Hello Kirk,
I'm still working on this piece and I must say you do have a lot of style woven into this lesson. I just spent a half hour disecting (spelling?) the latter half of the lesson. I was reminding of something you recently posted about getting the touch to emphasize the notes you want to dominate the song and let the remaining notes fill in and give some body to the piece. This learning section was a little frustrating but I feel pretty good about my progress tonight. Heck this almost sounds like music!
You know it took me literally two months to be able to play from start to finish (I sound like the MIMI file ) BUT!! I just started the Little wing lesson. I played it (poorly) start to finish the first night reading the tabs! (Hey this Kirk guy most know what he's doing )
I didn't think I was making very much progress but that sure did pump up the ego.
I hope to make another post soon to show my progress compared to my first attempt with Vincent. I'm coming up on six months with my guitar and I have more enthusiasm than ever.
Thanks again for a great site. You must be given the credit for enabling us beginners to find some success which keeps me chuggin along and happy to practice.
Best regards,
Mike
