Hi Jerry, I am really learning some great things here. You are a very good teacher and the Harp Master I am wondering how you get the wah wah with your hand when using a green...

Thanks Duke. I've purchased the album and been listening to Alligator Boogaloo on my ipod to work. Great song. It's great to hear these references from you, really helps :)  I'll...

Hi - here is my attempt at Mean Old World.  In this case I am playing along with Snooks Eaglin's version which is in E. I'm playing my new Hohner Crossover (which I really like) in...

Hey Duke, it would be nice to have the backing track with a count in, instead of starting right on it.  Its hard to record the video with the backing track starting so quick.  I...

Hello Corey, here's my attemp after one hour of takes. I give you a slow version because i know i usually play too fast. I know John Jackson version is quite quick on "don't let...

Duke, Exactly !  Wes Montgomery style octaves ---can be useful as you know in the blues for variation Mark

Hi Markod, Do mean Wes Montgomery style octaves? Duke

Peter, Looking forward tgo it. Duke

Hi Eric, Good job on the rhythm for Cookin'. You've got the proper feel down! Duke 

duke - how do you work the interactive part of the lessons, don't know if i posted it in the right place??  i (Eric Beil) put a post on Jan 20 related to your tune "cookin"  would...

 

Thanks Duke for the feedback !  I love these lesssons ! Any chance you could demonstrate some octave work on a future tune ?

As to Damian's guitar, from his description I would say it is definitely a pre-war guitar.  It could have been made by any of a handful of manufacturers around Chicago or in...

Value to a player and price are not the same thing.  Pre-war even pre-50's Stellas, Kays, Kalamazoos, Regals, Harmony's, were mass produced and economical for consumers to buy, but...

Hi Peter, Good I hoped that slowing it down to demonstrate it would help. I am not a tab guy. That's Mike's job! Duke

Daddyray, yup, that is what they call the "Hendrix" chord alright! Duke

Hi Roger, Good job, you are getting the feel and picking up the solo ideas very well! Keep it up! Duke 

Hi Markod, Great playing and good fluid facility on the fretboard! I like your use of pulloffs and slurs etc. Your'e doing a very good job of absorbing the lessons and grabbing...

Hi Tony D, I find that playiung that style on a flat top very challanging, estecially with heavier strings and a would G. You seem to get more in the groove after a few choruses...

Thank you Jerry.... I try to do my best and I hope someday to be able to play all the blues that I like on my harmonica. You are definately helping me alot to get there and I...

Hey Duke, here's my poor attempt at it.. I usually play electric with a pick but for this one I really couldn't get the pick to work and liked the sound from my fingers better. The...

Here is my video of High Heeled Sneakers Mark MargoliesThe octaves part needs work

Duke, still working on improving my timing by tapping my foot. Let me know what you think. Thank for all the great lessons

Hi Corey ... again, love this tune!  I was just playing it with the sun coming through the window this AM.  What a beautiful experience.  I'm now working on the middle section and...

Hi Rich, Glad you like it. Intro, fills, and solo coming up.

Great song!  I love playing it.  Now maybe I'll learn to play it right.  Thanks Jerry and Rick.

Hey LTH Great job again on Big Boss Man. Besides playing the elements very close to the original and the way I showed them, I especially liked the way you "chopped" that little...

Great Performance and a Great Song to learn....  Jerry I Recorded Big Boss Man your earlier lesson... its in the General Section of the Forum I hope you have a look and let me know...

Hey Corey, I was just wondering what model parlor guitar you are playing.

Hi Frank, That a funny story, except for the part about the kids with the flu! Looking forward to seeing your video posted. Duke
