Good evening to you. It’s Jeff Copperthite today with www.laptopsessions.com. Today I bring you my first tune from America, which is a band I have been slowly getting into the past 2 years or so.
After our live show at Testa’s Saturday night (which was GREAT! Look for some pictures and video soon on our site), we had a fan request an America song after our 2nd song, so we gave it to him. That made me want to play more, so yesterday I learned the song that I bring you today.
I also know this is one of the most well-known songs by America (and in the world for that matter). I love the strumming pattern and the chords that go with this song. When you hear the song you think it’s tough to play. I hope that this cover is appreciated by the die-hard America fans, as I am slowly joining your ranks the more I hear their music.
I also had the privilege of seeing them in concert this past year (w/ Jim Fusco and Chris Moore as well), and of course they closed their show with this song, and a 3 minute guitar solo by Gerry.
You can’t go wrong with this song. I hope you enjoy today’s edition and come back every day for a new song at http://www.laptopsessions.com!
