This week we will focus on breaking down the bass and the ending so that you can clearly see what is going on. We will also cover walking up to the chords in the song to give it more spice and flavor. Take your time and I do hope you enjoy it. I look forward to seeing ones post examples of what they have learned.
Thank you.

Good...keep it up.
Download finally worked properly, I need a new computer
Nice work Harry. I can see that you have a good handle on the licks. I see that you are tapping your foot and that is good but I don't get a sense that you know where the 'one' / downbeat is yet, as I see you stomping your foot on the upbeat intermittently. Try finding the donwbeat by listening to the track again. It is right where I say 'Frankie' in the first vocal line of the song, or whenever the low bass note is picked out. This will give the song a little more swing. Try it and see how it goes. Thanks for posting. Honor.
I see what you mean about the foot! I was not even aware. Looks like my foot is getting confused with my fingers instead of with my thumb. Think I will break out my wood thing so i CAN HEAR MY FOOT TAP with the bass strings
THANK YOU
