Today's Target and pay per lesson release is now live.

Living In The Past*was released as a single in the U.K. in 1969 but became Jethro Tull’s first Top 40 hit in the U.S. when it was released there in 1972. It is one of a very small number of songs written in 5/4 time and the lesson goes over strumming in this time very extensively.

It also uses barre chords exclusively, high on the neck, changing quickly. It can be played using 4-string version of the common barre chords and this approach is covered as well.

Hope you enjoy this


Cheers

Matt

The TG library is such a treasure trove that I've lost track of what's in there. At some point I'd like to get into this just to get 5/4 under my fingers; which is such a cool time signature.

Nice find uncle Walt.


Thanks Neil!

Thx again Uncle Walt... i hadn't looked at this lesson before either... i seem to have the 5/4 thing down (at least on this song haha) but gosh those barre chords are exhausting !!
