For me, I play quite a long time guitar; and although I (unfortunately) earn my living doing other things,
I belong entirely to the person named on the cover target group "for Solo Guitar" - I do not trust me, a repertoire in matter-what-to-areas
(Whether or Flamenco Death Metal, Folk Picking, baroque / sounds, blues, Django Reinhard cover band ....) "deny Can 90 minutes solo performances" to blow up at short notice.
To my motivation to buy:
Laziness. Laziness and the (probably stupid) desire to buy good idea because:
95% of all Beatles songs can be directly "at sight" with pick-but good arrangements require a lot of work
and above all, a lot of inspiration. An old friend has now begun after a long break some time ago, you
regular torturing dusty piano on the second floor again) and asked me if I did not like and a few ideas for a bit
Had Sunday afternoon-at-openings-or-so Beatles-pieces-together-down noodles, just for fun - of course. Always yet. Alone, hmm .... the
Time to be creative-the-song-to-own making but can abbreviate safe somehow? Ta-daa: appearance -> this book. Praised at Amazon in the sky,
and provided on the cover with the remark "FOR SOLO GUITAR" - behold mer mal.
To my expectations before buying: after the flaming recommendations of now 6! Reviews with full 5 stars I had a score at least! Bit! Individuality
expected in the transcriptions; possibly one or the other piece implemented rather jazzy, the other perhaps more walking towards Country-picking ...
At best, maybe something enthralling-individual a la Tommy Emmanuel, whose unbelievably ingenious interpretations I've always liked replayed.
To my mind after purchase:
Oh. My. God.
So a scrap I have long since been in the hands.
Someone apparently a "Beatles: tablatures and chords's bonfire" * .pdf from the Internet and pulled rather bad
rewritten to a standard grading system. Nix individual, nothing clever, nothing nice to listening: at all times nothing at all except stupid ester thud-thud-thud
Accompaniment, for which the name "fingerpicking" is about as suitable as "hit" for Lou Reed & Metallica ...
Example 1:
"Let it be"
The chords of the (piano) accompanied begin so: C - G A - F, C - G - F -C
The bass notes of "fingerpicking arrangements" are as follows: C - G - A - F, C - G - F - C
The melody of the vocal line to the beginning of "When I find myself in times of trouble ..." is: GG | GGAEGGCD | EEEDDCC
... And the forefinger of professional picker plucks So of course: GG | GGAEGGCD | EEEDDCC
pling, pling, pling.
.... Of course all in eighth notes without any embellishments. incredibly sensitive. incredibly Werktreu :) incredibly boring.
Example 2:
"Yesterday"
For a great intro to this classic, we use a G5 chord and pluck in eighths: D, RMZ, RMZ, RMZ - D, RMZ, RMZ, RMZ. Finished!
AAAARRRGGGHHH ......
The author even manages to make a mess of "Michelle"; and in the pieces, where a drop-D tuning is used, this is just an excuse
as often as possible and always nice just to Dengeln on 1 and 3 the depth D string with your thumb. Wow.
Brrr - I am until further notice only times of prefabricated "Arrangements" (laughing!) Served - this concoction is the musical equivalent of a Fleurop bouquet:
Yes, although there are flowers / scores, but loveless together half clapped and scruffy already in delivery.
Hands off!
