Polish the first three songs clean! It’s crunch time.
Grant
Hey Grant! As an added tip for Englishman In New York, for the upbeat chords, go ahead and mark the downbeats like we practiced by striking the muted strings. This will help keep you aware of where the beat is exactly instead of just trying to float chords in between beats. You should match the plucked strings if you play along to the recording.
Madeleine
Here’s your bass solo. Please pretend I know how to hold the instrument and that the intonation isn’t atrocious. Sorry you might have to see this Max.
Definitely focus on first getting down the Englishman in New York chorus background vocals before you try the bridge.
