Song 42 - "I Put a Spell on You" by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Oh man did I struggle with this one. It still needs some work, but I’m happy with it for now. In particular, the fast parts with the swung 16th notes. I spent a lot of time on the metronome, which helped a lot, but I never got them perfectly clean and in time. I went back and forth between using a pick and fingers, but ultimately thought it sounded best fingerstyle. At this point I’m just happy all the notes can be heard.

Overall I enjoyed learning this song, it has some terrific guitar work, an interesting chord progression and time signature. Another song I learned a lot from. Thanks for listening!
