Lol, you are right! I completely forgot that monday’s lesson comment was indeed to post songs that use syncopation, lol. And to be honest I did scan the comments, but nothing really jumped out at me and to have to scroll through so many to find suggestions was a slog. I still think it would be helpful if Tony provided some “official references” up front to at least get started. I mean he had to have something in mind for the lesson, right?

I also want to congratulate you on your guitar journey and for sharing your experience! Your point of tracking progress is very valid and a real great reminder!! I think this is part of the reason why TAC is working so far is that its forcing me to record myself with the benchmarks and listen to how I sound, as embarrassing as it is, as I’m SO FAR away from where I want to be! But knowing that I am making progress is vital to keep the practice routine going. To be honest much of TAC falls under my fingers pretty quickly (at a basic level) so like you, I too am looking for the really challenging lessons, and its lessons like the “Golden Brown Perfection” lick that dont fall naturally under my fingers that make me come back and keep practicing! I would hate to see them disappear because of lack of understanding the greater concept, and one way to bridge that is with examples of the techniques being used in the real world so you can hear how it works in the context of a song.
