moving towards rock

so today in my guitar lesson we decided to look at some rock songs. my teacher suggested Cream's "sunshine of your love," Mountain's "Mississippi Queen" and the allman brother's "Rambling Man." I"m all for it. As much as I like the blues, these classic rock songs are a part of my past -- we all grew up on this stuff. It resonates more with me than the blues songs which are mostly pretty new to me. Plus, these rock songs use major and minor pentatonic, which I Know, and they use more than I IV V chords! Gotta admit I"m a little tired of that one chord progression for every blues song.

So, now, it is time to rock!
