About Me
Report
I was born in Wales where I taught myself to play the guitar in my early teens by listening to the recordings of the Beatles, the Stones, Bob Dylan, The Hollies, The Animals and The Kinks - to name but a few. I've a great passion and love for the guitar - right from the early days I practiced many hours each day and within a few years I was playing in local rock bands.
Pop / Rock

If you would like to learn how to play Your Song on the guitar, I offer one-to-one guitar lessons at my home studio in south London or on-line via Skype. This is an arrangement I did for finger style guitar of the Elton John hit "Your Song". It is a ballad composed and performed by English musician Elton John with lyrics by his longtime collaborator Bernie Taupin.
Flamenco
Report
Serranas are believed to have originated in the 19th century in the area of Ronda (Malaga), and are based on a folk song whose story-type verses tell of life in the mountains among bandits and smugglers. Serranas are a form of songs and dances which have the same rhythm as "seguiriya". Although they have a different mood and texture, some of the same variations may be transposed.
Blues / Ragtime
Report
This is my favourite fingerstyle blues which I first heard played by the American guitarist, Fran Banish, on a compilation album from Solid Air Records called 2 Blue 4 Words. The first time I heard Sycamore Stroll being played by Fran Banish - many years ago - I instantly knew I had to learn to play it so I sent an email to Fran to ask for the Tab or music and he kindly replied but said he had never written it down.
Lessons

The styles of guitar lessons I teach include Pop, Rock, folk, Blues, Ragtime, Celtic, Bossa Nova, Latin American, Classical and Flamenco. With the aid of guitar tablature (tab), I will help and encourage you to learn any of the above styles and show you how to develop all the techniques required to play them either on Electric, Acoustic or Spanish guitar.

The best guitarist around. Had lessons for many years and it has been a real pleasure to learn with Bob. He is a gentleman, patient and worth his weight in gold. He taught me as a child and also later as an adult.
Bob teaches all different styles from classical guitar, electric, flamenco, blue and many more besides.
Also wonderful at weddings and other celebrations. Worth taking the guitar up and being inspired.
