Free Guitar Riff Lessons

Check out Marcos Farhat's website: www.farhat.name. I usually don't put the name of the link in the link, but I just love that web-page name.

Anyhow, Mr., er, Señor Farhat is an Argentinian guitarist who has a few dozen classic rock intros, riffs, and solos in multiple camera angles. Twenty-five years ago, I would have been all over this (that's how old most of the songs are, hah!).

For now, the site is not riddled with popups (but it is available in multiple languages, which is cool). He is trying to make the site supported by advertising, donations, and the sale of his videos (which if you are dying to learn Metallica and Iron Maiden licks in higher resolution - it looks like a must).

Anyhow, if I ever go to Argentina, I would want to meet Marcos. From his C.V., it looks like he is about my age - and has impressive experience in music.

I wish I had the ability and the time to create a website to teach like that. My angle would be on teaching guitarists how to read music (a massive VOID in the music world). Sadly, the education of most guitarists is from chords to tabs. I'm not helping out yet, either...
