Request: Lessons to play with a looper pedal

[Robotman]

Hi there.

I was wondering if Brian could do a few lessons using looper pedals.

Thanks.

ep266 has a nice groove rhythm 3 chord part I’ve looped it and it works for me when I’m too lazy to mess with backing tracks

A while back I started making a list of Brian’s lessons that lend themselves to easy looping. A lot of “professional” loopers go for songs with just 2 chords, and maybe phrases that are 4 or 8 bars long. You can loop a 12-bar blues song, but by the time you build the strum track, shuffle track, bass line, etc, it becomes a pretty long song. Here’s the list I came up with:

EP045/46 – Jam w Yourself – (I looped it for a monthly challenge)
EP047/48 – acoustic strum/lead loop
EP064 – Warren Haynes – 2 chord
EP069 – Slow Minor Groove – try some licks from EP155
EP087 – Slow Groove Vamp – 2 chord
EP059 – Mark Knopfler Style
EP067 – Blues Rock – has good repeating chord pattern
EP110 – Mark Knopfler 2nd lesson
EP142 – Slow Groove – has 3 parts
EP146 – 2 Chord Jam
EP174 – Lovely Lisa

Watch how Hvetter builds his loops, turning them on and off during the song:

I loved to play Ep001-003 on the looper. One lesson is about the rythm, the other two is the lead part
But I actually use the looper for all the lessons. Just learn to play the rythm by yourself, or use litle licks from the leadpart to flair up your rythm play

Thanks Sunjamr. That looks quite complex..
