    My personal opinion has ALWAYS been that Robert Cray is the most underappreciated guitar player of the last 25 years

    Great song to highlight both picking and fretting hand dynamics. Also a great choice to highlight a song with rhythm and lead/solo......not different from Hendrix's strongest attributes. Also, great job of showing the "flavor" of variations, noting that tension in the right hand will restrict he picking/strumming feel. Great video!!

    Now that was awesome Thom! Obviously, very complex and difficult to play. I know that you don't do much with Jazz guitar. However, you should look up Joe Pass and watch a few of his videos. One of my all time favorite guitarist! No one played like Joe! Hope that you & your family are doing well!

    I’m interested in how you hold your pick? I’m experimenting with different ways of holding it atm. Do you hold it differently depending on the technique? I think I can see you get quite a lot of motion from your thumb whilst strumming with a pick. Great video, thanks!

    I don't play percussion on the guitar. I don't mind hearing other people do it, like Michael Hedges doing finger tapping, and percussion.
    Or like this where people tap the beat muffled.
    But it doesn't interest me to do, I would just leave that part out. Or what I do is intricate it into finger picking.
    I can play like a metronome without that guidance.

    Can you play THIS riff? Anyway you could do the James Burton lead electric guitar intro, solo and fills from the Judy Collins version of Someday Soon as found on the studio album Who Knows Where the Time Goes? NOT the Buddy Emmons Steel parts ... a LOT of vids out there on that ... but NOBODY on YT has ever done the James Burton stuff. That is a shame because this tune REALLY helped to get Country Rock rolling back in the day.
