Part of my guitar playing is just using melody notes that pop out of now where, but seems to have a connection with my emotional state of mind.
This is an example of my playing what I mean.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

beautifully played; lots of chord tones, notes from the chords, always sound melodic, and your phrasing and choice of notes certainly expresses emotion. Very smooth and mellow and relaxing. Your fingers and mind and heart all working together to create beautiful music. I’ve spent countless hours doing just that, noodling along to backing tracks. Well done Pete.

Thank you for your kind words, Canada Moose. Wondering if you ever made Moose sausage?

I think it was SRV who was talking about his playing and said something like, ” because I don’t read music, I find that when I try to understand what I play or how I play it then I lose the essence of what is in my heart and soul”.
Another great once said “I am playing all the correct notes but not necessarily in the correct order”.
I think what both are saying is that feelings are a major factor to how our playing Sounds, personally I think once we find the ability to listen to ourselves when we play that is when feeling comes to the mix. It’s a complicated game this guitaring lark at times eh...Billy..

Steve one thing (well 2 things) you are able to show your feelings with video and of course with the guitar. Something I think I should take the time to learn. I have an Android phone that takes video.
Any advice how to use it? Send me a PM. Thanks.The melody of the notes is what expresses the art of music . 🙂 6stringerPete
