Here is our latest Target Lesson, I love this lesson as it clearly identifies an earlier link to some more modern classics...Available now in Target
Mr. Bojangles, written by Jerry Jeff Walker is a classic American folk-country tune, even though the subject matter and time signature are a bit unusual. It is in 3/4 time and features a descending bass line similar to These Days by Jackson Browne and America by Paul Simon. This is a great lesson for improving the accuracy of hitting individual bass notes as part of a strumming pattern.
It has been covered by hundreds of artists, most notably the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Sammy Davis Jr., and even Bob Dylan.
It is a Level 4 song, hope you enjoy it..
