Hello Friends,
This week we are working on the final lesson for Early in the Morning. I continue this week with more ideas and demonstrations for lines in the Buddy Guy style. Obviously if you are playing with a harp player you would leave more space and compliment the harp but if you use this arrangement as a guitar feature it does work well also. So I try to give you as many ideas as possible to use as if it were a guitar feature a la Buddy Guy. So let's see some videos and hear your take on it.
Enjoy!
Duke

Yeah Bruce, He may be an alien who landed in Louisiana!
Happy Birthday, Buddy Guy!!
Hey Duke! Wow, trying to play like Buddy is like learning to speak Martian! He builds his own universe there for a few seconds, then *bang!* and you're back in Chicago. "In the middle of the floor" -- I was never able to understand that lyric until you sang it! I found that Buddy's guitar mostly appears in the right channel on the original record, so I made a version from just the left channel where you can really only hear a ghost of Buddy's original track and it makes a great backing track. I just love the way the Fred Below rolls into the IV chord during the 1st harp solo. I had a lot of fun working on this one. Looking forward to hearing what you think! Best, Bruce
Good job copping Buddy's licks! Now lets see you post to my track playing your own lick in Buddy's style!
