Hi John - good to hear your slow blues. You show good use of spaces and like Bill says, timing on slow blues isabput patience. We get so used to playing through when up tempo, I have to keep reminding myself in slow blues its as much about space and anticipation as it is about playing notes - and this is for both the player and the listener. I think you did really well here.

thanks

Some good moments here John. I especially like the long note @90, the build up @163 and the move up the harp @220. Working on your 3rd pos vocabulary will pay big dividends when coupled with your expressive tones!

for me slow blues is hard ,you got all that feeling trying to get out, but you gotta be so patient
you did good, you took your time, i could feel it, from one learner to another, id be willing to bet if you kept playing this song, and leaned on the 3rd pos blues scale for a while it would start showing up in the tune .
