I'm a beginner and I'm trying to play Help me Rhonda from Jumpin Jim's Beach song book. He has some short "picking" spots in it. After I've picked those is there an easy way to get back to the chords and singing? The 2nd section you need to go back to the first part of the song for the 2nd verse. That involves turning the page and the chord is easy, a C, but getting there takes more soundless time then it probably should.
I also need help singing the verses that aren't the easy "Help Help me" but since I can't sing there probably isn't too much you can do for me there. Thanks.
One more thing, when I get good enough to play it at our Jam sessions, do you think it would sound better with my Kamaka pineapple or the Kala 8 string? (The 8 string is much louder and probably a little easier to get a loud pick sound but the pineapple is easier to hold even using the leash.) I'm equally poor at both.
