Duke,

What sort of rhythm guitar patterns would you play that complement Brad's lines?

Thanks in advance,

Mario

Thanks Duke.  

Could you, in a future lesson, explain the difference between Open E Blues Chicago and Texas style?  Would you say that Tell Me Why from your Cd Duke's Blues is an example of Chicago blues?

Excellent, this is very good!  I look forward to the next lesson.

A question for Brad: why didn't you start from the open low E and A?  Personal choice or stylistic feature?

Thanks for the reply, Duke.  What's your preference regarding the bass player's line when you are playing a Jimmy Reed style groove like the one on this example? It would be great to have a lesson with your bass player!

Hi Duke, great stuff!  

Regarding the bassline at the beginning of the lesson, what approach do you like a bass player to follow so it complements what you do?  Do you like it when they double the line?  How much of that is talked in advance and how much of it is spontaneous? 

Thanks,

Mario

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the backing track!

Duke,

You always sound fine!

Hi Duke,

Your lessons are great!

Any chance of posting the backing track at the original tempo?

Thanks so much.

Regards,

Mario
