Hi,
No, when I mean memorize the song I mean the guitar. When I listen to songs I mostly focus on the instrumentation. I know I'm not the only one who can "sing" a great many guitar solos. So knowing the flow of the music from start to finish helps me have, at least, a basic understanding of what I'm about to learn should sound like.

Ah ok, thanks Poundhound.
So if a chord progression is say DAGADG, what you would have memorised are
the sounds made by those chords , not the letters "D" "A" ..."G" ?
Thanks in advance ,. Mike.
