Hi Everyone,

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

*Moonshadow*is one of Cat Stevens’ most popular tunes and fun to play on the guitar. It uses a combination of different right hand techniques, including fingerpicking with a mono-bass pattern (repeating the same string rather than alternating), a hybrid picking-strumming technique, as well as a bigger strumming pattern where the ‘Invisible Pick’ technique works best. The song was originally released on the 1971 album Teaser And The Firecat.

Hi there and welcome!

I've listened to Neil's play through, looked at the tabs, listened to Cat S., and really, the first measure is built around a D-chord, no G involved. And Neil really plays it as in written in the tab.

Hope you still got your hair..
