Amazing! This is 'The Blues' as its supposed to be ... every single note and (just as importantly) even the spaces, convey the right amount of tension, surprise and attention-grabbing variation across the verses to make it so. All the messages are there. If, one day, I could get do something even half as good ... I'd be a real happy bunny! Wake-up call listening to this one, thanks.

I always found this BT very hard to play with, it's really really slow, but you put just the right amount of energy into it. 335 + BJ + smart bends: perfect! :clap:

Absolutely - so well put. Though I'll take your "half as well" and raise it to a quarter as well! :big_smile:

Yes - a horribly difficult BT to use as so little happens on it. So 100% of the onus on creating interest lands on the guitarist - and finds most of us wanting - or in my case finds me wanting another backing track. In this case though the onus lands on the right guitarist and is a great success. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Right now I feel like something a little faster songs but still feel that you have done well with getting to the solo, as usual. You have a lot of blues in your blood, you. Natural Talent I firmly believe.
You get......... :clap: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Sweet! This sounds like a pretty tough BT to play to. Makes the guitar step up. Nice job on this one. :clap: :thumbsup:
