Status: offline 		i'm learning the guitar right now. and as some people may know sometimes it's fun to break up the monotany of of grinding through simple songs by actually learning a popular tune

i'm considering trying to learn blind melon's "no rain"

and soul asylum's runaway train

so if you have a link to a great acoustic song i'd love to hear it :)

When An Old Cricketer Leaves The Crease
Or just google Roy Harper. There's plenty of magnificent unplugged stuff on Stormcock, Valentine, and Lifemask...

Cheers, I hope this helps.

(My My Hey Hey and Pocohantas are both pretty simple acoustic songs with slow tempos, though...)
