Lesson notes

From Jackson Browne's 1972 debut album, Something Fine features delicate fingerpicking, a beautiful introduction, and melodic interludes between verses.

The arrangement uses an alternate tuning with the fifth string lowered from A to G. The lesson stays at standard pitch with just that adjustment, concentrating on the introduction, interludes, and verse and chorus progressions.

The chord shapes are approachable, but the picking requires some familiarity with alternating patterns. Slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs add expression, while variations in the picking help keep each performance fresh.
