In the Still of the Night
Another song to be played in the "oldies progression". C-Am-F-G. Or G7, if you're feeling adventurous.
Franco-Prussian War of 1870
It was the war between the German States and the Second French Empire. The German victory led to the unification and the proclamation of the German Empire, also known as the Second Reich.
Tears on my Pillow
Another song to be played in the "oldies progression" (even tough nobody does, strangely enough). C-Am-F-G.
Siegfried Behrend: Die Gitarre
Siegfried Behrend was a successful german classical guitar player and composer. Here is the story of the guitar, in his presentation.
Warning: Do not try this at home.
House of the Rising Sun
Not another song in the "oldies progression". Quite easy to play, except for the F Chord. I hate the F Chord.
And here is how to play. It helps if you find the tabs, too.
Graig Kreindler
Earth Angel
Another song to be played in the "oldies progression". G-Em-C-D.
This guy's voice sounds like a cat in a barrel but... his guitar video is pretty good.
Come Go With Me
Another song to be played in the "oldies progression". G-Em-C-D. And repeat. Or C-Am-F-G. Two strums per chord.
The Metal Opera
Is a hard rock opera by Avantasia.
The orchestral arrangement is pretty straight forward and rather unsophisticated, but it has it's moments. The vocalist is quite remarkable. My favorite part is track six of the first album, "Farewell".
Little Brown Jug
Another easy song to play, they say. It is a lie! It is not simple. At all.
And this is how to play it on the guitar.
Duke of Earl
A beginner's song - or so they say - in the "oldies progression". You can sing it any way you can, but these guys do a great job.
G-Em-C-D. And repeat.
And the guitar cover.
Skill
It is not important what you learn. It is important only what you learn how to do. Like learning to play that guitar you've had laying around, for example.
