  1. Hi Jerry,

    Great tuition, just a quick question re Sound of Silence, should or could I download the full lesson and is it more extensive? e.g. I mean does it break it down barr by barr with chords? I am not great on tabs. I would love to play this fully. I am an intermediate player at present, Regards, Tony from Galway Ireland, P.S. if you ever get over this way please make contact

  10. What a great choice of material you have chosen this song and I go back a long way and has revived some good memories of my younger days as a hippie and struggling to be a fine guitar player someday. Thanks for bringing back those forgotten memories and a great song. Maybe you could post the boxer one day.. thanks. And God bless you and your special talent…

  16. I don’t have a capo at the moment so I’ve had to resort to barring the entire song. Hopefully the one I ordered will arrive soon.

  17. As a self taught guitarist I have meny bad habits, lessons like this help me break those.
    Your voice is soothing to hear as well.
    Thank you very much for this lesson.
    God bless you.
