Here's the intro to "Key to the Highway" as I played it with Rick. You'll be using single notes, two hole chords, and bends - using your hands to get some nice wah- wahs as you let the notes rise to the natural pitch from the bend.

HI Daniel,
You're really close on this one and the smoothness and continuity are getting better. You're making good progress - it's sounding more expressive and musical than ever.
I am having both difficulty and fun with the John Lee Williamson style double stops.
My go at the Intro of "Key to the Highway".
I have a bad habit of not using Hand Wahs when I practice.
Here's two Clips one with & one without Hand Wahs

Intro Wtih Hand Wahs
thank you
Very helpful breakdown. I especially liked your tips on how to learn. Thanks Jerry. By the way, I am getting out to jams every week now - in large part because of the confidence these lessons have given me. Thanks for that too.
Hi Jerry. Thanks for this song and the lessons.
Could you briefly discuss the different structure for 12-bars and this tune (8-bar, right?)?
Thanks for all these lessons and the fine music.
