Would you consider teaching us the classic minor blues tune 'Idle Moments' by Grant Green?  It's one of the finest jazz blues I've ever heard.  The only thing I've found available...

+1 on the Stumble.  I would love to learn that tune ... and I think it's within reach for me.   Gatemouth and PeeWee would be fun too.  So much to learn!  Great suggestions Alan.

@Corey...thanks for the feedbak in this and the others lessons :) About the guitar...I've tried many different strings in this last period with different gauges too and I think...

Really appreciate the Chicago Blues !  This is great stuff.  This should be Music 101 for everyone that ever picked up a guitar. 

I would be good with Freddie King.  That's my coffee before I get to Starbucks !

@ Correy ,hope this finds you well Thank you, I will try working on the variations more it dose sound repetitive, my timeing has always been a problem as soon as I press record or...

@ Mike...yes I think Henry Butler is one of the musical giants of our time.  He has the best rhythm of anyone I have worked with, like a rock.  And he is also a photographer!

@ Mike...wow you have a very nice tone on this tune and the tempo and rhythm is right on.  I would only say put a little more power in your thumb brush and that will bring the nice...

@Alex...nice tone as always.  I would only say that when you are playing pay attention to ringing strings.  You don't want them ringing out too much because that takes away from...

@Dave ja voo...sounds like you got a good foundation.  I would say now to slow it down a little bit and listen for the little variations now.  Its a real simple tune and it can...

@Alex...I would suggest that you use the one of the fingers behind the slide to lightly rest on the strings and this will also dampen sounds when you life the slide off the string...

@Big White yes you are right I am brushing the strings with my thumb while playing the solo section and what I am doing with my left hand is dampening/choking the strings (also...

Hi Corey Thanks to share. Your lesson is very clear. I had some hard time to damp the bass, I wasn't sure about it. What do you think? I have the feeling that the sound of the...
