Brett, I recorded those karaoke tracks almost a year ago and hadn't listened to them in a while, and that was the first thing I noticed when I heard them again too - needs reverb! I'm planning on re-recording them anyway (I need all the practice I can get!) so will use a bit on the next go 'round.
Thanks a Million,,, I will post my Version of He Touched me on May 3rd, At Church . That is also the day I will be baptised! Thanks so much

Hey Guitarmaniac! Great stuff!! I can hardly play, let alone finger pick!! What amp you playing through?? Here's a little tribute to you and all the other players out there on this forum.
First, if not maybe second time we played this song ever with our new drummer. Hence the warp speed, no stops and me not playing the song for literally 3 months and trying to remember it on the spot!! But I enjoyed it!! Thanks to everybody that has posted on this thread! You've made it worth while!! Cheers Pete P.S. Don't be too critical!! LOL!!

Thanks for the praise Matt! I have some small tips or something similar. Most important practise it as often as possible. I guess I have a pretty good base in playing fingerstyle guitar as I've been playing classic spanish guitar twice as long as electric guitar. About a year ago I was very frustrated because I watched all those videos of Brian picking the hell out of the pinstripe hotrod and I couldn't even do a single lick or so. But I kept on practising and it really worked I guess the most important thing is to keep the thumb going independent from your other fingers. I still have problems with that when I try to play some Chet Atkins songs. If I had tabs I would give them to you right away but the whole video was just some standard improvised stuff. Do you have the HotLicks Video with Brian? He explains the pickin' part in Too hip gotta go which is pretty similar to what I've done in the video. Another tip is a guy on youtube called "fast eddie" or something similar to that. He has some cool basic fingerpicking videos that could help you.
I hope I could help you at least a little bit =) I'm glad you like it!
