How long have you been playing?
I play electric guitar mainly in the style of The Shadows.
Since they first started, I have been an aficionado of The Shadows and have loved their music. Their style is generally relaxed and easy listening.
I particularly like their more recent covers of famous ballads and love songs.
I started learning the guitar when I was about 14 years old. I then spent the odd 50 years not getting any better. More recently I have taken it a little more seriously, and YouTube (OldGuitarMonkey) gives me that added incentive to improve. I thoroughly enjoy playing and find it relaxing.
I hope you enjoy listening.
