Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
A very minor-key sad blues ballad!! From the 2011 album You Can´t Teach An Old Dog New Tricks.
Although it opens on Dm, it closes on the chord of Dm/C, so it just hangs there unresolved, adding to the melancholy.
Notes =====
Verse ===== on the Dm / Dm C sections. Roll on and off the open top E string to F on the first fret. Like so....
