[numbaphive]

Learnt more in the last hour than I have in the previous 10 years. Thank you for the massive effort in putting this together. Cheers.

[alexpaton]

I learned some of these about 50 years ago when you had to use your ears and sometimes play the vinyl 45 s at 33 and a third which changed the key. What you have put on there is a treat and people should be very grateful for this kind of service.

Le compteur grimpe, le reconnaissance aussi, bravo pour ces 100 riffs idéals débutants

[markdos]

Buenísimo. Gran idea. Que genial poder escuchar cada uno de ellos con total claridad y detalle visual.
👍👍🇨🇱

[karstenonstage]

Die Präsentation der Songs gefällt mir sehr gut, da können sich besonders Rookies schnell ein paar Inspirationen abschauen die ein kleines Erfolgsgefühl bereiten. Daumen hoch und bitte mehr davon :-)

[stormyduude]

Not sure why this has so little views when they're all perfect, sound great and is a great way to practice sight reading and picking up a ton of great riffs. Also, the fact this was done in a row is amazing and props to you. Very well done.
