John, youza da bluz man
The melody of the notes is what expresses the art of music . 🙂 6stringerPete
It really is all about ”melody”. The melody comes from a language from our heart. Our heart is the muscle in music harmony. The melody is the sweetness that it pumps into our musical thoughts on the fretboard. 🙂 6 stringer Pete

Hi John That is full of blues flavour and very nicely played. I would say in constructive criticism that you have ‘over played’ a little and that some phrased rests would improve the feel and bring a bit more tension and resolve.

Sounds great JohnB.. BBKing slow blues is always fun to practice ,,so much feel in each note and it doesn’t have to be all over the fret board.. so you know, I watched again (second time listening to Brian explain in the videos EP327..I am done practicing for tonight but really enjoyed the lesson.. old blues slow blues quick blues..major and minor..it’s all right here in these lessons! good playing!

John
“I need your playing so bad” 😉
I think it´s the Gary Moore version.
This melody offers a lot of feeling and
this is what you express perfectly.
Thumbs up.Blue

No video required John. Your touch, feel and tone is all that’s needed to capture the ears attention…nicely done.

hey John, nice tribute to one of the best 8-bar solos ever, Peter Green’s Need Your Love So Much.
someone mentioned leaving more spaces, letting it breathe. I think you did a good job on that, but listening to Peter Green is a master class in spacing and phrasing and taking your time.
It’s like a singer has to stop and take a breath, guitarists should do that more often.
Great job, thanks -
