"Last Kiss" Easy Guitar Lesson - Pearl Jam

Hi fam,
We’ve got the next easy song lesson ready to go for you. This time we are taking a look at the multi-layered classic “Last Kiss”.
I say multi-layered because this tune was first released by Wayne Cochran in 1961, later made famous by J. Frank Wilson in 1964and the Cavaliers in 1964 and then it was made even more famous again by Pearl Jam some 30 years later.
All you need to play through this song is four open chords and one strumming pattern. Of course the chord chart and jam track are available for you on the Guitar Fam site.
Enjoy and let us know what other easy songs you’d like to see videos for.

A few weeks ago I had a private video lesson with a student, and they wanted to learn the Neil Young song "Old Man". I figured it was a great opportunity to do a video for this tune. It's a great tune to learn if you want to learn how to put some motion to your basic chords. This lesson is complete with jam track and TAB. You can find both here.

Hi Guitar Fam,
One of the most requested songs/artists from my private lesson students is "Sundown" by Gordon Lightfoot. In fact, I've had so many requests to learn it lately that I decided to just make a video for it.
This is the easy version of the song, but I plan on doing a more detailed version for it too. All you need to play this song is a handful of chords and one easy strumming pattern.
We have the chord chart and jam track for you here on the Guitar Fam site. You can also learn lots of other easy songs here too.
When the full version of this song comes out, you will be able to find it here .

How to Play Windy and Warm - Guitar Lesson
Book your first complimentary 1-on-1 guitar lesson with Nate today!
https://www.guitarfam.com/private-guitar-lessons

Hey Guitar Fam. I'm excited to bring you this lesson on the classic fingerstyle guitar song "Windy & Warm" written by John D. Loudermilk. This version is based on Doc Watson's performances with a couple of my own little twists.
When I was younger, I thought I would never be able to play this song because it sounded so difficult. Well, it took me a long time to get it down, but I think it's a great example of how setting a goal and working toward it can yield some nice results. There are lots more fingerstyle songs like this coming to the site soon, so keep an eye out for those.
The full TAB/notation is here for you. Take it one tiny piece at a time and practice it SLOWLY! These two tips will help you get it down faster. This is a tough one, so be patient with yourself. Let us know if you have any questions, need any help, or want to schedule a private lesson with me. support@guitarfam.com Good luck! You can do it.
