Hi Everyone,

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

Nature’s Way is a classic from the band Spirit, led by guitarist Randy California. It is from their fourth album, Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus and features almost minimalist style guitar playing with a mix of steady bass notes and accented chords. The lesson covers syncopation and how to understand musical directions (i.e. DC al Coda) as well.

Enjoy this level 5 lesson.

This is one of my all-time favorite songs, and one I've been playing off and on the past year.

Neil, Neil, Neil. Wow, I never would have thought this one would pop up. I love this song as it really takes me back to my runnin fun days.

The muting techniques are something I really want to get down a lot better, but the directions signs, well, I'm gonna have to watch that segment a lot. I have the basic understanding of what each symbol represents. My problem is WHEN to use them. In this tab, we pass a lot of instructional info, before we activate any of them. I realize this song has a natural progression that I understand. But a song that I've not heard before would really trip me up. And my goal is to understand when to start the instructional stuff, so I don't over shoot a measure.

Otherwise, I love this one. Great job Neil.

Scott

Hi There
I had never heard this band before...but hey that was a really good song.
And me being 45 yo now I have heard this as a kid but never knew who did it...
Anyway a really catchy song and much fun to learn playin...

I also lloked into the band Spririt on wikipedia and also heard you tell about their history...
And that was interesting to with a sad ending of Randy dying saving his son from drowning...

I will try get an album of these guys cause im rather sure theres much more good songs in there...as you mentioned Taurus ->Pre Stairway2Heaven and more
Maybe you could find some more lessons to do on this band...

Many thanks for bringing Spirit to my mind...
Best regards Micael from Sweden :)
