2 Stars “Teach Yourself how to play Pink Floyd”
I’m an intermediate guitarist and I wanted to actually LEARN how to play David Gilmore’s solos. The guitarist in this video has tremendous skill and plays beautifully, unfortunately he understands nothing of teaching someone how to play guitar.
Jamie whizzes through the lesson, rolling through it as if you already know the material and fingering. There is little attempt made to stop, take a moment, and really show you what he’s doing, rather he rolls through it and you are unable to keep up because you can’t watch what he’s doing and find your fingering at the same time.
Totally frustrating in my opinion, but most guitar instructional videos are the same way.
If you want to learn how to play Pink Floyd you’re going to need the tableature. If you already know it and want to refine your technique then this is perfect for you. I have to teach myself everything once again, and THEN go back and improve my technique with this video.
So if you’re new to guitar, don’t bother, its just too fast.
4 Stars Pretty good
I bought this after i bought the Nate Lapointe “Dark side of the moon”. I like Pink Floyd and I wanted to learn some of the stuff on the guitar. I give Nate’s Dvd a 4 also neither came with tabs and neither came with a book. The teaching styles of both guys are pretty good with a slight nod to Nate. He goes slower and it is alot easier for a beginner to keep up with. Be prepared to use the “rewind” button on your dvd player alot. But once you get the songs down these are great dvd’s. Both of them. All i can say is I want more floyd from either one or both of these guys.
5 Stars Nothing but Pink Floyd!
Although I am at best a novice electric guitar player, I am finding (still making my way through it) this instructional DVD very exceptional. Several sections take more work and much repeating, but very possible with practice. With luck, I will have completed the disc and will be feeling much more comfortable with most of the songs that Jamie Humphries covers. Highly recommend for anyone that wants to make some effort in learning the songs contained on this DVD and plays guitar at a novice or higher level.
4 Stars Learn the songs you love!
As an intermediate guitar player, I’ve always found the music books and the on-line video lessons didn’t have that personal and hand’s on touch that most of us need. With the Learn to Play video, I was able to watch. learn and play at my own speed. The lessons are clear, thorough and very helpful. thanks to the backing tracks included I can jam along and imagine the giant pig flying over my head at a Pink Floyd concert!
