Re: new member - question about mpeg3 players for guitarists

Hope I am doing this right - this is my first post.
I noticed that acoustic guitar mag is doing a Bruce Cockburn lesson and
interview and it includes some cool PDF Tabs of his stuff ( like rocket launcher
solo riff) plus videos. Maybe everyone's already aware of this. Here's the
link...http://www.acousticguitar.com/ If they ask for a password I beleive it
is zeppelin ( the passwords are on the bottom of pages in the mag) newstand)
By the way Cockburn mentions that he is a modal type player so he may not be
thinking I IV V progressions but more like G myxlodian or something.
Unfortunately this makes it harder to transcribe his stuff but that's why its so
good.

all here on the internet. I live on a sailboat, and in preparation for a
round-the-world journey, have decided to finally accept the challenges of
learning many Cockburn songs. I have a few guitars on the boat. Martin D-18, an
Ovation, and Stratocaster.

give a player a fighting chance! I used to do this in the 70's by slowing up the
turntable, in the 90's by grabbing a snippet and playing it back ad-infinitum.
anyone know of a mpeg3 player that can accomplish such a feat?

I can add my 2 cents to this as well.  The Line 6 TonePort, or I guess it's called POD Studio now, is a guitar/computer interface.  It has some of their...

Waiting for the Moon has been tabbed well and is fairly easy to play.  It may be in one of his books.  Drop D tuning, Capo II unless you can sing bass well. ...
