Subject: RE: Relearning Guitar After 35 Years Off
Linda, here are some links to free folk-blues stuff from a fellow Marylander (I'm over on the Eastern Shore) that addresses some of the concerns you brought up (hand pain, theory, playing & singing, etc.):
The How and the Tao of Folk Guitar
An open source guitar book.
Folk Guitar
Four half-hour video lessons. Lessons five through eight will be going online sometime in January or February.
The Subway Shuffle
Blues guitar from the Philadelphia subway system.
Another Subway Shuffle workshop - only this time on YouTube.
