I recently saw a Travis picking version of this, and it was great, a country blues with a quirky twist; I thought it would be a bit different from the usual, and a worthwhile exploration of finger-picking arrangements of left field songs.

House-keeping!

The lesson on Respect by Aretha Franklin has the Free Preview link from No Woman No Cry attached.

Just a little more house-keeping: the title page on Part 2 is the same as Part 3 on "Till There Was You".

Roger that, Neil.

Just for info, there's an extraneous posting of "All Day and All of the Night" under the two-part lesson by Max on "All Apologies".

You were talking about extensions, and the same sort of concept being played on lower string-sets. Just wondering and hoping...

Are there any strategies you'd recommend for increasing speed of the right hand?

I hit a natural speed limit on banjo rolls and general fast picking and don't know the best way to break the speed limit.
