Thread Name: No such thing as a B-sharp
Subject: RE: No such thing as a B-sharp
As a self taught guitarist with very bad Osteo Arthritic fingeers who can't physically managed certain chords, I'm amazed how many songs on chord web sites have what I consider far too many chords, yes ok if you're a serious musician or learning formally, or have healthy fingers, then of course you want to play ALL the chords. Yet most of my repertoire, much of which originally had quite complicated chords, I've found or devised much simpler chords for, and from listening to others basically sound just as good, I'm sure all the serious misicians might be horrified, but is it really neccessary to play ALL the chords given?
