hi iam 51 years old and have just started "finger picking". what ive found by asking other
buskers that the style of your finger picking is unique to yourself.yes you have P.I.M.A but i for one finger pick my guitar in my own style that suits me.so dont be put off by books showing how to play. just as they say, do it your way.

as with most sites the songs are arranged by "ear" you cannot post songs from a copy writed
book ...hence some chords will be "off key" according to ones preception of sound....for instance i somtimes play B7 instead of B .....so yes some songs are not to form and also most people who post songs are not pros...just amatures like me. also even when i buy song books i still somtimes have to transpose cords or use a cappo to suit my style of playing.
can you tell me what do you call bad songs ie.......i love all sixties... beatles...shadows..etc also love lindisfarne.....but i detest punk......so if one person dislikes anothers genre...what song will be deleted.....or do you mean badly written so therefor you cannot play..
