SLOW DOWN BEATLES GUITAR LESSON ON A GRETSCH 6122

Paul requested this one - taken from the Beatles Long Tall Sally EP, Slow down is one of the early rock and roll covers they played at the start of their career. It was originally written and recorded by Larry Williams in 1957. It's a 12 bar rocker in C with a riff which repeats through the whole song. In his book Revolution in the Head (which is excellent by the way) Ian MacDonald wrote that this was the worst cover the Beatles ever recorded! Maybe but it's still pretty good fun to play! I hope you like it. Thanks for all the requests which are getting done weekly.
