Track of the Week - Dude Looks Like a Lady by Aerosmith
July 22nd, 2008This week I’ve chosen Dude Looks Like a Lady as it’s such a classic and I haven’t heard it in a while.
It’s what I’d call a meat and potatoes kinda track…. It’s simple, but effective. It’s all you need.
It’s relatively fast, but simple enough for a beginner to be able to get to grips with.
It’s also good to work on your ¼ note, bell of the ride groove – a classic groove amongst old school rock tracks.
Here’s the breakdown…..
