Could you please do a guitar tutorial lesson on the song Melissa by the Allman Brothers. It is a beautiful and soulful song.

Oh Boy ! Everything a perfect song can be. Tears included … Thanks so much Jerry. Well Done Sir.

Nothing to do with guitar, but if you want some insight into this fabulous song, check out Sammy Davis Jr.’s performance. Sammy is a ‘hoofer’, tap dancer, from childhood, and completely relates to Mr. Bojangles.
