February 23, 1971 www.amazon.com "Heart of Gold" from the 1972 album Harvest www.amazon.com is Neil Young's only number one hit single in his long musical career. Rolling Stone ranked it #297 on their list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. It features the back-up vocals of James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt. The song is one of a series of soft, acoustic pieces which were written partly as a result of a back injury. Unable to stand for long periods of time, he could not play his electric guitar and so returned to his acoustic guitar, which he could play sitting down. The song was taped during the initial sessions for Harvest in early 1971 at Quadrafonic Studios in Nashville, Tennessee. Ronstadt and Taylor were in Nashville at the time for an appearance on Johnny Cash's television program, and the album's producer Elliot Mazer arranged for them to sing backup for Young in the studio.

www.easybassvids.com Here's an easy to do exercise that's great for warming up and getting ready to play. It doesn't require too much thought, and will get the fingers moving and ease your brain into playing bass mode. I first learned this exercise years ago as a teenager when I took Flemenco guitar lessons (yes I took Flemenco lessons from an amazing player who was from Spain - he was the real deal). Then, recently I watched a youtube vid of Dave Larue talking about the very same exercise, so I figured it was worth making up a video for as well
