I have been playing a game/guitar teaching tool called Rocksmith 2014. If you haven't heard of it, on its face it looks like one of those cheesy Guitar Hero games, but is is not. One huge difference is that one uses his or her real electric guitar or bass to play. Also, there are lessons, dynamic difficulty adjustments, and many other features which make it a fun learning tool.

The game came with 50 or so preloaded songs, and every week, the software company releases new songs for purchase. I have requested just about every Moodies song in the band's and individual members' catalogs, but no luck yet. The software company said that it is in almost constant rights negotiations with different bands, and I wonder if the Moodies, the label or representatives have ever been approached by the company (Ubisoft). I would die a happy man if I could ever master the guitar solos in "The Story in Your Eyes", "I'm Just a Singer", or, let's face it, any Moodies song. Thanks for your reply.
