Just had a lesson today and I'm happy because my teacher is happy. lol. Last week, he gave me the tune 'Sugar In My Coffee' to learn by ear. The ear didn't do too badly this time.However, up until now, I haven't really been able to fully 'get' the shuffle. I do it, yet it sounds very mechanical. Apparently, 'Sugar In My Coffee' is just the remedy for a 'stiff shuffle' as my teacher tells me this is the first time that I have sounded truly old-timey. What better compliment could a girl want?!?
I tend to think that part of the reason I did so well is that I REALLY like this tune. I had never heard it before, but it has a nice little melody to it - quite catchy and fun to play.
Don't suppose there are any 'tea' tunes out there?!?
