This is an example of a song where there are instrumental progressions used that are different from those used in the vocal sections. These instrumental sections include leads that are more composed than improvised, and are the type that can be beneficial to learn, rather than one that is improvised and played differently every time. We have also included a bonus segment that is audio from a concert Neil did with Al in 2005, and played the lead parts addressed in this lesson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have had the rhythm guitar parts to *Year Of The Cat*available for some time but we now have added new videos going over the lead sections to this great song by Al Stewart.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[169],"tags":[18,343,177,176,55,16,173,174,175,172,35,29,178,27,342],"class_list":["post-384","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-guitar-lessons-2","tag-acoustic-guitar","tag-al-stewart","tag-chords","tag-free-online-lesson","tag-guitar-lesson","tag-guitar-lessons","tag-learn-guitar","tag-learn-play-guitar","tag-learn-to-play-guitar","tag-lessons-guitar","tag-tab","tag-totally-guitars","tag-totallyguitars","tag-totallyguitars-com","tag-year-of-the-cat"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
