        Hi everyone,

        Another superb standalone from the archives.

        I’ve only been getting around 45 mins of guitar playing through headphones first thing in the morning so I’ve been using that to get this one down.

        Took about 3 weeks.

        Not as slick as Brian of course but I’m pretty happy with where I’m at with it.

        Hope you enjoy it and I urge you to check and learn the lesson for yourself.

        Liam.

                You managed to get a mean bluesy sound that had some real character. Fine playing and all the work paid off.

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

                  Great lesson. It’s got that T-bone Walker vibe to it but then gets all down and dirty. This is right up my ally, love these stand alone blues lessons, this is no exception. Well played. I find it takes a long time to ‘smooth’ things out and play ’em seamlessly. I am a big Liam fan and enjoy your guitar journey. If I am ever in the UK I am coming for a visit. Be well!!

                      *GREAT* tone with that guitar and nice use of dynamics

                          Sounds really, really good. My very favorite pieces on AM are Brian’s standalone (no accompaniment) pieces. Both acoustic and electric. Way to go, Liam!!
