Mary on a Cross by Ghost (guitar cover).

Back on my covers, and here's more Ghost. Pretty easy one this, but I love the song. Just a joy to play. This is alongside the live version, which is tuned down to C# standard. I've got my guitar in D standard, and I'm using a multi-effects pedal to drop the pitch. Just repaired this guitar after the bridge fell apart, and it sounds fantastic.

The Middle by Jimmy Eat World (cover).

Something a wee bit different again. My covers band are looking at adding some bouncy, crowd-pleasing pop-rock songs, and I absolutely love this one. Really easy to play, even the solo, and it - and other songs - serves to remind me how simple many popular, great tunes are. As always, I own no part of this song. The copyright remains with the artists, composers, and label.

Something a tiny bit different, and whilst looking up songs in the same tuning as My Dying Bride (C#), I discovered most of Bolt Thrower's stuff is. Thought I'd give them a go. Requires a different discipline from other stuff I've done, mainly because of those thicker strings. Really takes a lot out the fretting hand. And the repetitive nature and bits of speed need a lot of concentration. But ...

Playing one guitar part of Turn Loose the Swans by My Dying Bride (I do know the second guitar parts, just didn't know how to combine them in video), a band I've loved since their first album. This song - and this second album - does funny things to me, makes me feel intensely, takes me back all those years. Absolutely loved getting this one squared away. Though it's relatively simple, it still...

Me muddling my way through this excellent tune. Few wee mistakes, but doesn't sound too bad. Reasonably easy, this, but just sounds so good. Love this band so much. As always, the copyright does not belong to me in any way, it resides with the artists, composers, and label.

Something a wee bit different from my norm. My fledgling cover band wanted to do this, and while I know a few Alex Harvey songs, I'm not too familiar. But have loved getting into this. Relatively simple, it's the timings that are tricky. But managed to get there, and love playing this. Been listening to the album this is from. Some cracking tunes on there.

Me just strumming through the acoustic part of Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead or Alive. Nothing terribly exciting, but I love this song. Few missed notes and slightly awkward chords, but only learned 20 mins before the vid. Can't be arsed doing another. As always, the copyright to this song does not belong to me in the slightest; it resides with the composers, artists, band, and label.

Me, playing the rhythm parts of Slayer's Mandatory Suicide. In-between learning Ghost tunes, I'm trying to get back into heavier, faster stuff I used to play. Okay, this isn't that fast, but it is heavy, and it is a fantastic song. One of their best. Nothing too tricky, though there are a few bits I fumbled. But loving getting back into all this. As always, the copyright to this song does not b...

Continuing my dive into learning Ghost songs, here's Dance Macabre. Relatively easy, though requires a bit of precision and discipline on the chords. But lord, it took me ages to get that wee solo bit. I'm not a lead player, so only try stuff that's structured. But even that can prove tricky. But, getting there. Absolutely love this one, incredible tune. I'm getting a real appreciation for just...

Continuing my dive into the music of Ghost (been listening from the start; never occurred to me until recently to try and play), here is the rhythm guitar part(s) of Square Hammer. Absolute blast to play, and again, some of it deceptive; sounds easy, but took me a bit to get through rhythms right. As always, the copyright to this song is not mine, it remains with and belongs to the composers, w...

Rats by Ghost (cover)

Me playing the rhythm guitar of Ghost's excellent song, Rats, plus a wee bit of the pre-solo lead. Despite having loved the band from the first album, it never occurred to me to try and play one of their songs. But I've loved learning this. It's such a joy. Loads of fun jamming this one. Learning more by them, now. Couple wee mistakes in this, but nothing major. Love that riff at the end. As al...

More guitaring. Umpteenth take of The Shortest Srraw by Metallica. Don't know what it is - I'm fine playing, but as soon as I hit record, it all goes to pot. Anyway, few minor mistakes with this, but I'm not doing it all day! Love this tune. Some of those riffs are my all-time favourites, especially that one prior to the chorus with the wee hammer on/pull offs. And, as always, I do not own any ...

Me playing the rhythm part of Megadeth's Symphony of Destruction on my new Jackson guitar. Considering I only relearned the song this morning, I'm happy with this. Sure, it's easy enough, their attempt at emulating Metallica's move to simpler song structures like Enter Sandman, but it's still not a beginner piece. Loving the sound and playability of this guitar. As always, I do not claim any co...
