Welcome to everybody. As today&#8217;s News unfurled there was the regular rundown of new stuff with a few thoughts on strings (coated or not), tunings (the Steve Stills question), and an encouraging plug for an upcoming album that everybody should consider adding to their library. This was tied into today&#8217;s new lesson,<a title=\"Hold On - JJ Cale - Guitar Lesson\" href=\"http:\/\/www.totallyguitars.com\/target-songs\/648-j-j-cale\/7024-hold-on-jj-cale-guitar-lesson.html\"> Hold On by J.J. Cale<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of strings, I was even tempted into changing mine during the News as the quality had deteriorated way beyond acceptable. Maybe soon we&#8217;ll get back to practical advice and a quick demonstration of my approach.<\/p>\n<p>The new stuff included <a title=\"Love Will Keep Us Alive - Eagles - Guitar Lesson\" href=\"http:\/\/www.totallyguitars.com\/target-songs\/332-eagles\/7021-love-will-keep-us-alive-eagles-guitar-lesson.html\">The Eagles&#8217; Love Will Keep Us Alive<\/a>, the last installment of <a title=\"Whodunit? - Neil Hogan - Guitar Lesson\" href=\"http:\/\/www.totallyguitars.com\/target-songs\/518-neil-hogan-instrumentals-\/7005-whodunit-neil-hogan-guitar-lesson.html\">Whodunit<\/a>, a <a title=\"Fly on the Wall - In My Life with Fred\" href=\"http:\/\/www.totallyguitars.com\/target-songs\/494-fly-on-the-wall\/7022-in-my-life-with-fred.html\">Fly video with Fred<\/a> working on In My Life, my take on <a title=\"Lagrima - Francisco Tarrega - Classical Guitar\" href=\"http:\/\/www.totallyguitars.com\/target-songs\/614-classical-guitar\/7023-lagrima-francisco-tarrega-classical-guitar-lesson.html\">Lagrima<\/a>, and the already mentioned <a title=\" Hold On - JJ Cale - Guitar Lesson\" href=\"http:\/\/www.totallyguitars.com\/target-songs\/648-j-j-cale\/7024-hold-on-jj-cale-guitar-lesson.html\">J.J.
