Yes, another one about guitar playing, sorry. So, since mastering my nemesis song, Faust Arp, I moved on to an equally mean finger-picking song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers called Road Trippin’. It is one of their finest songs, in my humble opinion. Anyway, it took literally weeks to get there, including some days where I did precious little else all day long, but I have now cracked that one too and feel I have progressed a lot as a result.
With that out of the way, I made a start today on the next song on my list – Here Comes the Sun, by the Beatles. It’s an amazingly gorgeous song that I have long wanted to be able to play but have always been intimidated by. It is not a finger-picking song, but it is definitely a challenging piece, so it is a good project to keep me busy. Despite being fairly tricky, there are really only a few parts to it that just get repeated over and over, so I am hoping it wont take me too long to get this one sussed either…
