We've done some live streaming concerts during this co-vid 19 time, but we are not scheduling any concerts during this time.  (See link on Home Page for our Facebook Concert with Video).

Click on the link below to download a zip file containing the 14 songs that I recorded for "John McCoy's Magic Modes Book/MP3 files" project.  It teaches improvisation and composition with the various modes and covers numerous styles including rock, blues, jazz, flamenco, country, southern rock and more.  I (John) composed all of the songs on this project and played guitar(s), bass, drums, various types of percussion, and I used my guitar synthesizer for all other instrumentation:

(Click on the Link Below to Go To the 1980's Audio Page)

These songs were recorded between 1985-89.  I used an 8 track cassette recorder and would mix down the audio to a Hi-Fi VCR and a bit later to a Mini Disc recorder.  I wrote most of these songs except for Sonata in Am by T. Giordani where I took a manuscript that was arranged for guitar and harpsichord and I added my own string arrangement.  The only other non original was You Got It by Jeff Lynne and Roy Orbison.  For the rhythm background tracks I did step sequence recording for drums and then played keyboards or used my Roland guitar synthesizer for the pianos, strings, bass, and other instrumentation.  YES, that's me singing!  Of course I played real guitars on these recordings because I'm the Real McCoy:-)!

STUDENT COMMENTS:

After taking guitar lessons from John McCoy for 2 years, I found John to be an excellent, versatile guitarist of various styles and an excellent instructor.  He is very knowledgeable of music and guitar theory, technique of various genres, including Jazz, Rock, Blues, Classical and Spanish Flamenco.  He was willing to customize my lessons to meet my goals, allowed me to progress at my own pace and was responsive to my questions.  He was very patient with me and could empathize with my struggles with gaining new skills. I highly recommend John as a guitar instructor.

Hey John,

Thanks for your introductory offer of buying one lesson and then getting one more lesson free as that is what prompted me to try your guitar lessons after checking out your website. I'm sold on your teaching and the effectiveness of your online Skype guitar lesson format.  My previous teacher was 30 minutes away (one way) and he did not have your knowledge or skills.  I have just paid for the next four lessons on your payment page.  I'm highly recommending your services to a fellow band member and hopefully he'll get inspired to learn some new tricks from you.  I'll see you next week at the same time.

Thanks,

Matt

Hi John,

First let me say that I am thrilled with the new use of technology. Trystan is excited about his lessons. I am also thrilled that I have one more hour of my day to be work done.  I wanted to let you know that as soon as you think Trystan could use a longer lesson than 30 minutes I am more than willing to pay for it. Just let me know.

In Christ,

Krystal
