Once again, we visit five songs (and a bonus track!) that featured in some way in the studio and my week just gone. Have a listen and you can be a virtual ‘fly on the wall’ in others lessons!
1. You can go your own way – Fleetwood Mac
Absolute classic, been revisiting Fleetwood Mac since I heard ‘The Chain’ whilst out and about a few weeks ago.
2. Jealous Guy – Donny Hathaway (written by John Lennon)
I’ve been working my way through Donny’s back-catalog and this has been my favourite so far.

3. Great is thy faithfulness – Hymn
This is not the best version out there but it’s a good attempt of a classic hymn on the American ‘The Voice’ series.

4. Run – Leona Lewis (written by Snow Patrol)
A song we all know but you might not recognise til you get to the chorus!
5. Guitar Boogie – Tommy Emmanuel
NOT vocals, but a few clients had never heard of this ludicrously talented guitarist – Tommy Emmanuel – so here is one of his most insanely impressive and musical pieces.
BONUS:
If you’re into Marvel films, this awesome Led Zeppelin track was featured in the latest trailer for the upcoming Thor film (the song is ‘The Immigrant Song’)
The Sunday 6PM Technique Drop
One high-impact vocal technique insight, every week.
