'You're a Lie' By Slash - Full Cover

I decided to have a little break from recording covers from the Use Your Illusion albums and record the new single by Slash called 'You're a Lie'. I can't wait for the album release in May - 'Apocolyptic Love'.

Original Song - 'Fighting Feeling'

A lot of people have been asking me to upload some orignal music so I have been busy collaborating with Andrew Lee Bowen and Gizla who have sung on this track. Recorded in my home studio and mixed by myself.

About the song......ever been frustrated with your job? Think you can do something more and be something more? This is what 'Fighting Feeling' is about!

The footage is just of me playing until I get the guys back in the studio to film their parts. Please leave a comment and click like if your diggin. Also please share with facebook/twitter/youtube ect ect :-)

Hopefully get them both back in the studio again ASAP as I have another few tracks for them to work on.

Let me know if people would even think of buying an album full off this kind of original music?

Use Your Illusion II - Covers

 Also just started work on Use Your Illusion II - 'Knockin' On Heavens Door' to kick things off. Going to go through the double albums over next few weeks 

USE YOUR ILLUSION I - Covers

Since finishing the whole of the Appetite For Destruction album by Guns N' Roses I have now started on  the Use Your Illusion albums! GNR are one of my favourate bands and quite simply I would not be playing guitar without them.

Same as with the previous album I will be playing all the instruments - the drums will be programmed in midi and no vocals. If you would like to sing on the track or play the drums please get in contact.

Please continue to show support and share my videos.

If you are either a singer or songwriter who lives in Guildford or London please get in contact info@karlgolden.org

RECORDING APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION ALBUM

Over the next few weeks I will be recording every single song off the Guns N Roses album 'Appetite For Destruction'. I will be playing all the instruments apart from the drums and vocals.

Think you can sing like Axl Rose? Play like Steven Adler? Get involved in the 'Vocal Challenge'!

Send me a message on my Youtube page and let me know you are interested in appearing in one of my videos or more....whether singing or playing drums.

***MUST HAVE ABILITY TO FILM YOURSELF SINGING THE WHOLE PART AND RECORDING EQUIPMENT TO RECORD VOCALS SO YOU CAN SEND THEM SEPERATELY TO ME***

I will edit the footage you send me and upload the video

***EPIC SOLOS***

Ever since I can remember I have wanted nothing more than to be a guitarist in a rock band. As a youngster I used to get very frustrated in not being able to play or understand great solos like Eruption, Free bird, A whole lotta love, Beat it ect ect. I have now made it my mission for the next few months to force myself to learn all these great epic solos! I am 25 now and finally feel I have the technique, knowledge, equipment and passion to learn anything I set my mind to. There are other reasons that I have chosen to do this. I feel that learning some of the greatest solos will improve your playing; giving you new techniques or lick ideas that ultimately help mould you into a guitarist with a voice and unique abilities.

Please subscribe to me on YouTube and follow me on this journey I'm taking. Thumbs up as well please to let me know I'm doing a good job  Also please feel free to challenge me with new pieces to learn. I am saving up for some better equipment to record higher quality videos where I can give detailed lessons on how to play these epic solos I am trying to conquer!

All you have to remember as an aspiring guitarist is that at the end of the day your favourite players are just human beings and simply worked very hard to be as good as they are and it’s possible for you to do the same with the right attitude and belief!
