WorkshopLive is excited to announce our newest teacher, Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Robert Lee Castleman. Mr. Castleman, with the assistance of Greg Horne, will guide you note-for-note through every part of his award-winning song “Like Red on a Rose,” taught in two intermediate guitar lessons. Recorded by Alan Jackson and nominated for Best Country Song of the Year (2006), it is country music at its best— down-to-earth, poetic, and unforgettable. This arrangement is based on the Robert Lee Castleman recording from his solo release, Crazy as Me. You’ve got to check out his unique playing approach and eclectic songwriting chops. He’ll show you some cool chords, bends, hammer-ons and pull-offs; you’ll be playing the full arrangement in no time! Pianists and vocalists fear not; you can buy the sheet music through National Guitar Workshop Publications right here!
We’ve got more for you—bass players, here’s an early gift! Also new this time around are 18 advanced rock bass lessons taught by a true virtuoso, Dave Overthrow. You may have seen him in the last issue of Tuned In, and now he’s back with lots to offer. He’ll teach you everything from harmonics and playing chords to tapping and playing in the style of some bass greats such as James Jamerson and Duck Dunn.
