This instrumental track “Wonderful Land” was originally made famous by the Shadows. It was first released in 1962. It then held at number one in the UK singles chart for eight weeks. The composer, Jerry Lordan, is also known for the big hit “Apache” recorded by the Shadows in 1960. “Wonderful Land” was recorded in 1961 with the line up at the time being Hank Marvin on lead guitar, Bruce Welch on guitar, Jet Harris on bass, and Tony Meehan on drums. Norrie Paramore, the producer, added the strings to the track sometime later. “Wonderful Land" has been covered by a number of artists including Mike Olfield, Mark Knopfler and Tony Iomi and probably not last and certainly not least our friend “OldGuitarMonkey” Dave Monk.
Study Notes:
This version features the transcription of Hank Marvin's performance on the 50 Golden Greats album. It includes chord symbols. The synced delay section is a more accurate representation of the underlying picked rhythm than the earlier videos. I have still included as many open position fingerings as I could to make it more beginner friendly. If you are a more advanced player you shouldn't have a problem transferring to your preferred closed position fingerings.
I hope you find this useful
Happy Playing!
