Alright Stevie Boy!! You really got the sound, riffs and groove happening! Really, That was very good and it makes me feel great that these lessons are paying off for people. Good...

Hello Friends, This week we finish up "Three Hours Past Midnight" with some additional solo ideas to add to your arsenal. Then I teach a cool riff double stop chorus that can be...

Love that turnaround riff Corey !!!  That's one of the coolest lick I've hear in a long time!

Here's are a couple of first position patterns, parts of which are used in "Hoochie Coochie Man" and are valuable as basic ways of playing at the low end of the harp in first...

Corey - you are "The Bomb " man! I'm like a kid in a candy store - all those sweet little riffs ! I love you man ! keep on rocking in the free world!

I can predictably bend some of the draw notes from a TB position, and I can see the value of it with certain phrasings. I do, however, enjoy draw bending in the pursed lips...

Nice to be able to jam along. 

I'm with you Jerry! At first I was frustrated and wanted more visual aid. But now that I've been with it a while, I can (usually) pick out what you're playing quickly and am able...

Nice live version. That's me on harp. It's in the key of "G" on a "G" harp.

Thanks for the information Jerry  - I bought the I'm Ready album on Iturnes - lots of great tunes in addition to the version of Hootchie Cootchie Man.  I also got the original...

Hi Rich The album with me and Big Walter playing together on "Hoochie Coochie Man" is I'm Ready. Many classics like this have been recorded several times, even by the original...

Hi Duke I'm just writing to say thank you for the treasure trove of licks and phrases you open with each lesson and for all the vast knowledge you are sharing. Having just...

Hi Heinrich Welcome to Sonic Junction!  We have recently updated the video player with some new features and unfortunately created a bug:  you can no longer click on the progress...

great lesson , but i'm not fast enough to catch it and i can't back up the video. i have to start from the begining of the lesson again. if i were to purchase your subscription...

Jerry That was fun to listen to -  your harp, of course, but Rick's guitar and singing, too. A couple of questions - first on which album is the version with you and Big Walter?...

The vocal sound "dunlop" is a very good exercise.  It helps to identify where the isolated individual notes are in the tune.  Overall it helps to improve a finger-picking guitar...

Thanks, Mike and Peter. Not a problem, all part of me learnin' too. The information comes from the Yazoo records liner notes. They are very informative and educational. Thank You...

Yes Duke please cruise through California! The Bay Area would LOVE it!

That made my Friday!  I'm going to be humming Hoochie Coochie Man in my sleep. Can't wait toget working on it...

@Corey .. thanks!  Yes, the accent on the 1 feedback is exactly what I needed.  The tune flows much better for me now.  I'm also letting up on the muting and like it.  Thanks...

okay here's mine.  sorry about the singing, but I didn't think i could play four choruses!  Plus it's a great style for fills.  I've been singing this as my go to slow blues song...

Wow!  Played with conviction and precision!  I loved it.  I found it particularly instructive that Jerry plays this acoustically.  I  could watch his hands, his cheeks, his...

This week folks we add some more funky technics to what we have already done. We work on bending whole tones up and down in an even rhythm that gives a springy effect that is...

@Corey I've just recorded it...I try to sing

Another classic: one of the most famous songs in Chicago Blues - Hoochie Coochie Man. Originally performed by Muddy Waters with Little Walter on harp. "A" harp in key of "A".

Duke...   It's a small world. What you described about hearring Chuck Berry's "Wee Wee Hours" for the first time as a kid is an exact match of my own experiance. You said exactly...

@Corey...no worries! I know that you're very busy with the new album and other even more important things...first time I saw it, as I told you before, I though that it was easy but...

Thank you Jerry, for your invaluable wisdom and information.
