\"Strawberry Fields Forever,\" acoustic guitar instrumental "Strawberry Fields Forever," acoustic guitar instrumental
Posted by: adrianholovaty

Video duration: 198 seconds

This is my arrangement of "Strawberry Fields Forever," the Beatles' 1967 single (and one of my Beatles favorites).
This arrangement is heavily inspired by Laurence Juber's arrangement from his fantastic "LJ Plays the Beatles" album, but I believe he plays that one in an open tuning, and open tunings frighten me.

Posted by: adrianholovaty

Video duration: 157 seconds

This is my own arrangement of the original Super Mario Bros. World 1 theme song. Every YouTube guitarist has to record this at some point, right? :-)
Guitar players, I apologize in advance that I have no transcriptions or tabs of this arrangement. It's my own version, and I'd rather play guitar or record another video than spend time transcribing.

\"Curb Your Enthusiasm\" theme song, solo acoustic guitar "Curb Your Enthusiasm" theme song, solo acoustic guitar
Posted by: adrianholovaty

Video duration: 152 seconds

This is a sloppy rendition of the "Curb Your Enthusiasm" theme song. The piece is called "Frolic" and was written by Luciano Michelini.
Note that I play the entire piece, not just the bit that plays while the show begins. It's a bit long.
See my other videos for other acoustic-guitar renditions of theme songs.

Posted by: adrianholovaty

Video duration: 130 seconds

This is an attempt at "Schon Rosmarin," as arranged by Chet Atkins on his 1955 album "In Three Dimensions." I didn't manage to do a note-for-note copy, but it's close enough for YouTube. :)
