LESSON DETAILS

"You've Got A Friend" - Vol. 1

Using a lesson request from a student, I created an accompaniment lesson on a gospel version of You've Got A Friend. In this 2-part lesson I will show you the rich gospel chords and how to 'fill the space' using a more gospel/jazz style. In addition, you will learn some nice transition chords. These are chords that move use smoothly between the larger I-IV-V chords. While not an easy lesson, there is something here for all levels. In part 2 we will cover 'gospel grooving' where we take a simple progression and really groove on it.
