Romeo & Juliet - Mark Knopfler
Landslide - Fleetwood Mac

IDK, maybe they're a little beyond my abilities at the moment but I like learning them because there's both finger style and strumming there.

Interested in how you are playing The Weight. If fingerstyle, what pattern?

Hallelujah (Jeff Buckley's version) fingerstyle-- I can do it clean at 180bpm, sloppy at 190bpm, and barely recognizable at 200bpm (my goal). Getting there though! This one has really taught/reinforced to me the value of a metronome app!

Also Layla, unplugged version--still having issues with some of the quicker changes from open to barre configurations.

I've been trying to mirror this tute note per note. I like the way it's played. The toughest part has been the intro and getting that hammer on picked smoothly. It's getting better.

I've circled back around to my Ozark Mountain Daredevils from the early days thru "The Car Over the Lake" album .. it's been a while
