Startin Sunday off right. Feelin' Satisfied from Boston.

Has that great guitar strumming/hand clapping breaks at 00:54 and 2:30.

If you know other songs with great strumming breaks, throw out a link.

what a strange topic and thread,, strumming.. ....wow good job..

i think a good strummer is more talented than a lead player..

i think NIG mentioned Sister Golden HAir the other day .. another one.. tons of them..

lots of musicians spend their time practicing rythum and not leads.. those guys are the

true talent.. AMERICA..

Can't disagree there. Even guys that are famous for their lead playing like Eddie Van Halen are just monster rhythm players. I've always admired EVH more for that area of his playing that his two-handed tapping or any of that other stuff.
