Tunes of pure delight     

Hi Riverdales, nice to see someone posting on a weekend, apart from spammers!

One question...I use Yahoo for email is it safe? I take from your post you're no fan? I got shot of ccleaner just before my pc crashed fataly.

Oh, and welcome back     

And whispered words     

His conscience said didgery don't...     

and the ice cold 6 pack     

A spiders kiss     

And choked my     

Played by my dad.     

Like iPhones and busses...there'll be another one along in a minute!     

Welcome Cenela, learning can be hard, remembering positions, how to finger properly and strumming or finger picking patterns. First question I'd ask is...how good is your guitar? If it's a cheapie chances are the strings are too high off the finger board and or the neck is too wide or deep. My advice would be to go to a music shop and try some good guitars, if you're serious about playing you'll try this. Play some of the tunes you're doing now then the difficult chords to see if it's easier to play. The strings may also be a factor if they're too heavy guage? For acoustic guitar I'd advise 10 or 11 guage. Hope this helps. Good luck and let us know how you get on.     

I know how you feel Jeff. It seems every other vehicle is a white van, or blue van in the case of Amazon deliveries! As I live in a terraced street, the delivery person will knock door after door if the can't get an answer, they can't just leave the parcel as they'd get stolen!
You've written a very cleverly composed song.     

McCartney has often said that there was a rivalry between him and Lennon, they would try and out do the other which we have all benefited from in songs that are still some of the best stuff 60 years later. There was (as well documented) a lot of acrimony between all four Beatles especially Paul and John, and they were still trying hard to out do each other after the break-up eg: Lennon's "How do you sleep" and McCartney's "Jet". Pundits like to blame Yoko for the break-up, maybe she was part of it but there must have been lots of other stuff like affairs with other bandmates wives, The feeling of invasion by Yoko during recording sessions etc. Don't forget Ringo was first to leave the band during the recording of the white album. There's lots we don't know and may never know. I hate "Let it be" due to the depressing way they were depicted in the original film and the awful recording techniques used with several producers used, excluding George Martin but including Phil Specter. Shambles! It's a shame as there are some great songs on the album.
