          Fantastic Bob
          You created a soulful, bluesy vibe very reminiscent of Dicky Betts’ solo on Statesboro Blues. Thought you were gonna go full Ted Nugent on us! Well done.

                Excellent work Bob, you kept up with that quicker tempo really good. The phrases are getting tighter and more expressive. Well done.

                Go slow and practice correct technique, and your abilities will dramatically improve.

                  Great playing.
                  Nice improv.
                  Quist BT are always fun to play.

                    Good work Bob, clean and soulful. Staying in one area is helpful.

                              Great job of winging it, Bob. You’d have them out on the dance floor with this blues rocker.

                                Definitely not boring! You laid down some great licks in there, all while remaining totally in control. Well played, Bob!

                                  Nice phrasing, each verse has a good arc. Lots of catchy, peppy licks there. Well played.

                                    Simply amazing, played like a pro, Bob. I enjoyed that very much, it sounded like one of the “old” rockers on the radio!

                                      That rocked, solid rocking the whole duration. I just sat back and enjoyed the ride. 👏Bravo
