Hey, Neil,

Have always loved the Blind Faith tune, "Can't Find My Way Home."

Won't pronounce "Can't" like in the original song, as it might be scandalous in the U.S. .

Anyway, a great song. Would love to see the way that you might play it.


Best,

Kimball Morgan

Hey Kimball, welcome to the program!! We're glad to have you with us!! If you wouldn't mind please go over to the Please Introduce Yourself thread and tell us a little about yourself! Where you live, what your musical interests are and where you are on you journey to learn this incredible instrument- the guitar!

Almost without fail, the first thing every new TARGET member does is request their favorite song from Neil. And most of the songs requested are good ones but there are two critieria for having Neil do a song study for your song.

First, Neil must like the song. Don't request Tom Petty for example. I'll leave it at that! lol!

Second, the songs Neil selects must have real teaching value. If we can't learn something new from the song, usually a technique or progression, there is no chance the song will be chosen.

I don't want to discourage you further but this is month 5 of the TARGET program and there have been literally hundreds of requests for songs. Neil does about 3-5 full song studies every month so the odds aren't very good.

There is a thread under TARGET called Request a Lesson. This is the place to post your song request. On top of full song studies Neil does TARGET Shorts and Campfire Tunes. If he likes your song you may have a better chance there!

Good luck and Happy Playin'! :cheer:

Anything with Clapton in it would be nice, and a first for this site. Note Neil doesn't mention Eric much... if ever..
