I hope you enjoy my second rockin' medley! As with my last video, my aim is to demonstrate how easy it can be to play rock 'n' roll and rockabilly songs on the acoustic guitar -- it's not the number of chords you know, it's how you use them that counts!
I teach the strumming patterns I use when playing open chord rock and roll like this in my Tutorial #5: [ Ссылка ]
You can learn some of the most commonly used riffs in rock and roll and rockabilly from my other guitar tutorials: [ Ссылка ]
If you'd like to buy a copy of my new chord songbook '50 from the Fifties', which contains 50 classic rock 'n' roll and rockabilly songs that can be played with just 4 easy open chords, then search for 'Jez Quayle' and 'Rock and Roll' on Amazon. Unfortunately, I can't provide a single Amazon link that will work all around the world.
If Amazon says 'out of stock', or you'd prefer not to use Amazon, you can also purchase the songbook from Lulu.com in paperback or as an eBook (pdf format). Here's the Lulu.com link: [ Ссылка ]
