In this first lesson we will learn the chords and basic structure of the song. We first deal with the bass, slowing it down so we can hear what is going on.
Pay attention to your tempo and make sure you have a good handle on the bass before moving on.

Really like the rag type feel.
You doing great...guitar sound real good. Keep eorkiwoon your singing... someĀ parts sound more confident than others. Focus on singing a little more in rhythm...you are almost there. Also try putting in hard stops on the breaks instead of letting the strings ring...just see how it feels to you. Also I would suggest a more rag time sounding ending that either keeps the same tempo or halves it....good work.
Hey Corey, really enjoying this series, looking forward to seeing you Thursday night in Sydney!
Thanks
