>>New Target and Pay Per Lesson - Fire - Bruce Springsteen

[dennisg]

Hi everyone!

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

Fire is a song written by Bruce Springsteen in 1977, who had envisioned it as a song which could be recorded by his idol Elvis Presley. It initially became a huge hit for the Pointer Sisters who released it as a single in 1978.

The lesson is based on an acoustic live performance and shows how Bruce’s guitar player plays the main and signature bass line.

It covers how to play it in the key of G, as Bruce does, and also the key of C. The latter might fit better for female vocalists who would like to cover the Pointer Sisters version.

Enjoy this level 3 song!

Cool classic guitar song Ness. I enjoyed your play through and your cheeky smiles.


Nicely detailed lesson as always.

What a cool way to play the song; bass and guitar rolled into one.

Nice!

Thx for another great lesson Ness.

I love the emphasis on the way the bass strings carry this song, and also incorporating the taps into the rhythm... Very cool.
