sam's lesson

Today's lesson isn't spelled out note by note but it's not too hard. Bob Segers Come To Papa is today's lesson and if you watch close you can pick it up without a problem. This would be a great song to play in the bars and have a good time doing it...

For today's lesson I thought something easy for the beginner. The only problem here is having someone to sing the song and sound like Nazareth. Dan had a kick saa voice and as far as I know still does to this day. Saw him about ten years ago at the 17 club and he sure still had it then...

For today's lesson I thought some old Lynyrd Skynyrd would be nice. This is a song that is a great slow one to dance to and if your going to be playing in the bars it's one you should know. It's Not a hard song but it takes timing. So loosen up those fingers and Enjoy...

Way out in left field for our lesson today with a fun song called the Wildwood Weed. Now you can emagine what the wildwood weed is if you think about it. Or if you head down to Colorado and stand in line for a few hours. But this is a fun song so loosen up those fingers and Enjoy...

Today's lesson is the only Thin Lizzy song to get any airplay anymore. Witch is sad because Thin Lizzy had a lot of great songs. As a matter of fact the album this came off of had a ton of good stuff. But today's lesson is The Boys Are Back In Town from the Jailbreak album...

Today's Lesson is a little different as it is on a flat top guitar. And it is all about the blues. The blues is pretty much the basic of all rock and roll so this is some good stuff to learn. Beside it might help you out with the ladies at a party...

Today we will do yet another old time classic. Bad Company took the world by storm with the help of Led Zeppelin who helped them get a label. And Bad Company was formed with the drummer and singer from Free the bass player from King Crimson and the guitar player from Mott The Hoople...

Well we have been doing some leads so today I thought we would keep it up with some secrets. No matter how good of a player you are you can always learn something for just about any one. And that's one of the great things about guitar. Always remember no matter how good you are there is always someone better...

For today's lesson I thought we would do something a little different. Bad Company's Shooting Star is a song that's not too hard and is a great song. I think that this guys version is a good one most everyone will change a few things so the song will fit them a little better...

Today's lesson is the lead for Eric Claptons song Cocaine. This is one that almost all bands play a cover of on the bar scene and most every one play's their own lead to it. Well this guy has got it down pretty close and no one would be able to tell the difference in a bar...

For today's lesson I thought some different pentatonic scales would be nice. Most every one knows the main one but here are some different was to go about it. Even if you are a beginner or have been playing for years these are great things to refresh or for the beginner to learn...

Today's lesson is the same song as my favorite for today. Some classic Uriah Heep from their album Demons And Wizards from 1972. It's a great song thats not too tuff and is a lot of fun to play on a flat top. So loosen up those fingers and get ready for a clasic...
