Hi Duke! Here's a first try at this. I'm still working on it, so it's slowed down a little bit  (86%). I wanted to see if I could get Lowell's unique timing, so I'm playing along...

Very nice Taylor!! Phrasing is great and really got a good handle on the groove there, which is key with this tune, especially with the way he (and you) play the shuffle rhythm...

Hi Taylor --- this issue was likely your "noise reduction" on the microphone input.  The first seconds of your original video were silent --- which triggered our "transcoding...

I tried two different browsers.  I'm able to record, then preview my video and hear sound but when I submit it here, I'm not hearing any sound from the video.

Hi Folks, This week we are starting on the opening guitar chorus. What we are going to learn is how to approximate Lowell's style and riffs. But it's also his attack, the unusual...

I'm working with this. I just want to get all of those Duke Robillard's chords under my fingers. This is the way to do it...! Thanx...! Duke...!

Hey Everyone! This week we will start the 4th chorus of my tribute to Big Walter Horton. I will go into something I refer to as a “lop-sided” triplet, including scoops and dips,...

That's awesome.   I really like the groove of that one.  I'm embedding the video below so people can see it (if you click on the red play button and insert the YouTube link it will...

Hi Duke -  This feels better to me. I feel like there's a kind of horse clip-clop clip-clop in the rhythm somehow. :-) What do you think? Thanks! Bruce

Thanks Paul! Yea, those recordings of Big Walter (with Robert Nighthawk) on that record certainly inspired this tribute to him. That is some of his best playing on there, although...

Dennis, great to have you back!  You've got a lot of BWH all packed in there...made me dig out my "Offer You Can't Refuse" disc.  Should be fun to work on.

Hi Duke As promised here is a comprehensive video. Lots of improvising.  I snuck in some Kenny Burrell and others - particularily over the call and response bass section. A...

Thanks, Duke. I'll keep at it!

Hi Steve, You should relax the tempo a bit but the second hit is more of an anticipated feel against the relaxed groove. Good start, try watching me do it again and listen for the...

Hi Bruce, You're very close. Just need to relax it a slight bit more. But very good start. Duke
2040 thumb Dennis gruenling left a comment on: Horton Shuffle Third Chorus Breakdown
Yea - two masters! Big Walter was a master and had so many sounds, textures, effects, and so much dimension to his playing - one of the best!

Hey Duke - I'm not sure if I'm in the right groove here or not. I feel like my time is a little wobbly, but maybe that's just the effect of being flat tired. :-) Thanks,Bruce

Hey Duke - This has been an amazing lesson for me. Your comment that I need to relax a little really struck me hard. You were absolutely right, of course! It's hard to change bad...
