Leonard Cohen Hallelujah
I am with you unclewalt. This is another great lesson, with a lot of work into.However it kinds of leave a bit of frustration not to be able to focus on the play through that sounds so good. It has been the same for some other songs (Rhiannon,wish you were here). Yesterday was perfect for that. It showed the strumming or simpler arpeggio and the voicing section was there with the tabs. I hope you guys will consider this request and add the section with the voices or at least the tabs.

Great job Neil, I've only looked at the playthrough and the behind the scenes vids so far and the TABS,never having played this before, I've almost nailed it with such a brief insight. So with the other lesson parts that will top it off. As for writing a TAB for the play through I don't think people realise just how difficult that it is. I like the format with what you teach as you can use the playthrough as a basis for your own improvisation on the main theme. Ability to improvise only comes with enhanced knowledge and experience and lots of patience and practice
Classical gas is actually not as hard to TAB as it can be done in one voice, I'm not talking about playing difficulty, I have tabbed things i can't always play.
However, when Neil combines Rythym with melody thats two voices on the staff. I've tried to TAB some of Neils work and its very difficult, even for Neil who probably doesn't play everything exactly the same when he's improvising would have difficulty in tabbing his own playing. Sometimes in improvisations there are a lot of ghost notes and they are at times hard to pick out. NOt saying it can't be done but it would take a long time to get a close simile of whats played.
I think the demo of the play through shows and leaves us something to aspire to.
I believe Neil wants people to be capable of eventually doing their own thing not to be carbon copies of him.
