Yeah, I love his sound on the tune. His playing is a little overlooked on it because there's no clear solo but he fills in the space between Bob's voice so well.
Thank you for your honesty about the speed being difficult for you. It's easy to imagine that every guitar player I look up to can play anything they want at an unreachable level. You sharing this makes me feel more hopeful about my own abilities. Thanks Jeff!
No problem Morgan! Often I'm too hard on myself and need to ease up and except where I'm at, but at the same time, I'm constantly motivated to get better. I wish there were more hours in the day. But yeah, if you keep at it you'll absolutely be able to play things you currently can't and maybe think you won't be able to.
It's such an underrated Jerry tune, people write it off as another Bobby cowboy tune (which it is ofc :D ) but Jerry's playing is nuts. I love the Cornell version, just wish he was mixed a little higher [EDIT: Actually maybe the drums are mixed a bit too high]. There's so much in there! Also, regarding practicing this, set your looper up with a nice slow version of the chords of the section you want to work on and work with it like that. Run the scales, arpeggios, the melody, everything. Speed comes with familiarity and slow practice. The only people that go full speed their first time are teenage car thieves who often crash :P
Jeff! Love your stuff, bro! I play to your backing tracks all the time on my streams. I also teach dead tunes. Check some of my lessons out sometime. It'd be cool to collaborate on something. Cheers, fam.

This is great I can’t wait to sit down with this one. I’ve always been interested in this topic for El Paso
It's such a fun tune. I gotta get going with Mexicali Blues soon too.
Great vid man it

I’ve been wanting to hit this one for awhile but it seemed so intimidating
More to come! And just take it one note at a time.

I sound just Like Jerry !😁 Jerry in an alternate universe in which he's far less musical and much more handsome 😆
Haha!
Thank you for clarifying the 9/8! It’s a tad hard to hear that passage in your backing track, to my ears. Sweet track, tho, I love it 👍🏼
Glad that was helpful Tim!
Hey there. Request: Standing on the Moon backing track! :)
