A sample lesson from early in the new blues course. It's about using syncopation to create some funky blues riffs and grooves.

  • Cheers Bernie, that's great to hear, and there's plenty more where that came from.

  • Thanks, Patrick!
    This 'ol rocker from the 80s needs vids like this while transitioning to CBG.
    Although I've incorporated syncopation in my technique, this really helps.
  • Thankyou Gentleman. I've put a lot of work into the site and both courses. It's great to see that it's helping.

  • Good stuff Pat, For you new people looking to learn...this is the site to take the time to look at, Pat offesr much instruction, song lyrics...and much more.

  • I highly Recommend Patrick's course.  I have Kenny Lee's stuff, Red Dog's, etc... All good stuff.  

    Patrick's approach is different... it's truly a course, it's like a class... worksheets, video's, etc.  Well worth the investment.   

  • Good work!

  • Brass...ahhhh. That explains the sweet sustain. Copper is way lighter, requires a deft touch.
  • Cheers Ron. It's actually a brass slide, weighs a ton but you get a mean vibrato with it. I've not tried copper, will soon though, cheers.

  • Patrick,

    Nice lesson. You have a nice, easy way of explanation. Good luck with the course; lots of people should find this useful. Looks like you are using a copper slide; aside from bone, copper is my favorite for getting that grind. And cheap at the DIY plumbing supplies...
