New Video Lessons!

Years ago I posted a couple video lessons on my YouTube channel for "Meeting of the Spirits," by John McLaughlin, and haven't revisited them since. Then one day, on a whim I took a look at them and noticed that I actually had a decent amount of views. I mean, we're talking like an average of 1,000 views a year for almost 10 years, but hey, I'll take them.

One thing I realized, however, was that I never actually got around to covering all the material in "Meeting of the Spirits," so I decided that with "everything going on these days" (TM) I might as well record an updated video to celebrate? the uh...new decade? Yes, something like that. Anyway, the goal of this new series of lessons is to maximize the amount of instruction while at the same time, minimizing the amount of talking. Thus "(Almost) No Talking Lessons" was born.

Now I can't promise that I'll keep my yap shut at all times, because I do need to explain stuff from time to time, but at least I won't be all food blog-y and be all like, "This first chord reminds me of that one late August day during that parched summer of 1992..."

So after recording the updated "Meeting of the Spirits" lesson, I decided that since I was having so much fun, I'd throw in a b-b-b-bonus lesson: "Hope," also by John McLaughlin. Here they are for your learning pleasure:
