        Hello,
        here my first little Blues at AM – nice, but a bit boring. I intentially chose such an easy one without own Alteration or Improvisation. The only amendment is, to follow the lick with change to step IV sometimes.

          Nice one, Dieter. That’s a classic lesson that everyone should learn. Now you are ready to try some improv.

            thank you Steve,
            my actual aim is to extend the Basics and to get a accumulated Lick-Collection memorised. Improvisation works not yet automatically and still needs to much thinking. And I want to loose of noodle the Scales up and down. I hope better Improvisation will on the Long run be the result of my actual efforts. Patience has always been my affair.

              Nicely done. Sounded great and looks like great practice. I think I need to save this lesson to my ‘lessons to learn’ group.

                Really great exercise to practicing the blues. Of course it’s too easy for you but Thanks Dieter for posting it, I have to recheck it a.s.a.p.

                    Hello John,
                    as my Webcam is an acoustic disaster, I m using now for recording my small Canon Powershot G7X on a small tripod.
