Messin’ With The Music Part 18 – ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’

We’re back with another song for our ‘Messin” series. This time we picked ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’ by The Who. It’s always fun to see what you can do with a butt kicking rock song when you take it down to acoustic instruments. The song originally came out in 1971 for their album ‘Who’s Next’.Continue reading “Messin’ With The Music Part 18 – ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’”

Messin With The Music Part 8 – Everything That Rises Must Converge

They also doContinue reading “Messin With The Music Part 8 – Everything That Rises Must Converge”

People have heard it, but it’s not one of their real famous commercially played songs. It was also one ofContinue reading “Messin With The Music Part 7 – Dead Flowers”

Messin With The Music Part 6 – Jeepster

Welcome to 2020. When this song was written that date was the realm of science fiction. We’d be living on other planets, have flying cars and could teleport. Yeah, well. T. Rex released Jeepster at the end of 1971. The song’s chords and structure are basically ‘blues’ oriented. But throw in a few pounds ofContinue reading “Messin With The Music Part 6 – Jeepster”
