This session features Train songs but that’s only a suggestion. I will go through Liz Cotton’s Freight Train as a basic introduction to Travis Picking for beginner/intermediate players. Chord shapes are C Em F and G and G7. If someone wants to do it in A we can do that.

C | G7 G6 | C | C |

If some just wish to play and listen we can break into two groups.
Beginners should review Chromatic and Diatonic scales but this is not a prerequisite.
