This sounds great and will be fun to learn.
This looks fun! Curious what brand your microphone is?
I’m loving this one and I can’t wait to get this one under my fingers! Thanks Brian
Hi First let me say the I have learned 10X from you what I have learned from anyone else. But all of your Jerry/Dead stuff is just a tad out of my reach. I really really wish you would make a few lessons that would act as a bridge for me to be able to access this.
Hi Brian, great lesson. I would think most of us here play alone or with another one or two friends occasionally. Some may be in a band, but not most of us. This style of music and lesson is exactly what we need to work on to keep our jams sounding good, and keep us motivated. I would always welcome more.
This is too fun. Thanks Brian. Love this site and your teaching. Awesome!
I also love Jerry and have seen him many times in all iterations of his ensembles ( including The New Riders of the Purple Sage ). Always up for this style of lesson. Can’t get enough!
Brian
Great lesson. Wonderful tune that puts a smile on your face. Can’t wait to learn this one and try to incororate some of the licks into other tunes.
Love this lesson, going to be fun to learn
Brian for the last several lessons I’ve had trouble part one, up until tonight I’ve been able to get part one on utube. Tonight I can’t get sound on utube or active melody.
All the rest of the lesson comes in fine.
Any suggestions?
I really enjoy how smoothly you connect one chord to another using the caged style. I am getting better at this, just slow. The way you mix up the rhythm makes it all a lot of fun. You sure manage to get a lot out of 3 chords using the caged system. It almost sounds like a small orchestra rather than one instrument. A very complete sound. I am learning a lot from all these lessons and have been for several years now. Thanks
…like the old dawg gone astray… Such a wonderful, restrained and beautiful piece of music making.
