Nylon


Okay, I don't expect that I'm a pro-musician already but damn it's hard to bring up the patience for this.

I copped myself a Gomez, a classic guitar with nylon strings but since I play my little bird(stratocaster), this Gomez feels like a real b*tch. Damn..
But hey, it's all about, patient, love for music and.. nothing less than music so I should stop complaining and start playing! But hey, the two picture perfect next to eachother right?

I'm busy with teaching myself an old classic now.
It's called: Albatross by Fleetwood Mac.
Istant classic imo.
"Albatross" is a guitar-based instrumental by Fleetwood Mac, released as a single in 1969. The piece was composed by Peter Green.

The composition suggests a relaxing sea setting, with cymbals imitating the sound of waves and a dreamy solo from Green's guitar. It contains only two chords, Emaj7 and F#m, and could be seen as an early ambient work.

They don't make this kind of music anymore.. it's peacefull.
This 'piece' is so slow that you should play it without any misplaced chords or something.. so here I am, as a beginner trying to play this.

Well, it's going to be alright.
