Turn turn turn

[Triple-o]

 

What can I to practice today that might help me?  I was putting some bird seed out and I thought wasn’t there a band called “The Birds”. I was close, but no cigar. Since Birds is slang for girls and Roger McGuinn didn’t want his band to be called “The Girls” he changed the spelling  to  “The Byrds”. Thanksgiving dinner also is involved and that part you could probably guess. 

Were they at the time “America’s Beatles”? Some thought they were.Jim later also changed his name to Roger, why you ask, afraid you’ll  need talk to his guru.

I think a 12 string Rickenbacker also has a story to tell if your interested.

 I stumbled across a Pete Seeger song they did. Turn Turn Turn. A song Pete Seeger apparently took straight from the scriptures. 
I looked at a few lessons on YouTube sites and it looks like it might be worth the time to play around with it for awhile. Some hybrid picking, easy strumming patterns and arpeggios come into play along with a few chords  I haven’t played before and a catchy intro riff. So, I guess I’ll give give it a try.
