        Hi folks,

        Another YT algorithm suggestion led me to this one.

        There have been quite a few EPs I’ve discovered that way that I probably would never have otherwise.

        Fair bit of work in this one as there always is with a standalone rhythm and lead piece but I’m pretty happy with how it’s turned out.

        Hope you enjoy it and thanks for listening.

        Liam.

          Nice one Liam. You found another lesson I haven’t seen. I just reviewed it and it’s amazing how many things overlap from other lessons that I have seen such that it all makes a tone of sense now and is much easier to absorb quickly. I hope the same is happening for you as well.

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

            This is very nicely done Liam and I liked the control you have playing those rhythm parts muting and cutting of extraneous rings at all the appropriate spots. Playing rhythm is tough that way and making standalone electric guitar playing sound good is never easy, at least, not for me. You did brilliantly with that.

                Nice playing Liam! This was a “stand alone” lesson Brian put out without a jamtrack. It was fun to play and it might be cool to add some rhythm, bass and drums. hmmmm. 🎸

                  I love these stand alone rhythm/leads… sounds gnarly (cool). Well played. There ain’t nowhere to hide when doing these types of arrangements. Keep ’em coming. Always a pleasure.

                    These “naked” pieces, when you’re alone with your guitar and you can’t hide yourself behind a backing track, they are the most difficult but also very rewarding to play. You did a great job wit your rendition, Liam, brilliantly played.

                      Excellent performance Liam!!!No backing track makes such lessons really challenging but your rhythm is perfect throughout the whole piece so the lead parts fit perfectly!I didn’t know this lesson but you piqued my interest 😍🥰😍🥰
