A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers (Medley) - 2005 Digital Remaster by Van Der Graaf Generator is played in the key of C. Originally recorded in the sounding key of C, 'A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers (Medley) - 2005 Digital Remaster' by Van Der Graaf Generator is best approached with a Capo placed on Fret 5, enabling guitarists to execute friendly G shapes while fully preserving the studio pitch. Replace full barre B major and B minor with ergonomic open B7 (x21202) and Bm7 (x20202) voicings, offering significantly lighter fretting resistance for developing fingers. Moving smoothly between Am and Bm demands finger discipline: lead with your ring finger toward the target fret as an anchor before locking down the remaining fingers firmly on the strings. Set your metronome at an initial practice tempo of 66 BPM in 4/4 time to master the '↓ - ↓ ↑ - ↑ ↓ ↑' strumming groove, emphasizing steady downstrokes on beats one and three before accelerating toward the studio speed of 92 BPM.
