Stairway To Heaven Part 4

This interlude is easier to play than the main riff that we’ve already learned. There are two variations. In the first, the basic chord progression is C, D, Fmaj7, Am, C, G, D:

In the variation, in the last 2 measures, the chord progression is slightly altered with the G being replaced by D and it ends on Fmaj7:

Funny Fingers…

Here’s a look at how you might want to fingerpick it:

Wham- Lonnie Mack

You should have some fun with this intro. It isn’t difficult, and all based on barre chords, except for the very first measure.

Here’s what it sounds like looped at the normal tempo of 120 bpm:

Blue Wind- Jeff Beck

This riff is in 4/4 time except for the 2nd measure in which we switch to 2/4 time (only 2 beats).

Notice that the 4th measure mirrors the 1st measure, but with the addition of bends. This is a typical Jeff Beckism. It may be tricky to get it to sound right because it relies on precise bending.
