Hi Everyone,

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

In 1985 Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits released one of their greatest albums, Brothers In Arms, which included The Man’s Too Strong.

The song opens with a little folk picking melody, which progresses into a somewhat country ballad, followed by an almost symphonic, crashing sequence, before returning to subsequent verses. This lesson covers all the rhythm guitar parts, as well as the unusual outro, really another new section.

Enjoy this level 6 lesson!

Neil

This looks to be a great lesson.

It's an amazing song on acoustic with your magic.

Thanks for sharing

Dermot

Ask and thy shall receive! :laugh:
Thanks Neil, this is just great, so many subtleties in this lesson. Seeing as I've been tinkering with this song for the past few days and was actually playing it when I tuned in to TG a few moments ago, its really a blast being able to go straight to to the lesson. I'm just peeved that its been up for a couple of hours already without me seeing it... :) Happy Chris!

Thank you, thank you! When I watched the Espresso Love lesson and heard Neil say more Dire Straits was on the way this song immediately popped into my head. So great. It's a six and a challenge for me but it looks like fun.
