Hi everyone,
Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live, Affair On 8th Avenue by Gordon Lightfoot.
From Gordon Lightfoot’s 1968 album Back Here On Earth, Affair On 8th Avenue is a great example of what
you can do with a simple arpeggio accompaniment over some very basic chords, especially when you throw
in a haunting melody and compelling lyrics.
The progression is pretty straightforward, with really just one section, a verse, but the intro really sets the
stage for this song. It was originally done with two guitars but this lesson looks at a couple ways of playing
a solo version of the intro.
There are also quite a few varied arpeggio patterns that can be used and the student is encouraged to play
it a little differently every time.
Enjoy this level 4 lesson!
