Hi again, Duke! I didn't expect to be responding again so soon, but I think I'm getting much closer. I don't hear this as 100% spot-on, but overall I'm much happier with the solo...

Thanks, Duke! I will do my very best! ;-)

You are doing very well Bruce and your realizations are a good sign. keep up the good work! Duke  

Like I've said before, I always end up learning so much from doing these videos. I've watched this a bunch of times. I woke up early this morning and had a realization about what's...

Enjoying the White Dove Lessons Chris. Is there a certain order after this that should be followed?   I made up a few new lyrics it seems. I'm working on staying relaxed, it's...

Thanks a lot, Duke. That means a whole lot to me. It's worth 50 years of working at music to hear that from one of my heroes! I know..."Play it...don't say it."  ;-)  Thanks again...

Yeah Man! Great performance. You are really getting the vibe happening and I am enjoying seeing it. Keep up the good work! Duke

Hey James, For some reason I am only able to see your video on my iPhone (not my computer) so sorry for the slow response time! First of all, very nicely done! You've really...

Kip, great job!!! You've got me smiling and tapping my foot over here! 2 things: 1) You've added 2 extra beats after your second time through the form (at 0:31) 2) Try hammering...

Hi Jim, welcome! There is a rough progression of information from the beginning through the most recent lessons where the newer lessons are building on things we've already talked...

Oh yeah I love that rhythm makes u want a grab a few beers and shake that booty.  The lady's will be all over me with this one. Now where is my a harp.

Real cool solo ... hours of fun and days or weeks of pickin' practice ahead for me to get to a point where the fingers remember their way without having to think about it too much...

Hi Chris, New to the class and was wondering if there was an order to older lessons or any order is okay. Thanks Jim

Davell: This is great stuff. Keep it coming. Being a raw beginner, I'm still working over "Red Dress" - got the left hand working strong - got the right hand coming up to speed....

Hey Duke! When I heard the backing track, the first thing I thought of was the great tune "The Outskirts of Town", which fits great over it and it was one I already knew, so sorry...

thanks. Love this playing with trill's.    

Who says the trill is gone?

Wow, thanks a lot, Duke! I'm having a lot of fun with the great backing track. I have been singing the lyrics for "I'm Gonna Move To The Outskirts Of Town" with it instead of "Use...

thanks. Love this playing with trill's.    

Thank you the 2 DC Federal set recommendation, Bruce. Received it earlier this week--just as you said--killer.    Tom

In this lesson we will focus on variations of the original blues tune, "Baby Please Be True", played in the key of B-flat. Last week we studied the right-hand accompaniment pattern...
