In this video I am playing 30 songs that are great fun to play on an acoustic guitar. Real classics.
In my 12 years of teaching I know what kind of songs are well suited for learning purposes or just overall fun to play.
Im not claiming these are the 30 best songs ever written. To be honest, some songs arent my favorite by miles. But as a teacher and (hopefully) an inspiration, I want to have a wide palette of songs for you to enjoy! And for all songs goes; they are awesome to play on an acoustic guitar!
This is my tribute to some of the great rock guitar solos from 1980 to 1984.
Erratum:
Please read: Dave Murray and Adrian Smith for the solos in the
Trooper.
Kirk Hammett and not Hammet…
I played all guitars, bass, keyboards and I programmed the drums with a Native Instrument plugin.
All guitars were recorded with the Kemper profiler.
Bass was recorded with a Neural DSP plugin
I do not own the rights for any of the compositions.
