Thank you very much Sir.
Warren says
Thank you sir! Glad to have found this lesson. I love the beautiful chord progression and melody of Dream a little dream of me. I will transpose it to Sing and play it at one of my assisted living shows. Some of the songs that the residents requested are: Tennessee waltz, Frauline, Bluberry hill, You belong to me. Of course the old hymns as long as they are up tempo. Another one that goes over well is an old Japanese song called Sukiyaki. I’m not sure if I’m playing it correctly. Would you ever consider teaching that song? Anyway Thanks again. Take Care, Warren

Hi there, love the video lesson for Dream a Little Dream. I was wondering, do you have it on guitar tab as well?

I have looked at many instructional web sites and Jerry’s guitar bar is head and shoulders above the rest. He actually, in my opinion, gets the notes exactly correct. I was taking lessons for a couple of years, and paying $35/hr. Sometimes it would take me two or three lessons to “get” a song right. With Jerry you can practice to your heart’s content with the videos and tabs and learn a song correctly for under $10. A very good deal, for sure.

These free lessons are great. Some websites only offer 2 or 3 free videos before a purchase needs to be made. With all the free videos that you provide, a person can really get a very good idea of what to expect from the rest of your lessons. Your prices are very reasonable, and your instruction is awesome. Thank you!
