Hi Everyone,
Today's Target members only lesson is a new Fly On The Wall.
This lesson was really an ear-training diversion that evolved during our work on Rhiannon. As we worked on the Fleetwood Mac song I realized that she needed a better picture of how the melody went independently of everything else.
Taking a look at a much simpler melody seemed like the right angle to try. Grandfather’s Clock is a great song to enter the world of alternate bass fingerstyle playing and one of those I teach to almost all my students.
Enjoy!

Newest Target members only lesson - Fly On The Wall - Grandfather’s Clock with Sandy
I enjoyed this lesson very much as grandfathers clock was something I have wanted to learn since my visit to Los gatos last April. finally, just moments ago, I felt like I "got it", at least the basic part of it. I was wondering if it would be too much to ask to have a brief demonstration in the next weekly roundup how one might jazz it up a bit. Not a full lesson, just a short play through of a more complex version of it. Thanks, sandy, for letting us in on your lesson.
Hi Jay
I'm going to see Neil on tuesday, so I'll ask him to expound a little bit on different ways to play grandfathers clock if you like. I haven't really worked on that song much yet anyway because I sort of ventured off to learn fishing blues and Rhiannon, but I'd like to get back to learning it now.

This is a great idea. I will see what I can do soon. A thought might be for you to upload what you have to the Upload For Review channel/thread. I am planning to start Reviews ASAP and have decided to just post my Reviews at the same YT channel for everybody, not just Target members.
