Default Stevie Wonder - Superstition (Fingerstyle Guitar Cover)

Been working on this a bit and decided to record it. It's "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder. Unfortunately this is not my arrangement, I found this arrangement on YouTube by the great guitarist Adam Rafferty.

He makes awesome Stevie Wonder (and many more artist) in a kinda funky fingerstyle way, really great guitarist !

Anyone here that also played this? What are you guys working on lately ??

Marko, welcome to the AGF! Glad to have you and I hope you'll make good use of the Show & Tell.

Very nice version of Adam's arrangement! I enjoyed it. I've heard Adam play it... he's remarkable, but you did it well. Hope you'll post some more.

If you'll check out the FAQs, down at the bottom of the page are some helpful tips. See if this helps with posting videos...

Great stuff, Marko, really enjoyed it, and welcome to AGF!

BTW, if you are not familiar with the late Pete Huttlinger's version you might enjoy it, too.

Looking forward to hearing more from you

Great job. Coincidentally, that was the name of my LA band in the mid-70's. That was our "cover" song and caused the band name.

Thank you all for kind words, I didn't expect so much support out on the start!

I heard Pete's version, more bluesy , I might even learn his version too just to see what he's got going on in there but definitely as funky as Adam, they are both great!

Yep I figured the embed, thanks!

Wow it's very impressive! Your playing looks very "comfortable" for such a hard song. I did a cover of it on my channel too, check it if you want, I add some variations of my own Keep up the good playing

@JulienC I will check it up in a minute, wasn't online for 2-3 days now ! Thank you for compliments but it can always be better I actually recorded 2 times (because of 2 camera angles) then as I change the angle ofcourse I changed the audio but I removed this video now because it had terrible sound and I recorded new audio and video and it will be up in a few days !

@Dustinfurlow thank you, means a lot from someone who rocks the guitar ! As I said, video is currently down and it will be up in a few days with better (normal this time) sound then before!
