Canon Rock PDF guitar sheet music 2 types
The Canon Rock PDF is available in two of the most popular versions, one by JerryC and the other by Lim Jeong-hyun. Canon Rock is a highly challenging song that incorporates advanced electric guitar techniques and has gained immense popularity on YouTube.
The origins of Canon Rock can be traced back to JerryC, a guitarist from Taiwan, who was the first to arrange the song for electric guitar. Subsequently, a Korean guitarist named Lim Jeong-hyun gained even more popularity with his version of the song, surpassing the original video’s fame. As a result, guitarists from all around the world began uploading their own arrangement and cover videos of this iconic piece.
1. JerryC – Canon Rock
The reason why JerryC’s video had fewer views compared to Lim Jeong-hyun’s video can be attributed to the internet environment of that time. JerryC originally uploaded his video on his personal website. To watch JerryC’s video, viewers had to find his website and use external plugins to play it, which made it difficult for many people to access. Moreover, this was a time before YouTube became popular, so the video-sharing platform we know today did not exist.
2.임정현 – Canon Rock
It’s important to clarify that Lim Jeong-hyun didn’t intentionally “steal” JerryC’s glory. Lim Jeong-hyun was not a professional guitarist at the time, and he uploaded his cover video of JerryC’s arrangement on a Korean electric guitar community website called ‘mule‘ purely as a hobby. However, his rise to global fame was largely due to the development of YouTube and the platform’s ability to reach a wide audience, which resulted in his video accumulating an incredible number of views. It was a convergence of factors, including the growth of YouTube, that contributed to Lim Jeong-hyun’s worldwide recognition.
