You wondered this week if anyone would be interested in an instrumental of Trilogy. Well, I bloody am! It's the kind of lesson I joined TG for! Please.

<t>Hi Andy<br/> <br/> Hi from sunny East Anglia. There's a few people on here from the UK. I joined after having been playing guitar for over 30 ears, but had hit the wall. If I'd had access to this stuff then (impossible, of course) not only would I have been a better player, but I'd have become on...

Sorry, 7/8. Bloody iPhones

It"s Hoedown, by Caravan. In 6/8, from For Girls Who Grow Plump In The Night. I should know. I bought it the week it came out. And I'm from Kent , their home county. Great track, great band.

<t>Thanks very much, all of you. I think the issue has been that I've been trying to play my finger picking pieces and exercises at too fast a tempo and slowing down has helped a lot.

It would be perfect to be able to make that part playable...

<t>AHA! Ok, I get it. But, why is the sheet music scored with an f sharp on the fifth line- the key signature, as I understand it - as this indicates that the piece is written in G? <br/> <br/> Thanks for all your responses, btw.<br/> <br/> Edited: Er, hang on. The key sig would be exactly the same,...

Is it something to do with relative minors or something?

Whatever the reason, it's a pig to play.

<t>Well done, Dan. It is a very tricky piece and you've done a great job so far. It's always work in progress as far as I'm concerned, and if you keep at it as you obviously have been then soon enough it will all fall into place, and the hairs on the back of your neck will stand on end - believe me,...
