[@nielsanderson4926]

Nice Mr.Fignola ,I really love the way you are going about the thing :" I don't know the word for it, but in Dutch we say :" Spelenderwijs "! Which is wonderful !! Keep Up the good work!!?? I teach myself and these kind of exercises give people A beautiful insight in the blues, since most guys/girls Don't even know how to play A 12 bar blues Or play the melodyline on it

when you do this lesson twice it gets better :)

[@philc8622]

Hi, Thanks so much for this. Very generous. If only KZbin had existed 50 years ago when I was getting started on guitar ... Could I ask a question about the 'backing' (bass & drums) you are using... how is that generated? It would be useful to have something cool and jazzy that would work in various keys/chord progressions that I could jam along to for practicing. I think you demonstrated really well here the importance of leaving space in solos. That is so much easier to do if 'something' is happening in the background whilst you are not playing. It would be great to have a 'generator' that came with pre-programmed rhythms that could also be modified for jazz and blues. Don't know if such a thing exists (most things seems to be geared towards 'hip hop' beats, without a bass option).

[@petemetcalfe4385]

In Bb Blues, when we sub in D-7G7 before C- how about D-7b5 as it's 2?

[@signalphx]

How can I find this course ? It’s outstanding and I hope I can see it all. Thanks

[@superalbertos550]

I was able to follow almos all, but towards the end I found confusing the third round of chords. Are there transcripts anywhere?

[@JSDJerry]

Thanks for posting. Easy to follow at beginning. Does your course include pdfs?

[@sylwestersosniak220]

🙂

[@patrickblay7684]

Thank you Frank for this magnificent course. I consider myself as a beginner and would like to know how you choose or pick up the 3 first notes in the beginning of the video : Db, Bb and G and then choose the chords Bb7, Eb7, F7 ? Is it because Db is the b3 of Bb7 , Bb the P5 of Eb7 and G the M2 of F7 or it has nothing to do with that ? Thank you for your Generosity.

[@czgibson3086]

In case Frank doesn't see your message: Yes, all of that. The three notes he chose fit every chord, performing different functions as the chord changes. For example, the Db is the b3 of Bb7, then it's the b7 in Eb7, then it's the #5 (or b13) in F7. But beyond all of that, he most likely chose them because they sound good. Analysing chord tones can explain why and how melodic lines fit the harmony, but in general, if it sounds good, it is good.

[@itsuptome1962]

Do have a PDF of movable chord shapes?
