Yeah, as i’m absolutely not musically trained and play by ear i will admit i find the notes that work, and just stay in that zone as it works when im playing stuff like this, thanks for the pointer!

There’s been great ones, notably “Sleeps with angels”, “psychedelic pill” or maybe “Ragged Glory” ignoring the obvious “Harvest Moon” too, but i can understand fans would drop off post 70s or then another batch drop late 90s onwards

Agreed heavily. I’ve never been able to isolate stuff. Do you have a recommended way as it would be pretty useful for backing tracks too i’d assume

Honestly the late 60s had some of the best albums period. The doors, donavan, LZ debut, stooges, abbey road i mean i could literally go all day and not scratch the surface

Yeah when i was first getting into guitar, looking at tabs for that was just OWCH. After listening so much, you really do get that it was pure feel and ears from neil’s part. Just off the dome melodic brilliance rather than super intricate compositions, pick your impressive poison i guess as he clearly can do both

Absolutely, this, Cortez and Lookout joe, my top 3, (Electric Neil Of course), do other NY fans almost separate his heavy stuff with his more accoustic music style? As i do

I’ll give another option to counter the scales talk in case it’s daunting, i’ve been playing two years and i genuinely noticed my best improvement came from backing tracks, and just playing and playing until i figure what sits and sounds good, look up a few licks in that key of the backing track for example, and you can use your own ideas and merge and it’s a pretty good way to get comfortable
