This week we will focus on a shuffle lick variation to play in the song. We will look at ways to play a simple solo and discuss variations to the turnaround. Pay attention to your tempo and rhythm as you continue to learn the song.
Most of all, have FUN. Thanks.

Hi Corey, here is my attempt at this. As you can see I've been trying out different songs to highlight different issues in my playing. Not sure if I am getting the different dimensions that you talk about (digging in too much, brushing etc) but I thought I'd give them a try before things get busy for me again and I won't be able to post so often. Sorry for all the posts. Thanks!
Greetings Doc. I think you are doing a great job on the guitar here. I will listen again, but it feels like you are hitting the mark! Guitar sounds good too.... Nice one. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your encouragement Corey. I am loving your arrangements of these classics. Thanks so much for teaching us!
