CSN - Daylight Again
Posted: Fri Sep 01, 2023 2:55 pm
Hey Folks,
I could have sworn I did this lesson years ago and was surprised recently to find out that I must have fabricated the memory. Thanks to a student wanting to work on this, Daylight Again is now in the TG Library.
Daylight Again is a Stephen Stills tune from the 1982 album of the same name. It features Stills noodling around with melody notes in the key of D Minor and lightly strumming a droning D power chord, meaning just roots and fifths, no third. The strumming is a form of frailing, using the fingers to strum as well as pick out melody notes.
Stills plays this with a lot of variations and improvising in live performances, but this lesson goes into great detail about the way it was done in the studio. There is a short look at some of the additions found in live versions.
