IMPROVISING ON EP 627 MAJOR AND MINOR TRIADS!!!

[Helen Lazaridou]

Hello my dearest AMers ♥️ 💖 💓
This lesson wasn’t that popular but it intrigued me and I set myself the challenge to play different triads from Brian,on strings 2,3,4 rather than 1,2,3,!
I hope you like my version!

Oh, I remember that lesson well. I played it so many times over and over due to the addictive sound of the progression. You have a very unique take on it that changes the overall vibe.

The triads in the original version were mainly on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd strings, so do you mean the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th string triads? Either way, your improv on it came out real good, so you can be proud of that result. Plus you made me review that composition again.

Root note patterns >>> CAGED shapes >>> TRIAD'S. Just put in the work and watch your guitar skills soar.

You are absolutely right!!!!How silly of me!!!I counted them upside down!How embarrassing 🤩🤩🤩

[Michael Krailo]

It’s alright, I knew what you meant to say. Great improv.

Great to hear you again. This was really sweet and your tone is engaging. Your chording (rhythm) compliments your lead masterfully. (No easy task). Thanks for sharing. It’s always a pleasure and thank you for your continued inspiration. Keep on!!! 🎸

This is outstanding Helen. You definitely know how to create beautiful melodic lines and phrasing, one of your best! Also your tone and quality recording here is pristine. Are you recording on your phone, through an interface, DAW, live through a mic? I’d be interested to know. All the best! 😎🎸😎

[Helen Lazaridou]

Thank you so much dear Garry 😘
I don’t record with my phone!I use a laptop and Daw Cubase!I follow Geoff’s method so I use my amp and connect it to the sound card!
I’m totally ignorant of tones and stuff like that🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Geoff]

Well its been a little while since I last heard you play so I am really glad to see you back again.

You haven’t lost your touch at all and this sounds beautiful. As always, you are very creative and i always enjoy hearing you put your own ideas on Brian’s lessons 😎

This was very well played Helen. I’m just beginning to experiment with triads but you seem to have it down beautifully. I love the melody and your tone.

Dearest Helen – it’s been quite a while since we last spoke – SORRY 🥰🥰😘😘. I’ll send you a message privately to let you know how things are going 😍😍

Regarding your performance here – WOW, WOW, WOW 😲😲 Such delicate touches and feeling you put into this – your timing, tone and precision were all professional standard 👍. You’ve performed some excellent tunes and songs in the past, but this one is outstanding – I’m seriously impressed 👏👏👏

As always, lots of love – and speak soon ♥️♥️♥️

Great rendition Helen! Loved your creativity, reinterpreting the original piece in a different and beautiful way!
It’s definitely the main goal of the Brian’s lessons, being able to create something of your own, and you definitely has hit the target.
Delicate and soulful touch on your guitar, very enjoyable melodies and great tone!
