Thanks for the Joy to the World lesson. I've only got one dropped-D number in my repertoire, and you're showing some more ways to make good use of it in JTTW. Now if only I could find some extra hours for even more practice. (Darn day job. )

| yes i really liked the joy to the world lesson. it's helpful to watch how happy constructs a song arrangement using the simple G scale. it's a pretty melody. i love xmas songs! i have ordered several of happy's lessons for xmas, happy's gospel dvds and the essential blues dvd, and even though i am an old picker with alot of bad habits, i am very much looking forward to his instruction, and starting the new year off with some good habits! mark

Honestly, I hadn't looked at them until just now because I have come to expect the Homespun video samples to be teeny tiny little bits in the corner and my eyes don't really enjoy them that much. I've just watched the Aaron Gilmartin video there and actually it was big and useful. Makes me want to buy that DVD where I hadn't thought of it before.
I guess what I'd say about that is that we have our expectations and make decisions about whether to 'click' on them based on those expectations. I expected the smaller, long time loading videos and so didn't click on them. So if there is a slow response to them that would be a good reason for it, IMHO.
enjoy your karma, after all you earned it.

Happy: The 'quick licks' are great and bring me to your site a little more frequently than usual (which was pretty frequent). The Brownie DVD, long awaited, has helped me REALLY play songs I have been trying to play for almost 50 years. I don't know what the 'mini-lessons' you refer to are. I also now have a problem playing excerpts from the material on the site; I used to have no problem (except for the 'quick licks' I just get no image or sound and I think I have every player known to man on my computer). Any thoughts?

Hi Jim,
I have no idea why our samples aren't playing for you. The only thing I can suggest is that you update your Flash Player. We've had occasional problems with certain clips, but for the most part they seem to be working fine. Let us know if there is anything else we can do to help. If others are having the same problem we'd like to hear from you.
Musically yours,
Happy
