I so appreciated when Dave Tauber was being interviewed about jams how he said guys or GALS. 

I would choose him to play with first. :)

turn-arounds

Hallo all,

I seem to do some progress since visiting this site, but still have big problems regarding the turn-arounds, because after that fine V chord, I gently go down to IV, slip back to home in I and then the tension increases, I usually think too much of things ahead and miss the beat in that buesy  11th bar I actually love so much when played by others. The more I think of it, the worse it gets. continue reading...

Why do you think the A harmonica is most used in the blues?

That's what David says and I believe him and yet...

I've been zipping through all the lectures here playing along with my baritone uke and guitar when I can't keep up with the harmonica stuff (yet) to get an overview, which has been a great education on the blues for any instrument I think. I've found some important beginner ideas and instructions for the harmonica for myself pretty far along in the lessons so I'm really glad I'm doing it.   continue reading...

Hello,

can somebody give me a suggestion on where to down-load a decent blues harp sound font in .sf2 format?

There are probably plenty on the web, but why should I not ask for your kind advice before searching myself?

 

Thank you very much,

Razvan

David mentioned that someone he knows has a circle of fifths watch and that made me think... I wonder if they have circle of fifth clocks? They DO!

Recognizing the key of a song

Hallo all,

actually I first tought to put this question directly to David, our lead instructor, but he is busy enough and the question is much too simple. On the other hand, he might not even be aware of how he is doing this himself as a profesional musician, because he most probably does this instinctively. Myself I feel quite lost at this task.

But now the question: how do I recognise in which key a song (blues OR NOT) is played in? Quite obvious for most pros, isn't it? continue reading...

Sharon Barrett's progress

I was surprised to hear Sharon was jamming with you on the Halloween project. Does she intend to continue her studies? I was following her lessons. In any event I hope she continues play. Having one of the best instructors on the planet in her kitchen is a plus.
