This song is again recorded with my phone. (Next probably a DAW song!) Motörhead has a cover of "Johnny B. Goode", so I Iistened to the original from the 50s! Chuck Berry Rock ‘n Roll. The intro is great, there are more songs with similar intros. They are so cool that I wanted to learn them at the end of last year and did. In this song, I just use my version of it as the intro. I play it a little lower so it's appropriate for my song. The last chord of the intro is the 1st chord of my song, except I play it as a power chord instead of a major chord. Some of my intro version is pretty much like the original, some is my version. It's really fun to play with these Rock ’n Roll intros, I could do it for hours. In one of the covers of the songs with these intros, the one with Beethoven in the title, there's an orchestral version of Beethoven's famous symphony at the beginning. I wanted that too, but of course only on my guitar, so I made up a guitar version of it and put it in front of the Rock ‘n Roll intro. Only after that my own song begins. It's even more freely than my 1st song here. I know the chords and riffs and lyrics, but decide always when playing when to change the riff. So the recording is a way for me to learn to produce one special version and not play it differently each time. You will hear that it is played and sung very freely. So consider it as a song performance for friends, not really a well-structured and finished song. Furthermore, I play nearly everything as slides, so it is harder to play then it sounds. I wanted to play it a bit faster, but it was not possible, this is the fastest drum accompaniment my amplifier has, it doesn't go any faster. One the other hand, for some parts of the lyrics it would be really difficult to sing it any faster.
Since someone asked for the lyrics of my last song I provide it here:
Guitar Heros
Guitar heroes of the past, may be gone, their music will last.
Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix gave us all the great licks
Angus Young, so alive, plays day and night
Eternal guitar riffs sound so loud
Make Berry’s Rock’n’Roll proud

Guitar heroes of the past, may be gone, their music will last.
Eddie van Halen’s fire hand, Tony Iommi’s powerful band
And not forget all the women of Rock:
Lita Ford’s solos wild and bold
Joan Jett’s chords breaking the mold
From their style I find my own
Like from seeds they have sown
With their songs I find my way
Getting better every day
Discovering riffs old and new
Offers a lesson for me and you
For me and you, for me and you

Guitar Heros
