Yes! Loved the section on inflections, the amount of nuisance possible with the slide is tremendous. I've personally been taking notes from the style of Pat Metheny as I've found that the inflection he uses in his guitar playing translates super well onto trombone.
Hey Alan, It sounds like I was using a variety of articulation when I recorded this, but I'm not sure that I was doing so intentionally. I tend to use a legato single tongue for most lines, but it sounds like I was articulating the first example a little more in this case. For the most part, those types of choices are influenced by my listening habits more than by a conscious choice when I am improvising.

Very useful indeed, thanks! I'm applying those ideas to bass solos at the moment; it will be a long time before I could do the same on a trombone.
at last! I've found the blues trombone content I was looking for! well done Shawn. And I've been looking for quite a while.
You gave us great content, with very clear examples.. thanks.. I don't speak English... I'm using the translator... sorry, again, thank you

I agree with esotericist. This is the best blues learning video I have seen and I've looked at a lot of them. It opens up the gates! Thanks.
Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad to hear that the concepts are helping you in your practice!
Great explanation, clear audio, nice playing. Well done!
Shawn, you are the best teacher!!
Brah, you're so f@kin' groovy! ❤
These videos have been really helpful thanks man
I really like your videos, so much learning

At minute four and forty the example with sheet music, does the articulation change to the second figure? Thanks
at minute four and thirty-seven... sorry.... on the descending scale... thank you
