Over the last two months I made many updates to my lesson materials. I updated my BASS GUITAR page with a free PDF of my Bass Guitar Chords Method part 1, a free PDF of my Strumming Rhythms Index part 1, as well as a link to purchase Book 1, a free PDF of my Bass Guitar Note-Reading Method part 1, a free PDF of my Bass Guitar Recital Songs 1 to 6, and recordings of Recital Songs 1 to 5. I updated my Guitar and Ukulele Karate Belt Requirements by re-distributing the Strumming Rhythms Index (only starting it in Orange Belt so they can get through all of Level 1 first). I also updated my Snare Drum Method Book, Level 1 (Lessons 1 to 4), which now includes 2/4, 4/4, and 3/4 time, and I also added Snare Drum Recital Song 1.
Most of my time was spent adding to my SONGS page, including All Mixed Up by 311 (lyrics and chords), Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2) by Pink Floyd (lyrics and chords), Bad Blood by Bastille (lyrics and chords), Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz (lyrics and chords), Come Sail Away by Styx (piano and riffs), Eye of the Tiger by Survivor (riffs and lyrics and chords, with and without capo), Heathens by Twenty One Pilots (lyrics and chords), House of Gold (with and without a capo) by Twenty One Pilots (lyrics and chords), How Soon is Now? by The Smiths (lyrics and chords), Louie Louie by The Kingsmen (lyrics and chords), Lovesong by The Cure (lyrics and chords), Nutshell by Alice In Chains (riffs) and (lyrics and chords), Radioactive by Imagine Dragons (lyrics and chords), Rainbow Connection by Kermit the Frog (lyrics and chords), Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash (riffs and lyrics and chords, one with the meter simplified), Take On Me (with and without capo and acoustic version) by A-Ha (lyrics and chords), Three Little Birds by Bob Marley (lyrics and chords), and Wild Thing by The Troggs (lyrics and chords). After the addition of these songs, I also updated my Guitar, Ukulele, and Piano Setlist Curriculums.
All of these materials can be found under the FOR MY STUDENTS tab, on the BASS GUITAR, GUITAR, PIANO, SNARE DRUM, SONGS, and UKULELE pages. As always, please let me know if you use any of these teaching materials with your students, and if you find them helpful, or if you have any questions or comments.
