Huey Lewis and the News - Walking on a Thin Line - Cover

"Walking On a Thin Line" by Huey Lewis and the News, was eleased in 1984 as the fifth and final single from their 1983 album, Sports. Five singles! Considered one of the band's more serious songs, the Sacramento Bee thought the song was about a veteran's post-war stress. However, the song is really about the thoughts of serving Vietnam War soldiers.

These videos serve as lessons on how I play this bunch of Pop, Rock, and Reggae songs - sometimes as a single guitarist playing the only guitar part, though that's rare. And sometimes if there is more than one guitar part, then trying to find the single good path through the tune. I complete one pass, demonstrating different Rhythm parts, styles, and techniques. There is no talking. No discussion. No note-for-note explanations. As such, for clarity, my guitar is supposed to be louder in the mix than it would ever be in a live setting. But, if you really want to hear what I hear, do what I do and put on a good pair headphones with great bass response! It's worth it.

Why this is important to Rhythm Guitar:
It's not.

This one is just a gas.

Nice job as usual and another interesting guitar. It would be nice to explain your signal chain that you use on each song. Nice tone on this one as well.
