Guitar Noise Podcast #26 – Summer Camp

Here’s a song I’m sure most of you know and maybe learned in some summer camp or musical get together. It’s a lot of fun to play and we’ve kindly provided the words and chords to the first verse and chorus:

Puff The Magic Dragon

For this Guitar Noise Podcast, we’ll work on getting the basics down, plus have a little fun with the bass line. Next time out, we’ll add the challenge of playing along with a second guitarist.

As always, I’ll be walking you through each step, so come on along and join in the fun. And, again as always, please let us know what you think.

Peace

    Wow, I was telling a load of my friends on JamPLay.com about this website for the great beginner and intermediate songs, and then someone who is familiar with this site informed me that the podcasts were kickass too. I didn’t realise there were podcasts so this is a real exciting find.

    Brilliant stuff!!!

    And don’t forget the forums. You’ll find a friendly and helpful bunch of guitar players there.
