Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live..

John Fahey was once of the most influential American guitarists from the time he entered the music scene in the late 1950s. He played in many open tunings, generally with fairly simple chord shapes but complex picking patterns, and heavily inspired the next generation of players, notably Leo Kottke, among others. In this lesson we look at *Give Me Cornbread When I’m Hungry.*It is played in Open G and features a few sections revolving around different chords in the key of G. The main point of this lesson is to take some of his ideas and change them around, really improvising and recreating the song every time you play it.

Enjoy this Level 6 lesson.

Finally a John Fahey lesson. I was wondering when Neil was going to put one up. I really like the way he invites you to make it your own. Thanks. I hope he is planning to do a lesson on Leo Kottke's version of "THE LAST STEAM ENGINE TRAIN"
