Looks awesome. A good level to challenge me mightily with getting the licks down, but do-able enough for me to shoot for. Thanks!
I made a new video lesson.
http://www.dolphinstreet.com/guitar_.../lesson-60.php
It's the song "Big Legged Woman". Fun to play.
Let me know what you think of this lesson. I'll put up Tabs on my site later this week when I have time.

Robert, can ya help me understand something or correct me..
Obviously my ears and playing is not at any good level, but I try..
I really like this lesson and I am learning it quicker than I thought..
When I hear you play it, it sounds great.. and in C
I went with the title and looked up Freddy King playing it on Youtube.
Here is when I get confused.. "to me" listening to this, he is playing in C# or Dflat whichever...
or at least thats all I can add in blues scale with them while they are playing... if I try to play something in C scale as the lesson is in.. it just sounds OFF "to me" .. did I lose you?
Can ya let me know if he actually is playing this in C and I have more problems than I thought... or did you just decide on C instead of C#? for the lesson?
Sorry, I get confused.. I know you can change any song into any key..
But I took it as that's what Freddy plays this in..
does he?
is it my ears?
And again...thanks for a great lesson in any key!!
Please have a listen..

Nice one Robert!
Nice use of the looper as well.
I've heard what you've called "barring two notes with one finger" a
roll over
as in roll your finger over to the next string.
Because there is often a little rolling down of the finger. I was very happy when I first learned this move.
I pick a moon dog.
Justa, it's quite possible that old video recordings don't play back in exactly the same speed as during the moment when it was recorded, which would throw the pitch off slightly. It's also possible their instruments are not tuned in 440 Hz. Who knows.
If you want to play along to the video, you'd have to retune your guitar to match their pitch. That way you could stay playing in C, even though they sound like they are playing in C#.
Hope this makes sense.

I take it that he does play it in C then... and yeah that kinda makes sense..Originally Posted by Robert
Didn't think about the quality messing up in the recording itself..
and C# aint to far away huh.. wasn't sure if you was gonna tell me to try a certain scale or not...
quality at time of recording works for me..
I was more worried I can't HEAR sheeet right to tell the truth..
And thought the C was suppose to sound right playing along with them..
I know I can't play a note..
I just didn't want to find out I can't hear one to..
I don't understand the 440 thing.. I thought they all was.. so much to learn!
there is differences in 440 tunings? I mean the same C etc.. not drop d etc..
that's probably for another thread..lol
Add this one to your blues DVD.. with the whole thing..
Great lesson within grasp of us new guys...
