This week had an interesting mix of lessons for our Target members, including a song that really should be done on a 12-string,
like most Byrds tunes, an alternate way to play the pyrotechnic walking bass section of Whodunit, a little more Jason Mraz, and
finally, after way too many delays, Jim Croce’s I Got A Name. That lesson covered all the guitar parts but is something you really
need a partner to accompany to get the real feel.

We also leaked out a little of the Al Stewart video that we have from last year’s IGC and the rest will be along soon, although just
available to folks registered for the camp, along with last year’s group of course.

Other than that, today’s News had much of the usual random tangent approach that comes from years of not planning what I will say
or play, or attempt. I think there were a few dead end attempts at tunes in there somewhere.

Till next week…

Hmmmm....that last chord sounds like an E to me, along with that C#, E6?

Thanks for another great week.

I'm just loving the WhoDunIt lesson.
The additional bass runs are great too.
I'm not giving up on the original bass run section it's an on going painful
challenge. It'll probably take me the rest of my life though !
This tune is just so uplifting it's worth it.

The Al Stewart, video was fantastic, thanks for sharing that.
I can understand if you want to keep access strictly to IGC Attendees, but,
might you consider these IGC Instructor videos as a Totally Guitars Package?

Classical guitar has a tonal quality the steel string doesn't.
Wether the tonal quality comes through at lesson reproduction quality is another thing.
That said, it would still be interesting to hear you playing the Classical Lessons with a classical guitar as
the steel string sometimes looks clumsy and doesn't always do classical tunes justice.

What song are you refering to when you say it should only be played using a 12 string?

Edit

Watching the news again, I don't hear the comment, but I'm sure you said that in a video recently.
Can't find it as a forum comment either!

I must have misheard.

:S

What does Scheherazade chord mean ?

I've been listening to the chord at the end of the news but am not sure what I hear.

The chord tones see are:

E, G#, C# E and B (12th fret Harmonic does that make a difference to the chord name)

I should do more of the ear training lessons.

Nice chord sound though.



Edit

Sorry, it's a G#, I was looking at the wrong fret .
So it's 1,3,5. 6 = E6 unless the harmonic B makes a difference ?
