        Hi all,

        Again a wonderful song! I played it a bit slower..Some parts need some more speed , like the transition on the 3d bar from the F-7 chord to the C-chord with added note ( I find this quite a tough one 🙂

          Sounds pretty good Konk. I’m just working on the same lesson but only got through the first part. If I had a suggestion it would be to go back and break the lesson up into smaller chunks and work them until the muscle memory kicks in. I’m finding the lick at bar 8 to be a bit awkward. I think this is a great lesson because once learned, these licks will be very useful in many other situations.

            I found this EP096 challenging. I second the suggestion of breaking it into smaller parts. I had to practice each mini section super slow over and over. Keep up the good work!
