Hi Brian and all AM mates, very cool lesson Brian, embelishments of chords make the progression sounds much better adding melodies to the harmony, I really like it!
Thank you very much!
Hi Brian, Thank you for being the most comprehensive instructor I have ever experienced. I just came back to the guitar world after a long lull of no playing. I found this site and I really have an understanding and appreciation to your style and genre interests. You are helping me revive my guitar playing and are very understandable with your instruction and playability. Hats off to you sir, your a godsend to me and others I am sure. Great lessons!

Brian, Easy and sounds good on Cowboy chords. Makes chords sound so much fuller.Great little lesson. I likes it! As Elvis say’s Thank You, Thank you
great content I can’t wait to see next week your blowing my mind!!
Wow, I just saw this early this Thursday morning. This is so cool Brian. Such simplicity with a beautiful sounding melody. This lit up numerous light bulbs for me on how I can use this in so many different ways, Very cool.
Thank you

I don’t know how you know so many cool things like this. It sounds like you do a LOT of noodle making. So i am guessing that you accidentally run into cool new ideas. But this lesson material doesn’t seem like most music teachers have in their lesson bag. It seems like a new way to thing of the same idea.
Im so glad that you have this website and can teach.
They say “Those who CAN’t -teach “
But “They “ are wrong. You certainly know what you are doing and do a fantastic job teaching
So much good stuff at AM. Premium member for 2 years; finally found a place to LEARN. Thx Brian!
The timing on this lesson couldn’t be better – just (re)discovered some old western standards and, specifically, started learning Tex Owens ‘Cattle Call’ and was looking to find a little different voice for the guitar. Now if I can just learn to yodel…. Didn’t see that topic covered in the lesson collection here 🙂 Thank you, Brian.
perfecto es lo que necesito aprender en este momento estaba en algo similar
A little friend of the devil
I have learned so much in the month that I have subscribed to your website. I wish that I had found your site 10 years ago.
great lesson Brian! Love this kind of stuff on top of all of the others…No one does it like you!
love it Brian sounds great cheers
this is the kind of stuff that no one else ever comes close to, and what really makes a better player out of us students, thanks
Joined recently, kp up good work…this lesson very useful
A friend of mine could do that run in E we did for Norwegian Wood this has helped me as I only know the lead line.
This is SO much more my speed than some of the other more comprehensive lessons. Thank you for restarting these mid-week offerings at this level.
I like your lessons I really do, the tabs are great. I wish you would take a little more time and go over where you are placing your fingers. As you are talking, then you start playing Its not always clear where your fingers are and you keep playing then I get lost. But I do like your website,
