Blues Rhythm Lesson - Octave and Minor 3rd

[Robert]

This lesson features a simple but effective shuffle rhythm. I have often been asked how I play this, so hopefully this clears it up.

Very, very cool! I'm always looking for more rhythm patterns since I'm not very good at them and don't practice them nearly enough. When I hear one that sounds that good and interesting, I'll actually use it.

Nice lesson, Robert. A simple shuffle that I haven't played before. I think I've played all around it, however!
It translates well to my finger picking style, too.

Whew - the Bender is sounding great here! Nice shuffle, too, of course...

I think there's a pill for that. :poke

"Now that's funny, I don't care who you are!" (what Fretter coined that line, anyone remember - haven't heard it in a long time...)
