Default Tutorial - The Wind & The Wheat - Phil Keaggy

One of my favorite Keaggy tunes. Its a bit difficult due to some of the big stretches and difficult chords he uses, but nothing too hard. Let me know if this has helped you out!

I saw Keaggy on the 15th last month in Boardman, OH over by where he grew up. He was the best guitarist I've ever seen. It's cool that this song was written in standard tuning (or at least it can be played just as easily in standard tuning, I should say).

Thanks for posting!

That's a beautiful piece, and played beautifully, too. I like that you have a good clear view of your fingers on the fingerboard, as well as the tablature showing for each passage. Very effective tutorial, I think.

I'm not familiar with Phil Keaggy's music, though I know of him as a fine guitar player. This makes me want to hear more of his music. Thanks for posting it.
