T-Bone Walker Slow Blues > Rhythm Variations

Hello Folks,

This week we are continuing on with variations of way to play the chords on T-Bone's "I'm Still In Love With You." Being that it's a ballad and has a bit different progression feel it's really important to have the progression in you head and know how to make a few variations of it. It's of course important you understand the progression before trying to solo on it. Next week we start working on the solo.

Enjoy!

Duke

Hi Duke, I'm studing now with Corey, you'll be the next step and the next teacher.

Just take your opinion on the Guttlin guitars you are using in this lesson.

Have a good work and thanks in advance.

Hey Duke! After I recorded my backing track for I'm Still In Love With You, I was feeling pretty good so I decided to throw in a "bonus track". It's a review of "Flying Home";  I've struggled for years to get the phrasing both relaxed and "swingy" enough. 

So on the video, I start with the backing track for T-Bone, and then cut to my overdub of vocal and lead, and then back to the backing track take where I do Flying Home. I sure love this T-Bone song, and never really gave it enough of a listen before. I'm surprised at my own singing -- I'm not sure where all those voices came from, but I sure have fun singing it. 

Hope you enjoy it, Duke! I would be very grateful for any feedback! 

Best,

Bruce

Sounds great Bruce. My only comment is when you go to the every thing you say part you should be right on the F chord to the Bb quicker on the vocal a bit. Sounds good though. Duke
