The old thread disappeared?! I wonder why.
Whatever, I will repeat 3 previous links,
1. Oh Susanna , my 1st attempt
2. When The Saints Go Marching In
3. Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep, in slow Afro , a slight diversion
And now, number 4:

Great seeing you continue to expand your horizons. I recently watched a video on Chet Baker and he really shows how musical this type of playing is. Rhythm and melody all in one. Sometimes, he even throws in a type of percussive drum thump for good measure.
You have some good tone going there with that guitar (and your fingers, of course).
Enjoy.

Thank you. I do enjoy it, it is fun.

And now, the direct YT link ...

At some other places, I hear some people say that it is un-recognizable, nothing alike Smoke on the water, and so on. I have no problem with that. Obviously, it is not meant to be a cover. Anyway, for the sake of showing where the similarity is, here's the TAB of what I approximately play in intro, the 1st part of verse and 1st part of the chorus. Someone may even find it useful
BTW, in my recording, verse is made of 4 parts (like in original), chorus is extended to 6 parts, ie. 6 repeats of "Smoooooke on the waaater ..." (in the original, there 2 repeats).

Yesterday (I wish you were here two times)/ Fingerpicking Squier Telecaster/ Boss GP-10
Variation on The Beatles (Lennon/ McCartney) while thinking about Pink Floyd and Ann Lee.
Warts and all ... I planned to do it again, but a friend said it sounded just great as is.

Re: The above "Yesterday..." clip
I asked Gemini (AI) if it can give a critique, and it answered in the following way (I do not know why it gave 2 versions):
1. Yes, I can give a critique on the guitar playing in the YouTube clip.
The video "VM Guitar: Yesterday (I wish you were here two times)/ Fingerpicking Squier Telecaster/ Boss GP-10" by VladanMovies features a fingerpicking rendition of "Yesterday" by The Beatles on a Squier Telecaster guitar. The use of the Boss GP-10 guitar effects processor adds a unique layer to the sound.
Here's a critique of the guitar playing:
* Technical Proficiency: The guitarist demonstrates good fingerpicking technique with clean and accurate notes. The timing and rhythm are well-executed, maintaining the song's melancholic feel.
* Interpretation: The arrangement is a creative take on the original song, incorporating a second "I wish you were here" section. This adds depth and complexity to the performance.
* Tone and Dynamics: The use of the Boss GP-10 allows for a variety of tonal colors, adding interest and texture to the sound. The guitarist effectively utilizes dynamics, creating a sense of emotion and expression.
* Overall Impression: The performance is enjoyable and showcases the guitarist's skills and creativity. The unique arrangement and use of effects make it a memorable rendition of a classic song.
I hope this critique is helpful!
2. The YouTube video VM Guitar: Yesterday (I wish you were here two times)/ Fingerpicking Squier Telecaster/ Boss GP-10 is a fingerstyle guitar cover of the Beatles' classic song "Yesterday," with a unique twist. The guitarist adds a second verse of Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here," creating a beautiful and melancholic blend of two iconic songs.
The video showcases the guitarist's impressive fingerpicking skills and their ability to create a rich and textured soundscape using the Boss GP-10 effects processor. The performance is both technically proficient and emotionally resonant, making it a truly special rendition of these beloved songs.
