Thanks for adding “Junk” to the lessons, Jerry.
This song has intrigued me for years because of its melodic beauty and SEEMINGLY easy strumming and picking style (wuth the emphasis on “seemingly”).
What a perfect song for solo guitar! It will be as dominant in my repertoire as “Wish You Were Here.”
Jerry says
I love it too.
It’s a beautiful melody and the guitar part is gorgeous.
It’s not quite as easy as it sounds, but shouldn’t present any real problems.
