Two very good guitar lessons today. The lessons overlapped a bit and today again I made (made? I can only suggest, innit) them play a couple of duets. Which they loved and they made arrangements to meet outside of lessons to play. I count that as a win.

At one of my schools, with pupil preparing a grade 6 electric guitar (Trinity Rock & Pop). His programme so far is: 'Samba Pa'Ti' by Santana, 'With A Little Help From My Friends' in the Joe Cocker version, Hendrix's 'The Wind Cries Mary' -very sort of classic rock. He's playing all these better than I can, already, so I think we're on a good path here.

MICK TAYLOR
ACCORDING TO GUITAR PILGRIM

Can You Play This Riff? Ep. 33 Mick Taylor [The Rolling Stones]
Guitar Pilgrim [Thom Helwig]

"Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out"-era Mick Taylor with a little Keith Richards thrown in. We also get a better idea of the number of faces Guitar Pilgrim can make. Pilgrim is very popular. He posted this video just two hours ago and he already has 117 thumbs up.

JIMI HENDRIX’ AMAZING RHYTHM GUITAR

New ... posted just one hour ago

Oftentimes, Guitar Pilgrim calls Jimi Hendrix his favorite. I'd like to put in a pitch for the line

Ike Everly to Merle Travis to Chet Atkins to Lenny Breau to Tommy Emmanuel

Danny Gatton, heavily inspired by Lenny Breau, figures in there somewhere.

For more of these videos, follow Mastodon's GuitarPilgrim hashtag. The Pilgrim is amazing!

GUITAR PILGRIM
IRRESISTIBLE RIFF
Mastodon Post

This RIFF is so enjoyable, it's addictive..

56 Minutes Ago - I Call That New

I like this Paoletti guitar better than the Taylor guitar in the latest prior videos.

When I heard Elvis Presley live, it was the very great James Burton who played this guitar riff. It seems to me it was probably Burton on the record.

One of the most BEAUTIFUL songs for GUITAR
Guitar Pilgrim [Thom Helwig]

Evidently I am pre-level one. An unfretted strum would have never occurred to me. It would, though, help with my problem of stiff fingers. So, in just the latest few videos, I have learned that I am strumming wrong and I am playing an A-chord wrong. What's next?

"I will see you next time."
