Description: The Active Melody monthly challenge December 2023 (posting Sunday January 7th 2024)… “What you would play if somebody said ‘Just pick up the guitar and play something.” This one, lesson EP074 on Active Melody, is the first lesson I ever learned: Eric Clapton style gospel blues….

Happy New Year!
