Guitar Lesson: Talking about a revolution - Tracy Chapman - How to play intro&Verse&chorus

Welcome to another guitar lesson to learn how to play Talking about a revolution by Tracy Chapman with this online instructional youtube video. The whole song is covered in this lesson. If you use the annotations it is possible to skip certain parts which is handy for those who learn fast.

Oh,... and eeeh... If you think that your neighbours just bought a new cat... It's actually my cat that you hear in the background of the recording, didn't realize it until i actually finished editing... What can I say, he likes the guitar ;-)

Enjoy this all-time guitar classic!

@Bigmadchops subcity i don't know, but there is tons of websites and such online that post lessons/tutorials. It is hard to do things flawless and even though i would like to think mine are, they probably aren't. especially if you want to get positions/fingerings exactly right. But i think most of my tutorials are a good place to start, i tend to triple check before i put things online... :)

Man i like teaching ability.Great lesson! And by they way what program you used to get these tabs on display? Once again thanx!

[YourGuitarWorkshop]

@MARCKEL7 thanks! these days i use guitarpro 6 to make the sheetmusic and make little screenshots of the chords or tabs which i then import into final cut pro. unfortunately you can't export the image out of gp6 so that every image would be exactly the same size but it works fine like this..

Hi Andre, great lesson thanks a lot for the lesson. Just a small comment after your lesson i tried to play along with a live performance of T.Chapman. I have the impression that the strumming pattern you proposed is sligthly off what T.C is playing. Two down strums on the G is followed by a down strum on the Cadd9 (which also makes it easier not to hit the high E as you are proposing.....(perhaps i am wrong and on the record is like you are saying ....)

[YourGuitarWorkshop]

@Irakleitos2 hey, it could be that you are right, haven't heard the original in a while. wouldn't surprise me if she plays it slightly different each performance but good that you can hear what is different in that performance you talk about, after all, in music it's all about listening so keep it up! thanks for the feedback! André

@lyberube lol,... mine also is there when i'm studying, funny enough i can see that when I play loud he is annoyed by it but I guess the company more than makes up for it...

Thank you , very good teacher. I have a cat too, it has 15 years old, and it likes guitar. When I play, it is always near to me.
