Thanks for sharing this, Kip!

As I've been working on this Tony Rice arrangement, for some reason just yesterday I started thinking about how lousy it would feel not to have Tony in this world any longer...

That's great! Learning Juke is a whole education by itself! There's tons of great, important stuff in Juke. That alone can keep you busy for years!

I have a lot of patience  When it's hard then it's fun to learn I'm having a lot of fun with it. I'm still working on Juke  I come back to sometimes now that's a lot of patience 

Believe it or not, I know the feeling, Boyd. The main thing is to be patient with yourself. Some techniques take a little more time to master, but if you stick with it, and keep...

I'll try and find out what that bass is - It's some type of ukelele bass. It's got surprisingly good tone, but then again, Ronnie's playing it, so I'm sure that's got a lot to do...

That's so cool! Really glad to hear it!

Getting a lot out of this each time I come to the lesson I get more out of it.

Just when you thought you had made

Thanks Boyd! I'm real glad you like it! Also, Sad Hours is beautiful - There's a lot of great things you can pick up from Sad Hours!

This tune is really amazing and the  more you get into it not so easy that's what I like about it. I'm working on this tune. And trying to pick out Little Walter's  Sad Hours...

Hi Bruce, I like your more contempory blues take on this. (Someone to love) thanks for posting! Duke

Hey Marty, Great job! You certainly are Cookin'! Congratulations, you now can play that tune faster than I can. Duke

Thanks George! I'm real glad you're enjoying it! I cover a lot of little, idiomatic details that seem important to me, and it's always gratifying whenever somebody else appreciates...

You're so right that this tune is loaded with musical ideas. I love this lesson. It's definitely changing and deepening my playing. Tongue blocking the 1 blow and draw (which i...

Hi Duke,

I think that word is perfect. It relates to your idea that the playing should be conversational and make sense.  If you took the conjunctions out of a sentence it wouldn't make...

YES - thank you for brining to my attention! I appreciate you telling me, because I never write out my songs until AFTER I improvise them. I have a framework and an indea of what I...

It seems to me that you play two different versions of the last part (from the 4. cord) of verse 7, Dennis. The version you play in the introduction of the series, and in the...

That is a great quote!! I have to remember that one, thank you!!  When you are swinging, swing more!!  :-)  Perfect!!
