Posted Mon, 05/07/2018 - 16:09 by David Barrett Admin
David Barrett Admin's picture

This Repertoire Builder song "Perfect Shade of Blue" does not teach you any new techniques, but places into context what you've worked hard to learn in Bending and Tongue Blocking studies 4 (after LOA-L5). This song will continue to work these techniques, along with giving you a fun song to play that contains valuable lick vocabulary for your improvising down the road. This study is for upper-intermediate skill level players. You'll need a C Harmonica for this study.
