    Very nice. I recognize the first part of this lick : the melody to Willie Brown's Mississippi Blues. I never thought to use my memorized acoustic tunes in an improvised electric setting. Something for me to work on. BTW: Attended Sue's great concert in San Angelo, TX in Nov 2024! Some of her playing is fresh on my mind.

  • @madadam81
    @madadam81 2 месяца назад

    Blues, more so than any other genre is about feel more than rules - and this mindset around patterns helps so much about ignoring the rules that can make playing sound too scaley and build your own patterns.
    And this isn't just great for blues guitar, but any musical style and any instrument and build your own playing styles, rhythms and riffs that show your own musical personality.
    But you need to have the knowledge, skills and techniques that come with learning all the rules so you can instead build your own rules and patterns.
    Beethoven's 5th with the da da da daaaas are a great example of patterns in music and when the listener starts to recognise your patterns and be surprised by changes to the pattern they didn't predict is something studies have shown that listeners really positively respond to
    That's why this video is so good for budding musicians and songwriters

  • @jms8250

    Great lesson. I’ve heard RUclipsrs claim SRV started this lick but Sue Foley gives an interesting pedigree of this lick going back to muddy waters band and expanded on by Johnny Winter. As far as I know T Bone Walker first used those intervals in combining major and minor pentatonic patterns that feel different but it’s basically the same pattern. Her approach of laying it out in chord patterns actually gives some insight into how players derived these licks and moved the blues forward. If anybody did this earlier than T Bone I would like to know. Sue has always been a forward moving blues guitarist with authentic pedigree going back to the masters.
