Hi Everyone,

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

This Old Guitar is from Neil Young’s album Prairie Wind. It uses a very simple progression with a short solo section, or interlude. The lesson is done as an ear training exercise, so don’t print the chart until you have given it a listen. The strumming is done using fingers, thumb to hit bass notes and strumming with the index or the invisible pick.

Enjoy this level 3 lesson.

Neil,
I've always loved this song and kinda figured that it was in drop D or double drop D because the sound is so much like Harvest moon, another favorite of mine. I have just never taken the time to work it out though. Thanks for the lesson on this one, I'm going to thoroughly enjoy learning it. I do wish that you had put the lyrics up, but no big deal. I'll just listen to the cd a few more times until I get them memorized !

Thanks,

Dave

Dave,

Glad you like the song. Maybe the attachment went up a bit late but I see the Chart there. Let me know if you see something different.

Neil

Thanks Neil for another great lesson.
This simple and beautiful song, it sure does bring to memory the Harvest Moon feeling.
Great lesson for ear training,
Abilio

Neil,

I guess I spoke too soon. The chart is indeed there.

Thanks again, Now I'll get to work on it and who knows maybe I'll even post the results.

Dave
