Re: Greatest Album from Front to Back?

<r>Wow, lots of good choices and great memories. Cosmic- just last week I was listening to Shawn Phillips! I've always loved his voice. I still like the front and back covers of Second Contribution. There are a few Simon and Garfunkel albums I listened to often.<br/> I still have lots of vinyl inclu...

Re: Who is still here from the begining of Totally Guitars ?

<t>Some of us still lurk around from time to time. It looks like I joined on the same day as Willem, March 20, 2009.<br/> <br/> I dropped out of the Target Program a while back. I wasn't putting in the necessary time to learn each song. I got sidetracked with new songs, as well as putting in more ti...

Re: Calling all lefties - Stringed instruments - Any advice for parents and aunties of left-handed kids?

<t>Michelle, another advantage to playing "the other way" from most is that few people will noodle with your guitar. One of our lead players in our band is left-handed. Naturally, we give him a lot of grief about being backwards, but it really keeps people from picking up his guitars (which he doesn...

Re: Roy Clark, THE MASTER

<t>UNDERRATED??? The music community has known for years that Roy is an outstanding musician. Go to YouTube and watch some of his videos. I've always loved to watch him play Malaguena. While you're at it, look at the early videos of Jose Feliciano. WOW!!<br/> While on the subject, Jerry Reed and Gle...

Re: >>New Target and Pay Per Lesson release - Ghost Riders In The Sky - Johnny Cash

<t>Cool lesson, good oldie, I can't wait to get started! When I saw the heading for the lesson my first thought was "I wonder if Bear has seen this?" Well, Rick, there you were in the first response!<br/> I know you'll enjoy it. I think about you when I hear it. We should talk soon.<br/> <br/> Jerry...

Re: Simon & Garfunkel April Come She Will by drfuji

Hey, great job! It brought me back to my teenage years, listening to that and other S&G songs on my 8-track tapes! I really enjoyed the fingerpicking. Again, great job.

Re: Poll: Do you record yourself to gauge your progress?

<t>I replied "sometimes" because I recently got a Zoom Q3 recorder. I videoed our band on two occasions so far. WOW, what an eye-opener! It really was helpful to see exactly how we sound and where we need to improve (like less wasted time between songs) in a gig. The second recording, a month later,...
