when i first started to play the guitar i was tought by a ex jazz/blues player, he tought me to use scales first and that will loosen ya fingers up ect, though im not anywhere NEAR good as i aint touched my les paul since i was 18,,,,, infact the last thing i learn to play was a verve song,,,,,,,,,,, just cause it was easy
when i was in the school band all we done was play ragga though as the main person who arranged it all was fonte from heartless crew as me and him where the only ones who could play anything at school
i took a carreer change as music is a waste of life i got told by my dad,,, jermaine and antother guy ( cant remember his name

) decided to get into dj/making music,,,,,,,,,,,,, there now called heartless crew and i post on passionford
anyway try playing scales to teach ya fingers to move along and know what there doing
then learn to play "green onions "
