Tips, Tricks and Tools for Remembering Your Repertoire

Remembering those pesky songs - Lesson

Triggers are a way to remember a song or harmonic progression, independent of a particular key. It is a pathway or road map through a song. I've always had trouble remembering songs and was amazed at how musicians such as Chuck Anderson and Jimmy Bruno can remember so many songs. I'm sure the great remember musicians remember songs this way or in a very similiar manner.

Common Progressions - Lesson

Songs with similiar progressions.
