Playing by Ear.
I have been learning guitar for just over a year now and I am finally about to play most of the stuff I listen to although sometimes my technical skill lags behind my ear and of course I am working on that. However, I derive most pleasure out of listening to singers and copy their vocal melody and play it as it is usually sounds very melodic to me. Just today I played the entire song "Ain't no Sunshine" by Bill Withers on my guitar and I wish to know if I am on the right track to learn the instrument by doing this? Also, My lead guitar repertoire was pretty much non existent and I feel doing this gives me more licks to learn and get those registered in my mind to pull them out whenever I seek to play something melodious.
