Hi Everyone,
Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live.
Big Yellow Taxi is from Joni Mitchell’s third album, Ladies Of The Canyon and is a lot of fun to play. It is done in Open D Tuning (D A D F# A D) using some pretty easy chord shapes. The challenge in this lesson is being loose and free with the strumming, not really thinking of it as patterns but more a matter of getting the accents in the right places.
They ever told me to watch/observe Neil very well,,what I saw was his strumming hand very close to the neck on a few chords and a bit back on other chords...would that count for us too???

If I were brave enough to post a video.... it would be easier for Neil to comment on what I was doing right!
He wouldn't need to say anything then!

It should be compulsory to be able to play this song for anyone who owns a guitar!
