A guitar-playing and songwriting course.
Like all great musicians, great songwriters are probably born, not made. No tutor, no book, no course, can make you write songs that embed themselves in the memory of a generation and achieve critical as well as commercial acclaim. Only a few people will ever compose songs of the stature of ‘Good Vibrations’, ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’, ‘Walk On By’ or ‘Like A Rolling Stone’. Some of us grew up being told these were just pop songs, disposable artefacts to enjoy today and throw away tomorrow. Thirty years on they aren’t looking quite so disposable, and we are beginning to appreciate that the artists who wrote and performed them are maybe not as common as was once assumed.
