Fantastic stuff Pavel, I'll take a look...

[JF]

Brilliant Pavel as always 

[quizzaciously]

Here's "True Love Will Never Fade" for you. Just had one of the most inspirational moments in my time working on Mark's songs, hope it will make it into a good video. And it was one of the fastest videos ever, just a couple of days for learning, coming up with things to say, and recording. Speaking of inspiration, I still think that my main goal with my channel is to give people inspiration. From the emails that I read, from the comments I receive, I understand that I'm not a guitar teacher at all. And my videos are not "lessons", it's just me trying to share the inspiration that I took from 15 years of being a fan of this music and this is what I'm able to do and really proud of. I have inspiration in spades! And as Bob Dylan said, “The highest purpose of art is to inspire." Pavel

I loved it!    It's one of my favourite MK songs and your voice was pretty close to MKs!

Thank you! I wish I'd had a deeper voice though, but give it 30-40 years and I'll get there

TLWNF - awesome Pavel, well done...
One of my faves to play myself....

Might just have to record myself playing the MK strat along with your recording!!

[Justme]

Wise words, true love will never fade! And here I am, screaming out some powerchords on my axe, because of limited talent. Limited time could also count as an excuse

However, beautiful playing as always. Stick to it  !

I'd play along with my own recording should I own more guitars, but I let this for others to do!

It's funny because I do nothing but strumming on my channel. Occasionally I'd play some solos or pre-written stuff, but generally speaking, my goal is to celebrate guitar strumming as an art form. And so it doesn't require tons of talent to strum some chords, however, it does require a lot of taste!

Guys, I'm not a fan of re-uploading my 7-year-old videos, but I had to do it because there was a major sound glitch on iOS/macOS platform that I have never seen before all these years, and I confirmed the issue through people I know and the problem was still here, so I had to reupload the video. That was the only solution. But I also managed to clear my copyrights issues and made an interactive tablature for my version. Comments for this arrangement are in the description.

Thank you! It's an old video but it holds up pretty well. A lot has changed since 2014, but the song's still the same, and that's great.

New video: The Last Laugh. I'm a huge Van Morrison fan so it's one of my favourite MK songs for sure. It's very simple, but has some tricks up its sleeve, not as easy to play as it may seem! Very enjoyable to sing and play, so enjoy! Pavel.

great, Pavel 
I love this song too. I remember an interview where the journalist said "this song as 'welll worked' arpeggios"
And Mark replied : "yes. For the solo I used the 64 strat, like on thr STP song"

[Knopflerfan]

I can only echo the above Pavel, again you have broken down the guitar parts perfectly and given an in depth analysis to a really lovely piece of MKs work - Thankyou...
