Hi Rick! Great lesson, thanks very much. What would you call this groove? It's not a shuffle, is it? Cheers

I  would also LOVE if you could teach us "Streets of London".  Manzanita and Church Street Blues are such GREAT albums!

I can identify. It's elusive. If you work on it daily, it will come - After that, it's good to continue working on it. There're days when my tongue feels pretty sluggish.
Rick Bill blatner left a comment on: Lightnin' 6th Verse Breakdown

I probably told you this before, but some people can just naturally do that flutter, and some can't - I was a person who couldn't, and had to work on it a lot. I believe Kim was...

Hey Rick.  A while back I was bemoaning my inability to get the side to side tongue flutter and was feeling resigned to never getting it.  You encouraged me not to give up.  Well,...

Hi Bill, you're correct - many notes are not only notes. In my mind, a more accurate description might be syllables - though even that isn't a perfect description. But yeah, when...
