For sure! Like I told Bill, if you put in the time there, there's a whole world of sounds, ideas and riffs available in just those first three holes.

Good for you, Boyd - That's the right attitude!

Hi Bill - Thanks for the Louie Armstrong reference. He definitely represents the stylistic roots of what I was trying to go for in that verse. There's a whole world of that kind of...

Thanks Alan - I naturally seem to come up with simple-on-the-surface stuff that contains lots of small, character creating details. I'm glad you're diggin' it!

Hey Chris - I love the Tony Rice crosspicking fill thing. I really like the sound of it using the down down up. The alternate picking is nice, but it sounds like theres a slight...

Chris, I'm really getting a lot out of the theory discussion.  Playing the music while understanding why it works makes the whole thing really enjoyable!  Thanks!

Hi Rick, Just writing to agree with Boyd R. Keep the changelling material coming !! When I first heard this song this third chorus low end playing reminded me of the low end work...
Rick Bill blatner left a comment on: Blue Strollin' Third Chorus Breakdown
I love this whole song but I think this is my favorite verse. Sounds like Louie Armstrong, worrying those three hole bends.  It really helps when you slow it down to hear just how...

Duke, thanks. I appreciate the help. I'll definitely take your advice and rework the A7 line. .Larry

Ha! ;) I remember reading once, don't know if it was apocryphal or not, that some guy went up to Charlie Parker after a gig and handed him some notation paper filled with runs of...

Yes Stevie, BB did a great version of it also. For some reason everyone ignored the original melody. maybe thinking it was too old fashioned. Which is what I love about it! LOL...

Yes Paul, They are great and that particular style of blues and swing is all but lost nowadays. I try my best to help keep it alive. music has no expiration date.if its good it...

Sounds great Bruce. And yes! Absolutely thanks to Scott for figuring out what I do there. Lord knows I don't know! Duke

Wow Larry, That's great beautiful arrangement of the verse. That's a fabulous example of how to play it finger style! Now my only suggestion would be, on the intro where it double...

Sounds very pretty to me, Larry!

Chris, I guess I've lived under a rock my entire life because "With Body and Soul" is another wonderful song I've never heard. I doubt I'll be able to sing it well enough to post...
2018 thumb Bruce dumes left a comment on: I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water Introduction
Hey Duke! So, here's what I came up with. Such a pretty intro!

Funny how something so simple (Third chorus) is not at all intuitive. however it is coming along slowly...It's enhancing my appreciation/respect for those first 3 holes.  Sweet...

Hey Boyd - I'm glad you're diggin' it. Don't worry, I get so obsessed with detail, I'll probably never be able to come up with one that's too simple anyway 
2018 thumb Bruce dumes left a comment on: I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water Introduction
To Scott Sorkin aka Mr. Transcriber: I owe you a debt of thanks. I've been knocking my brain out trying to figure out how to play Duke's part over my track and I just could *not*...

I'm on my first chorus and having fun with it. It's just going to take a little time. I like to learn hard songs. If it's not hard why work on it. So thanks and continue hard songs...

I picked up a Cats and the Fiddle recording years ago back in the LP days. I've never lost my taste for them. Glad to see they are represented here.

He was lucky in that respect. I never had that!
