>>Newest Target Lesson - Jim Croce - Have to say I love you in a song 1 Year, 11 Months ago
So here is our latest Target song I’ll Have To Say I Love You In A Song by Jim Croce, and is a level 7....Now that I have had some Croce Exposure, I am very pleased to bring you this..and it is going to test some of you to play it at the higher level, but also will accomodate some closer to the intermediate range..
Hope you enjoy it, and hope you have been enjoying the abundance of new stuff from us..
This lesson goes deeply into this great Jim Croce song. It features three different looks at the song- Jim’s accompaniment guitar part, a second guitar part capoed at the 7^th fret in the style of Maury Muehleisen’s harmony part, and Neil’s solo fingerstyle arrangement which can be used as an instrumental break. This really makes it a song of multiple difficulty levels, probably 6, 4, and 7 respectively.

So happy, Jim Croce was one of my favorite artists. This is one of his best songs, Operator and a few others aren't bad either. Please do more of Jim, love his guitar playing style

Another great lesson as usual, BUT did you check out Neil's singing in the "Play Through"? He was fantastic! I was really impressed. I watched that segment four times. Thanks for the lesson from a long time Croce fan and a particular fan of the work of Maury Muehleisen.

What a wonderful lesson this is! Beautiful song beautifully played in a masterful lesson. There is a little give-away moment there which shows Neil's mind-set in the preview where he says, "I can't play it right now without the capo... yes, I can!... but I'm not going to...." and then he nails it without capo. Wonderful! It's not just the lessons, it's Neil's inspiring self that makes everything so excellent!
I guess Mr. Segovia doesn't give a damn!
- Les Paul answering an audience question (while playing with Segovia) about why he tuned his guitar after every song and Segovia didn't.

Oh, well that's just great......NOW, what am I going to do?
I can't take it anymore!! These songs just keep coming at me...... Just kidding, not really.
But I do have the "Kid in the candy store" syndrome.
I was just going to start on "Time in a bottle" and now this comes up.
Decisions, decisions.

I know I'm preaching to the choir when I say this, but this Target Program is just so amazing. Yet another great song to learn. Thanks for this. I have the week off, so now I know what I'll be working on.

This song really lets Neil shine. He knows how great some of Croce's songs were and this is one of them. You can tell he wants it played right or at least with some real feeling as Croce does. I really appreciate how Neil holds out until he feels he has done justice to some of these really great, almost inspirational songs. Gary

Wow, this is going to be challenging. I am crushed to find out after all this time of having barre chords down fairly well, that I have a dead string! Nooooooo! I hadn't noticed it much until I tried to do some finger picking while playing a barre minor 7 chord, such as a Cm7 or Bm7. I can't get the 3rd string(G) to ring out. All the other strings are great, but I am struggling with a soft spot on my left index (barre) finger right at the 3rd string. Dang! I'm trying really hard to start to roll my index finger back, more on it's side to get it to ring. This is going to take some time.
