We're doing a cover of The Monkeys, "I'm a Believer" for a picnic this summer, and I figured it would be a piece of cake. We're all familiar with the beginning of this song--the organ sound, the simple repeating guitar notes... Here it is if you don't recall:

Anyway, the guitar player hasn't managed to figure those notes out yet. I'm not a guitar player, but should this be that difficult?

Wow, he must be terrible or have absolutely no skills at learning anything by ear. That is not a hard riff to learn.

This one clearly shows how it's done, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B17W_HT3 ... re=related
It really is VERY simple, I hope he gets it, I would be so embarrassed.
