Landslide

[TomBanks147]

I can play Landslide pretty well now I'd be right in saying the chords are

C, G/B, Am7, G/B Then back to C again and repeat.

And the picking pattern is:

5th 3rd 4th 2nd 5th 3rd 4th if you consider the 5th string to be the A string (theres always confusion with people saying top strings and botton strings, so)

This is all the information you get when looking at tabs (well the sites I go on anyway) I'm just pretty sure the picking pattern and chord change at "I've been afraid of changing"

Also, the solo. Looks more complicated than it sounds (live I mean where theres only the one guitar) and can't find any tabs on how to play it. So if anyone could help me out and direct me to a tab that counts for the solo and the chord change, or talk me through it, I'd realllllly apreciate it.

Thanks guys.

The "Fleetwood Mac: Guitar Anthology Series" (published by Warner Brothers Authentic Guitar-Tab Edition) is still in print. It has Landslide (with the staff notation & tab of the solo), plus a bunch of others: Albatross, Big Love, The Chain, Bleed to Love Her, Never Going Back Again, Gypsy, Hypnotized, Rhiannon, Sentimental Lady, Songbird, Spare Me a Little, Sweet Girl, You Make Loving Fun, &c.

If you're talking about the Dance version, it's basic fingerpicking. Try slowing it down to hear it more clearly.

Also, if you didn't know Lindsey is capoed @ the 3rd fret.

yeah, for landslide the best bet is just listening. most of the time, i have to learn something by ear. this tune was definitely one of those.

when i was learning the solo, i basically just learned the melody part first and then figured out the bass notes under it. it's quite simple, in my opinion, just because it's so rhythmic. keep plugging away. you'll get it.

Hah. I just started taking guitar like a month ot two ago, and I picked it up pretty easily. Not so much the solo, but yeah. Pretty basic stuff.

Post a sound file & let's hear.

You guys all pick it up so easily. I started playing piano when I was a kid & it took me until the late 1990s when those guitar magazines starting publishing transcriptions on staff notation of Lindsey's picking patterns before I could sort of approximate the basic Landslide arrangement.
