Why does one have to put their name and email and have the link sent for each song ? Just curious .
Tom says
Why is it when someone gets somethiing great for free that they have to complain over something as small as entering your name and email? I grew up in an age when I would have bent over backwards to get something like this even if I had to pay for it. I guess its a sign of the times.

Well I tried to get Mr Bojangles but the link to the eweb site does not do anything. I could get to the My Girl web site and requested the file. However, I got a return email titled My Girl when I attempted to access it the enclosed files say Mr Bojangles???? As always thanks for the great work you do.
Ron Castledine says
Both files downloaded fine and got an almost instant link.Mr Bojangles and My Girl look great,
Thank you.
Shaun says
I received 2 links both appeared to work (I only downloaded from one of them though). Both also went to my Hotmail “junk email” folder. So I added you address as ‘not junk’. They were prompt in arriving though!
All the best!

Downloaded “My Girl” no probs. Many thanks.
Ted White says
took 4 or 5 attempts the e-mails came ok. and eventually the download which took about 18 minutes but got there. Windows 7 and probably not the best broadband service. Bo Jangles however was much easier.? Both very good by the bye
