Here a recording about my work with Easy Blues. part one
I tried to play it at 80% but that was too fast. This recording has been played at 70% and I can now do that. Next is building up speed. My goal is to accelerate 2% per 2 days, we see if it is feasible.
The timing is right as the notes, The feeling is coming also. Try to combine the head with the heart 🙂
I learned one thing, do not try to speed up before you have the slow right and 100% control.

Sounds fabulous!
I would love to hear everyone's feedback on this solo. I tried to make it "easy" and at the same time, using all of the neck. It's a "practice solo" and I'm hoping there are some licks in there you might memorize for good and use in other solos.
Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced - these are labels I don't particularly love, because in the end, it's what sounds good that matters. A beginners solo can be a better solo than an advanced one (and vice versa)... it's the listener who decides. 🙂

I think the timing and tone are right on with this. Great job. It has kind of that cool smoky blues feeling which is cool... and smoky! I think you got the sound and feel of it down.
Well done!

Thats the way its done. Sneak up on it. Over and over again.
Good tone and timing.
I know this may sound weird but I tend to take note of my breath. Breathing in at the beginning of a riff seems to help concentration and focus.
Anyone else experience this?

I also do a short time of relaxation before I start practice, breathing and soft classical music to prepare my brain. Then I do some warm up with scales, then I start slow and increase speed to the point I left last lesson. Then I build up more speed 2 - 3% percent till I got it.
Always take notes off the times I get it perfect and the times I get it wrong. If I get it to many times wrong I stop, do some relaxation and start over but slower.
It is, I think, very important that You show the brain the right may and not the wrong one!
