Awesome! Boogie Woogie always sounds great on guitar, no matter if acoustic or electric. Almost a must in every guitarists repertoire.
Thank you Brian! I’ll check it out this afternoon. Hope you and your family are safe after the fierce storms passed through your area. Enjoy the holiday and best wishes for 2016~!!

Merry Christmas Brian to you and yours…..put your feet up and enjoy the day!.
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks for another great lesson
when i print out the Tab it reads EP131 instead of EP132,
But love the Lesson.
This has been fixed – it now reads 132 🙂 Good catch.
Brian,
Thanks for creating this lesson and on Christmas day even.
Most appreciated.
Merry Christmas
Hi Brian another great lesson you never fail to amaze!!Best Xmas Wishes to you and all your Family !!Barry
great lesson.. Anybody know what is happening with pause feature? Seems to be and intermittent issue on youtube as well. Surprised to see it not working inside the site as well. merry Xmas Happy Holidays too!
Not sure which pause you were referring to, on-screen tab viewer, video, or audio. Either way, I can’t replicate this which means it’s browser related. Try closing all browser tabs and restarting and see if that doesn’t solve the issue.
Yes it must be browser related .. I use Firefox .. I did check for plugin updates and what extensions/add-ons might be needed .. noticed this issue last few days I noticed no pause on the lower scrollbars on youtube .the video (clicking mouse to pause doesn’t appear at times and the play icon won’t pause/stop at times) ,, I will try as you mentioned .. seems to be an intermittent issue .. I’ll try finding out what it might be if it continues.
Gimmie that ole boogie woogie! Merry Christmas Brian and family! Loved that hammer-on to open A before the first A chord.
Recommended Active melody to a friend haven’t spoke to in a while , he asked me about guitar playing so I recommended Brian’s active melody site. Happy new year
Happy Christmas to and a prosperous New Year to all.
Brian thanks for all the great lessons and effort you have put in over 2015. I also had the pause issue in firefox but it seems to have cleared.
This lesson was a lot of fun! Great lesson for working on your timing, with some of those licks.
And thanks for taking the time around the holidays to get this lesson out,.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Years to you and your family!

Happy new year! Looking forward to more of your great online lessons in 2016 . Please include if possible some basic guitar jazz sessions. There are so many cool chord combinations and styles,,much of which seem so obscure but fascinating.
Thank you Brian you have improved my guitar playing 100% . I am now impressing friends that had impressed me for years. I can now do licks I thought I could never do. All since I started with Active Melody and your wonderful teaching style. You are the best Dale
