Australian Invasion

Friday, May 11. 2007

It was back in the 80s when two Russells, Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell, started making beautiful music together. Back-ups did come and go, but this musical duo was tougher than marriage. They've stuck it out through fame and defeat while invading the American music industry. Actually, they first met in "Jesus Christ Superstar" in 1986 and started a band called Air Supply. But thanks to Rod Stewart, they made a stunning international breakthrough after playing the front act for Stewart's North American Tour. The Australian music legend, Air Supply, made a debut on airwaves when they signed a record deal for Arista in 1980.

Closing your eyes and holding on to it for a while will make you a better player. Do your own routine. Mix and play.

That's very important than act ually memorizing the chords. If you know the song, you'll k now how it sounds for sure.

It's easier to play the piano because you'll just have to fi ddle with the bars but with gu itars, timing is essential.
