Hi Everyone,

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

Water Song has been one of the most popular songs among my fingerpicking students for about 40 years now. It first appeared in 1972 on Burgers, Hot Tuna’s first studio album after releasing two live ones.

Nowadays Jorma plays it a bit more restrained compared to in the Hot Tuna days, frequently playing with just Jack Casady on bass. The song is played in Open G Tuning and has a few very distinct sections. There are many measures that need to be played with improvised strumming, although almost all measures need small variations.

Enjoy this level 7 lesson!

Wooohoooo! Thank you, Neil!!
I am dropping everything and getting started on this right away!
I can't tell you how excited I am about this!
You played it beautifully, I might add. I'm sure Jorma would approve.

One of my very favorites! Any of Jorma's songs or songs Hot Tuna covered of other blues greats will be high on my list to learn!
