Music Two new Alex Lifeson Rush guitar lessons available in GarageBand

Apple on Tuesday posted two new lessons from Rush guitarist, Alex Lifeson, in the GarageBand Lesson Store.
The first song, “Working Man” comes from Rush’s older catalog when the band was still finding it’s sound. There is no doubt this is a classic song from the band’s collection and one of my personal favorites.
The second song is “The Spirit of Radio.” This song features one of Lifeson’s classic Rush riffs in the beginning before heading into the sound that Rush became known for over several of its albums.
Both songs are available now in the GarageBand Lesson Store. The lessons cost $4.99 each.

This is cool – I wish I played the guitar.
I have to admit that I’m a little disappointed with the celebrity lessons so far. I don’t find the choice of piano song tutorials to be particularly interesting. That’s probably more reflective of my musical taste, though – clearly Apple’s trying to reach a mainstream audience.

Sounds interesting. Maybe I will check it out.
