I've been playing the guitar and singing in a local cover band called 'Sound Bites' in my hometown (Eger, Hungary) for the last 2 or 3 years. We had a cool gig on the 1st of May but the band broke up suddenly the next day. Luckily a video of the concert, recorded by my friend Krisztián Pásztor, remained as a memory.

Az elmúlt két-három évben a feldolgozásokat játszó, egri Sound Bites-ban gitároztam és énekeltem, akikkel május elsején léptünk fel Tiszaújvárosban. A banda másnap hirtelen feloszlott. De emlékbe megmaradt a koncertről egy videó, amit Pásztor Krisztián barátom készített.

Writing a guitar solo without having a backing track or having a chord progression is unusual, at least for me. But that's exactly what I did for the second item of my one-year-old, two-videos-only YouTube channel, Leisure Guitar.

My YouTube guitar channel, Leisure Guitar is almost one year old and it contains two videos only (for the time being). But I'm very happy with it anyway! I've found great free(!) tools that helped me to create these music clips and I've learned a lot in the process already. So I decided to give a sneak peek here to the creation of the first music video. And I'll tell you about the second one in an upcoming post soon.

“Pass the Baton” by Paul Hindmarsh is ideal for that! It's so cool that I’ve just transcribed it so it can be practiced and learned. (Warning! It is not so easy as it seems to be when listening the first time. 🧐)
