I’ve been working my way through Rialto by Michael Watts. For me, a true challenge in DADGAD.

some girls
salt of the earth
tangled up in blue
every grain of sand
simple twist of fate
and a lot off the final cut pink floyd record

Sorry,, it's a bit hacky, and it's all electric, new to the acoustic thing.

I usually work on bluegrass and Celtic fiddle tunes and classic acoustic rock from the 60's-70's era. However, yesterday I decided to switch directions and have started:
Jesu, Joy of a Man's Desiring - Bach
Bourree from Lute Suite #1 - Bach
Ode to Joy from Symphony #9 - Beethoven
Fur Elise - Beethoven

With the sheet music I can get through what I consider the "A" portion. The rest of the body of the songs are still a work in progress.

I saw this on another thread yesterday and had to learn it. Don't even know if it's an actual song. If anyone knows, please share.

Im still working out Michael McDonalds “It Keeps You Running”, but finding a lesson on guitar has only turned up two. One is a minimal breakdown of the keys on guitar and the other is a playthrough with no explanations

I'm not (yet) a fingerpicker, so I can't play it like DaddyStovepipe, but I really dig the Johnny Mercer / Hoagy Charmichael song "Lazy Bones." I first heard Leon Redbone do it, and it's as if the song was made for him. So, I'm trying

I Finally figured it out the right way with all the embellishments..
Well not all of them .. most of them,, getting the synth part I said super tricky.

Super happy with the tone of the garrison on this one

I’m working on The Great Pacific Northwest by American primitive hero Glenn Jones. It’s tuned to CGCEBE then capoed with a partial capo at the fourth fret, so the notes are rarely where you expect them to be.

Don't ask me why but last night I was playing the acoustic and this song from 1975 appeared under my fingers.



I decided to learn the acoustic parts and Phil Keaggy's Les Paul leads on the spot. Of course, I had to dig out an MXR Script Logo Phase 90 phase shifter on the Helix, didn't I?
