Nice playing above Zen, a most relaxing 7 minutes spent.

Now, how about posting a bit of BB King, or have you different thoughts about his level of technique following our recent discussion?



Just bug off, your really quite annoying man.

Better to leave it up I reckon .. then you have a "p1ssed up" benchmark to refer back to. It's not half bad for one of them :-).

Very good Paul. I've been teaching it that way for 30 years, and you nailed the important part, which is to use the divot of the knuckle as a fulcrum for the hand to pivot upon.

Well done.

Sorry folks. I am not familiar with the format. I was reading a post on the first page, and replied, but now, it seems to have come out of nowhere.

I am new here.

Well, I got a bit of paper, and paused the vid every time I heard something I didn't like and jotted it down - found this a really useful exercise actually. I have a lot of motivation right now to step up a gear with my own playing (Swanner, think John Cleese - DON'T MENTION THE TEST!) and making videos seems to be very useful.
Would love to achieve a higher level of consistency, but at the same time it's hard to balance an acceptance of your 'warts and all' level of playing with a desire to improve without being too idealistic or dissing your current level of playing. Goijg to continue making these videos though as I seem to be learning a lot in the process...
