>> Newest Target members only lesson - Not Fade Away with Fred

[TGCheryle]

Hi Everyone,

Today's Target members only lesson is a new Fly On The Wall.

Fred and I had messed with a few Buddy Holly tunes over the last couple of months and decided to get a little more specific with Not Fade Away in this lesson. We broke down the strumming pattern and listened to it a few times to really dial in on the parts and the arrangement.

Hope you enjoy this.

Its amazing how it can work to get a rhythm down when you call a chord ghost or shadow,,my two hands have to work as a team but my brain does'nt,,yet !

so most of the time it are ghost chords,,I think..

Check out what Neil is doing with his right hand from 13:20 onwards..... that is a whole lesson in itself!
Can you co-ordinate your fingers like that in perfect time? I thought my fingers pretty much obeyed me... but I can't quite catch that 4th beat like that! That is one cool piece of co-ordination well worth practising.

Not just the speed of the fingers but the precise rhythm they snap out... I can't move my fingers like that... can't get the instructions out fast enough!
