www.TotallyGuitars.com Learn to play Mrs. Robinson Guitar lesson – Paul Simonsample guitar lesson. Full lesson found at http Visit the site for free guitar lessons, TARGET program, forum, community, and contests. Mrs. Robinson was originally written for the movie ‘The Graduate’, starring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft. Paul Simon later wrote more lyrics and polished the few that he had before they included it on their 4th album, Bookends. This lesson starts with a Campfire Version, then adds the main riff ,a fill and some passing bass notes, before finishing up with a flashy instrumental flatpicking arrangement of the intro. The Campfire Version is a level 4, the addition of the riff and such pushes it to a 5 or 6, and the instrumental intro bumps it up into the level 8 range. www.TotallyGuitars.com – Complete Free Lessons – Community – Chat Room – Forum – Your Own Blog – Recommend A Lesson -Membership is free http join now!

www.TotallyGuitars.com Learn to play The Boxer Guitar lesson – Paul Simonsample guitar lesson. Full lesson found at http Visit the site for free guitar lessons, TARGET program, forum, community, and contests. The last Simon & Garfunkel album, Bridge Over Troubled Water, included The Boxer, a semi-autobiographical Paul Simon song that is one of our most requested. Another classic Simon lick starts this otherwise somewhat generic fingerpicking song. The lesson includes a fingerstyle arrangement of the solo as well. www.TotallyGuitars.com – Complete Free Lessons – Community – Chat Room – Forum – Your Own Blog – Recommend A Lesson -Membership is free http join now!

The response from Andrew Wasson , of Creative Guitar Studio, to: “Can you do a video lesson that explains how to read music notation (not tab) on the guitar? There are so many of the exact same notes on the neck that I cant understand how the process of where the notes should be played specifically actually works when a guitarist reads music notation. Thanks, Vincent, NY. Andrew Wasson of Creative Guitar Studio covers the process of how guitarists can learn how to organize the music notes from a song onto the guitar fretboard in a logical manner using a system.
