August 7, 2021

There were a lot of interesting suggestions and threads on the Forum this week. I particularly liked the recent lesson and artist suggestions, but I gravitated toward I Heard It Through The Grapevine, which got me started with an improv based on it. The main other playing this week was another improv at the end that included some Glen Campbell, Jesse Colin Young, and even Jim Gordon (who? figure it out…).

In between there were some thoughts on IGC 2021 and our KOA Pathways Program, as well as a rundown of new releases and some upcoming teasers.

The main new stuff this week was a lesson on Wait by The Beatles and a new Simon & Garfunkel pack with songs mostly from their 1968 album Bookends. And I still have a working list of things under construction, which is now a bit longer thanks to some great suggestions (Harry Chapin, Lyle Lovett, Jim Croce…). Some will definitely see the light of day soon.
