Hi Dr. F,

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I had fun putting together lessons for this anniversary week and figured to do some blockbusters, and to keep folks guessing. Two more on the way after today. Speculations anyone???

I'll guess:

1) Like Willem, I wouldn't be surprised for a popular JT addition (with hopefully more to come)!
2) Just went through the Piano Man lesson (and Your Song is slowly coming together). Diggin' the piano-esque chord inversions, so maybe you have more up your sleeve. Rocket Man? New York State of Mind?

Thanks for all of the new content!

From the weekly wrap-up video, hints included "You've Got a Friend" (James Taylor), "John Barleycorn" (Traffic), "Truckin'" (Grateful Dead) and a quickie chord sequence that sounded like "Venus" (Shocking Blue). FWIW, I looked at recent lessons before joining a couple of months ago and I'd say that 2012 has been stellar. Mega-kudos for the Guess Who lessons! :)

Jim

Edit: "Truckin'" is already a lesson so maybe I'm missing on this...

Jim,
I think you have a good guess on the Truckin' thing, you are right there already is a lesson on truckin' but not a detailed lesson on the chord solo version like Neil put up for Wish You Were Here. So I'd go with that, and I would also guess that Neil might put up a lesson of a classic fingerpicking song like the traditional "Deep River Blues" or "Blue Railroad Train" by the Delmore Brothers or "I Am the Light of this World" by Rev. Gary Davis.

Dr.Fuji, did you finish all the 500 songs already?! :laugh:
I know you didn't, of course, we are thoroughly spoilt for choice on this site but it is nice to get a new song every now and then that really gets the juices flowing!

Blockbusters, eh? My guess: "(The) Clap."

But "I Am the Light of this World" would be pretty great, too (as would any number of other things).

Great! I'd been looking forward to that one. But, just curious: how did you know? I see no announcement for it anywhere.
