I love this video. It is one of the best I've seen on this topic. I have seen countless other videos but you explain it the best. I like your keeping it simple approach. I just want to pick up my guitar and play by myself to relieve stress. Craig Ewinger

Blue is the best teacher on KZbin. I have been watching videos for years on KZbin. Finally found the best. There's no need to go anywhere else.

Blue playing the blues. Match made in Heaven - great video as usual - keep them coming

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Thanks Bb!!

[@LeeFKoch]

Thanks Blue! I've watched tons of videos on how to play the blues mixing rhythm and solo, but none of them ever broke it down measure by measure making specific suggestions of when to play the solo and how to move back and forth between solo and chords. So, I found this video very helpful!

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Glad to hear it! Thank you!!

I’ve been self taught for 5 years. It’s hard for me to find the person I can learn from. This cat is everything and more form my playing. Perfect speed as I can play alone now. Still biff’n a few notes but enjoying the new lite! 😮 At 67 I gotta get with it man.

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Thanks Rocky! We are all "biff'n" some notes, sometimes. 🤣

Great lesson- can you do a video on turn arounds maybe a few different ones and then same ones in different keys. Thanks. Have bought both your books. Appreciate the help

[@georgepackham468]

Hey Blue great acoustic blues lesson. If you do another one could you do one without the shuffle and with a few more licks thanks George Cornwall Uk.

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Hi George, thanks! Good suggestion, I might be able to do that if this video does well. You can also replace the shuffle at the beginning by playing an E or E7 chord, similar to how I used A7 in bars 5-6.

[@georgepackham468]

Hi Blue thank you for youre quick reply. I noticed in youre video a westie what name and what gender, We have a 4 year old yorkshire terrier called Molly. Speak soon George.

Thanks Sherman! I thought you'd like that cameo.

[@retiredguyadventures6211]

Excellent lesson! It's kinda right where I'm at trying to combine chords and riffs over a 12 bar blues. Memorizing more 2 bar riffs would be helpful... Thank you!

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Cool, great to hear!

[@julielocke-balish1707]

Great video.. I wonder if there is a way to use a metronome or jam track to practice getting back to the chord on time. My problem is I don’t hear it in my head when to get back to the chord on time.

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Definitely using a jam track will help. Try a simple jam track that's just I to IV back and forth to start. Or a 12 bar form. Some jam tracks on YT show you when the chord changes.

[@rodsimonson9175]

Hey Blue, great video. I was look at tab on your website. I was looking for the key change in the Trooper song, we're here for a good time, not a long time. The key change was not there. What is happening at the key change, what key does the song go to? What's the chord progression? Thanks

[@peterodemwingie1490]

Wonderful 👍🏽👍🏽

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Thank you 👍

[@robmiller3464]

Great lesson and makes good logic. What guitar are you playing?

[@AndrewRobertson-h8g]

Hi Blue, just discovered your site, on holiday actually, and had some light bulb moments. thank you . There is one thing... or should i say a load of things I am struggling with but one thing I have noted is that I can not get correct is the timing or duration of my solos. I know I want them to last for two bars but cant really get the timing in. Dont know if that is clear..... Any suggestions or tips !!!

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Thank you! Practice with a jam track with a simple 2 chord progression. Try hearing the chord changes as you solo. Then try aiming your phrases for the roots of the chords as they change. That way your ear gets used to hearing the changes and you can always know where you are in the song form.

[@davidzaharik5408]

Fabulous post!! I get lost during the # of beats in the solo though. Hint?

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Thanks David, That's common. Keep you two bar solo real simple and try playing to a jam track so you can hear when the chord change happens.

[@jeffro.]

Good video, Blue! I mostly play my acoustic-- I've got it on a stand, so I can pick it up any time to play it. That helps a lot, since I don't have to get it out of a case. I practice all my stuff on it. I'm signed up with a guy who teaches improv & theory, but I still like your videos. I think I've seen all of them! Keep it up! 👍 👌

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Cool thanks! Always a good idea to have the guitar handy so if we pick it up more often

[@flylippfantom8425]

I'm just kidding. But, it wasn't until I learn to play the acoustic guitar blues that feel I'm actually making music rather than just another song but thank you for posting this

[@JosSae2]

Which guitar do you play?

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

The guitar is L'Arrivee. Very good acoustic guitars. The one in this video is an OM. I also have a dreadnought from them.

[@jimmyquek6536]

teach more acoustic lessons (open chords, solos)

[@GuitarLessonsVancouver]

Hi Jimmy I would like to make more acoustic lessons. They haven't done as well on KZbin in terms of views but maybe I'll try again. Things might have changes now I have more subscribers

[@garysanz8258]
