It's a chord proggression. Buy the book in a music shop like Ken Steven's or something.
And you're not THAT old.
Can I just ask how loud you let your son play guitar?

Hang on a moment, Will

What the devil are you on about?

I don't seem to be able to find a copy of the "Classical Guitar Grade 3 Trinity Guilldhall book i" , hanging around in my kitchen, maybe the dog ate it.

But is that a progression, a chord, a position or what ?

please explain

your old mate

The half Barre in A minor. No it exists, it's in the Classical Guitar Grade 3 Trinity Guilldhall book if you don't believe me.

The Am G F E progression if transposed to Cm, is Stray Cat Strut by The Stray Cats, a favorite of mine for years.

I think that progression is known as a modal blues too.

cheers

I Thought I'd open a section where everyone can post their favorite chord progressions to endlessly solo over, I'll start with some of the popular ones and add a few of my own.
-Any twelve bar blues shuffle (WAY too many variations to name)
- Am G F E (solo in Am)
- Em (for six beats) D (remaining two beats) solo in Em
- Am C F Am (solo in Am, from "Take Me Back" by Bryan Adams)
- F#m C7 Bm F#m (solo in F#m)
- Bm F#7 Asus2 E G D Em F#7 (Hotel california solo in Bm)
- Am G Fmaj7 Fmaj7 (stairway to heaven solo in Am)
- Em C Em6 C *Em6 022020 (solo in Em, it should be obvious where this progression is from)
- Em G D A (solo in Em)
- Em/G D/F# C/G B7/F# (spanish progression, solo in Em but play Eb note instead of E when soloing over the B7/F# chord)
-Dm Am7 F A7/G (solo in Dm, this is the only progession here that I wrote myself)

Theres a few to start off, please add more, good soloing chords are incredibly valuable tools for any guitar player!
