In this guitar lesson, we learn how to play The River by Bruce Springsteen, an iconic track from one of the best songwriters of all time. This is a great track to work on some ‘picked fingerstyle’ where you pick up individual notes while strumming – a very cool technique that you’ll be able to apply to many other songs when you learned it! #GuitarLesson #BruceSpringsteen #AcousticGuitar
