Rory Laird | Practice Session 28 June 2023 | Blackbird (The Beatles)

▶️ Watch on 3Speak

Today I just had this desire to pull out the guitar (as opposed to the baritone uke)!

If I'm being honest, this wasn't entirely at random. When I woke up this morning, I had a different song in mind for my lunch break practice time, but I saw this post from @anna-newkey, which made me wonder if I could remember how to play Blackbird...as it turns out...not completely lol - but the main part I did mostly remember. This one will need a redemption round someday ;)

...also, I'm shocked at how sore my hands are after playing so little; I guess the ukulele's have spoiled me, and that's why I love them! But some songs, such as this one, I think benefit from the guitar's wider range.

    Wow, glad I could inspire! haha!!
    Great job, love it! 😍
    I covered this last year for the open mic and keep meaning to revisit it..

    Seems your updates worked.. I often feel you have to patient until it's finished updating across networks, but that's only a guess..

              That's a song I never learned on guitar, but I have seen @anna-newkey play it live. Paul McCartney is a musical genius.

                I can’t copy and paste in the 3speak upload webpage, so if I’m adding a link or something best left to c&p, I usually just do what I can and edit the post through Ecency later…but this one won’t let me edit.

                Here are the three changes I intended to make directly after posting:

                1. the broken link should have gone to:
                  this post

                2. Original poster’s name is @anna-newkey

                3. Cover image for the post was going to change to:

                @eddiespino, any ideas why I might be unable to make updates to this post? (Thank you!!!)

                  This is amazing @rorykl. It’s my first time listening to and I want to listening to more of your performance already. And yet you said you have not play the guitar for quite a while, you are simply an amazing musician @rorykl
