Listen No. 28 - How to play the folk guitar by Dick Weissmann and Dan Fox
Record number 28: How to play the folk guitar by Dick Weissmann and Dan Fox
Genre: Instructional
Context: I have no idea whether Richard tried to learn the guitar. He once told me that he had wanted to learn drums, but had never pursued it.
Dick Weissman is still around. His blog is here.
Notable facts: The cover suggests that I could learn to play guitar ‘Carter Family style, which sounds good. But I only have a keyboard, and am trying to learn piano.
My favourite track: I did actually put this on the turntable. It’s okay - a bit of singing, a bit of instruction. And the record comes with a booklet filled with music that could also be played on a keyboard.
Listening to this inspired me to: carry on with my piano practice.
