Well now, that was fun. I guess that's what a lot of intro s, riffs and lics are. Just plain fun.
Thanks Max.

Bill,
If you look at all the lessons, more than half are electric guitar songs or pop songs that are played by a bunch of instruments brought down to be played acoustically. If only pure acoustic finger picking or light strumming songs would be available, the site would be pretty dry. Most people are from 40 and up
meaning that most of the requested songs are from the 70s and 80s and are diversified in style.
I am not sure that sarcasm is the best way to get your point through.

Hey Bill,
Thanks for the vote of confidence but...
Aren't there enough???
Neil
Seriously, I am always working on new lessons but just getting back in the swing of things after the forced sabbatical. I hope you have tackled Tin Man.

Yes there are more than enough lessons, but it's always nice to see new ones, especially ones that can be complete compositions for a single guitarist/accompanist. I look forward to more of your excellent lessons. I hope your finger is completely healed, man that must have really hurt!.

not to kick a man while he's down Bill, but one of the best guitar players of our time, Eric Clapton, literally recorded one of the best albums of our time, when he made the "Unplugged" album. Layla is much better on an acoustic. Just my 2 cents worth.

Scott,
I agree, I think the acoustic Layla is better than the electric version. But the point is, that it is completely different. He didn't try to play the original electric version on an acoustic guitar. The acoustic version was so different that the audience didn't recognize it until he began to sing. IMO the electric version needs a whole band, while the acoustic version can be done solo.

Absolutely Marc. I guess I'm just looking for the "brought down to be played acoustically" part. Like Neil's lesson on Layla or practically all of the Beatles tunes he did.That way if one wants to actually perform the song, vocals and all, one would have all the tools to do so.
