Nice work! Sounds great! 10/10!

You can post here. I think that makes good sense since it's part of your practice.

Hey Sebastian, that is really good!

Really, really good! A few mistakes but VERY minor. Not worth mentioning. What IS worth mentioning however, is that you played with great feeling, good timing & execution, and you played like you really knew what to do. That is impressive. It's a 9.5/10! Wait, I'll give you one of these too: !

It's clear that you have been practicing - YAY! 

*See guys, this is what happens when you practice well - it sounds great!*

Thanks Robert! I know there are a few mistakes, but that’s the best I can do for now... 

Also, thanks for the star! I feel like I’m back to elementary school again! It makes myself feels a little bit youger! Lol!

But, yes you are right practicing is worth it. It takes time but it pays off. I have had  Low Income Blues tune playing in a loop in my head for the past weeks now! Does it always do that?

For the next one, I think I’m gonna try slow 60 blues, will see what I can do with it!

Thanks all,

Sebastien

Listening over and over - you got it! That's how it's done. Repetition, application. Repeat until it sticks...

That's the way you do it!  Nice feel for the blues, Sebastian.  Seems like you became really comfortable as the recording progressed.   Keep it up and THANKS for SHARING.

Oh, and do not worry about posting mistakes.  The real mistake is not recording and posting!

It's been a while.... But hey, never too late!

Here's a quicky from a 2 minutes lesson, classic rock riff.

Hope it's not to bad!

Yeah, I like it! It has a bit of a Keith Richards feel to it I think! Great job.

2019-03-27 - Horizontal pentatonic sliding and "soloing"

Ok. Please excuse this one. Pretty ugly, but I just started "soloing" if I can say so...

Very crude, I had about 15 minutes to record it and post it here, so you'll have to take as it is!

Thanks all!

Hey that sounds great! Don't worry about perfection. You are learning where the notes are with confidence. Mistakes happen to all of us.

I really like that you were using those shapes to improvise on your own. Good on you!

What I want everyone to do with these short lessons, is to take the concept (whatever it happens to be) and use it over different jam tracks. You really learn something when you internalize it, and in order to do that, you must apply this concept (exercise or lick, etc) to many different situations. Use the idea(s) over different styles of backing tracks, in different keys and tempos. Eventually, the idea will stick!
