Danielj Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I'm talking about riffs galore, lots of nice little sounds, not extremely hard. I don't really like Metallica, but a friend told me Seek And Destroy is a fun song to play, so i tried it and love playing it. Thanks, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcM Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I dont play guitar, but I always thought that RHCP guitar riffs would be fun to play. The cd that I think of most for this would be Blood Sugar Sex Magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I´m helping my husband now with Creedence Clearwater Revival... "Looking out my back door" and "Lodi"...it´s very simple but it does rock! I always make punk covers of stuff like "there´s a kind of hush" or "96 Tears"...

Levis Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 i'm just learning right now so my opinion is unlikely to hold much importance but i got this great feeling of accomplishment when i played E and G and got a sound vaguely resembling the opening of 'about a girl'...must move further now! :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I like playing mostly the ones I have learned most recently. Right now my favorites are "Crossroads" by Eric Clapton and "I'm the Slime" by Frank Zappa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunt_Acid Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Sweet Home Alabama Wish You Were Here- Pink Floyd From The Beginning- Emerson Lake and Palmer Jessica- Allman Brothers Fixing A Hole- Beatles Stairway To Heaven Dazed and Confused That's all I've got. I'm sure I'll think of more later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainMikeRS Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 At the Action Music I go to for gear and lessons half of the songs named were banned from being played within the store, such as: Sweet Home Alabama Anything by Metalica, Korn and similar artists Stairway to Heaven Iron Man and the list goes on for a total of 13 as well as tapping!

Danielj Posted March 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 That song is wonderful, I downloaded A Graham Nash/David Crosby BBC acoustic concert the other day and they play that. It is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 There is a good site, www.thetabworld.com, where you can find many tabs for guitar. If you can play "La Bamba" you can play "All along the watchtower", "Like a rolling Stone", "Twist & Shout", etc.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody_home Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Back in Black - easiest thing you'll ever play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Jayson_ Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Man it has been forever since I've posted here. Alter Bridge - Find The Real Make sure you you tune down half a step and use drop D tuning, C# in this case. This song is fun to play just because it's so melodic and heavy at the same time. Rage Against the Machine - Killing In The Name A really cool riff. Depending on your hit on / pull off skills, you might be able to play Lynyrd Skynyrd - I know a little |---------5-5-|---------5-5----6--5--|---------5-5-|---------5-5---6--5-| |-----5-7-----|-----5-7--------6--5--|-----5-7-----|-----5-7-------6--5-| |-5-6---------|-5-6------------7--6--|-5-6---------|-5-6-----------6--5-| |-------------|----------------6--5--|-------------|---------------5--4-| |-------------|----------------8--7--|-------------|---------------6--5-| |-------------|----------------6--5--|-------------|--------------------| Soundgarden - Fell on Black Days You might be able to play the beginning of The Satch's - Satch Boogie Good luck with your guitar playing.

Batman Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I personally think guitartabs.cc is the best site for tabs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I´m helping my husband now with Creedence Clearwater Revival... "Looking out my back door" and "Lodi"...it´s very simple but it does rock! I always make punk covers of stuff like "there´s a kind of hush" or "96 Tears"... Do a punk version of Wooley Bully...you'll love it. It is extremely fun to bang out You Really Got Me, All Day and All of the Night, Where have All The Good Times Gone" Old Kinks stuff still rocks. Download Power Tabs and you'll never look back. You can write your own tabs on the site and print out. You can look up the tabs to any song, download, press play and the site plays back how the tabs should sound, highlighting each note as it's played. Also try Wholenote.com for lessons, tabs, create your own songs, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Oh yeah, the riff for Schools Out is easy and fun too.
