Hello everyone, I am stepping down from running this series of Challenges but I have excellent news for you ....... @Wim VD1 has kindly agreed to take over. I would like to thank Wim very much for agreeing to do this, I did not want to just drop this as I believe that recording your work and sharing it is important for the development of musicians and now it is even more so with the global Covid problem. I will bow out and leave Wim to pick this months winner etc. A big thank you to all who have posted recordings in the past and I hope you will continue to do so and that others will join in too. Thank you also to those of you who have taken the time to post words of encouragement for us or have hit the like button. Without you people would most likely stop posting their recordings and these Challenges would disappear. You have not heard the last from me yet, I will still hang around this forum and if you are really unlucky I may post a song or two. 🤓

I can understand Mandy When Steve moved to a 2 night a week Live Lessons last spring I couldn't keep up the commitment of moderating the chat with my work workload and own learning. @Wim VD1 glad you're continuing the challenge,

@Nutty 1On behalf of the Guitar Gathering "Family", I wish to THANK YOU, MANDY, for your contribution to our site. I'm sure many folks looked forward to hearing the "Recording Challenge" you administered, and are very appreciative too. God Bless; Neil Welcome to our friend @Wim VD1 to the post! I'm sure you'd do an excellent job!

@NeilES335 that was lovely and mellow and flowing and brilliantly done. I loved it! 😎👏👏👏

I don't know about easy, but this lesson ties the Circle of 5th's to the fretboard. Easiest Way to Become a MASTER of the Fret Board

@K9kaos Yeah there is a lot of good information in the video. It is interesting how we keep stumbling on lessons that tie in with the concepts Steve taught us.

That was a pretty cool video! Definitely a different perspective than I'd considered before! When he got to the part about using the triads, I thought 'hey! I know those!!' Lol! Steve's Triads lessons definitely are pretty entrenched in my brain now! Thanks for posting this!

For my theme of ' Hope, Peace, & Love ' this month ... "What the World Needs Now Is Love" is a 1965 popular song with lyrics by Hal David and music composed by Burt Bacharach. First recorded and made popular by Jackie DeShannon, it was released on April 15, 1965, on the Imperial label after a release on sister label Liberty records the previous month was canceled. It peaked at number seven on the US Hot 100 in July of that year.[1] In Canada, the song reached number one. (Wikipedia) My cover of this very popular song, that I think is just as appropriate today as it was in 1965. I hope you enjoy it! All the Best! Neil ps the back story for the song makes interesting reading; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_the_World_Needs_Now_Is_Love

I don't need someone to teach me how mute strings. I do it unintentionally all the time🤣😪
