Homeskoolin’ Bonus “Learn A Song”

Chapters
00:00 - Cover: Paul McCartney - Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey


Notes

I just learned this very quickly, didn’t do a deep dive to get it EXACTLY, just a rough approximation more so just to get the feel

Just some old school muscle shoals licks with a TON of reverb on them over the top of another brilliant quirky composition by the greatest pop songwriter that ever walked on this planet…I’ll take it
