@ Jerry,
I hear the timing issue at the times you stated, thanks for bringing that to my attention.
I'll also focus on catching some of the adjacent hole too.
Thanks, your feedback is very helpful!
Really good effort with just a couple of caveats: You're off time around 1:30 and again between 1:54 and 2 minutes on the time code. Also, though you're playing the correct notes very nicely and right on pitch, they're all played clean and pure. Try dirtying them up some by picking up a piece of the adjacent hole to the right of the hole you're playing. It will sound grittier and bluesier. You're really doing great though and, as a teacher, it's very gratifying to hear!
After much tabbing and splicing, here's my effort at Jerry & Ricks example of "Key to the Highway".
Thanks again for showing both your hands Rick.
My buddy who plays guitar has starting doing some of these songs with me!
He's not a heavy blues guitarist so it's very helpful when he can see what your hands are doing.
Thanks again King!
