I´d rather go blind solo

[bluesheki]

A nice weekend to all members,
a long time ago i set myself the goal of being able to play the solo of i´d rather go blind. Well that was my first attempt. It’s far from perfect, some tones or bends sound a bit strange, but as i said, that was my first attempt. I will work on it and keep you up-to-date.

Sweet playing! This ties in nicely with this weeks rhythm lesson.

Loved it Blue. Maybe a little more sustain as if your voice is holding the note. A few places it stopped too quick. You tackled a really great song. Did you have any music to follow or did you do all this by ear. Your really good and I enjoy listening to everything you play.

Also one of my favorite blues songs and leads. I have been working on it also, but have a long ways to go.
I really like your version. I like the way you start slow and build toward the end. It’s played with great feel and emotion, and very smooth playing and phrasing.
Always been a fan of your playing. This is very good.

Blue,
Nice…Articulate, smooth and played with good soul and vibrato!
Don’t know that you need to change anything…

Played with great touch and feeling and that’s what it’s all about Blue. Top performance and ‘Wow’ first take, even better. All the best!

I can only echo what everbody else is saying. That sounded great.

[Guido Clericus Vagans]

Great solo! Tone, timing, bendings and vibratos in my opinion (but I’m not alone I see) are awesome! Brilliant performance!

You nailed it – again. I just started electric guitar (literally a week ago). Been playing figerstyle acoustic. I’ve watched and listened to this 20 times. Hope I can get there.
Thanks.

Very nice! I think you got the feel of the song.
Is there any particular lesson that you applied to this?
