Learn to Play Guitar: Access printouts, backing tracks, videos and sound bites.

Born in 1957, Nick Minnion grew up to a soundtrack of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Nick was first given a guitar at the age of eight, but he wasn’t a natural. Today, he says that he’s so patient with his pupils because he knows how difficult learning guitar can be.

Although he learned the trumpet in high school (to meet girls in the local orchestra), Nick was dropped not long after because there were too many trumpet players – presumably other boys who had the same idea! However, his passion for music didn’t fade, and over the years Nick has gained a strong working knowledge of the principles of music.

He listens to anything from Beethoven to Nirvana – and everything in between! His broad musical tastes mean he has mastered the guitar in a variety of styles and genres.

FLEXIBLE TEACHING

Nick believes in teaching every pupil according to their aspirations, learning style and ability. He keeps his teaching style flexible, aiming to help pupils reach their own goals rather than working to a rigid framework. That’s why he created the Secret Guitar Teacher. Packed with learning resources that Nick himself has written and produced over the years, the website can enable anyone to learn how to play guitar at their own pace, in their own way.

IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU

Although Nick loves music, teaching is his first love. He’s a natural teacher and started teaching guitar at the age of 15, meaning he now has over 40 years’ experience. Nick believes that learning and teaching feed into one other, and he’s keen to hear from his online pupils. He offers unlimited email support to all £12 a month members, and can even provide a service where he ‘tailor makes’ his courses to suit your needs, helping you to find the right path to learn guitar and resolve any issues you’re having with your guitar playing. Nick says that a great teacher makes the pupil the star, while they themselves become almost invisible – and as the Secret Guitar Teacher, he knows all about that.

MAKING REAL MUSICIANS

Nick’s experience and passion is what makes the Secret Guitar Teacher different from other online guitar lessons. He’s not interested in simply teaching his pupils a few songs, or how to pass a guitar grade exam – he wants to help everyone understand guitar and understand music. Nick believes in making real musicians.

Johnny Cash, Remembering Easter

In honor of Easter, I'm sharing this video of Johnny (and the Carter family; including June). This was in 1962 before Johnny and June were married (March 1, 1968) was a day of celebration for Johnny Cash and June Carter: It was on that date that the couple wed in Franklin, Ky. The two were married just one week after Cash proposed while they were performing together in London, Ontario, Canada, on Feb. 22.

Rare 1967 Johnny Cash and June Carter Video

Wow, here's a rare video just put up on Youtube. This shows how fond Johnny was of June before they got married the following year. The video is some time in 67 and then later on March 1st they were married.

I just updated my "J Cash Lives" web page. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

5 Ways to Sing Better Than Johnny Cash; or Not.

Some readers know that I do a Johnny Cash tribute and I'm thinking there are a few readers who enjoy playing Johnny Cash songs, and/or just love to sing and would like to sing publicly and make money and even a full time career doing so.

I found a few products, training etc. that you may want to look into. I suggest that you look at all five of these and then choose one or two which fits your needs and wants, and then be disciplined and finish the course! Also, before, during and after going through one of these products, leave your comments below. We certainly want to always offer things of value on this site.

Here's the first one:

CLICK HERE TO VISIT Superior Singing Method

CLICK HERE TO VISIT Anyone Can Sign Like a Star

CLICK HERE TO VISIT (and watch the free videos and listen to free audios)

CLICK HERE TO VISIT OnPitchSinging

CLICK HERE TO VISIT PitchMasterPro

So there are five sources which you should check out to improve your singing regardless of your singing goals. You may or may not sing as well or better than Johnny Cash, but learn from these sources which are out there and available for you and then follow your heart. If that sounds "corny" than you have quite a way to go in attaining your goals.

Best of success! And like I said let us know with your comments below if you have comments before, during and after getting these products and let us know what you think.

Do well!
