Hi Folks, This week we are learning the melody to Shivers. It a very simple, swinging melody that's fun and pretty easy to play. I also teach the harmony to the head which is fun to play. I also demonstrate how to comp on the bridge while another instrument takes the bridge on the head. Next week we start working on the solo.
Enjoy, Duke

Nice Duke . Thanks .
Hi Charlie, Thank you VERY much for your kind words. I'm happy that my lessons are opening up some doors for you! Duke
Thanks Duke - for this and all the tunes. You've pushed fast forward on my playing and opened the door for me on songs I was too much in awe of to ever even think of attempting. This site is the best thing online!!! Keep 'em coming
