Blues Solo With Me - Blues In A

- In this video you'll get a chance to play along with me... this is something most people just don't do enough of (myself included.)
it's great to work on your blues scales, licks, patterns, and other "book" stuff, but sometimes you need to also work on your ear, time, and your ability to repeat something back that you've heard.
Enjoy!
For those of you that asked about a "course" along these lines, I do have something I've created called "Trading Fours - Volume 1" that might be of interest. You can find it at bluesguitarunleashed.com/get-trading-fours-1/
Instant subscription. The cure for mental blockages!🤘🤘✊
One of the best lessons I’ve come across.
Well done, and great idea giving room for the student to “play in.”
You're the only instructor on RUclips who provides what's vital--not how to play/improvise, but what to play. Thank you! I'd like to see more like this (A minor pentatonic stuff), even more complex.
What a great lesson Griff. Some superbconcepts all brought together in one 10 minute lesson. Love it...
This is great for improving the ear! Awesome.
Gotta start somewhere !!!! Great stuff. I enjoy your lessons !!
This is fantastic, thank you!! It's the "Trading 2s" lesson I was looking for ;)
What a great lesson and challenge for us intermediate players to sharpen our musical ear,, learn riffs on the fly, identify melodic themes and rhythm and play along in a jam. One of the few opportunities to do so. What a relief, not a follow the bouncing ball lesson...
I felt that I had to comment on this video but looking at previous comments, everything’s already been said. This is exactly what what I’ve been looking looking for although I I hadn’t realised. It seems so obvious now, sharing licks and ideas is the natural way to learn. Forty minutes wouldn’t be to long. I suppose we have all tried this while listening to recordings but the “room “ to repeat is vital. I’ll have to try to work out the backing track, at least I know what key it’s in. Thanks so much for posting more of the same would be very welcome, thanks..
Follow the leader type lesson. Very clear, digestible and comprehensive. I'm learning a lot. Your website listing would be great. Thank you.
This is one of the best exercises that I have come across. Really, really good stuff and a lot of fun too. Thank you.
Hey guy I was recommended by your video, thanks for your insight to these kids 👍
Great video!
Great blues 🙏🙏👍
I keep coming back to this
This was great stuff! Found I got 80% of them the first pass. The other 20 % I got by the third attempt.
Thanks blues man!
Thanks for the great content...this is so much better than most other videos out there
I have recently discovered your channel and it is a very nice experience. You are a wonderfully talented musician and teacher. Thank you!
Thanks Griff. Good stuff!!
I love this concept. I would buy a course of this type of content ( as long as there was a rhythm mimic/play section for each groove)
Love the concept have put you watch later. Gonna do this tomorrow when the guitar is out
Great lesson, thanks.
SWEET! And very helpful. Thank You!
Fantastic lessons.
That was fun! I have to admit that after the first few licks it was more like trading 4's for me. Which was fun! I mixed in a little mixolydian after a while (it was right there) and started moving more....
Great lesson!
6:16 jam starts here
Great video, and it was fun...
awesome lesson!
Went great ...so beautiful..cried..been stuck on how to progress
Great exercise...for me, anyway! Thanks!
Starts at 6:23
Great ...i will do it for weeks...just what I need it..
the top box is actually part of the major scale
thanks Griff
complimenti, bravissimo insegnante
I really liked this format, although I don't know how you managed to restrain yourself after getting started on some of those licks. Thanks!
That’s great!
Great exercise
This is awesome. Would you consider making a similar one with even more simple phrases to build up to this? Thanks again!
cool !!!
Pretty sweet licks there griff.. sadly I’m not proficient enough to play along yet 🤨😒
Thanks griff
griff is good...a bit talky but this makes sense and sounds right...has that jimmie vaughan vibe
Gracias
Subscribed after it.
It's the top half of the 2nd pattern in B...
S'more of this in all keys please!
Just move it up or down the fretboard for different keys.
i wonder where i can find this back track to use it with this vid without al the talks
Can you please make the Backing Track available for free also? This is a great exercise.
When he was playing... that was the backing track. If you want a downloadable backing track... download RealPlayer (it is FREE, the 'paid' upgrade ain't worth it). I just mouse over a video, and a 'download this video' box appears above it (on 10, it's a little tab center top). Click it, and the video is downloaded to my hard drive. This guy is sooooo good, I have a separate subdirectory for all his stuff. And, if all you want is the track, use Microsoft MovieMaker and cut out the beginning if you're using windows (Mac I don't know). I do that, but still keep the original for reference. This is a really great idea. The call and response between two guitar players. The local blues jam I play at sometimes is only once a month. There are so many players that this type of format is used a lot. You need to be able to listen to what the other guy's doing, key off it, and come up with something that FITS. That is a lot harder than just playing all by yourself. And IF you can do it, you'll not only earn the respect of the other players... you be asked to play along a lot. Some of the best times I have is playing with another guy... watching his face when I play something that really gels with what he's doing. And, I know I got the same look on my face when he plays. Then there's always the times you are playing first... and someone ELSE has to try a make his part fit yours. I even record backing tracks playing half the time like he did, then play it back and fit things in. It really makes you think on the fly.
👍
0:45 scared the shit out of me, thought my screen was broken
absolutely brilliant concept & lesson Griff ! although my skill* set is just slightly above ,..... say Jeff Beck - that was excellent for demonstrating blues 'feel'

Where can I get the backing track to practice with Griff?

Thanks, but some spaces are too short!
❤️
jesus christ griff ,after listening to this and attempting to follow along, i am ready to throw my guitar out.i actually thought was progressing until the master mashed me
need the backing track louder to keep better track of the chords
he talks less and plays more, actually. do not talk...
