Hey folks, just wanted to discuss requests a little bit. I love to know what you would like to see next but I'm realizing that if I've never heard of your request and I do a lesson on it, those often die on the vine, as the saying goes. So please understand that if you request something really obscure, its chances aren't good just because this is a business and I have to see financial progress. I've been in the rock and roll business for 39 years and while I definitely don't know of all the great songs out there, if I've never heard of it, it probably won't do well here on this channel. Now if you could make a donation to the channel, that goes a long way. Just sayin'. :)

That being said, what do you all wanna learn next?!?

Thx, D

I take you now to a garage in Canoga Park.....
