Stormy Monday

They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad

Yes the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy, my heart's in misery
Crazy about my baby, yes, send her back to me

David Hamburger Sample Lesson

Very nice sample lesson from David Hamburger on acousticguitareworkshop.com, using Freddie Green chord voicings on slow E chord progression.

Saw Hamburger at guitar show in Boston couple of years ago, and he left a lasting impression. His "New School" finger style blues is sort of a jazzed blues style, from what I have seen. Regardless of what you call it, very nice stuff, and he has a pleasant, clear teaching style that is well produced.

Click on the "New School" tab at bottom of the video screen.
